Privacy
At Eight Paws we take your privacy seriously. We will only use the personal information you provide us to process your order. When you place an order with us your name, address, phone number and email address will be required. This is collected by PayPal, along with your credit card details at checkout and will only be used to process your order.

We recommend you join our mailing list as we would love to keep you up to date with all our new products and specials. If you would like to unsubscribe at any time please email us at info@eightpaws.co.nz.
Payment
We trust PayPal for all our credit card transactions. Paypal accepts Visa, MasterCard and Amex. PayPal automatically encrypts your information using a Secure Sockets Layer, which has an encryption key length of 128 bits (the highest level commercially available). This means that when you purchase from us your payment is as safe as possible.
We will send your purchase to you just as soon as we have received payment in full for your order. Once you have successfully checked out and made your payment an automatic email will be sent to you confirming that we have received details of your order.
We will then confirm your order has been accepted and outline the delivery date details. For information about delivery dates please refer to our shipping section.
Availability
Please note that at Eight Paws we strive to ensure that all our products on the website are in stock and ready for dispatch, but there may be items which are limited editions or times when due to demand, items will be unavailable (or on back-order). If this occurs you will be notified by Eight Paws and advised of the likely length of delay or other product alternatives. You will also be given the option of placing a pre order. You can choose to make payment for the purchase in advance to ensure you have priority of receiving the item, or you can cancel your order and you will be refunded in full.
