1. ACCEPTANCE
By placing an order with the Printer, it is deemed that the Customer has accepted the Printer’s Standard Terms and Conditions.

2. INTERPRETATION
In these Terms and Conditions, the following shall have the meaning as set out:

"Copy" means all Customer material or information supplied to the Printer for printing in such formats as agreed with the Printer pursuant to this Agreement.

"Customer" means any company, partnership firm or individual that engages the Printer to carry out the Services on its behalf.

"Printer" means Newsquest Media Printing which is a production division of Newsquest Media Group Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales under number 1676637 and having its registered office at 58 Church Street, Weybridge, Surrey, KT13 8DP.

"Services" means the printing, delivery or any additional services carried out by the Printer for the Customer.

"Terms" means the Printer’s Standard Terms and Conditions.

3. QUOTATIONS
Whilst all quotes are valid for 30 days (subject to available production capacity, sight of Customer’s Copy by Printer, paper price and availability at time of delivery) the Printer may decline any order upon receipt and may revise any quotation at any time thereafter unless fixed by written contract.

4. VALUE ADDED TAX
Unless otherwise stated all sums quoted are exclusive of value added tax, which the Printer will charge where applicable. For example: the printing service is exempt from VAT but is payable on the delivery service.

5. COST VARIATIONS
Quotations are based on the current costs of production and are subject to variation in order to meet any increases to the Printer’s production costs, unless the quotation is fixed by written contract. Any variation to prices will take effect after 7 (seven) days’ notice to the Customer.

6. EXTRA REQUIREMENTS
Any extras required such as a sample request, will be at an extra charge to the Customer. If the Customer’s order requires paper which is not ordinarily stocked by the Printer for example special type of paper the cost of purchase of the same will be charged to the customer even if the customer cancels the order.

7. PROOFS
The cost of content proofs is not included in the Printer’s quote. Any proofs required by the Customer will incur an extra charge, and may also require additional time to be scheduled. Author’s corrections, including alterations in style, and the cost of additional proofs necessitated by such corrections, will be chargeable. The Customer accepts that once a proof of the printing is submitted for the Customer’s approval, the Printer shall not be responsible for any errors or omissions on the proof which are not identified and corrected by the Customer on the proof.

8. PAYMENT
Payment terms: 30 days from date of invoice ("Due Date") where credit status is supported by satisfactory bank and trade references, unless special terms are agreed in writing by the Printer in advance. Any payments after the Due Date shall be subject to late interest payment at 4% per annum above Barclays Bank Plc base rate from time to time on the outstanding sum, accruing on a daily basis. Customer shall be responsible for all reasonable costs for collection of late payments due incurred by the Printer. In addition the Printer reserves the right to suspend all further printing for the Customer until full payment is made on any outstanding sums due.
