authorised representative of the Store.
3. Contract Formation, Electronic Records & Signature

admissible as evidence under UAE law. Emails, order confirmations, and payment records
constitute binding contractual records between you and the Store.

4.3 Visual Variations: Due to device display settings, image editing, lighting, batch variations and
manufacturer updates to packaging or labelling, the actual product delivered may vary slightly in
colour, texture, packaging design, labelling, or other non-material attributes. Such minor variations
are not, by themselves, evidence of misdescription where the product remains substantially
consistent with the stated description and core features.
4.4 Device & Perception Differences: Differences in colour perception and appearance resulting
from your screen settings (resolution, brightness, colour profile) are outside our control and do not
constitute grounds for non-conformity claims unless the product is materially different from its

missing features\/components, damaged, unsafe or defective), you retain the statutory rights and
remedies under UAE law (including repair, replacement or refund as applicable). You should contact
Customer Support immediately and follow the returns procedure.

packaging changes, or device display variances, provided the finished product complies materially
with its description.
