Terms of service

Last updated: October 2, 2026

Welcome to Crinklet. These Terms of Service ("Terms") apply to your use of crinklet.com (the "Site") and to any purchase you make from Crinklet ("Crinklet", "we", "us" or "our"). By using the Site or placing an order, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, Shipping Policy and Refund Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least the age of majority where you live, or have permission from a parent or guardian, to place an order. You agree to give accurate and complete information at checkout.

2. Our products

Crinklet pieces are handmade squishy toys with a crunchy coating, made in small batches. Because each one is made by hand:

  • colour, shape, size and finish will vary slightly from piece to piece and from the photos on the Site;
  • small surface marks, bubbles or uneven edges are part of the handmade character and are not defects;
  • the crunchy coating is designed to crack and shed as you play, and the piece will soften over time. This is normal wear, not a defect.

Screen settings can also change how colours look. We try to show each item as accurately as we can.

3. Safety

  • Not food. Crinklet pieces may look like food but must never be eaten, chewed or put in the mouth.
  • Choking hazard. Contains small parts and pieces of coating can break off. Not suitable for children under 3 years. Children of any age should be supervised during play.
  • Keep away from pets, heat, open flames and direct sunlight. Do not wash in water unless the product page says it is safe to do so.
  • Stop using any piece that is torn or leaking and throw it away.

You are responsible for using the products as intended and following these warnings.

4. Prices and payment

Prices are shown in Canadian dollars (CAD) for Canadian customers and in U.S. dollars (USD) for customers in the United States, unless stated otherwise. Taxes and shipping are calculated at checkout. We may change prices at any time, but the price charged is the one shown when you placed your order.

We accept the payment methods shown at checkout. By submitting payment details, you confirm you are authorised to use that payment method.

5. Orders

Your order is an offer to buy. We accept it when we ship it. We may refuse or cancel any order, or limit quantities, for example if an item is out of stock, if there is a pricing or description error, or if we suspect fraud. If we cancel an order you have already paid for, we will refund you in full.

We work hard to keep stock, prices and product details accurate, but mistakes happen. We reserve the right to correct errors at any time, including after an order has been placed.

6. Shipping, returns and refunds

Shipping is covered by our Shipping Policy. Returns, refunds and cancellations are covered by our Refund Policy. Risk of loss passes to you when the carrier confirms delivery to the address you gave us.
