The confirmation by the Buyer of (i) a Quotation issued by the Company, (ii) the issue of an Order or (ii) the Sale of Product accepted by the Company, in any form whatsoever, shall entail the automatic application and acceptance of the present GCS.

In case of specific circumstances, the Parties may expressly agree on Particular Conditions of Sale (PCS) for an Order or for a set of them.

The PCS will be applied preferentially to the GCS and, in all matters not regulated in the PCS, the provisions of the GCS will apply.
2. QUOTATIONS AND ORDERS.
2.1. Once the Buyer has informed the Company of its interest in purchasing the Product, the Company will issue a Quotation which will not be binding, unless it is expressly stated that it is.
Any request for a Quotation or other documentation or samples sent to the Buyer shall not bind the Company until the Buyer’s acceptance of the Order has occurred.
The Quotation sent by the Company will specify, at least, the type of Product, the Quantity and the Price. If a delivery date is given, it should be considered as an estimated date. Said Quotation will be valid for fifteen (15) days.
2.2. The Buyer will send the Company the Order of the Products in writing (by email or through the platform provided for this purpose), accepting the conditions of the Quotation received. Once a Quotation has been carried out, the Buyer may not unilaterally cancel it, both totally or partially, unless it is expressly accepted by the Company.
23. The Company reserves the right to reject an Order, as well as to withdraw a Quotation, without assuming any expense or cost in favor of the Buyer.
2.4. If an Order confirmation is wrong, the Buyer must notify the Company within a maximum period of two (2) days. Otherwise, it shall be understood that the confirmation of the Order is correct and will be processed without further changes.
2.5.

2.6. The Buyer declares that all the information provided is correct, therefore, if there is any failure in the delivery of the Order as a result of the innacurate information provided, the Company will not be liable, and the Buyer must assume the expenses, additional costs and damage caused.

Unless otherwise agreed, payment shall be made no later than thirty (30) days from the issuance of the invoice through transfer to the bank account designated therein.

TheBuyer is obligated to pay all amounts detailed in the invoice and the Buyer shall not offset, withhold, or reduce any payment (except for any deduction or retention required by law and provided in the invoice itself).

4.4. In the event that the Buyer does not comply, in whole or in part, with the obligations assumed herein, as well as those detailed in the Order, or has been declared bankrupt or has entered into liquidation, or has had assets or rights seized and/or has received judicial or extrajudicial claims (if any event occurs, if a procedure is initiated, with respect to the Buyer in any jurisdiction to which it is subject that has an effect equivalent to the aforementioned facts), it will be obliged to pay immediately the outstanding invoices and claims payable to the Company, without the agreed due date being applicable in such cases.

5. QUALITY.
5.1. The quality of the Products shall be as established in the technical specification documents provided for in the Order, published on the website or otherwise available on the market (DataSheet).
5.2. In the event that the Products do not conform with the technical specifications, the Buyer must notify the Company in writing, within a maximum period of ten (10) days that he rejects them for not conforming to what was requested. Upon expiry of the aforesaid period, if no objection has been raised by the Buyer, the Products shall be deemed to have been accepted. This period will not apply to defects or damage that were visible at the time the Product was made available, since in this case, the defects must be revealed at the time of delivery. In any case, to accept the return of the Products, the Buyer must have stored them, at all times, under the conditions set out in the specifications thereof.
5.3. The Parties agree to establish a tolerance margin of 5%. Thus, if a percentage of less than 5% of the Products delivered does not comply with the technical specifications offered, it shall be understood that the entire Order has been correctly delivered and the Buyer will not have the right to claim for losses of less than such percentage.
In any case, in case of return of the Products for the reasons specified above, the Buyer shall bear all costs and expenses of the return.
6. QUANTITY.
6.1. The Company will deliver the quantity specified in the Order, unless the term «approximately» is used.
In the event that a quantity is specified with the term «approximately», this will mean that the Company will deliver to the Buyer the corresponding quantity and adjust the amount to be paid by the Buyer.
6.2. In the event that the delivered quantity of the Product differs (upwards or downwards) by less than 5% from the quantity committed in the Order, it shall be understood that the Order has been correctly delivered, notwithstanding that the Price will be adjusted to the quantity actually delivered.
7. PACKAGING.
7.1. The Company will deliver the Product properly palletized and protected. As far as possible, the packaging shall have an adequate uniformity in relation to the number of panels per package in terms of both size and thickness of contents, although packages may vary in height as they may contain fewer panels.

8.1. The Buyer shall, for the duration of the application of these GCS, comply with the branding guidelines established by the Company (in the form provided by the Buyer).
9. DELIVERY.
9.1. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, delivery shall be Ex Works by the Company, at the production facility or warehouse, as the case may be. However, it will be deemed as delivered at the time the Products are given into the possession of the (first) carrier or directly to the Buyer.
9.2. The Company fulfills its delivery obligation when it places the Products, in its own premises (factory, warehouse, etc.), at the disposal of the Buyer, or the carrier. From that moment on, the risk of loss or damage of the goods and the Product becomes the responsibility of the Buyer.
The Buyer is obliged to check at the time of delivery of the Product, if the Product or its packaging has any defect or any visible damage, in which case it must be reported immediately, otherwise it will be understood that it was delivered correctly. To the extent possible, the Buyer undertakes not to receive the defective product. Therefore, the term established in clause 5.2 will not apply in the event that the defect or damage was visible at the time the Product was made available.
When Products are stored at the Buyer’s request, the risk of loss or damage to such Products rests solely with Buyer.
9.3. Based on the foregoing, any deficiencies or damages of the delivered goods or Products, as well as in its packaging, which have been detected at the time of delivery, must be indicated by the Buyer, in writing, through the timely indication on the delivery note or delivery sheet or transport document or invoice attached to the Products. Otherwise, if said deficiencies or damages are not indicated in the aforementioned manner, no claims will be accepted. The records kept by the Company’s Administration Department are decisive in relation to complaints.
9.4. In the event that the delivery of the Products is rejected without good cause by the Buyer, all expenses and other associated costs will be borne by the Buyer, unless otherwise agreed in advance and in writing. In these cases, the Company reserves the right to claim additional damages incurred as a result of the unjustified non-acceptance of the Products, including, but not limited to the costs involved in storing the Product and the returning costs.
9.5. Products may be supplied in several deliveries, as long as they can be invoiced separately. In this case, the Buyer will be obliged to pay for the Products delivered in accordance with the third clause of the present GCS.
9.6. The delivery times established are all approximate, since the Company cannot guarantee the availability of the Products within the stipulated time period. However, the Company will make its best efforts to meet the expected delivery times and will keep the Buyer informed of any incidents that may arise in this regard. Consequently, the deadlines and dates established by the Company should never be considered as a deadline.
9.7. In the event of late delivery, the Company will not be obliged to pay any compensation or expenses to the Buyer. However, if the delay in the delivery is greater than that provided for in clause 9.6., the Buyer shall have the right to demand that the delivery be made within a reasonable period. And in the event that the delivery also exceeds the aforementioned reasonable period, the Buyer shall be entitled to withdraw from the agreement, except when the delay is attributable to a cause of force majeure or fortuitous event (in which case, clause 11 shall apply).
9.8. Furthermore, the Company is not responsible for any damage and/or loss caused by the delay in the delivery of the Product due to the fault of the supplier and/or carrier.
9.9. If the delivery cannot be made due to circumstances that can be attributed to the Buyer, the Company shall be entitled to charge the Buyer all expenses and costs arising from the delay in delivery or non-delivery. In the event that the delivery of the Product had been attempted a second time and it could not have been made for reasons attributable to the Buyer, the Company will have the right to withdraw from the Order without the Buyer having the right to claim any amount for it.
10. TRANSPORTATION AND RISK.
10.1. If the transportation is being managed by the Company, including the means of transport, packaging, insurance, etc., and no specific instructions are received from the Buyer, it shall be determined by the Company acting with care, and without the Company assuming any liability for the choice or for damage caused by a third party. Similarly, the specific instructions ordered by the Buyer in relation to transport, packaging and insurance will only apply if the Buyer can assume the possible costs, expenses and risks that may arise from them.
10.2. If the Parties agree that the transportation shall be carried out by the Buyer, the Buyer will be responsible for everything that could happen since the availability of the Product. Likewise, the transportation of the Products will be at the Buyer’s risk and expense, even if the carrier requires that the delivery notes, waybills, etc., contain the provision that all damages and losses related to the transportation are at the expense and risk of the sender, unless otherwise agreed in advance and in writing.
11. FORCE MAJEURE OR FORTUITOUS EVENT.
11.1. Neither Party shall be liable or responsible for any delays or failure to comply with its obligations under the Agreement as a result of an event of “force majeure” or “fortuitous event”.
Force Majeure or Fortuitous Event shall mean all events beyond the control of the Party which occur after entering into the present GCS and which were not reasonably foreseeable at the time of entering into the present and whose effects are not capable of being overcome without unreasonable expense and/or loss of time to the Party concerned, provided that there has been no negligence or fault of the affected Party. Such events shall include, without limitation, strikes, lockouts, labor disputes, acts of God, fire, power failure, natural disasters, epidemics, riots, wars and government actions.

The affected party will take all reasonable measures and actions to limit or minimize the consequences of such an event.
Either party will be entitled to terminate the Agreement by notice in writing to the other party if performance of the Agreement is suspended due to Force Majeure reasons for more than three (3) months. In such a case neither party is liable to compensate the other party for damage caused by non-compliance with the Agreement.
