Download terms and conditions of purchase

1.       Order Placing

1.1     
For our purchase orders the following conditions are effective, if not otherwise agreed in writing. As far as they do not consist of any specific characteristics only the legal regulations apply. Differing or contradictory conditions from the supplier only obligate us, if we agree with them explicitly in writing. If the order becomes executed completely or partly by the supplier, our conditions are tacitly to be considered as accepted by him completely. Special regulations which are mentioned on the front page of purchase order have priority to the below mentioned conditions. Only written purchase orders are legally binding. Verbal agreements require in either case our written confirmation. Quotations are to be submitted without obligation and free of charge for us.

1.2     
Deliveries and services which have not been ordered in writing do not justify any claims against us.

1.3     
The usage of our purchase order for advertising purposes is not permitted.

 

2.       Preise

2.1     
Our order prices apply as fixed prices for the order value. In case a price escalation clause shall apply it has to be strictly approved by us in writing, even if it is printed within the AGB of the supplier.

2.2     
The price is valid free destination, unless otherwise agreed expressly.

2.3    
Packing will only be paid, if a payment for that is explicitly agreed.

 

2.4     Alterations of price and delivery time have to be notified immediately in writing; whereas we presume most-favoured-treatment for quoted prices and payment terms.

 

3.       Delivery dates and Rescission 

3.1     
The agreed delivery dates are fixed dates. Day of delivery means receipt of goods at HETA. Non-compliance of agreed delivery periods authorizes us after reminder and expiration of an adequate additional respite to resign from the contract or to claim compensation due to non-performance.

3.2     
An early delivery may only be carried out by mutual agreement and does not affect the actual agreed payment deadline. Price reductions which occur until the actual agreed delivery date can be occupied by us.

3.3     
In cases of force majeure or unforeseeable occasions for which we are not responsible as well as strikes and lock-outs we can withdraw from the contract completely or partly or can require the performance at a later date, if the performance of our contractual obligations is made impossible or essentially difficult for us. Claims for indemnity from the supplier are not possible.

3.4     
For initial placements we reserve the return of new listed articles.

 

4.       Transport, Risk assumption, Invoice Issuing

4.1     
For the exact compliance with the assigned transport regulations solely the contractor bears the responsibility. We are authorized to refuse acceptance of deliveries, if we have no proper transport documents available by the day of material receipt, or if our order signs are not or incompletely given within the transport documents without being in default of acceptance. The contractor bears the costs for refusal of acceptance. We reserve us the further going rights due to debtor’s delay.

4.2     
The contractor bears the risk of shipment until proper reception of performance in our facility. This is also valid if in individual case delivery ex works has been agreed, or if in individual case we were supposed to carry out the transport on our own expenses. The supplier bears the costs for packing.

4.3     
Invoices have to be submitted on transport in twofold, but separated from the goods. Relevant for the payment are the quantities, weights or others which underlie the verification facts. Each invoice and all transportation documents have to show the number of purchase order, the supplier number as well as the Identification number. In case these indications are missing we assume no guarantee for the compliance with the agreed payment conditions. The authorization for discount deduction remains valid for us; furthermore we do not be in default of payment.

 

5.       Payment 

5.1     
The invoice for delivery has to be submitted separately in threefold with indication of purchase order number and supplier number. I.e. it shall not be attached to the delivery.

7.       Warranty

The seller is responsible for all defects which occur within the year starting from the acceptance. In case of remediation of defects by the seller the warranty period extends about the period from the claim until the inspection of maintenance. For reworks and spare parts begins a new warranty period insofar.

7.2     
In case of supplied faulty goods or missing assured qualities of the goods the supplier has to supply subsequently or to repair at HETA’s choice. If subsequent deliveries or repairs are impossible for the supplier or did they fail by him once before or is the supplier in default with them HETA can withdraw from the contract, send back the goods on the risk of supplier and purchase the goods elsewhere. The supplier bears the costs which result from that. In urgent cases HETA can carry out the reworks by her own after agreement with the supplier, or can authorize third party to carry out the reworks. The supplier bears the costs which result from that. The goods which had to be replaced (or parts from that) have to be provided by HETA immediately by request of the supplier and on his own costs. 

 

8.       Limitation
