Terms and Conditions of Sale of Goods and Services
We Print Lanyards, a trading unit of CCL Industries (UK) Ltd
All orders for goods and services are accepted by We Print Lanyards
(“the Vendor”) subject to the following conditions, which shall form
part of and govern the contract of sale.
All orders placed are accepted under these terms and cannot be
cancelled without the agreement of the Vendor. Any term sought to be
imposed by a purchaser, either in a document or otherwise, that
conflicts with or adds to these conditions is not accepted.
No agent or representative of the Vendor has authority to vary these
conditions unless accepted in writing by a director of We Print
Lanyards, hereinafter referred to as “a Director”.
1. Payments and Price
(a) The Vendor reserves the right to vary the quoted
price for the goods by upward additions in accordance with market
conditions at the date of actual supply. The Purchaser shall pay such
additions in addition to the quoted price. Price lists do not
constitute an offer.
(b) All invoices are due for payment on the date
shown on the invoice. Payment is to be made in sterling unless
otherwise agreed in writing by a Director.
(c) All overdue accounts will be charged, on a daily
basis, commercial interest at 5% above the base rate of NatWest plc
obtaining at the time.
(d) The statutory right of withdrawal or cancellation
that applies to consumers who enter into distance-selling contracts,
allowing withdrawal from or cancellation of a contract within 14 days
of receiving their products without giving a reason, does not apply to
goods made to the consumer’s specifications or clearly personalised.
(e) Products ordered from the Vendor are customised
by the Customer. You therefore cannot exercise a right of withdrawal,
except in relation to the following non-customisable products offered
on our website:
- Card accessories
- Stock-produced lanyards and ribbon
When you are a consumer, you may exercise your right to withdraw from
an agreement for these unused products within 14 days of receiving
your order, without giving a reason.
If this period expires on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday, it is
extended until the next business day.
To exercise this right, please use our Contact and Support page and
provide your name, physical address, telephone number, email address,
We Print Lanyards order number and details of the products you wish to
return. We will then issue return instructions.
(f) The Vendor shall charge, and the Customer shall
pay, for all preliminary work carried out at the Customer’s request,
whether experimental or otherwise.
(g) Where the Vendor accepts early termination by the
Customer of any preliminary work, the Customer shall pay for any
preliminary work carried out before termination on a pro-rata basis.
(h) Goods are not supplied on a sale-or-return basis.
2. Availability of Goods
The Vendor will use its best endeavours to comply with any stated
despatch or delivery date. Any such date is an estimate only and is
not of the essence of the contract.
If the Vendor is unable to deliver because the goods are unavailable,
or because of any other cause beyond the Vendor’s control, the Vendor
may terminate the whole or any part of the contract by giving written
notice to the Purchaser.
2.1 Late Delivery
All despatch dates given by the Vendor are not of the essence. While
the Vendor will use its best endeavours to deliver the goods in
accordance with the Purchaser’s requirements, the Vendor will not be
liable for any consequence of late delivery, however caused.
3. Property and Risk
For as long as any amount remains owing from the Purchaser to the
Vendor, whether immediately due or not, ownership of the goods shall
remain with the Vendor.
Ownership will not pass to the Purchaser until the Vendor has received
payment in full.
If the Purchaser resells the goods before the Vendor has received all
amounts owed, the Purchaser shall account to the Vendor for the
proceeds of the sale and shall hold those proceeds on trust for the
Vendor until all amounts have been paid in full.
The Vendor shall have the right to trace all proceeds in accordance
with the principles of R v Hallett’s Estate (1880) 13 Ch D 696.
At any time after payment becomes due, and while amounts remain unpaid,
the Vendor shall have the right, at the Purchaser’s expense, to enter
the Purchaser’s premises and remove any goods that remain the property
of the Vendor.
4. Design Variation
4.1
While the Vendor makes every effort to ensure that goods correspond
with any proof, sample, specification or description provided, the
Vendor is not responsible for minor variations in specification,
colour or other design features.
No minor variation shall entitle the Purchaser to cancel the contract
or make a claim against the Vendor.
4.2
Due to the printable size of our products, the Customer understands
that small text, thin lines or other design elements may not print
clearly or may fill in during the printing process.
4.3
Due to the nature of the processes involved, we cannot guarantee that
commissioned work will match other Customer materials in colour,
saturation or texture.
4.4
The Vendor cannot be held responsible for:
- Spelling, punctuation or grammatical errors made by the Customer
- Inferior-quality or low-resolution uploaded images
-
Design errors introduced by the Customer during the product or
design creation process
5. Intellectual Property Rights
5.1 Ownership
The Vendor grants no right or licence to the Purchaser, whether by
implication, estoppel or otherwise, in relation to the products or any
intellectual property rights belonging to the Vendor.
The Vendor shall retain all ownership rights, title and interest in
its products, services and associated intellectual property rights,
subject only to rights and licences expressly granted in a licence
agreement.
5.2 Rights
The Vendor, and not the Purchaser, has the sole rights to all
copyright, patents, registrations and trademarks relating to the

5.3 Pursuit of Infringers
The Purchaser shall notify the Vendor of any infringement of the
Vendor’s intellectual property rights of which the Purchaser becomes
aware.

The Vendor shall decide, at its sole discretion, whether to pursue any
particular infringement.

confidentiality, trademark, registration, service-mark or copyright
markings or notices contained on products, badges, materials or
documentation received from the Vendor.

the agreement or with prior written consent

is a customer of the Vendor and uses the relevant product.
6.4 Marketing Use of Customer Materials

advertising, portfolio and promotional activities, online or in print.

colour correction or making other non-substantive adjustments
necessary for presentation.

Vendor written notice. The Vendor shall cease future use within 14
days but shall not be required to remove or retract materials
published before receiving the notice.
7. Claims

contract applies, the Purchaser must use the services of that third
party to resolve claims under clause 7(a).
(e) Where a manufacturer operates its own direct
product-support and returns procedure, the Purchaser must process the
claim directly through the manufacturer.
8. Copyright and Intellectual Property
(a) The Vendor shall not be required to print any
material that, in the Vendor’s opinion, is or may be illegal,
offensive, extreme, libellous or an infringement of a third party’s
legal or intellectual property rights.
The Vendor’s decision in this regard is final.

becomes aware that commissioned work may breach a third party’s
rights, the Vendor may stop printing immediately until the Purchaser

libellous material or misuse of confidential information.

rights in commissioned work that originates from the Vendor shall
belong to the Vendor.

Where a valid notification is made, you shall pay for the quantity

constitutes a separate contract.
A defect in one or more instalments shall not entitle you to terminate
the whole contract or cancel any subsequent instalment.

damage to products passes to you when they are delivered, placed in
your possession or placed in the possession of a carrier or transport
provider appointed by you, whichever occurs first.
9.5 Missing Deliveries
The Vendor will notify the Purchaser when goods are despatched.
The Purchaser must notify the Vendor within 10 working days of the
despatch notification if the goods have not been received.
Failure to notify the Vendor within this timeframe may reduce the
options available for making a claim.

when it becomes available.
10. Returned Goods

rectification unless the return has been authorised and a returns
reference number has been issued.

defect. Where a physical defect is confirmed, the Vendor will replace
the product without charge.

discretion.
