Buyer Protection Policies

1. Overview

This Buyer Protection Policy ensures that customers who purchase through Trincos receive secure payments, verified products, reliable shipping, fair dispute handling, and guaranteed support. By placing an order on Trincos, buyers agree to the protections and processes described in this Policy.

2. Product Authenticity & Quality

Trincos works only with verified distributors and suppliers who are required to list accurate product descriptions, specifications, images, and quality standards. Buyers are protected if a delivered product is defective, damaged, incomplete, counterfeit, or does not match the description shown on the website. Sellers must comply with global product safety regulations and are responsible for maintaining product authenticity and quality.

3. Order Processing & Fulfillment

Every order placed on Trincos is processed through authorized distributors and approved logistics partners. Sellers are required to follow proper packaging and handling procedures to prevent damage during transit. Estimated delivery timelines are provided based on the distributor’s location and logistics network, and buyers will be notified of delays or fulfillment issues when possible.

4. Shipping & Delivery Guarantee

Shipping times may vary depending on the buyer’s region, carrier availability, and customs clearance. Trincos ensures tracking information is provided whenever available. If an order is delayed beyond the maximum estimated delivery window, buyers may request assistance, order review, compensation (where applicable), or cancellation support. Lost, untraceable, or misrouted shipments are fully covered under our delivery protection.

5. Damaged, Incorrect, or Missing Items

If a product arrives damaged, incorrect, missing components, or not as described, buyers can file a claim within the allowed timeframe. Evidence such as photos or videos may be required to process the claim. Trincos will work with the distributor to provide a suitable resolution which may include a replacement, refund, or partial refund, depending on the nature of the issue.

6. Returns & Refunds

Eligible items may be returned according to our Return & Refund Policy. Refunds are processed once returned items are received and inspected or based on the agreed resolution between the buyer and distributor. Certain categories such as perishable goods, hygiene-sensitive products, customized orders, and digital goods may not qualify for return unless they arrive damaged or incorrect. Refund processing times depend on the payment provider and financial institution.

7. Secure Payments & Buyer Financial Protection

All payments made through Trincos are processed securely using encrypted technologies and globally recognized compliance standards. Trincos does not store sensitive card details, and unauthorized or fraudulent charges are fully protected. If any irregular or unauthorized payment activity is detected, buyers may request verification, investigation, and dispute assistance. Chargebacks follow the rules of the respective payment provider.

8. Fraud Prevention & Anti-Abuse Measures

Trincos uses automated and manual monitoring systems to detect suspicious orders, payment fraud, unusual buyer behavior, or distributor violations. In such cases, transactions may be temporarily suspended while verification is completed. Buyers may be asked to provide identity confirmation or supporting documents if a transaction is flagged for security reasons.

9. Seller Responsibilities & Compliance

Distributors on Trincos must comply with international marketplace standards, including productauthenticity, safe packaging, timely shipping, correct order fulfillment, transparent pricing, and responsible customer service. Trincos reserves the right to suspend or remove sellers who violate buyer protection rules or show repeated non-compliance.

10. Unfulfilled Orders & Stock Issues

If a distributor cannot fulfill an order due to stock shortages, logistical constraints, or internal issues, buyers will be notified promptly. In such cases, buyers may choose to receive a refund, select a replacement item, or accept an alternative solution as offered by the distributor.
