By making a Submission, you agree that such Submission is non-confidential, non-proprietary, and may be disseminated or used by DSC. If you make a Submission, you automatically grant—or warrant that the owner of such content has expressly granted—DSC a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, nonexclusive license to use, reproduce, create derivative works from, modify, publish, edit, translate, distribute, perform, and display the Submission in any media or medium, or any form, format, or forum now known or hereafter developed.

- TERMS OF SALE
3.1 What These Terms Cover
These are the terms and conditions on which we supply products to you.
3.2 Why You Should Read These Terms
Please read these Terms carefully before you submit your order to us. These Terms tell you who we are, how we will provide products to you, how you and we may change or end our agreement with you, what to do if there is a problem and other important information.
3.3 Sale of Products and Memberships
DSC sells shaving razors, grooming supplies, and other personal care products (the “Product(s)”) to end-user customers ("Members"), including customers who purchase a recurring membership plan (“Subscriptions”) and/or customers who make an on-demand purchase to receive Products one time or on a schedule they choose from the options DSC makes available (collectively all purchases are herein considered “Membership(s)”). Products are only for Members' own personal, non-commercial use. You may not purchase Products or Subscriptions for further distribution or resale or for any other commercial or business purpose. The Membership and all rights and privileges conferred are personal and non-transferable.
We are under a legal duty to supply products that are in conformity with these Terms.
3.4 Placing an Order
To make a one-time purchase of a Product(s) or to purchase a Subscription, Members may checkout as a guest or can create an account with us. If you create an account with us, or later claim your account after checking out as a guest, you will need to provide some personal information to register for an account and/or complete your order. Please see our Privacy Policy for information on how we use your information. You submit your order by clicking on the 'Pay Now' button (please note that your order may be a recurring subscription as set out in these Terms). You should check your order and the information provided about your order carefully before you submit your order. Once you have submitted your order, we will send you an email to acknowledge and summarise your order. This does not mean that we have accepted your order.
We will contact you if your order is not accepted. This will usually be because (a) Products you have ordered are unavailable; (b) we cannot authorise your payment; (c) you are not allowed to buy Products from us or we are not allowed to sell Products to you; or (d) there has been a mistake in the pricing or description of the Products you have ordered.
Our acceptance of your order will take place only when we have received payment from you and dispatched your Products. It is only at this point that a legally binding contract will be formed between you and us and we will be required to send the Products to you and fulfil your Subscription. Please note that you have legal rights to cancel and we set those out in Section 4.4.
If any problems arise with your order, or with the shipping address or Payment Method (as defined below) associated with your order, and DSC is unable to resolve the problem, we may notify you via email using the address associated with your account. It is important that you keep your information current with an accurate email address that you regularly check. If problems arise with your order that we cannot resolve, your order may be cancelled and we may not be able to deliver future Products until the problem has been resolved.
3.5 Product Pricing
The price that we will charge you for the Products and Subscriptions may vary based on the number of Products you select for each shipment and, to the extent applicable, any discount, promotion or offer. Pricing for Products and Subscriptions (including any applicable postage and packaging fees) can be found on the DSC Services. You may view or customise the Products in each shipment by logging into your account and visiting the 'My Subscriptions' page or cart. If you add to or remove Products from a shipment, or change your Subscription, this may change the price that we will charge you for the Products and shipment, including postage and packaging.
We reserve the right to change prices for Products and Subscriptions at any time, and we do not provide price protection or refunds in the event of promotions or price decreases. However, where you have a recurring Subscription with us, we will provide you with 30 days' notice of price increases which affect the Products included in your current shipment. We will do this by sending you an email to tell you about the price increase, including when it will take effect. If you do not wish to continue to receive the relevant Product(s) at the increased price, then you must permanently remove the Product(s) from your shipment in accordance with Section 4.3 below or cancel your Subscription in accordance with Section 4.4 below. You must do this at least one (1) working day before the first date we dispatch Products to you after the price change takes effect. Unless you permanently remove the relevant Product(s) or cancel your Subscription, then you will be charged the increased price for the Product(s) for all deliveries of the Product(s) after the date on which the price change takes effect.
3.6 Payment
We will charge your credit, debit, or other DSC-accepted payment method (“Payment Method") on your initial order and then again in advance of each delivery included in your Subscription. All payments must be authorised by the relevant card issuer and are subject to any additional security steps required by the relevant card network (e.g. Visa or Mastercard).
3.7 Trials and Promotions
Your Membership may (at DSC’s sole option) start with a promotional trial period ("Trial"), which allows you to receive trial-sized or other promotional Product(s) (a “Starter Set”) at a reduced price based on the Membership you choose. You may also choose to add additional Products to your shipment or order on a one-time or recurring basis (“Add-On Products”). At that time, DSC will charge your Payment Method for the price, and any postage and packaging (if applicable), of the Starter Set and any Add-On Products selected. For combinations with other discount, promotions, or offers, restrictions may apply. DSC reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine your Trial eligibility.
Unless you cancel your Subscription or make changes to your shipment in accordance with these Terms, then at the end of the Trial:
- You will receive a Subscription of full-size Products delivered periodically based on the sign up offer or user defined Subscription frequency and/or Products you chose at the time you signed up for the Trial (each a "Restock Box"); and
- DSC will charge your Payment Method for the applicable Restock Box – based on the Product(s), Subscription type and frequency you selected, and any Add-On Products you select for each shipment - at the end of the Trial and then again prior to each delivery,
- deliveries of your Subscription and charges for that Subscription will recur on a subscription basis, in line with the period chosen at the time you signed up for the Trial until you select a different option in accordance with these Terms.
If you do not wish to be charged the fees for your Subscription at the end of the Trial, then you must cancel your Subscription prior to the end of the Trial period. To view the specific details of your Subscription, including frequency of shipments and next ship date, visit our website and click the ‘Account’ page. If you decide to check out as a guest you’ll need to claim your account to view the specific details of your Membership on your ‘Account’ page, including frequency of shipments and next ship date. To view your next shipment price, shipment contents, and ship date, click on ‘Manage.’ We may authorise your Payment Method through various methods, including authorising it for fees up to the fees for your Subscription, as soon as you register. In some instances, your available balance or credit limit may be reduced to reflect the authorisation during your Trial period. However, if you cancel during the Trial period you will not be charged for any Subscription after the end of the Trial.
You will not receive a notice from us that your promotional pricing (which may be reduced during a Trial period) has ended or that the standard rate portion of your Subscription has begun. To avoid being charged after the expiration of your Trial, you must cancel your Subscription prior to the end of the Trial period. We will continue to charge your Payment Method for your Subscription, on a periodic basis (depending on the Subscription period you select, from the options we make available to you), until you cancel your Subscription.
DSC may carry out discounts, promotions, or offers from time to time. These discounts, promotions, or offers will have rules displayed clearly that reflect how the discount, promotion, or offer will run.
DSC reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to withdraw or modify any Product, Subscription, Membership, Trial or other discount, offer, or promotion at any time without prior notice and with no liability where it is lawful to do so. However, you will never be charged standard Membership fees before the expiry of the Trial period you signed up for.
3.8 Deliveries
It will usually take one to two (1-2) working days for us to process your order. We will send you a dispatch confirmation by email. You can then usually expect your order within four to eight (4-8) working days. It usually takes four to eight (4-8) working days to deliver each Subscription in your Membership after the date we take payment for that Subscription.
To view your order history, delivery frequency and next anticipated dispatch date, please log in to your account and visit the 'Account' pages. If you have not received your order within eight (8) working days, then please contact us at [email protected].
Delivery will be to the address specified in your order. You are responsible for the Products and all risk in the Products passes to you at the time they are delivered in accordance with these Terms.
3.9 Your Legal Rights and our Goodwill Refund Policy
You have certain legal rights in relation to Products and Subscriptions which you buy from us. Your legal rights include:
- certain rights to cancel your Products, Subscription or order – see Section 4.4 below;
- the right to receive Products which are: (a) as described and match information we provided to you (and any sample seen or examined by you); (b) of satisfactory quality; and (c) fit for any particular purpose made known to us; and
- the right to receive services supplied with reasonable skill and care.
If you wish to exercise any of your legal rights or you have a question about the quality of any Product you have ordered, then please contact us at [email protected]. For more information on your legal rights please visit the Citizens Advice website www.adviceguide.org.uk or call the Citizens Advice consumer helpline on 03454 04 05 06.
In addition to your legal rights, we operate a goodwill refund policy. Under our goodwill refund policy, if you are dissatisfied with one of our Products for any reason, we will refund the amount paid for that Product in your most recent delivery (if you received a discount, promotion, or offer, then the amount we will refund is the discounted price). Refund requests must be made directly to us at [email protected] within thirty (30) days of the date of purchase. If we ask you to do so, you must return the Product in accordance with the instructions which we give to you. We cannot be responsible for Products that you return to us which are damaged or lost in transit to DSC, so we advise you to return your Product(s) using a tracked delivery method. Promptly following DSC’s receipt of your request (typically within five (5) working days) or, if applicable, promptly following return of your Product(s), DSC will credit the amount paid for the Product(s) which you are dissatisfied with (less any postage and packaging costs/fees related to the original purchase, which are non-refundable) to the Payment Method you used to make the original purchase. However, DSC does not control when a specific credit card or Payment Method company processes a chargeback transaction. You are responsible for contacting your Payment Method company, if you have questions about the status of the chargeback.
Under our goodwill refunds policy, we reserve the right not to provide a refund for a request that is received by DSC more than thirty (30) days after the date of original delivery. If we notice a suspicious pattern of claims under our goodwill refunds policy (for example, if a Member is claiming multiple refunds on the same Product or making a suspicious number of claims across multiple Products), then we may decline to provide a refund and/or terminate that Member's Membership. We also do not provide a refund for returned Products that are damaged due to misuse, lack of care, mishandling, accident, abuse or other abnormal use. Our goodwill refund policy does not apply to e-gift cards. This does not affect any of your legal rights highlighted above and in Section 4.4 below.
- MEMBERSHIP TERMS AND CANCELLATION POLICY
4.1 Subscription; Automatic Renewal
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT EACH SUBSCRIPTION AUTOMATICALLY RENEWS UNLESS YOU CANCEL IT OR WE SUSPEND OR TERMINATE IT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE TERMS.
When you sign up for a Subscription, you will have the opportunity to choose (a) the Products included in each Restock Box (subject to availability); and (b) the frequency of each delivery/payment under your Subscription (from the options provided at the time you sign up). Your chosen period between deliveries/payments is referred to as your "Subscription Period" in these Terms (your Subscription Period will be selected at the time you sign up or until you change it in accordance with these Terms). Your first Subscription Period will run from the date scheduled for your first delivery (or, if you purchase a 'Starter Box' and sign up for a Trial period, the date of expiry of your Trial period).
DSC will automatically renew your Subscription and charge your Payment Method for your next delivery of a Subscription and/or Restock Box, at the end of any Trial period and then at the end of each Subscription Period, unless we or you cancel your Subscription in accordance with these Terms. The charges will be for your applicable Subscription and/or Restock Box, excluding any Products you 'snooze' or remove in accordance with these Terms, plus any additional Products you choose and any applicable postage and packaging costs. You authorise this renewal and recharge by agreeing to the automatic renewal of your Subscription and these Terms during the Member sign-up process.
To avoid being charged for the automatic renewal of your Subscription and your next delivery of a Subscription, you must cancel your Subscription in accordance with Section 4.4. We will continue to bill your Payment Method on a recurring basis (depending on your Subscription and the Product selections you make) until you cancel.
4.2 Pausing and Resuming Subscription, Discontinuing Products
Your right to pause Products
DSC offers its members the ability to temporarily pause (or 'snooze') any one or more Products included in their Subscription (“Pause Period”) – you can do this by logging into your account, vising the 'Account' and 'My Subscription' pages, clicking the 'Pause Subscription' link. If you decide to check out as a guest you’ll need to claim your account to pause any one or more Products. Once you claim your account you can then do this by logging into your account, visiting the ‘My Account’ and ‘My Subscription’ pages, and clicking the ‘Pause Subscription’ link. During the Pause Period, a Member’s account will remain active, but they will not receive the Product(s) which they have paused in their next delivery of a Subscription. Products can only be paused for one delivery at a time (i.e., your next delivery) – if you want to pause a Product for more than one delivery, you can either log into your account and pause the Product again or you can permanently remove that Product from your Subscription in accordance with Section 4.3 and reinstate it at a later date. During the Pause Period, you will remain a member of DSC, continue to receive communications from DSC via email, and continue to receive your (and be charged for) the delivery of your Subscription (with the exception of the paused Product(s)).
The Membership fee we charge your Payment Method will be reduced, for your next Subscription, to reflect the fact that we will not be delivering the paused Product. If your purchase was entitled to a discount, promotion, or offer, then that discount, promotion, or offer, and any related change in pricing, will be recalculated (if applicable) for your next delivery, excluding the paused Product(s).
Requests to pause a Product must be received at least one (1) full working day prior to your next dispatch date to take effect for that delivery. Otherwise that request will take effect on the following delivery.
Following the delivery for which you paused a Product, the Pause Period will end and the Product which you paused will be included in subsequent deliveries of your Subscription (unless you pause it again or permanently remove it in accordance with Section 4.3 below). You may email any questions about the Pause Period to us at [email protected].
Our right to pause or discontinue Products
From time to time, we may pause a Product included in your shipment – for example if there is no availability of that Product at the time of dispatch. We may permanently discontinue Products included in your Subscription from time to time. If this applies to you, then we will send you an email, using the email address associated with your Membership. Your Payment Method will not be charged for Products which are not included in your Subscription, either because we have paused them or because they have been discontinued.
4.3 Membership Changes
You can:
- add or remove Products from your Subscription;
- change the frequency of your deliveries and payments; or
- change your next dispatch date,
at any time, from the options we make available from time to time, by logging into your account, visiting the 'Account' pages and making the changes. Any requests for a change to your Subscription must be received at least one (1) full working day prior to your next dispatch date to take effect for that delivery. Otherwise that request will take effect on the following delivery.
4.4 Membership & Subscription Cancellation
Cancelling your Membership means we end our agreement with you under these Terms and owe you no further obligations for supply of the Products or use of the DSC Services.
If you would like to cancel your Membership by deleting your account, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
Cancellation by us
We may cancel your Membership at any time if you do not make any payment to us when it is due and you still do not make payment within sixty (60) days of us reminding you that payment is due. We reserve the right to not dispatch any Products or shipment to you unless your payment for those Products, or that shipment, has cleared.
We may also cancel your Membership at any time if any of the following conditions are met: (a) if you do not, within a reasonable time of us asking for it, provide us with information that is necessary for us to provide the Product(s), for example, your valid postal address; (b) if you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the Product(s) to you; or (c) if we suspect, in our sole judgment, that a purchase was fraudulently made or an account fraudulently set up.
Cancellation or Modification by you
You may cancel or modify your Subscription at any time by logging on to your account page on the DSC website. If you decide to check out as a guest you’ll need to claim your account to cancel or modify your Subscription. Once you claim your account you may cancel or modify your Subscription at any time by logging into your ‘Account’ on the DSC website. For cancellations, click the ‘My Subscriptions’ link, and then click ‘Cancel Membership’. For modifications to your Subscription, click the ‘My Subscriptions’ link and then you may modify the number of items purchased, Subscription frequency, shipment date, you may skip your order until next Subscription cycle date, among other options. You must submit your cancellation or modification request at least one (1) full working day prior to your next shipping date to avoid being charged for that delivery. Cancellation or modification requests received by DSC through any other channels which DSC makes available to you for this purpose may take up to five (5) days to process – you may be charged for your next delivery if your cancellation request is not received in time for processing before your next dispatch date. If you have any problems, please email us at [email protected].
If you cancel or modify your Subscription within 24 hours of your initial order, we may either (a) fulfil your first delivery and charge your Payment Method (with the cancellation taking effect for subsequent deliveries); or (b) cancel your first delivery (where we are reasonably able to do so) and refund the Subscription fee charged to your Payment Method. This does not affect your legal rights to cancel and receive a refund as set out below.
Your legal rights to cancel
You have certain legal rights to cancel, which are in addition to our goodwill refunds policy set out in Section 3.9. Please note that, for health protection and/or hygiene reasons to the extent applicable, our Products are not suitable for return if they are unsealed, so your legal rights to cancel do not apply to Products which become unsealed after delivery.
You have a legal right to change your mind within fourteen (14) days of receiving any Product you order from us on a one-time only basis.
If you have a recurring Subscription, including regular deliveries of the same Products, then you have a legal right to change your mind about any Product(s) included in your Subscription, within fourteen (14) days of the first time you receive that Product in your shipment. You can also change your mind about all the Products included in your first shipment (and your Subscription as a whole), within fourteen (14) days of receiving your first shipment. (You do not have a legal right to change your mind about the subsequent, regular deliveries of the same Product included in your Subscription after the first delivery, but this does not affect your legal rights in relation to Products which are defective or our goodwill refunds policy set out in Section 3.9).
If you would like to exercise your legal rights to cancel, then you must inform us – for example, you can contact us at [email protected]. If you exercise your legal rights to cancel, then you must return the Product(s) to us without undue delay and within fourteen (14) days of informing us that you are exercising your right to cancel. You should return the Products to the address we specify and you must bear the costs of return.
If you exercise your legal rights to cancel, you will receive a refund of the fees you paid for the relevant Products or shipment. We will also reimburse any delivery charges you paid for the relevant Products or shipment, up to the value of standard delivery.
4.5 DSC Referrals
DSC may also offer a referral program (“Referral Program”) to provide its Members the opportunity to offer their friends, family, or other individuals with a unique referral ID link that a prospective Member can use to sign up for a Membership. DSC reserves the right to terminate this Referral Program at any time for any reason, or disqualify any Member or prospective Member at any time from participation in the Referral Program where it is lawful to do so. Members and prospective Members that wish to take part in the Referral Program are bound by these Terms, in addition to the promotion and Referral Program terms and conditions. To review the Referral Program terms and conditions, please visit Referral Promotion Terms. You can check your Personal Referral Link uk.dollarshaveclub.com/invite.
- LIABILITY OF DSC AND ITS LICENSORS AND PARTNERS
Nothing in these Terms shall exclude or limit DSC liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the Products (including the right to receive Products which are: as described and match information we provided to you and any sample or model seen or examined by you; of satisfactory quality; fit for any particular purpose made known to us; and supplied with reasonable skill and care) and for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.

If you have an issue with the quality of any of our Products or any of your legal rights, then please contact us at [email protected] or at Dollar Shave Club Limited, 1 Blossom Yard, Fourth Floor London, UK E1 6RS.
We are not responsible for losses not caused by our breach or a failure to provide the DSC Services due to any cause beyond our reasonable control which prevents us from fulfilling our obligations, including but not limited to fire, storm, riot, civil disturbance, war, nuclear accident, terrorist activity and acts of God. We are not liable for any damage or alteration to any device as a result of using the DSC Services. We will use reasonable efforts to make the DSC Services available to you at all times.
If we fail to comply with these Terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breach of these Terms or our failure to use reasonable care and skill. However, we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Losses are foreseeable where they could be contemplated by you and us at the time of entering these Terms.
We only supply the Product(s) for domestic and private use. If you use the Product(s) for any commercial, business or resale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
Nothing in these Terms shall affect your legal rights as a consumer.

The DSC Services may contain hyperlinks to other websites and webpages (“Third-Party Pages”), as well as to text, graphics, videos, images, music, sounds, and information belonging to or originating from other third-parties (collectively, “Third-Party Applications”). DSC does not investigate, monitor, or review any Third-Party Pages or Third-Party Applications to ensure their accuracy, completeness, or appropriateness.

You agree that DSC shall have no liability with respect to any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of any dealings between you and any third-party, or as a result of the presence of such third-party on the DSC Services.
The inclusion of any hyperlinks to any Third-Party Pages or Third-Party Applications on the DSC Services does not indicate DSC’s approval or endorsement thereof. These links are provided solely as a convenience or benefit to users. Your interactions with a third-party on the DSC Services, or based on such third-party’s participation or presence on the DSC Services, are solely between you and the third-party. DSC takes no responsibility for the content, ownership, or legality of any such linked third-party website. If you choose to leave the DSC Services to access any Third-Party Pages or Third-Party Applications, you do so at your own risk.
- MODIFICATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE DSC SERVICES
You agree that DSC may, in its sole discretion and at any time, modify, discontinue, or suspend its operation of the DSC Services, any part thereof, or any Contents, temporarily or permanently, with reasonable notice to you save for in an emergency.
Where we suspend the supply of Product(s) it may be for any of the following reasons: (a) to deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes; (b) update the Product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; and/or (c) to make changes to the Product as requested by you or which we have notified you of.
We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending supply of the Product(s), unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. If we have to suspend a Product, we will adjust the price so that you do not pay for Products while they are suspended. You may contact us to end your Membership with us if your Membership is dependent on a Product we have suspended, or we have told you we are going to suspend, in each case for a period of more than 30 days and we will refund any sums you have paid in advance for the Product in respect of the period after you end your Membership.
- GENERAL
DSC makes no claims that the Contents are appropriate or may be downloaded outside of the United Kingdom. Access to the Contents may not be legal by certain persons or in certain countries. If you access the DSC Services from outside the United Kingdom, you do so at your own risk and are responsible for compliance with the laws of your jurisdiction.
The following provisions survive the expiration or termination of these Terms for any reason whatsoever: Liability of DSC and its Licensors and Partners, Use Restrictions, User Submissions, Submission of Ideas and Choice of Law.
You may not transfer any of your rights under these Terms to any other person. We may transfer any of our rights under these Terms to any person or ask any person to fulfil any aspect of our obligations so long as performance of those obligations is not affected.
- CHOICE OF LAW
These Terms are governed by the law of England and Wales and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the English courts.

- ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to a customer’s satisfaction by writing to our customer service department at [email protected] or Dollar Shave Club, Attn: Customer Service, 1 Blossom Yard, Fourth Floor London, UK E1 6RS. In the unlikely event that our customer service department is unable to resolve a complaint you may wish to explore alternative dispute resolution as an alternative to legal action. Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. However if you are not satisfied with the outcome or do not wish to use this option, you are still able to bring legal proceedings.
