Terms & Conditions

1. Status of Terms

1.1 These terms constitute a legal document ("the Agreement") which sets out the rights and obligations of you as a purchaser ("you") and those of Opticron ("Opticron", "we" or "us") in relation to the services and products offered by us through this site. By registering for Opticron services, you agree to the terms of this Agreement and you re-affirm that agreement every time you use any of our services.

1.2 You agree to:

1.2.1 provide true, accurate, current and complete information about you as prompted by our registration form (such information being the "Registration Data"); and

1.2.2 maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or Opticron has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, Opticron has the right to suspend or terminate your account, cease supply and refuse you any and all current or future use of the Opticron site (or any portion of it).

2. Applicable Law and Language

UK law shall govern this Agreement. You and we each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the UK courts in relation to disputes arising out of this Agreement.

In the event of conflict or inconsistency between the terms of the English language version of this Agreement and any translation provided by us, the English language version shall prevail.

3. Placing an order

3.1 Notice will be given before you submit an order which contains important information such as a description, price (including relevant taxes) and delivery charges of the goods or services ordered. We recommend that you print a hard copy or save a copy of the notice for your own records. You will also be sent an email confirmation of your order.

3.2 We accept Visa and Mastercard.

3.3 Goods supplied to you by Opticron will correspond with their prices and description (errors and omissions excluded). If this is not the case, you have the right to reject the goods within a reasonable time period for a full refund.

3.4 In the event that an incorrect price is shown on our website, we reserve the right to decline to fulfil the order at that price. You will be notified of this, be informed of the correct price and given the choice to proceed with the order or to cancel it.
