Opposing terms or terms deviating from these PT&#038;Cs are not recognised by <strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong>. <strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong> expressly rejects any such terms.<br \/>\n1.4.\tIn the interests of better readability, gender-equitable language has not been used. The meaning of the substantives used applies in all cases to all people (m\/f\/x).<\/p>\n<h2>2. CONTRACT FORMATION<\/h2>\n<p>2.1.\tQuotations and cost estimates received are deemed to be binding for the period of time stated, unless expressly described as non-binding. The prices, unless explicitly otherwise stated, are quoted net of the applicable Austrian VAT rate. The euro (EUR) is deemed to be the currency of payment, unless otherwise agreed.<br \/>\n2.2.\tA contract is deemed to have been formed if <strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong> sends an order confirmation to the supplier, or signs a contract, which makes reference to the relevant quotation. The order confirmation may also be sent in electronic form.<br \/>\n2.3.\tThe order confirmation will not contain an official company signature; if requested by the supplier, such a confirmation can be sent separately.<br \/>\n2.4.\tAny variations to the order confirmation\/contract referred to verbally or in emails or other written documents are only relevant if explicit reference is made to them in the order confirmation.<br \/>\n2.5.\tThese General Terms and Conditions of Purchase apply also to follow-on orders, even if no explicit reference is made to this effect.<br \/>\n2.6.\tUnless explicitly agreed in writing, any agreements and changes must be made in writing to be valid. The requirement for the written form is also deemed to have been met if a free-format email, making reference to the relevant order, is sent.<\/p>\n<h2>3. PRICES AND PAYMENT<\/h2>\n<p>3.1.\tUnless otherwise agreed in advance and in writing, quotations and cost estimates provided by the supplier are made at no cost to <strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong>.<br \/>\n3.2.\tAdditional costs, for instance for dispatch, packaging, insurance, customs duties or for any surcharges that may be applied, must be listed in the quotation.<br \/>\n3.3.\tPayment will be made following full delivery and formal acceptance of the goods\/service provision, together with correct invoicing thereof (correct address, order number cited, VAT number, correct description of the delivery\/service provided), within 30 days net of VAT, unless other payment terms were agreed and stated in the order confirmation.<br \/>\n3.4.\tPart-payments must be separately agreed.<\/p>\n<h2>4. DELIVERY AND PAYMENT<\/h2>\n<p>4.1.\tPartial deliveries or provision of services must be separately agreed.<br \/>\n4.2.\tThe delivery terms and conditions must be agreed in the quotation\/order document.<br \/>\n4.3.\tThe supplier is obliged to ensure the packaging used is fit for purpose, and to send all necessary dispatch documents with the goods.<br \/>\n4.4.\tThe place of delivery will be notified by <strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong> in the order confirmation. The place of fulfilment is <strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong>\u2019s headquarters.<br \/>\n4.5.\tThe supplier bears all risk relating to the delivery until the point of acceptance by <strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong> or an authorised person at the stated place of delivery (INCOTERMS: FCA).<br \/>\n4.6.\tIf the supplier has reasonable grounds to assume that the agreed delivery date will be postponed, the supplier is obliged to give notice of this without delay, citing the reasons for the delay and the expected length of the delay.<br \/>\n4.7.\tIn addition to the general statutory regulations that apply, in the event of the supplier being at least 4 weeks late in delivering the goods\/services, or in the event of some other good cause such as &#8211; in particular &#8211; bankruptcy proceedings being opened in respect of the supplier&#8217;s assets or the dismissal of a bankruptcy petition for lack of cost-covering assets, <strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong> is entitled to withdraw from the contract.<\/p>\n<h2>5. WARRANTY <\/h2>\n<p>5.1.\tThe supplier warrants that the product delivered is free of defects in goods and title and suitable for the specified use; and also that it has the specified properties.<br \/>\n5.2.\tThe warranty period is two years from the point in time at which risk is transferred, as set out in point 4.5.<br \/>\n5.3.\t<strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong>, or a representative of <strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong>, will examine the product delivered within a reasonable period of time (4 weeks maximum) following its receipt. A failure to observe this period of time does not mean that warranty rights within the warranty period have been waived.<br \/>\n5.4.\tIf the product is defective, <strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong> will inform the supplier in writing and demand the rectification of the defect or assert other rights to which it is entitled under warranty law.<\/p>\n<h2>6.

CONFIDENTIALITY AND NON-DISCLOSURE<\/h2>\n<p>7.1. 7.1.\tPersonal data may only be held or processed in accordance with statutory data protection regulations.

Such information may only be passed to others with the express prior consent of the client.<\/p>\n<h2>8. OTHER POINTS<\/h2>\n<p>8.1.\tThese PT&#038;Cs are available in German and English; in case of any doubt, the German version takes preference.<br \/>\n8.2.\tShould individual clauses of a contract or these terms and conditions become invalid, the validity of the other clauses will not otherwise be impaired. The invalid clause shall be replaced by a valid clause that comes as close as possible to the purpose and intent of the original clause.<br \/>\n8.3.\tAustrian law shall apply; international private law clauses and the UNCITRAL agreement on contracts for the international sale of goods shall be excluded.  The INCOTERMS valid at the time of forming the contract shall apply for the purpose of interpreting the terms of trade.<br \/>\n8.4.\tThe place of payment and fulfilment for all obligations arising out of the reciprocal business relationship and these PT&#038;Cs is Klagenfurt am W\u00f6rthersee\/Austria.<br \/>\n8.5.\tIt is agreed that the sole place of jurisdiction for any disputes arising directly or indirectly out of the contractual relationship with <strong><em>KPV<\/em><\/strong> shall be the court in Klagenfurt am W\u00f6rthersee\/Austria with responsibility for the subject matter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Status 03\/2023<\/strong>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General terms and conditions of purchase &#8220;PT&#038;Cs&#8221; Download our General Terms and Conditions of Purchase &#8220;PT&#038;Cs&#8221; as a PDF &#8230; 1.
