5. Chocolate & Temperature
A Little Extra Care for Chocolate
Chocolate can be sensitive to temperature.
During hot weather, transportation conditions may affect the appearance or
texture of chocolate. Minor changes such as softening, blooming or surface
changes can occur due to temperature fluctuations and may not necessarily
indicate that the product is unsafe or defective.
Customers should store the chocolates according to the instructions provided
on the product packaging after delivery.
FSSAI’s labelling requirements include applicable instructions for use and
food information, so customers should always follow the storage instructions
printed on the specific product.
6. Delivery Delays
Occasionally, deliveries may be delayed because of:
- Extreme weather
- Courier disruptions
- Public holidays
- Incorrect or incomplete address information
- Remote delivery locations
- High-demand periods
- Events beyond our reasonable control
If your order appears significantly delayed, please contact us with your
order number and we will assist you.
7. Damaged or Incorrect Orders
Your Order Matters to Us
If your package arrives visibly damaged, incorrect or with a significant
issue, please contact us as soon as possible after delivery.
To help us investigate the issue quickly, please provide:
- Order number
- Registered phone number/email
- Photographs of the outer packaging
- Photographs of the product
- Photographs of the shipping label
- A brief description of the issue
Where appropriate and subject to verification, Chokolux may offer a
replacement, refund or another suitable resolution.
8. Cancellation Policy
Need to Cancel Your Order?
If you need to cancel your order, please contact us as soon as possible
after placing the order.
Before Dispatch
Cancellation requests received before the order is processed/dispatched may
be considered for cancellation.
If the cancellation is approved, the eligible amount will be refunded to the
original payment method, subject to applicable payment-processing timelines.
After Dispatch
Once an order has been dispatched, cancellation may no longer be possible.
In such cases, please contact our customer-support team and we will review
the situation according to the applicable order status and policy.
9. Refund Policy
When Can a Refund Be Requested?
Refunds may be considered in situations such as:
- An order is accepted for cancellation before dispatch
- A wrong product is delivered
- A product is received in a materially damaged condition
- An order is not delivered due to an issue attributable to Chokolux
- Another situation specifically covered by our applicable customer-resolution process
All refund requests are subject to verification.
10. Food Product Returns
Because Chokolux products are food items, we generally do not accept returns
of products that have been delivered correctly and are not defective.
For food safety reasons, customers should not send food products back unless
specifically instructed by Chokolux customer support.
This does not affect any rights or remedies available to consumers under
applicable law.
11. Melting & Appearance
Chocolate may be affected by heat during transportation.
A change in appearance or texture caused by temperature exposure does not
automatically mean the product is defective.
However, if you believe your product has arrived in an unacceptable
condition, please contact us promptly with photographs and your order details
so that our team can review the issue.
12. Refund Processing
Once a refund is approved, the refund will generally be initiated to the
original payment method used for the purchase.
The time taken for the amount to appear in your account may depend on your
bank, card issuer, payment gateway or other financial institution.
Estimated refund processing time:
[X–X BUSINESS DAYS]
13. Non-Delivery
If an order cannot be delivered because of:
- Incorrect address
- Incorrect PIN code
- Incorrect contact details
- Customer unavailability
- Refusal to accept delivery
- Repeated failed delivery attempts
The order may be returned to the sender or otherwise handled according to
the applicable courier process.
Additional shipping or re-dispatch charges may apply where permitted and
communicated to the customer.
14. Exchanges
We generally do not offer exchanges for correctly delivered food products.
However, if you receive an incorrect or materially damaged product, please
contact us immediately so that we can review the issue and determine an
appropriate resolution.
