Terms & Conditions

Terms used

‘The seller’ refers to Occasion Lab Limited, trading as Together.

‘The buyer’ refers to any person or legal entity purchasing from the seller.

General

These Terms and Conditions shall prevail over any terms contained in any order or offer made by the buyer or any document used by the buyer (which shall have no effect). This website is the property of the seller and any use of the website design or it’s contents, other than as expressly provided for within these Terms and Conditions is strictly prohibited.

Privacy and Personal Information

You authorise OccasionLab Limited to collect, retain and use any information about you for communication purposes and the purpose of enforcing any rights under these Terms and to disclose information obtained to any person for such purpose. If at any time, you would like a copy of your information or you discover that any personal information we hold about you is incorrect, you may contact us by email. You accept and acknowledge the risk that transmission of data to and from our website over the internet may be intercepted, used and modified by third parties and that materials obtained from and through our website may contain computer viruses or other defects. You agree and acknowledge that we will not be held responsible for events arising from unauthorised use of your personal information that we hold or otherwise.

Ordering

The seller's website, the information on it and any information in emails constitute an invitation to treat and not an offer to supply products. When the buyer orders products from the seller, this constitutes an offer from the buyer to buy those products in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. The seller's acceptance of the buyer's order occurs (and the contract is formed) when the goods are dispatched to the buyer.

Order process

The buyer may order products from the seller by completing and submitting the checkout process on the seller's website. The buyer must provide all required information or the seller may not be able to process the buyer's order.

The sellers discretion in rejecting orders

No order shall be deemed accepted by the seller until the seller has sent the buyers order. The seller reserves the exclusive right to accept or reject (for any reason whatsoever and in whole or in part) any order submitted by the buyer. If the seller rejects the buyers order (or part of the order), any money paid by the buyer in relation to the rejected part of that order shall be refunded and the seller shall have no further liability to the buyer in relation to the rejected part of that order.

Consumer Guarantees Act 1993

In the event the buyer is acquiring the product for personal purposes, then these conditions of sale shall be interpreted subject to the purchaser's rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (“the Act”), to the intent that no provisions shall any way limit the purchaser's rights under the Act.

However, if the buyer is acquiring products from the seller for the purposes of a business, then the guarantees and remedies provided under the Act shall not apply to the supply of those products.

Overseas orders

Except for New Zealand Goods and Services Tax, prices do not include import fees, duties, tariffs, taxes or other imports or charges which may be payable in relation to the buyer's order. The buyer shall be liable to pay any import fees, duties, taxes, and other imports or charges which are payable in relation to buyer’s order.

Where the buyer and the seller agree to a variation in the quantity of the goods, the goods shall be priced either at the rate applicable to the original quantity or the revised quantity at the absolute discretion of the seller.

The seller may vary any prices on the seller's website at any time and without notice to the buyer.

Product availability

All orders are subject to the availability of products. If for any reason a product is not available, the seller will endeavour to notify the non-availability on this website. The seller may revise the range of products or the specification of any product at any time and without notice to the buyer.

Cancellation of orders

Where products are listed on the seller's website with an incorrect price or with incorrect information, the seller reserves the right to cancel the buyers order (regardless of whether the buyer has made payment for that order). Where the buyer has already made payment for an order that is subsequently cancelled by the seller, the seller will refund the amount paid by the buyer in relation to that order.

The buyer may cancel their order any time prior to dispatch. Any variation, waiver or cancellation of the buyer's order shall have no effect unless accepted in writing by the seller.

Delivery

Once the seller has confirmed acceptance of the buyer's order, the seller will endeavour to dispatch the buyer's order within the specified timeframe. If the seller is unable to dispatch the buyer's order within the time frame specified the seller will endeavour to contact the buyer and advise the buyer of the expected dispatch date.

The seller reserves the right to dispatch the buyer's order in one delivery or by instalments. Failure to deliver any instalment shall not entitle the buyer to repudiate the contract as to any instalments already delivered. The buyer may cancel any undelivered instalments up until the instalment is dispatched.

Any quotations of delivery times by the seller are made in good faith but are estimates and the seller shall not be bound by such quotation and the seller will not be liable for any loss, expense, or other damage caused by any delay in delivery.

The buyer may specify delivery instructions for an order (for example, the buyer may authorise the delivery agent to leave the products in a specified location if the buyer will not be at the delivery address). The seller will not be responsible for any order that is delivered in accordance with the buyers delivery instructions.

Shortages, damages or loss in transit

The seller accepts no responsibility for damages or loss in transit. Refer all queries directly to the delivery service used for the specified delivery.

Liability for shortages in the quantity of goods delivered is limited to making up the shortages. Where the buyer believes that there is a shortage in the quantity of products delivered, the buyer must notify the seller of any such claim within 7 days of delivery and must provide the seller with a reasonable opportunity to investigate that claim.

Return of goods for credit or refund

Goods supplied in accordance with the buyer's order can only be returned with the express approval of the seller.

Order Changes & Cancellations

If for any reason you would like to change or cancel your order, you can do this up until the order has been dispatched. If your order has already been dispatched, then please refer to our refunds and replacements process.

Liability and maintenance guarantee

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the seller disclaims all warranties, representations, and guarantees (whether, express, implied, or statutory), with respect to any product or any information supplied to the buyer by the seller including, but not limited to, warranties of availability, accuracy, non-infringement, completeness, timeliness, currency, merchantability, or fitness for a particular purpose.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the seller’s liability to the buyer (whether in contract, tort, or otherwise) for any loss, damage, or injury arising from any defect in, or non-compliance of, a product supplied to the buyer by the seller shall be limited to the price paid by the buyer for that product.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the seller will not be liable (whether in contract, tort, or otherwise) for any loss of profits, or any indirect, incidental, consequential, or economic loss or damage (howsoever caused), which you may directly or indirectly suffer in connection with the buyer’s access to, use of, or reliance upon, any product or any information supplied to the buyer by the seller.

In lieu of any warranty, condition, or liability by law, the seller's liability in respect of any defect in or failure of the goods supplied, or for any loss, injury, or damage attributable thereto, is limited to making good the replacement or repair of defects arising under normal proper use and maintenance arising solely from faulty design, materials, or workmanship within the guarantee period, if stated, or otherwise within 90 days of the date of supply, provided always that such defective parts are returned to the seller within 14 days, unless otherwise arranged.

At the termination of the appropriate period (ie guarantee period) all liability on the seller's part ceases.

The warranty does not cover damage from misuse, accident, negligent, inappropriate, or improper operation, maintenance, installation, modification or adjustment.

The seller's liability under this contract and the warranty in this clause is confined to the buyer named in this contract, it being agreed that the seller has no liability to any purchaser of the goods from the buyer in that the buyer's rights under the contract are not assignable without the prior written consent of the seller.

Errors or omissions

The seller is entitled at any time to correct all errors and omissions (whether clerical, computational or otherwise) in any advertising, quotation, invoice or acknowledgement. Due to the seller's admi­nistrative processes, errors (if any) may be discovered after the goods have been delivered to the buyer. The seller will notify the buyer promptly of any error or omissions discovered by the seller and give the buyer the option of returning the goods for a full refund.

Ownership

Ownership of all goods sold by the seller (“the goods”) is retained by the seller until the seller has received the full price for the products and the applicable delivery charges. This provision is designed to protect the seller in the event of the bankruptcy, receivership or liquidation of the
buyer, a seizure of goods by a creditor of the buyer or default in payment.

Until full payment is made the buyer agrees to:

Enable the goods to be readily identifiable as the property of the seller.

Maintain the goods so supplied in good order and condition and to return the goods immediately if called upon to do so by the seller.

On a sale or other realisation of the goods the buyer shall identify and separately account for the proceeds of sale.

Intellectual Property

The parties acknowledge that no products being bought and sold include any intellectual property rights whatsoever. This includes, but is not limited to copyright, trademarks, designs, and patents. For the avoidance of doubt, no intellectual property rights pass from the seller to the buyer at any stage, and any intellectual property rights belonging to the seller will remain the property of the seller.

Risk

Once the buyers order has been dispatched to the buyer, the buyer assumes full responsibility for and risk in the products.

Description of products

Modifications and improvements to the seller's products, prices and data are constantly being made.

Although the seller has endeavoured to ensure that the product and pricing information provided on its website is accurate, complete, and current, the seller does not provide any representations or warranties as to its accuracy, completeness or currency of information, and the seller shall not be responsible or liable for any inaccurate, incomplete, or out-of-date information on this website.

The seller also relies on information from its product manufacturers and therefore the descriptions, illustrations and literature are not binding on the seller.

If the goods do not match the description on the seller's website, the buyer should inform the seller immediately so that the seller may take the appropriate action.

Force majeure

The seller shall not be liable to the buyer for any loss or damage, directly or indirectly arising out of or in connection with any delay in delivery of the goods, or failure to perform any term of this contract where such delay or failure is outside the seller's reasonable control.

Compliance

The buyer shall be solely responsible for obtaining any necessary permits under (and for compliance with) all legislation, regulations, by-laws and rules that apply to the use of any products you purchase from the seller.

Changes to these terms and conditions

The seller reserves the right to change these Terms and Conditions from time to time by publishing the changed terms on the seller's website. When revised Terms and Conditions are published on this website, all orders submitted by the buyer after the revised Terms and Conditions are published shall be subject to the revised Terms and Conditions.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions shall, to the maximum extent possible, remain in full force and effect.
