This document and any other documents referred to in this document tell you the legal terms on which we sell any of the products on our website to you. Please read these terms and conditions carefully before ordering any products. You should understand that by ordering any of our products, you agree to be bound by these terms. If you refuse to accept these terms, you will not be able to order any products from our site.
These terms, and any order or contract between us, are only in the English language.
These terms are applicable to both consumers and those purchasing products in their capacity as a business. Certain terms apply to consumers only and others to businesses only. It will be made clear in the terms where this is the case. For clarity, you will be purchasing as a consumer where the products being purchased are those that wouldn’t normally be associated with, or used by, your trade or profession. For example, if you are an accountant and you are buying spare parts for a Clevatech product, you will be buying as a consumer. You will be purchasing as a business where you are buying the products to use for your business.
As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to products that are faulty or not as described. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office. Nothing in these terms will affect these legal rights.
1.1 The price of any products will be as quoted on our website at the time you submit your order. These prices include VAT but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due at the then current rates. Our delivery charges are advised to you during the check-out process, before you confirm your order.
1.2 We take all reasonable care to ensure that the prices of the products are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system. However, please see clause 1.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the products you ordered.
2.1 All products shown on our website are subject to availability. The images of the products on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that your computer’s display of the colours accurately reflect the colour of the products. The products may vary slightly from those images.
2.2 The packaging of the products may vary from that shown on images on our site.
3.1 Our order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please take the time to read and check your order at each page of the order process. You may pay using one of the methods indicated.
3.4 Whether purchasing as a consumer or a business, you may only purchase products from our website if you are at least 18 years old and resident in the United Kingdom.
4.2 If no one is available at your address to take delivery, we will leave you a note that the products have been returned to our premises, in which case, please contact us to rearrange delivery. If you do not contact us to rearrange delivery within 1 week of the initial delivery then we will attempt to contact you for further instructions on what you want to do. After this time we may charge you our costs incurred in storing the products for you together with extra costs incurred in any subsequent delivery. If we are unable to contact you then we will cancel the contract and we may seek recovery of our costs incurred as a result of the cancellation.
4.3 Delivery of an order shall be completed when we deliver the products to the address you gave us and the products will be your responsibility from that time.
4.4 You own the products once we have received payment in full, including all applicable delivery charges.
This clause 4.4 only applies if you are a consumer.
4.5 If we miss the 90 day delivery deadline for any products then you may cancel your order straight away if any of the following apply:
4.5.1 we have refused to deliver the products;
4.5.2 delivery within the delivery deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or
4.5.3 you told us before we accepted your order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential.
4.6 If you do not wish to cancel your order straight away, or do not have the right to do so under clause 4.5, you can give us a new deadline for delivery, which must be reasonable, and you can cancel your order if we do not meet the new deadline.
4.7 If you do choose to cancel your order for late delivery under clause 4.5 or clause 4.6, you can do so for just some of the products or all of them, unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. If the products have been delivered to you, you will have to return them to us or allow us to collect them, and we will pay the costs of this. After you cancel your order we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled products and their delivery.
5.1 Unfortunately, we do not deliver to addresses outside the UK.
5.2 You may place an order for products from outside the UK, but this order must be for delivery to an address in the UK. Please note, in these circumstances the provisions of clause 15.2 will still apply and this contract will be governed by English law.
6.2 No payment shall be deemed to have been received until we have received cleared funds.
7.1 We promise that the products:
7.1.1 comply with their description on our acknowledgement of order form; and
7.1.2 are free from material defect for a period of 6 months from the date of delivery provided that you comply with clause 7.3.
7.2 If you are not a consumer, we give no other warranty (and exclude any warranty, term or condition that would otherwise be implied) as to the quality of the products or their fitness for any purpose.
7.3 If you believe that we have delivered products which are defective in materials or workmanship, you must return the products to us to investigate a claim under this clause 7.
7.4 If the products are found to be defective in material or workmanship (following our investigations), and you have complied with those conditions (in clause 7.3) in full, we will (at our option) replace the goods or refund the price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will not replace, refund or be liable for any products which:
7.4.1 have been tampered with or in any way altered, adapted, repaired and/or modified other than by us;
7.4.2 have been subject to misuse, negligence or acts other than by us;
7.4.3 have been incorporated into, use with and/or integrated with products not supplied by us; and/or
7.4.4 have been wilfully damaged, stored, handled, maintained or used in a manner contrary to our instructions or not originally intended.
8.1 Except as expressly stated in these terms, we do not give any representation, warranties or undertakings in relation to the products. Any representation, condition or warranty which might be implied or incorporated into these terms by statute, common law or otherwise is excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law. In particular, we will not be responsible for ensuring that the products are suitable for your purposes.
8.2 Subject to clause 8.1, we will under no circumstances whatever be liable to you, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, arising under or in connection with the order for:
8.2.1 any loss of profits, sales, business, or revenue;
8.2.2 loss or corruption of data, information, or software;
8.2.3 loss of business opportunity;
8.2.4 loss of anticipated savings;
8.2.5 loss of goodwill; or
8.2.6 any indirect, or consequential loss.
8.3 Subject only to clauses 8.5 and 15.8, our total liability to you (from one single cause) for damage to property caused by our negligence or otherwise shall be limited to £500
8.4 Subject only to clauses 8.3, 8.5 and 15.8, for all other liabilities not referred to elsewhere in these terms our liability is limited in damages to the price of the goods.
8.5 Nothing in these terms restricts or limits our liability for:
8.5.1 death or personal injury resulting from our negligence;
8.5.2 fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
8.5.3 breach of the terms implied by section 12 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 (title and quiet possession); or
8.5.4 defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
8.6 You and we agree that neither of us shall have any claim for innocent or negligent misrepresentation or negligent misstatement based on any statement on our website or as part of the order.
8.7 The exclusions and limitations of liability set out in this clause 8 shall be considered severally. The invalidity or unenforceability of any one of these sub-clauses shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other part of this clause 8.
8.8 The whole of this clause 8 shall survive the termination of the relevant contract and/or these terms howsoever caused.
9.1 If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breach of these terms or our negligence, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if it is an obvious consequence of our breach or if it was contemplated by you and us at the time the order was placed.
9.2 We only supply the products for domestic and private use. You agree not to use the product for any commercial, business or resale purposes, and we have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
9.3 We do not in any way exclude or limit our liability for:
9.3.1 death or personal injury caused by our negligence;
9.3.2 fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
9.3.4 any breach of the terms implied by section 13 to 15 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 (that the goods will match their description, be of satisfactory quality, be fit for the purpose for which they have been manufactured and match any samples provided to you); and
9.3.5 defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
10.1 If you are not a consumer, we will accept the return of goods from you only:
10.1.1 by prior arrangement (confirmed in writing and quoting your invoice number).
10.1.2 on payment of an agreed handling charge (unless the goods were defective when delivered, or unless we agree otherwise); and
10.1.3 where the goods are as fit for sale on their return as they were on delivery.
10.2 Subject to clause 8.1, where goods are returned to us they will be subject to a restocking charge of £150 per product.
11.1 If you are a consumer you will have a legal right to cancel your order with us during the period set out below in clause 11.3. This means that during the relevant period if you change your mind or for any other reason you decide you do not want to keep a product, you can notify us of your decision to cancel your order and receive a full refund.
11.2 However, this cancellation right does not apply in the case of any products which are customised in any way or that become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery.
11.3 Your deadline for cancelling your order is the end of 3 days after the day on which you receive the product(s).
11.5 If you cancel your order we will:
11.5.1 refund you the price you paid for the products. However, please note we are permitted by law to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop.
11.5.2 refund any delivery costs you have paid, although, as permitted by law, the maximum refund will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer (provided that this is a common and generally acceptable method).
11.5.3 make any refunds due to you as soon as possible and in any event within the deadlines indicated below:
(a) if you have received the product and we have not offered to collect it from you: 14 days after the day on which we receive the product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the product back to us. For information about how to return a product to us, see clause 11.8;
(b) if you have not received the product or you have received it and we have offered to collect it from you: 14 days after you inform us of your decision to cancel the order.
11.6 If you have returned products to us under this clause 11 because they are faulty or mis-described, we will refund the price of a defective product in full, any applicable delivery charges, and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the item to us.
11.7 We will refund you on the credit card or debit card used by you to pay.
11.8 If the products have been delivered to you before you decide to cancel your order:
11.8.1 then you must return it to us without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days after the day on which you let us know that you wish to cancel the order.
11.8.2 unless the product is faulty or not as described (in this case, see clause 11.6), you will be responsible for the cost of returning the products to us. If the product is one which cannot be returned by post, we estimate that if you use the carrier which delivered the product to you, these costs should not exceed the sums we charged you for delivery.
12.1 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.
12.2 We amend these terms from time to time. Every time you wish to order products, please check these terms to ensure you understand the terms which will apply at that time.
12.3 If we must revise these terms as they apply to your order, we will contact you to give you reasonable advance notice of the changes and let you know how to cancel the order if you are not happy with the changes. You may cancel either in respect of all the affected products or just the products you have yet to receive. If you opt to cancel, you will have to return (at our cost) any relevant products you have already received and we will arrange a full refund of the price you have paid, including any delivery charges.
13.1 We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of, any of our obligations in respect of an order that is caused by an Event Outside Our Control. An Event Outside Our Control is defined below in clause 13.2.
13.2 An Event Outside Our Control means any act or event beyond our reasonable control, including, by means of a non-exhaustive set of examples, strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action by third parties, civil commotion, riot, invasion, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist attack, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war, fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, subsidence, epidemic or other natural disaster, or failure of public or private telecommunications networks or impossibility of the use of railways, shipping, aircraft, motor transport or other means of public or private transport.
13.3 If an Event Outside Our Control takes place that affects our ability to supply anything you have ordered from us:
13.3.1 we will contact you as soon as reasonably possible to notify you; and
13.3.2 our obligations to supply the products you have ordered will be suspended and we will remain suspended until the Event Outside Our Control has ended. After the Event Outside Our Control has ended we will contact you to arrange a new delivery date with you after the Event Outside Our Control is over.
13.4 You may cancel an order affected by an Event Outside Our Control which has continued for more than 30 days. To cancel please contact us. If you opt to cancel, you will have to return (at our cost) any relevant products you have already received and we will refund the price you have paid, including any delivery charges.

14.6 All personal data we hold about you will be held in accordance with our Data Retention Policy, a copy of which can be provided to you upon request.
15.1 If you are a consumer, please note that these terms are governed by English law. This means an order for the purchase of products through our site and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it will be governed by English law. You and we both agree to that the courts of England and Wales will have non-exclusive jurisdiction. However, if you are a resident of Northern Ireland you may also bring proceedings in Northern Ireland, and if you are a resident of Scotland, you may also bring proceedings in Scotland.

15.6.1 it will not affect the enforceability of any other of these terms; and
15.6.2 if it would be enforceable if amended, it will be treated as so amended.
15.7 No order will create any right enforceable (by virtue of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999) by any person not identified as the buyer or seller.
15.8 Nothing in these terms affects or limits our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation.
15.9 We may assign the benefit of the order to any other person without your consent. You may not assign the benefit of the order.
