Please read these Terms of Service carefully before using www.artisanthai.com (the “Site”) operated by ArtisanThai (“we”, “us”, or “our”), a Thai herbal wellness e-commerce business based in Thailand. By accessing or using our Site, placing an order, or purchasing any product, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use our Site.
General
ArtisanThai operates as an online retail store offering Thai teas and herbal-style tea blends, along with selected related products. We reserve the right to update or modify these Terms at any time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the most current version of these Terms.
Product Information and Health Disclaimer
Our products are sold as teas and tea-style beverages. All information on this Site is provided for general informational and cultural purposes only and is not intended as medical advice or a substitute for professional healthcare guidance. Our products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition.
You should always consult a qualified healthcare professional before using any products that contain herbs, especially if you are pregnant or nursing, have a medical condition, or are taking any medication. Individual experiences may vary and no specific results are guaranteed.
Eligibility, Orders and Payment
By placing an order on our Site, you represent that you are of legal age in your jurisdiction to enter into a binding contract and that you are purchasing for personal use and not for unauthorised resale.
All prices are listed in USD unless otherwise stated. We reserve the right to change prices, correct errors, or update product information at any time without prior notice. We also reserve the right to refuse, limit, or cancel any order, including for suspected fraud, misuse, or pricing/stock errors.
Payment must be received in full before orders are processed and shipped. We accept major credit and debit cards and may offer other payment methods from time to time. By providing payment details, you confirm that you are authorised to use the selected payment method and that the information you provide is accurate and complete.
Payment Security: All card payments are processed through PCI-DSS Level 1 certified payment service providers (including Stripe, Omise, and/or PayPal). ArtisanThai does not store, process, or transmit your full card details on our own servers. All card data is encrypted and handled exclusively by our certified payment processors in accordance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS).
UK Consumer Rights and Distance Selling
If you are purchasing from the United Kingdom, you may have additional rights under the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. Subject to the exceptions below, UK consumers generally have a right to cancel a distance contract within 14 days of receiving the goods (the “cooling-off period”) and to receive a full refund. This right does not apply to:
- Sealed goods that have been opened after delivery which are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons (such as food and tea products that have been opened or used).
- Goods that have been clearly personalised or custom-made to your specification.
To exercise your right to cancel, please contact us within 14 days of receiving your order via our contact page. Returned goods must be in their original, unopened condition. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer unless the item is defective or incorrect. Once we receive and inspect the returned goods, we will process your refund within 14 days.
Shipping and Delivery
We ship internationally from Thailand to selected countries. Shipping times and costs vary by destination, shipping method, and local postal or courier services. Any delivery times displayed at checkout or in order confirmations are estimates only and are not guaranteed.
Delivery may be affected by customs processing, local postal services, or other factors outside our control. The customer is responsible for any applicable import duties, taxes, or customs fees charged by their country’s authorities. ArtisanThai is not liable for delays, holds, or additional charges imposed by customs or third-party carriers.
Returns and Refunds
We want you to be satisfied with your purchase. If you receive a damaged or incorrect item, please contact us within the timeframe stated in our Refund and Return Policy, including clear photographic evidence and your order details.
Eligibility for refunds, replacements, and any applicable shipping cost responsibilities are governed by our full Refund and Return Policy, which forms part of these Terms of Service. Due to the nature of food and tea products, opened or used items generally cannot be returned for hygiene and safety reasons unless they are confirmed to be defective. Please refer to our Refund and Return Policy for complete details.
Refunds, where applicable, will be processed to the original payment method used at the time of purchase. We aim to process all eligible refunds within 14 days of approving the return or refund request.
Chargebacks and Payment Disputes
We are committed to resolving any payment issues directly and promptly. If you have a concern about a charge, we encourage you to contact us first at support@artisanthai.com before initiating a chargeback or payment dispute with your card issuer or payment provider. Most concerns can be resolved quickly and to your satisfaction without the need for a formal dispute.
Filing a chargeback without first attempting to resolve the issue with us directly may constitute a breach of these Terms. We reserve the right to dispute fraudulent or unjustified chargebacks and to provide our payment processors and card networks with full transaction evidence in response.
Customer Accounts (if applicable)
If you create an account on our Site, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login details and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify us promptly of any unauthorised use of your account or any other security breach. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that are misused or used in violation of these Terms.

Our total liability to you for any claim arising out of or relating to a purchase from the Site shall not exceed the amount you actually paid for the specific product giving rise to the claim.
Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law (including applicable consumer protection laws in your jurisdiction).
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless ArtisanThai and our officers, employees, and partners from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to your breach of these Terms or your misuse of the Site or our products.

We aim to resolve any complaints or disputes quickly and fairly. If you have a complaint, please contact us first using the details in the “Contact Us” section below. UK consumers may also use alternative dispute resolution (ADR) services. For online disputes within the EU or UK, the European Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform is available at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms of Service are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Thailand, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising under or in connection with these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Thailand, except where mandatory consumer protection laws in your country of residence provide otherwise (including, for UK consumers, rights under applicable UK law).
Severability
If any provision of these Terms of Service is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
