Terms & Privacy
The Rare Now — Terms & Privacy
Last updated: August 2026
Welcome to The Rare Now.
We believe in making things with care and in treating the people who buy them with the same care. So we’ve tried to keep these terms as simple and human as possible.
By visiting our website or buying something from us, you agree to the terms below. They explain how our store works, what you can expect from us, what we expect from you, and how we look after your personal information.
Our online store is operated by Beyond Mind B.V. and powered by Shopify, which provides the e-commerce platform that allows us to share and sell our products.
1. USING OUR STORE
You may browse and use The Rare Now website as long as you do so lawfully and responsibly.
To make a purchase, you must be legally able to enter into a purchase agreement in your country, or have permission from a parent or legal guardian where required.
Please don’t use our website, products, content, or services for anything illegal, harmful, fraudulent, or unauthorized.
And naturally: no viruses, malicious code, attempts to interfere with the website, or anything else that could harm us or other visitors.
2. OUR PRODUCTS
We create products that we hope bring a little more meaning, beauty, and presence into everyday life.
Some products may be produced in limited quantities and may only be available online.
We do our best to show every product as accurately as possible. Still, colors and details can look slightly different depending on your screen, device, or the nature of the materials used.
Product descriptions, availability, and prices may change from time to time.
We may also choose to limit or discontinue a product. That is part of keeping The Rare Now alive, evolving, and occasionally rare.
3. ORDERS & PAYMENT
When placing an order, please provide accurate and up-to-date information so we can get your order to the right place.
We reserve the right to refuse or cancel an order in exceptional circumstances, for example, suspected fraud, incorrect pricing, technical errors, or stock issues.
Payments are processed securely through our payment partners. We do not directly store your complete credit card details.
4. PRICES & CHANGES
Our prices may change from time to time.
We may also update, change, pause, or discontinue parts of our website or services when necessary.
Naturally, changes made after you have completed a purchase will not alter the agreed price of that order.
5. ACCURACY OF INFORMATION
We do our best to keep everything on The Rare Now accurate, useful, and up to date.
Occasionally, however, something may be incomplete, outdated, or simply wrong. If we discover an error - for example in a price, description, availability, or promotion - we reserve the right to correct it.
If an error materially affects an order you have already placed, we will contact you where appropriate.
6. OUR CONTENT
The words, images, designs, graphics, ideas, logos, and other original content on The Rare Now belong to us or are used with permission.
Please enjoy them, share our world, and tell others about us, but don’t reproduce, commercially exploit, copy, or resell our content or designs without our written permission.
7. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES & LINKS
To make The Rare Now work, we use trusted third-party services for things such as payments, shipping, analytics, and running our online store.
These may include services such as Shopify, Stripe, Mollie, PayPal, and DHL, depending on how you interact with us.
Sometimes our website may also link to other websites. We don’t control those websites and aren’t responsible for their content, privacy practices, or services.
8. YOUR COMMENTS & CONTRIBUTIONS
We love hearing from people.
If you send us feedback, ideas, comments, reviews, photographs, or other contributions, please make sure you have the right to share them and that they don’t violate anyone else’s rights.
Where you explicitly submit content for publication or promotion, you give us permission to use that content in connection with The Rare Now.
9. A NOTE ON WELLBEING CONTENT
From time to time, The Rare Now may share ideas about living, creativity, presence, wellbeing, or simply making more of the moment.
These are intended as inspiration and general information only.
Nothing on our website should be considered medical, psychological, legal, or other professional advice. If you need professional support or advice, please speak with an appropriately qualified professional.
10. OUR RESPONSIBILITY
We want your experience with The Rare Now to be a good one.
At the same time, websites and digital services are not always perfect. We cannot promise that the website will always be uninterrupted, completely secure, or error-free.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits rights or protections that you have under applicable consumer law.

14. MARKETING & CONSENT
If you sign up to hear from The Rare Now, we may occasionally send you news, stories, product releases, invitations, or other things we think are worth sharing.
We don’t want to fill your inbox just because we can.
You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time.
Where consent is required to use your information, you can also withdraw that consent at any time.
15. WHO WE SHARE INFORMATION WITH
We only share personal information with third parties when it is necessary to operate The Rare Now or when we are legally required to do so.

Shopify processes certain personal information to provide its services to us and to you.
Payments made through Shopify and our payment providers use industry-standard security measures, including applicable PCI-DSS requirements.
17. COOKIES
Like most websites, The Rare Now uses cookies and similar technologies.
Some are necessary to make the website and checkout work. Others help us understand how people use the site and improve the experience.
Where required by law, we will ask for your permission before using non-essential cookies.
You can manage your cookie choices through our cookie settings where available.
18. KEEPING YOUR INFORMATION SAFE
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information.
No online system can ever be completely risk-free, but we take privacy and security seriously and work with established technology and payment providers to help keep your information protected.
19. HOW LONG WE KEEP INFORMATION
We keep personal information only for as long as we reasonably need it - for example, to fulfil your order, provide customer service, meet accounting or legal obligations, or resolve a dispute.
After that, information is deleted or anonymized where appropriate.
20. YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS
Depending on where you live, you may have rights over your personal information.
For customers in the European Union and European Economic Area, these can include the right to:

withdraw consent where our use is based on your consent.
If you want to exercise any of these rights, just contact us.
21. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS & PRIVACY POLICY
The Rare Now will evolve, and occasionally these terms will too.
When we make meaningful changes, we’ll update this page and change the “Last updated” date at the top.
The latest version published here will always be the version that applies.
22. IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG
If part of these terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the rest will continue to apply.
Nothing in these terms is intended to take away any mandatory rights you have under applicable consumer or privacy law.
