Terms and conditions of the sale
Introduction
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of the KJ Bownes website (www.kjbownes.com) and the purchase of any products through this site. KJ Bownes & Sons (referred to as “KJ Bownes”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) sells railway sleepers, rails, and related materials to customers within the United Kingdom and the Channel Islands. By accessing our website or placing an order, you (“the customer” or “you”) agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you should refrain from using our site or ordering products. These Terms do not affect your statutory rights under UK law.
1. Product Description and Variability
We strive to describe and photograph products on our site as accurately as possible. However, due to the natural and reclaimed nature of many of our products (such as railway sleepers and used rails), variations in appearance, size, and condition will occur. All sizes, dimensions, and weights provided on the site are approximate.
Such variations are inherent to the character of the products and are to be expected by the customer. For example, reclaimed timber sleepers may exhibit differences in color or grain, weathering, knots, splits, nail holes, or other marks from previous use. These characteristics are part of the product’s character and do not constitute defects or grounds for return if the product is otherwise as described. Photographs on the website are for illustrative purposes only – the actual items you receive may vary in appearance due to their unique nature.
By purchasing from KJ Bownes, you acknowledge and accept that natural and reclaimed products will have variability. We make no guarantee that the product will be identical to any image or sample, only that it will meet the general description and specifications provided (allowing for reasonable variations as described above).
2. Returns and Delivery Charges
If you wish to return any goods to us (for example, if you change your mind), you are responsible for the cost of returning the items. Unless required by law, we will not refund the original delivery charge paid on your order. Once the returned goods are received and inspected, we will process a refund for the purchase price of the product (minus any delivery charges, if applicable). Goods must be returned in their original condition (unused and not damaged beyond what may have occurred from examining the product) to be eligible for a refund. We recommend using a tracked and insured delivery service for returns, as we cannot be responsible for items lost or damaged in return transit.
This returns policy does not affect your legal rights. If we have supplied an item incorrectly, or if a product is found to be faulty or not as described, please notify us as soon as possible. In such cases, we will work with you to arrange return or replacement at our expense, and we will refund any applicable delivery charges in line with your statutory rights.
3. Delivery Terms
Kerbside Delivery: Unless otherwise agreed in writing by KJ Bownes, all deliveries are “kerbside” only. This means the delivery driver will unload the goods at the nearest accessible point to your property (for example, at the curbside or the end of your driveway). The delivery personnel are not required to carry goods into your home, garden, or building site. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have the means to move the products from the kerbside to your desired location. Please ensure the delivery location is accessible for a large delivery vehicle; if there are any access restrictions (narrow lanes, weight limits, etc.), you must inform us in advance. Failure to do so may result in failed delivery attempts and additional charges.
Third-Party Carriers and Delivery Delays: We may use third-party freight or pallet network services (such as Palletline or similar pallet delivery companies) to deliver heavy or bulky goods. While we will provide you with an estimated delivery date, KJ Bownes cannot be held responsible for delivery delays once the goods are in transit with a third-party carrier. Delivery dates and times are estimates only and not guaranteed. Factors outside our control (such as traffic delays, vehicle breakdowns, or logistical issues in the courier network) may cause delays. Do not schedule any building, installation, or landscaping work dependent on the materials until you have received all goods in full and have checked them. KJ Bownes will not be liable for any costs, losses, or inconvenience caused by a delay in delivery, including (but not limited to) contractor fees or project delays.
If a delivery attempt is unsuccessful due to incorrect address information provided by you, or because you were not present or prepared to accept the delivery on the arranged date, you may be responsible for re-delivery charges. Title (ownership) and risk in the goods pass to you once the goods are delivered to the kerbside at your address (assuming payment has been received – see Payment Terms below). It is then your responsibility to promptly move and secure the goods. Please inspect the goods upon delivery and inform us of any damage or discrepancies as soon as possible.
4. Warranty Disclaimer
All products are sold by KJ Bownes “as is”, without any additional warranty, guarantee, or promise of specific performance. No warranty is offered with any products sold, to the fullest extent permitted by law. This means we do not provide any express warranties and we hereby exclude any implied warranties or conditions to the maximum extent allowed under applicable law.
In particular, we make no warranty that the products will be fit for any particular purpose not expressly stated by us, or that they will meet any specifications other than those outlined in the product description (subject to the Product Description and Variability clause above). Any information about the products provided by us (including any recommendations or technical guidance) is for general informational purposes and does not constitute a warranty of the product’s suitability for your specific situation.
Statutory Rights Unaffected: This Warranty Disclaimer does not affect any warranties or conditions that cannot be excluded or limited under law. As a consumer, you may have certain rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 or other applicable legislation (such as that goods be of satisfactory quality and as described). Any such statutory rights are not limited by these Terms. However, to the extent permitted by law, we exclude all other warranties, whether express or implied.
5. Payment Terms
Unless otherwise agreed in a written contract or invoice, payment must be made in full, in advance, at the time of ordering. We accept the payment methods as indicated on our website (e.g. credit/debit card, bank transfer, or other available methods). All prices are listed in GBP (£) and include any applicable VAT, unless stated otherwise. Payment is deemed received only when we have the funds in our account.
Advance Payment and Withholding Delivery: KJ Bownes reserves the right to withhold or delay dispatch of any order until full payment has been received and cleared. If your payment is not successfully processed or is reversed for any reason (such as a chargeback or insufficient funds), we are under no obligation to fulfill your order or meet any originally quoted delivery date. In such cases, we may cancel the order and, if appropriate, seek reimbursement for any costs incurred.
If we have explicitly agreed in writing to extend credit or alternate payment terms to you (for example, for trade customers or bulk orders), you must pay according to the agreed schedule (e.g. within a certain number of days of invoice). If you fail to pay any amount by the due date, we reserve the right to suspend or cancel pending deliveries and charge interest or late fees as permitted by law or the specific agreement. We also retain ownership (title) of any goods supplied on credit terms until full payment for those goods is received.
6. Data Protection and Privacy
Compliance with UK GDPR: We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information in accordance with all applicable data protection laws, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. By using our website or providing personal information to us, you acknowledge our collection and use of your information as outlined in this clause (and in any detailed Privacy Policy available on our site).
Data We Collect: In the course of your interaction with KJ Bownes (such as when you place an order, create an account, or contact us), we may collect and process certain personal data about you. This information may include, for example:
Identity and Contact Information: Your name, billing and delivery address(es), email address, phone number, and other contact details.
Order and Transaction Information: Details of the products you have ordered, order dates, payment method (e.g. which card or payment service was used), and transaction amounts. (Note: We do not store your full payment card details on our servers; payments are processed securely via our payment provider.)
Website Usage Data: If you use our website, we may collect technical data like your IP address, browser type, and cookies (as detailed in our Cookie Policy, if applicable), which help improve your browsing experience and our services.
Communication Records: Copies of correspondence with you, including emails or messages you send to us with inquiries or complaints.
How We Use Your Data: We will use your personal data only for legitimate business purposes and in accordance with the law. The main purposes for which we use your information include:
Order Fulfillment: To process and fulfill your orders, including sharing necessary information with payment processors to take payment and with delivery companies to ship your products to you.
Customer Service: To communicate with you about your order status, respond to your inquiries, arrange returns or replacements, and provide customer support.
Account Management: If you register an account on our site, to maintain your account, allow you to view order history, and facilitate a smoother checkout process on future orders.
Marketing Communications: To send you newsletters or promotional offers if you have opted in to receive them. (You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by following the opt-out instructions in those emails or contacting us.) We will not send you unsolicited marketing if you have not consented.
Legal Obligations and Records: To comply with our legal obligations (for example, maintaining transaction records for tax and accounting purposes) and for fraud prevention or verification as needed (such as verifying identity for large orders or high-value transactions to prevent fraud).
We will not use your personal data for any purpose that is incompatible with the original purpose it was collected for, unless we obtain your consent or are otherwise permitted by law.
Data Sharing and Disclosure: KJ Bownes respects your privacy and does not sell your personal data to third parties. We will only share your information with third parties in certain circumstances, such as:
Service Providers: We share relevant details with trusted third parties who perform services on our behalf to fulfill your order and operate our business. This includes delivery and logistics companies (couriers, freight and pallet networks who need your name, address and phone to deliver), payment service providers or banks (who process your payment information), and IT or email service providers (who may host our data or assist in sending communications). These third parties are only given access to the information necessary for them to perform their specific services, and they are required to handle your data securely and in compliance with law.
Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to a valid request by a law enforcement or government authority (for example, for fraud investigation, customs control for Channel Islands deliveries, or regulatory compliance).
Business Transfers: In the unlikely event that our business or assets are transferred or sold (e.g. through merger, acquisition, or insolvency proceedings), your personal data may be among the transferred assets. We will ensure the new owner is bound to respect your personal data in line with this clause or provide you notice and choices.
Aside from the above, any sharing of your data would only occur with your consent. Where we do share data with third parties, we remain responsible for ensuring your personal information is protected.
Data Security: We take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, or damage. This includes using secure servers, encryption of sensitive information (like SSL/TLS for data transmitted between your browser and our website), and limiting access to personal data to those employees, agents, and contractors who have a business need to know. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so while we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Data Retention: We will retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. For example, we may retain your order information for a number of years to comply with tax and accounting laws, even if you delete your account. When personal data is no longer needed, we will securely erase or anonymize it.
Your Rights: Under UK data protection law (UK GDPR and related legislation), you have certain rights regarding your personal data. These include:
Right of Access: You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, and information about how we process it.
Right of Rectification: You can ask us to correct or update any inaccurate or incomplete personal information we have on file.
Right to Erasure: You have the right to request that we delete your personal data if it is no longer necessary for us to retain it, if you withdraw consent (where the processing was based on consent), or in other circumstances where you want to exercise your “right to be forgotten”. Please note we may not be able to delete data that we are required to keep by law or where we have another lawful basis to retain it.
Right to Restrict or Object: You have the right to restrict our processing of your data in certain situations (for example, if you contest the accuracy of the data or object to our processing). You also have the right to object to certain processing activities, such as direct marketing. If you opt-out of marketing, we will honor that choice.
Right to Data Portability: Where applicable, you can request to receive certain personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and have the right to transmit that data to another controller.
Right to Withdraw Consent: If we rely on your consent to process any personal data, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
You can exercise any of these rights by contacting us (see Contact Us section below). We will respond to legitimate requests within the timeframes required by law (generally within one month). We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests to ensure that your data is protected from unauthorized access.
For further details on how we handle personal data, please refer to our Privacy Policy (if available on our website). If you have questions or concerns about your data, you can always contact us for more information. Additionally, if you believe we have not complied with your data protection rights, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), which is the UK supervisory authority for data protection (see ico.org.uk for more information).
7. Limitation of Liability
Use of Site and Products: To the fullest extent permitted by law, KJ Bownes & Sons shall not be liable for any loss or damage that is not reasonably foreseeable arising out of or in connection with your use of the website or purchase of products from us. This includes (but is not limited to) any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, loss of opportunity, or other indirect or consequential losses even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our responsibility for any claim related to the purchase of any product is in any event strictly limited to the amount you have paid for that product.
Consumer Rights and Liability: We do not exclude or limit our liability for anything that cannot be excluded by law, such as liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for breach of your statutory rights in relation to the products. However, beyond those circumstances, our liability to you under or in connection with these Terms (whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise) shall be limited as described above.
You acknowledge that the prices of the products reflect the allocation of risk set forth in these Terms and that we would not enter into this agreement with you without these limitations on our liability.
8. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms and Conditions, and any contracts entered into under them, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. This means that the laws of England and Wales will apply to any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the sale of products via this website (including non-contractual disputes or claims).
You agree that any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising between you and KJ Bownes in relation to these Terms or your use of the website shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. If you are a consumer resident in another part of the UK (for example Scotland or Northern Ireland) or in the Channel Islands, you may also be entitled to bring proceedings in your local courts. These Terms will not limit any consumer protection rights that you are entitled to under the law of your jurisdiction.
9. General Provisions
Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable by a court or regulator, that provision shall be deemed severed from the rest of the Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions. The rest of the Terms will remain in full force and effect. If a provision is deemed invalid due to an aspect of it, the provision shall apply with whatever modification is necessary to make it lawful and enforceable.
No Waiver: Our failure or delay to exercise any right or remedy provided under these Terms (or by law) shall not constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it prevent or restrict us from further exercising that or any other right or remedy. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by an authorized representative of KJ Bownes.
Changes to Terms: KJ Bownes reserves the right to update or modify these Terms at any time. Any changes will be effective when posted on our website. We will make an effort to notify customers of significant changes, but it is your responsibility to review the Terms periodically for any updates. Your continued use of the website or purchases of products after any changes to the Terms constitutes acceptance of those changes.
Entire Agreement: These Terms, along with any other policies or documents expressly referred to within (such as our Privacy Policy or any specific terms agreed in writing), constitute the entire agreement between you and KJ Bownes regarding the use of our website and the purchase of products from us. They supersede and replace any prior agreements, understandings, or arrangements, whether oral or written, relating to the same subject matter. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any representation or warranty not expressly stated in these Terms in deciding to enter into a contract with us.
Contact Us: If you have any questions about these Terms and Conditions or need to contact us for any reason, please reach out to us using the contact information provided on our website (for example, via our customer service email or contact form). Our registered business address and other contact details are available on the site. We will be happy to assist you and address any concerns you may have.
