1.1 In these Conditions:
1.2 “Medialogix” means Medialogix Limited; (registered number 04799513) whose registered office is at Forward House, 17 High Street, Henley in Arden, B95 5AA, “the Customer” means the person whose order is accepted by Medialogix; “Contract” means the contract for the purchase and sale of hardware and/or software and/or support and/or services incorporating these Conditions.

1.5 These are for the duration of a rolling twelve months, three years or five years (depending on agreement) and once invoiced can only be cancelled by notice in writing to Medialogix to be received prior to three months before the relevant anniversary date.
2. Basis of Sale
2.1 Medialogix will sell and the Customer will purchase the hardware and/or software in accordance with any written order of the Customer which is accepted by Medialogix, subject in either case to these Conditions.
2.2 Medialogix will provide the services to the Customer that are set out in the service level agreement, the order or quotation (as the case may be) between the Company and the Customer to which these terms are attached.
2.3 These Conditions govern the Contract to the exclusion of any other terms and conditions (if any) contained on or referred to in an order form or other communication from the Customer. No addition, variation or substitution of these Conditions will bind Medialogix or form part of any order unless agreed in writing and signed by authorised representatives of both parties.
2.4 These Conditions and the terms of any order constitute the entire understanding of the parties and supersede all prior promises, representations and undertakings.
2.5 No Medialogix employee or agent is authorised to make any representations concerning the subject matter of the Contract unless confirmed by Medialogix in writing. The Customer acknowledges that it is not relying on any such representation not so confirmed.
3. Orders
3.1 Any order placed with Medialogix will be accepted at Medialogix’s sole discretion and, if accepted, will only be accepted on and subject to these Conditions.
3.2 Each order so accepted constitutes a separate legally binding Contract between Medialogix and the Customer.
3.3 The Customer is responsible for ensuring the accuracy of any order submitted to Medialogix.
3.4 Medialogix reserves the right to modify any hardware and/or software ordered, which are required to conform to any applicable safety or statutory requirements, or which do not materially affect their quality or performance.
3.5 Once accepted by Medialogix, no order may be cancelled by the Customer without Medialogix’s express prior written agreement.
4. Prices
4.1 Orders are accepted at the price given at the date of order.
4.2 Unless otherwise stated, quotations are valid for acceptance for 30 days or earlier acceptance, after which they will lapse. Any quotation that has lapsed must be reconfirmed with Medialogix prior to an order being accepted.
4.3 Medialogix reserves the right, by giving the Customer written notice at any time before delivery, to increase the price of hardware and/or software and/or support and/or services to reflect any increase in the cost to Medialogix which is due to any factor beyond Medialogix’s control. Where possible, Medialogix will provide 30 days’ notice of any price changes but the Customer acknowledges this may not always be possible where prices vary for reasons outside of Medialogix’s control. Medialogix therefore reserves the right to vary prices at short, or even no, notice. Any price changes will be notified to the Customer as soon as reasonably possible.
4.4 All prices are exclusive of VAT and any other sales taxes and delivery charges, unless otherwise stated. All delivery charges are charged as extra, irrespective of invoice value. Any overseas duties and taxes will be the responsibility of the Customer.

4.6 In the case of site visits the daily rate quoted is payable in full for a day or part day. Any additional work, development or equipment specified during a site visit must be confirmed in writing prior to being carried out or authorised by the customer’s signatory on the site engineer’s sign off sheet and will be invoiced separately. The Customer will provide safe and unrestricted access to the engineer making a site visit and any lost time as a result of any failure to comply with this obligation is chargeable at normal day rates. If a minimum 48 hours notice of cancellation is not received a cancelled site visit will also be chargeable at normal day rates.
5. Payment

5.9 Medialogix shall be entitled but not obliged at any time or times without notice to the Customer to set off any liability of the Customer (or any group company of the Customer) to Medialogix against any liability of Medialogix to the Customer (or any group company of the Customer) (in either case howsoever arising and whether any such liability is present or future liquidated or un-liquidated and irrespective of the currency of its denomination) and may for such purpose convert or exchange any currency. Any exercise by Medialogix of its rights under this clause shall be without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to Medialogix under this Contract or otherwise.
6. Delivery
6.1 Delivery is the responsibility of the Customer and Medialogix arranges delivery solely as the Customer’s agent.

Any such loss or damage must be notified to Medialogix and the courier, in writing within 48 hours.

If the Customer refuses or fails to accept any delivery, Medialogix reserves the right to invoice the Customer in respect of the balance remaining undelivered, with payment becoming due immediately, and Medialogix shall be entitled to charge reasonable storage costs to the Customer, the hardware and/or software being held at the Customer’s risk.
6.5 Medialogix may agree, for a separate charge, to provide certain advice and/or consultancy services and/or training at the premises of the Customer or elsewhere. Such services shall be subject to obtaining full information from the Customer as to its specific requirements.

8.4.3 if withheld by Medialogix for any valid reason, at such time as the Customer would have been able to collect them had Medialogix not been so withholding them, and the Customer is responsible for insuring the hardware and software from any such time.

8.5.1 the Customer shall hold the hardware as Medialogix’s fiduciary agent and bailee, and shall keep all such items separate and distinct from those of the Customer and third parties, and separately stored, protected and adequately insured, and identified by labelling as Medialogix’s property. Until such time, the Customer shall be entitled to resell or use such items in the ordinary course of its business provided that the net proceeds of sale are sufficient to discharge the outstanding payment obligations to Medialogix, but shall account to Medialogix for the proceeds of sale or otherwise of such items, whether tangible or intangible, including insurance proceeds, and shall keep all such proceeds separate and distinct from any moneys or property of the Customer and third parties and, in the case of tangible proceeds, properly stored, protected and adequately insured; and
8.5.2 provided that the hardware is still in existence and has not been resold, Medialogix shall be entitled at any time to require the Customer to deliver up the hardware to Medialogix and, if the Customer fails to do so forthwith, to enter on any premises of the Customer or any third party where such items are stored and repossess them.
8.5.3 the Customer will indemnify Medialogix for any loss or degradation of or damage to any hardware caused whilst such hardware is in the possession or under the control of the Customer.

If the Customer does not consider that this limit is sufficient to protect its interests, the Customer should contact Medialogix and Medialogix will be pleased to discuss with the Customer whether it is able to amend this limit. The Customer accepts that Medialogix shall be entitled to charge the Customer, and the Customer shall pay, an additional fee for accepting any different limit if Medialogix agrees to do so.
