Política de Envio - noções fundamentais
That said, a Shipping Policy is a legally binding document designed to stipulate the legal relationship between you and your customers. It serves as the legal framework for outlining your obligations to your customers, but also for clarifying different situations that may arise and what will happen in each of those cases.
A Shipping Policy is a good practice and helps both sides: yours and your customers'. Your customers can benefit from being informed about what they can expect from your service. You can benefit because people may be more likely to buy if you have a clear Shipping Policy, since there will be no doubts about delivery times or processes.
What to include in the Shipping Policy
In general terms, the Shipping Policy typically regulates the following issues: order processing times; shipping costs; different domestic and international shipping solutions; potential service interruptions; and much more.
