TERMS AND CONDITIONS – SALE OF GOODS AND SERVICES
 

BACKGROUND

These Terms and Conditions explain the basis under which the Seller will provide the Goods and Services for the price described at clause 4.

The Buyer should read these Terms and Conditions very carefully to make sure that they understand what is agreed.

1 DEFINITIONS

In these Terms and Conditions, the following words and phrases have the following meanings: 

2.       GOODS AND SERVICES

2.1     The Seller is under a legal duty to supply the Services using reasonable care and skill.

2.2     The Services will be performed so far as reasonably practicable, at such time or times as the Seller shall decide. Any times, dates or periods given by the Seller for provision of the Services are estimates only. The Seller will make reasonable efforts to comply with any such time estimates, and will perform the Services within a reasonable time. However, time is not of the essence in respect of the Seller’s performance of the Services.

2.3     The Seller is under a legal duty to supply Goods which are:

          2.3.1     of satisfactory quality;

          2.3.2     fit for purpose; and

          2.3.3     as described by the Seller.

2.4     The Seller may modify or update, or require the Buyer or a third party to modify or update any Digital Content component of the Goods, provided that the Digital Content shall always match the description provided before purchase by the Buyer.

3.       ORDERING

3.1     By ordering the Goods and Services from the Seller, the Buyer makes an offer to buy the Goods and Services for the price given by the Seller. There is no binding contract between the Parties at the time when the order is made.

3.2     The Seller will contact the Buyer by email to tell the Buyer when the Goods have been dispatched. This Confirmation of Acceptance is the Seller’s acceptance of the Buyer’s order. When the Confirmation of Acceptance is received there will be a binding contract between the Parties in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. The binding contract will only be for the Goods and Services that are included in the Confirmation of Acceptance. It may not cover all the Goods the Buyer ordered, for example if stock is unavailable.

4.       PRICE AND PAYMENT

4.1     The Buyer must make payments in accordance with any schedule agreed with the Seller. VAT will be charged at the rate prevailing at the time that payment is due.

4.2     Where an estimate of the total price has been provided for any Services by the Seller, the final price may be higher or lower than the estimate. Circumstances where the price may be different from an estimate include, but are not limited to:

          4.2.1     the Services taking longer to complete than could have reasonably been anticipated;

          4.2.2     the Buyer making any changes to the Services after the price is agreed; or

          4.2.3     changes to the prices charged by any of the Seller’s suppliers.

4.3     Occasionally, the Seller’s fixed prices may change between the date of the order and the date of the Seller’s Confirmation of Acceptance. Reasons for a price change include, but are not limited to, a change in the amount that the Seller is charged by their supplier(s) or a change in the VAT rate. What happens when the price changes depends on whether the new price is lower or higher than the price originally given:

          4.3.1     if the new price is lower than that originally given, the Seller will charge the lower price and dispatch the Goods;

          4.3.2     if the new price is higher than that originally given, the Seller will either cancel the order or contact the Buyer to confirm whether they would prefer to cancel or pay the higher price for the Goods.

4.4     Without prejudice to any other legal right or remedy:

          4.4.1     if any agreed payment is not received by the Seller by the due date, the Seller can charge interest on the outstanding sum or sums. Interest will be charged at 12% per annum above the Bank of England base rate, accruing daily from the due date until payment is made;

          4.4.2     if the amounts not paid to the Seller when due total 10% or more of the total value of the Goods, the Seller is entitled to suspend performance until such time as the outstanding payments are made; and

          4.4.3     the Buyer will not refuse to pay any amount which is owed to the Seller where there is only a minor or inconsequential defect in the Goods.

5.       BUYER’S RESPONSIBILITIES

5.1     The Buyer shall co-operate fully with the Seller in the performance of the Services. Co-operation shall include, but is not limited to:

          5.1.1     responding promptly and properly to any correspondence, request, query or communication from or on behalf of the Seller;

          5.1.2     promptly providing any information, documentation, instruction, support or other assistance as the Seller reasonably requires;

          5.1.3     promptly making any space, resources or facilities available as may reasonably be required by the Seller; and

          5.1.4     paying any and all sums due on time.

5.2     If the Buyer does not comply fully and properly with their responsibilities under this clause, the Seller may, without prejudice to their legal rights:

          5.2.1     charge the Buyer for any costs or expenses thereby reasonably incurred; or

          5.2.2     suspend the provision of the Services until such time as the Buyer complies, so far as reasonably practicable, with their responsibilities under these Terms and Conditions.

8.3     The Buyer will be deemed to have accepted the Goods once they have either communicated acceptance of the Goods to the Seller, or had a reasonable opportunity to inspect the Goods, whether they have in fact inspected them or not. If the Goods form a Commercial Unit, the deemed acceptance by the Buyer of any part of that Commercial Unit shall be deemed acceptance by the Buyer of the whole of the Commercial Unit.

8.4     The Buyer cannot rely on a problem with the Goods as a reason for returning them if, before agreeing to purchase them, the Buyer was expressly informed of the problem, inspected a sample of the Goods or used a trial version of any Digital Content from which the problem was obvious.
