Terms of use of this web site and services

Introduction

This web site is operated by Contrado Imaging Ltd (Bags of Love [tm] or Photo Canvas are a trade names and are included in "we" or "us" or Contrado Imaging Ltd). We refer to the trade relationship as Trade Partnership. We refer to your account as Trade Account. We refer to you the business buying from Contrado Imaging Ltd as the Partner. We refer to the online buying system as the Trade Partner System or TPS.

The web site provides access to a number of services that may be used in accordance with these terms. The services include:
the ability to upload digital images to the web site or to email digital images to us so that we can process them on your behalf;
the ability to order products of images that have been uploaded to the web site or emailed or posted to us.
These terms govern the relationship between you and us. The web site (and the services provided through the web site) can only be used if you agree to these terms. You may only use the web site in accordance with these terms.
Only persons aged eighteen years or over may agree to these terms and use the web site or the services offered through the web site.
We may modify these terms at any time. We will post the modified terms on the web site so note that they may alter over time. We require that you revisit these terms when you use or return to this web site. The modified terms will come into effect as soon as they are posted on the web site and use of the web site (or of any services provided through the web site) after that point will be subject to the modified terms.

Note - Terms and Conditions of Sale are dealt with here in advance. By purchasing though our TPS (trade partner system) you are agreeing to the terms. Please be sure to reread these before the time of ordering if in any doubt. If you make a telephone order to us (based on the fact that you can't for whatever reason use the online web purchasing facility or use the order forms) then we alert you now to the fact that terms and conditions apply. Your provision of any payment details or prior account, would deem that the terms are accepted by you as a buyer.
Note - Payment - you are agreeing to pay us the prices given in the TPS pricelist or schedule. You are agreeing to paying these sums at point of sale with a credit or debit card or similar.
Note - All Product Sizes are pretty accurate, but due to the nature of making customised products by hand and one by one, there will be marginal size differences in the finished item to the sizes quoted on this web site. Occasionally we may substitute materials and adjust product design to accommodate production considerations in relation to supply or stock shortages.
Note - All Promotional Images of our products are good guides for what we make. We do not warrant that the final item will be exactly as per the images contained in this web site. There are often improvements made to products that are not visible in the promotion photographs, and there may be occasion when a stock component may be unavailable giving rise to the need to supply a variant of that part in the finished item.

Note - Delivery Times are stated in good faith. Wherever a delivery time is stated, it serves as a guide timeline and we do not warrant that the products will be with you on a specific date. We will do our best to meet these timelines but cannot guarantee it. Over 98% of our products are delivered inside our quoted timelines.
