Terms and Conditions
These Terms and Conditions ("Agreement") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User," "you", or "your") and Artooka ("Artooka", "Company", "we", "us", or "our"), a sole proprietorship registered in Ontario, Canada, governing your access to and use of the website located at https://www.artooka.com and all associated services (collectively, the "Platform").
1. COMPANY INFORMATION AND CONTACT INFORMATION, DISPUTES
Artooka is a sole proprietorship registered in Ontario, Canada. You can reach us at legal@artooka.com.
When you place an order on the Platform, you are buying from Artooka. Artooka arranges for your order to be prepared and delivered by independent local businesses that Artooka engages for this purpose ("Fulfilment Partners"). Fulfilment is currently limited to deliveries in Iran. Fulfilment Partners act on Artooka's behalf; you do not enter into a separate agreement with them.
If you have a problem with an order, including a delivery that is damaged, incorrect, late, or missing, contact Artooka rather than the Fulfilment Partner, and we will resolve it with the Fulfilment Partner on your behalf. Any correspondence about legal matters regarding Artooka shall be directed to legal@artooka.com.
2. SCOPE OF PLATFORM
Artooka sells floral and related gift products through the Platform. Artooka does not itself manufacture or hold inventory of these products; each order is prepared and delivered on Artooka's behalf by a Fulfilment Partner located near the recipient.
The Platform currently supports product browsing, account creation, delivery scheduling, occasion tracking, order processing, and payment facilitation via integrated third-party payment processors. As of the Effective Date, product fulfillment is limited to floral deliveries in Iran.
3. ACCOUNT REGISTRATION
To access certain features of the Platform, Users must create an account. Users represent and warrant that all information provided in the registration process is truthful, accurate, current, and complete. You agree to update all such information if it changes. In the event that you do not provide or update such information, or we have reasonable grounds to suspect that you have not provided or updated such information, we shall have the right, in our sole and absolute discretion, to disable your password and prevent you from using the Platform, or any such features or portions of the Platform.
Users are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their login credentials and for all activity that occurs under their account. In the event that your username or password is used without your consent or that you discover any other breach of security, you agree to promptly notify us. We are not responsible for your failure to comply with this clause, or for any delay in shutting down your account after you have reported a breach of security to us.
Artooka reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts, without notice or liability, for any conduct that we, in our sole discretion, believe violates these Terms or is otherwise harmful to the Platform or its Users.

- Have the right, authority, and capacity to enter into this Agreement;

5. PRODUCTS AND FULFILMENT PARTNERS
Products sold on the Platform are prepared and delivered by Fulfilment Partners on Artooka's behalf.
Images and depictions of flowers and other products on the Platform are intended to provide a general indication of their appearance, and are not photographs of the actual flowers or products that will be delivered. The actual flowers or products may differ from their depiction, including in respect of colour, size, shape, and species. Substitutions may be made based on flower or product availability. Where a substitution is made, it shall be of equal or greater value than the item ordered, and the overall style, size, and colour palette of the order shall be preserved.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Artooka makes no warranties as to the accuracy of product descriptions, availability, pricing, or delivery timelines.
All issues regarding order fulfilment, product quality, and delivery shall be directed to Artooka, which will handle them with the Fulfilment Partner on your behalf. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Artooka's liability for any order is limited to a replacement delivery or a refund of the amount paid for that order.
6. PAYMENTS
All payments are processed through independent third-party payment processors. By submitting payment information, you authorize Artooka and its payment processors to charge the applicable amounts. Artooka does not directly store or control your payment data.
Prices: The currency in which prices are displayed is stated on our website. Prices are currently shown, and payment is taken, in Canadian dollars (CAD) or US dollars (USD). Artooka reserves the right to modify pricing at any time without prior notice, though a change never affects an order already placed and paid for.
The purchase price is set by Artooka and includes the preparation of your order, its delivery, and the operation of the Platform.
7. DELIVERY
Deliveries are performed by Artooka's Fulfilment Partners or by couriers they engage. Estimated delivery times are provided for reference only and are not guaranteed. Delivery availability may vary based on the recipient's geographic location, holidays, or local regulations.
If a delivery is late, missing, or damaged, contact Artooka and we will arrange a replacement delivery or a refund where appropriate. Beyond that remedy, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Artooka is not responsible for delays, non-delivery, or any damage resulting from delivery services.
8. USE OF AI AND FUTURE FEATURES
The Platform may describe features, services, or tools (such as AI-generated recommendations, multilingual checkout, auto-onboarding, and personalized feeds) that are under development and not yet active.
