Yale Home Terms and Conditions

YOUR LEGAL GUARANTEE

The legal guarantee is a mandatory guarantee that covers a minimum two years' period for the purchase of goods/products from the seller and is valid in all EU countries. Some jurisdictions have introduced a period that is longer than the minimum two years. The legal guarantee secures the remedies you may use in case a lack of conformity occurs.

In the case of a lack of conformity, you may choose between having the goods/product repaired or replaced – unless repair/replacement is impossible or disproportionate in relation to the other remedy. For example the cost of repair far exceeds the cost of a replacement.

In some jurisdictions you may choose to terminate the agreement (purchase) or obtain a discount of the price paid for the goods/product. Furthermore, if neither repair, nor replacement is possible or proportionate you can exercise the right to terminate or obtain a discount.

You may also exercise the right to terminate the agreement if:

• the seller has not completed the repair or replacement within a reasonable time, or
• the seller has completed the remedy but caused significant inconvenience to the consumer,

The repair and replacement will always to be done free of charge and this includes additional items such as:

• postage costs for returning the goods/product;
• labour costs;
• costs of materials used to repair goods/product.

The legal guarantee of a new good/product lasts at least two years, starting at the moment of delivery of the good/product to the consumer.

HOWEVER PLEASE NOTE: The seller is only liable for defects that existed at the time of purchase. During the first six months, the presumption is that the product does not conform due to a cause which existed at the time of the product’s delivery. If, for instance, six weeks after its delivery to you of a good/product, it stops working, the seller is considered to be responsible.

However, after the expiry of the first six months, the burden of proof shifts and you need to demonstrate that the defect of the good/product existed at the time of the delivery.

5.4 Yale shall be entitled to deliver the Products by instalments and where the Products are so delivered, each delivery shall constitute a separate contract and failure by Yale to deliver any one or more of the instalments in accordance with these Conditions or any claim by the Buyer in respect of any one or more instalments shall not entitle the Buyer to treat any other related contract as repudiated.

8. LIABILITY

8.1 Yale and its affiliates will not be responsible for (i) losses that were not caused by any breach on its part, or (ii) any business loss (including loss of profits, revenue, contracts, anticipated savings, data, goodwill or wasted expenditure), or (iii) any indirect or consequential losses that were not foreseeable to both the Buyer and Yale when the contract for the sale of Products by Yale to the Buyer was formed.
