2. How to conclude a contract with us using this website  

These are the steps you need to take to conclude a contract with us: 
 
a. Make sure you have read and understand our terms It is your responsibility to read the legal terms on our website carefully and to raise any problems with us before you place your order. This includes these terms and conditions, our terms of use and our privacy policy. 
 
b. Browse our information This website contains information about our goods which you will need to know before you place your order including descriptions of our goods, current prices (including VAT) and delivery costs. 
 
The information about the goods on our website constitutes an “invitation to treat” and is not a contractual offer from us which you may accept. This means that we reserve the right to correct any errors in that information without liability to you. It also means that in no circumstances will we be contractually bound to supply you with goods on the basis of any incorrect information, even if that information is repeated in your order. 
 
c. Select the goods you wish to purchase If ordering from the UK, you can select any items you wish to purchase by clicking on the “add to basket” button. You will be taken to your shopping basket whenever you add a new item, but you can also view the contents of your shopping basket by clicking on the “shopping basket” button. The shopping basket screen lists your current selection of items with description, price and current subtotal. You can edit the contents of your basket and remove any input errors by removing items or changing quantities. 
 
d. Making a Purchase To purchase the items in your basket and proceed with your order using our secure online purchasing facility, click on the “purchase online” button on the shopping basket screen. You will then be transferred to our secure server to complete your order. 
 
If you would like to order goods from us but do not want to enter your credit/ debit card details on the web, you can pay for your order by cheque or over the phone by calling 0800 088 4540. We can only accept cheques denominated in pounds sterling and drawn on a UK bank. Cheques should be made payable to Draeger Safety UK Limited. Your order reference number should be marked clearly on the reverse side of the cheque. Paying by cheque will slow down the ordering process, as we cannot process your order until your cheque has been received and cleared. 
 
If you are an account customer, you will be required to enter your account details [when prompted]. You will be invoiced, your normal payment terms will apply and your invoice “Due Date” will be calculated on your invoice. Time for payment shall be of the essence. If you fail to pay the amount due on the Due Date, such amount shall bear interest from the Due Date until payment is made in full at 3% per annum over the National Westminster Bank plc base rate from time to time. 
 
You will also be asked to provide certain information we need to enable us to process your order such as your preferred delivery address and payment details. It is your responsibility to provide us with sufficient information to process you order. We may acknowledge receipt of your order on our website or by email. This is not our acceptance of your order, but confirmation that it has been received. 
 
e. Wait for acceptance of your order You may not assume we have accepted your order until we send you an acceptance by email. Only if and when you receive our acceptance will we have a binding contract between us. 
 
You may receive acknowledgement from our payment processor advising you whether or not your credit or debit card payment has been authorised. This acknowledgement relates to your payment only and is not our acceptance of your order. 
 
We will be entitled to refuse to accept your order if in our sole discretion we consider it necessary. In particular (save in respect of account customers) we must receive payment of the whole of the price for the goods that you order before your order can be accepted. If we refuse your order we will let you know as soon as we can. If we accept your order we will inform you without undue delay. 
 
Once we have entered into a contract with you we shall supply you with the items specified in your order in accordance with the terms of the contract.

The contract between us will consist of (1) these terms and conditions together with our terms of use and privacy policy, (2) your order and (3) our acceptance.
