this document detailing the rights and responsibilities of the Parties |
2.1. The Seller is under a legal duty to supply the Services using reasonable care and skill.
2.2. The Services will be performed insofar as reasonably practicable, at such time or times as the Seller shall decide. Any times, dates or periods given by the Seller for the provision of the Services are estimates only. The Seller will make reasonable efforts to comply with any such time estimates, and will perform the Services within a reasonable time. However, time is not of the essence in respect of the Seller’s performance of the Services.
2.3. The Seller is under a legal duty to supply Goods (including Digital Content) which are:
2.3.1. of satisfactory quality;
2.3.2. fit for purpose; and

3.1. By ordering Services from the Seller, the Buyer makes an offer to buy the Services for the price indicated by the Seller. There is no binding contract between the Parties at the time when the order is made.
3.2. The Seller will contact the Buyer by email to confirm the order. This Confirmation of Acceptance is the Seller’s acceptance of the order made by the Buyer. When the Confirmation of Acceptance is received there will be a binding contract between the Parties in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. The binding contract will only be for the Services that are included in the Confirmation of Acceptance.
4.1. The Buyer must make payments in accordance with any schedule agreed with the Seller. VAT will be charged at the rate prevailing when each payment falls due.
4.2. Where a fixed price has been given, including the cost of any Goods, the Seller’s prices may change between the date of the order and the date of the Seller’s Confirmation of Acceptance in accordance with clause 3.2 above. Reasons for a price change include, but are not limited to a change in the amount that the Seller is charged by his supplier(s) or a change in the VAT rate. What happens when the price changes depends on whether the new price is lower or higher than the price agreed:
4.2.1. if the new price is lower than the fixed price previously agreed, the Seller will charge the lower price and dispatch the Goods;
4.2.2. if the new price is higher than the fixed price previously agreed, the Seller will either cancel the order or contact the Buyer to confirm whether he would prefer to cancel the order or pay the higher price for the Goods.
4.3. Where an estimate of the total price has been provided by the Seller, the same is not a binding indication of how much the Seller will charge. The final price for the Services may be higher or lower than the estimate. Circumstances where the price may be different from an estimate include, but are not limited to:
4.3.1. the Services taking longer to complete than could have reasonably been anticipated;
4.3.2. the Buyer making any changes to the Services after the price is agreed; or
4.3.3. changes to the prices charged by any of the Seller’s suppliers.
4.4. Without prejudice to any other legal right or remedy:
