Customisation

1.21 Any customisable features on bubblegumballoons.com and associated websites are designed to be a representation. Bubblegum Balloons reserve the right for the creative license over its products and will provide personalisation in the most effective way for the size, shape and layout of the chosen product. Please note that unless otherwise specified on the balloon example, the only message that will arrive on your balloon is that in which you have typed and provided to us. No refunds, discounts or compensation will be available for the personalisation style differing from that shown within the customise box or customer errors.


Delivery & Collection

1.22 Bubblegum Balloons offer an 8 am - 8 pm or a pre-2 pm delivery service via DPD on your nominated day. If your balloon is for a special occasion we recommend having it delivered the day prior. Due to the current circumstances, courier companies are overwhelmed and cannot 100% guarantee nominated day delivery, therefore we recommend selecting delivery of the balloons for the day prior to account for any delays. 

1.23 Our Click+ range is available for delivery within a set radius of Bubblegum Balloons, GU14 0NR. Due to the balloon sizes & fragility, they require one of our in-house Bubblegum Drivers to deliver them to you with the delivery fee reflecting this service. 

1.24 If a collection is requested and the balloons are not picked up on the desired date, we are unable to provide a refund. If the balloons have begun to deflate, you will be charged for the reinflation. This is due to the balloons being perishable and personalised and therefore unusable for another customer. 


Stock Restrictions

1.25 With the current climate across the globe, international suppliers are struggling to work within the restrictions put in place. Whilst we're working to ensure your products are exactly as advertised, there may be cases where very small amendments are made to the bunch, or the balloon, that you receive. Changes to the style of the bunch will only be made if the Bubblegum Creative Team are happy with the overall look and feel of the bunch and that it matches as close as possible to the one ordered. If there are any changes that need to be made to your order which completely change the aesthetic of the bunch ordered, our Online Sales Team will contact you with alternatives.


Cancellation & Changes To Your Order

1.26 Bubblegum Balloons will always try and be accommodating to cancellations and changes to orders where possible. If you have any essential changes that need to be made to your order, we're able to accommodate these requests within an hour of the order being placed. If you need to cancel your order, we need a minimum of 5 working days prior to your order being due for delivery to make these amendments and depending on the request there may be an additional charge.

1.27 If amendments to the delivery address are required, we require this information 2 working days prior to the delivery date. Please email or call us with the changes - [email protected] / 01252626697. If the item has been dispatched, any changes to the delivery address will incur a 24-hour delay on delivery.


Exchanges, Refunds and Returns

1.28 We are unable to accept returns of inflated and personalised orders. Due to their nature, they are perishable and individually created for each customer, therefore, cannot be reused or resold. If your items are faulty this does not affect your statutory rights.

1.29 Due to the perishable nature of our products, sometimes they may arrive not looking as intended. All of our balloons are assembled by an incredibly dedicated and passionate team who don't allow any items to leave our studio unless they are absolutely perfect. Should your balloons end up damaged in transit, please email us a picture of your product within 24 hours of its arrival and we'll do all we can to rectify it. 

1.30 If part of your order arrives deflated we will offer to send a replacement for this part of the order if appropriate; or alternatively we will issue a refund for the deflated balloon. 

1.31 We are unable to issue discounts or refunds if an image of the faulty item isn't provided within 24 hours of arrival. 


Data Protection

1.40 We are unable to discuss orders of any nature with the recipient of the items if they are not billable customers. For any queries regarding the order you've received, please have the billable customer get in contact with us.

1.41 We may process your personal information for our legitimate business interests. ‘Legitimate Interests’ means the interests of our company in conducting and managing our business to enable us to give you the best service/products and the best and most secure experience. It can and does also apply to processing which is in your interest too. Processing for our legitimate interests may include processing for the purposes of (i) fraud prevention and compliance; (ii) certain direct marketing and promotional activities; (iii) the provision and operation of referral marketing programmes; (iv) network and information systems security; (v) data analytics; (vi) enhancing, modifying or improving our service; (vii) identifying usage trends, or (viii) determining the effectiveness of promotional campaigns or advertising. In connection with the above activities, we may share your personal information with trusted suppliers who assist us in our data processing activities. Bubblegum Balloons does not sell customer information or data to any third party supplier. Our legitimate business interests do not automatically override your interests - we will not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted by law). You have the right to object to this processing if you wish and if you wish to do so please contact [email protected].
