    HYDRAULICS ONLINE LTD – TERMS & CONDITIONS OF TRADING  

    INTRODUCTION

    Hydraulics Online is a responsible supplier, committed to sustainability in all its business activities and abiding by the highest ethical, social and environmental standards, always acting in accordance with the law. We are committed to deterring the use of our products and services for illegal purposes and work closely with UK Government Departments and other relevant third parties to ensure that we are fully compliant with latest directives and best practice.

    Our “Know Your Customers” policy is key to prevent and detect money laundering, terrorist financing, modern slavery, fraud and identity theft. KYC is an ongoing, risk-based process to gather relevant information about our customers to:

    • ensure we always know who we are dealing with;
    • gather information to assist in determining appropriate products and services to meet our customers’ needs;
    • aid the timely identification of customer activity that is inconsistent with established facts and information;
    • meet our legal obligations and ability to comply with trade sanctions and embargoes.

    When establishing a relationship with a customer we will confirm the identity of a person or the existence of an entity within acceptable timeframes using acceptable identification methods.

    When a product need is being established, enquiries may be made to determine whether it will be used by or for the benefit of a third party. Where required, particulars of the third party and their relationship with the customer will be obtained prior to establishing the relationship.

    We will take reasonable and appropriate measures to verify the key information provided by prospective customers to reliable independent, published sources. We will perform additional verification activities for relationships that represent a higher level of risk. We will refuse to enter into or continue relationships or conduct transactions with any person or entity that insists on anonymity or provides false, inconsistent or conflicting information where the inconsistency or conflict cannot be resolved after reasonable enquiry.

    9.2 Where the Purchaser refuses to accept delivery, goods shall nevertheless be at the Purchaser’s risk.

    10. PROPERTY TITLE

    ii) They shall be handed over to the Company on demand and the Company shall be entitled to re-take possession of them without prejudice to any of its other rights to against the Purchaser and the Company is hereby granted a licence to enter into the Purchaser’s premises where they are stored or reasonably thought to be stored for the purpose of repossessing the goods.

Proceeds from such re-sales received by the Purchaser shall be held by it on trust for the Company to the extent necessary to effect full payment to the Company and the Purchaser shall if required by the Company immediately upon such resale notify the Company with full details of such resale. Furthermore, the Company shall be entitled to notify the ultimate Purchaser that such resale price is to be paid direct to the Company.

    11. SPECIFICATION AND TOLERANCES
    11.1 The Purchaser has responsibility to satisfy itself that the goods are suitable in all respects for the Purchaser’s purpose and the Purchaser shall inform the Company in writing of any special circumstances or conditions affecting or liable to affect the use or performance of the goods.
    11.2 Unless the Purchaser specified in writing at the time of order any particular tolerances concerning dimensions, lengths or weight and supplied all necessary and sufficient detail in such specification the goods will be supplied in accordance with a Quality Description or normally commercially acceptable standards and will be of ordinary commercial quality. The Company is to be sole judge of the adequacy or otherwise of the details supplied by the Purchaser.
    11.3 If there are no quality stipulations in the Purchaser’s order the order shall be deemed to relate to and to require no more than ordinary commercial quality or the standard of quality which is customary for the type of goods ordered and the Company shall be entitled to deliver and charge for goods supplied within the usual production tolerances.
