Elemental Cider Host Responsibility Policy

Elemental Cider takes the responsibilities that come with the Sale and Supply of Alcohol very seriously. We operate within the requirements of the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012 (the Act). We aim to minimise the harm from alcohol and promote a safe environment.

We’re a responsible retailer of online liquor and we take our legal obligations seriously. Please take a minute to read everything below.

REALLY IMPORTANT LEGAL BITS

It’s illegal for us to sell alcohol to anyone under the age of 18. It’s also illegal for you to buy alcohol if you’re under the age of 18, even if you’re buying as a gift for someone else.

It’s illegal for you to falsely declare your age if you are under the age of 18 in order to buy alcohol from us. In accordance with the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012 this is an offence liable on conviction to a fine of up to $2,000. It’s pretty simple – if you’re under 18 you’re not allowed to shop with us.

Only persons aged 18 years and older are able to sign and receive orders from us. This is in accordance with the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012. If you’re lucky enough to look under the age of 25 the courier will ask to see valid ID. If the receiver is under the age of 18 or does not have valid ID the parcel will be returned to the depot for further instruction.

By submitting an order with us and agreeing to the Terms & Conditions you’re confirming that you (the buyer) and the receiver is aged 18 years or older and legally allowed to buy alcohol in New Zealand.
