These Terms and Conditions apply to the supply of all Goods and/or Services by the relevant Snap Franchisee ("Snap") and do not bind Snap Franchising NZ in any manner whatsoever.
1.1 No contract shall arise between Snap and the Client unless and until the following occurs:
1.2 Quotes are valid for a period of 14 days from their date of issue. Quotes will be deemed accepted upon the Client placing an order and/or instructing Snap to proceed with the Project.
1.3 Proposals are valid and may be accepted within 14 days from their date of issue. After such 14 day period has expired, Snap reserves the right to reconsider any term or condition of the Proposal (including the re-pricing of the Proposal).
1.4 Prices included in Quotations and Proposals are based on Snap's current cost of production, (materials, labour, machine time etc). If between the date of the Quotation and/or Proposal and the date of Completion of the Project, the price of any component such as labour or materials increases, Snap reserves the right to vary the costs payable for the Project to reasonably reflect such increased costs. Snap will advise the Client of any such proposed increase and the Client will have the right to terminate (by notice in writing to Snap) the Project, subject to payment of all costs for work performed by Snap up to the date of such termination.
2.1 If the Client contracts Snap on behalf of any other person i.e. other than for the Client personally, the Client warrants that they are authorised to enter into a contract on behalf of such person and that the Client will be liable for all costs irrespective of whether or not the details of such other person are disclosed to Snap.
2.2 If Snap is contracted to work on a Proposal for a Client of the Client, Snap will have no duty or responsibility to such Client and will not be contractually bound to such Client.
2.3 The Client agrees to indemnify Snap against any claim (of any nature) by any Client of the Client which arises as a direct or indirect consequence of the Client's use, or inability or unwillingness to use, the material delivered by Snap to the Client.
3.1 Snap prides itself on its ability to deliver quality work in a timely and cost-effective manner. Fundamental to this process is the completeness of scope of the Client's brief. To be able to provide Goods and/or Services and to deliver a Project on time and within the parameters of a Quotation and/or Proposal, all supporting documentation and information must be provided to Snap before the issue of any Proposal and before Snap commences work.
3.2 Snap shall only be required to fulfil the instructions specified in the Quotation and/or Proposal. Snap shall not be responsible for errors or omissions in the Client's instructions or verbal instructions.
3.3 On the valid acceptance of a Proposal, Snap will, where applicable, confirm the proposed process, timeline and delivery date for the performance of the Project.
4.1 All prices are based on work specified in the Quotations and/or Proposals and/or further instructions given by the Client. The labour costs specified in Snap's Quotations and/or Proposals are based either on an hourly rate or on a Project basis. On occasion, where requested by a Client, Snap may consider a retainer arrangement.
4.2 The Client will be liable for any goods and services tax payable on the supply of Goods and/or Services by Snap to the Client. Goods and services tax will be charged in addition to costs and fees and will be itemised in the Invoices.
4.3 Snap's initial consultation is provided free of charge.
4.4 Emergency turnaround requirements of less than 48 hours, and out of business hour requirements may attract a premium, which will be negotiated and agreed with the Client. Prices will be increased to cover overtime work or other additional costs incurred as a result of any requirement for urgent completion of a Project.
5.1 All Invoices will be payable COD unless prior credit arrangements have been agreed with Snap.
5.2 Any credit arrangements will require Snap's Account Application form to be completed and approved by Snap. Any credit provided to a Client must be paid in full within 30 days from the date of the Invoice.
5.3 Any deposit specified in the Proposal, must be paid by the Client on the date of acceptance of the Proposal and in any event before commencement of the Project. The amount of deposit will vary with the Goods and/or Services to be provided.
5.4 The amount of a deposit will reflect Snap's reasonable estimate of costs incurred to the date prior to the due date of payment of the deposit and is non-refundable.
5.5 Snap will issue Invoices at Completion of the Project for the price specified in the Quotation and/or Proposal plus any additional charges referred to in these Terms and Conditions or as agreed, or if the Project is lengthy, Snap may at its discretion issue interim Invoices on either a monthly basis or such lesser period by reference to the work performed to that date in accordance with the fee schedule included in the Proposal, or if no fee schedule is specified, as reasonably calculated by Snap by reference to the amount of work performed.
5.6 Snap may issue an Invoice for the amount specified in the Quotation and/or Proposal before commencing the Project where Snap has not previously carried out work for the Client or where Snap considers it prudent to do so. Snap may, in the event that Snap is of the view that completing the Project will take more than a month, at any time before the Project is completed, issue one or more Invoices for a proportion of the amount specified in the Quotation and/or Proposal (the proportion to be at Snap's discretion) and require that proportion to be paid in advance of any further work being done.
6.1 If an Invoice is not paid when due, Snap may cease any further work on the Project until all outstanding Invoices have been paid.
6.2 Snap may at its option charge interest on amounts not paid when due. Such interest is to be calculated on a daily basis from the date any such amount should have been paid until the date of payment. Such interest will be payable at a rate equal to that charged by the Bank of New Zealand on overdrafts not exceeding $100,000, plus 3%. Such charge represents Snap's genuine assessment of the liquidated damages which Snap will suffer as a result of the Client's delay in making payment.
6.3 The Client must pay to Snap any costs, expenses or losses incurred by Snap as a result of the Client's failure to pay Snap all sums outstanding from the Client to Snap (including without limitation all debt collection and legal costs (on an indemnity basis)) which are incurred by Snap in recovering monies due by the Client to Snap.

8.1 The Client must inspect Goods and/or Services supplied by Snap within seven (7) days from delivery or otherwise, within seven (7) days of notification that the Goods and/or Services are ready for collection. Any claims against Snap must be in writing within such seven (7) days.

9.2 Except as otherwise provided in the New Zealand Consumer Law, any advice, recommendation, information, assistance or service given by Snap in relation to the Goods and/or Services provided by Snap or their use or application is given in good faith and is believed to be accurate, appropriate and reliable at the time it is given, but is provided without any warranty of accuracy, appropriateness or reliability. Snap does not accept any liability or responsibility for any loss suffered as a result of the Client's reliance on such advice, recommendation, information, assistance or service.

9.5 Snap will not be liable to the Client for loss, howsoever caused, of any data stored on disks, tapes, compact disks or other media supplied by the Client to Snap or for any damage, loss or destruction of any property of the Client unless the loss or damage has been caused by the failure of Snap to exercise due care and skill in handling or storing such property.
9.6 Unless expressly set out herein, all implied warranties and conditions in relation to any supply by Snap are expressly excluded (unless such warranties cannot at law be excluded).

While reasonable care will be taken, Snap has no control over the activities of a Third Party Contractor and therefore, except as otherwise provided in the New Zealand Consumer Law, accepts no responsibility for the services provided to the Client by any such Third Party Contractor or for any errors or omissions in its services or products. Any claim by the Client in relation to such services must be made directly against the Third Party Contractor.
