We recommend using a trackable shipping method when returning an item. Nuvale cannot accept responsibility for return parcels lost in transit before they are received by us.

Your bank or payment provider may require additional processing time before the funds appear in your account
Where a return does not meet the requirements of this policy, we will contact you and explain the reason.
6. Exchanges
If you receive a defective, damaged, or incorrect item and would prefer a replacement instead of a refund, please let us know when contacting us.
Where appropriate and stock is available, we will arrange a replacement.
If a replacement is unavailable, we may offer a refund instead.
7. Damaged, Defective or Incorrect Items
If your order arrives damaged, defective, or you receive the incorrect item, please contact us as soon as reasonably possible after delivery.
For the fastest assistance, we recommend contacting us within 48 hours of delivery and providing photos or videos clearly showing the issue.
Once the issue has been assessed, we will arrange an appropriate solution, which may include a replacement, repair, or refund depending on the circumstances and your rights under applicable law.
