Terms and Conditions of Sale

WHERE YOU ARE PURCHASING PRODUCTS FROM US AS A CONSUMER (I.E. NOT AS A BUSINESS OR IN THE COURSE OF YOUR TRADE), SECTION 1 SETS OUT THE TERMS ON WHICH WE SELL OUR PRODUCTS TO YOU.

WHERE YOU ARE PURCHASING PRODUCTS FROM US OTHERWISE THAN AS A CONSUMER, SECTION 2 SETS OUT THE TERMS ON WHICH WE SELL OUR PRODUCTS TO YOU.

You should note that where you are required to download software from our website which is integral to the use and functionality of the goods we sell to you, that software is referred to as “integral software”. Integral software forms part of the goods: any reference to “goods” therefore also refers to integral software unless these terms state otherwise.Any software which is not integral software is referred to as “digital content”.In these terms integral software and digital content are referred to together as “software”.
  • 1.2 Software is licensed to you, and so you do not own it. Any software for which you have paid us and which you download from our website is not sold to you: it is licensed to you on the terms of the End User Licence, a copy of which can be found at https://fourieraudio.com/legal.

You agree not to download or to use any software where you do not agree to be bound by the terms of the End User Licence.Where you download or use any software you indicate your acceptance of the terms of the End User Licence. Please therefore read the terms of the End User Licence before you submit your order to us and before you download any software.
  • 1.3 Why you should read these terms. Please read these terms carefully before you submit your order to us. These terms tell you who we are, how we will provide products to you, how you and we may change or end the contract, what to do if there is a problem and other important information. If you think that there is a mistake in these terms, please contact us to discuss.

  • 7.1 Delivery costs. The costs of delivery of goods will be as displayed to you on our website.
  • 7.2 When we will provide the products.

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.

  • 7.8 Ending the contract for late delivery. If you do choose to treat the contract for an order as at an end for late delivery under clause 7.6 or clause 7.7, you can cancel your order for any of the goods or reject goods that form part of the same order that have been delivered. If you wish, you can reject or cancel part of the same order for some of those goods (not all of them), unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. After that we will refund any sums you have paid to us for those cancelled goods and their delivery. If the goods have been delivered to you, you must either post them back to us or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. We will pay the costs of postage or collection. Please call customer services or email us (see details in clause 2.2), and visit our webpage http://shop.wordpress-471493-2539756.cloudwaysapps.com/index.php?route=account/return/add for a return label or to arrange collection.
  • 7.9 When you become responsible for the goods. A product which is goods will be your responsibility from the time we deliver the product to the address you gave us.
  • 7.10 When you own goods. You own a product which is goods once we have received payment in full.

We may need certain information from you so that we can supply the products to you, for example, your delivery address for goods. 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 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.
  • 7.12 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 notified by us to you (see clause 6).

8. Your rights to end the contract

  • 8.1 You can always end your contract with us. Your rights when you end the contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, how we are performing and when you decide to end the contract:
    • (a) If what you have bought is faulty or misdescribed you may have a legal right to end the contract (or to get the product repaired or replaced or a service re- performed or to get some or all of your money back), see clause 11;
    • (b) If you want to end the contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see clause 8.2;
    • (c) If you have just changed your mind about the product, see clause 8.3. You may be able to get a refund if you are within the cooling-off period, but this may be subject to deductions and you will have to pay the costs of return of any goods;
    • (d) In all other cases (if we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind), see clause 8.6.
  • 8.2 Ending the contract because of something we have done or are going to do. If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at 8.2(a) to 8.2(d) below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided and you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:
    • (a) we have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
    • (b) there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;
    • (c) we have suspended supply of the products for technical reasons, or notify you we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than [30 days]; or
    • (d) you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong including because we have delivered late (see clause 7.6).
  • 8.3 Exercising your right to change your mind (Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013) – ‘cooling-off period’. For most products bought online you have a legal right to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. These rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in these terms. Please note that this does not apply to digital content where you have downloaded it during the cooling-off period see clause 8.4(a)).
  • 8.4 When you don’t have the right to change your mind. You do not have a right to change your mind in respect of:
    • (a) digital content after you have started to download or stream these – please note that where you download integral software for a product which you have bought from us during the cooling-off period, you will not lose your right to return the goods; and
    • (b) sealed audio or sealed video recordings or sealed computer software (unless it is integral software, once these products are unsealed after you receive them.
  • 8.5 How long do I have to change my mind? How long you have depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered.
    • (a) Have you bought goods? If so, 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) receive the last delivery to change your mind about the goods. Where you have bought goods for which you must download integral software, the 14 day time period runs from the date of delivery of the goods to which it relates.
    • (b) Have you bought digital content? If so, 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. If we delivered the digital content to you immediately, and you agreed when ordering that you would lose your right to change your mind as soon as you start downloading or streaming the digital content, you will not have a right to change your mind.
  • 8.6 Ending the contract where we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind. Even if we are not at fault and you do not have a right to change your mind (see clause 8.1), you can still end the contract before it is completed, but you may have to pay us compensation. A contract is completed for:
    • (a) goods when the product is delivered and paid for; or
    • (b) digital content when the product is downloaded and paid for.

If you want to end a contract before it is completed where we are not at fault and you have not changed your mind, just contact us to let us know. The contract will end immediately and we will refund any sums paid by you for products not provided but we may deduct from that refund (or, if you have not made an advance payment, charge you) reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your ending the contract.

    • (b) The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer.

In addition, any unauthorised service or modification of the products will void your right to a refund/repair/replacement.

12. Price and payment

  • 12.1 Where to find the price for the product. The price of the product will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We use our best efforts to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 12.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
  • 12.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT 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 takes effect.
  • 12.3 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 unmistakeable 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.
  • 12.4 When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment with the credit and debit cards listed on our website. When you must pay depends on what product you are buying:

You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
  • 12.6 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 and we will not charge you interest until we have resolved the issue.

13. Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you

  • 13.1 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, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. 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.
  • 13.2 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. To the extent permitted by law, and except as otherwise provided in these terms, we exclude all conditions, warranties, representations or other terms which may apply to your use of our products, whether express or implied
  • 13.3 We are not liable for damages caused by defective digital content in certain circumstances. If defective digital content which we have supplied damages a device or other 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.
  • 13.4 We are not liable for your use of software other than in accordance with these terms (and in particular where you breach the terms of our End User Licence). You acknowledge and agree that we shall not be responsible for any claims, losses and/or damages incurred by you as a result of you combining our software with materials/software not supplied by us or our representatives or modifying our software without our approval, or where you use our software other than in accordance with our instructions or the provisions of these terms.
  • 13.5 We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.

14. How we may use your personal information

  • 14.1 How we will use your personal information. We will use the personal information you provide to us:
    • (a) to supply the products to you;
    • (b) to process your payment for the products; and
    • (c) if you agreed to this during the order process, to give you information about similar products that we provide, but you may stop receiving this at any time by contacting us.
  • 14.2 We will only give your personal information to other third parties where the law either requires or allows us to do so.

15. Other important terms

  • 15.1 We may transfer this agreement to someone else. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation, and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract.
  • 15.2 You need our consent to transfer your rights to someone else. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing.
  • 15.3 Nobody else has any rights under this contract (except someone you pass your guarantee on to). This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
  • 15.4 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.
  • 15.5 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.
  • 15.6 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the English courts. If you live in Scotland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you live in Northern Ireland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Northern Irish or the English courts.
