Terms & Conditions
Entire Agreement
This Supply and Payment Terms and Conditions, in conjunction with any credit application, if applicable, and accepted price quote, sets forth the entire understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreement or understanding between the parties, whether written or oral. An order is only deemed to have legal effect if acknowledged in writing by Vispronet LLC (hereinafter “Vispronet”) management. Any agreements or changes to orders between customers and Vispronet employees are only effective when acknowledged in writing by Vispronet management.
Pricing
All of our pricing is charged in U.S. dollars. All prices are quoted net and do not including any state or federal tax. The quoted prices are subject to supply of all necessary customer designs which must be graphically processed in compliance with any instructions provided by Vispronet. The current hourly rate shall be charged for any requested amendments or necessary graphical processing. Vispronet reserves the right to amend prices should there be an increase in material or wage costs, between order and delivery. If the price increase is more than 5% of the total original price, the customer has the right to rescind the contract within 14 days of receipt of notice of the price increase.
Customer's Obligations
If a specific delivery date has been agreed upon, the customer must ensure that Vispronet receives in sufficient time, any designs and computer files required for processing the order. In supplying printed data, the customer warrants that there is no infringement of copyrights, trademark rights or other protected property rights of third parties. In the event customer has infringed upon a third parties’ copyright, trademark or other protected property rights, customer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Vispronet from any and all claims arising out of their infringement. All drawings, drafts, provisional templates, films, computer files or other design material prepared by Vispronet for the processing of the order shall remain the property of Vispronet and may only be passed on to third parties on approval from Vispronet. Materials relating to the order will be kept for 2 years in the form of films and/or drawings. Subsequent orders will be subject to a charge of the then current hourly rates to reactivate these designs.
Customers Designs, Deviations, Excess or Short Supply
If items are to be produced using customer designs, Vispronet will reproduce such designs as precisely as possible. Vispronet reserves the right to make minor deviations in color or representation that may result from technical limitations of textile printing and from differing colors on different types of background materials. Such deviations do not constitute grounds for canceling an order, refusing delivery, or refusing to make payment. This also applies to deviations between pre production samples and series production which are unavoidable. Customer further agrees to accept any customary excess or short supply by up to 10% in respect to items made to order. The customers account will be adjusted accordingly at the point of shipping. If an exact quantity is required, there will be a price premium applied to the order. All digitally printed orders will receive exact quantities. Deviations in width and length by +/- 7% are unavoidable as a result of technical production procedures and do not constitute grounds for canceling an order, refusing delivery, or refusing to make payment.
Shipment/Supply
Products that qualify for the free standard shipping promo will receive free ground shipping to the contiguous United States (excludes AK, HI, and PR). Shipping discount will apply at checkout.
For international shipments, customs, duties, and fees are the responsibility of the customer and are not included. We will not be liable for clearance delays.
The supply periods quoted and prescribed are non-binding, unless Vispronet has given an express written guarantee that the delivery period will be observed. The quoted supply date usually refers to the date of shipment from Vispronet or manufacturing facility. If the supply date is exceeded, the customer agrees to an extension period of 30 days for completion and subsequent performance of the contract and cannot rescind the contract or cancel the order, or seek damages until the extension period has passed. The scope of such damages is set in paragraph 9. All goods are shipped at the expense and risk of the customer. All transportation and packaging costs will be paid by the customer. Vispronet shall not be liable if there are any delays in production or supply or if such production or supply becomes impossible for reasons outside Vispronet’s control, such as customer’s failure to timely supply necessary materials or drawings. Vispronet reserves the right to make partial deliveries, and invoice for the items actually delivered. We reserve the right to adjust shipping methods based on production volume to meet your delivery date without refunding production or shipping charges.
Supply of Flagpoles & Large Pictures
When supplying flagpoles, Vispronet accepts no responsibility for the necessary technical requirements being met or for associated hardware. Customer is responsible to erect flagpoles, and have the supplies and knowledge to do the same. Large fabric pictures are subject to varying weather influences, especially when positioned outside. Fabrication and erection technology have a decisive influence on proper and safe use of the product. Consultation of a project manager with knowledge of local conditions is always recommended. Vispronet’s product warranty is limited to resistance to tearing, light fastness and washability under laboratory conditions. For product surfaces less than 25 square meters, the customer should request Vispronet’s production and erection recommendations before placing an order. For product surfaces in excess of 25 square meters, the customer must always arrange for planning work to be done prior to placing an order. Vispronet will not be liable for any failure of the customer to consider specific application conditions and/or improper erection/use.

The warranty does not cover usual wear and tear. Upon timely notification of a legitimate complaint, Vispronet reserves the right to either remedy the defect or supply a replacement within 14 days of receipt of the returned goods. In such case, Vispronet will pay the necessary shipping costs.

BEWARE OF COUNTERFEIT PRODUCTS
As a leading producer of creative and innovative products such as banner stands, flags, banners, fence wraps, tents, signs, backdrops and advertising umbrellas, our products are often counterfeited, sold at dramatically reduced prices and often of poor and, in some cases, unsafe quality.
We have a legal team dedicated to identifying counterfeit products and pursuing legal action against unauthorized sellers. If you would like to support our efforts and report a suspected counterfeit product, please contact us at 717-241-0888 or info@vispronet.com.
