You agree to provide accurate and complete information when placing an order or contacting us.

4. Products and Services

Houston Gliders strives to provide accurate descriptions, photographs, prices, and information for all products and services offered through our website.

However, we cannot guarantee that every product image, color, description, or display will appear exactly the same on every device.

We reserve the right to:

  • Update or correct product descriptions and pricing.

  • Modify, discontinue, or limit the availability of products or services.

  • Limit quantities purchased when reasonably necessary.

  • Refuse or cancel orders when permitted by law, including orders involving pricing errors, suspected fraud, or unavailable inventory.

We will make reasonable efforts to notify you if an order is canceled after payment has been made and arrange any required refund.

5. Orders and Payments

When you place an order through our website, you agree that the information you provide is accurate and that you are authorized to use the selected payment method.

Orders are subject to acceptance and product availability. An order confirmation does not necessarily guarantee that an order has shipped.

Prices are displayed in the currency identified at checkout. Applicable taxes, shipping fees, and other disclosed charges may be added to your total.

Payments may be processed through third-party payment providers. Houston Gliders does not control the independent policies or systems of those providers.

We reserve the right to cancel or refuse an order when legally permitted. If payment has already been collected for a canceled order, any required refund will be issued to the original payment method or handled as required by applicable law.

6. Shipping and Delivery

Shipping options, estimated delivery times, and applicable charges will be presented where available during checkout or on the relevant website pages.

Delivery estimates are not guarantees unless expressly stated otherwise. Delays may occur because of carrier disruptions, weather, holidays, incorrect addresses, or other circumstances outside our reasonable control.

Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate shipping address. Additional charges resulting from incorrect address information or reshipping may apply where permitted by law and disclosed to the customer.

Any shipping, delivery, or lost-package concerns should be reported to Houston Gliders as soon as reasonably possible.

7. Returns, Refunds, and Exchanges

Returns, refunds, and exchanges are governed by our separate Return and Refund Policy, which should be reviewed before placing an order.

Please contact Houston Gliders for assistance with a damaged, defective, incorrect, or missing item.

Nothing in these terms is intended to limit any return, refund, warranty, or other right that cannot legally be excluded under applicable law.

8. Sugar Glider Care and Product Safety

Houston Gliders supports responsible sugar glider ownership and care.

Information provided on our website about sugar gliders, their behavior, habitat, nutrition, toys, accessories, or general care is intended for informational purposes only. It is not a substitute for advice from a qualified exotic-animal veterinarian.

Customers are responsible for evaluating whether a product is appropriate for their animals and for following product instructions, supervision recommendations, and applicable safety precautions.

Inspect toys, wheels, pouches, cages, and other accessories regularly for wear, damage, loose parts, or potential hazards. Discontinue use of any item that appears unsafe.

Houston Gliders does not guarantee that a product will be suitable for every animal or environment. Nothing in this section excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded.
