6. Customer Support

As part of the Services, you may be offered customer support. Please contact us at Admin@thebarsys.com for assistance.

7. Delivery and Shipping

7.1           All orders are subject to acceptance by Barsys, and any rejection of an order shall be made in Barsys’s sole discretion.  If you have been charged for an order that is subsequently rejected by Barsys, Basys will refund the amount of that order to you, by a method chosen by Barsys in its sole and reasonable discretion.

7.2           Barsys will make reasonable efforts to accommodate your delivery requirements; however, delivery is subject to availability of resources at the time of order placement.  Barsys shall therefore not be liable in any way for any delay or damage arising from Barsys's failure to meet your delivery requirements or any delivery dates.

7.3           All shipments shall be made from the facilities of Barsys or its distribution center.  Risk of loss for products shall pass to you upon delivery to the carrier, and you are responsible for pursuing the carrier for any loss occurring in transit.

7.4           You are responsible for examining all shipments promptly upon receipt.  If you discover any shortages or incorrect products in the shipment, you must notify Barsys immediately. Please check the order carefully, as no claim for shortages or deficiencies will be accepted by Barsys after ten (10) days from delivery of the products.

8. Pricing and Payment

8.1           All prices are in USD unless otherwise expressly stated in writing.  Where you are making payment in a currency other than USD, the currency exchange rate that applies is the one in effect at the time your payment is processed, not the one that was in effect on the date that you placed your order. Barsys reserves the right to change its standard prices without notice.

8.2           Prices are exclusive of, and you will pay: (a) all applicable federal, state, provincial and local taxes (including all applicable sales, use, consumption, goods and service, value added, and withholding taxes), unless you have provided Barsys with an appropriate tax exemption certificate or number, and (b) all fees and charges related to shipping, customs, duties and brokerage.  Barsys may charge sales tax for sales of Products.  These taxes and fees will be charged at time of shipment of the Product where the Product is a pre-order, and at time of ordering for commercially available Product.

8.3           If your order is a pre-order for Product that is not yet available, you will be charged the Product price at the time of shipping, and will be charged applicable taxes and shipping and handling fees at the time that the Product is shipped to you.  You may not cancel and receive a refund on any such pre-order unless Barsys fails to ship the Product to you within 36 months of your placement of the pre-order.  Barsys may utilize a payment processor to manage orders and payments.  Your credit card statement may therefore reflect a third party name in relation to your order.

8.4           Where your credit card is rejected for any reason, you will be responsible for any fees and charges associated with such rejection, as well as interest on the amount owing.  Interest will be the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, commencing on the date that your credit card was rejected.  Barsys may, in its sole discretion, delay shipment of, or cancel, your Product order where your credit card or other payment information is rejected.

9. Returns

Products may be returned to Barsys within thirty (30) days of delivery for credit, if the Products are unused, in a new and intact condition, and in their original containers, subject to Barsys’s return procedures.  Shipping of all returns is your responsibility and at your sole expense.  Please consult Barsys for details about its return procedures.  You acknowledge that this 30 day return policy is considered in satisfaction of applicable statutory "withdrawal rights" or "cooling off periods", and you waive all such statutory rights.

10. Cancellation and Termination

Barsys may reject any orders upon written notice to you, and may also stop any Products in transit to you and suspend the delivery of Products to you without penalty, if: (a) you commit a material breach of these Terms and fail to remedy such breach within thirty (30) days of receiving notice of such breach, or (b) you become involved in any legal proceeding concerning your solvency, or have a receiver or administrator appointed of any of your assets.
