- You confirm and warrant that your username and password are exclusively for personal use and shall not be shared with any third party.
- As a security measure, you agree to provide the correct username and password when placing orders. Failure to do so will result in denied access.

Additionally, you agree not to employ any automated or manual process, including robots, spiders, or similar tools, to monitor, copy, distribute, or modify the Website or its contents without the prior written consent of an authorized representative from Polymath Solar (except for standard search engine technology utilized by Internet search engines to direct users to this Website).

- You are prohibited from displaying, publishing, copying, printing, posting, or using the Website and its contents in any manner without the express prior written consent of an authorized Polymath Solar representative.
- Conclusion of Sales and Stock Availability
- Users who have registered may submit orders for Goods, which may be accepted or rejected by Polymath Solar or the Third-Party Seller. The acceptance of an order by Polymath Solar or the Third-Party Seller depends on factors such as the availability of Goods, the accuracy of information related to the Goods (including, but not limited to, the price), and the receipt of payment or payment authorization by Polymath Solar for the Goods.
- IMPORTANT: The acceptance of your order by Polymath Solar or the Third-Party Seller will be confirmed when the Goods are delivered to you or when you are allowed to collect them. Only at this point will a sales agreement between you and Polymath Solar or the Third-Party Seller be established (referred to as the “Sale”). This remains true regardless of any communication from Polymath Solar confirming your order or payment. If Polymath Solar or the Third-Party Seller rejects your order, it will be cancelled, and you will be promptly refunded for any amounts paid.
- You have the option to cancel an order at any time before receiving a dispatch or delivery notification for the Goods. After receiving the Goods or collecting them, you may return them in accordance with the Returns Policy.
- Placing Goods in a wish list or shopping basket without completing the purchase process does not constitute an order for those Goods. Therefore, Goods may be removed from the shopping basket if they are no longer available or if their price changes without notice. Polymath Solar and the Third-Party Seller cannot be held liable if such Goods become unavailable or if their price changes when you complete or attempt to complete the purchase later.
- You acknowledge that the stock of all Goods offered is limited and that pricing may change at any time without prior notice. In the case of Goods sold by Polymath Solar, Polymath Solar will make reasonable efforts to monitor stock levels and discontinue offers on the Website when stock is no longer available. However, stock availability cannot be guaranteed. If Goods become unavailable after you have placed an order, Polymath Solar will notify you, and you will be entitled to a refund of any amount already paid for those Goods.
- For Goods sold by a Third-Party Seller, Polymath Solar relies on inventory information provided by the relevant Third-Party Seller and assumes no liability for inaccuracies in this information. Consequently, if you order Goods from a Third-Party Seller that are actually sold out, any resulting disputes should be resolved between you and the relevant Third-Party Seller, and your respective rights and obligations will be as set out in these Terms and Conditions.
- Certain Goods may not be purchased for resale. If we suspect that any such Goods are being purchased for resale, we reserve the right to cancel your order with immediate notice.
- Payment
- We provide secure online payment options. Card acquiring and security Card transactions will be acquired for Polymath Solar via PayGate (Pty) Ltd who are the approved payment gateway for all South African Acquiring Banks. DPO PayGate uses the strictest form of encryption, namely Secure Socket Layer 3 (SSL3) and no Card details are stored on the website. Users may go to www.paygate.co.za to view their security certificate and security policy.
- Customer details separate from card details Customer details will be stored by Polymath Solar separately from card details which are entered by the client on DPO PayGate’s secure site. For more detail on DPO PayGate refer to www.paygate.co.za.
- Transaction currency is South African Rand (ZAR) at the time of launching this service.
- Whether the Goods are sold by Polymath Solar or a Third-Party Seller, you can make payments for Goods using the following methods, subject to their availability and your eligibility to use them:
- Debit card: When paying with a debit card, we may require additional information for authorization and validation of payment. In such cases, we are authorized to withhold delivery until we receive the necessary information and obtain authorization for the payment. Failure to obtain authorization will result in the cancellation of your order. You warrant that you have full authorization to use the supplied debit card for payment and that it has sufficient available funds to cover all costs incurred for the services on the Website.
- Credit card: When paying with a credit card, Visa or Mastercard, we may require additional information for authorization and validation of payment. In such cases, we are authorized to withhold delivery until we receive the necessary information and obtain authorization for the payment. Failure to obtain authorization will result in the cancellation of your order. You warrant that you have full authorization to use the supplied credit card for payment and that it has sufficient available funds to cover all costs incurred for the services on the Website.
- Direct bank deposit or electronic funds transfer: If you choose to pay via direct bank deposit or electronic funds transfer, payment must be made within five (5) days of placing your order. Polymath Solar will not accept your order if payment is not received within this period.
- SiD Secure EFT. This is secure immediate payment from your online banking. The same encryption technology that is used with credit cards, is used with SiD Secure EFT. With SiD, you can pay directly from your internet banking. Your funds will clear immediately – no proof of purchase required. The transaction will be completed immediately.
- Polymath Solar Vouchers.
- You may contact our Help Centre to obtain a complete record of your payment. We will also send you email notifications regarding your order and payment.
- After selecting your payment method (except for cash on delivery or direct bank deposit), you will be directed to a secure payment site to complete the payment for the applicable purchase price of the Goods.
- Delivery of Goods
- Polymath Solar provides two methods of delivery:
- Courier; and/or
- Self-collection.
- For detailed information on delivery, please refer to our Help Centre, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Please be aware that our delivery charges are subject to change without prior notice, so we advise checking the Help Centre for the most current information. The applicable delivery charges will be visible in your cart during the checkout process.
- Upon accepting your order, Polymath Solar or the Third-Party Seller will deliver the Goods to you as promptly as possible but within a maximum of 30 (thirty) days from the receipt of your payment ("Delivery Period"). In case we are unable to deliver within this period, we will notify you. Subsequently, within 7 (seven) days of receiving such notice, you have the choice to either cancel your order for the Goods or proceed. Opting to cancel your order will result in a reimbursement of the purchase price.
- Polymath Solar's responsibility for delivering a product to you is considered fulfilled once the product is delivered to the physical address specified by you for the order's delivery. Polymath Solar shall not be liable for any loss or unauthorized use of the product after delivery to the nominated physical address.
- Delivery is within the borders of South Africa only, at the time of launching this service.
- Polymath Solar provides two methods of delivery:
- Errors
- We make every reasonable effort to accurately display the description, availability, purchase price, and delivery charges of Goods on the Website. Nevertheless, if any errors, not due to our gross negligence, appear on the Website, we shall not be held responsible for any losses, claims, or expenses associated with a transaction based on such errors. However, in the case of an incorrect purchase price, we will refund you for the amount already paid, or as otherwise detailed in the Returns Policy.
- Polymath Solar will not be bound by any incorrect information about our Goods as displayed on third-party websites.
- Gift Vouchers & Coupons
- Periodically, Polymath Solar may offer physical or electronic gift vouchers ("Gift Vouchers") and promotional coupons or discounts ("Coupons") for use on the Website when purchasing Polymath Solar Goods. Gift Vouchers and Coupons are redeemable only during their validity period, and their expiry dates cannot be extended.
- Periodically, Polymath Solar may offer physical or electronic gift vouchers ("Gift Vouchers") and promotional coupons or discounts ("Coupons") for use on the Website when purchasing Polymath Solar Goods. Gift Vouchers and Coupons are redeemable only during their validity period, and their expiry dates cannot be extended.
- Daily Deals and Other Discounted Goods
- At times, we may offer certain Goods at discounted prices through various special deals, including Daily Deals, App Only Deals, Bundle Deals, or other temporary promotions (each referred to as a "Deal"). These Deals are subject to specific conditions outlined in these Terms and/or on the Website, which define the parameters of the Deal. When purchasing a product within the Deal's scope, you will pay the discounted price ("Deal Price") for that product.
- If a product falls outside the scope of a Deal, you will pay the standard (non-Deal) selling price on the Website ("Normal Price") for that product. For example, if you purchase more than one product within a Daily Deal, you will pay the Deal Price for the first product and the Normal Price for the subsequent products.
- Daily Deals are available at our discretion during specific hours on weekdays and weekends. Please note that Daily Deals have limited stock, and they may expire if the stock runs out.
- Quantities for Daily Deals are restricted, and once a Daily Deal is sold out, the relevant Goods may be available on the Website at their regular selling prices but not as a Daily Deal.
- We do not guarantee a specific level of savings; the extent of the discount or deal is at Polymath Solar's sole discretion.
- Each customer can purchase up to four units of each Daily Deal, limited to one order per day.
- Adding a Daily Deal to your cart or completing the order for a Daily Deal without payment does not reserve the item for you. Polymath Solar requires payment within 24 hours of placing your order for a Daily Deal; otherwise, your order will be cancelled.
- Polymath Solar reserves stock based on the order of payments received. Therefore, if you pay via EFT, there is a possibility that you may not secure the item if Polymath Solar receives your payment days later, and in the meantime, the Daily Deal sells out to customers who pay immediately.
- The List Price displayed for Daily Deals and other discounted Goods is a suggested retail price provided by the supplier. In cases where the supplier hasn't furnished a recommended retail price, an estimate may be offered. When a product is sold by a Third-Party Seller, the List Price may be set by that Third Party Seller.
- By purchasing a Daily Deal, you are also opting in for our Daily Deals newsletter as well as our general newsletter. You may opt out of these newsletters at any time, but opting out after purchase will not affect the value of the purchased Goods.
- Bundle Deals
- We may offer bundle deals for sale on the Website under the Bundle Deals tab. Each Bundle Deal will comprise two or more products combined either by us or as indicated on the Website.
- Any savings or discounts resulting from purchasing a Bundle Deal instead of its individual components separately may be applied to each component product individually at our discretion. The actual purchase price (after applying any applicable savings or discounts) for each component product will be communicated to you during checkout and recorded in your order history. This information is relevant to potential refunds for returned products within a Bundle Deal, following our Returns Policy.
- Third Party Sellers
- When Goods are sold by a Third-Party Seller, Polymath Solar will clearly indicate this on relevant product pages and checkout pages. In such instances, Polymath Solar acts solely as a platform to facilitate transactions between Third Party Sellers and Polymath Solar customers. Unless specified otherwise, Polymath Solar is neither the buyer nor the seller of these Goods.
- The Sale, formed upon acceptance of your order (as outlined in clause 6), for Goods sold by a Third-Party Seller, is solely between the registered user and the Third Party Seller. Polymath Solar is not a party to this sale.
- The fulfilment of orders from Third Party Sellers may be the responsibility of the Third Party, or Polymath Solar may handle the fulfilment of the Goods on behalf of the Third Party. The Third-Party Seller is also responsible for providing an invoice to the registered user, if required.
- Not all Third-Party Sellers are registered VAT (Value-Added Tax) vendors. Only registered VAT vendors among the Third-Party Sellers may charge VAT on Goods and issue a tax invoice. If a Third-Party Seller is not a registered VAT Vendor, they may not charge VAT on Goods and will not be able to issue a tax invoice.
- While Polymath Solar strives to provide a safe and consistent experience, Polymath Solar will manage any returns under the CPA or ECT Act on behalf of the Third-Party Seller according to Polymath Solar's own Returns Policy. If such a claim escalates into a dispute, Polymath Solar may attempt to resolve it but is not obligated to do so. Any disputes must be resolved directly between you and the relevant Third-Party Seller.
- Privacy Policy
- We value your privacy and will take all reasonable precautions to safeguard it, as detailed in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
