Sales and delivery terms and conditions, including proprietary rights

The following sales and delivery terms and conditions apply unless agreed otherwise in writing between Inventus Group A/S, Brunbjergvej 1, DK-8240 Risskov and the Purchaser.

1.0 Prices

1.1 The specified prices include packaging but not VAT or any other fees, unless written.

1.2 Unless otherwise agreed, the Purchaser bears the cost of shipping from the supply location and all relevant taxes, duties, fees and charges.

1.3 Inventus Group A/S is entitled to change a price on the supply date as a consequence of the expiration of a campaign or in line with changes to exchange rates, purchase prices, customs duties, shipping and insurance rates or other conditions that are beyond the control and influence of Inventus Group A/S.

1.4 Price changes will appear on the Inventus Group A/S website or on information sent to customers. The price at the time of ordering will be used as a basis, regardless of the fact that the price may have fallen between the time of ordering and delivery.

1.5 Should Inventus Group A/S incur costs on behalf of the Purchaser, Inventus Group A/S may require compensation for said costs.

2.0 Payment

2.1. Unless agreed otherwise in writing, Purchaser payment terms are prepayment.

2.2 Should payment not be made on time, interest will run at 2% per month from the invoice due date. Inventus Group A/S will issue an interest statement once a month. In addition, Inventus Group A/S may charge reminder fees, debt recovery fees and other fees in connection with collection of the purchase amount, in pursuance of the law concerning debt recovery operations.

2.3 Even if the Purchaser has lodged a complaint concerning a defect or flaw, he or she is still obliged to pay promptly.

3.0 The Purchaser’s financial situation

3.1 If the Purchaser’s financial situation, in the opinion of Inventus Group A/S, does not entitle them to the established payment terms, or if the Purchaser has failed to observe payment terms for previous deliveries, Inventus Group A/S is entitled to cancel unexecuted orders, unless the Purchaser, immediately after being informed thereof, pays for all previously supplied goods and pays in advance for as yet unexecuted orders.

4.0 Payment ethics

4.1 An invoice that has fallen due must be paid according to the open item principle, i.e. prompt payment of the entire invoiced amount including a clear reference to the invoice.

4.2 Should a dispute arise concerning an invoice (concerning the price, quantity etc.), it is the duty of the Purchaser to inform inventus group a/s order processor and the debtor’s accountant of this in writing within 8 days of the invoice date. Relevant, detailed documentation and names of any Inventus Group A/S personnel who have been involved must be enclosed. The Purchaser is not entitled to withhold payment of an invoice, either in full or in part. Should a situation such as this arise, Inventus Group A/S is fully entitled to 2% interest per month in the period from the due date until payment is made, regardless of the type of dispute, in accordance with item 2.

5.0 Proprietary rights

5.1 Inventus Group A/S retains the proprietary rights to the goods that have been sold until payment has been made in full.

5.2 Inventus Group A/S may request that the Purchaser insures the goods that have been sold with a recognized insurance firm, including cover and conditions approved by Inventus Group A/S.

6.0 Offer, acceptance and order confirmation

6.1 Unless otherwise specified, an offer is only binding for Inventus Group A/S when it is accepted via return of post or email, within 5 days of the date stamped on the Inventus Group A/S offer.

6.2 Inventus Group A/S reserves the right not to sell a product.

6.3 Should the order confirmation deviate from the Purchaser’s order with regard to additions, reductions or conditions, and the Purchaser does not wish to accept these changes, this shall be communicated in writing and within two days to Inventus Group A/S. Unless this is done, the order confirmation issued by Inventus Group A/S applies.

7.0 Conditions concerning goods that are out of stock

7.1 Orders are accepted and offers issued by Inventus Group A/S for goods that are not in stock based on the possibility of obtaining the relevant products. Each offer is subject to changed decisions concerning import and export of goods. Provided that these conditions are realised, Inventus Group A/S is entitled to recall the offer, without this entitling the entity receiving the offer to make any kind of demand.

7.2 Correspondingly, statements made in the offer apply to orders accepted by Inventus Group A/S.

8.0 Delivery time and delay

8.1 Each statement of delivery time is a rough estimate and is therefore approximate.

8.2 Furthermore, Inventus Group A/S is entitled to postpone the approximate delivery time, provided that the postponement thereof is necessitated by conditions beyond the control of Inventus Group A/S, cf. item 8 concerning force majeure.

8.3 Subject to item 5.1, when the stated or specified delivery period is substantially exceeded, the Purchaser is entitled to cancel the purchase; however, delay in a delivery does not entitle the Purchaser to compensation for direct or indirect loss, regardless of the cause thereof, including negligence. This applies only to goods categorised as A goods. For goods categorised as B & C products (cf. items 11.2 B and 11.2 C), software licences (D) (cf. item 11.2 D) and options, cancellation must be approved in advance by Inventus Group A/S and must be documented in writing.

9.0 Transfer of risk

9.1 The goods are delivered from the Inventus Group a/s warehouse

9.2 When goods are transported via an Inventus Group a/s carrier, the risk responsibility for the goods is transferred on delivery to the destination, when Inventus Group A/S obtains insurance for the transport.

9.3 As standard, Inventus Group A/S provides transport at the expense of the Purchaser to the delivery address provided by the Purchaser.

9.4 Transport is paid on delivery. Inventus Group A/S will always strive to minimise the Purchaser’s shipping costs.

9.5 Shipping prices are calculated with reference to the standard prices according to currier service in play.

9.6 On payment of an extra charge, special transport may be arranged where necessary, e.g for removal personnel, cranes and unpacking.

10.0 Force majeure

10.1 Inventus Group A/S is entitled to cancel Purchaser orders or postpones their realisations and is otherwise free from responsibility for any omitted, defective or delayed delivery that is wholly or partly due to circumstances beyond the control of Inventus Group A/S, such as an uprising, unrest, war, fire, public orders, strike, lockout, slow-down, a shortage of means of transport, scarcity of goods, disease, delay or omission in deliveries from suppliers, an accident in production or testing or a power outage. All Purchaser rights are suspended or removed on these occasions. In the case of cancellation or postponed realisation, the Purchaser may not apply for damages or make any other claim against Inventus Group A/S.

11.0 Defects

11.1 Within 1 month of the product being dispatched, Inventus Group A/S undertakes to replace or repair parts that have manufacturing defects provided that:

  • 1. The Purchaser complains in good time.
  • 2. Defective goods are returned to Inventus Group A/S.
  • 3. Following an investigation, Inventus Group A/S establishes that the defects identified are due to faults in materials or implementation, do not result from poor treatment or storage, neglect, installation, repairs or changes undertaken by the Purchaser, and are not due to an accident.
  • 4. Inventus Group A/S is not responsible for defects and flaws covered by a warranty issued by the manufacturer. If the manufacturer has established such an independent warranty, it is the situation according to this warranty that applies, regardless of the drawbacks this may involve in the eyes of the customer. Inventus Group A/S will help the Purchaser and provide directions concerning the warranty and arrangement of repairs for an individual manufacturer.

11.2 With the exception of situations covered byitem 9.1, Inventus Group A/S is not responsible for flaws in the delivered goods, regardless of the cause, including negligence. It should bespecifically noted that item 8.1 does not cover software, and Inventus Group A/S cannot be held responsible for defects in the software that is delivered.

11.3 If Inventus Group A/S does not undertake redelivery or repair, and on the condition that Inventus Group A/S is bound by Danish law to provide compensation, this compensation is limited to an amount equivalent to the cost of repairing the flaws in the delivered goods and not exceeding the agreed purchase sum.

11.4 On no occasion that directly or indirectly relates to the delivered goods, their use or inventus group A/S’s output in general is Inventus Group A/S responsible for indirect losses and consequential damages, such as operational down time, wasted costs, property or other consequential damages, including lost or corrupted data. Inventus Group A/S is thus never responsible for operational down time, profit-related losses or other indirect losses.

11.5 Inventus Group A/S is not responsible for defects in goods delivered that are due to errors or neglect on the part of Inventus Group A/S suppliers or are in any other way caused by the supplier. Where Inventus Group A/S may be entitled to take action against a supplier, Inventus Group A/S hereby transfers this claim to the Purchaser, in such a way that the Purchaser is obliged to make their claim directly to the supplier.

11.6 Otherwise, for products that are sold with user instructions, see specific obligations concerning exchange/repair.

11.7 The aforementioned limitation to the compensation amount applies regardless of the motivation for or formulation of the compensation claim, and thus also covers claims that are based on negligence or oversight.

11.8 Under no circumstances is Inventus Group A/S responsible for damages that are due to the Purchaser failing to fulfil their obligations.

11.9 Inventus Group A/S does not guarantee that the products delivered will operate without faults or operational down time, or that all software errors (if any) will be corrected.

11.10 On return of DOA (dead on arrival) or defective equipment, the warranty covers repairs or a replacement product based on an assessment carried out by Inventus Group A/S. If an equivalent product cannot be obtained, Inventus Group A/S shall replace the product with an equivalent capacity or credit the customer for the market price of a new or equivalent product.

12.0 Complaints, warranty etc.

12.1 Products are supplied with the warranties that the manufacturer supplies to Inventus Group A/S. The Purchaser may not refer to any other product guarantee for Inventus Group A/S.

12.2 The Purchaser is obliged to examine the product as soon as it is received. Visible defects and flaws and damage sustained during transport shall be reported to Inventus Group A/S in writing before 4 pm on the day the product is received. Inventus Group A/S cannot subsequently be held responsible for damage sustained during transport. In the case of damage to packaging, the words “on receipt” should be noted on the packing slip on delivery of the product. Claims must be presented in writing within seven days of receipt of goods. In the case of concealed defects, the complaints period is extended to fourteen days.

12.3 Should the Purchaser fail to inform Inventus Group A/S that they wish to plead a defect within fourteen days of the transfer of the object, they may not subsequently do so, unless Inventus Group A/S has undertaken to be responsible for the object for a longer period of time or has acted fraudulently.

13.0 Returns

13.1 Goods are only accepted for return after this has been agreed in writing. Returns must be sent in the unbroken and undamaged original packaging, with the original invoice number and date or a copy thereof, and the authorisation number for returning the product (RMA no.).

13.2 Inventus Group A/S categorises all products relating to their returns policy as follows:

  • A. Standard product (a product in daily use). May be returned and 100% refund obtained.
  • B. Partially standard product (a product which is no longer in daily use, and will soon be replaced with a new model). May be returned and 26-50% of the price refunded.

Category A and B products can be returned for credit within 8 days after invoicing if:

  • Unbroken packaging

14.0 Addressee’s liability

Specific Purchaser requirements are only binding when they are specifically confirmed in writing by Inventus Group A/S.

16.0 Cancellation of an order by the Purchaser

16.1 For products in category A (cf. item 13.2), the Purchaser has the option of cancelling an order or postponing the delivery time thereof, under certain conditions and on payment of a special fee, provided that a written agreement concerning this has previously been made with Inventus Group A/S.

17.0 Configuration

17.1 On request, A/S can provide configuration benefits subject to appropriate prices and the manufacturer’s guidelines. Configuration benefits implemented according to the Purchaser’s instructions or specifications, and that are not in accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines, are implemented at the responsibility of the Purchaser. Inventus Group A/S does not provide any separate warranty for configured products.

Inventus Group A/S is not responsible for operational down time, lost earnings or any other form of direct losses. Where Inventus Group A/S may be responsible to a third party for a product, a inventus group a/s Purchaser is obliged to indemnify inventus group a/s for the liability of Inventus Group A/S, bearing in mind the limitations imposed by the three preceding items. The Purchaser is obliged to take action via the same court that is dealing with product liability proceedings against inventus group a/s Should a third party bring a claim for compensation against one of the parties with reference to the above, this party shall immediately inform the other thereof.

  • 1. The Purchaser must immediately notify Inventus Group A/S of the proceedings in writing.
  • 2. Inventus Group A/S has sole management of the case and all negotiations concerning the case judgement or settlement.
  • 3. The Purchaser agrees that Inventus Group A/S, at its own expense, can choose either to obtain the right for the Purchaser to continue using the supplied products, or to exchange/replace said products, in such a way that they no longer constitute an infringement.

A similar amount of depreciation is applied for each year of the product’s lifetime, and is fixed at all times by Inventus Group A/S.

20.4 Inventus Group A/S cannot be liable if products are designed to the Purchaser’s specifications, or if the infringement cannot be directly attributed to the supplied products, but rather to the Purchaser’s specific use thereof, including supplementation of and changes to the supplied products, or the product’s combination or use in conjunction with other products. Furthermore, Inventus Group A/S does not undertake responsibility for action taken after the Purchaser has become aware of the possible infringement.
