About 1st-home-drug-tests.com
1st-home-drug-tests.com is a website set up by Drug-Aware Ltd to specifically assist parents and partners who are interested in home testing for drugs and alcohol. Drug-Aware has been providing drug and alcohol test kits, training, laboratory services and consultancy to the National Health Service (NHS), private healthcare organisations and companies across the UK for nearly seven years. However, we felt that with our www.drug-aware.com website being geared towards professional use, we should have a separate site which could take into account the sensitive requirements of people interested in home testing.
Consequently, you should feel free to make full use of the Drug-Aware website for information, but know that the most appropriate information on home testing will be found on this site - along with the ability to purchase test kits online. We hope you enjoy the site and find all the answers you are looking for.

To cover us legally, we must point out that when you are sent a confirmation of order

that an error has been
made in pricing on the web site or within the shopping cart
software. It is also important in the unlikely event of our no longer

control. But don't worry, if there is ever any change in price
or availability of a particular item, we would always contact you to
ensure that the change is acceptable.

Privacy
Statement
With the sensitive nature
of testing for drugs and alcohol we fully appreciate the need for
keeping our relationship private. As such, we are totally committed to protecting your privacy.
All information collected about you (necessary in order to supply
your goods) will be handled in
accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998. We
will NEVER pass your details on to anyone else.
The information we will hold within our electronic records includes
your name, address, telephone number (if provided), email address,
and order details. WorldPay hold your card / transaction
information and we are never provided this.
We endeavour to ensure that the information we hold about you is accurate
and current. Consequently, you may email us to ask what data
we hold on you at any time (you will be asked a security question in
order to release the information). This data may then be
updated or deleted as appropriate.
In terms of the privacy of your order, we ensure that all orders are shipped in plain packaging with no hint of package contents. We mark all packages as "Private and Confidential" (unless you specify otherwise in the "comments / instructions" box at checkout). A plain return address with no company name will also appear on a small label on the reverse of the package to comply with Royal Mail requirements.
Refunds,
Returns and Cancellation Policy
In the event that you receive a
package that is incorrect, damaged or that you no longer need, we

please contact us by email or telephone for full instructions and a
product return code. You have 7 days from the date you
received the goods in which to return them to us for a refund.
Refunds are issued from WorldPay within 30 days of cancellation.
Unfortunately, due to the nature of the products we supply, returned
items must arrive in the same condition as when we sent them - i.e. unused, in original
packaging and complete with all of the documentation / literature we
provided with them. Please note: used or opened testing kits or any used goods can not be
returned. It is illegal to send any goods
contaminated with human urine through the mail.
Please ensure when contacting us that you clearly state the reason
why you would like a return
or a replacement. We will issue your product return code
promptly and ask that you send the package back to us within 7 days of receiving
your order.

Security - WorldPay
For millions of people
around the world - including our customers - WorldPay is the way to
pay - they are trusted and secure. An important part of The
Royal Bank of Scotland Group, the 5th biggest banking group in the
world, WorldPay payment solutions are trusted by thousands of
businesses, big and small.
Our customers are able to make payments over the internet, by phone,
fax and mail. Via WorldPay, we accept Visa, MasterCard,
Diners, American Express, JCB and all the major credit cards.
Not forgetting debit cards and local payment schemes like Maestro,
Laser, Electron and more.
Security
Security is probably one of the most significant concerns for both
the shopper and the retailer during an online transaction. In
reality, an online transaction is probably more secure than a card
transaction in a shop or conducted over the telephone or by fax, as
the information transmitted online is strongly encrypted using
complicated logarithm combinations.
The WorldPay payment system uses a combination of both established
and innovative techniques to ensure the security and integrity of
all sensitive data. Furthermore, their public web servers are
certified by Thawte, a public Certificate Authority, ensuring that
both the shopper and retailer can have confidence that nobody can
impersonate WorldPay to obtain confidential information.
Transaction Encryption
The transfer of the purchase details from the our site and shopping
cart to WorldPay is encapsulated using an encrypted and
digitally-signed protocol. This uses a combination of standard
methods such as PGP, RSA and MD5 to ensure that the information
passed is secure and tamper-proof via SSL.
Security
for the Shopper
Any communication between the shopper and WorldPay is also encrypted
to the maximum strength supported by the shopper's browser using 128
Bit SSL. Shoppers are also protected from fraudulent use of
their card in a "card not present" environment, by their card
issuers. The card issuers provide the right for shopper to
dispute a transaction if the goods/services did not arrive or if the
card was used fraudulently.
Data Storage
Data storage on WorldPay systems, and the communication between
WorldPay and the worldwide banking networks, is regularly audited by
the banking authorities to ensure a secure transaction environment.
They also ensure that they stay up-to-date with the latest versions
of any third-party code they use, and continually review their own
proprietary code.
