How can I use the site in compliance with the Amazon Conditions of Use and Sale?
By placing an order, you are declaring that you are 18 years of age or over. This is a requirement under our Conditions of Use and Sale, intended to support responsible purchasing.
If you are a minor and wish to browse our store or use our services, please inform your parent or legal guardian to ensure they are aware of, and agree to, your use of the store. We encourage parents and guardians to actively supervise their child's online activity. Any purchases must be made by an adult, and the adult account holder is responsible for all activity conducted through their account, including any order placed.
What are age-restricted items?
Certain items in our store are age-restricted by law, such as alcohol, e-cigarettes, and bladed items. These require extra controls, such as verifying your age before purchase or at the point of delivery, or both.
For full details on how age verification works including online verification, delivery procedures, and what to expect when receiving an age-restricted item, please visit our Age-Restricted Items help page.
What should I do if I become aware of a minor using Amazon without the consent of a parent or guardian?
