In these Terms the following definitions apply:  Customer: means any person to whom SanTranslate supplies Services;  Order Form or Quotation: means the document issued by SanTranslate setting out (1) a description of the Services (2) the Price (3) any other relevant matters.  Price: means the price for the Services as set out on the Quotation or Invoice;
    2. Services: means the services to be provided by SanTranslate to the Customer in accordance with the Terms as set out on the Quotation or Invoice;Terms: means the standard terms set out in these terms and conditions of business;
    3. Any changes to these Terms are valid only if agreed in writing between SanTranslate and the Customer.
    4. Unless authorised in writing by SanTranslate, employees’ or agents’ representations concerning the Services are not valid.
    5. Any error or omission in any sales brochure, quotation, order form, price list, acceptance or offer, invoice or other material issued by SanTranslate (whether typographical, clerical or otherwise) may be corrected by SanTranslate without any liability on the part of SanTranslate.
    6. If there is any conflict between the Quotation and the Terms, the Quotation shall prevail.
  2. Appointment
    1. The Customer appoints SanTranslate to provide Services in accordance with the Quotation or the Order Form. The Terms apply to the Services set out in the Quotation or the Order Form. No other terms will apply to the provision of the Services.
  3. The Order Form
    1. The quantity, quality and description of the Services shall be as set out in the Quotation or the Order Form.
    2. It is the sole responsibility of the Customer to ensure the Services set out on the Quotation or the Order Form to meet its requirements.
    3. SanTranslate may make changes to the Services in order to conform with any legal requirements or which do not materially affect their quality or performance.
    4. The Customer shall at its own expense supply SanTranslate with all necessary materials and information required by SanTranslate to provide the Services in accordance with these Terms. If a failure by the Customer to provide materials or information causes SanTranslate to miss a deadline, SanTranslate deadline shall be deemed to be extended by the period of the Customer’s delay.
  4. Quality
    1. The required quality of the services to be delivered will be as defined by the Customer whether by specification or by sample. In the absence of any such specification or sample SanTranslate will endeavour to ascertain the standard required from the Customer. Where this standard cannot be ascertained, SanTranslate will assume that the purpose of the service is information and understanding as determined by the Association of Translation Companies. Where the purpose of the service is not disclosed but, in the view of SanTranslate is for other than information and understanding, SanTranslate will notify the Customer of this at the earliest practical opportunity. Should the Customer, for any reason, wish to use the service for any other purpose than that for which it was originally supplied, this will be at the Customer’s risk unless confirmation of the suitability of the service for the new purpose has been obtained from SanTranslate. Where changes are necessary to ensure that the service is suitable for the new purpose, SanTranslate will endeavour to carry out such work as is necessary at its normal rates.
  5. Delivery Date(s)
    1. The date(s) of delivery will be as specified on the Quotation or Enquiry unless otherwise agreed between the Customer and SanTranslate. SanTranslate will provide such programmes of the provision of the services as the Customer may reasonably require and notify the Customer as soon as practicable if these programmes are likely to be delayed. Where the cause of any likely delay arises from a failure of any kind of the Customer to fulfil his obligations under the contract or the programme(s) referred to above, SanTranslate will notify the Customer of this as soon as is practicable and advise the Customer of the extent of the delay; if the Buyer fails to remedy the situation within a reasonable time of such notice, the responsibility for the delay will be that of the Customer. Under such circumstances, SanTranslate reserves the right to continue with the work required as if the Customer had remedied the situation as required above. The cost of any rework arising from SanTranslate exercising this right will be borne by the Customer.
  6. Delivery
    1. All services will be delivered by the means and to the points specified in the Quotation. If the services are delivered incorrectly, SanTranslate will be held responsible for any additional expense incurred in delivering them to the correct destination.
  7. Requests for Amendments After Delivery
    1. All of our quotations include a default review period of “30 days” from the date of delivery. If the client submits any queries or requests for amendments within the review period and if SanTranslate, in its sole discretion, determines that the queries or requests for amendments are reasonable, then SanTranslate will implement the queries or requests for amendments at no cost and within a turnaround time specified by SanTranslate. If, however they are not deemed reasonable then SanTranslate will reserve the right to charge at its sole discretion, extra fees for the implementation of the queries or requests for amendments. If the client submits any queries or requests for amendments after the review period, SanTranslate will reserve the right, in its sole discretion, to charge extra fees in implementing the queries or requests for amendments.
  8. Passing of Property and Risk to the Customer
    1. The property and risk in the services will remain vested in SanTranslate until they are delivered to the point defined in the Quotation.
  9. Price and Payment

    2. Unless the subject of a genuine dispute, the Customer shall pay the Price within the date set out in the Invoice (the “Due Date”).
    3. The Price may include VAT or Sales Tax depending on the Customer’s location which the Customer shall pay in addition to the Price at the rate prevailing on the date of the invoice.
    4. Should the Customer fail to make any payment in full on the Due Date under this agreement, SanTranslate may charge interest on the outstanding amount. Such interest shall accrue on a daily basis at the rate of 8% above the base rate of HSBC Bank PLC from time to time from the due date until the date of payment, whether before or after judgment.
    5. If, because of a factor beyond the control of SanTranslate, the cost to SanTranslate of providing the Services increases, SanTranslate may before delivery increase the Price of the Services.
    6. The Customer will pay the Price for the Services.
    7. All amounts due under these Terms shall be paid in full without any deduction or withholding other than as required by law and neither party shall be entitled to assert any credit, set-off or counterclaim against the other party in order to justify withholding payment of any such amount in whole or in part.
  10. Acceptance
    1. The Customer shall have the right to reject the services, in whole or in part, which do not conform to the specifications or samples provided or, in the absence of such specifications or samples, do not fall within the normal standards of the translation profession within 28 days of the receipt of the services.
  11. Variations
    1. The Customer shall have the right, from time to time during the execution of the contract, by notice to SanTranslate in writing, to add, omit from, or otherwise vary the services and SanTranslate shall carry out such variations and be bound by the same conditions, in so far as they are applicable, as if the said variations were part of the contract. All the costs of such variations shall be borne by the Customer. Where SanTranslate receives any such direction which would occasion an amendment to the contract price, SanTranslate shall advise the Customer of the cost of any such amendment ascertained and determined at the same level of pricing as was used to estimate the original contract costs. If, in the opinion of SanTranslate, any such variation is likely to prevent SanTranslate from fulfilling any or all of her obligations under the contract, she shall so notify the Customer who will decide with all possible speed whether or not the same shall be carried out and shall confirm his instructions in writing and modify the said obligations to the extent that may be justified. The instructions shall not be deemed to have been given until SanTranslate receives the instruction from the Customer.
  12. Loss or Damage in Transit

    2.

    1. SanTranslate may bring an action against the Customer for the price of the Services if the Customer fails to pay for them in full by the Due Date.
  14. Authenticity

    1. Once payment has been made to SanTranslate for any on-line ordering services, all obligations in this Terms and Conditions becomes active.
    2. An offer is made when the Customer makes payment to SanTranslate. The offer will then be accepted by SanTranslate provided that the Customer provides accurate information during the on-line ordering stage and will therefore enable the contract to be formalised.
    3. If the information provided by the Customer is inadequate or insufficient to fulfill the contract of the service, SanTranslate reserves the rights to adjust the final price of the service.  If so, the amount will be refunded if the Customer refuses the offer or further amount will be requested by SanTranslate.  The Customer must complete the payment transaction of the adjusted price to formulate the contract.
    4. Once formalised, the agreed fee will become non-refundable (Without prejudice to section 9 of these Terms). Any attempt by the Customer to cancel or change the scope of the contract will result in the Customer being obliged to pay the agreed fee in full. The agreed fee will likewise be deemed non-refundable and fall due should the contract become frustrated by any act or omission from the Customer.
    5. Should the Customer wish to cancel or change the scope of the contract, notice of said cancellation or reduction must be given to SanTranslate in writing as soon as reasonably possible
