The present Terms and conditions (hereinafter referred to as the ”T&C”) form an inseparable part of every Purchase Contract entered into by and between DOMO GLASS, s.r.o. as the seller and the purchaser according to the provision of the Section 409 et seq. of the Act No. 513/1991 Coll. Commercial Code.
The present T&C regulate the legal relations between DOMO GLASS, s.r.o. as the seller and the purchaser expressing its interest in compliance with and in the method according to the T&C to purchase the goods. These legal relations between the seller and the purchaser occurring at the merchandise purchase, supply and complaints due to its defects are governed depending on their content and parties to the purchase appropriately by the provisions of the appropriate legal regulations of the Slovak Republic, mainly the Civil Code of the Slovak Republic and the Commercial Code of the Slovak Republic. These T&C regulate also the liabilities of the contracting parties from the moment of making the Purchase Contract based on the registration of the purchaser´s entity. Mutual relations of the seller and purchaser are also governed by the Complaints Order in the Part VII. hereunder.
The contracting parties consider the written „Order Confirmation“ as the proper Purchase Contract, whereas the present Seller´s T&C form an inseparable part of it. If the contracting parties make separately a written Purchase Contract for the same subject of fulfilment, the contractual covenants according to such Purchase Contract shall apply together with the T&C of the Seller which is the business company DOMO GLASS, s.r.o.. If the order is made on behalf of the purchaser by a person in its operation, such act shall be binding directly for the purchaser according to the provision of the Section 16 of the Commercial Code.
The subject of individual Purchase Contracts shall be the sale of metallurgic material and related services that represent the business of DOMO GLASS, s.r.o. according to the purchaser´s requirements. The basic liability of DOMO GLASS, s.r.o. as the seller is to supply the agreed-upon merchandise and services within the agreed deadline and quality and the basic liability of the purchaser is to take the goods over and to pay the agreed purchase price for it in full and within the agreed due date according to the tax document – an invoice.
If the purchaser requires that the subject of the Purchase Contract or Order Confirmation is a special requirement represented by material division, it is necessary that the purchaser indicates this requirement in the Purchase Contract or order and that the purchaser reports the relevant merchandise taking at least a day before to the commercial assistant appointed in the Purchase Contract. Material division means “commercial” division, namely with the accuracy -0 +50 mm (sawing, cutting) and -0 +100 mm (firing) from the length required. The agreement about division (type, date, preliminary price) must be a part of the contract as a basis to assess the liability for a potential defect. The balance which is a part of the supply and arises from the agreed division and is less than the smallest supplied dimension shall be seen by the seller as the material remainder with the dimension less than the required item, i.e. rest from division. With round steel with the diameter over 100 mm the seller sees a material remainder of less than 500 mm to be the remainder. The seller does not divide the connecting material supplied in boxes, sheets from rustless steel, cold-rolled black and zinc-coated sheets, mesh in packs, drawn steel and goods supplied by the manufacturer with final surface treatment (not galvanizing) and in final shape (e.g. secondary products).
