Sale of Age Restricted Goods Policy

Age Restricted Items - Certain items available on CookServeEnjoy.com are age-restricted.

Please Note: Recently issued statutory guidance on the Offensive Weapons Act 2019 has tightened restrictions. The guidance means that we have to treat all kitchen and cutlery knives, including table knives, as bladed articles and therefore must sell them according to the appropriate regulations. As of 6th April 2022 all knives, including cutlery knives, will therefore require age verification and will have to be dispatched via an Age Verified Delivery service.

By placing an order for one of these items, you are declaring that you are 18 years of age or over and agree to have your age verified through our third party age checker.

There are a number of measures in place to confirm that a customer is eligible to purchase an age restricted item. An age checker solution works in the background of the checkout to run age verifications against your details.

Our lawful basis under GDPR for processing your information for Age Verification is our legal obligation to ensure that persons purchasing age-restricted items are of the minimum legal age to do so. All data is handled sensitively and securely. Checks are carried out by third party software from which all personal information is removed after the check is carried out. More information can be found in our privacy policy.
