Business Terms & Conditions

• Please note that sub-Clause 5.1 does not exclude Our responsibility for mistakes due to negligence on Our part and refers only to variations of the correct Services, not to different Services altogether.
  
• Where appropriate, you may be required to select the required package of Services.
  
• We neither represent nor warrant that all Services will be available at all times and cannot necessarily confirm availability until confirming your Order.  Availability indications are not provided on Our Site.
  
• We make all reasonable efforts to ensure that all prices shown on Our Site are correct at the time of going online.  We reserve the right to change prices and to add, alter, or remove special offers and/or Services from time to time and as necessary.  Changes in price will not affect any Order that you have already placed (please note sub-Clause 5.8 regarding VAT, however).
  
• All prices are checked by Us when We process your Order.  In the unlikely event that We have shown incorrect pricing information, We will contact you in writing before proceeding with your Order to inform you of the mistake and to ask you how you wish to proceed.  We will give you the option to purchase the Services at the correct price or to cancel your Order (or the affected part thereof).  We will not proceed with processing your Order until you respond.  If We do not receive a response from you within three days, We will treat your Order as cancelled and notify you of the same in writing.
  
• In the event that the price of Services you have ordered changes between your Order being placed and Us processing that Order and taking payment, you will be charged the price shown on Our Site at the time of placing your Order.
  
• Prices on Our Site are shown exclusive of VAT. If the VAT rate changes between your Order being placed and Us taking payment, the amount of VAT payable will be automatically adjusted when taking payment.
  
• Orders – How Contracts Are Formed
  

1. 1. Our Site will guide you through the ordering process.  Before submitting your Order to Us you will be given the opportunity to review your Order and amend any errors.  Please ensure that you have checked your Order carefully before submitting it.
      
   2. No part of Our Site constitutes a contractual offer capable of acceptance.  Your Order constitutes a contractual offer that We may, at Our sole discretion, accept.  Our acknowledgement of receipt of your Order does not mean that We have accepted it.  Our acceptance is indicated by Us sending you an Order Confirmation by email.  Only once We have sent you an Order Confirmation will there be a legally binding contract between Us and you (“the Contract”).
      
   3. Order Confirmations shall contain the following information:
      
      1. 1. Confirmation of the Services ordered including full details of the main characteristics of those Services; and
            
         2. Fully itemised pricing for the Services ordered including, where appropriate, taxes and other additional charges.
            
   4. If We, for any reason, do not accept or cannot fulfil your Order, no payment shall be taken under normal circumstances. If We have taken payment, any such sums will be refunded to you as soon as possible and in any event within 8 days.
      
   5. If you want to change your Order, We will let you know if it is possible and at which costs and if possible endeavour to assist you with this.
      
   6. We may cancel your Order at any time before We begin providing the Services in the following circumstances:
      
      1. 1. The required personnel and/or required materials necessary for the provision of the Services are not available; or
            
         2. An event outside of Our control renders the provision of the Services impossible or difficult for Us (please refer to Clause 19 for events outside of Our control).
            
   7. If We cancel your Order under sub-Clause 6.8 and We have taken payment any such sums will be refunded to you as soon as possible and in any event within 8 days.
      
   8. Any refunds due under this Clause 6 will be made using the same payment method that you used when ordering the Services.
      

• Payment
  
  1. 1. Payment for the Services will be due in the form of an advance payment for the Services. Price and payment details will be confirmed in the Order Confirmation.  Your chosen payment method will be charged as indicated.
        
     2. All sums due must be paid in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction, or withholding (except where any deduction or withholding of tax is required by law).
        
     3. We accept the following methods of payment on Our Site:

Interest will accrue on a daily basis from the due date for payment until the actual date of payment of the overdue sum, whether before or after judgment. You must pay any interest due when paying an overdue sum.
        
     5. If you are taking out a subscription to one of the Services that require periodic payments including but not limited to Address, Post and/or Telephone Handling Services
        
        your acceptance of these Terms of Sale means you are granting Us permission under continuous payment authority of the card used to purchase the original Services for the following:
        
        1. 1. Renewable services – fees due will be processed on the card on the date of expiry of the relevant Service. Notice will always be given in advance, and you will have the right to cancel the Service.

     5. If the information you provide or the action you take under sub-Clause 8.4 is delayed, incomplete or otherwise incorrect, We will not be responsible for any delay caused as a result.  If additional work is required from Us to correct or compensate for a problem arising as a result of delayed, incomplete or otherwise incorrect information or action that you have provided or taken, We may charge you a reasonable additional sum for that work.
        
     6. In certain circumstances, for example where there is a delay in you sending Us information or taking action required under sub-Clause 8.4, We may suspend the Services.
        
     7. In certain circumstances, for example where We encounter a technical problem, We may need to suspend or otherwise interrupt the Services to resolve the issue.
        
     8. If you do not pay Us for the Services as required by Clause 7, We may suspend the Services until you have paid any and all outstanding sums due.  This does not affect Our right to charge you interest on any overdue sums under sub-Clause 7.4.
        
     9. We always use reasonable endeavours to ensure that Our Services are trouble-free.  If, however, there is a problem with the Services please contact Us as soon as is reasonable possible as specified in Clause 20.
