Refund & Returns policy

Your gift should reach the recipient address in good condition but in the event of damage or breakage it may be necessary to arrange a replacement or a refund. In the event that there is a problem, please contact us as soon as possible and we will do our best to put things right. Replacement products can only be made within 7 days of receipt of goods.

 

Where a refund is necessary, it will only be issued to the original purchaser's card used to place the order.

For personalised items, once the order is placed it cannot be cancelled or returned as these items are made to order. For any order that is placed with incorrect wording or alike, the buyer must contact TBBF within 2 hours of placing the order to change or cancel. Any requests received outside of this timeframe may not be refunded or changed.

​

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small piece of data that a website asks your browser to store on your computer, tablet or mobile device. The cookie allows the website to "remember" your actions or preferences over time.

Most Internet browsers support cookies; however, users can set their browser to decline certain types of cookies or specific cookies. Further, users can delete stored cookies at any time.

​

Why do we use cookies?

We use cookies to improve your online shopping experience, including maintaining your shopping basket & information relating to personalised items.

We also use cookies to learn how you interact with our content and to improve your experience when visiting our website. For example, some cookies remember your preferences so that you do not have to repeatedly make these choices. Additionally, cookies allow us to serve you specific content, such as videos on our website. 

​

What types of cookies do we use?

First-Party Cookies

We use both first-party and third-party cookies on our website.

First-party cookies are cookies issued from the TBBF domain and are generally used to identify your users preferences and render shopping basket functionality.

​

Session Cookies

Session cookies are temporary cookies that are used to remember you during the course of your visit to the website, and they expire when you close the web browser.

​

Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies are used to remember your preferences within the website and remain on your desktop or mobile device even after you close your browser or restart your computer. We use these cookies to analyse user behaviour to establish visit patterns so that we can improve our website functionality for you and others who visit our website. These cookies also allow us to serve you with targeted advertising and measure the effectiveness of our site functionality and advertising.

​

How are cookies used for advertising purposes?

Cookies and ad technology such as web beacons, pixels, and anonymous ad network tags help us serve relevant ads to you more effectively. They also help us collect aggregated audit data, research, and performance reporting for advertisers. Pixels enable us to understand and improve the delivery of ads to you, and know when certain ads have been shown to you. Since your web browser may request advertisements and web beacons directly from ad network servers, these networks can view, edit, or set their own cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site.

 

We never provide any personal information that we collect to advertisers. You can opt out of off-site and third-party-informed advertising by adjusting your cookie settings. Opting out will not remove advertising from the pages you visit, but, instead, opting out will result in the ads you see not being matched to your interests. This implies that the ad(s) you see will not be matched to your interests by those specific cookies.

​

If you reject the use of cookies, you will still be able to visit our websites but some of the functions may not work correctly. By using our website without deleting or rejecting some or all cookies, you agree that we can place those cookies that you have not deleted or rejected on your device.
