1. Agreement
This document shall set for the agreement (“Agreement”) between you (hereafter referred as “you” or “Buyer”) and ALUZ, a California corporation (hereafter referred to as “ALUZ,” “us,” “we,” or “our” as the context may require). These terms and conditions in this Agreement (“Terms”) apply to the purchase and sale of products from ALUZ. These Terms are subject to change by ALUZ without prior written notice at any time, in our sole discretion.
You agree that the Terms are in lieu of any provisions, terms or conditions on Buyer purchase orders or other agreements submitted to ALUZ which are in any way inconsistent with, modify or add to the Terms unless a separate agreement is executed between you and an authorized representative of ALUZ. Sales representatives are not authorized to deviate from the Terms stated herein. Any deviation from the Terms must be approved by ALUZ’s Chief Executive Officer.
The failure of us to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
The Terms set forth herein shall constitute the entire agreement between you and ALUZ and supersede any and all prior agreements, communications, and understandings, whether oral or written (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the Terms). Any ambiguities in the interpretation of these Terms shall not be construed against the drafting party, ALUZ.
2. Prices And Payment Terms
All prices, discounts, and promotions are subject to change without notice. Payment terms are within our sole discretion and, unless otherwise agreed by us in writing, your adherence to the below stated policy is a condition precedent to our acceptance of your submitted purchase order.
For new customers, your invoice must be paid in full before ALUZ will accept your submitted purchase order. As a new customer, you may be invited to submit a credit application for your subsequent purchases with ALUZ. If ALUZ approves your credit application, then the invoice must be paid Net-30 days from the date of the invoice. You represent and warrant that the information you provided in the credit application is accurate, correct, and complete, and you are duly authorized to submit the credit application for ALUZ’s consideration. For customers with an approved credit application with ALUZ, no orders will be sent to production if your account is 45 days past due, or your account balance and incoming orders exceeds the credit limit. If your order is in production and your account becomes 45 days past due, the finished product will not be shipped until your account is in good standing as determined by ALUZ. In addition, if your submitted purchase order is greater than $10,000 USD, without regards to the available credit line with ALUZ, ALUZ will require a 50% deposit of the invoiced amount before ALUZ ships your product. All payments must be made in U.S. Dollars only.
3. Order Acceptance Process, No-Cancellation Policy
You agree that any quote received from ALUZ or through its agent is an estimate, not an offer to sell. You agree that your purchase order to ALUZ is an offer to buy ALUZ’s products under these Terms. Accordingly, unless your purchase orders are accepted by us, we will not be obligated to sell the products to you. Your purchase orders are non-cancellable after ALUZ’s acceptance. ALUZ’s acceptance will be in writing, such as emailed acceptance or by invoice for payment.
Our acknowledgment of your order means that your purchase order request has been received; it does not mean that your purchase order has been accepted or shipped or that the price or availability of an item has been confirmed. Upon review, ALUZ may either accept or reject your purchase order, or issue a sales order, outlining counter-terms and conditions for your consideration.
You acknowledge that, ALUZ, in its sole discretion, may commence production process in anticipation of fulfilling your submitted purchase order in accordance with the Terms, or in separate terms and conditions to be agreed by you and ALUZ. In the former event, you agree and acknowledge that commencement of production process by ALUZ is an accommodation to you and ALUZ will incur costs associated with your submitted purchase order, which you will be responsible in the event that ALUZ does not accept your submitted purchase order. In the latter event, ALUZ will issue to you a sales order with counter-terms and conditions which you must respond within 10 calendar days from the issuance date with your objections. You agree that, because of an on-going business relationship between ALUZ and you, your silence (i.e., no objection or express rejection from you) shall constitute your acceptance of ALUZ’s sales order and the counter-terms and conditions.
ALUZ makes a conscientious effort to describe and display its products and services accurately on ALUZ’s website. Despite these efforts, a small number of items on the website may be described inaccurately, or unavailable, and we may experience delays in updating information on the website and in our advertising through our sales agents. As a result, we cannot and do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information, including prices, product images, specifications, availability, and services. We reserve the right to change or update information and to correct errors, inaccuracies, or omissions at any time without prior notice. We apologize for any inconvenience. If an item’s correct price is higher than our stated price, if the item is no longer available, or if we determine that there were inaccuracies in our product information, we will cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation via email.
We reserve the right to refuse any order you place with us directly or through our sales agent. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per order. These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same credit card, and/or orders that use the same billing and/or shipping address. If we make a change to or cancel an order, we may attempt to notify you by contacting via the e-mail and/or calling the phone numbers provided at the time the order was made.
4. Catalog And Price List
Prices for our products are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right at any time to modify or discontinue the products (or any part thereof) without notice at any time. We shall not be liable to you or to any third-party for any modification, price change, suspension or discontinuance of the products. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time.
We have made every effort to display as accurately as possible the dimensions, colors, and images of our products that appear on our website and our catalog. We cannot guarantee that your computer monitor’s display or printing of catalog will be accurate. We do not warrant that the quality of any products, services, information, or other material purchased or obtained by you will meet your expectations, or that any errors in them will be corrected. You agree that ALUZ is not responsible for any labor chargeback in connection with errors on our website or catalog, including, but not limited to, measurements, press, description, and color.
We reserve the right, but are not obligated, to limit the sales of our products to any person, geographic region, or jurisdiction. We may exercise this right on a case-by-case basis. We reserve the right to limit the quantities of any products that we offer. All descriptions of products or product pricing are subject to change at any time without notice, at the sole discretion of us. Any offer for any product made on ALUZ’s website is void where prohibited.
5. Freight, Insurance, Exporter’S Charges, Duties, Title, Risk Of Loss
You agree to pay a minimum shipping charge of $50 USD regardless of the quantity or the value of your order. You are responsible for all transportation-related costs, including, but not limited to, exporters charges, shipping charges, and insurance. ALUZ will either (a) add these charges to the prices specified herein, (b) add these charges to ALUZ’s invoices as separate items, or (c) ship with charges to be collected by the carrier or exporter, whichever procedure Buyer timely directs. In the absence of timely direction, ALUZ’s choice of procedure will be conclusively deemed to be acceptable to Buyer. Export/Import documentation and duties are the responsibility of the Buyer. Title and risk of loss for products furnished by ALUZ shall pass to you upon delivery to a common carrier, or once the products are picked up by your designated carrier, at ALUZ’s plant.
6. Freight Terms
Standard freights terms are F.O.B. factory “prepay and charge”. Prepay shipping charges will be added to your invoice. It is your responsibility to submit claims for freight-related damages and shortages of packages to the carrier. This includes orders that have been quoted with freight expenses. You agree that the shipping dates given by ALUZ are estimates only, and do not constitute a fixed or guaranteed delivery date. You agree to release and waive ALUZ from claims for damages, penalties or back charges of any kind, resulting from, or related to, delayed shipments from ALUZ, your designated carrier’s delay in the pickup of your order, or the carrier’s inability to deliver by the delivery date.
7. Taxes
PricesPrices stated do not include applicable taxes or duties for your jurisdiction. It is your ultimate responsibility to pay for any taxes or duties applicable to the goods purchased from ALUZ. Therefore, your invoice may include taxes or duties, including those taxes or duties required to be collected by ALUZ on your behalf, with the exception of a tax measured by the income of ALUZ.
8. Limited Returns, RMA Process, Restocking
TitleReturn requests resulting from (a) rework of product(s), (b) shipment of the incorrect product(s), or (c) shortage of ordered product must be made to ALUZ within ten (10) days of delivery to you. For defective products, your return request must be received within the period covered by the Limited Warranty. No other returns are authorized unless specifically agreed by ALUZ in writing.
To start your return, you must timely contact ALUZ’s customer support department via phone or in writing. ALUZ’s customer support department will provide you with the Return Materials Authorization (“RMA”) form, which you must complete in full, sign and date, and submit to ALUZ’s customer support department to receive an RMA number. The contact for ALUZ’s customer support department can be found on our website, www. ALUZlighting.com/info/contact-us.html. Once an RMA number is issued to you, your returned product must be received by ALUZ no later than 30 calendar days from the RMA number issuance date. Your RMA number must be shown on the exterior of the return package and a packing slip must be supplied with a copy of the approved and signed RMA form. No returns of any type will be accepted without an unexpired RMA number. ALUZ will not accept your returned products if the returned products show wear and tear, or the returns were received after the 30 calendar days. You are solely responsible for all shipping and handling charges on returned products unless otherwise agreed by ALUZ. Accordingly, you bear the risk of loss for returned products during the delivery and until the returned products are received and accepted by ALUZ for RMA processing. All returns must be delivered to ALUZ, freight prepaid, to the address shown on the RMA form.
You agree that all returned products shall be subject to inspection by ALUZ and you further agree that, at ALUZ’s sole discretion, ALUZ may issue a credit to you, which shall be final. IN NO CASE SHALL A REFUND BE ISSUED TO YOU FOR RETURNED PRODUCTS. If a credit is issued for an accepted return, the credit shall apply only against future orders and not against any pending invoices. Restocking charges may apply unless waived in writing by ALUZ.
9. Limited Product Warranty And Disclaimer Of Warranties
These provisions constitute a part of the consideration for the products to be furnished by ALUZ, and set forth the entire agreement with respect to warranties and the remedies for their breach. ALUZ hereby warrants that for a period of 2 years from the time of shipment from ALUZ’s factory, the products shall conform to their description in agreed upon specifications, drawings or both, and shall be free from defects in material and workmanship (“Limited Warranty”). If the date of shipment cannot be identified, the warranty period starts from the invoice date.
The sole and exclusive remedies provided by this Limited Warranty are the obligations undertaken by ALUZ in this paragraph. Defective products covered by and within the 2 years Limited Warranty shall be repaired, reworked, or replaced as determined by ALUZ. The liability of ALUZ under this Limited Warranty is limited to replacing, reworking, or repairing such products in which there are defects. ALUZ’s obligation hereunder do not include any responsibility of the costs occasioned by removal, transportation, or reinstallation of such products, nor any rights, claims, or remedies with respect to direct damage, loss of use, lost profits, or other secondary or consequential damage of any kind, however occasioned.

11. Excusable Delay, Force Majeure
We will not be liable or responsible to you, nor be deemed to have defaulted or breached these Terms or the Agreement, for any failure or delay in our performance under these Terms when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts or circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God, flood, fire, earthquake, explosion, governmental actions, war, invasion or hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest, national emergency, revolution, insurrection, epidemic, lockouts, strikes or other labor disputes (whether or not relating to our workforce), or restraints or delays affecting carriers or inability or delay in obtaining supplies of adequate or suitable materials, materials or telecommunication breakdown or power outage.

If the receiving party is required to make such disclosure, it shall first give ALUZ written notice of the required disclosure and fully cooperate with ALUZ in preventing such disclosure to the extent consistent with applicable law or in seeking a protective order or other means for limiting the extent of the disclosure, as ALUZ pay deem appropriate.
