02 · TERMS OF SALE & USE
What happens when you order
Product characteristics, available variants, total price, taxes, shipping cost and delivery restrictions are shown before payment. Your order is an offer to buy. The contract is formed when VEDØY sends an order confirmation. A durable confirmation is sent to the email address supplied at checkout.
Checkout and payment are provided through Shopify and the payment methods displayed there. The payment provider may authorise or reserve the amount when you order and capture it in accordance with the method shown at checkout. VEDØY never stores complete payment-card details on this website.
Shopify checkout may also display Vedøy Collective policy links. For a Philosophy Curiosity order, this policy centre describes the applicable shop promise. If wording differs, mandatory consumer law and the protection most favourable to the consumer prevail to the extent required by law.
Prices can change before an order is placed, but not after confirmation. We may cancel and refund an order for an obvious pricing error, suspected fraud, unavailable production capacity or another lawful reason. Nothing here excludes rights that cannot legally be waived.
Apparel is produced on demand, so small non-material differences in screen colour or print placement can occur. This does not remove your rights when an item is faulty, materially different from its description or unsafe.
The games are learning and reflection experiences, not gambling and not medical, psychological, financial or legal advice. Random game outcomes never award discounts, money, products, credits or other economic prizes. Quote wording and attribution can vary by translation; the games are not academic editions.
Vedøy Login account terms
Vedøy Login is an optional account service for Philosophy Curiosity. The same account may be recognised across connected VEDØY services that use the shared Vedøy authentication database. You must provide an email address you control, keep your password confidential and tell us promptly if you believe the account has been misused. You may not use an account to break the law, interfere with the service or harm other people.
Creating an account requires you to tick a box confirming that you agree to these Terms and have read the Privacy Notice. We record the accepted Terms version, Privacy Notice version, service source and acceptance time so that the choice can be demonstrated. Privacy acknowledgement is not consent to marketing, and no marketing permission is bundled into account registration.
We may restrict or close an account where reasonably necessary for security, unlawful use or a material breach of these Terms. You may request account deletion by contacting us. Records that law requires us to retain, and limited security or consent evidence needed to establish legal claims, may be kept for the applicable period.
GAME RULES · VEDOY CREDITS
A free loyalty wallet, not money
Vedoy Credits are free promotional loyalty points. They have no cash value and cannot be bought, sold, transferred, withdrawn, gifted or converted to money. No purchase is necessary to earn them. The wallet limit is 500 credits.
- Daily practice
- Choose one daily focus to receive a fixed 10 credits, once per Oslo calendar day. If the wallet is close to its 500-credit limit, the award is reduced to the space available.
- Fair Casino
- Three reflection rounds are free each Oslo day. A maximum of five additional rounds can be played for 2 credits each, making an absolute limit of eight rounds per day. The random result selects only a reflection card and has no economic value.
- Fixed reward
- 100 credits can be exchanged deterministically for 50 NOK off one eligible Shopify order of at least 500 NOK. It is not a draw. Only one reward can be claimed every 30 days, codes cannot be combined unless checkout explicitly allows it, and each code expires on the date shown.
- Enforcement
- Balances, daily limits and reward claims are enforced by the shared Vedøy database. Manipulation, automation, duplicate accounts or attempts to bypass a limit may lead to reversal of promotional credits and proportionate account restriction.
If a technical error charges credits without delivering the promised fixed reward, contact us. We will investigate and restore the credits where the ledger confirms the error. We may prospectively adjust limits or end the programme with reasonable notice, but will not turn existing credits into a cash debt or retroactively attach a purchase requirement.
03 · PRODUCTION, SHIPPING & DELIVERY
Made after you order
Typical production is 3–10 business days. Indicative delivery after production is 3–8 business days in Norway, 5–12 in Europe and 7–20 elsewhere. The estimate shown at checkout or in the order confirmation is the relevant promise for your order. These ranges follow the current Vedøy Collective fulfilment policy and remain estimates, not guaranteed dates.
Available destinations, carrier options and the exact shipping charge are shown in Shopify checkout before payment. Tracking is provided by email when the carrier makes it available. Customs can add time. Lawful duties, import VAT or handling charges outside Norway may be collected from the recipient only where this is clearly disclosed before purchase and permitted by local law.
If no dispatch time is stated, we aim to ship without undue delay and within 30 days. If a promised time cannot be met, we will contact you with a revised date and a clear choice to accept the delay or cancel for a prompt refund. Risk remains with the seller until you or a person you designate receives the goods, except where mandatory law says otherwise.
Check the address before paying. If a parcel is returned because the customer supplied an incomplete or incorrect address, reasonable re-shipping costs may apply after we contact you. This does not apply where VEDØY or the carrier caused the addressing error.
Report a damaged, missing or materially delayed parcel to leander@vedoystudio.no with the order number. We will investigate with the carrier; carrier problems do not remove mandatory seller obligations. Do not send a return to the business address without receiving return instructions, because the relevant producer or return facility can vary by item.
04 · WITHDRAWAL, RETURNS & GUARANTEES
A made-to-order item is not automatically personalised
Consumers in Norway and the EEA normally have 14 days from physical receipt to withdraw from an online purchase of standard apparel without giving a reason. Producing a standard design only after an order is placed does not by itself remove that right. The exception applies only when goods are genuinely made to your specifications or clearly personalised.
Notify us within the withdrawal period and return the goods within 14 days after notice. We refund the product price and the least expensive standard outbound delivery option using the original payment method, normally within 14 days after notice. We may wait until the goods arrive or you provide proof of return. You pay the direct return cost when this was disclosed before purchase. You are responsible only for diminished value caused by handling beyond what is necessary to inspect the item.
Exceptions and condition
The statutory withdrawal right may be excluded for an item made to your individual specifications or clearly personalised, and for a sealed hygiene-sensitive item after the seal is broken where the legal conditions are met. An exception will be identified before purchase; merely selecting a standard size, colour or catalogue design is not treated as personalisation.
Preference returns should be unused beyond reasonable inspection, unwashed and returned with available labels. This condition cannot remove a statutory right to inspect the item. Exchanges are not automatic: the usual process is a return followed by a new order unless customer service confirms another solution.
For customers in Canada and the United States, we accept requests to return unused, unwashed standard apparel within 14 days of delivery, unless the checkout clearly provides a more favourable rule. Customer-paid return postage applies to preference-based returns. Mandatory state, provincial and federal rights still apply.
Faulty, unsafe, damaged or incorrect items are handled separately from preference returns. Contact us within a reasonable time with the order number and, where useful, clear photos. A short reporting request never reduces a longer mandatory complaint period. Repair, replacement, price reduction or refund will be provided as required by law, and the seller covers necessary return cost for a valid defect claim. EEA customers have at least a two-year legal guarantee; Norwegian complaint periods may be longer for goods intended to last substantially longer.
STANDARD WITHDRAWAL FORM
A form you may copy or print
Use this only if you wish to withdraw from an eligible distance purchase. Using this exact form is optional; any clear statement sent within the deadline is sufficient.

What data is used and why
VEDØY is the controller for personal data used to run this experience, provide Vedøy Login and fulfil orders. Shopping, Mindshift and Who Said It do not require an account. The shared credits wallet, enforced Fair Casino limits and fixed shop reward require Vedøy Login. Supabase Auth provides the account and secure session service. A bag is kept in the current page session; checkout then takes place on Shopify.
- Data
- Vedøy Login email address, account identifier, authentication and secure-session data, shared Vedøy profile fields, accepted policy versions and acceptance time; credit balance and immutable transaction ledger, daily-practice claim, Fair Casino play count and credit charge, fixed-reward code and expiry; plus contact and delivery details, order and transaction records, customer-service messages, fraud and security signals, and device and server-log data. The selected daily reflection answer is not stored. Password credentials are handled by Supabase Auth and payment-card details by the payment provider; neither is stored by this website.
- Purposes
- Create and secure the requested account, recognise it across connected Vedøy services, enforce free-credit and game limits, prevent duplicate reward claims, provide an earned Shopify code, document acceptance of account terms, provide checkout and fulfilment, deliver support, meet accounting and consumer-law duties, prevent fraud and improve reliability. Marketing is sent only with a separate valid permission or another lawful basis.
- Legal bases
- Contract, legal obligation, legitimate interests in security and service operation, and consent where law requires it.
- Recipients
- Supabase as authentication and database provider; Shopify and payment providers; Tapstitch or the relevant producer; hosting and technical providers; carriers; professional advisers; and public authorities when legally required.
- International transfers
- Providers may process data outside your country. EEA transfers rely on an adequacy decision, approved contractual safeguards or another lawful mechanism where required.
- Retention
- Account, credit and game-limit records are kept while the account remains active and then deleted or anonymised when no longer needed, subject to security, fraud, dispute and legal-retention needs. The limited credit ledger and reward evidence may be retained long enough to reconcile balances and resolve claims. Policy-acceptance evidence may be kept as necessary to demonstrate the agreement. Order and accounting records are kept for statutory periods; support and security records only for their justified periods.
You may request access, correction, account deletion, restriction, portability or objection where applicable, and may withdraw consent at any time without affecting earlier lawful processing. Contact leander@vedoystudio.no. EEA/Norway users may complain to Datatilsynet or their local supervisory authority. Canadian users may also contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada or the relevant provincial authority.
07 · REGIONAL RIGHTS
EEA, Norway, Canada and United States
- Norway / EEA: pre-contract information, 14-day withdrawal, delivery and legal-guarantee rights apply under mandatory consumer law. GDPR rights apply to personal data.
- Canada: VEDØY follows PIPEDA’s accountability, identified-purpose, consent, minimisation, safeguarding, access and challenge principles where PIPEDA applies, together with applicable provincial consumer and privacy rules.
- United States: advertised shipping times are honoured or delay/refund choices are provided. Advertising must be truthful. If a state privacy law applies, residents may exercise the rights provided there. VEDØY does not sell personal information or use this site for cross-context behavioural advertising.
- California: if the CCPA applies to VEDØY, eligible residents can request knowledge/access, correction, deletion, opt-out of sale or sharing, limitation of sensitive-data use and non-discrimination. Requests can be sent to the contact above. Identity may need to be verified.
Local non-waivable law prevails. Governing law is Norwegian law, but this choice does not remove mandatory protections in the consumer’s home jurisdiction. Disputes should first be sent to VEDØY. Norwegian consumers can request mediation through the Norwegian Consumer Authority.
08 · ACCESSIBILITY, SAFETY & CONTENT
Designed for more people
We aim for WCAG 2.2 AA: keyboard-operable controls, visible focus, meaningful alternative text, sufficient contrast, responsive layouts and reduced-motion support. If a barrier prevents shopping or playing, email leander@vedoystudio.no and describe the page and the help needed. We will offer an accessible alternative where reasonably possible.
Product pages and physical labels should provide required fibre content, care, origin, manufacturer or responsible-business information and safety details. Stop using an item that appears unsafe and contact us. Product-safety incidents can be reported to the contact above.
Site text, branding and visual assets may not be copied for commercial use without permission unless a separate licence or law allows it. Philosophical names and public-domain ideas remain free for everyone. If you believe content infringes a right, send the exact URL and supporting details.
09 · CHANGES & CONTACT
When this page changes
Material changes are dated at the top and, when required, communicated directly. A new policy does not retroactively reduce rights attached to an already confirmed order. Questions can be sent to leander@vedoystudio.no.
This policy centre is designed around the current site and major rules in Norway/EEA, Canada and the United States. Laws vary by country, province and state, and legal pages cannot replace product labelling, tax, registration, consent configuration or professional review.
