3. Eligibility & Accounts

By using the Services, you confirm you are at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction. You are responsible for the accuracy of information provided and for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials. You are responsible for all activity under your account.

4. Digital Products; Important Conditions

  • Activation: After successful redemption, the license becomes associated with your Microsoft account and is thereafter supported by Microsoft.
  • Compatibility: You are responsible for checking system requirements and edition compatibility before purchase.

5. Orders & Acceptance

Your order is an offer to buy. We may accept or decline at our discretion. Acceptance occurs when we deliver the digital key. We may cancel or refuse any order (e.g., suspected fraud, pricing/availability errors). If we cancel after payment, we’ll refund any amounts paid that we are legally required to refund.

6. Prices, Taxes & Billing

Prices may change at any time. The price payable is as shown at checkout at the time of purchase. Unless stated otherwise, prices exclude taxes and fees that may apply. You agree to provide current, complete and accurate billing details and authorise us or our payment processors to charge your selected payment method for the total due.

7. Cancellations, Refunds & Warranty (Digital Keys)

  • Cancellations: Possible only before the key is delivered (shown on-screen or emailed). After delivery, orders cannot be cancelled.
  • Refunds: Not available once a key is delivered or redeemed, due to the nature of digital content and single-use codes (see Refund Policy).
  • 30-Day Warranty: If a key fails to activate within 30 days of purchase, we will verify and provide a replacement key at no additional cost. Contact support@realkeys.co.uk with your order number and activation error screenshot.
  • Post-Activation Support: After successful redemption, warranty and technical support are provided by Microsoft under their terms.
  • Abuse/Fraud: We may refuse replacement where there is evidence of prior activation, misuse, sharing, or breach of these Terms.

8. Consumer Rights & Digital Content

By purchasing a digital key, you request immediate supply of digital content and acknowledge that the statutory 14-day cooling-off right does not apply once delivery has begun or the key has been accessed/redeemed, in line with UK/EU digital content rules.

9. Delivery & Availability

Electronic delivery is usually immediate but may be delayed by security checks, payment processing, or system outages. We are not liable for delays caused by third-party providers or events outside our control. If a purchased product becomes unavailable, we may cancel and (where applicable) refund according to law.

10. License & Acceptable Use

On purchase, you receive a license key subject to the relevant software publisher’s end user license agreement (EULA). You agree not to resell, share, publish, or circumvent technological measures, and not to use the Services for unlawful, infringing, fraudulent, or abusive purposes.
