At Best UK Wholesaler, we are committed to responsible retailing. In compliance with UK law, our products can only be purchased by individuals aged 18 or over. This policy outlines our age verification process and explains why it’s necessary.
Legal Requirements
As of October 1, 2015, it became illegal in the UK for retailers to sell vaping products to anyone under 18. We are required by law to take reasonable steps to ensure our products are not sold to minors.
Checkout Verification
Our age verification process is simple and straightforward:
- During checkout, customers must tick a checkbox confirming they are 18 years of age or older.
- The exact wording on the checkbox is: “I confirm that I am at least 18 years old and legally able to purchase vaping products.”
Customer Responsibility
By ticking this box, customers are legally declaring that they meet the minimum age requirement. Providing false information regarding age is a breach of our terms of service.
Delivery Process
Age-restricted products will only be handed over to individuals who can prove they are of legal age.5.2. Delivery personnel are instructed to check ID if the recipient appears to be under 25.
Additional Measures
We reserve the right to request additional age verification if we have reason to believe a customer may be under 18.4.2 We may refuse to process an order if we suspect the purchaser is underage.
Customer Assurance
We do not collect or store any additional personal information solely for age verification purposes beyond what is necessary for order processing.5.2 Your personal information is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and UK data protection laws.
Failed Verification
If a customer fails to confirm their age by ticking the checkbox, they will not be able to complete their purchase.
Ongoing Compliance
We regularly review and update our age verification processes to ensure they remain effective and compliant with UK law.
