6A. Hello Hengist Subscriptions
- Hello Hengist is a weekly renewing food-box subscription. The plan price, first payment and first renewal date are displayed before payment.
- You may stop future renewals from your Hello Hengist account at any time. Cancellation normally takes effect at the end of the current paid period.
- A prepaid launch box may be cancelled for a full automatic refund until 28 August 2026 at 12:00. After that preparation cutoff, contact us and we will review the request, including any rights you have by law.
- Cancelling a subscription does not automatically refund a box that has already been paid for or entered preparation.
- Approved refunds are returned to the original payment method. Your bank or card provider controls when the credit appears.
- Report a missing, damaged, incorrect or unsafe box promptly. Depending on the circumstances, we will provide an appropriate replacement, credit or refund. This does not limit your statutory rights.
- Recipe, delivery-address and allergy details lock at the preparation cutoff shown in your account. Contact us immediately if an urgent correction is required after that time.
- The available delivery or collection schedule is displayed before checkout. Tell us promptly about access issues or a missed delivery; redelivery or collection arrangements depend on the circumstances and food-safety limits.
- We will not silently substitute a missing recipe where the change conflicts with recorded allergy or dietary information. If choices are incomplete, the policy displayed by the restaurant will determine whether staff must contact you or may make a suitable chef selection.
- We cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment. Customers with severe allergies must contact the restaurant before ordering so suitability and cross-contamination risks can be discussed.
You may cancel online from your Hello Hengist account or contact us using the email address or telephone number below.

All content on our website and materials are protected by copyright and other intellectual property rights. You may not use our content without permission.

We are not liable for:
- Any indirect or consequential losses

9. Changes to Terms
We may update these terms for future orders. We will clearly notify affected subscription customers of material changes before they apply. Changes do not remove rights already attached to a paid order.
