Terms Of Sale

The following Terms and Conditions of Sale ("Terms") will apply to any transaction between G-Type and you ("You" or the "Customer"). These Terms will exclusively govern all contracts for the supply of goods formed by G-Type’s acceptance of a customer order or a customer’s acceptance of a G-Type quotation. Any additional or inconsistent terms, including any terms and conditions set forth on a customer purchase order, will not be binding upon G-Type unless G-Type provides its express agreement in writing. PLEASE READ ALL OF THESE TERMS CAREFULLY.

1.3 Any offer made by us is without obligation and subject to change without notice unless the offer has been designated as binding in the text of the offer. A Contract will only become valid when it has been accepted in writing by us (confirmation of order) or until the order is completed or performed (e.g. delivery or download). Written confirmation of the order will be final for the contents of the Contract. Oral understandings or arrangements will require written confirmation from us to become valid and binding.
1.4 These Terms and any specific terms referred to in our quotation or order acknowledgement (and the terms and conditions of any licence under which Goods are supplied) constitute the entire understanding of the parties and shall apply to the Contract and no other contractual terms or conditions shall be of any effect with respect to the Contract unless expressly accepted by us in writing. The holding, banking, negotiation or other use of any deposit shall not constitute acceptance by us of an order.
1.5 The Customer acknowledges that certain Products purchased are subject to separate licence agreements and agrees to be bound thereby.
1.6 The provisions of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 and all non-mandatory provisions of the Electronic Commerce (EC Directive) Regulations 2002 are expressly excluded from the Contract.
1.7 We reserve the right to correct errors in our offers, invoices and communications such as spelling or arithmetical errors.

6. Returns & Refunds

7.2 We reserve the right to make partial shipments or to deliver in instalments. You agree to accept such deliveries and to pay for the corresponding partial amounts due including any shipment costs.

17. Force Majeure
Without prejudice to the generality of these Terms, we shall not be liable for any failure on our part to perform any of our obligations under the Contract where such failure is due to circumstances beyond our direct control.

The United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods is specifically excluded from these Terms.

20. No Waiver
Any failure to enforce any rights or provision of these Terms or Additional Terms shall not constitute a waiver or forfeiture of such rights or Terms or of any other right or provision hereof. No express or implied waiver by G-Type shall be construed as a continuing waiver nor shall it prevent us from acting upon that or any subsequent breach or from enforcing any right, term or condition of these Terms.

21. Severance
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful or unenforceable in whole or in part, that provision or part provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and will be deemed severable from the remaining provisions of these Terms and will not affect the validity or enforceability of any remaining provision. Should one or more provisions in these Terms be or become wholly or partially invalid, it will be replaced by a clause that comes as close as possible to the intention of the invalid provision; the same will apply in the case of an omission.
