1. Order Processing Time

Orders are typically processed within [1-3] business days of being placed, excluding weekends and public holidays. During periods of high demand or promotions, processing may take longer; we will notify you of any significant delay.

Standard Shipping	[3-7] business days	[Calculated at checkout / Free over amount X]
Expedited Shipping	[2-3] business days	[Calculated at checkout]

Delivery times are estimates provided by our shipping carriers and are not guaranteed. [Company Name] is not responsible for delays caused by the carrier, customs, weather, or other events beyond our control.

3. Order Tracking

Once your order has shipped, you will receive a shipping confirmation email with a tracking number. You can also view your order status at any time by visiting Track Your Order or by logging into your account.

4. International Shipping

We currently ship to [list of countries/regions, or "select international destinations"]. International orders may be subject to import duties, taxes, and customs clearance fees levied by the destination country. These charges are the responsibility of the customer and are not included in the item price or shipping cost. We recommend checking with your local customs office for more information before placing an order.

5. Split Shipments

If your order contains multiple items, they may ship separately and arrive on different days, depending on availability. You will not be charged additional shipping fees for split shipments unless otherwise noted at checkout.

6. Address Accuracy

Please ensure your shipping address is complete and accurate at checkout. [Company Name] is not responsible for orders shipped to an incorrectly provided address. If you notice an error after placing your order, contact us immediately at [Support Email], we will do our best to update the address before the order ships, but cannot guarantee changes once an order has entered fulfillment.

7. Lost or Damaged Shipments

If your order arrives damaged, or if tracking shows delivery but you have not received your package, please contact us at [Support Email] within [7] days so we can investigate with the carrier and arrange a replacement or refund where appropriate.

8. Undeliverable or Refused Packages

If a package is returned to us as undeliverable, or is refused by the recipient, we will contact you to arrange reshipment (additional shipping charges may apply) or issue a refund minus original shipping costs, at our discretion.
