2. Market Scope, Shipping & Delivery Standards

We exclusively serve consumer orders destined for addresses within European countries and territories.

  • Logistics Partners: All shipments are dispatched using reputable premium carrier services, including DHL, FedEx, and UPS Priority services.
  • Delivery Timeline: Standard transit time across European delivery destinations is estimated at 5 to 10 working days following order dispatch.
  • Order Tracking & Communications: Automated delivery tracking notifications are transmitted directly to the email address registered during order checkout at key operational stages (including order dispatch, carrier facility arrival, and final local distribution).
  • Transit Delays & Carrier Investigation: If an order exceeds the standard transit timeframe, we initiate an official tracking investigation with the carrier service. Following the investigation outcome, if a package is confirmed lost in transit or significantly delayed beyond normal parameters, we will issue either a full order refund or a replacement dispatch based on the operational evaluation.

3. Passing of Risk & Ownership

In full compliance with European Consumer Rights Directives:

  • The risk of accidental loss, damage, or deterioration of ordered goods remains with us until physical possession of the items is transferred to you (or a designated third party acting on your behalf, other than the carrier).
  • Ownership of purchased items is retained by us until payment for the entire transaction balance is fully settled.

4. Statutory Right of Withdrawal (14-Day Return Right)

Under European Union Consumer Protection Legislation, consumers residing within the European Union have the right to withdraw from a distance contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Right of Withdrawal Provisions:

  • Withdrawal Period: The withdrawal period expires 14 days from the date on which you (or a third party designated by you, other than the carrier) acquire physical possession of the ordered goods.
  • Exercising Withdrawal: To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must notify us of your decision by submitting an unambiguous written statement via email to sunhat@sunhatry.com prior to the expiration of the 14-day period.

5. Damaged, Defective, or Non-Conforming Items

We ensure that all dispatched items undergo thorough quality control checks prior to handling and packaging. However, in the event that you receive a product that is damaged or defective upon arrival:

  • Reporting Process: You may contact our customer support team via email at sunhat@sunhatry.com within the statutory period, describing the issue and attaching clear photographic evidence of the damaged or defective item.
  • Resolution & Waiver of Physical Return: Upon evaluation and approval of the submitted photographic proof, we will process a replacement dispatch or issue a monetary refund for the affected item. Physical return of the damaged item is not required where photographic verification sufficiently demonstrates the defect.
