Please note that the Customer in this context is not a consumer. 

These Terms automatically become an integral part of any Contract, unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing between the parties.

2. Application to Specific Contracts

Any specific provisions outlined in an individual Contract shall take precedence over these Terms and apply to the particular business scenarios between the Contractor and the Customer. In the event that a Contract has a general nature and references these Terms to establish conditions or certain contractual limitations for partial contracts formed under it, both the Contractor and the Customer shall acknowledge these Terms as an inseparable component of each partial contract derived from the general Contract. In the event of any ambiguity or conflict in the Contract these Terms shall prevail.

II.

OFFER, PRICING, AND CONTRACT ACCEPTANCE TERMS

1. Pricing Information and Contract Proposal

The prices listed in the Contractor’s catalogues, promotional materials, and any oral or online communications regarding Goods are for informational purposes only and are not binding. They do not constitute a formal proposal for entering into a purchase contract.

2. Price Modification and Data Accuracy

The Contractor reserves the right to modify the Goods’ offerings and their prices without prior written notice. The Contractor shall not be held responsible for any inaccuracies in the catalogue, internet listings, press releases, or promotional materials.

3. Contractual Pricing

Prices specified in offers presented by the Contractor are considered as contractual prices. These prices are valid for 30 working days from the date of issuance, unless otherwise stated in the offer. Offers are regarded as proposals for contract initiation only if they explicitly state so and meet the conditions outlined in Art. II. (5) and subsequent sections of these Terms.

4. Price Components

The price of Goods is subject to the legally mandated Value Added Tax (VAT). Costs related to packing, transportation or insurance are not included unless specified otherwise. In the absence of a specific transportation price within the Contract, it is assumed that no such agreement has been made. Transportation fees are assessed independently based on the postal or transport service tariffs, unless otherwise specified.

5. Contract Conclusion Methods

A contract may be formed under the following conditions:

A. Customer’s Order and Contractor’s Acceptance

a) The Customer may place an order for Goods through one of the following means:

The Contractor’s lack of action does not constitute acceptance of the Order, and likewise, the Customer’s inaction does not imply acceptance of the Offer. If the Contractor accepts the Order with additional terms and changes, the Customer must express their disapproval of these changes within 14 days of receiving the Contractor’s proposed changes via email to info@silixcon.com or sales@silixcon.com. Failure to do so will result in the changes being considered approved, and the Contract will be deemed concluded, especially if an invoice is included and not returned. Similarly, if the Customer accepts the Offer with additional terms and changes, the Contractor must provide written approval of these changes within 14 days of receiving the Customer’s proposed changes. Failure to do so will mean the changes are not approved, and the Contract remains unaltered. Any reservations expressed by the Customer or the Contractor regarding changes to the Order or Offer serve as a basis for further negotiations regarding the Contract’s terms.

8. Order and Offer Changes

Prior to the Contractor confirming the Customer’s Order or the Customer accepting the Offer, the Customer may request in writing changes to or the cancellation of the Order or Offer, sent to info@silixcon.com or sales@silixcon.com.

The issuance of the tax document signifies acceptance of the Order in its entirety. An Order or Offer that has already been confirmed by the Contractor or Customer can only be canceled through mutual agreement of the contracting parties.

9. Changes to the Contract

The Contractor considers suggestions for changes, addendums, or deviations from the accepted Order or Offer by the Customer as an invitation to further negotiate the Contract’s terms. The Contractor is not obligated to finalize the Contract based on the Customer’s proposed changes. Changes to the concluded Contract, including the agreed-upon contract price, can only be made through mutual agreement or due to legal requirements.

The parties will agree on a suitable testing period, where the Customer is responsible for the initial proposal of testing procedure.

b) If the Customer collects the Goods at the Contractor’s registered office or operating premises, delivery is considered complete upon the Customer’s receipt of the Goods.

3. Verification of Goods During Transport

In the case of transported Goods, the Customer must verify whether the information on the transport documentation matches the details in the Order or Offer before confirming receipt. If the information on the transport documentation is inconsistent with the terms of the Contract, if the original packaging is damaged, or if the Goods are otherwise compromised, the Customer must note these discrepancies on the transport documentation and, if necessary, create a damage report in cooperation with the hauler. The Customer must promptly inform the Contractor of such discrepancies in writing.

4. Confirmation of Receipt

When a natural person, acting as the Customer, receives the Goods from the hauler, they confirm receipt by signing the delivery note. This confirmation includes their first name, last name, identity card number (or another identification document), or other identifying information.

Such circumstances will not be considered the Contractor’s fault, even if the Contractor is already behind schedule.

9. Suspension of Deliveries

If the Customer has unpaid monetary or non-monetary debts to the Contractor, including sums owed for earlier confirmed Orders or Offers, the Contractor has the right to suspend further deliveries until the Customer settles all outstanding debts. During this suspension period, the Contractor will not be in breach of its obligations to the Customer. The delivery deadline for suspended deliveries will be extended by the duration of the Customer’s delay in payment of the purchase price.

10. Excessive Goods

If the Contractor delivers a quantity of Goods exceeding the contracted amount, the Customer may reject the excess Goods upon receipt. Failure to do so during the receipt of Goods, and not documenting it in writing on the Delivery Note or another document, implies the Customer’s acceptance of the excess quantity. In such cases, the Customer is obligated to pay the contractual price based on the unit price agreed upon in the Contract or as specified in the updated price list of the Contractor as of the date of delivery to the Customer.

11. Change to Confirmed Order/Offer
