Technical Services General Terms and Conditions

 

1. General Scope

  • Clearwing carries out repairs solely in line with the following conditions; furthermore, the general sales terms and conditions of Clearwing Systems Integration, LLC apply. Clearwing does not accept conflicting or deviating terms and conditions of the client or order confirmations under deviating terms and conditions, unless specifically agreed upon by Clearwing. Clearwing’s conditions also apply if Clearwing carries out the repair without disagreeing to the conflicting or deviating terms and conditions of the client.
  • The terms and conditions set forth herein do not apply to repairs Clearwing carries out on the basis of a warranty agreement.
  • If a sole clause of these general terms and conditions for Technical Services is invalid, the Technical Services contract, without the invalid clause, remains valid. The invalid clause is replaced by the respective applicable law. The court of jurisdiction is Milwaukee, WI.

2. Warranty Claims

  • A claim for a repair based on a warranty must be announced with the placement of the service request and evidence must be provided. Evidence includes the purchase invoice, packing slip, or order confirmation.
  • Any and all warranties will be voided if any unauthorized repairs, programming, or adjustments were performed on any of the warranted equipment provided by Clearwing.
  • Issues not covered under warranty include, but are not limited to force majeure, damage caused by water, improper use, non-complete or dismantled equipment or shipping of an electronic equipment packed in non-compliant electrostatic discharge (ESD) material.
  • If warranty service is requested and it is determined that the issue is not warranty related, regular Clearwing service charges and associated travel expenses shall be applied to the service order.

3. Carrying Out Repairs

  • Service orders for discontinued models can only be carried out subject to the availability of spare parts.
  • Clearwing reserves the right to carry out the repair by a Clearwing Service Technician at a Clearwing service location or through a third party.
  • Repair target dates are always nonbinding. The definitive repair time depends on the actual repair work and parts availability.
  • Clearwing reserves the right to replace defective equipment with new or refurbished exchange equipment. Thus, Clearwing becomes the owner of the replaced defective equipment.
  • If the equipment cannot be repaired or the repair is not economically advantageous, Clearwing will inform the client accordingly about the necessity to order new equipment. If the client wishes to retrieve the defective equipment, Clearwing will return it and charge all respective costs.
  • If the client does not retrieve the defective equipment eight (8) weeks from the date of service order, Clearwing will dispose of the defective equipment. Clearwing reserves the right to charge the client for any respective disposal costs incurred.

4. Service Order Estimates

  • Service order estimates are nonbinding. Clearwing reserves the right to charge for the preparation of the service order estimate in the form of a service estimate fee.
  • The service estimate fee will be deducted from the final service order when the service order estimate is authorized for work to be carried out by Clearwing.
  • Service order estimates are made on the basis of partly dismounted equipment. If additional damaged parts or necessary work steps are identified during the repair that lead to an upward deviation from the service order estimate by more than 10%, Clearwing will inform the client accordingly in writing and carry out the repair only after a renewed authorization of a service order.
  • With the service order estimate, the client receives a detailed list of the work steps to be carried out and the necessary spare parts.
  • The service order estimate remains valid for four (4) weeks after the issuance date.

5. Storage

  • Clearwing reserves the right to treat the defective equipment as abandoned after a storage time of eight(8) weeks from the date of delivering the service order estimate and twice reminding the client about their pending decision. In that case, Clearwing reserves the right to use the equipment at Clearwing’s discretion and charge the client with applicable storage and/or disposal costs.

6. Shipping

  • The return shipment of the repaired equipment will be carried out by Clearwing’s regular shipping company, unless otherwise agreed upon. If Clearwing incurs additional costs as a result of the client’s further requirements, Clearwing reserves the right to charge the client for additional costs accrued.
  • The agreed upon shipping company undertakes to hand over the repaired equipment to an employee of the client. If the client requests the shipping company do otherwise, the equipment is treated as received by the client with their delivery.

7. Warranty for Repairs

  • Clearwing shall warranty the repaired equipment to be free from defective components or faulty workmanship within the restrictions and regulations of the manufacturers’ warranties.
  • Clearwing shall warranty labor, workmanship, and installations provided by its own entity for a period not to exceed thirty (30) Days from date of invoice.

8. Repair Costs and Payment

  • Charges for repairs are calculated in accordance with the actual incurred expenses. See Clearwing Technical Services rates for a current list of applicable Technical Services fees.
  • In the event Clearwing supplies exchanged equipment and retains the defective equipment as the new owner, Clearwing reserves the right to charge average repair costs as incurred in the past for this model. However, this procedure requires the repair of the defective equipment to be economic.
  • Service order invoices are due upon receipt of the invoice unless payment terms have been previously agreed upon by both parties.

9. Retention of Title

  • The repaired equipment and/or spare parts remain Clearwing’s property until the complete payment of the service order invoice.
