By visiting and using this web site, each Customer accepts and agrees to these Terms.

Framing. No person, business, or web site may frame this web site or any of the pages on this web site.

Linking. Customer may link to the web site only by linking to the home page of this web site.

Spiders and Crawlers. No person, business, or web site may use any technology (including spiders or crawlers) to search and gain any information from this web site without the prior written consent from an authorised Company representative (such consent is deemed given for standard search engine technology employed by Internet search websites to direct Internet users to this Website).

Batteryfc.com may modify, suspend, or discontinue providing this web site or any Goods or Services (with or without notice) and will not be liable.

Passwords and Security. Only a registered Customer can make offers. Each Customer is responsible for keeping their password secure. Each Customer is solely responsible and liable for activities that occur under their account.

Customers. Customer accounts registered by bots or other automated methods are not permitted. Each Customer must provide their full legal name, a valid email address, and any other information requested in order to complete the registration process.

Deactivation or deletion by Customer. A Customer may deactivate or delete Customer’s account, for any reason.

Invitation to do business. The marketing of the Goods or Services by Batteryfc.com is merely an invitation to do business or for Customer to make an offer to procure Goods or Services.

If Batteryfc.com does not accept any offer, then Batteryfc.com will refund any monies already paid by Customer.

Fees. Despite Batteryfc.com’s best efforts, the stated Fees may be incorrect. Batteryfc.com will confirm the Fees for any Goods or Services when Batteryfc.com accepts the Customer’s offer.

Third party terms. If a third party supplies or delivers any Goods or Services directly to you, third party terms or conditions may apply. Customers are solely responsible to ensure they understand and agree to those terms.

Time and place. The parties conclude any agreement between them at the time when a duly authorised representative of Batteryfc.com accepts the relevant offer and at the place where Batteryfc.com has its head office. Batteryfc.com does not need to communicate the acceptance of the offer to Customer.

Orders. The Terms in effect at the time Customer makes an offer will govern the Order. Each Order will create a separate agreement.

Stock availability. Batteryfc.com may not always have the Goods on which Customers make offers in stock. Customers may cancel the offer or make another offer on the part of the Goods that are in stock.

Time until dispatch. Once Batteryfc.com receives an offer, Batteryfc.com will endeavour to dispatch the Goods as soon as reasonably practicable (which may be longer than 30 calendar days) to the address specified in the offer. Batteryfc.com will try to adhere to the estimated delivery dates but accepts no liability for failing to do so. Customer may not withdraw any offer due to a delay in delivery.
