Terms for Purchases
1. Effective Date & Use. Purchase shall be
effective as of the date accepted by the Customer as evidenced
by selecting "Accept" during the on-line ordering process
for these Terms for Purchases ("Terms"), or by signing
a written Purchase Order and submitting by fax or mail. The Services
will automatically renew for successive terms of equal length
to the original term unless either party provides the other with
written notice of its intention not to renew at least fifteen
(15) days prior to the expiration of the Purchase term. All renewals
will be effective the first day of the month following renewal.
You understand and agree that your use of and access to the Internet
related services and the network and host computers ("Services")
that we, our affiliates and/or subcontractors operate, are conditioned
upon your full compliance with the Terms found on our website
at http://www.webkeysystems.com/terms.html. We may modify the
Terms as well as the Services without notice. Your continued use
of the Services after we post the modified Terms indicates your
acceptance of the modifications. Therefore, you are encouraged
to review the Terms on a regular basis.
2. Price and Payment Terms. Customer shall pay
the specified costs and charges. WEBKEY may charge for some Services
in advance and for other Services in arrears. Customer may also
receive separate invoice(s) from third parties acting as WEBKEY's
billing and collection agent. All Product orders are to be prepaid
unless otherwise approved by WEBKEY. At WEBKEY's discretion and
subject to credit approval, WEBKEY may invoice Customer and Customer
shall pay all invoices according to the agreed upon terms. Unpaid
invoices will be subject to the higher of a monthly service charge
of 1.5% of the outstanding balance, or the maximum legally allowable
interest rate. Customer authorizes WEBKEY to charge the Customer's
credit card that is on file, at the start of a new Services term
as payment for all fees and charges as they are invoiced or as
otherwise provided for. Services may be discontinued or Services
prices may be changed by providing customer notice via email or
postal mail of the new prices or discontinuing of Services at
least thirty (30) days prior to (a) the expiration of the Customer's
current term for the Services, or (b) if there is no set term
for the Services, then upon at least thirty (30) days notice via
email or postal mail.
WEBKEY shall pay a referral fee to Customers who refer new clients
to WEBKEY. If the referred client purchases an Oracode 4400 at
the single lock sales price, WEBKEY shall pay a $25 referral fee
to the Customer. Reduced lock sale prices for quantity purchases
shall earn a reduced referral fee, to be established by WEBKEY
at the time of sale.
3. Cancellation. For accounts with a term longer than one month,
Customer may cancel Services prior to the expiration of the term upon fifteen
(15) days written notice. Services and invoicing shall cease at the end of the
next full month following notice of cancellation. Upon cancellation Customer shall
pay WEBKEY a cancellation fee which shall be calculated according to the following
formula: fifty (50) percent of the Purchase commitment which is determined by
multiplying the Monthly Services Charge by the number of months in the Purchase
term reduced by amounts previously invoiced and paid.
4. Representation; Warranties and Acknowledgements. Each of
WEBKEY and Customer represents and warrants to the other that the entrance into
and performance of this Purchase shall not violate any applicable law or regulation
or any agreement to which it is a party. THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THIS
AGREEMENT ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (EITHER
IN FACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW), INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,
TITLE, OPERATION, NON-INFRINGEMENT, SECURITY AND ACCURACY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE (ALL OF WHICH ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED) AND ALL WARRANTIES ARISING FROM
COURSE OF DEALING, CUSTOM OR USAGE IN TRADE. YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES AND NETWORK
IS SOLELY AT YOUR OWN RISK. THE SERVICES AND NETWORK ARE PROVIDED "AS IS"
AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITH ALL FAULTS. WEBKEY MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR
WARRANTY TO THE CUSTOMER THAT THE SERVICES ARE ERROR FREE, SECURE, OR THAT SERVICES
WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED.
5. Services Termination and Suspension. WEBKEY may terminate
this Purchase and the provision of Services immediately if any portion of an invoice
remains unpaid for more than fifteen (15) days past the due date or immediately
if the Customer violates the Terms. Upon termination of this Purchase, all amounts
due for Services provided up to the effective date of the termination shall become
immediately due and payable. Additionally, if we reasonably anticipate a violation
of the Terms, we reserve the right, at our option, to suspend or terminate use
of and access to the Services and Network without notice. The key contributing
factors affecting our actions taken on Terms violations include, but are not limited
to, protection of our customers and our resources, provision of quality service
to our customers, compliance with applicable law, and the protection of our reputation.
Customer may suspend use of the Services after the agreed Term, in which case
their access to the Services shall be terminated. If the Services are subsequently
reinstated, WEBKEY may, at is option, assess Customer a Services Reinstatement
Fee of $30.00.
6. Services Performance Warranty. WEBKEY warrants that it will
perform the Services in a manner consistent with industry standards reasonably
applicable to the performance thereof.
7. Product Warranty. The products sold by WEBKEY, including
the finish, mechanical components, keypads, and other components, are provided
with the manufacturer's warranty only. For the KABA Oracode 4400, the warranty
is two years on lock and finish. Finish warranty requires periodic wiping down
with a cloth and appropriate cleaner, plus an annual polishing with Turtle Wax.
We recommend that the property owner have the cleaning service simply wipe down
the lock as part of their post-rental cleanup routine. For battery-operated products,
exposure to extreme cold will reduce the operational performance or prevent operation.
This is typical of all batteries and is not a malfunction of the product. Information
on warranties is either included with the products or may be obtained from WEBKEY
upon request. Warranties exclude products that have been damaged by installation
or modified with non-WEBKEY components. It also excludes incidental or consequential
damages. (Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental damages,
so this exclusion may not apply to you.) To register a warranty claim or request
troubleshooting assistance, please follow the instructions included with the product
or if the warranty instructions have been lost, contact WEBKEY at 1-678-318-3400.
The manufacturer will repair or replace the product or a component thereof at
its discretion. Customer will be responsible for the removal of the old product
or component, prepaid freight for the return of the product, and reinstallation
of the new product or component. This warranty provides the Customer with specific
legal rights and Customer may also have other rights, which vary from state to
state.
8. Taxes. WEBKEY reserves the right to collect from Customer in arrears - taxes,
fees or other charges of any nature whatsoever, now or hereafter imposed or assessed,
by any federal, state, county or local government authority upon or with respect
to the Products and Services provided.
9. Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT SHALL WEBKEY OR ITS
SHAREHOLDERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, PARTNERS, SUPPLIERS OR CONTRACTORS
(the "WEBKEY PARTIES") BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES, THEFT, INJURY, LOSS OF
LIFE, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF CUSTOMER DATA, OR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL,
SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING, WITHOUT

POLICY, OR THE USE OR INABILITY OF CUSTOMER TO USE THE PRODUCTS, SERVICES AND

TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE TOTAL FEES PAID BY CUSTOMER AND RECEIVED
BY WEBKEY FOR THE TWO MOST RECENTLY CONCLUDED MONTHLY BILLING PERIODS. THIS LIMITATION
APPLIES TO ALL CAUSES OF ACTION IN THE AGGREGATE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION,
TO BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, MISREPRESENTATIONS
AND OTHER TORTS.
