Are my details secure?
Yes absolutely. Chiltern IT utilises a U.S Government data encryption standard to store your credit card details securely on their own servers located at a restricted site. These servers are not directly connected to the Internet and are protected by extensive hardware and software.
For your added security, you are also protected by Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Card act. This stipulates that as long as your transaction is above £100 and less than £30,000 you have the right to make a claim if breach of contract or misrepresentation occurs. Please note some payment cards are exempt from this act, contact your card issuer for more details.
When processing your payments details we communicate with the world's largest credit/debit card authorisation provider using 128 bit SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology. This is signified by the padlock displayed in your browser window. The session created is secure and ensures that no other person or machine on the Internet can interpret the transaction details.
To process an order, we require the following:
The billing address entered on the site must be the registered address of the credit/debit card being used for the transaction, and is the address that all correspondence will be sent to. Please also note that your first order must be shipped to this billing address to confirm your identity. Any subsequent orders can be shipped to a delivery address of your choosing.
A Password of your choosing is also required to make a transaction on our site. Although there are no specific requirements for the password we recommend the following guidelines for your protection:
Our site utilises a shopping basket mechanism which you simply add items to either by browsing our product catalogue or by directly searching for them. Details of the item, including a picture and stock and pricing information can be seen on the item summary page. On this page you can add items to your virtual basket and then choose to Continue Shopping or Checkout. The Continue Shopping option allows you to add further items where as Checkout allows you to finalise your order by confirming your billing address, delivery address and payment method. These details can be stored so that you do not have to enter them again for future orders. Once your order has been placed successfully you will receive a confirmation email. Another email is sent to you once your order has been despatched from our warehouse.
If for any reason you are unhappy with your purchase from CHIP you can return it to us within 7 days of receipt. The item(s) should be in original condition and suitably packaged (original packaging if possible) to receive a full refund. Goods need to be returned to us at your expense once approved by our returns department.
Faulty items can always be returned within their warranty period for an equivalent replacement. The standard periods are 30 days for used items and 90 days for new items, however there may be some exceptions to this. Items need to be returned to us suitably packaged (original packaging if possible). If items returned as faulty are found to be fully functional a restocking fee may apply. Please also note that your warranty may become void if the item(s) has been damaged due to improper use, packaging or transport.
All returns requests need to be submitted to CHIP via our website or by email so that we can issue you RAN (Returns Authorisation Number) before returning the item(s) to us.

These guidelines do vary when a business-to-business transaction is being made. Due to the nature of the parts we sell CHIP only uses couriers to deliver its goods. This also ensures goods are insured while in transit and handled with care when necessary. When the goods reach your own premises or of those you have specified a signature will be required to confirm receipt. If the delivery is unsuccessful on the first instance, a card will be left by the driver. With this card, you have the option to request delivery again or collect from the appropriate depot. If on the second attempted delivery the item is not accepted, it will be returned back to CHIP. A third delivery attempt will be chargeable.
