Introduction
Net Lawman have many versions of terms and conditions documents for use as standard “take it or leave it” document for use on your website or sales material. This page is a guide to which document is most suitable and when.
Why a terms and conditions document?
Of course we all know that terms and conditions are essential. They govern the relationship between you and your customer. Much general law applies to the rules when making contracts with businesses and consumers. Further, if you operate via a website or from a distance, there are further regulations you must comply with. Choosing the right document is therefore essential.
How to choose
Start by looking at your customers. The Distance Selling Regulations and other law provide far greater protection to “consumers” than the business buyers. A consumer is anyone who is not buying in the course of a business.
The “consumer” versions provide that the consumer protection law relates only to consumers, so if you sell to both consumers and to businesses, you can use the “consumer” version for all your customers without giving anything away. Alternatively, you could use both versions and code your site so that the version which comes up before a customer is decided automatically from the data you have asked them to enter.
To keep it clear, the consumer versions are numbered IE-ECM121, IE-ECM 122, IE-ECM123, and so on, while the business versions are numbered IE-ECM101, IE-ECM102, IE-ECM103, and so on.
If you sell goods from your website, choose IE-ECM101 or IE-ECM121. If you do not use a website for actual selling, choose IE-ECM102 or IE-ECM122.
If you sell services, use IE-ECM103 or IE-ECM123.
If you sell a product which is delivered by soft copy download or email (as we do at Net Lawman) use IE-ECM104 or IE-ECM124
If you sell soft copy download goods and also hard goods which require physical delivery, choose IE-ECM125.
Finally, if you would like us to draw a version specially for you, we should be delighted to do so - at a remarkably low price. Here are details of our drafting service. |
