These terms and conditions and the website Order Confirmation form comprise the agreement pursuant to which Verdantix Ltd (“Verdantix”) provides the Product (defined below) to you (“Agreement”) when other terms and conditions have not been agreed in writing between you and us.

"We", "us" or “our” refers to Verdantix. "You" or "your" refers to the person who (or on whose behalf) an Order is placed and includes your legal successors and permitted assigns.

Orders

Order Confirmations placed by you (“Orders”) for any of our reports (“Products”) shall only be binding when accepted by us. You shall not cancel or amend an Order unless we have given our prior written consent. We shall assume that any person who places an Order on your behalf can bind you legally.

Ownership

The legal and beneficial interest in all copyrights, patents, utility models, trade marks, service marks, design rights (whether registered or unregistered), database rights, proprietary information rights and all other proprietary rights as may exist anywhere in the world together with applications associated with any such rights (“Intellectual Property Rights”) relating to the Product belong to us or our licensors, as the case may be, at all times. You obtain no Intellectual Property Rights in the Products pursuant to or arising out of this Agreement.

Charges and Payment Terms

Products bought online must be paid for in advance. Due to the nature of our Products, Verdantix does not offer refunds under any circumstances.  

Warranties

We shall use reasonable effort to ensure the Product is provided to you in accordance with any specifications set out in the Order and accepted by us. We do not warrant that the Product will meet your requirements or that it will be complete, error free or delivered without interruption. Except as expressly set out in this Agreement, all express or implied representations, warranties, conditions and undertakings are excluded to the maximum extent permissible by law. You assume sole responsibility for the selection, suitability and use of the Product and acknowledge that except as stated above we do not provide any additional warranties or guarantees relating to the Product.

Intellectual Property Rights and Indemnities

You shall fully indemnify us in respect of any infringement of any Intellectual Property Rights (“IPR”) arising as a result of your use of the Product in breach of the Agreement. You shall allow us (or our licensors) to control any proceedings arising as a result of any infringement, threatened infringement or claim relating to the IPR. You shall make no admission as to liability nor agree any settlement or compromise of any action. You shall, at our request and cost, offer such assistance as we may reasonably request in relation to any proceedings relating to our IPR. Any recovery obtained from such proceedings shall accrue solely for our benefit. If any infringement, threatened infringement or claim occurs in relation to any IPR, or if we consider that such a claim is likely to occur, we may in our absolute discretion:

  1. procure the right for you to use the Product free of the infringement claim; or
  2. replace or modify the Product to make it non-infringing; or
  3. terminate that part of the Product relating to the infringement (or potential infringement) and return any Charges paid by you in respect to that part of the Product in full and final settlement of any claims; or
  4. if none of these options is reasonably practicable, terminate the Agreement and return any Charges paid by you for the affected Product in full and final settlement.

Limitation of liability

We shall not be liable to you for any indirect or consequential loss, including loss of actual or anticipated profits, revenue, goodwill, anticipated savings or data, whether arising from negligence, breach of contract or otherwise. Our liability in contract, tort or otherwise arising out of or in connection with the Agreement shall in respect of any one or more incidents not exceed the total Charges received by us from you for the Product in the 12 months preceding the date the incident occurs.

Confidentiality

Consequent to placing an Order, Verdantix reserves the right to disclose the existence of the Agreement and that your organization is a Client of Verdantix. Notwithstanding this right of disclosure Verdantix shall not disclose information regarding the terms of the Agreement ("Information"). This obligation shall not apply to Information:

  1. which the receiving party can prove was in its possession at the date it was received or obtained; or
  2. which the receiving party obtains from another person with good legal title thereto; or
  3. which comes into the public domain otherwise than through the default or negligence of the receiving party; or
  4. which is independently developed by or for the receiving party.

Notices

Any notice, invoice or other document shall be duly given if sent by post or facsimile to the other party’s Company Secretary at its registered office or such other address as agreed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notices in respect of termination or breach shall be sent by recorded delivery to the Company Secretary.

Force Majeure

We shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform any obligation under this Agreement insofar as the performance of such obligation is prevented by an event beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to, earthquake, fire, flood or any other natural disaster, labour dispute, riot, revolution, terrorism, acts of restraint of government or regulatory authorities, failure of computer equipment and failure or delay of sources from which data is obtained.

Further Provisions

The Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the parties relating to the Product and supersedes all previous agreements and understandings whether oral or written relating to the Product. In the event of any inconsistency between these terms and conditions and the Order, the Order shall prevail. The Agreement may only be varied in writing signed by an authorised representative of each party. Failure at any time to enforce any of these terms and conditions or to require performance by the other party of any such term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of such provision or affect the right of either party to enforce the same. If any provision is held to be invalid or unenforceable by any tribunal of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall not be affected and shall be carried out as closely as possible according to the original intent. The Agreement does not confer any rights to or on any third party. The Agreement shall be governed by English law. The parties irrevocably agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of England and Wales.
