OZIKO’s Returns and Exchanges Policy

Reasons for our policy :

Hello and welcome to the OZIKO online store. Thank you for your interest in purchasing our products and encouraging your artists. In order to complete your purchases and avoid any inconvenience, there are certain steps you need to take before finalizing and sending your order. Our Return and Exchange Policy is described below. You must read it and, if you accept it, press the "I ACCEPT THE TERMS " or “I ACCEPT” button.

This Policy applies to OZIKO, as well as its branches, affiliates, divisions, successors, and their employees, officers, agents and other representatives.

If you do not accept the terms and conditions of OZIKO's returns and exchanges policy, please do not press the "I ACCEPT THE TERMS FOR RETURNS" button, leave the store and the site, refrain from using OZIKO's services, and do not purchase any of the products offered.

As you will see, you are responsible to make some very simple checks, to make sure that you will receive the right item you ordered, whether it is for CDs, DVDs, vinyl records, digital files, clothing, or accessories (very important for clothing size, colour etc.).

We devote all our best efforts and, unless when the images are provided by our manufacturers, we use state-of-the-art technology to ensure that what you see online is the product you will receive. However, there may be times when the images or photographs of the items or products you see, or their description, may not be a 100% match with what you will receive (such as, for example, colors, printing and/or appearance). It is therefore possible to encounter certain differences. This is out of our control.

From time to time, we may change manufacturer for some products. In these cases, it is necessary to allow time to process and update our site online. In such cases, some products may not be available temporarily or even discontinued. The appropriate update will be made as soon as possible.

Important note : Our Returns and Exchanges Policy is subject to change, or may be modified from time to time. In any case, you will be notified of any such changes.
