3. Contact Channels & Response Times

Currently, our primary channel for customer service is email—we’ve optimized this to ensure you receive detailed, personalized support. We may expand to additional channels (e.g., live chat, phone) in the future, and will update this policy when we do.

3.1 Email Support

Contact Email: [email protected]
How to Reach Out: Include your full name, order number (if applicable), and a clear description of your question or issue in your email. This helps us resolve your request faster.
Response Times: We aim to reply to all email inquiries within 24-48 business hours (Monday–Friday). During peak periods (e.g., sales events, holidays), response times may be slightly longer (up to 72 hours), but we will always acknowledge your inquiry within 24 hours to confirm we’ve received it.

3.2 Follow-Up Process

If you don’t receive a response within our stated timeline:

Check your spam/junk folder—our emails may sometimes be filtered there.
Resend your inquiry to [email protected] and we will prioritize your request.

4. Issue Resolution Process

We want to resolve any problems you encounter quickly and fairly. Our standard resolution process is:

Inquiry Receipt: When you contact us, we’ll acknowledge your request and assign it to a team member trained to handle your specific issue (e.g., order support, returns).
Information Gathering: If needed, we may ask for additional details (e.g., photos of damaged items, tracking numbers) to fully understand the problem.
Action & Communication: We’ll take the necessary steps to resolve the issue (e.g., initiating a refund, reshipping an item, providing product details) and update you on progress within 48 hours of receiving all required information.
Final Follow-Up: Once the issue is resolved, we’ll send a confirmation email to ensure you’re satisfied. If you have further concerns, you can reply to this email to continue the conversation.

Example Resolution Timelines:

Order Tracking Issues: Resolved within 24-48 hours (we’ll coordinate with shipping carriers to update tracking status).
Refund Status Inquiries: Resolved within 48 hours (we’ll verify refund processing with our payment team).
Damaged/Incorrect Items: Resolved within 3-5 business days (we’ll arrange a replacement or refund after verifying the issue).

5. Support for International Customers

We serve customers worldwide, and our team is prepared to assist with international-specific needs, including:

Explaining customs requirements and potential duties (note: duties are the responsibility of the recipient, as they vary by country—we can provide guidance on how to check local customs rules).
Addressing shipping delays related to international logistics or customs processing.
Ensuring communication is clear and accessible, with straightforward language to avoid misunderstandings.

6. Feedback & Suggestions

We value your input—it helps us improve our products and service. If you have feedback (positive or constructive), you can:

Email us at [email protected] with “Feedback” in the subject line.
Share comments through the feedback form that will be included in post-purchase emails (coming soon).

All feedback is reviewed by our customer service and management teams, and we use it to make updates to our policies, products, and support processes.

7. Changes to This Customer Service Policy

We may update this Customer Service Policy to reflect improvements to our service or changes in our support channels. When we make updates, we’ll revise the “Last Updated” date at the top of this policy and post the new version on our website. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we support our customers.
