Consumer Rights

1. Limit of Liability

• A claim for compensation shall not exceed the aggregate value of the processes performed and/or the goods supplied by Atlantis Print.
• For goods only, a justified complaint will be compensated (at Atlantis Print’s discretion) by a credit of equal value or replacement of the goods.
• We are not liable for any indirect, special or consequential loss, damage, costs, or expenses, nor for any loss of profits, anticipated profits, loss of reputation or goodwill, or other third-party claims.

2. Price

• The price of the Goods and Services is the figure set out in the price list and/or quotation on the date of your order, or as otherwise agreed in writing.
• Atlantis Print reserves the right to increase the price due to factors beyond its control (e.g., material costs, labour costs, foreign exchange fluctuation), but only after giving the Customer written notice before delivery/provision.
• The price excludes any packaging or delivery/transportation fees.

3. Delivery and Payment

• Delivery/provision shall take place at the Atlantis Print branch where the order was placed or another agreed place. The Customer must take delivery within 7 days of notification of availability.
• Specified delivery dates are approximate only and not "of the essence" unless agreed in writing.
• Atlantis Print is not liable for loss caused by delay in delivery/provision, except for Consumer Customers where the delay is caused by Atlantis Print's negligence or breach of contract.
• Business Customers: Delay or failure in delivery/performance does not entitle the Customer to cancel unless they have given Atlantis Print 7 days' written notice to perform within a reasonable period, and Atlantis Print has failed to do so.
• Consumer Customers: Delay or failure does not entitle the Customer to cancel unless they have given Atlantis Print reasonable written notice to perform within a reasonable period, and Atlantis Print has failed to do so.
• If an order is cancelled by the Customer under the above conditions, Atlantis Print will refund any sums paid, and the Customer will not be liable for further payments.
• Payment (for non-Account Customers) is due immediately upon delivery of the completed order. A deposit not exceeding 50% of the estimated cost may be required before commencing work.

4. Retention of Title

• The Goods are at the risk of the Buyer (Customer) from the date and time of delivery.
• Title to the Goods does not pass to the Buyer until Atlantis Print has received all sums due in full (in cash or cleared funds) for the Goods and any other sums due from the Buyer.

5. Cancellation, Refund, and Returns

• It is the Customer's responsibility to inspect the Goods on delivery or collection. Damages or shortages must be reported in writing within 5 days of delivery.
• Queries relating to invoices must be made within 5 working days, and non-delivery queries within 14 days of the invoice date. Issues outside these limits will not be entertained.
• If a problem is clearly due to an Atlantis Print mistake, we will either reprint the job, send a replacement, or negotiate a partial credit.
• Atlantis Print is not liable if the problem is fully attributable to the Customer or took place after delivery/collection.
• We will only accept returned Goods if we are satisfied they are defective and, if required, have carried out an inspection.
• Either party may cancel an order prior to the Customer's acceptance of the quotation. Atlantis Print reserves the right to levy a small charge for administrative expenses.

6. Late Payment and Termination

• We can terminate the sale of Goods if either party commits a material breach of these Terms or if the Customer has a statutory demand/bankruptcy petition issued or is about to become subject to a bankruptcy order.
• If a Customer ceases to or cannot pay their debts, Atlantis Print may stop work and charge for work already carried out and materials purchased.
• Atlantis Print has a general lien on all goods in its possession for unpaid debts and may dispose of such goods after 14 days' notice to recover the debts.
