1.1     These are the terms and conditions on which we, Williams Balear S.L.U. (the “Company”), shall supply to you, the customer (the “Customer”), the tender(s) and/or accessories described on the order form (the “Goods”). Your order contained on the order form (the “Order”) is your offer to purchase the Goods upon these terms. The agreement is formed when we accept that offer by our authorised representative signing and dating the Order, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us (the “Agreement”).

1.2     You have different rights under these terms depending on whether you qualify as a consumer or a business customer:

  • you are a consumer if you are buying the Goods from us wholly or mainly for your own use (not for use in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession); and
  • you are a business customer if you are not a consumer.

1.3     We may need certain information from you in order to complete your Order, fulfil our obligations under this agreement and/or to comply with the applicable laws and regulations on the prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing. If you do not give us the required information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may (at our discretion) either cancel this Agreement or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for supplying the Goods late if it is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.

2. PRICE

The purchase price of the Goods (the “Price”) shall be the price stated or referred to in the acceptance of the Order including Value Added Tax.

The Company shall also have the right to make a reasonable charge for mooring, storage, maintenance and insurance of the Goods, and such charges shall be added to the Price. All amounts owed by the Customer and unpaid at the due date shall carry interest at 3% above the legal interest rate on the money (tipo de interés legal del dinero) from time to time in force, accruing on a daily basis from the due date until actual payment of the overdue amount.
