You may not copy (except as expressly permitted by these Terms) or publish the Website for others to copy, decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble, attempt to derive the source code of, or modify, or create derivative works of the Website or Service, or any updates, or part thereof (except as and only to the extent any foregoing restriction is prohibited by applicable law or to the extent as may be permitted by the licensing terms governing use of any open source components included with the Website, if any). Any attempt to do so is a violation of our rights. If you breach this restriction, you may be subject to prosecution and damages.

If you place an order through the Website, you represent and warrant that you are a bona fide end-user customer and will not deliver, sell or otherwise distribute Maison Miru products or purchase Maison Miru products for commercial purposes or any other commercial benefit. If we believe, in our sole discretion, that an order would violate the terms of the preceding sentence or that a User is engaging in fraudulent, objectionable or grey market activities, we may refuse such order.

5. Product Availability; Quantity

All orders placed through the Website are subject to availability and acceptance by Maison Miru. Maison Miru reserves the right to change the products listed on the Website without prior notice and/or may limit from time to time the quantity of Maison Miru products that may be ordered by a User in a single buying session. The product pages of the Website can provide you with information regarding products that are currently available. Products that are unavailable may display a “Coming Soon” or “Out of Stock” notice, as applicable, on the product pages. Maison Miru may modify or discontinue any products on the Website. If Maison Miru discontinues a product you have ordered, Maison Miru will give you a full refund for any product purchased but not yet shipped.

6. Prices and Taxes

All prices shown on the Website are in U.S. Dollars. Maison Miru reserves the right to modify prices at any time without prior notice. The price of a product displayed on the Website at the time Maison Miru provides you with confirmation of your order will be honored. Sales and use taxes will vary based on the location to which products are being shipped. The actual sales tax associated with your purchase will be calculated at the time your order is to be shipped. Please note that changes to applicable law between the date your order is placed and the date you are sent a shipping confirmation may result in changes to the sales tax associated with your purchase.

7. Payment

Maison Miru uses Shopify to process all payments. We accept payment via all major credit cards. When placing an order on the Website, you will need to enter your payment details on the appropriate form, as prompted. Maison Miru is prohibited under U.S. law from making sales of its goods to individuals or companies designated on the Office of Foreign Assets Controls Specially Designated Nationals List, or to countries sanctioned by the U.S. Any such transactions will be declined.

Maison Miru takes reasonable measures – including administrative, technical, and physical measures – to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of the data you transmit to us. Any transmission is at your own risk and we cannot be held liable. For more information about how we use and protect your information, please view our Privacy Policy.

8. Shipping Policy

Maison Miru ships its products worldwide, using USPS First Class for US deliveries and DHL International for international deliveries.  We offer free standard shipping on all US orders $50 and over.  On US orders below $50, we offer flat rate shipping of $6.99.  We offer flat rate shipping on all international orders, and prices vary by country. Orders are typically fulfilled and shipped within 1-3 business days of purchase.  We ship from Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. You will be charged at the time the order is placed. When your order ships, we will email you a shipping confirmation.

We require a signature upon delivery for fine jewelry orders over $200 and all international orders over $200. If you won’t be home to sign for your package, we can remove the signature requirement.  However, if we remove the signature requirement, we unfortunately can’t assist in the event the package is lost or stolen in transit.

Please be aware that all international orders, regardless of shipping method, may be subject to additional duties and import taxes upon delivery. These fees are calculated by customs officials, and are difficult to estimate prior to shipment. Duties and taxes are not included in the prices listed on our Website. Please also be aware that delays in customs are becoming increasingly common. Packages may take longer to arrive at international destinations, and we cannot control or prevent this type of delay.

Please note that Maison Miru does not ship to APO/FPO addresses or hotels.

If you have specified a recipient who is not you for delivery purposes (for example, as a gift) then you understand and accept that delivery at that address is evidence of delivery and fulfillment of the sale contract by Maison Miru in the same way as if the goods had been delivered to you.

9. Return and Exchange Policy

• Returns: We accept returns of most undamaged items within thirty (30) days of purchase. Custom items and items marked “Final Sale,” however, are not returnable. Unauthorized returns may be returned to the sender. Refunds are issued in the original form of payment for all purchases. To begin the return process, please contact us at help@maisonmiru.com to request a Return Authorization (RA) Number. You will be responsible for arranging to have the item(s) returned to us, and for any costs incurred. We recommend that you use a trackable service to return your items to us, as we are not responsible for items which do not reach us. Please send all returns to: Maison Miru, 350 Bleecker Street, Suite 6KL, New York, NY 10014, USA.  Refunds will be issued within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of the returned item. 

• Exchanges: We accept exchanges of most undamaged items within thirty (30) days of purchase. Custom items and items marked “Final Sale,” however, are not subject to exchange. Exchanges are not automatic because our stock is limited. To inquire about exchanging your purchase for an alternative item, please contact us at help@maisonmiru.com. If you have received an item from Maison Miru as a gift, you can request an exchange or store credit in for the value of the purchased item. Please contact us at help@maisonmiru.com to arrange your exchange.
