An Order may relate to goods (such as promotional articles) and to (related) services of the Supplier, such as orders relating to the decoration of promotional articles and/or shipping and distribution. The goods and services offered by Swag Hut are collectively referred to in these Terms and Conditions as the ‘Products’.

The Customer agrees to be bound by these General Conditions. The Supplier hereby expressly rejects the applicability of any general terms and conditions of the Customer.

Any provision departing from these General Conditions may only be relied upon by the Customer if and insofar as it has been expressly accepted in writing by the Supplier.

These General Conditions shall also apply to future contracts between the Customer and the Supplier, unless they are explicitly excluded therein.

The Supplier reserves the right to modify these General Conditions. Any new General Conditions are binding upon the Customer as soon as the Customer is deemed to have received notice of the same. The current version of the Terms can always be found on Swag Hut’s website at www.SwagHut.com

2. Offers, orders, acceptance and contracts

The Supplier’s offers, as presented in the Supplier’s webshop (“SwagHut Store”)
e-mails, brochures or catalogues are non-binding and may be revoked by the Supplier. The Supplier shall not be bound by any Order until it confirms the Order in writing, as a result of which there is a binding contract (the ‘Contract’). For orders via the SwagHut Store, the Customer shall receive an (automated) confirmation of receipt prior to the Order Confirmation. This confirmation of receipt does not constitute an Order Confirmation and the Supplier is not yet bound by the Order.

Unless otherwise expressly stated, any offer or quotation is valid for a maximum of 14 calendar days. The Supplier may at it sole discretion, but is under no obligation to, accept an order after the expiration of the validation period where applicable.

Following the Order Confirmation, the Order is irrevocable and may not be cancelled, except under the conditions set out in Article 1 or with the agreement of the Supplier. The Supplier may make its agreement to cancel conditional upon the charging of internal or external costs already incurred, such as the labour time required for packing and returning the Order.

The Supplier is not obliged to accept an Order and does not guarantee there is a sufficient stock of Products.

Additional agreements, amendments and/or cancellations are only binding if and insofar as they have been approved in writing by the Supplier.

The Customer warrants that employees or representatives who place Orders on behalf of the Customer are authorised to represent the Customer.

The Supplier has its primary location in the Republic of Ireland but may accept / complete orders through other sales offices located in other jurisdictions. These sales offices are part of the Swag Hut Group, of which the Supplier forms the head office. Orders placed with a local sales office may be handled by Swag Hut’s local or central sales/customer service team, it being understood that, upon Order Confirmation, the Contract is always concluded with Supplier (Printsmart Consulting Limited) and not with the local sales office unless notified by the Supplier in writing.

The Customer warrants that the information it supplies (via the SwagHut Store or otherwise), including Product quantities, specifications (such as item numbers, etc.), address details and artwork for printed material, is correct and complete.

3. Decoration orders

When placing an order, the Customer may use the services offered by the Supplier for the decoration of Products from the Supplier's range (‘Decoration Orders’). Product decoration options are listed on the SwagHut or may be communicated by other means by the Supplier. Options, such as printing techniques and colour options, may vary from article to article, depending on, inter alia, product material and available space for printing. Prices and production times may vary depending on the selected product decoration options. Visuals and/or graphic material (such as logos) provided by the Customer for Product Decoration are referred to below as ‘Artwork’.

The Supplier may offer digital tools via the SwagHut Store that allows the Customer to upload Artwork for a visual impression of the printed item (‘e- proof’) based on the chosen printing technique. The position and colours of the uploaded Artwork can be determined and adjusted by the Customer via the digital tool. Artwork for the e-proof will be delivered in the format indicated by the Supplier. Upon completion of the order in the SwagHut Store, the Customer shall receive an e-proof (via e-mail) for approval. After approval of this e-proof, the Decoration Order shall be processed by the Supplier, with the proviso that there is no Contract until issue of the Order Confirmation. The Supplier will supply Decoration Orders in accordance with the e-proof, in accordance with section 3 of this article.

The e-proof gives a digital (two-dimensional) impression of the article printed with Artwork, which may not be 100% identical to the final print. The Supplier cannot guarantee that Artwork will be shown entirely to scale. In terms of positioning and size, a small deviation is permissible. The colours of the printing on the Products may also differ slightly from the colours in the e-proof. For printing techniques where colours are displayed in PMS, the Supplier considers a 1 pantone colour deviation permissible. For printing techniques based on CMYK, the rule is that the actual colour must correspond to the colour visible on a calibrated screen. The Customer must check the e-proof for all aspects (such as colour, placement, format and spelling) before it is approved.

The Customer may also choose to place the Order without an approved e-proof (‘no e-proof’). In this case, printing of the Decoration Order is done on the basis of the visualisation in the SwagHut presentation or other similar method without first sending an e-proof to the Customer for approval. Small deviations in positioning, size and colour between the Artwork and the printing on the Products cannot be excluded and are at the risk of the Customer. In that case, the Customer also assumes the risk that details in the Artwork on the Products are illegible and/or out of focus. The Supplier is under no obligation to check this in advance.

The Supplier is in not responsible for the content, accuracy or design of Artwork supplied by the Customer, such as spelling, colours, graphic details or authorisations required from third parties for use of the Artwork. The Customer is solely liable for this. Artwork is not reviewed or checked by the Supplier, except for technical aspects. The Customer guarantees to the Supplier that the Artwork may be lawfully used for printing the selected Products, without infringing any third-party rights or breaching any legal requirement. It is not permitted to use Artwork with content that could be considered discriminatory, pornographic, violent or otherwise offensive, whose content could incite hatred or be considered as insulting, defamatory or slanderous, or promotes illegal behaviour.

In consultation with the Supplier, the Customer may request one or more samples and/or illustrations of the decorated article or product material, prior to placing the order. The costs of this will be charged by the Supplier, irrespective of whether or not the Customer subsequently places an order, unless other terms have been agreed. The Supplier shall provide an indication of these costs and of the expected delivery time of the samples in advance.

4. Prices

The Supplier's prices in offers (on the SwagHut Store, in brochures, catalogues, quotations, presentations etc.) are non-binding and subject to change until there is an Order Confirmation leading to a Contract. In the event of an unforeseen increase in cost price factors, such as the cost of materials, raw materials, customs duties or transport costs, or due to currency fluctuations, the Supplier shall still be entitled to change the price or cancel the Order. The Customer shall be deemed to have agreed to a price change, unless it cancels the Order within one working day after notification of the price change, in which case no charge shall be made for that cancellation. The Supplier shall not be liable for any compensation in the event of cancellation by either the Supplier or the Customer on the basis of this provision.

Prices are inclusive of standard packaging and exclusive of turnover tax, import duties, packaging levies and other government taxes, levies or duties, unless explicitly stated otherwise. Prices are also exclusive of freight costs unless free delivery is explicitly mentioned in the offer. Freight costs depend on the quantity of the order and the place of delivery. Applicable rates shall be determined by the Supplier at time of shipping and communicated to the Customer upon request.

Any discounts shall be valid only once and shall in no way bind the Supplier in the event of a subsequent order or contract.

The quantity of Products ordered may influence the unit price (in the case of quantity discounts) or the freight charges. The Supplier reserves the right to apply minimum order quantities (MOQ) for certain Products or product groups.

The Supplier may, at any time, unilaterally decide to modify or extend its range, including discontinuing the use of certain Products or brands, without this giving rise to any liability towards the Customer. The Supplier is not obliged to supply Products that thereby cease to be included in its range.

5. Place of supply and Value Added Tax

Unless otherwise notified, goods and services supplied by the Supplier will be supplied within / from the Republic of Ireland.

The Supplier is required to charge Value Added Tax (“VAT”) on its supply of both products and services in accordance with relevant Irish and EU laws and regulations in force at the time the supply.

All prices quoted on the Swag Hut Store, in catalogues or similar materials, formal quotations and presentations, relayed verbally or by email or are displayed or elsewhere are exclusive of VAT unless otherwise expressly stated.

By default, the Supplier will apply Irish VAT at standard rate to all sales unless and until sufficient evidence, as determined at the Suppliers sole discretion, is provided confirming the Customer and/ or the supply qualifies for tax exemption or a variation of the applicable VAT rate.

In the case of intercommunity supplies, the Customer is obliged to provide a valid EU VAT number in the destination country before a sale can be completed at a zero rate of VAT.

The Supplier expressly states that it cannot and does not provide tax advise and assumes no responsibility for its Customers tax matter. The Customer agrees to indemnify the Supplier for any damages arising because of acceptance of the Customers tax exemption certificate.

The Customer acknowledges that they are liable for all and any taxes, duties and charges arising in the country of arrival where they request goods are shipped outside of Ireland on the Customer behalf.

The SwagHut Store is a service made available by the Supplier for ordering Products online without any obligation. The Supplier does not guarantee that information on the SwagHut Store is always accurate, complete and up to date, that the SwagHut Store is always accessible (online), or that the SwagHut Store always operates free of viruses or malfunctions. This also applies to any and all tools offered in the SwagHut Store, or the SwagHut.com website.

The Supplier takes appropriate technical and organisational measures to secure the SwagHut Store in order to guarantee the confidentiality and integrity of Customer data and to prevent access or misuse by unauthorised third parties. The Supplier does not guarantee that misuse or unauthorised access will be prevented at all times.

The Customer must keep the Login Data confidential and only provide it to personnel who are authorised to place orders on behalf of the Customer. The Customer shall document which members of staff have access to the Login Data. The Customer guarantees that unauthorised parties will not be granted access to the Login Data. The Customer must log off after each session.

Misuse of the Login Data is at the Customer's risk, unless the Login Data has come into the hands of a third party through any act or omission by the Supplier. In the event of (suspected) misuse of Login Data, the Customer shall notify the Supplier as soon as possible. In this event, the Supplier shall be entitled to block access to the SwagHut Store (temporarily) or to take other appropriate measures.

The Supplier's guidelines or instructions for using the SwagHut Store shall always be followed by the Customer.

7. Delivery time and delivery

Delivery shall take place in accordance with the terms of delivery for transport communicated by the local sales office (‘Incoterms’) and/or in accordance with the Incoterms specified in the Order Confirmation. Freight costs may be passed on by the Supplier in accordance with Article 2.

The Supplier and the Customer may agree that delivery shall be made to a third-party address indicated by the Customer, such as an end customer, who is not a party to the Contract (referred to below as the ‘Recipient’). The Customer guarantees that the Recipient shall comply with all obligations incumbent on it with regard to the acceptance, inspection and storage of the goods delivered.

The supply of certain Products may be subject to restrictions pursuant to agreements between SwagHut and its supplier(s), such as restrictions related to the (geographical) sales market or guidelines or restrictions related to marketing and resale to certain (end) customers. In that case, the ordering of these Products may be made conditional on the Customer's acceptance of these restrictions, which shall in that case apply in addition to these General Conditions. The Supplier may also refuse to deliver Products to certain countries or territories due to restrictions related to national laws or regulations.

Delivery dates indicated by or agreed with the Supplier are indicative only and not firm deadlines, unless explicitly agreed otherwise. The Supplier shall only be in default after the Customer has sent the Supplier a written notice of default giving the Supplier a reasonable time for compliance of at least 21 days, and delivery has still not taken place within this further period of time.

The delivery period shall start once the Supplier has issued the Order Confirmation and, in the opinion of the Supplier, all formalities for the execution of the Order have been fulfilled and the Supplier has received all information required to execute the Order. If an advance payment or security for payment has been stipulated, the delivery period shall not commence until this has been received and the said conditions have been fulfilled.

Exceeding a delivery period shall not entitle the Customer to compensation, rescission, suspension of any payment obligation or to any other claim due to non-fulfilment of the Contract, except in the following cases. If a firm delivery date has been expressly agreed and it is exceeded, or if the Supplier is in default of delivery after the expiry of the reasonable period set by the Customer in accordance with Article 4, the Customer shall be entitled exclusively to rescind the Contract without any claim to damages or any other claim for non-performance of the Contract. In this case, the purchase price already received shall be refunded by the Supplier. Where delivery is delayed in accordance with article 12.13 and/or 12.14 this will not constitute the Supplier being in default.

Delivery periods shall be extended by the time the performance of the Contract is delayed due to force majeure or if changes and/or additions to the Order are agreed upon at the request of the Customer. The Supplier shall in such case communicate a new delivery date as soon as possible.

The Customer must take delivery of the physical Products immediately they are offered for delivery by or on behalf of the Supplier, or, where applicable, to ensure that the Recipient takes delivery of them immediately. Products shall be deemed delivered as soon as they are offered for delivery at the agreed place of delivery, and from that moment the risk of damage and loss of the Products shall pass to the Customer, even if delivery of the Products is accepted at that time. If the Products are not accepted on the date communicated to the Customer, they shall be stored at the Customer's expense and risk and a new delivery date shall be arranged at the Customer's expense. If delivery is again unsuccessful and the Customer does not collect the Products from the storage site within two months, the Supplier shall be entitled, upon notification to the Customer, to sell the Products to a third party or, if this is not possible (as in the case of Decoration orders), to destroy the Products and recover any loss from the Customer, without prejudice to the Supplier's other rights.

Where the customer avails of the “Inventory Option” (see Article 10), the Customer is deemed to take delivery of the products once the Customer is notified that goods are available to the dispatched and stored in the Suppliers warehouse and from that moment the risk of damage and loss of the Products shall pass to the Customer.

Once the risk of damage and loss of the products passes to the Customers, it is the responsibility of the Customer to ensure to obtain independent cover for goods stored at the Suppliers warehouse. In the absence of such insurance obtained by the Customer, the Supplier waives all liability, for whatever amount and for whatever type of damage (direct or indirect), for damage caused by fire, water or theft. The Supplier has in place industry standard Alarm system to reduce the risk of such incidents.

If it has been agreed with the Supplier that a penalty shall be payable if the delivery time is exceeded, such penalty shall only be payable if the delay is attributable to the Supplier. The penalty owed shall never exceed the amount of the loss actually suffered by the Customer as a result of the period being exceeded and shall be set off against that loss.

The Supplier has the right to make part deliveries. For the application of these General Conditions, each part delivery shall be regarded as an independent delivery.

The Supplier has the right to supply Products other than those agreed upon, if these comply with the agreed specifications and are of comparable quality. The Supplier shall inform the Customer in advance.

Minor deviations in the Products delivered, customary in the trade, for example in colour, size or finish, that do not affect the quality, external appearance, use or marketability of the Products, are acceptable and do not give the Customer the right to refuse delivery.

If delivery is expedited or postponed at the Customer's request, the Customer must reimburse any additional costs resulting therefrom (such as transport costs in connection with an urgent shipment or storage costs in the event of postponement).

The Supplier is not obliged to deliver to places that are difficult to pass through, such as unpaved roads. In that case, in consultation with the Customer, delivery will be made to a nearest place of delivery that is passable.

8.Distribution

The customer must ensure that the actual delivery of the products ordered by him can take place on time.

Transport costs shall be borne by the customer, unless the parties have agreed otherwise in this regard. The customer is also responsible for all import duties, taxes and charges of any form arising on the shipment. Where these charges can not be ascertained at the time of shipping, these will be subsequently invoiced to the Customer once they have been determined.

The Supplier shall at all times be entitled to demand full or partial payment in advance and/ or the purchase of credits as set out in Article 13 to cover the actual or estimated distribution costs, import duties and taxes and other similar charges prior to dispatch of inventory

The Customer agrees to pay all charges incurred by them or on their behalf through the Swag Hut Store, at the prices in effect when such charges are incurred, including all shipping, handling charges and import duties, taxes and related charges and fees where applicable.

In such scenarios, the Supplier is discharging fees and charges properly due by the Customer and/or its agent or recipient. The Supplier is entitled to reimbursement of all such charges to the extent that they have not already been discharged by the Customer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Customer is not entitled to encumber the Products sold subject to a retention of title.

The Supplier shall be entitled to recover Products delivered to the Customer and remaining the property of the Supplier, if the Customer fails to fulfil its obligations or if the Supplier has reason to believe that the Customer will fail to comply with its obligations. The Customer must facilitate this recovery of possession and, to this end, inform the Supplier on demand of the location of the Products (even if this is with a third party) and, if necessary, ensure access to this location. The Customer must reimburse the Supplier for the costs incurred in recovering the Products. When Products are recovered, credit shall be given on the basis of the value of the Products in their condition on their return, at the discretion of the Supplier.

The Customer must keep Products that are subject to a retention of title safely, carefully and separately from other items, and mark them as the property of the Supplier.

if no complaint is made in time in accordance with articles 1 through 15.3;
in respect of defects discovered more than 3 months after the date of delivery;
if the delivered Products have been damaged by external causes, such as (rain) water, heating, falling damage, fire, etc.

For goods or parts of goods acquired by the Supplier from third parties, the warranty obligations of the Supplier towards the Customer shall in no event be greater or of longer duration than the warranty obligations of said third parties towards the Supplier. The Supplier shall be discharged from any warranty obligation when, if possible, it assigns its claim against such third party to the Customer, which assignment is hereby accepted by the Customer in advance.

Products in respect of which a complaint has been made shall be kept by the Customer for inspection by the Supplier and shall be returned on demand by the Supplier. Costs of return shall be borne by the Supplier in case of a justified complaint. Should the Customer fail to comply such that this restricts the Supplier in its ability to determine the merits of the complaint and claim, there shall be no right of replacement or refund.

16 Liability and indemnity

The Supplier's liability in connection with any defects in the Products supplied by it shall be limited to the warranty obligations as described in Article 6. All further liability for loss suffered by the Customer in connection with the Contract and/or the delivery of the Products is excluded, except in the case of intent or gross negligence.

Any liability of the Supplier to the Customer shall be limited to either i) the net invoice value of the goods delivered to the Customer by the Supplier in the three months preceding the event giving rise to the loss (subject to deduction of any amounts credited), or, if the loss is covered by insurance under which the Supplier is deemed to be the insured, (ii) the amount actually paid out by the insurer in this regard (if higher than the amount referred to in (i)), with the proviso that any liability of the Supplier to the Customer under the terms of the Contract shall be limited to a maximum amount of EUR 5,000.

The Supplier's liability for commercial, consequential or indirect loss (including loss of turnover, profit or goodwill, business or customers) is always excluded, unless the loss is the result of wilful intent or deliberate recklessness on the part of the Supplier.

The Supplier's limitations of liability under this provision shall not apply in the event of personal injury or death.

In all cases where a penalty is payable by the Supplier, any obligation to pay compensation shall be limited to the amount of the penalty, without prejudice to Article 2.

Any claim by the Customer against the Supplier, other than those acknowledged by the Supplier, shall in any event expire 12 months after the Customer becomes aware of the existence of the claim, unless the Customer has informed the Supplier of the existence of the claim within that period by means of a detailed, substantiated written claim, without prejudice to other statutory or contractual defences of the Supplier.

If either party becomes aware of a defect in the delivered Products it shall immediately inform the other party thereof, including the type of defect and the Products that are defective. The Customer must provide all necessary cooperation should the Supplier decide to carry out a product recall due to defects or risks related to product safety or in the event of an announced or imminent enforcement action by market regulators, or due to the Supplier's well-founded fear that one of these circumstances may arise. In such a case, the Supplier shall credit the purchase price of the Products and reimburse the costs of return shipment. The Customer shall treat as confidential all information received about measures that may or actually must be taken, except insofar as it is legally obliged to disclose such information. Communications by the Customer to its own customers or end-users regarding product recalls and/or (possibly) defective and/or unsafe Products shall be made in close consultation with and after approval by the Supplier.

Neither the Supplier nor the Customer may revoke this clause. The required acceptance of this clause by employees of the Supplier, by persons engaged by the Supplier in the performance of the Contract or by Supplier’s group companies shall be deemed to have been accepted when this clause has been made known to these parties.

The Customer shall indemnify the Supplier, its employees and persons engaged in the performance of the Contract against any third-party claim in connection with the performance of the Contract by the Supplier, insofar as such claims are more than or different from those to which the Customer is entitled against the Supplier by virtue of the Contract.
