If in doubt, we reserve the right to check the validity of the transaction with the cardholder and cancel the order if necessary.

TAXES

The Canadian provincial and federal sales taxes applied to your order are calculated according to the rate in effect at the time of purchase and according to the delivery address associated with your order. All amounts are in Canadian dollars.

Sales taxes are not applicable on purchases shipped outside of Canada.

If you are returning an item for a refund, the refund will include the sales tax you paid at the time of your purchase.

*Please note that there may be a slightly longer delivery time during busy periods such as sales (Black Friday, Boxing Day), during the holiday season and during various events which may affect transport companies.

 

RETURN AND EXCHANGE

What is a return?

This is an item that you are returning to us because you are not satisfied with it. You therefore have 15 days following receipt to return a product that has not been worn or washed and still has the labels in place. The product must be in good condition as when received. To make a return, it's very simple! Here's how:

  • In Canada and internationally:
  • Complete the online form available in the Exchange and Return tab on our site.
  • Write us an email with Return in the subject line to activate the simple return procedure to info@4umaternity.com. Do not forget to attach the completed form.
  • Put all the items (respecting the conditions mentioned above) to be returned in the original bag (we recycle them!). Take care to remove or cover the old label on the shipping bag.
  • Post the package with a new label to the address received via your email.

**Please choose a delivery person who uses a tracking number to prevent your package from being lost. We are not responsible for lost or damaged packages.

And for an exchange?

As we are a very small start-up company, we do not offer product exchanges at this time. So if you ever want to make an exchange, you must use the return procedure and order your new product afterwards. Delivery costs will be paid by the customer. We promise to work on  reassessing the situation to offer you with a better exchange policy once our company is well-positioned. Thank you very much for your understanding.

Can I exchange an item on sale?

All of our sale items are final sale and cannot be exchanged or refunded.

What if I return for a manufacturing defect?

We are extremely demanding and perfectionist regarding the quality of our products, but it is still possible that your product is delivered to you with a manufacturing defect. If so, notify us via info@4umaternity.com with Manufacturing defect in subject line and send us a photo of the defect within 10 days upon receipt (beyond this period, the claim will be rejected). Once the manufacturing defect has been confirmed, we will commit to replace your product as soon as possible.
