No statement on this site has been evaluated by Health Canada, and no product sold here is an approved medicine.

Orders and acceptance

Your order is an offer to purchase. We may accept or decline any order at our discretion, including where we have reason to believe an order is intended for resale, for human administration contrary to our disclaimers, or otherwise contrary to law. Prices are in Canadian dollars and may change without notice.

03Privacy policy

Privacy policy

Scope

This Privacy Policy explains how Zenovate collects, uses and protects personal information through peptide-direct.ca, consistent with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy laws.

Information we collect

We collect information you provide directly (name, contact details, shipping address, order history, age confirmation and acknowledgments) and information collected automatically (device, browser, IP address, and usage data via cookies and similar technologies).

How we use information

We use personal information to process and ship orders, verify eligibility, provide customer support, maintain documentation records, comply with legal obligations, prevent fraud, and (where you have consented) send updates. We do not sell personal information.

Payment data

Payments are processed by third-party payment providers. We do not store full payment card numbers on our servers. Payment processors handle card data under their own security standards.

Cookies and analytics

We use cookies and analytics tools to operate the site, remember preferences, and understand usage. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling some cookies may affect site functionality.

We share personal information only with service providers who help us operate (shipping carriers, payment processors, IT providers) under confidentiality obligations, or where required by law. We may disclose information to comply with legal process or to protect our rights and the safety of others.

Retention and security

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described or as required by law, and we apply reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

Your rights

Subject to applicable law, you may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and may withdraw consent to non-essential processing. To make a request, contact us through the Contact page.

04Refund policy

Refund policy

Nature of the products

Because our products are sensitive compounds with documented handling and cold-chain requirements, they cannot be resold once they have left our custody. For health, safety and integrity reasons, opened or temperature-exposed items are not eligible for return.

Damaged or incorrect orders

If your order arrives damaged, with compromised packaging, or is not what you ordered, contact us within 48 hours of delivery with your order number and clear photographs. Verified cases will be resolved by replacement or refund at our discretion.

Order errors and cancellations

Orders may be cancelled for a full refund only before they enter processing or dispatch. Once an order has shipped, it cannot be cancelled. If you entered an incorrect address, contact us immediately; we cannot guarantee changes after dispatch.

Non-delivery

If tracking shows an order was not delivered, contact us so we can open an investigation with the carrier. Resolution may require completion of the carrier's claims process.

How refunds are issued

Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method within a reasonable period after approval. Shipping charges are non-refundable except where an order was damaged, incorrect, or not delivered due to our error.

How to start a claim

To start a claim, use the Contact page with your order number and supporting details. We review every claim individually and aim to respond within [X] business days.

05Shipping policy

Shipping policy

Where we ship

We ship to addresses within Canada only. Orders never cross an international border and are not subject to customs clearance or import delays. We do not ship outside Canada at this time.

Processing time

Orders are processed and dispatched within [X] business days of payment confirmation, excluding weekends and statutory holidays. Orders placed after the daily cutoff are processed the next business day.

Temperature-controlled shipping

Compounds with cold-chain requirements ship in temperature-controlled packaging appropriate to the product and season. Once an order is delivered, responsibility for correct storage passes to you; please refrigerate or store as indicated as soon as it arrives.

Tracking

Every order ships with tracking. A tracking number is emailed at dispatch. Please ensure your shipping address and contact details are accurate, as we are not responsible for delays caused by incorrect information.

Delivery issues

We are not responsible for delays caused by the carrier, weather, or events beyond our control. If a shipment is delayed or shows as undelivered, contact us and we will work with the carrier to resolve it.

Shipping charges

Shipping charges, if any, are shown at checkout before payment. Promotional free-shipping thresholds, where offered, are applied automatically when the order qualifies.
