These Terms are governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates, including the UAE Federal Law No. 15 of 2020 on Consumer Protection and UAE Federal Law No. 1 of 2006 on Electronic Commerce and Transactions.

About Acouvic

Acouvic is a UAE-based e-commerce platform specialising in audio, gaming, and lifestyle technology products. Our store operates as both a direct retailer and a marketplace facilitating sales by third-party brands and drop-shipping partners. In cases where products are fulfilled by third-party sellers, Acouvic acts solely as an intermediary platform and is not the manufacturer, importer, or warranty provider of those products.

References to “Acouvic,” “we,” “us,” or “our” throughout these Terms refer to the legal entity operating acouvic.store. References to “you” or “customer” refer to any individual accessing or transacting through our website.

02

You are accessing the site from within or for delivery to the United Arab Emirates
All information you provide during registration or checkout is accurate, current, and complete

Products, Pricing & Availability

All products listed on acouvic.store are subject to availability. We reserve the right to limit quantities, discontinue products, or modify listings without prior notice.

Pricing

All prices are displayed in UAE Dirhams (AED) and are inclusive of applicable VAT where required under UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 8 of 2017. Prices may change at any time without notice.

Product Descriptions

We make every effort to display accurate product information. However, we do not warrant that descriptions, images, or specifications are error-free, particularly for third-party and drop-shipped products.

Stock & Availability

In the event an ordered item is out of stock after payment, we will notify you promptly and offer an alternative, a backorder option, or a full refund.

Promotional Offers

Discount codes, sale prices, and promotional offers are subject to their own terms and cannot be combined unless explicitly stated. Acouvic reserves the right to withdraw promotions at any time.

04

Orders & Contract Formation

Placing an order on acouvic.store constitutes an offer to purchase a product under these Terms. A legally binding contract is only formed when we confirm your order via email and dispatch the item. We reserve the right to reject or cancel any order at any stage for reasons including but not limited to:

Suspected fraudulent or unauthorized payment
Pricing errors or system inaccuracies on the website
Product unavailability after order placement
Inability to verify delivery address within the UAE
Violation of these Terms of Service

If your order is cancelled after payment, a full refund will be issued to your UAE bank account within 7–14 working days.

Payment

We accept payments through the methods available at checkout, which may include online card payments via UAE-compliant payment gateways and Cash on Delivery (COD).

Cash on Delivery Notice: Pay on Delivery is offered solely as a convenience for customers. It does not alter refund terms — all approved refunds are processed exclusively via UAE bank transfer (IBAN), not in cash. Acouvic reserves the right to withdraw the COD option for specific areas or order values.

By providing payment details, you confirm that you are authorised to use the payment method and that the information provided is accurate. Acouvic does not store full card details — all card transactions are handled by PCI-DSS compliant third-party gateways.

06

Delivery & Shipping

Acouvic delivers across all seven UAE emirates. Estimated delivery timelines are provided at checkout and are indicative only — delays may occur due to courier capacity, remote locations, public holidays, or factors beyond our control.

Delivery Area We currently deliver within the UAE only. Orders to PO Boxes or addresses outside the UAE are not accepted.
Delivery Risk Risk of loss and title for products passes to you upon delivery. If a parcel is marked delivered but not received, you must notify us within 48 hours.
Failed Delivery If delivery fails due to an incorrect address or missed attempts, the order may be returned. Re-delivery charges may apply and are the customer’s responsibility.
Drop-Shipped Items For products fulfilled directly by third-party brands or sellers, delivery timelines and logistics are managed by the respective supplier and may differ from standard Acouvic delivery windows.
07

Marketplace & Third-Party Sellers

Acouvic’s platform includes products sourced and fulfilled by third-party brands and drop-shipping partners. In such cases:

Warranty, service, identification, and replacement obligations rest entirely with the respective brand or seller
Acouvic cannot compel any brand or seller to accept a return, issue a replacement, or provide after-sales support
Acouvic’s role is limited to facilitating the transaction and acting as a communication bridge between customer and seller
