2. Nature of Our Platform

Conscious Sustainable Shopper©™ provides informational, editorial and product-discovery content to help visitors explore products, brands, artisans, retailers and sustainability-related topics.

We are not the seller, manufacturer, payment processor or merchant of record for products offered by third-party retailers through affiliate links. Unless expressly stated otherwise, we do not own, stock, package, ship or fulfil the products featured on our Website.

Product purchases, order processing, payments, delivery, warranties, cancellations, exchanges and refunds are handled by the relevant third-party retailer or affiliate partner under its own terms and policies.

The appearance of a product or retailer on our Website does not constitute a guarantee of product availability, quality, suitability, environmental performance or retailer service.

3. Affiliate Marketing and Commercial Disclosure

Our Website may participate in affiliate marketing programmes, including programmes operated by e-retailers such as Amazon, Tata CLiQ, and other retailers or affiliate networks.

Affiliate links may direct you to a third-party retailer’s website. If you click an eligible affiliate link and complete a qualifying transaction, we may receive a commission or other referral compensation, subject to the applicable programme’s rules.

This commission is generally paid by the affiliate partner or retailer and does not necessarily increase the price you pay.

Affiliate relationships help support the operation and development of our Website. We aim to present content that is relevant to our subject areas and useful to our readers.

We may disclose affiliate relationships in the Website footer, relevant articles, product listings, the “About Us” page, the FAQs, and other appropriate locations.

We do not guarantee that every product mentioned will be the best, cheapest, most sustainable or most suitable option for every visitor. Visitors should conduct their own assessment before purchasing.

We do not ask visitors to share these credentials with us by email, social media, QR codes, customer support, messaging applications, forms, or any other communication channel.

4.2 Lookalike websites, email addresses and fraudulent communications

Fraudsters may use similar website names, misleading domain names, copied logos, altered spellings, fake email addresses, cloned pages, or impersonated social media profiles to create the false impression that they are affiliated with Conscious Sustainable Shopper ©™.

A website, email address, profile or message that resembles our branding is not, by itself, evidence that it is authorised by Conscious Sustainable Shopper©™.

Our official website is: https://www.conscioussustainableshopper.com/

Please check the complete domain and the source of any communication carefully. Do not rely solely on a logo, display name, profile picture, sender name or visual similarity.

We do not authorise third parties to collect money, request deposits, promise financial returns, solicit investments or demand payments under the name Conscious Sustainable Shopper©™.

We do not independently determine or collect the retailer’s product payments, taxes, shipping fees or other charges.

Do not make a payment to a bank account, payment handle, email address or website merely because it claims to be associated with us.

4.4 What to do if you suspect impersonation or fraud

If you receive a suspicious message, encounter a lookalike website or are asked to transfer money or share financial credentials in our name:

1. Do not click suspicious links, download unexpected attachments, transfer money or disclose credentials.

2. Independently navigate to our official website rather than using a link supplied in a suspicious message.

3. Preserve relevant evidence, including the URL, sender details, screenshots and payment requests.

4. Contact us through a contact channel published on our official Website to report the suspected impersonation.

5. If you have disclosed banking credentials or made a suspicious payment, contact your bank or payment provider immediately and report the incident to the appropriate authorities.

We may investigate reports and take reasonable steps available to us, including reporting suspected impersonation to relevant platforms or authorities. However, we cannot guarantee that every fraudulent website, account or communication will be detected, removed or prevented.

Visitors are responsible for reviewing the final order total, applicable charges and payment terms displayed by the retailer before completing a purchase.
