1. These “General Terms and Conditions of Sale” (“GTCS”) apply to all contracts of sale of goods between (i) Disguise Technologies Limited and, where applicable, any of its subsidiaries (together, “Disguise”) and (ii) the customer (“Customer”) other than in respect of goods and/or services purchased on Disguise’s website where such other terms shall apply as Disguise determines from time to time. No deviation from or amendment to the GTCS shall be binding on Disguise unless agreed in writing between Disguise and the Customer. Disguise and the Customer may also be referred to as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties”. The term “goods” shall mean any goods ordered by the Customer from Disguise pursuant to the provision of the GTCS.
2. Any terms and conditions contained in or delivered with the Customer’s order or other document or any which are implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing shall not be binding, and the Customer waives any right, which it otherwise might have to rely on such terms and conditions, and for the avoidance of doubt these terms shall override any industry standard (including incoterms).
QUOTATIONS, ORDERS AND ORDER CONFIRMATIONS
3. Disguise may provide a quotation to a Customer upon request and such quotation may be delivered to the Customer by email (“Quotation”). Quotations are only valid for 30 days from the date of the Quotation unless otherwise specified by Disguise from time to time. A Quotation shall not constitute an offer.
4. The Customer may place any order(s) by email to Disguise in respect of such Quotation in accordance with clause 3 and Disguise shall, if accepted by Disguise in accordance with clause 5, provide the goods to the Customer as per the details (including price) contained in such Quotation (save for manifest error) in accordance with the GTCS.
5. An order shall only be deemed accepted if Disguise’s Customer Management department issues written confirmation of the acceptance of such order(s) to the Customer within 15 business days of the date of receipt of such order(s) (“Order Acknowledgement”). The contract for the sale and purchase of the goods pursuant to the Order Acknowledgement shall only come into existence at the point when such Order Acknowledgement is issued by Disguise to the Customer. An “Order Acknowledgement” may include (but is not limited to) a signed quote, issued by Disguise, an a purchase order, or a statement of work.
6. If the terms and conditions in Disguise’s Order Acknowledgement deviate from the Customer’s order(s) and the Customer wants to reject such deviation(s), the Customer must notify Disguise’s Customer Management department in writing by email to that effect at the earlier of either of the following: (i) within 5 business days of the date of receipt of the Order Acknowledgement, and (ii) prior to the packaging date of the goods, failing which the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the terms and conditions set out in the Order Acknowledgement.
DELIVERY, TRANSFER OF RISKS
7. The Customer shall state in writing whether the method of delivery is “Collection” or “Delivery to Customer” (as defined below), and the date or dates for delivery (the “Delivery Date(s)”).
8. Where the method of delivery is “Collection”:
a) the Customer or their nominated courier or agent shall collect the goods from the location or locations specified by Disguise or the Customer in writing (“Collection Location”) on the Delivery Date(s), or otherwise within three days of Disguise notifying the Customer that the goods are ready;
b) Delivery is completed on the completion of loading of the goods at the Collection Location, subject to clause 11.
9. Where the method of delivery is “Delivery to Customer”:
a) Disguise shall arrange for a carrier to deliver the goods to the location set out in the Order Acknowledgment or such other location as the parties may agree (the “Delivery Location”) on the Delivery Date(s);
b) The Customer is responsible for the costs of any carrier procured by Disguise;
c) Delivery is completed on the completion of unloading of the goods at the Delivery Location, subject to clause 11.
10. Any dates quoted for delivery are approximate only, and the time of delivery is not of the essence. Disguise shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of the goods that is caused by a Force Majeure Event (as defined in clause 49) or the Customer's failure to provide Disguise with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the goods.
11. If the Customer fails to take or accept delivery on the Delivery Date (“Customer Acceptance Failure”) then delivery is deemed to have occurred on the Delivery Date. The Customer shall be liable for payment, if applicable, for the cost of storage of these goods at Disguise’s warehouse or courier’s warehouse, and for any other reasonable costs or expenses, incurred by Disguise, due to the Customer Acceptance Failure, and Disguise reserves the right to sell the goods to a third party and to claim damages against the Customer for loss of profit and any costs incurred by the Customer Acceptance Failure.
12. Risk and Benefit in the goods passes to the Customer as follows:
(a) where the method of delivery is “Collection”, on completion of delivery.
(b) where the method of delivery is “Delivery to the Customer”, at the point at which the goods are handed to the courier.
(c) for the avoidance of doubt, even in the event that Disguise arranges shipping and/or insurance, Risk and Benefit in the goods shall always pass to the Customer at the point of shipment (i.e. collection by the courier) in both the case of Collection or Delivery to Customer. Without limiting any implied terms derived under statute, “Risk” shall mean any and all definitions given to it under common law (present and/or future), including without limitation: damage; theft; and loss; and “Benefit” shall mean the exclusive right to use the product for all functional and emotional purposes that it was intended.
13. The Customer is responsible for, and must pay:
(i) all costs relating to the goods from the time of deemed delivery in accordance with clause 8 or clause 9, as applicable;
(ii) all duties taxes, levies and other customs charges, as well as the costs of carrying out any customs formalities payable upon import and/or export; and
(iii) the reimbursement of all costs and charges incurred by Disguise in assisting the Customer to obtain any export licence or other official authorisation for the export of the goods.
14. If the goods are transported from Disguise’s warehouse by any carrier (whether organised by Disguise or the Customer), the Customer must, when the goods arrive at the destination, in order to get the goods released by the carrier sign the accompanying delivery note. If any goods are visibly damaged, the Customer must give details thereof on the delivery note and must file a claim with the carrier and with Disguise in writing via email to Disguise’s Customer Management department within 24 hours, failing which the Customer shall be deemed to have waived any rights which the Customer might have in respect of the damaged goods.
15. The Customer must thoroughly examine all goods immediately upon receipt for the purpose of ascertaining whether the goods are defective or inconsistent with the data in the Order Acknowledgement (the “Examination”). The Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the goods in respect of inconsistency with the specification in the Order Acknowledgement, which the Customer discovered or ought to have discovered during the Examination, if the Customer has not notified Disguise’s Customer Management department to the contrary in writing via email within 5 business days after delivery.
DELIVERY DELAY
16. Should Disguise not be able to deliver by the Delivery Date, Disguise shall as soon as possible notify the Customer to that effect and at the same time state when delivery is expected to take place. If delivery is expected to take place more than, or has not taken place within, 14 business days after the Delivery Date, and the delay is caused by circumstances for which Disguise is responsible, the Customer shall be entitled to reject the goods by notifying Disguise’s Customer Management department to that effect in writing via email within 3 business days after receipt of Disguise’s notification or the expiration of the 14 business days, whichever comes first, failing which notification by the Customer, the Customer shall be deemed to have waived the right to reject the goods. Except as stated in this clause 16, the Customer is not entitled to raise any other claims in the event of delayed delivery, whether claims for damages based on contract/negligent acts/omissions or otherwise. Any liability for delay or failure to deliver to the Customer shall not exceed the cost of the goods to Disguise.
WARRANTY, PRODUCT LIABILITY
17. Subject to clauses 18-26, Disguise warrants the following:
a) All finished hardware goods manufactured by Disguise will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use of the goods in the industry for a period of 24 months from the Delivery Date, whilst accessories, spare parts, and ‘b stock’ goods will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use of the spare parts in the industry for a period of 12 months from the Delivery Date. Disguise warrants to be able to deliver spare parts only during the warranty terms of the finished goods stated in this clause 17. Any third party goods that are sold to Customer as a Disguise Studio Pro bundle and/or otherwise packaged with and/or sold alongside Disguise finished hardware goods are strictly not covered by the warranty provisions of this clause.
b) All certified pre-owned goods will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use of the goods in the industry for a period of 90 days from the Delivery Date. c) Any software supplied by Disguise in connection with the goods or as a standalone product(the “Software”) is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of performance, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, omissions, completeness, currentness and delays. The Customer agrees that outputs from the Software will not, under any circumstances, be considered legal or professional advice and are not meant to replace the experience and sound professional judgment of professional advisors in full knowledge of the circumstances and details of any matter on which advice is sought. See Disguise’s Terms and Conditions for Software for further applicable terms and conditions, which can be found here - https://www.disguise.one/en/terms-and-conditions/software.
18. a) All finished hardware goods classed as “media servers” will be fitted with a tamper proof label. The removal of this label without express permission from the Disguise Technical Support and Service department will render the warranty null and void.
b) Any warranty claim by Customer based on any defect in finished goods or spare parts, which defect the Customer discovered or ought to have discovered during the Examination, shall be notified in writing via email to Disguise within 5 business days after the delivery time as stated in the Order Acknowledgement or, where the defect could not reasonably have been discovered during the Examination within 7 business days after manifestation of the defect, failing which the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the finished goods or spare parts as non-defective. Warranty claims notified by the Customer to Disguise after the expiration of the warranty terms stated in in the GTCS are not accepted.
19. Where any valid warranty claim is notified to Disguise in accordance with the terms of clause 18 and approved by Disguise in writing (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), Disguise shall be entitled to fulfill its warranty obligations as follows: (i) If the Customer can be reasonably expected to be able to repair the defect, if necessary with support from Disguise’s Technical Support and Service department, Disguise may fulfill its warranty obligations by sending the necessary replacement parts to Customer free of charge along with a replacement tamperproof label; (ii) If the Customer cannot reasonably be expected to be able to repair the defect, Disguise shall repair or replace and add a new tamperproof label to the defective finished goods or spare parts, subject to the Customer (a) assigning to Disguise all property rights to such redundant finished goods or spare parts and (b) complying, if applicable, with any reasonable request by Disguise for the Customer to return the goods and/or parts in question to Disguise. Any replacement goods or spare parts will be a) equivalent or substantially similar to the finished goods or spare parts and b) new, equivalent to new or re-conditioned; or (iii) If none of the foregoing remedies are commercially viable in Disguise’s sole judgment, Disguise may opt instead to refund to Customer the net purchase price paid by Customer for the defective finished goods or spare parts less reasonable depreciation of the value due to use or age, subject to the Customer assigning to Disguise all property rights to such finished goods or spare parts. The Customer shall have no right to use, modify or sell any redundant finished goods or spare parts that have been replaced (“Redundant Item”). The Customer shall communicate with Disguise’s Customer Management to seek direction as to how to deal with any such Redundant Item within 10 business days of the Redundant Item being replaced. The Customer shall at the direction of Disguise either (i) return to Disguise any Redundant Item; or (ii) or destroy the same. The Customer shall not return such Redundant Item to Disguise, unless Disguise has authorised the return in writing. The Customer shall assume responsibility (including all costs and expenses) for shipment, freight and adequate freight insurance back to a Disguise certified service centre. Disguise shall only assume responsibility for shipment and expense for freight and freight insurance back to the customers registered address in country of origin of the warranty claim, unless the warranty claim is not valid in Disguise’s reasonable judgment and Customer shall assume all responsibility and expense for dismantling, removal, re-installation and duties in connection with the foregoing.

20. The warranties contained herein shall not extend to any finished goods or spare parts from which any serial number has been removed or which have been damaged or rendered defective (a) as a result of normal wear and tear, willful or accidental damage, negligence, misuse or abuse; (b) due to water or moisture, lightning, windstorm, abnormal voltage, harmonic distortion, dust, dirt, corrosion or other external causes; (c) by operation outside the specifications contained in the user documentation; (d) by the use of spare parts not manufactured or sold by Disguise or by the connection or integration of other equipment or software not approved by Disguise unless the Customer provides acceptable proof to Disguise that the defect or damage was not caused by the above; (e) by modification, repair or service by anyone other than Disguise, who has not applied for and been approved by Disguise to do such modification, repair or service unless the Customer provides acceptable proof to Disguise that the defect or damage was not caused by the above; (f) due to procedures, deviating from procedures specified by Disguise; or (g) due to failure to store, move, transport, install, test, commission, maintain, operate or use finished goods or spare parts in accordance with Disguise’s instructions and training, in a safe and reasonable manner or in a manner that does not provide at least the degree of protection afforded by Disguise branded storage, transportation and installation equipment, including but not limited to transportation cases and folding transportable rigs, in terms of shock absorption and protection from vibration for the product and all its components, impact protection, ingress protection, protection from unfavorable environmental conditions, thermal insulation and strength.

Disguise will provide information on Consumables when requested to do so by Customer.
23. None of the warranties contained herein shall apply, unless the total purchase price for the defective finished goods or spare parts has been paid by the Customer to Disguise by the due date for payment in accordance with the GTCS.

25. The warranties contained herein apply only to the original purchaser and are not assignable or transferable to any subsequent purchaser or end-user.
26. To the extent lawful, Disguise shall only be liable for damage to property and for personal injuries caused as a consequence of defects in the finished goods or spare parts delivered to the extent that it is documented that such defect arose due to Disguise’s negligence that could not have been prevented by the Examination or other examination by the Customer (“Product Liability”).

27. Any support and maintenance to be provided by Disguise in respect of the Goods shall be as agreed to by the Customer on its order Quotation and excludes third party products, which shall be subject to manufacturer warranties.
RETURN OF GOODS, CANCELLATION OF ORDERS
28. Goods may not be returned to Disguise, unless Disguise has authorised the return in writing. Where Disguise has authorised the return of goods, the Customer shall follow the guidelines for returns issued by Disguise from time to time.
29. Any order(s) placed by the Customer which has been accepted by Disguise by the issue of an Order Acknowledgement are binding on the Customer and cannot be cancelled by the Customer unless to the extent that Disguise agrees in writing.

32. Disguise does not commit itself to send statements of account, In the event that Disguise does not within 30 calendar days of the date of a statement of account receive an objection in writing against its balance, the statement of account shall be deemed to be conclusive evidence of the Customer’s acceptance of the statement of account.
33. In the event that the Customer should remain in arrears with payments to Disguise for any reason for 10 business days or more, Disguise shall be entitled to: a) Terminate the Order Acknowledgement and/or any other contracts of sale and demand immediate return of all unpaid goods, delivered to the Customer, at the Customer’s expense; b) Suspend delivery of the Order Acknowledgement and/or any other contracts of sale for future delivery; c) Keep any Customer property in Disguise’s possession as a lien against such non-payment; d) Claim interest at the rate of 2% per month or any part thereof, as from the due date and until payment is made; e) Sell the goods to a third party and claim from the Customer damages for any loss suffered; and f) Suspend the Customer’s access to or use of any Software provided with the goods for which there has been no payment, which will result in the relevant goods ceasing to operate correctly or at all. At the reasonable request of the Customer, Disguise shall in writing inform the Customer of its decision to assert any of the above rights, but shall not be required to give any notice.
34. Disguise may use all monies received from the Customer towards payment of any part of any debt owing by the Customer at Disguise’s sole discretion irrespective of any instructions to the contrary by the Customer.
RETENTION OF TITLE
35.

38. The Customer shall not be entitled to pledge or in any way charge by way of security for any indebtedness any of the said goods, which remain the property of Disguise, but if the Customer does so, all monies owing by the Customer to Disguise shall (without limiting any other rights or remedy of Disguise) forthwith become due and payable.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS INFRINGEMENTS
39. To the best of Disguise’s knowledge, goods delivered by Disguise to the Customer do not infringe any third party intellectual property rights. However, Disguise does not make any warranty to that effect. Moreover, Disguise shall have no liability for any claim of infringement, which is based on marketing, distribution or use of the goods other than as authorised by Disguise and in a manner for which they were designed. In the event that goods or any part(s) thereof are held by a court of competent jurisdiction, not subject to appeal, to infringe a third party’s intellectual property right, Disguise shall in its sole discretion (a) procure for the Customer and the Customers‘ customers the right to continue to use the goods; (b) replace the goods with non-infringing goods, subject to the Customer assigning all property rights to such goods to Disguise; (c) modify the goods, or, where modification does not require any special knowledge, provide the Customer with parts enabling it to modify the goods at its own expense, to avoid infringement; or (d) recall the goods. If Disguise decides to recall the goods then Disguise shall, if the goods were delivered to the Customer within the immediately preceding two year period, refund the purchase price for the goods to the Customer less a reasonable depreciation due to age, use, and condition, subject to the Customer assigning all property rights to such goods to Disguise. If the goods were delivered to the Customer before the immediately preceding two-year period, Disguise shall not be obligated to make any refund.
40. The provisions in clause 39 constitute Disguise’s maximum liability in respect of clause 39 herein, and the Customer shall limit its liability towards its customers accordingly.

accordance with their confirmation of an order to you, at which point this contract will come into
existence between you and us.
3.2 If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the Product. This might be because the Product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for or because we have reason to believe is for onward sale other than through distribution channels approved by Disguise, or because we have identified an error in the price or description of the Product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified.
3.3 Your order number. We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.

If our supply of the Products is delayed by an event outside our control (including but not limited to third party providers you assist with any supply of such Products) then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any Products you have paid for but not received.

If you do not collect the Products from us as arranged or if, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect them from a delivery depot we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection we may end the contract and clause 10.2 will apply.

If so, this may have been stated in the description of the Products on our website or subsequently been communicated by us to you. We will contact you to ask for this information. If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (and clause 10.2 will apply) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for supplying the Products late or not supplying any part of them if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.

13.2 If you are a consumer customer. You may have additional legal rights to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. These rights may be less favourable than our standard returns policy, which will still apply even if you are a consumer.
These additional rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in the following sections. The remaining sections of this clause 13 only apply to consumer customers.
13.3 Exclusions: Your right as a consumer to change your mind does not apply in respect of:
(a) digital Products after you have started to download or stream these;

(d) any Products which become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery;
(e) any Products which are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised.
13.4 The period to change your mind: How long you have to change your mind depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered.
(a) Services: You have 14 days after the day we email you to confirm we accept your order. However, once we have completed the services you cannot change your mind, even if the period is still running. If you cancel after we have started the services, you must pay us for the services provided up until the time you tell us that you have changed your mind.
(b) Digital content for download or streaming: You have 14 days after the day we email you to confirm we accept your order, or, if earlier, until you start downloading or streaming. Once we have delivered the digital content to you, you will not have a right to change your mind.
(c) Goods: You have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the goods, unless:
- Your goods are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the last delivery.
- Your goods are for regular delivery over a set period. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the first delivery of the goods.

13.7 Cost of Return or collection.
(a) You must pay the costs of return.
(b) If we agree to collect the Products from you, we will charge you the direct cost to us of collection.
13.8 What and how will we refund you. If you are entitled to a refund under these terms we will refund you the price you paid for the Products including delivery costs, by the method you used for payment. However, we may make deductions from the price, as described below.
13.9 When we may make deduction from refunds.
(a) We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
(b) The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a Product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the Product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
(c) Where the Product is a service, we may deduct from any refund an amount for the supply of the service for the period for which it was supplied, ending with the time when you told us you had changed your mind. The amount will be in proportion to what has been supplied, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract.
13.10 When your refund will be made.
(a) If the Products are goods and we have not offered to collect them, your refund will be made within 14 days from the day on which we receive the Product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the Product back to us.
(b) In all other cases, your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind
14. PRICE AND PAYMENT
14.1 Where to find the price for the Product. The price of the Product (which excludes VAT and any other sales taxes) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 14.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Product you order.
14.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT or other sales charges changes between your order date and the date we supply the Product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Product in full before the change in the rate of VAT or sales tax takes effect.
14.3 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the Product's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.
14.4 When you must pay and how you must pay. When you must pay depends on what Product you are buying:
(a) For goods, you must pay for the Products before we dispatch them. We will not charge your credit or debit card until we dispatch the Products to you.
(b) For digital content, depending on which content we agree to provide you, you must pay for the Products either:
- Product before you download them (the purchase order shall set out the duration that you may have access to such Product); or
- on a monthly subscription basis in accordance with clause 14.5.
(c) For services, you must pay for these services before they are delivered, unless as part of a monthly subscription service.
14.5 Monthly subscription. If you have selected to purchase digital content on a monthly subscription basis then:
(a) you shall pay the due amount on a monthly basis in accordance with the any agreed terms (Due Amounts) until you or we terminate the subscription and then, subject to clause 14.5 (e)(i), such service shall terminate at the expiry of the calendar month that you have fully paid for (Termination Date);
(b) you shall remain liable for all outstanding Due Amounts up to the Termination Date together with any outstanding interest amounts as per clause 14.5(e)(i) below;
(c) you shall provide at the point of purchase valid, up-to-date and complete credit card details and any other relevant valid, up-to-date and complete contact and billing details;
(d) you shall authorise us to bill such credit card for the Due Amounts;
(e) you agree that if we have not received payment within 3 days of the due date and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies we may have:
(i) we may, without liability to you, disable your password, account and access to all or part of the services and we shall be under no obligation to provide any or all of the services while any Due Amounts or interest remain outstanding;
(ii) interest shall accrue on a daily basis on such due amounts at an annual rate of 3% over the then current base lending rate of our bankers in the UK from time to time commencing on the due date and continuing until fully repaid;
14.6 No right of set-off. You must pay all amounts due to us under these terms in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).
14.7 We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 5% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank plc from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
14.8 What to do if you think an invoice is wrong. If you think an invoice is wrong please contact us promptly to let us know. You will not have to pay any interest until the dispute is resolved. Once the dispute is resolved we will charge you interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.
14.9 Other fees. For all charges for any Products sold on the websites, Disguise or its vendors or agents will bill your credit/debit card or alternative payment method offered by us. You agree to provide valid and updated payment information and you agree to pay all such charges. When you provide credit or debit card information or other information necessary to facilitate payment to us or our vendors, you warrant and represent that you are the authorised user of the credit or debit card or alternative payment method that is used to pay for the Products. In the event legal action is necessary to collect on balances due, you agree to reimburse us and our vendors or agents for all expenses incurred to recover sums due, including legal fees and other legal expenses. You are responsible for purchase of, and payment of charges for, all internet access services and telecommunications services needed for use of the websites.
14.10 Promotional codes. From time to time, we may issue promotion codes that may be redeemed at the time of check out. These codes are non-transferable and may only be used by the intended recipient; these codes have no cash value and are not redeemable for cash. We reserve the right to cancel any promotion code and reduction redemption when the total value of the promotional code exceeds the price of the item. Multiple promotional codes may not be combined. We are not responsible for any financial loss arising out of our refusal, cancelation, or withdrawal of a promotion or any failure or inability of a customer to use a promotional code for any reason.

(b) our total liability to you for all other losses arising under or in connection with any contract between us, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, shall be limited to the total sums paid by you for Products under such contract.
16. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU IF YOU ARE A CONSUMER CUSTOMER
16.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
16.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the Products; and for defective Products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
16.3 When we are liable for damage caused by defective digital content. If defective digital content which we have supplied damages a device or digital content belonging to you and this is caused by our failure to use reasonable care and skill we will either repair the damage or pay you compensation.

18.6 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
18.7 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the Products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.

18. We don't compensate you for all losses caused by us or our On-Premises Software and Services
18.1 YOUR ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO THIS CLAUSE. You acknowledge that the On-Premises Software and Services have not been developed to meet your individual requirements, including any particular cybersecurity requirements you might be subject to under law or otherwise, and that it is therefore your responsibility to ensure that the facilities and functions of the On-Premises Software and Services as described on MyDisguise, our website and webpages meet your requirements.
18.2 Our liability to consumers.
18.2.1 If you are a consumer, we only supply the On-Premises Software and Services for your own domestic and private use.

18.2.3 We're not responsible for any losses you suffer caused by us breaching these Terms if the loss is:
-
unexpected. It was not obvious that it would happen and nothing you said to us before we accepted your order meant we should have expected it (so, in the law, the loss was unforeseeable);
-
caused by a delaying event outside our control. As long as we have taken the steps set out in the section: Events outside our control at condition 20 of this Section A; or
-
avoidable. Something you could have avoided by taking reasonable action. For example, damage to your own digital content or device, which was caused by digital content we supplied and which you could have avoided by following our advice to apply a free update or by correctly following the installation instructions or having the minimum system requirements advised by us.
18.2.4 Our liability for any losses you suffer in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession is limited, as described in condition 18.3 of this Section A below.

-
the total sums paid by you to us for the On-Premises Software at the time the breach occurred where the software product you downloaded and accessed from MyDisguise, our website or webpages and to which your claim relates requires you to pay us a licence fee to use it; or
-
the sum of £1000 where the software product you downloaded and accessed from MyDisguise, our website or webpages and to which your claim relates does not require you to pay us a licence fee to use it,
-
-
our total liability to you for all other loss or damage arising under or in connection with any contract between us for the Services, shall in all circumstances be limited to the greater of:

death or personal injury caused by negligence to the extent preserved by section 2(1) of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977;
-
fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or
-
any liability that cannot legally be limited.
18.3.3 These Terms set out the full extent of our obligations and liabilities in respect of the supply of the On-Premises Software. Except as expressly stated in these Terms:
-
there are no conditions, warranties, representations or other terms, express or implied, that are binding on us. Any condition, warranty, representation or other term concerning the provision of the On-Premises Software by us which might otherwise be implied into, or incorporated in, these Terms whether by statute, common law or otherwise, is excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law; and
-
you assume sole responsibility for results obtained from the use of the On-Premises Software and/or Services, and for conclusions drawn from such use. We have no liability for any damage caused by errors or omissions in any data, information, instructions or scripts provided to us by you in connection with the On-Premises Software and/or Services, or any actions taken by us at your direction.

If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaching these Terms, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.

DELIVERY, TRANSFER OF RISKS
7. The Customer shall state in writing whether the method of delivery is “Collection” or “Delivery to Customer” (as defined below), and the date or dates for delivery (the “Delivery Date(s)”).
8. Where the method of delivery is “Collection”:
a) the Customer or their nominated courier or agent shall collect the goods from the location or locations specified by Disguise or the Customer in writing (“Collection Location”) on the Delivery Date(s), or otherwise within three days of Disguise notifying the Customer that the goods are ready;
b) Delivery is completed on the completion of loading of the goods at the Collection Location, subject to clause 11.
9. Where the method of delivery is “Delivery to Customer”:
a) Disguise shall arrange for a carrier to deliver the goods to the location set out in the Order Acknowledgment or such other location as the parties may agree (the “Delivery Location”) on the Delivery Date(s);
b) The Customer is responsible for the costs of any carrier procured by Disguise;
c) Delivery is completed on the completion of unloading of the goods at the Delivery Location, subject to clause 11.
10. Any dates quoted for delivery are approximate only, and the time of delivery is not of the essence. Disguise shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of the goods that is caused by a Force Majeure Event (as defined in clause 49) or the Customer's failure to provide Disguise with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the goods.
11. If the Customer fails to take or accept delivery on the Delivery Date (“Customer Acceptance Failure”) then delivery is deemed to have occurred on the Delivery Date. The Customer shall be liable for payment, if applicable, for the cost of storage of these goods at Disguise’s warehouse or courier’s warehouse, and for any other reasonable costs or expenses, incurred by Disguise, due to the Customer Acceptance Failure, and Disguise reserves the right to sell the goods to a third party and to claim damages against the Customer for loss of profit and any costs incurred by the Customer Acceptance Failure.
12. Risk and Benefit in the goods passes to the Customer as follows:
(a) where the method of delivery is “Collection”, on completion of delivery.
(b) where the method of delivery is “Delivery to the Customer”, at the point at which the goods are handed to the courier.
(c) for the avoidance of doubt, even in the event that Disguise arranges shipping and/or insurance, Risk and Benefit in the goods shall always pass to the Customer at the point of shipment (i.e. collection by the courier) in both the case of Collection or Delivery to Customer. Without limiting any implied terms derived under statute, “Risk” shall mean any and all definitions given to it under common law (present and/or future), including without limitation: damage; theft; and loss; and “Benefit” shall mean the exclusive right to use the product for all functional and emotional purposes that it was intended.
13. The Customer is responsible for, and must pay:
(i) all costs relating to the goods from the time of deemed delivery in accordance with clause 8 or clause 9, as applicable;
(ii) all duties taxes, levies and other customs charges, as well as the costs of carrying out any customs formalities payable upon import and/or export; and
(iii) the reimbursement of all costs and charges incurred by Disguise in assisting the Customer to obtain any export licence or other official authorisation for the export of the goods.
14. If the goods are transported from Disguise’s warehouse by any carrier (whether organised by Disguise or the Customer), the Customer must, when the goods arrive at the destination, in order to get the goods released by the carrier sign the accompanying delivery note. If any goods are visibly damaged, the Customer must give details thereof on the delivery note and must file a claim with the carrier and with Disguise in writing via email to Disguise’s Customer Management department within 24 hours, failing which the Customer shall be deemed to have waived any rights which the Customer might have in respect of the damaged goods.
15. The Customer must thoroughly examine all goods immediately upon receipt for the purpose of ascertaining whether the goods are defective or inconsistent with the data in the Order Acknowledgement (the “Examination”). The Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the goods in respect of inconsistency with the specification in the Order Acknowledgement, which the Customer discovered or ought to have discovered during the Examination, if the Customer has not notified Disguise’s Customer Management department to the contrary in writing via email within 5 business days after delivery.
DELIVERY DELAY
16. Should Disguise not be able to deliver by the Delivery Date, Disguise shall as soon as possible notify the Customer to that effect and at the same time state when delivery is expected to take place. If delivery is expected to take place more than, or has not taken place within, 14 business days after the Delivery Date, and the delay is caused by circumstances for which Disguise is responsible, the Customer shall be entitled to reject the goods by notifying Disguise’s Customer Management department to that effect in writing via email within 3 business days after receipt of Disguise’s notification or the expiration of the 14 business days, whichever comes first, failing which notification by the Customer, the Customer shall be deemed to have waived the right to reject the goods. Except as stated in this clause 16, the Customer is not entitled to raise any other claims in the event of delayed delivery, whether claims for damages based on contract/negligent acts/omissions or otherwise. Any liability for delay or failure to deliver to the Customer shall not exceed the cost of the goods to Disguise.
WARRANTY, PRODUCT LIABILITY
17. Subject to clauses 18-26, Disguise warrants the following:
a) All finished hardware goods manufactured by Disguise will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use of the goods in the industry for a period of 24 months from the Delivery Date, whilst accessories, spare parts, and ‘b stock’ goods will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use of the spare parts in the industry for a period of 12 months from the Delivery Date. Disguise warrants to be able to deliver spare parts only during the warranty terms of the finished goods stated in this clause 17. Any third party goods that are sold to Customer as a Disguise Studio Pro bundle and/or otherwise packaged with and/or sold alongside Disguise finished hardware goods are strictly not covered by the warranty provisions of this clause.
b) All certified pre-owned goods will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use of the goods in the industry for a period of 90 days from the Delivery Date. c) Any software supplied by Disguise in connection with the goods or as a standalone product(the “Software”) is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of performance, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, omissions, completeness, currentness and delays. The Customer agrees that outputs from the Software will not, under any circumstances, be considered legal or professional advice and are not meant to replace the experience and sound professional judgment of professional advisors in full knowledge of the circumstances and details of any matter on which advice is sought. See Disguise’s Terms and Conditions for Software for further applicable terms and conditions, which can be found here - https://www.disguise.one/en/terms-and-conditions/software.
18. a) All finished hardware goods classed as “media servers” will be fitted with a tamper proof label. The removal of this label without express permission from the Disguise Technical Support and Service department will render the warranty null and void.
b) Any warranty claim by Customer based on any defect in finished goods or spare parts, which defect the Customer discovered or ought to have discovered during the Examination, shall be notified in writing via email to Disguise within 5 business days after the delivery time as stated in the Order Acknowledgement or, where the defect could not reasonably have been discovered during the Examination within 7 business days after manifestation of the defect, failing which the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the finished goods or spare parts as non-defective. Warranty claims notified by the Customer to Disguise after the expiration of the warranty terms stated in in the GTCS are not accepted.
19. Where any valid warranty claim is notified to Disguise in accordance with the terms of clause 18 and approved by Disguise in writing (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), Disguise shall be entitled to fulfill its warranty obligations as follows: (i) If the Customer can be reasonably expected to be able to repair the defect, if necessary with support from Disguise’s Technical Support and Service department, Disguise may fulfill its warranty obligations by sending the necessary replacement parts to Customer free of charge along with a replacement tamperproof label; (ii) If the Customer cannot reasonably be expected to be able to repair the defect, Disguise shall repair or replace and add a new tamperproof label to the defective finished goods or spare parts, subject to the Customer (a) assigning to Disguise all property rights to such redundant finished goods or spare parts and (b) complying, if applicable, with any reasonable request by Disguise for the Customer to return the goods and/or parts in question to Disguise. Any replacement goods or spare parts will be a) equivalent or substantially similar to the finished goods or spare parts and b) new, equivalent to new or re-conditioned; or (iii) If none of the foregoing remedies are commercially viable in Disguise’s sole judgment, Disguise may opt instead to refund to Customer the net purchase price paid by Customer for the defective finished goods or spare parts less reasonable depreciation of the value due to use or age, subject to the Customer assigning to Disguise all property rights to such finished goods or spare parts. The Customer shall have no right to use, modify or sell any redundant finished goods or spare parts that have been replaced (“Redundant Item”). The Customer shall communicate with Disguise’s Customer Management to seek direction as to how to deal with any such Redundant Item within 10 business days of the Redundant Item being replaced. The Customer shall at the direction of Disguise either (i) return to Disguise any Redundant Item; or (ii) or destroy the same. The Customer shall not return such Redundant Item to Disguise, unless Disguise has authorised the return in writing. The Customer shall assume responsibility (including all costs and expenses) for shipment, freight and adequate freight insurance back to a Disguise certified service centre. Disguise shall only assume responsibility for shipment and expense for freight and freight insurance back to the customers registered address in country of origin of the warranty claim, unless the warranty claim is not valid in Disguise’s reasonable judgment and Customer shall assume all responsibility and expense for dismantling, removal, re-installation and duties in connection with the foregoing. Repair or replacement under the warranties contained herein does not interrupt or extend the warranty terms stated in clause 17.
20. The warranties contained herein shall not extend to any finished goods or spare parts from which any serial number has been removed or which have been damaged or rendered defective (a) as a result of normal wear and tear, willful or accidental damage, negligence, misuse or abuse; (b) due to water or moisture, lightning, windstorm, abnormal voltage, harmonic distortion, dust, dirt, corrosion or other external causes; (c) by operation outside the specifications contained in the user documentation; (d) by the use of spare parts not manufactured or sold by Disguise or by the connection or integration of other equipment or software not approved by Disguise unless the Customer provides acceptable proof to Disguise that the defect or damage was not caused by the above; (e) by modification, repair or service by anyone other than Disguise, who has not applied for and been approved by Disguise to do such modification, repair or service unless the Customer provides acceptable proof to Disguise that the defect or damage was not caused by the above; (f) due to procedures, deviating from procedures specified by Disguise; or (g) due to failure to store, move, transport, install, test, commission, maintain, operate or use finished goods or spare parts in accordance with Disguise’s instructions and training, in a safe and reasonable manner or in a manner that does not provide at least the degree of protection afforded by Disguise branded storage, transportation and installation equipment, including but not limited to transportation cases and folding transportable rigs, in terms of shock absorption and protection from vibration for the product and all its components, impact protection, ingress protection, protection from unfavorable environmental conditions, thermal insulation and strength. All approvals and certifications related to goods are related to a single product and not a group of products used together.

Disguise will provide information on Consumables when requested to do so by Customer.
23. None of the warranties contained herein shall apply, unless the total purchase price for the defective finished goods or spare parts has been paid by the Customer to Disguise by the due date for payment in accordance with the GTCS.
24. The Customer shall have no other remedies in connection with defective finished goods or spare parts than the rights granted pursuant to clauses 17-23.

25. The warranties contained herein apply only to the original purchaser and are not assignable or transferable to any subsequent purchaser or end-user.
26. To the extent lawful, Disguise shall only be liable for damage to property and for personal injuries caused as a consequence of defects in the finished goods or spare parts delivered to the extent that it is documented that such defect arose due to Disguise’s negligence that could not have been prevented by the Examination or other examination by the Customer (“Product Liability”).
GLOBAL SUPPORT PACKAGES
27. Any support and maintenance to be provided by Disguise in respect of the Goods shall be as agreed to by the Customer on its order Quotation and excludes third party products, which shall be subject to manufacturer warranties.
RETURN OF GOODS, CANCELLATION OF ORDERS

29. Any order(s) placed by the Customer which has been accepted by Disguise by the issue of an Order Acknowledgement are binding on the Customer and cannot be cancelled by the Customer unless to the extent that Disguise agrees in writing.

32. Disguise does not commit itself to send statements of account, In the event that Disguise does not within 30 calendar days of the date of a statement of account receive an objection in writing against its balance, the statement of account shall be deemed to be conclusive evidence of the Customer’s acceptance of the statement of account.

At the reasonable request of the Customer, Disguise shall in writing inform the Customer of its decision to assert any of the above rights, but shall not be required to give any notice.
34. Disguise may use all monies received from the Customer towards payment of any part of any debt owing by the Customer at Disguise’s sole discretion irrespective of any instructions to the contrary by the Customer.

38. The Customer shall not be entitled to pledge or in any way charge by way of security for any indebtedness any of the said goods, which remain the property of Disguise, but if the Customer does so, all monies owing by the Customer to Disguise shall (without limiting any other rights or remedy of Disguise) forthwith become due and payable.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS INFRINGEMENTS
39. To the best of Disguise’s knowledge, goods delivered by Disguise to the Customer do not infringe any third party intellectual property rights. However, Disguise does not make any warranty to that effect. Moreover, Disguise shall have no liability for any claim of infringement, which is based on marketing, distribution or use of the goods other than as authorised by Disguise and in a manner for which they were designed. In the event that goods or any part(s) thereof are held by a court of competent jurisdiction, not subject to appeal, to infringe a third party’s intellectual property right, Disguise shall in its sole discretion (a) procure for the Customer and the Customers‘ customers the right to continue to use the goods; (b) replace the goods with non-infringing goods, subject to the Customer assigning all property rights to such goods to Disguise; (c) modify the goods, or, where modification does not require any special knowledge, provide the Customer with parts enabling it to modify the goods at its own expense, to avoid infringement; or (d) recall the goods. If Disguise decides to recall the goods then Disguise shall, if the goods were delivered to the Customer within the immediately preceding two year period, refund the purchase price for the goods to the Customer less a reasonable depreciation due to age, use, and condition, subject to the Customer assigning all property rights to such goods to Disguise.

Disguise will invoice the Customer for the prices quoted in respect of Services to be provided at the times set out in the relevant Quote or Contract for Services. Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing, Disguise’s quoted prices are for services and materials requiring standard procedures based upon the use of Disguise facilities and personnel during normal working hours.
3.2 Disguise shall be entitled to make an adjustment to any quoted prices in the event that additional costs are incurred, or likely to be incurred, by reason of:

The Customer shall indemnify Disguise against all costs, claims, expenses (including reasonable legal expenses) and/or proceedings arising out of or in connection with such payments. The Customer and Disguise shall cooperate in good faith to respond to any query from the applicable tax authorities in connection with withholding tax or other similar taxes and shall each make available to the other any information or documents and all relevant approvals or authorisations which the applicable tax authorities may reasonably require.
3.10 Any Customer requests for revisions, additions or deletions to the Services ordered by Customer or changes in the schedule for the Services (collectively, “Modifications”), shall be negotiated in good faith by the parties, and performed in accordance with the terms of one or more mutually agreed additional or updated estimates, bids, work orders, purchase orders, overages, statements of work, Quotes or Contracts for Services, whether by email or in writing (collectively, “Change Order(s)”), each of which shall set forth the Modifications, the increase or decrease, if any, in the compensation to be paid to Disguise occasioned by such Modifications, any changes to the schedule to complete such Modifications and any other proposed changes or known impacts to any other terms, conditions or assumptions in this Agreement, as mutually agreed in writing by the Customer and Disguise.

7.2 This Agreement (and any Services to be provided under it) may only be cancelled with the written consent of Disguise and in accordance with these Terms (and if applicable, the terms of any subsequent Contract for Services).

7.1 Delivery costs. The costs of delivery of Products to you will be as notified to you in writing from time to time.
7.2 When we will provide the Products. During the order process we will let you know when we will provide the Products to you. If the Products are ongoing services or subscriptions/licences, we will also tell you during the order process when and how you can end the contract.
(a) If the Products are goods. If the Products are goods we will contact you with an estimated delivery date, which will usually be within 30 days after the day on which we accept your order.

(c) If the Product is a one-off purchase of digital content. We will make the digital content available for download by you as soon as we accept your order.
(d) If the Products are ongoing services or a subscription to receive goods or digital content. We will supply these to you until either the services are completed or the subscription/licence expires (if applicable) or you end the contract as described in clause 9 or 13 or we end the contract by written notice to you as described in clause 10.
(e) If the Products are provided to you on behalf of us by a third party. That third party shall notify you on the timing of delivery.
7.3 We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the Products is delayed by an event outside our control (including but not limited to third party providers you assist with any supply of such Products) then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any Products you have paid for but not received.
7.4 If no person is available to collect when the Product is delivered. If no one is available at your address to take delivery and the Products cannot be posted through your letterbox, we will leave you a note informing you of how to rearrange delivery or collect the Products from a local depot.
7.5 If you do not re-arrange delivery. If you do not collect the Products from us as arranged or if, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect them from a delivery depot we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection we may end the contract and clause 10.2 will apply.

7.7 When you own goods. You own a Product which is goods once we have received payment in full.
7.8 What will happen if you do not give required information to us. We may need certain information from you so that we can supply the Products to you. If so, this may have been stated in the description of the Products on our website or subsequently been communicated by us to you. We will contact you to ask for this information. If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (and clause 10.2 will apply) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for supplying the Products late or not supplying any part of them if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.

(b) update the Product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements;
(c) make changes to the Product as requested by you or notified by us to you (see clause 6).
7.10 Your rights if we suspend the supply of Products. We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending supply of the Product, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. If we have to suspend the Product we will adjust the price so that you do not pay for Products while they are suspended. You may contact us to end the contract for a Product if we suspend it, or tell you we are going to suspend it, in each case for a period of more than necessary and we will refund any sums you have paid in advance for the Product in respect of the period after you end the contract.

13.2 If you are a consumer customer. You may have additional legal rights to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. These rights may be less favourable than our standard returns policy, which will still apply even if you are a consumer.
These additional rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in the following sections. The remaining sections of this clause 13 only apply to consumer customers.
13.3 Exclusions: Your right as a consumer to change your mind does not apply in respect of:
(a) digital Products after you have started to download or stream these;

(d) any Products which become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery;
(e) any Products which are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised.
13.4 The period to change your mind: How long you have to change your mind depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered.
(a) Services: You have 14 days after the day we email you to confirm we accept your order. However, once we have completed the services you cannot change your mind, even if the period is still running. If you cancel after we have started the services, you must pay us for the services provided up until the time you tell us that you have changed your mind.
(b) Digital content for download or streaming: You have 14 days after the day we email you to confirm we accept your order, or, if earlier, until you start downloading or streaming. Once we have delivered the digital content to you, you will not have a right to change your mind.
(c) Goods: You have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the goods, unless:
- Your goods are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the last delivery.
- Your goods are for regular delivery over a set period. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the first delivery of the goods.

13.6 Returning Products after ending the contract. If you end the contract for any reason after Products have been dispatched to you or you have received them, you must return them to us. You must return the goods in person to where you bought them or post them back to us at the address given above or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. Please call customer services or email using the details above to arrange a return or collection. You must send off the goods within 14 days of telling us you wish to end the contract.
13.7 Cost of Return or collection.
(a) You must pay the costs of return.
(b) If we agree to collect the Products from you, we will charge you the direct cost to us of collection.
13.8 What and how will we refund you. If you are entitled to a refund under these terms we will refund you the price you paid for the Products including delivery costs, by the method you used for payment. However, we may make deductions from the price, as described below.
13.9 When we may make deduction from refunds.
(a) We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
(b) The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a Product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the Product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
(c) Where the Product is a service, we may deduct from any refund an amount for the supply of the service for the period for which it was supplied, ending with the time when you told us you had changed your mind. The amount will be in proportion to what has been supplied, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract.
13.10 When your refund will be made.
(a) If the Products are goods and we have not offered to collect them, your refund will be made within 14 days from the day on which we receive the Product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the Product back to us.
(b) In all other cases, your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind
14. PRICE AND PAYMENT
14.1 Where to find the price for the Product. The price of the Product (which excludes VAT and any other sales taxes) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 14.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Product you order.
14.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT or other sales charges changes between your order date and the date we supply the Product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Product in full before the change in the rate of VAT or sales tax takes effect.
14.3 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the Product's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.
14.4 When you must pay and how you must pay. When you must pay depends on what Product you are buying:
(a) For goods, you must pay for the Products before we dispatch them. We will not charge your credit or debit card until we dispatch the Products to you.
(b) For digital content, depending on which content we agree to provide you, you must pay for the Products either:
- Product before you download them (the purchase order shall set out the duration that you may have access to such Product); or
- on a monthly subscription basis in accordance with clause 14.5.
(c) For services, you must pay for these services before they are delivered, unless as part of a monthly subscription service.
14.5 Monthly subscription. If you have selected to purchase digital content on a monthly subscription basis then:
(a) you shall pay the due amount on a monthly basis in accordance with the any agreed terms (Due Amounts) until you or we terminate the subscription and then, subject to clause 14.5 (e)(i), such service shall terminate at the expiry of the calendar month that you have fully paid for (Termination Date);
(b) you shall remain liable for all outstanding Due Amounts up to the Termination Date together with any outstanding interest amounts as per clause 14.5(e)(i) below;
(c) you shall provide at the point of purchase valid, up-to-date and complete credit card details and any other relevant valid, up-to-date and complete contact and billing details;
(d) you shall authorise us to bill such credit card for the Due Amounts;
(e) you agree that if we have not received payment within 3 days of the due date and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies we may have:
(i) we may, without liability to you, disable your password, account and access to all or part of the services and we shall be under no obligation to provide any or all of the services while any Due Amounts or interest remain outstanding;
(ii) interest shall accrue on a daily basis on such due amounts at an annual rate of 3% over the then current base lending rate of our bankers in the UK from time to time commencing on the due date and continuing until fully repaid;
14.6 No right of set-off. You must pay all amounts due to us under these terms in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).
14.7 We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 5% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank plc from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
14.8 What to do if you think an invoice is wrong. If you think an invoice is wrong please contact us promptly to let us know. You will not have to pay any interest until the dispute is resolved. Once the dispute is resolved we will charge you interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.
14.9 Other fees. For all charges for any Products sold on the websites, Disguise or its vendors or agents will bill your credit/debit card or alternative payment method offered by us. You agree to provide valid and updated payment information and you agree to pay all such charges. When you provide credit or debit card information or other information necessary to facilitate payment to us or our vendors, you warrant and represent that you are the authorised user of the credit or debit card or alternative payment method that is used to pay for the Products. In the event legal action is necessary to collect on balances due, you agree to reimburse us and our vendors or agents for all expenses incurred to recover sums due, including legal fees and other legal expenses. You are responsible for purchase of, and payment of charges for, all internet access services and telecommunications services needed for use of the websites.
14.10 Promotional codes. From time to time, we may issue promotion codes that may be redeemed at the time of check out. These codes are non-transferable and may only be used by the intended recipient; these codes have no cash value and are not redeemable for cash. We reserve the right to cancel any promotion code and reduction redemption when the total value of the promotional code exceeds the price of the item. Multiple promotional codes may not be combined. We are not responsible for any financial loss arising out of our refusal, cancelation, or withdrawal of a promotion or any failure or inability of a customer to use a promotional code for any reason.

15.3 Subject to clause 15.1:
(a) we shall not be liable to you, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, for any loss of profit, or any indirect or consequential loss arising under or in connection with any contract between us; and
(b) our total liability to you for all other losses arising under or in connection with any contract between us, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, shall be limited to the total sums paid by you for Products under such contract.
16. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU IF YOU ARE A CONSUMER CUSTOMER
16.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
16.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the Products; and for defective Products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
16.3 When we are liable for damage caused by defective digital content. If defective digital content which we have supplied damages a device or digital content belonging to you and this is caused by our failure to use reasonable care and skill we will either repair the damage or pay you compensation. However, we will not be liable for damage which you could have avoided by following our advice to apply an update offered to you free of charge or for damage which was caused by you failing to correctly follow installation instructions or to have in place the minimum system requirements advised by us.

18.1 YOUR ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO THIS CLAUSE. You acknowledge that the On-Premises Software and Services have not been developed to meet your individual requirements, including any particular cybersecurity requirements you might be subject to under law or otherwise, and that it is therefore your responsibility to ensure that the facilities and functions of the On-Premises Software and Services as described on MyDisguise, our website and webpages meet your requirements.

18.2.3 We're not responsible for any losses you suffer caused by us breaching these Terms if the loss is:
-
unexpected. It was not obvious that it would happen and nothing you said to us before we accepted your order meant we should have expected it (so, in the law, the loss was unforeseeable);
-
caused by a delaying event outside our control. As long as we have taken the steps set out in the section: Events outside our control at condition 20 of this Section A; or
-
avoidable. Something you could have avoided by taking reasonable action. For example, damage to your own digital content or device, which was caused by digital content we supplied and which you could have avoided by following our advice to apply a free update or by correctly following the installation instructions or having the minimum system requirements advised by us.
18.2.4 Our liability for any losses you suffer in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession is limited, as described in condition 18.3 of this Section A below.

-
the total sums paid by you to us for the On-Premises Software at the time the breach occurred where the software product you downloaded and accessed from MyDisguise, our website or webpages and to which your claim relates requires you to pay us a licence fee to use it; or

the sum of £1000 where the software product you downloaded and accessed from MyDisguise, our website or webpages and to which your claim relates does not require you to pay us a licence fee to use it,
-
-
our total liability to you for all other loss or damage arising under or in connection with any contract between us for the Services, shall in all circumstances be limited to the greater of:

fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or
-
any liability that cannot legally be limited.

-
there are no conditions, warranties, representations or other terms, express or implied, that are binding on us. Any condition, warranty, representation or other term concerning the provision of the On-Premises Software by us which might otherwise be implied into, or incorporated in, these Terms whether by statute, common law or otherwise, is excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law; and
-
you assume sole responsibility for results obtained from the use of the On-Premises Software and/or Services, and for conclusions drawn from such use.

(ii) all duties taxes, levies and other customs charges, as well as the costs of carrying out any customs formalities payable upon import and/or export; and

14. If the goods are transported from Disguise’s warehouse by any carrier (whether organised by Disguise or the Customer), the Customer must, when the goods arrive at the destination, in order to get the goods released by the carrier sign the accompanying delivery note. If any goods are visibly damaged, the Customer must give details thereof on the delivery note and must file a claim with the carrier and with Disguise in writing via email to Disguise’s Customer Management department within 24 hours, failing which the Customer shall be deemed to have waived any rights which the Customer might have in respect of the damaged goods.
15. The Customer must thoroughly examine all goods immediately upon receipt for the purpose of ascertaining whether the goods are defective or inconsistent with the data in the Order Acknowledgement (the “Examination”). The Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the goods in respect of inconsistency with the specification in the Order Acknowledgement, which the Customer discovered or ought to have discovered during the Examination, if the Customer has not notified Disguise’s Customer Management department to the contrary in writing via email within 5 business days after delivery.
DELIVERY DELAY
16. Should Disguise not be able to deliver by the Delivery Date, Disguise shall as soon as possible notify the Customer to that effect and at the same time state when delivery is expected to take place. If delivery is expected to take place more than, or has not taken place within, 14 business days after the Delivery Date, and the delay is caused by circumstances for which Disguise is responsible, the Customer shall be entitled to reject the goods by notifying Disguise’s Customer Management department to that effect in writing via email within 3 business days after receipt of Disguise’s notification or the expiration of the 14 business days, whichever comes first, failing which notification by the Customer, the Customer shall be deemed to have waived the right to reject the goods. Except as stated in this clause 16, the Customer is not entitled to raise any other claims in the event of delayed delivery, whether claims for damages based on contract/negligent acts/omissions or otherwise. Any liability for delay or failure to deliver to the Customer shall not exceed the cost of the goods to Disguise.
WARRANTY, PRODUCT LIABILITY
17. Subject to clauses 18-26, Disguise warrants the following:
a) All finished hardware goods manufactured by Disguise will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use of the goods in the industry for a period of 24 months from the Delivery Date, whilst accessories, spare parts, and ‘b stock’ goods will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use of the spare parts in the industry for a period of 12 months from the Delivery Date. Disguise warrants to be able to deliver spare parts only during the warranty terms of the finished goods stated in this clause 17. Any third party goods that are sold to Customer as a Disguise Studio Pro bundle and/or otherwise packaged with and/or sold alongside Disguise finished hardware goods are strictly not covered by the warranty provisions of this clause.
b) All certified pre-owned goods will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use of the goods in the industry for a period of 90 days from the Delivery Date. c) Any software supplied by Disguise in connection with the goods or as a standalone product(the “Software”) is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of performance, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, omissions, completeness, currentness and delays. The Customer agrees that outputs from the Software will not, under any circumstances, be considered legal or professional advice and are not meant to replace the experience and sound professional judgment of professional advisors in full knowledge of the circumstances and details of any matter on which advice is sought. See Disguise’s Terms and Conditions for Software for further applicable terms and conditions, which can be found here - https://www.disguise.one/en/terms-and-conditions/software.
18. a) All finished hardware goods classed as “media servers” will be fitted with a tamper proof label. The removal of this label without express permission from the Disguise Technical Support and Service department will render the warranty null and void.
b) Any warranty claim by Customer based on any defect in finished goods or spare parts, which defect the Customer discovered or ought to have discovered during the Examination, shall be notified in writing via email to Disguise within 5 business days after the delivery time as stated in the Order Acknowledgement or, where the defect could not reasonably have been discovered during the Examination within 7 business days after manifestation of the defect, failing which the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the finished goods or spare parts as non-defective. Warranty claims notified by the Customer to Disguise after the expiration of the warranty terms stated in in the GTCS are not accepted.
19. Where any valid warranty claim is notified to Disguise in accordance with the terms of clause 18 and approved by Disguise in writing (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), Disguise shall be entitled to fulfill its warranty obligations as follows: (i) If the Customer can be reasonably expected to be able to repair the defect, if necessary with support from Disguise’s Technical Support and Service department, Disguise may fulfill its warranty obligations by sending the necessary replacement parts to Customer free of charge along with a replacement tamperproof label; (ii) If the Customer cannot reasonably be expected to be able to repair the defect, Disguise shall repair or replace and add a new tamperproof label to the defective finished goods or spare parts, subject to the Customer (a) assigning to Disguise all property rights to such redundant finished goods or spare parts and (b) complying, if applicable, with any reasonable request by Disguise for the Customer to return the goods and/or parts in question to Disguise. Any replacement goods or spare parts will be a) equivalent or substantially similar to the finished goods or spare parts and b) new, equivalent to new or re-conditioned; or (iii) If none of the foregoing remedies are commercially viable in Disguise’s sole judgment, Disguise may opt instead to refund to Customer the net purchase price paid by Customer for the defective finished goods or spare parts less reasonable depreciation of the value due to use or age, subject to the Customer assigning to Disguise all property rights to such finished goods or spare parts. The Customer shall have no right to use, modify or sell any redundant finished goods or spare parts that have been replaced (“Redundant Item”). The Customer shall communicate with Disguise’s Customer Management to seek direction as to how to deal with any such Redundant Item within 10 business days of the Redundant Item being replaced. The Customer shall at the direction of Disguise either (i) return to Disguise any Redundant Item; or (ii) or destroy the same. The Customer shall not return such Redundant Item to Disguise, unless Disguise has authorised the return in writing. The Customer shall assume responsibility (including all costs and expenses) for shipment, freight and adequate freight insurance back to a Disguise certified service centre. Disguise shall only assume responsibility for shipment and expense for freight and freight insurance back to the customers registered address in country of origin of the warranty claim, unless the warranty claim is not valid in Disguise’s reasonable judgment and Customer shall assume all responsibility and expense for dismantling, removal, re-installation and duties in connection with the foregoing. Repair or replacement under the warranties contained herein does not interrupt or extend the warranty terms stated in clause 17.
20. The warranties contained herein shall not extend to any finished goods or spare parts from which any serial number has been removed or which have been damaged or rendered defective (a) as a result of normal wear and tear, willful or accidental damage, negligence, misuse or abuse; (b) due to water or moisture, lightning, windstorm, abnormal voltage, harmonic distortion, dust, dirt, corrosion or other external causes; (c) by operation outside the specifications contained in the user documentation; (d) by the use of spare parts not manufactured or sold by Disguise or by the connection or integration of other equipment or software not approved by Disguise unless the Customer provides acceptable proof to Disguise that the defect or damage was not caused by the above; (e) by modification, repair or service by anyone other than Disguise, who has not applied for and been approved by Disguise to do such modification, repair or service unless the Customer provides acceptable proof to Disguise that the defect or damage was not caused by the above; (f) due to procedures, deviating from procedures specified by Disguise; or (g) due to failure to store, move, transport, install, test, commission, maintain, operate or use finished goods or spare parts in accordance with Disguise’s instructions and training, in a safe and reasonable manner or in a manner that does not provide at least the degree of protection afforded by Disguise branded storage, transportation and installation equipment, including but not limited to transportation cases and folding transportable rigs, in terms of shock absorption and protection from vibration for the product and all its components, impact protection, ingress protection, protection from unfavorable environmental conditions, thermal insulation and strength. All approvals and certifications related to goods are related to a single product and not a group of products used together.
21. None of the warranties contained herein shall apply to finished goods or spare parts which are sold “as is”, as “second-hand”, as “used”, as “demo” or under similar qualifications or to Consumables as defined in clause 22.
22. “Consumables” is defined as any part(s) of goods or part(s) for use with goods, which part(s) of goods or part(s) for use with goods are consumed during the operation of the goods and which part(s) of goods or part(s) for use with goods require replacement from time to time by a user such as, but not limited to, light bulbs and smoke fluid. Disguise will provide information on Consumables when requested to do so by Customer.
23. None of the warranties contained herein shall apply, unless the total purchase price for the defective finished goods or spare parts has been paid by the Customer to Disguise by the due date for payment in accordance with the GTCS.
24. The Customer shall have no other remedies in connection with defective finished goods or spare parts than the rights granted pursuant to clauses 17-23. Except as set forth in the express warranties contained herein, Disguise makes no conditions, warranties, representations, express or implied, in fact or in law, including, but not limited to, any warranties of satisfactory quality, merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose or any warranties arising out of usage or trade, all of which are expressly excluded to the fullest extent permissible by applicable law.
25. The warranties contained herein apply only to the original purchaser and are not assignable or transferable to any subsequent purchaser or end-user.
26. To the extent lawful, Disguise shall only be liable for damage to property and for personal injuries caused as a consequence of defects in the finished goods or spare parts delivered to the extent that it is documented that such defect arose due to Disguise’s negligence that could not have been prevented by the Examination or other examination by the Customer (“Product Liability”).
GLOBAL SUPPORT PACKAGES
27. Any support and maintenance to be provided by Disguise in respect of the Goods shall be as agreed to by the Customer on its order Quotation and excludes third party products, which shall be subject to manufacturer warranties.
RETURN OF GOODS, CANCELLATION OF ORDERS
28. Goods may not be returned to Disguise, unless Disguise has authorised the return in writing. Where Disguise has authorised the return of goods, the Customer shall follow the guidelines for returns issued by Disguise from time to time.
29. Any order(s) placed by the Customer which has been accepted by Disguise by the issue of an Order Acknowledgement are binding on the Customer and cannot be cancelled by the Customer unless to the extent that Disguise agrees in writing.

32. Disguise does not commit itself to send statements of account, In the event that Disguise does not within 30 calendar days of the date of a statement of account receive an objection in writing against its balance, the statement of account shall be deemed to be conclusive evidence of the Customer’s acceptance of the statement of account.
33. In the event that the Customer should remain in arrears with payments to Disguise for any reason for 10 business days or more, Disguise shall be entitled to: a) Terminate the Order Acknowledgement and/or any other contracts of sale and demand immediate return of all unpaid goods, delivered to the Customer, at the Customer’s expense; b) Suspend delivery of the Order Acknowledgement and/or any other contracts of sale for future delivery; c) Keep any Customer property in Disguise’s possession as a lien against such non-payment; d) Claim interest at the rate of 2% per month or any part thereof, as from the due date and until payment is made; e) Sell the goods to a third party and claim from the Customer damages for any loss suffered; and f) Suspend the Customer’s access to or use of any Software provided with the goods for which there has been no payment, which will result in the relevant goods ceasing to operate correctly or at all. At the reasonable request of the Customer, Disguise shall in writing inform the Customer of its decision to assert any of the above rights, but shall not be required to give any notice.
34. Disguise may use all monies received from the Customer towards payment of any part of any debt owing by the Customer at Disguise’s sole discretion irrespective of any instructions to the contrary by the Customer.
RETENTION OF TITLE

38. The Customer shall not be entitled to pledge or in any way charge by way of security for any indebtedness any of the said goods, which remain the property of Disguise, but if the Customer does so, all monies owing by the Customer to Disguise shall (without limiting any other rights or remedy of Disguise) forthwith become due and payable.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS INFRINGEMENTS
39. To the best of Disguise’s knowledge, goods delivered by Disguise to the Customer do not infringe any third party intellectual property rights. However, Disguise does not make any warranty to that effect. Moreover, Disguise shall have no liability for any claim of infringement, which is based on marketing, distribution or use of the goods other than as authorised by Disguise and in a manner for which they were designed. In the event that goods or any part(s) thereof are held by a court of competent jurisdiction, not subject to appeal, to infringe a third party’s intellectual property right, Disguise shall in its sole discretion (a) procure for the Customer and the Customers‘ customers the right to continue to use the goods; (b) replace the goods with non-infringing goods, subject to the Customer assigning all property rights to such goods to Disguise; (c) modify the goods, or, where modification does not require any special knowledge, provide the Customer with parts enabling it to modify the goods at its own expense, to avoid infringement; or (d) recall the goods. If Disguise decides to recall the goods then Disguise shall, if the goods were delivered to the Customer within the immediately preceding two year period, refund the purchase price for the goods to the Customer less a reasonable depreciation due to age, use, and condition, subject to the Customer assigning all property rights to such goods to Disguise. If the goods were delivered to the Customer before the immediately preceding two-year period, Disguise shall not be obligated to make any refund.

7.2 This Agreement (and any Services to be provided under it) may only be cancelled with the written consent of Disguise and in accordance with these Terms (and if applicable, the terms of any subsequent Contract for Services).

If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (and clause 10.2 will apply) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for supplying the Products late or not supplying any part of them if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.
7.9 Reasons we may suspend the supply of Products to you. We may have to suspend the supply of a Product to:
(a) deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes;
(b) update the Product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements;
(c) make changes to the Product as requested by you or notified by us to you (see clause 6).
7.10 Your rights if we suspend the supply of Products. We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending supply of the Product, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. If we have to suspend the Product we will adjust the price so that you do not pay for Products while they are suspended. You may contact us to end the contract for a Product if we suspend it, or tell you we are going to suspend it, in each case for a period of more than necessary and we will refund any sums you have paid in advance for the Product in respect of the period after you end the contract.
7.11 We may also suspend supply of the Products if you do not pay. If you do not pay us for the Products when you are supposed to (see clause 14.4), we may suspend supply of the Products until you have paid us the outstanding amounts. We will contact you to tell you we are suspending supply of the Products. As well as suspending the Products we can also charge you interest on your overdue payments (see clause 14.6).

13.2 If you are a consumer customer. You may have additional legal rights to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. These rights may be less favourable than our standard returns policy, which will still apply even if you are a consumer.
These additional rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in the following sections. The remaining sections of this clause 13 only apply to consumer customers.
13.3 Exclusions: Your right as a consumer to change your mind does not apply in respect of:
(a) digital Products after you have started to download or stream these;

(d) any Products which become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery;
(e) any Products which are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised.
13.4 The period to change your mind: How long you have to change your mind depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered.
(a) Services: You have 14 days after the day we email you to confirm we accept your order. However, once we have completed the services you cannot change your mind, even if the period is still running. If you cancel after we have started the services, you must pay us for the services provided up until the time you tell us that you have changed your mind.
(b) Digital content for download or streaming: You have 14 days after the day we email you to confirm we accept your order, or, if earlier, until you start downloading or streaming. Once we have delivered the digital content to you, you will not have a right to change your mind.
(c) Goods: You have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the goods, unless:
- Your goods are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the last delivery.
- Your goods are for regular delivery over a set period. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the first delivery of the goods.

13.6 Returning Products after ending the contract. If you end the contract for any reason after Products have been dispatched to you or you have received them, you must return them to us. You must return the goods in person to where you bought them or post them back to us at the address given above or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. Please call customer services or email using the details above to arrange a return or collection. You must send off the goods within 14 days of telling us you wish to end the contract.
13.7 Cost of Return or collection.
(a) You must pay the costs of return.
(b) If we agree to collect the Products from you, we will charge you the direct cost to us of collection.
13.8 What and how will we refund you. If you are entitled to a refund under these terms we will refund you the price you paid for the Products including delivery costs, by the method you used for payment. However, we may make deductions from the price, as described below.
13.9 When we may make deduction from refunds.
(a) We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
(b) The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a Product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the Product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
(c) Where the Product is a service, we may deduct from any refund an amount for the supply of the service for the period for which it was supplied, ending with the time when you told us you had changed your mind. The amount will be in proportion to what has been supplied, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract.
13.10 When your refund will be made.
(a) If the Products are goods and we have not offered to collect them, your refund will be made within 14 days from the day on which we receive the Product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the Product back to us.
(b) In all other cases, your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind
14. PRICE AND PAYMENT
14.1 Where to find the price for the Product. The price of the Product (which excludes VAT and any other sales taxes) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 14.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Product you order.
14.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT or other sales charges changes between your order date and the date we supply the Product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Product in full before the change in the rate of VAT or sales tax takes effect.
14.3 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the Product's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.
14.4 When you must pay and how you must pay. When you must pay depends on what Product you are buying:
(a) For goods, you must pay for the Products before we dispatch them. We will not charge your credit or debit card until we dispatch the Products to you.
(b) For digital content, depending on which content we agree to provide you, you must pay for the Products either:
- Product before you download them (the purchase order shall set out the duration that you may have access to such Product); or
- on a monthly subscription basis in accordance with clause 14.5.
(c) For services, you must pay for these services before they are delivered, unless as part of a monthly subscription service.
14.5 Monthly subscription. If you have selected to purchase digital content on a monthly subscription basis then:
(a) you shall pay the due amount on a monthly basis in accordance with the any agreed terms (Due Amounts) until you or we terminate the subscription and then, subject to clause 14.5 (e)(i), such service shall terminate at the expiry of the calendar month that you have fully paid for (Termination Date);
(b) you shall remain liable for all outstanding Due Amounts up to the Termination Date together with any outstanding interest amounts as per clause 14.5(e)(i) below;
(c) you shall provide at the point of purchase valid, up-to-date and complete credit card details and any other relevant valid, up-to-date and complete contact and billing details;
(d) you shall authorise us to bill such credit card for the Due Amounts;
(e) you agree that if we have not received payment within 3 days of the due date and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies we may have:
(i) we may, without liability to you, disable your password, account and access to all or part of the services and we shall be under no obligation to provide any or all of the services while any Due Amounts or interest remain outstanding;
(ii) interest shall accrue on a daily basis on such due amounts at an annual rate of 3% over the then current base lending rate of our bankers in the UK from time to time commencing on the due date and continuing until fully repaid;
14.6 No right of set-off. You must pay all amounts due to us under these terms in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).
14.7 We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 5% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank plc from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
14.8 What to do if you think an invoice is wrong. If you think an invoice is wrong please contact us promptly to let us know. You will not have to pay any interest until the dispute is resolved. Once the dispute is resolved we will charge you interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.
14.9 Other fees. For all charges for any Products sold on the websites, Disguise or its vendors or agents will bill your credit/debit card or alternative payment method offered by us. You agree to provide valid and updated payment information and you agree to pay all such charges. When you provide credit or debit card information or other information necessary to facilitate payment to us or our vendors, you warrant and represent that you are the authorised user of the credit or debit card or alternative payment method that is used to pay for the Products. In the event legal action is necessary to collect on balances due, you agree to reimburse us and our vendors or agents for all expenses incurred to recover sums due, including legal fees and other legal expenses. You are responsible for purchase of, and payment of charges for, all internet access services and telecommunications services needed for use of the websites.
14.10 Promotional codes. From time to time, we may issue promotion codes that may be redeemed at the time of check out. These codes are non-transferable and may only be used by the intended recipient; these codes have no cash value and are not redeemable for cash. We reserve the right to cancel any promotion code and reduction redemption when the total value of the promotional code exceeds the price of the item. Multiple promotional codes may not be combined. We are not responsible for any financial loss arising out of our refusal, cancelation, or withdrawal of a promotion or any failure or inability of a customer to use a promotional code for any reason.

(b) our total liability to you for all other losses arising under or in connection with any contract between us, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, shall be limited to the total sums paid by you for Products under such contract.
16. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU IF YOU ARE A CONSUMER CUSTOMER
16.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
16.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the Products; and for defective Products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
16.3 When we are liable for damage caused by defective digital content.

2. We don't give business customers all the same rights as consumers
2.1 For example, business customers can't cancel their orders, they have different rights where there is a problem with the On-Premises Software and/or the Services, and we don't compensate them in the same way for losses caused by us or the On-Premises Software and/or the Services.
2.2 Where a term of the Agreement applies just to businesses or just to consumers, this is clearly stated.
2.3 You are a business customer if you are buying the On-Premises Software and/or Services wholly or mainly for use in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession, even if you are an individual. You are a consumer if you are buying the On-Premises Software and/or Services wholly or mainly outside of your trade, business, craft, or profession.
3. If you are a business customer this is our entire agreement with you
If you are a business customer these Terms and any document expressly referred to in it constitutes the entire agreement between us and supersedes and extinguishes all previous and contemporaneous agreements, promises, assurances and understandings between us, whether written or oral, relating to its subject matter.

7. We charge interest on late payments
If we're unable to collect any payment you owe us we charge interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% a year above the Bank of England base rate from time to time. This interest accrues on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You pay us the interest together with any overdue amount.
8. If you are a business customer, you have no set-off rights
If you are a business customer you must pay all amounts due to us under these Terms in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).

You will continue to have access to MyDisguise until the end of the current subscription period that you’ve paid for (unless we tell you otherwise), but your subscription contract won’t be renewed after that period.

To the extent permitted by law, we provide no other warranties (whether implied or otherwise) to you in relation to the On-Premises Software and/or the Services, and all such warranties are excluded.
14.5 Your remedies if you are a business. Unless an exception applies (see section: Exceptions to business customers' warranty at condition 14.6 of this Section A) if you give us notice in writing within a reasonable time of discovery that the On-Premises Software and/or the Services do not comply with the business customer warranty we shall, at our option, repair or replace the On-Premises Software and/or the Services (which may include offering you an update or patch, or a refund of the subscription price for the defective part of the On-Premises Software and/or the Services).

18. We don't compensate you for all losses caused by us or our On-Premises Software and Services
18.1 YOUR ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO THIS CLAUSE. You acknowledge that the On-Premises Software and Services have not been developed to meet your individual requirements, including any particular cybersecurity requirements you might be subject to under law or otherwise, and that it is therefore your responsibility to ensure that the facilities and functions of the On-Premises Software and Services as described on MyDisguise, our website and webpages meet your requirements.
18.2 Our liability to consumers.
18.2.1 If you are a consumer, we only supply the On-Premises Software and Services for your own domestic and private use.
18.2.2 If you use the On-Premises Software and/or Services for any commercial, business or resale purpose, our liability for any losses you suffer in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession is limited, as described in condition 18.3 of this Section A below.
18.2.3 We're not responsible for any losses you suffer caused by us breaching these Terms if the loss is:
-
unexpected. It was not obvious that it would happen and nothing you said to us before we accepted your order meant we should have expected it (so, in the law, the loss was unforeseeable);
-
caused by a delaying event outside our control. As long as we have taken the steps set out in the section: Events outside our control at condition 20 of this Section A; or
-
avoidable. Something you could have avoided by taking reasonable action. For example, damage to your own digital content or device, which was caused by digital content we supplied and which you could have avoided by following our advice to apply a free update or by correctly following the installation instructions or having the minimum system requirements advised by us.
18.2.4 Our liability for any losses you suffer in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession is limited, as described in condition 18.3 of this Section A below.
18.3 Our liability to businesses.

-
the total sums paid by you to us for the On-Premises Software at the time the breach occurred where the software product you downloaded and accessed from MyDisguise, our website or webpages and to which your claim relates requires you to pay us a licence fee to use it; or
-
the sum of £1000 where the software product you downloaded and accessed from MyDisguise, our website or webpages and to which your claim relates does not require you to pay us a licence fee to use it,
-
-
our total liability to you for all other loss or damage arising under or in connection with any contract between us for the Services, shall in all circumstances be limited to the greater of:
-
the total subscription fees paid by you to us, for the particular Services to which the loss or damage relates, in the twelve (12) calendar months immediately preceding the date of the claim; or

-
and the total liability caps in condition 18.3.2(b) and 18.3.2(c) do not apply to condition 18.4.

death or personal injury caused by negligence to the extent preserved by section 2(1) of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977;
-
fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or
-
any liability that cannot legally be limited.
18.3.3 These Terms set out the full extent of our obligations and liabilities in respect of the supply of the On-Premises Software. Except as expressly stated in these Terms:
-
there are no conditions, warranties, representations or other terms, express or implied, that are binding on us. Any condition, warranty, representation or other term concerning the provision of the On-Premises Software by us which might otherwise be implied into, or incorporated in, these Terms whether by statute, common law or otherwise, is excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law; and
-
you assume sole responsibility for results obtained from the use of the On-Premises Software and/or Services, and for conclusions drawn from such use.

No deviation from or amendment to the GTCS shall be binding on Disguise unless agreed in writing between Disguise and the Customer. Disguise and the Customer may also be referred to as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties”. The term “goods” shall mean any goods ordered by the Customer from Disguise pursuant to the provision of the GTCS.
2. Any terms and conditions contained in or delivered with the Customer’s order or other document or any which are implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing shall not be binding, and the Customer waives any right, which it otherwise might have to rely on such terms and conditions, and for the avoidance of doubt these terms shall override any industry standard (including incoterms).
QUOTATIONS, ORDERS AND ORDER CONFIRMATIONS
3. Disguise may provide a quotation to a Customer upon request and such quotation may be delivered to the Customer by email (“Quotation”). Quotations are only valid for 30 days from the date of the Quotation unless otherwise specified by Disguise from time to time. A Quotation shall not constitute an offer.
4. The Customer may place any order(s) by email to Disguise in respect of such Quotation in accordance with clause 3 and Disguise shall, if accepted by Disguise in accordance with clause 5, provide the goods to the Customer as per the details (including price) contained in such Quotation (save for manifest error) in accordance with the GTCS.
5. An order shall only be deemed accepted if Disguise’s Customer Management department issues written confirmation of the acceptance of such order(s) to the Customer within 15 business days of the date of receipt of such order(s) (“Order Acknowledgement”). The contract for the sale and purchase of the goods pursuant to the Order Acknowledgement shall only come into existence at the point when such Order Acknowledgement is issued by Disguise to the Customer. An “Order Acknowledgement” may include (but is not limited to) a signed quote, issued by Disguise, an a purchase order, or a statement of work.
6. If the terms and conditions in Disguise’s Order Acknowledgement deviate from the Customer’s order(s) and the Customer wants to reject such deviation(s), the Customer must notify Disguise’s Customer Management department in writing by email to that effect at the earlier of either of the following: (i) within 5 business days of the date of receipt of the Order Acknowledgement, and (ii) prior to the packaging date of the goods, failing which the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the terms and conditions set out in the Order Acknowledgement.
DELIVERY, TRANSFER OF RISKS
7. The Customer shall state in writing whether the method of delivery is “Collection” or “Delivery to Customer” (as defined below), and the date or dates for delivery (the “Delivery Date(s)”).
8. Where the method of delivery is “Collection”:
a) the Customer or their nominated courier or agent shall collect the goods from the location or locations specified by Disguise or the Customer in writing (“Collection Location”) on the Delivery Date(s), or otherwise within three days of Disguise notifying the Customer that the goods are ready;
b) Delivery is completed on the completion of loading of the goods at the Collection Location, subject to clause 11.
9. Where the method of delivery is “Delivery to Customer”:
a) Disguise shall arrange for a carrier to deliver the goods to the location set out in the Order Acknowledgment or such other location as the parties may agree (the “Delivery Location”) on the Delivery Date(s);
b) The Customer is responsible for the costs of any carrier procured by Disguise;
c) Delivery is completed on the completion of unloading of the goods at the Delivery Location, subject to clause 11.
10. Any dates quoted for delivery are approximate only, and the time of delivery is not of the essence.

11. If the Customer fails to take or accept delivery on the Delivery Date (“Customer Acceptance Failure”) then delivery is deemed to have occurred on the Delivery Date.

(b) where the method of delivery is “Delivery to the Customer”, at the point at which the goods are handed to the courier.
(c) for the avoidance of doubt, even in the event that Disguise arranges shipping and/or insurance, Risk and Benefit in the goods shall always pass to the Customer at the point of shipment (i.e. collection by the courier) in both the case of Collection or Delivery to Customer. Without limiting any implied terms derived under statute, “Risk” shall mean any and all definitions given to it under common law (present and/or future), including without limitation: damage; theft; and loss; and “Benefit” shall mean the exclusive right to use the product for all functional and emotional purposes that it was intended.
13. The Customer is responsible for, and must pay:

If any goods are visibly damaged, the Customer must give details thereof on the delivery note and must file a claim with the carrier and with Disguise in writing via email to Disguise’s Customer Management department within 24 hours, failing which the Customer shall be deemed to have waived any rights which the Customer might have in respect of the damaged goods.
15. The Customer must thoroughly examine all goods immediately upon receipt for the purpose of ascertaining whether the goods are defective or inconsistent with the data in the Order Acknowledgement (the “Examination”). The Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the goods in respect of inconsistency with the specification in the Order Acknowledgement, which the Customer discovered or ought to have discovered during the Examination, if the Customer has not notified Disguise’s Customer Management department to the contrary in writing via email within 5 business days after delivery.
DELIVERY DELAY
16. Should Disguise not be able to deliver by the Delivery Date, Disguise shall as soon as possible notify the Customer to that effect and at the same time state when delivery is expected to take place. If delivery is expected to take place more than, or has not taken place within, 14 business days after the Delivery Date, and the delay is caused by circumstances for which Disguise is responsible, the Customer shall be entitled to reject the goods by notifying Disguise’s Customer Management department to that effect in writing via email within 3 business days after receipt of Disguise’s notification or the expiration of the 14 business days, whichever comes first, failing which notification by the Customer, the Customer shall be deemed to have waived the right to reject the goods. Except as stated in this clause 16, the Customer is not entitled to raise any other claims in the event of delayed delivery, whether claims for damages based on contract/negligent acts/omissions or otherwise. Any liability for delay or failure to deliver to the Customer shall not exceed the cost of the goods to Disguise.
WARRANTY, PRODUCT LIABILITY
17. Subject to clauses 18-26, Disguise warrants the following:

The Customer agrees that outputs from the Software will not, under any circumstances, be considered legal or professional advice and are not meant to replace the experience and sound professional judgment of professional advisors in full knowledge of the circumstances and details of any matter on which advice is sought.

b) Any warranty claim by Customer based on any defect in finished goods or spare parts, which defect the Customer discovered or ought to have discovered during the Examination, shall be notified in writing via email to Disguise within 5 business days after the delivery time as stated in the Order Acknowledgement or, where the defect could not reasonably have been discovered during the Examination within 7 business days after manifestation of the defect, failing which the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the finished goods or spare parts as non-defective. Warranty claims notified by the Customer to Disguise after the expiration of the warranty terms stated in in the GTCS are not accepted.
19. Where any valid warranty claim is notified to Disguise in accordance with the terms of clause 18 and approved by Disguise in writing (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), Disguise shall be entitled to fulfill its warranty obligations as follows: (i) If the Customer can be reasonably expected to be able to repair the defect, if necessary with support from Disguise’s Technical Support and Service department, Disguise may fulfill its warranty obligations by sending the necessary replacement parts to Customer free of charge along with a replacement tamperproof label; (ii) If the Customer cannot reasonably be expected to be able to repair the defect, Disguise shall repair or replace and add a new tamperproof label to the defective finished goods or spare parts, subject to the Customer (a) assigning to Disguise all property rights to such redundant finished goods or spare parts and (b) complying, if applicable, with any reasonable request by Disguise for the Customer to return the goods and/or parts in question to Disguise. Any replacement goods or spare parts will be a) equivalent or substantially similar to the finished goods or spare parts and b) new, equivalent to new or re-conditioned; or (iii) If none of the foregoing remedies are commercially viable in Disguise’s sole judgment, Disguise may opt instead to refund to Customer the net purchase price paid by Customer for the defective finished goods or spare parts less reasonable depreciation of the value due to use or age, subject to the Customer assigning to Disguise all property rights to such finished goods or spare parts. The Customer shall have no right to use, modify or sell any redundant finished goods or spare parts that have been replaced (“Redundant Item”). The Customer shall communicate with Disguise’s Customer Management to seek direction as to how to deal with any such Redundant Item within 10 business days of the Redundant Item being replaced. The Customer shall at the direction of Disguise either (i) return to Disguise any Redundant Item; or (ii) or destroy the same. The Customer shall not return such Redundant Item to Disguise, unless Disguise has authorised the return in writing. The Customer shall assume responsibility (including all costs and expenses) for shipment, freight and adequate freight insurance back to a Disguise certified service centre. Disguise shall only assume responsibility for shipment and expense for freight and freight insurance back to the customers registered address in country of origin of the warranty claim, unless the warranty claim is not valid in Disguise’s reasonable judgment and Customer shall assume all responsibility and expense for dismantling, removal, re-installation and duties in connection with the foregoing.

20. The warranties contained herein shall not extend to any finished goods or spare parts from which any serial number has been removed or which have been damaged or rendered defective (a) as a result of normal wear and tear, willful or accidental damage, negligence, misuse or abuse; (b) due to water or moisture, lightning, windstorm, abnormal voltage, harmonic distortion, dust, dirt, corrosion or other external causes; (c) by operation outside the specifications contained in the user documentation; (d) by the use of spare parts not manufactured or sold by Disguise or by the connection or integration of other equipment or software not approved by Disguise unless the Customer provides acceptable proof to Disguise that the defect or damage was not caused by the above; (e) by modification, repair or service by anyone other than Disguise, who has not applied for and been approved by Disguise to do such modification, repair or service unless the Customer provides acceptable proof to Disguise that the defect or damage was not caused by the above; (f) due to procedures, deviating from procedures specified by Disguise; or (g) due to failure to store, move, transport, install, test, commission, maintain, operate or use finished goods or spare parts in accordance with Disguise’s instructions and training, in a safe and reasonable manner or in a manner that does not provide at least the degree of protection afforded by Disguise branded storage, transportation and installation equipment, including but not limited to transportation cases and folding transportable rigs, in terms of shock absorption and protection from vibration for the product and all its components, impact protection, ingress protection, protection from unfavorable environmental conditions, thermal insulation and strength.

Disguise will provide information on Consumables when requested to do so by Customer.
23. None of the warranties contained herein shall apply, unless the total purchase price for the defective finished goods or spare parts has been paid by the Customer to Disguise by the due date for payment in accordance with the GTCS.

26. To the extent lawful, Disguise shall only be liable for damage to property and for personal injuries caused as a consequence of defects in the finished goods or spare parts delivered to the extent that it is documented that such defect arose due to Disguise’s negligence that could not have been prevented by the Examination or other examination by the Customer (“Product Liability”).

29. Any order(s) placed by the Customer which has been accepted by Disguise by the issue of an Order Acknowledgement are binding on the Customer and cannot be cancelled by the Customer unless to the extent that Disguise agrees in writing.

32. Disguise does not commit itself to send statements of account, In the event that Disguise does not within 30 calendar days of the date of a statement of account receive an objection in writing against its balance, the statement of account shall be deemed to be conclusive evidence of the Customer’s acceptance of the statement of account.
33. In the event that the Customer should remain in arrears with payments to Disguise for any reason for 10 business days or more, Disguise shall be entitled to: a) Terminate the Order Acknowledgement and/or any other contracts of sale and demand immediate return of all unpaid goods, delivered to the Customer, at the Customer’s expense; b) Suspend delivery of the Order Acknowledgement and/or any other contracts of sale for future delivery; c) Keep any Customer property in Disguise’s possession as a lien against such non-payment; d) Claim interest at the rate of 2% per month or any part thereof, as from the due date and until payment is made; e) Sell the goods to a third party and claim from the Customer damages for any loss suffered; and f) Suspend the Customer’s access to or use of any Software provided with the goods for which there has been no payment, which will result in the relevant goods ceasing to operate correctly or at all. At the reasonable request of the Customer, Disguise shall in writing inform the Customer of its decision to assert any of the above rights, but shall not be required to give any notice.
34. Disguise may use all monies received from the Customer towards payment of any part of any debt owing by the Customer at Disguise’s sole discretion irrespective of any instructions to the contrary by the Customer.
RETENTION OF TITLE

38. The Customer shall not be entitled to pledge or in any way charge by way of security for any indebtedness any of the said goods, which remain the property of Disguise, but if the Customer does so, all monies owing by the Customer to Disguise shall (without limiting any other rights or remedy of Disguise) forthwith become due and payable.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS INFRINGEMENTS
39. To the best of Disguise’s knowledge, goods delivered by Disguise to the Customer do not infringe any third party intellectual property rights. However, Disguise does not make any warranty to that effect. Moreover, Disguise shall have no liability for any claim of infringement, which is based on marketing, distribution or use of the goods other than as authorised by Disguise and in a manner for which they were designed. In the event that goods or any part(s) thereof are held by a court of competent jurisdiction, not subject to appeal, to infringe a third party’s intellectual property right, Disguise shall in its sole discretion (a) procure for the Customer and the Customers‘ customers the right to continue to use the goods; (b) replace the goods with non-infringing goods, subject to the Customer assigning all property rights to such goods to Disguise; (c) modify the goods, or, where modification does not require any special knowledge, provide the Customer with parts enabling it to modify the goods at its own expense, to avoid infringement; or (d) recall the goods. If Disguise decides to recall the goods then Disguise shall, if the goods were delivered to the Customer within the immediately preceding two year period, refund the purchase price for the goods to the Customer less a reasonable depreciation due to age, use, and condition, subject to the Customer assigning all property rights to such goods to Disguise. If the goods were delivered to the Customer before the immediately preceding two-year period, Disguise shall not be obligated to make any refund.

13.1 If you are a business or consumer customer. You may return or exchange goods purchased from these websites within 30 days. Certain jurisdictions may provide additional statutory rights. Nothing herein is meant to limit your return or cancellation rights under applicable local law.
13.2 If you are a consumer customer. You may have additional legal rights to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. These rights may be less favourable than our standard returns policy, which will still apply even if you are a consumer.
These additional rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in the following sections. The remaining sections of this clause 13 only apply to consumer customers.
13.3 Exclusions: Your right as a consumer to change your mind does not apply in respect of:
(a) digital Products after you have started to download or stream these;
(b) services, once these have been completed, even if the cancellation period is still running;
(c) sealed audio or sealed video recordings or sealed computer software, once these Products are unsealed after you receive them;
(d) any Products which become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery;
(e) any Products which are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised.
13.4 The period to change your mind: How long you have to change your mind depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered.
(a) Services: You have 14 days after the day we email you to confirm we accept your order. However, once we have completed the services you cannot change your mind, even if the period is still running. If you cancel after we have started the services, you must pay us for the services provided up until the time you tell us that you have changed your mind.
(b) Digital content for download or streaming: You have 14 days after the day we email you to confirm we accept your order, or, if earlier, until you start downloading or streaming. Once we have delivered the digital content to you, you will not have a right to change your mind.
(c) Goods: You have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the goods, unless:
- Your goods are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the last delivery.
- Your goods are for regular delivery over a set period. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the first delivery of the goods.

You must return the goods in person to where you bought them or post them back to us at the address given above or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. Please call customer services or email using the details above to arrange a return or collection. You must send off the goods within 14 days of telling us you wish to end the contract.
13.7 Cost of Return or collection.
(a) You must pay the costs of return.
(b) If we agree to collect the Products from you, we will charge you the direct cost to us of collection.
13.8 What and how will we refund you. If you are entitled to a refund under these terms we will refund you the price you paid for the Products including delivery costs, by the method you used for payment. However, we may make deductions from the price, as described below.
13.9 When we may make deduction from refunds.
(a) We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
(b) The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a Product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the Product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
(c) Where the Product is a service, we may deduct from any refund an amount for the supply of the service for the period for which it was supplied, ending with the time when you told us you had changed your mind. The amount will be in proportion to what has been supplied, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract.
13.10 When your refund will be made.
(a) If the Products are goods and we have not offered to collect them, your refund will be made within 14 days from the day on which we receive the Product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the Product back to us.
(b) In all other cases, your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind
14. PRICE AND PAYMENT
14.1 Where to find the price for the Product. The price of the Product (which excludes VAT and any other sales taxes) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 14.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Product you order.
14.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT or other sales charges changes between your order date and the date we supply the Product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Product in full before the change in the rate of VAT or sales tax takes effect.
14.3 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the Product's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.
14.4 When you must pay and how you must pay. When you must pay depends on what Product you are buying:
(a) For goods, you must pay for the Products before we dispatch them. We will not charge your credit or debit card until we dispatch the Products to you.
(b) For digital content, depending on which content we agree to provide you, you must pay for the Products either:
- Product before you download them (the purchase order shall set out the duration that you may have access to such Product); or
- on a monthly subscription basis in accordance with clause 14.5.
(c) For services, you must pay for these services before they are delivered, unless as part of a monthly subscription service.
14.5 Monthly subscription. If you have selected to purchase digital content on a monthly subscription basis then:
(a) you shall pay the due amount on a monthly basis in accordance with the any agreed terms (Due Amounts) until you or we terminate the subscription and then, subject to clause 14.5 (e)(i), such service shall terminate at the expiry of the calendar month that you have fully paid for (Termination Date);
(b) you shall remain liable for all outstanding Due Amounts up to the Termination Date together with any outstanding interest amounts as per clause 14.5(e)(i) below;
(c) you shall provide at the point of purchase valid, up-to-date and complete credit card details and any other relevant valid, up-to-date and complete contact and billing details;
(d) you shall authorise us to bill such credit card for the Due Amounts;
(e) you agree that if we have not received payment within 3 days of the due date and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies we may have:
(i) we may, without liability to you, disable your password, account and access to all or part of the services and we shall be under no obligation to provide any or all of the services while any Due Amounts or interest remain outstanding;
(ii) interest shall accrue on a daily basis on such due amounts at an annual rate of 3% over the then current base lending rate of our bankers in the UK from time to time commencing on the due date and continuing until fully repaid;
14.6 No right of set-off. You must pay all amounts due to us under these terms in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).
14.7 We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 5% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank plc from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
14.8 What to do if you think an invoice is wrong. If you think an invoice is wrong please contact us promptly to let us know. You will not have to pay any interest until the dispute is resolved. Once the dispute is resolved we will charge you interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.
14.9 Other fees. For all charges for any Products sold on the websites, Disguise or its vendors or agents will bill your credit/debit card or alternative payment method offered by us. You agree to provide valid and updated payment information and you agree to pay all such charges. When you provide credit or debit card information or other information necessary to facilitate payment to us or our vendors, you warrant and represent that you are the authorised user of the credit or debit card or alternative payment method that is used to pay for the Products. In the event legal action is necessary to collect on balances due, you agree to reimburse us and our vendors or agents for all expenses incurred to recover sums due, including legal fees and other legal expenses. You are responsible for purchase of, and payment of charges for, all internet access services and telecommunications services needed for use of the websites.
14.10 Promotional codes. From time to time, we may issue promotion codes that may be redeemed at the time of check out. These codes are non-transferable and may only be used by the intended recipient; these codes have no cash value and are not redeemable for cash. We reserve the right to cancel any promotion code and reduction redemption when the total value of the promotional code exceeds the price of the item. Multiple promotional codes may not be combined.

(b) our total liability to you for all other losses arising under or in connection with any contract between us, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, shall be limited to the total sums paid by you for Products under such contract.
16. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU IF YOU ARE A CONSUMER CUSTOMER
16.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
16.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the Products; and for defective Products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.

18.1 YOUR ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO THIS CLAUSE. You acknowledge that the On-Premises Software and Services have not been developed to meet your individual requirements, including any particular cybersecurity requirements you might be subject to under law or otherwise, and that it is therefore your responsibility to ensure that the facilities and functions of the On-Premises Software and Services as described on MyDisguise, our website and webpages meet your requirements.

18.2.1 If you are a consumer, we only supply the On-Premises Software and Services for your own domestic and private use.

18.2.3 We're not responsible for any losses you suffer caused by us breaching these Terms if the loss is:
-
unexpected. It was not obvious that it would happen and nothing you said to us before we accepted your order meant we should have expected it (so, in the law, the loss was unforeseeable);
-
caused by a delaying event outside our control. As long as we have taken the steps set out in the section: Events outside our control at condition 20 of this Section A; or
-
avoidable. Something you could have avoided by taking reasonable action. For example, damage to your own digital content or device, which was caused by digital content we supplied and which you could have avoided by following our advice to apply a free update or by correctly following the installation instructions or having the minimum system requirements advised by us.
18.2.4 Our liability for any losses you suffer in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession is limited, as described in condition 18.3 of this Section A below.
18.3 Our liability to businesses.

-
the total sums paid by you to us for the On-Premises Software at the time the breach occurred where the software product you downloaded and accessed from MyDisguise, our website or webpages and to which your claim relates requires you to pay us a licence fee to use it; or
-
the sum of £1000 where the software product you downloaded and accessed from MyDisguise, our website or webpages and to which your claim relates does not require you to pay us a licence fee to use it,
-
-
our total liability to you for all other loss or damage arising under or in connection with any contract between us for the Services, shall in all circumstances be limited to the greater of:
-
the total subscription fees paid by you to us, for the particular Services to which the loss or damage relates, in the twelve (12) calendar months immediately preceding the date of the claim; or

death or personal injury caused by negligence to the extent preserved by section 2(1) of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977;
-
fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or
-
any liability that cannot legally be limited.
18.3.3 These Terms set out the full extent of our obligations and liabilities in respect of the supply of the On-Premises Software. Except as expressly stated in these Terms:
-
there are no conditions, warranties, representations or other terms, express or implied, that are binding on us. Any condition, warranty, representation or other term concerning the provision of the On-Premises Software by us which might otherwise be implied into, or incorporated in, these Terms whether by statute, common law or otherwise, is excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law; and
-
you assume sole responsibility for results obtained from the use of the On-Premises Software and/or Services, and for conclusions drawn from such use.
