Terms & Conditions
Last Updated: August 01, 20261. Introduction
Welcome to Allum ("Allum," "we," "our," or "us"). These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between Allum and every individual, business entity, visitor, customer or user ("you," "your," or "Customer") who accesses, browses, registers on, purchases from or otherwise uses our website, mobile application or any related digital platforms, products, features, content or services (collectively referred to as the "Services").
These Terms are designed to establish a clear understanding of the rights, responsibilities, obligations and limitations applicable to both Allum and its users. They govern every interaction with our Services, including but not limited to browsing products, creating an account, placing orders, making payments, participating in promotional campaigns, submitting reviews, communicating with customer support and accessing any content or features made available by Allum.
By accessing or using any part of our Services, you confirm that you have carefully read, understood and agreed to comply with these Terms, as well as all other policies published by Allum, including but not limited to our Privacy Policy, Shipping Policy, Return & Refund Policy, Exchange Policy, Cancellation Policy, Cookie Policy and any additional guidelines or legal notices that may be published from time to time. These documents collectively form an integral part of this agreement.
If you do not agree with any provision contained within these Terms or any related policy, you must immediately discontinue the use of our Services. Continued access to or use of the Services after any updates or modifications to these Terms shall constitute your acceptance of the revised Terms.
Allum reserves the sole and absolute right to modify, amend, update, suspend, replace or discontinue any part of these Terms, our Services, website functionality, products, pricing, promotional offers or policies at any time and without prior notice, except where applicable law requires otherwise. While we may notify users of significant changes through our website, email or other communication channels, it remains your responsibility to periodically review these Terms to stay informed of any updates.
Nothing contained within these Terms shall be interpreted as creating any partnership, joint venture, agency relationship, employment relationship, franchise or other legal association between you and Allum. Your use of the Services is solely as an independent customer or visitor.
These Terms apply equally to all users regardless of whether they access our Services as guests or registered account holders. Certain products, services, promotions, memberships or features may be governed by additional terms and conditions, which shall apply alongside these Terms. In the event of any conflict, the specific terms applicable to that particular product or service shall prevail to the extent of such conflict.
You acknowledge and agree that Allum operates as an online fashion and lifestyle platform and that product availability, pricing, promotional campaigns, inventory levels, service features, delivery timelines and other operational aspects may change from time to time based on business requirements, supplier availability, seasonal collections, legal obligations, technological improvements or unforeseen circumstances.

If you are accessing or using the Services on behalf of a company, organization, partnership or any other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you possess the legal authority to bind such entity to these Terms. In such cases, references to "you" shall include both the individual acting on behalf of the entity and the entity itself. If you lack such authority, you must not use the Services on behalf of that organization.
You acknowledge that Allum reserves the exclusive right to determine eligibility for access to specific Services, products, promotional campaigns, loyalty programs, memberships or special features. Certain Services may require additional agreements, identity verification, eligibility requirements or compliance with specific terms before access is granted.
You further agree that your acceptance of these Terms applies to all current and future features, products, services, technologies, applications, websites, subdomains, digital platforms, mobile applications, APIs, promotional campaigns, loyalty programs and any other offerings introduced by Allum, unless separate terms expressly govern such offerings.

Nothing contained within these Terms shall be interpreted as creating any partnership, joint venture, agency, employment, franchise, fiduciary or similar legal relationship between you and Allum.

You further agree that these Terms shall remain binding upon you for as long as you access or use any part of the Services provided by Allum, unless terminated in accordance with the provisions set forth in these Terms.
3. Eligibility
Access to and use of the Services provided by **Allum** is subject to the eligibility requirements set forth in these Terms. By accessing, browsing, registering for an account, purchasing products or otherwise using the Services, you represent and warrant that you satisfy all applicable eligibility criteria and possess the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement under the laws of your jurisdiction.
The Services are intended solely for individuals who are legally capable of entering into enforceable contracts. By using the Services, you confirm that you have attained the minimum legal age required under the laws applicable to your place of residence or that you are accessing the Services under the supervision and consent of a parent or legal guardian where such use is legally permitted.
If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may browse the Services; however, you may not create an account, submit personal information, place an order, complete a purchase or otherwise engage in any transaction without the express supervision and consent of your parent or legal guardian. In such cases, the parent or legal guardian assumes full responsibility for all activities conducted through the account and agrees to be bound by these Terms on behalf of the minor.
If you are accessing the Services on behalf of a company, partnership, organization, institution or any other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you possess the necessary authority to legally bind such entity to these Terms. You further acknowledge that any obligations, liabilities or responsibilities arising under these Terms shall apply both to you individually and to the entity you represent.
You agree that all information provided during registration, checkout, customer support interactions, promotional participation or any other communication with Allum shall be true, accurate, current, complete and not misleading. You further agree to promptly update such information whenever necessary to ensure its continued accuracy. Failure to maintain accurate information may result in delayed orders, failed deliveries, restricted access to the Services, suspension of your account or cancellation of pending transactions.
Allum reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to verify the eligibility, identity, age or authority of any user at any time. Such verification may include requesting government-issued identification, proof of address, payment verification, business documentation or any other information reasonably necessary to comply with legal obligations, prevent fraud, ensure account security or verify ownership of an account. Failure to provide the requested information within the specified timeframe may result in temporary suspension, permanent termination, cancellation of orders or refusal to provide Services.
You shall not access or use the Services if:
- You are prohibited from entering into legally binding agreements under applicable law.
- You have previously been suspended, restricted or permanently banned from using the Services by Allum.
- Your account has been terminated due to fraudulent activity, abuse, policy violations or unlawful conduct.
- You intend to use the Services for any unlawful, deceptive, fraudulent, harmful or unauthorized purpose.
- You provide false, inaccurate, incomplete or misleading information during registration or while using the Services.
- You attempt to impersonate another individual, organization, government authority or business entity without authorization.
Allum reserves the absolute right to determine user eligibility at its sole discretion. Meeting the minimum eligibility requirements does not guarantee uninterrupted access to the Services, acceptance of an order, approval of an account, participation in promotional campaigns or continued availability of any product or feature.
Certain Services, premium features, loyalty programs, promotional offers, memberships, limited-edition collections, business partnerships, affiliate programs or special purchasing opportunities may be subject to additional eligibility requirements. Such requirements may include geographic restrictions, age limitations, purchase history, account verification, payment verification, invitation-only access or other conditions determined by Allum. Where additional eligibility criteria apply, they shall be clearly communicated and shall form part of these Terms.
You acknowledge and agree that eligibility requirements may vary based on your country, state, region or applicable legal jurisdiction. Certain products or Services may not be available in all locations due to legal restrictions, shipping limitations, regulatory requirements, supplier agreements or business decisions. Allum shall not be liable for the unavailability of any product or Service in any particular jurisdiction.
Allum reserves the right, without prior notice and at its sole discretion, to refuse access to the Services, reject registrations, cancel accounts, decline orders, restrict purchases, limit product quantities or terminate user access where it reasonably believes that a user does not satisfy the eligibility requirements, has violated these Terms, has engaged in fraudulent or abusive conduct, poses a security risk or where such action is necessary to comply with applicable laws or protect the legitimate interests of Allum, its customers, partners or employees.
By continuing to use the Services, you represent and warrant that you satisfy all eligibility requirements set forth in these Terms, that all representations made by you are truthful and accurate and that you shall remain responsible for maintaining your eligibility throughout your use of the Services. Any breach of this Section may result in immediate suspension or termination of your account, cancellation of pending orders, forfeiture of promotional benefits and any other remedies available to Allum under these Terms or applicable law.
4. Account Registration and User Accounts
To access certain features of the Services, including but not limited to placing orders, tracking shipments, managing wishlists, saving addresses, participating in promotional programs, receiving personalized recommendations, accessing loyalty benefits or utilizing other account-specific features, you may be required to create and maintain a registered user account ("Account"). Creating an Account is voluntary; however, certain Services may not be available without successful registration.
By registering an Account with Allum, you represent and warrant that all information submitted during the registration process is true, accurate, complete, current and belongs to you or has been lawfully provided with the necessary authorization. This includes, but is not limited to, your name, email address, mobile number, billing information, shipping address, date of birth (where required) and any additional information requested during registration or account verification.
You agree to maintain and promptly update your Account information whenever necessary to ensure that it remains accurate and complete. Failure to provide or maintain accurate information may result in delayed deliveries, unsuccessful transactions, inability to access certain Services, suspension of your Account or cancellation of pending orders.
You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your Account credentials, including your username, password, one-time passwords (OTPs), verification codes, authentication devices and any other security mechanisms associated with your Account. You agree not to disclose your login credentials to any third party or permit any unauthorized individual to access or use your Account.
All activities conducted through your Account shall be deemed to have been performed by you unless otherwise required by applicable law. Accordingly, you accept full responsibility for all purchases, transactions, communications, reviews, submissions and other activities carried out using your Account, regardless of whether such activities were authorized by you. If you suspect or become aware of any unauthorized access, security breach, misuse or compromise of your Account, you must notify Allum immediately through the appropriate customer support channels. Until such notification is received and appropriate action is taken, you remain responsible for activities conducted through your Account.
You agree that Allum may use your registered contact information, including your email address, mobile number or other communication methods, to send transactional communications, order confirmations, shipping updates, security notifications, account verification requests, service announcements, legal notices and other communications necessary for the operation of the Services. Subject to applicable law and your communication preferences, Allum may also send promotional offers, newsletters, product recommendations and marketing communications, from which you may opt out where legally permitted.
Each Account is intended for use by a single individual or authorized legal entity. You agree not to sell, transfer, assign, rent, lease, sublicense, share or otherwise permit another person to use your Account without the prior written consent of Allum. Shared, fraudulent or unauthorized Accounts may be suspended or permanently terminated without notice.
Allum reserves the right to implement identity verification procedures at any time. Such verification may include confirming your email address, verifying your mobile number through OTP authentication, requesting government-issued identification, payment verification, proof of address or any other documentation reasonably necessary to verify your identity, prevent fraud, comply with legal obligations or protect the integrity of the Services. Your failure to successfully complete any required verification process may result in restrictions on your Account or denial of access to certain Services.
You agree not to create multiple Accounts for the purpose of abusing promotional offers, circumventing purchase limits, manipulating loyalty programs, avoiding previous suspensions, engaging in fraudulent activities or otherwise violating these Terms. Allum reserves the right to merge, suspend, restrict or permanently terminate duplicate or fraudulent Accounts at its sole discretion.
You further agree that you shall not:
- Register an Account using false, misleading or fictitious information.
- Impersonate another individual, business, public authority or organization.
- Use another person's email address, phone number, payment method or identity without authorization.
- Create Accounts through automated scripts, bots, scraping tools or any unauthorized means.
- Use the Services to conduct fraudulent, deceptive, unlawful or abusive activities.
- Attempt to bypass account security measures or gain unauthorized access to other user Accounts or Allum systems.
Allum reserves the absolute right to refuse registration, suspend access, impose limitations, require additional verification or permanently terminate any Account where it reasonably believes that:
- The Account contains false or misleading information.
- Fraudulent, suspicious or unauthorized activities have occurred.
- These Terms or applicable laws have been violated.
- The Account poses a security, legal or operational risk.
- Continued access may adversely affect Allum, its customers, partners, employees or business operations.
Termination or suspension of an Account shall not relieve you of any outstanding payment obligations, contractual responsibilities or liabilities incurred before the effective date of such suspension or termination. Allum may also retain certain Account information following termination where required to comply with applicable laws, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, prevent fraud, maintain business records or protect its legitimate legal interests.
You may choose to close your Account at any time by contacting Allum's customer support or by using any account deletion functionality made available through the Services. Closure of your Account does not automatically cancel pending orders, refund completed purchases, remove legal obligations or eliminate records that Allum is required to retain under applicable law.
By creating and maintaining an Account, you acknowledge that your continued access to the Services is a privilege and not a guaranteed right. Allum reserves the right to modify Account features, introduce additional security measures, require periodic verification or revise registration requirements at any time in order to enhance user security, comply with legal obligations, improve platform functionality or protect the integrity of the Services.
5. Products, Product Information and Availability
Allum strives to provide an exceptional shopping experience by offering high-quality fashion apparel, accessories, lifestyle products and related merchandise through its Services. While we make every reasonable effort to ensure that all product information is accurate, complete and up to date, all products displayed on our Services are subject to availability, inventory limitations, supplier constraints, manufacturing changes, quality inspections, seasonal collections and other operational factors.
The display of any product on the Services constitutes an invitation to purchase and shall not be interpreted as a binding offer by Allum to sell such product. The placement of an order by a customer constitutes an offer to purchase, which shall become binding only upon acceptance by Allum in accordance with these Terms.
Product descriptions, specifications, materials, colors, sizing information, care instructions, dimensions, weight, availability, pricing, promotional details and other information are provided for informational purposes only. Although Allum endeavors to ensure the accuracy of such information, typographical errors, technical inaccuracies, supplier-provided inaccuracies or inadvertent omissions may occasionally occur. Allum reserves the right to correct such errors at any time without prior notice, including after an order has been placed.
Product images displayed on the Services are intended solely for illustrative purposes. While we strive to accurately represent the appearance of each product, actual colors, textures, patterns, stitching, embellishments, prints, finishes and overall appearance may vary due to factors including, but not limited to:
- Device display settings and screen resolution.
- Monitor, smartphone or tablet color calibration.
- Lighting conditions during product photography.
- Image editing or compression.
- Manufacturing variations.
- Fabric dye lots.
- Printing processes.
- Natural characteristics of materials.
Accordingly, Allum does not guarantee that the product received will appear identical to its digital representation on every device.
Fashion products may also exhibit minor variations in measurements, stitching, embroidery, texture, print alignment, button placement, trims, finishing details or other design elements resulting from manual craftsmanship, manufacturing tolerances or production improvements. Such variations shall not be considered manufacturing defects unless otherwise required under applicable consumer protection laws.
Sizing information provided on the Services is intended as a general guide only. Measurements may differ slightly between collections, manufacturers, fabrics, fits or production batches. Customers are encouraged to carefully review the applicable size chart before placing an order. Allum shall not be responsible for sizing issues arising from incorrect size selection by the customer where accurate sizing information has been provided.
All products offered by Allum are subject to availability at the time of order processing. Inclusion of a product on the Services does not guarantee its continued availability. Products may become unavailable due to inventory depletion, supplier discontinuation, quality control inspections, seasonal transitions, unforeseen demand, manufacturing delays, logistics disruptions, regulatory requirements or other operational circumstances.
Allum reserves the right to discontinue, modify, replace, redesign, update, relaunch, rename or permanently remove any product, collection, category, feature or product line at any time without prior notice. Such actions shall not create any obligation to continue offering a particular product or maintain its availability.
In certain circumstances, inventory discrepancies may occur due to simultaneous purchases, technical synchronization delays, warehouse adjustments, payment verification processes or other operational factors. If a product becomes unavailable after an order has been placed, Allum may, at its sole discretion:
- Cancel the affected order in whole or in part.
- Offer a comparable or replacement product where appropriate.
- Delay fulfillment until inventory becomes available.
- Issue a full or partial refund for unavailable items.
- Contact the customer regarding available alternatives.
Nothing in these Terms shall obligate Allum to supply products that are unavailable, incorrectly priced or listed due to technical, human or system errors.
Certain products may be offered in limited quantities, exclusive collections, seasonal releases, limited editions, pre-order campaigns, early-access launches, promotional sales or clearance events. Such products may be subject to purchase limits, geographic restrictions, eligibility requirements, invitation-only access or other limitations determined solely by Allum. We reserve the right to restrict quantities purchased by any individual, household, business or Account where reasonably necessary to prevent stockpiling, unauthorized resale, automated purchasing, promotional abuse or unfair purchasing practices.
Allum reserves the right to introduce new products, discontinue existing products, modify product specifications, update designs, improve materials, change packaging, revise branding or implement manufacturing improvements without prior notice, provided that such modifications do not materially misrepresent the product purchased or violate applicable law.
Customers are responsible for carefully reviewing all available product information before completing a purchase. This includes product descriptions, specifications, size charts, care instructions, compatibility information, pricing, applicable taxes, shipping details and any product-specific notices or warnings. Failure to review such information shall not constitute grounds for cancellation, return, exchange or compensation except as otherwise provided under applicable law or Allum's published policies.
Allum reserves the right to refuse the sale of any product, limit purchase quantities, restrict access to specific products, suspend product availability or decline any transaction where it reasonably believes that the purchase may involve fraudulent activity, unauthorized resale, commercial exploitation, abuse of promotional offers, violation of these Terms or any conduct that may adversely affect Allum, its customers, suppliers, partners or business operations.
By purchasing products through the Services, you acknowledge that product availability, specifications, appearance, packaging, pricing and related information may change from time to time as part of normal business operations. You further agree that Allum's obligation is limited to supplying products substantially consistent with the product information available at the time your order is accepted, subject to applicable law and these Terms.
6. Pricing, Taxes and Payments
All prices displayed on the Services are listed in the applicable local currency unless otherwise expressly stated. Pricing for products may vary based on factors including product category, size, color, collection, promotional campaigns, regional availability, taxes, shipping destination, supplier pricing, seasonal demand and other commercial considerations. Allum reserves the right to determine and modify product prices at its sole discretion.
Prices displayed on the Services are subject to change at any time without prior notice. Such changes may occur due to fluctuations in manufacturing costs, supplier pricing, import duties, taxation, logistics expenses, currency exchange rates, market conditions, promotional campaigns, pricing corrections, technical updates or other business requirements. Any price modification shall apply prospectively and shall not affect orders that have already been accepted by Allum, except where correction of an obvious pricing error is permitted under applicable law.
While Allum makes every reasonable effort to ensure accurate pricing, technical issues, typographical mistakes, system malfunctions, synchronization delays, supplier errors or human errors may occasionally result in incorrect prices being displayed on the Services. If a product is listed at an incorrect price due to any such error, Allum reserves the right, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to:
- Correct the pricing error.
- Cancel the affected order before shipment.
- Request confirmation from the customer before processing the order at the correct price.
- Issue a full refund where payment has already been received.
- Decline fulfillment where honoring the incorrect price would result in a material error or financial loss.
Nothing in these Terms obligates Allum to honor prices that are clearly erroneous, fraudulent or the result of technical malfunction.
Unless otherwise stated, product prices may be exclusive or inclusive of applicable taxes depending on the laws of the jurisdiction in which the customer is located. Where required by applicable law, Goods and Services Tax (GST), Value Added Tax (VAT), sales tax, customs duties, import duties or other governmental charges shall be calculated and displayed during checkout or otherwise included in the final purchase price. Customers remain solely responsible for any customs duties, import charges, brokerage fees, local taxes or regulatory fees imposed by authorities in the destination country that are not collected by Allum during checkout.
Shipping charges, handling fees, packaging charges, gift wrapping fees, express delivery charges, insurance fees, convenience fees or any other applicable service charges shall be clearly communicated during the checkout process before the customer completes payment. Such charges may vary depending on the shipping method selected, delivery location, order value, product category, promotional offers or other applicable conditions.
Payment for purchases must be made using one of the payment methods accepted by Allum at the time of checkout. Accepted payment methods may include, but are not limited to:
- Credit Cards
- Debit Cards
- UPI
- Net Banking
- Digital Wallets
- Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services
- Gift Cards
- Store Credits
- Cash on Delivery (where available)
- Other payment methods introduced from time to time
Availability of specific payment methods may vary depending on the customer's location, device, order value, product category, applicable regulations or payment service provider requirements.
By submitting payment information, you represent and warrant that you are legally authorized to use the selected payment method and that all payment details provided are accurate, complete, current and lawfully obtained. You agree not to use stolen payment instruments, unauthorized payment credentials, fraudulent financial information or any payment method belonging to another person without their express authorization.
All payment transactions are processed through independent third-party payment processors, financial institutions, banks, payment gateways and related service providers. Allum does not store complete payment card details unless expressly stated and permitted by applicable law. The processing, authorization and security of payment information are governed by the terms, privacy policies and security practices of the respective payment service providers.
Payment authorization does not constitute acceptance of an order. Even after successful payment authorization or payment capture, Allum reserves the right to reject, cancel or refuse an order in accordance with these Terms, including but not limited to situations involving inventory unavailability, suspected fraud, payment verification failures, legal restrictions, pricing errors, policy violations or other operational considerations. Where payment has already been collected for a cancelled order, the applicable refund shall be processed in accordance with the Return & Refund Policy.
Certain payment methods may require additional verification procedures, including One-Time Passwords (OTP), 3D Secure authentication, Know Your Customer (KYC) verification, identity confirmation, billing address verification, fraud screening or other security measures imposed by payment providers or financial institutions. You agree to cooperate with such verification procedures as a condition of completing your transaction.
For orders placed using Cash on Delivery (COD), Allum reserves the right to impose additional eligibility requirements, order value limitations, serviceability restrictions, advance confirmation procedures or verification requirements. Excessive order cancellations, repeated refusal of COD deliveries, fraudulent ordering behavior or misuse of COD services may result in permanent removal of COD eligibility for your Account.
Promotional discounts, coupon codes, loyalty rewards, referral credits, store credits, gift vouchers or other promotional benefits may be applied only in accordance with their respective terms and conditions. Such benefits:
- Cannot be redeemed for cash unless required by law.
- May have expiration dates.
- May not be combined with certain other promotions.
- May apply only to eligible products or categories.
- May be revoked in cases of fraud, misuse or policy violations.
- Remain subject to verification before final order acceptance.
If any payment is reversed, disputed, charged back, declined after authorization, reported as fraudulent or otherwise fails to settle successfully, Allum reserves the right to suspend order fulfillment, recover outstanding amounts, restrict future purchases, suspend or terminate the associated Account, initiate recovery proceedings where legally permitted or pursue any other remedies available under applicable law.
Invoices, receipts, tax invoices and payment confirmations shall generally be issued electronically and made available through the registered email address, customer account or other digital means determined by Allum. Customers are responsible for reviewing such documents and notifying Allum of any discrepancies within a reasonable period.
Allum reserves the right to introduce, discontinue, modify or restrict payment methods, pricing models, taxes, fees, financing options, promotional pricing, subscription billing, installment payment options or other payment-related features at any time in accordance with applicable law and business requirements.
By completing a purchase through the Services, you acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for paying all applicable charges associated with your order, including product prices, taxes, shipping fees, customs charges (where applicable) and any additional amounts disclosed during checkout. You further authorize Allum and its payment service providers to process the selected payment method for the total amount due in connection with your purchase.
7. Orders and Order Acceptance
The placement of an order through the Services constitutes an offer by you to purchase the selected products in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. Submission of an order does not automatically create a binding contract between you and Allum, nor does it guarantee that the requested products will be accepted, processed, shipped or delivered. A legally binding contract for the sale of products is formed only when Allum expressly accepts your order and, where applicable, dispatches the ordered products.
After you place an order, you may receive an order confirmation, payment confirmation or acknowledgment email, SMS or other electronic communication confirming that your order request has been successfully received by our systems. Such communication is provided solely for informational purposes and does not constitute acceptance of your order. Order acceptance remains subject to verification, inventory availability, payment authorization, fraud screening, quality control, legal compliance and other operational requirements.
Allum reserves the right to review, verify, accept, reject, modify, delay or cancel any order at its sole discretion before shipment, including after payment has been successfully processed. We are under no obligation to fulfill any order until it has been formally accepted and prepared for dispatch.
To protect our customers and maintain the integrity of the Services, Allum may perform various verification procedures before accepting an order. These procedures may include verification of payment information, billing and shipping addresses, customer identity, order history, product availability, purchase quantity, delivery eligibility, fraud detection checks or any other verification deemed reasonably necessary.
Allum reserves the right to refuse or cancel any order, in whole or in part, including but not limited to the following circumstances:
- The requested product is unavailable or out of stock.
- Payment authorization fails or payment cannot be successfully completed.
- Incorrect pricing or product information has been displayed due to technical or human error.
- The order appears to be fraudulent, suspicious or unauthorized.
- The customer has violated these Terms or other applicable policies.
- The order exceeds quantity limitations or purchase restrictions.
- Delivery to the requested location is unavailable or prohibited.
- Government regulations, sanctions, export restrictions or legal requirements prevent fulfillment.
- Force majeure events or operational disruptions prevent processing.
- The order appears to be intended for unauthorized commercial resale or bulk purchasing.
- Additional verification requested by Allum is not successfully completed.
In cases where an order is cancelled after payment has been received, Allum shall initiate a refund for the cancelled portion of the order in accordance with the applicable Return and Refund Policy and the payment provider's processing timelines.
Customers are responsible for ensuring that all order information submitted during checkout is accurate, complete and up to date. This includes product selection, size, color, quantity, shipping address, billing information, contact details, payment information and any special delivery instructions. Allum shall not be responsible for delays, failed deliveries, additional shipping costs or order cancellations resulting from incorrect or incomplete information provided by the customer.
Once an order has been placed, modification or cancellation may not always be possible, particularly after the order has entered processing, packaging, quality inspection or shipment stages. Where modification or cancellation is permitted, it shall remain subject to operational feasibility and Allum's Cancellation Policy.
For certain products, including limited edition collections, exclusive launches, customized products, made-to-order items, pre-order products or promotional merchandise, additional conditions may apply regarding order processing, cancellation, availability, production timelines or fulfillment. Such conditions shall be communicated on the relevant product page or during checkout and shall form part of these Terms.
Allum may impose reasonable purchase limits on specific products, promotional campaigns or limited inventory items. We reserve the right to restrict the number of units purchased by an individual customer, household, Account, payment method, shipping address or business entity in order to ensure fair availability, prevent stockpiling, discourage unauthorized resale and maintain equitable access to products.
Order processing times displayed on the Services are estimates only and may vary depending on inventory availability, warehouse operations, payment verification, product inspections, customization requirements, seasonal demand, public holidays, logistics capacity or unforeseen operational circumstances. Estimated processing times do not constitute guaranteed processing or dispatch deadlines unless expressly stated otherwise.
Allum reserves the right to split an order into multiple shipments where operationally necessary. This may occur due to inventory distribution across warehouses, product availability, packaging requirements, supplier fulfillment or shipping efficiency. Where an order is shipped in multiple packages, customers shall not incur additional shipping charges unless expressly disclosed during checkout.
Risk of loss and responsibility for the products shall pass to the customer upon successful delivery to the delivery address specified in the order, unless otherwise required by applicable law. Ownership of the products shall transfer only after full payment has been successfully received and the products have been delivered.
Customers are responsible for inspecting delivered products promptly upon receipt. Any claims regarding missing items, incorrect products, visible shipping damage, packaging tampering or delivery discrepancies should be reported to Allum within the timeframe specified in the applicable Return, Exchange or Shipping Policy. Failure to notify Allum within the applicable reporting period may affect the availability of certain remedies, except where prohibited by law.
Allum reserves the right to suspend, delay or refuse future orders from customers who repeatedly cancel confirmed orders without reasonable cause, abuse promotional offers, refuse Cash on Delivery shipments, engage in fraudulent payment activities, submit false claims, manipulate return processes or otherwise misuse the Services.
Nothing contained within these Terms shall require Allum to fulfill an order that cannot reasonably be completed due to inventory shortages, legal restrictions, supplier issues, payment failures, force majeure events, technical malfunctions or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
By placing an order through the Services, you acknowledge and agree that your order is subject to review and acceptance by Allum, that confirmation of receipt does not constitute acceptance and that Allum retains the right to decline or cancel any order in accordance with these Terms and applicable law.
8. Shipping, Delivery and Fulfilment
Allum is committed to delivering products to customers in a timely, secure and reliable manner. While we strive to process and dispatch orders as efficiently as possible, all shipping and delivery timelines provided through our Services are estimates only and should not be interpreted as guaranteed delivery commitments unless expressly stated otherwise.
Delivery timelines may vary depending on numerous factors, including product availability, warehouse processing, payment verification, order volume, shipping destination, courier partner capacity, weather conditions, public holidays, customs clearance, government restrictions, transportation disruptions, force majeure events or other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of Allum.
Orders shall be processed only after successful payment authorization or confirmation of eligibility for Cash on Delivery (where available). Certain orders may require additional verification before shipment, including payment verification, identity confirmation, address verification, fraud screening or other security checks. Completion of such verification may extend the estimated processing time.
Once an order has been successfully processed, it will be prepared for packaging, quality inspection and dispatch from the appropriate warehouse or fulfillment center. Processing time is separate from shipping time and customers should consider both when estimating the expected delivery date.
Allum reserves the right to determine the most appropriate shipping method, fulfillment location, warehouse, courier partner, packaging materials, delivery route and logistics provider for each order. Orders may be fulfilled from multiple warehouses or fulfillment centers depending on inventory availability and operational efficiency.
Where operationally necessary, Allum may split a single order into multiple shipments without additional shipping charges unless expressly communicated during checkout. Products shipped separately may arrive on different dates and each shipment shall be considered part of the original order.
Shipping charges, if applicable, shall be displayed during checkout before payment is completed. Shipping fees may vary depending on factors including:
- Delivery destination.
- Shipping method selected.
- Order value.
- Product category.
- Package dimensions and weight.
- Promotional offers.

Free shipping promotions, where offered, shall remain subject to the specific terms and eligibility criteria published by Allum and may be modified, suspended or withdrawn at any time.
Customers are solely responsible for providing complete, accurate and deliverable shipping information at the time of placing an order. This includes the recipient's full name, street address, apartment or building details, postal code, city, state, country, contact number and any relevant delivery instructions. Allum shall not be responsible for failed deliveries, returned shipments, delays or additional charges resulting from inaccurate, incomplete, outdated or incorrect shipping information provided by the customer.
Once an order has been dispatched, customers may receive shipment confirmation containing tracking information where supported by the courier service. Shipment tracking updates are provided for convenience only and are based on information supplied by third-party logistics providers. Allum does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness or real-time availability of tracking information.
Delivery shall be deemed successfully completed when the shipment is delivered to the delivery address specified in the order and accepted by the customer, a family member, building receptionist, security personnel, authorized recipient or any individual reasonably present at the delivery location. Unless prohibited by applicable law, Allum shall not be responsible for products accepted by persons present at the delivery address.
In certain circumstances, the courier partner may require proof of identity, signature, One-Time Password (OTP), government-issued identification or other verification before completing delivery. Customers agree to cooperate with such verification requirements where applicable.
Customers are responsible for inspecting the package immediately upon delivery. If the outer packaging appears damaged, tampered with, opened, resealed or otherwise compromised, customers are encouraged to refuse delivery where appropriate or immediately notify Allum's customer support with supporting photographs and relevant information.
Delivery dates displayed on the Services are estimates only and shall not constitute guaranteed delivery deadlines. Allum shall not be liable for delays arising from circumstances including but not limited to:

Where a delivery attempt is unsuccessful due to customer unavailability, refusal to accept delivery, incorrect address, inaccessible premises, failure to provide required verification or repeated unsuccessful delivery attempts, the shipment may be returned to Allum. In such cases, Allum reserves the right to cancel the order, deduct applicable shipping or return logistics costs where permitted by law or require payment of additional shipping charges before re-dispatching the products.
For international shipments, customers acknowledge that products may be subject to customs inspections, import duties, taxes, brokerage fees, regulatory clearances and other governmental requirements imposed by the destination country. Unless expressly stated otherwise during checkout, such charges shall remain the sole responsibility of the customer.
Risk of accidental loss or damage to products shall transfer to the customer upon successful delivery of the shipment to the designated delivery address or authorized recipient, except where otherwise required under applicable law. Ownership of the products shall transfer only after Allum has received full payment for the order.
Allum reserves the right to restrict or refuse delivery to certain regions, postal codes, countries, institutions, commercial establishments, high-risk locations or jurisdictions where shipping is impractical, prohibited, unsafe, commercially unreasonable or restricted by law.
Certain products, including oversized items, customized products, made-to-order merchandise, premium collections, limited-edition products, hazardous materials or products requiring special handling, may have additional shipping conditions, extended processing timelines, specialized packaging requirements or geographic delivery limitations. Such conditions shall be communicated where applicable and shall form part of these Terms.
Customers are responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable import laws, customs regulations, local restrictions and product usage regulations applicable within their jurisdiction. Allum shall not be responsible for shipments delayed, confiscated, returned or destroyed by customs authorities or government agencies due to local legal restrictions beyond its reasonable control.
By placing an order through the Services, you acknowledge and agree that shipping and delivery timelines are estimates, that fulfillment remains subject to operational and logistical factors and that Allum shall not be liable for reasonable delays, failed deliveries arising from customer-provided information or circumstances beyond its reasonable control, except as otherwise required by applicable law.
9. Returns, Exchanges and Refunds
At **Allum**, customer satisfaction is important to us and we strive to ensure that every product delivered meets our quality standards.

- Customer location.
- Courier serviceability.

Availability of pickup services does not guarantee successful collection on a particular date or time.

Reservation of Rights
Allum reserves the right to amend, suspend, restrict or discontinue its return, exchange and refund policies at any time to reflect operational requirements, product categories, legal obligations, fraud prevention measures or business considerations. Any changes shall apply prospectively and shall not affect rights that have already accrued under applicable law.
By purchasing products through the Services, you acknowledge and agree that all return, exchange and refund requests shall be governed by this Section, the applicable Return Policy and any mandatory consumer protection laws applicable within your jurisdiction.
10. Cancellations
Allum recognizes that customers may occasionally need to cancel an order. Accordingly, we may permit order cancellations in certain circumstances; however, all cancellations remain subject to these Terms and Conditions, our operational requirements, the status of the order, applicable product restrictions and relevant laws. The ability to request cancellation does not guarantee that a cancellation will be accepted.
Orders may generally be cancelled only before they enter processing, quality inspection, packaging, fulfillment or shipment. Once an order has progressed beyond these stages, cancellation may no longer be possible because the product may have already been allocated, packed or handed over to a logistics partner for delivery.
Customers may submit cancellation requests through their Allum account, customer support channels or any other cancellation mechanism made available through the Services. Submission of a cancellation request shall not automatically result in cancellation. All cancellation requests remain subject to review and confirmation by Allum.
If a cancellation request is approved before shipment, the order shall be cancelled and any eligible payment received shall be refunded in accordance with the applicable Refund Policy. Refund processing timelines may vary depending on the payment method, banking institution, payment gateway or financial service provider involved.
Where an order has already been dispatched, cancellation may no longer be possible. In such cases, customers may be required to receive the shipment first and thereafter request a return, exchange or refund in accordance with the applicable Return & Refund Policy, if the product qualifies for such remedies.
Certain products may not be eligible for cancellation after an order has been placed. These may include, without limitation:
- Customized or personalized products.
- Made-to-order products.
- Products manufactured specifically for the customer.
- Limited edition or exclusive collections.
- Products purchased during special promotional events where cancellation restrictions have been disclosed.
- Digital products or services that have already been delivered or activated.
- Gift cards or similar non-refundable products.
Where cancellation restrictions apply, they shall be communicated on the relevant product page, during checkout or in applicable product-specific terms.
For orders placed using Cash on Delivery (COD), Allum reserves the right to verify the order before processing, including through telephone calls, SMS verification, email confirmation or One-Time Password (OTP) authentication. Failure to complete such verification within the specified period may result in automatic cancellation of the order.
Customers are expected to place orders responsibly. Repeated cancellations, particularly after products have been processed or dispatched, may negatively affect warehouse operations, logistics resources, inventory planning and service quality. Accordingly, Allum reserves the right to investigate excessive or abusive cancellation behavior.
Examples of cancellation abuse include, but are not limited to:
- Repeated placement and cancellation of orders without genuine intent to purchase.
- Frequent refusal to accept Cash on Delivery shipments.
- Creating multiple accounts to bypass cancellation restrictions.
- Cancelling orders to manipulate pricing or promotional offers.
- Interfering with inventory availability for other customers.
- Using automated tools or bots to reserve inventory through repeated cancellations.
Where such behavior is identified, Allum may, at its sole discretion:
- Restrict cancellation privileges.
- Disable Cash on Delivery eligibility.
- Limit future purchases.
- Require prepaid payment methods.
- Suspend promotional benefits.
- Temporarily suspend the customer account.
- Permanently terminate the account in cases of serious or repeated abuse.
- Take any additional action reasonably necessary to protect the Services.
Allum reserves the right to cancel any order, in whole or in part, at any time before delivery where reasonably necessary. Circumstances in which Allum may cancel an order include, but are not limited to:
- Product unavailability.
- Inventory discrepancies.
- Manufacturing or supplier issues.
- Quality control failures.
- Payment authorization failure.
- Suspected fraudulent or unauthorized transactions.
- Pricing or technical errors.
- Violation of these Terms.
- Government regulations or legal restrictions.
- Customs or export compliance requirements.
- Force majeure events.
- Operational or logistical constraints.
- Security concerns affecting the transaction.
Where Allum cancels an order after payment has been successfully received, the customer shall be entitled to a refund of the amount actually paid for the cancelled portion of the order, subject to applicable law and the Refund Policy.
If only part of an order is cancelled due to product unavailability or operational reasons, the remaining eligible items may continue to be processed and shipped separately. In such cases, refunds shall apply only to the cancelled products unless otherwise required by law.
Cancellation of an order shall not relieve the customer of any obligations arising prior to cancellation, including responsibility for fraudulent transactions, payment disputes, chargebacks, policy violations or any other liability incurred before the cancellation became effective.
Customers acknowledge that courier delays, shipment processing, warehouse allocation or temporary order status updates do not necessarily indicate that an order can still be cancelled. Operational systems may require time to synchronize order status across fulfillment, logistics and customer support platforms.
Allum may also decline cancellation requests where the request is made after ownership or risk has transferred in accordance with these Terms or where cancellation would violate applicable laws, contractual obligations or supplier commitments.
Nothing contained in this Section shall limit any statutory rights available to consumers under applicable consumer protection legislation. Where mandatory law grants cancellation rights that differ from these Terms, such statutory rights shall prevail to the extent required by law.
By placing an order through the Services, you acknowledge and agree that cancellation requests are subject to operational feasibility, product eligibility, order status and these Terms and Conditions and that Allum reserves the right to approve, reject or limit cancellations in order to ensure fair use of the Services and efficient business operations.
