General Terms and Conditions of Sale
1. GENERAL
The following General Terms and Conditions of Sale ("Terms and Conditions") apply to and form an integral part of all agreements entered into between Innomate Pty Ltd ("Innomate") and the purchaser ("Buyer") for any sale of goods and services ("Products") by Innomate to the Buyer, unless explicitly agreed otherwise in writing.
These Terms and Conditions apply in addition to, and in parallel with, Innomate's "Service Terms of Use," which apply to any natural or legal person purchasing, accessing, or otherwise using certain services offered by Innomate relating to the processing of various data recorded by and/or transmitted via the Products.
2. FEE
All prices are quoted as net prices and do not include Goods and Services Tax (GST) or any other potential taxes or customs duties, which are to be paid additionally by the Buyer in the amount specified by applicable law.
3. INVOICING & PAYMENT
Payment shall be made in full within fourteen (14) days from the date of the invoice. Payment is considered made on the day the payable sum is received by Innomate. All payments shall be made to the agreed-upon Innomate bank account. Innomate reserves the right to require advance payment.
All late payments accrue interest at the rate of nine and a half per cent (9.5%) per annum or any higher statutory rate applicable, from the due date until payment has been made in full. This shall not preclude any other rights and remedies Innomate may have under applicable law concerning such late payments.
In case of previous payment default or reasonable doubt regarding the solvency or credit standing of the Buyer, Innomate reserves the right to demand security or prepayment for any outstanding delivery or to declare immediate maturity of all outstanding claims.
4. ORDERS
Orders are placed by a purchase order, stating (i) the type and amount of units in the order, (ii) shipment address, (iii) the ABN number of the Buyer, if applicable, (iv) contact person with Innomate, and (v) contact person with the Buyer. The Purchase Order shall be sent by email to accounts@innomate.com.au, clearly marking the contact person with Innomate. All orders shall be confirmed by an order confirmation from Innomate. An agreement for the sale and purchase of Products is concluded and binding when there is an unconditional acceptance of either 1) the Buyer's purchase order by Innomate or 2) Innomate's quotation/offer by the Buyer.
5. FORCE MAJEURE
Innomate shall not be liable for delayed or defective Products, or any other failure to meet its obligations under these Terms and Conditions and/or the agreement entered into with the Buyer, provided that the event in question is due to an unforeseen circumstance or cause beyond its control. This includes any strike, lock-out, labour dispute, act of God, inability to obtain labour, utilities or services, application of applicable laws, enemy or hostile actions, sabotage, war, blockades, insurrections, riots, epidemics, washouts, nuclear and radiation activity or fallout, civil disturbances, explosions, fire or other casualty, or any other cause, whether similar to or dissimilar from the foregoing, provided that it is beyond the control of Innomate. Innomate shall promptly notify the Buyer of the occurrence of any such event.
In the event of any such delay, defect or failure to fulfil an obligation, performance of the affected obligation shall be suspended for a period of time equal to the time of such delay, unless the delay continues for more than three (3) months, in which case Innomate may terminate the agreement in question with immediate effect without incurring any liability.
6. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
The sale and purchase of Products shall not imply any transfer or licensing of any intellectual property rights from Innomate to the Buyer, or vice versa.
7. LIMITED WARRANTY
Innomate warrants that the Products shall substantially conform to Innomate's specifications and be free from defects in design, materials, and workmanship under normal use and service for which the Products were designed for a period of twelve (12) months, calculated from the date of delivery.
8. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Innomate's maximum and accumulated liability towards the Buyer related to Innomate's performance, whether based on provisions in these Terms and Conditions, applicable law, statutes, tort law or otherwise, and irrespective of Innomate's conduct, shall in any event be limited to an amount equal to the purchase price or value of the disputed Products, whichever is lower.
Innomate shall not be liable for any lost profits or savings, loss of reputation or goodwill, claims of third parties, or any indirect, incidental, punitive, special or consequential damages, whatsoever, whether based upon breach of warranty, breach of contract, negligence, strict liability, other legal theory or any background legislation, or other losses or expenses incurred by the Buyer or any third party.
Further, Innomate shall in no event, irrespective of its conduct, be liable towards the Buyer or any third party for 1) losses or damages related to data or information stored in Products or in cloud services, or 2) losses or damages relating to the Products, other equipment, services, property or personnel, not even if such loss or damage is caused by defective Products, inaccurate or incorrect data, or malfunctioning services offered by Innomate.
