Terms & Conditions
The following Standard Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) apply to transactions that do not have a written agreement duly executed by both parties. Under such agreement, these Terms & Conditions are the terms that govern the transaction and relationship between the parties.
These Terms provide PSA Worldwide, LLC (“Seller”) and you(“Purchaser”) with guidelines and stipulations regarding your order (“Order”) for all goods and/or services described on the face of the Order.
Acceptance and terms and conditions: Purchaser’s full or partial performance under this Order will constitute acceptance of these Terms. By accepting this Order, Purchaser agrees to be bound by, and comply with all Terms, supplements to the Terms, and all specifications and documents referred to in this Order. These Terms may be modified only by a written document signed by an authorized representative of Purchaser and Seller, respectively.
Sales Tax: Seller will collect sales tax as required by state laws as determined by the order shipping address. Tax exempt purchases will require appropriate documentation except when by agencies of the U.S. federal government. Seller will collect the simplified sellers use tax on taxable transactions delivered into Alabama and the tax will be remitted on the customer's behalf to the Alabama Department of Revenue. Seller's Alabama program account number is SSU-R012272907.
Default: Time is of the essence regarding this Order. Order will expire 90 days from date Purchaser accepts Order if Purchaser does not approve all related artwork for Order within this time period. Any amounts pre-paid for expired Orders will remain as a credit on Purchaser’s account. Purchaser may, by written notice of default to Seller: (a) terminate all or any part of this Order if Seller fails to perform, or fails to make progress so as to endanger performance of this Order in accordance with its terms, anddoes not cure such failure within a period of ten (10) days (or a longer period as Purchaser may authorize in writing), after receipt of notice from Purchaser specifying such failure; and (b) procure, on such terms as it deems appropriate, similar goods or services. As an alternative remedy, and in lieu of termination for default, Purchaser, may elect to extend the delivery schedule and/or waive other deficiencies in Seller’s performance, in which case an equitable reduction in the Order price may be negotiated. If Seller anticipates difficulty in complying with the required delivery date, or in meeting any requirements of this Order, Seller will promptly notify Purchaser in writing. If Seller does not comply with Purchaser’s delivery schedule, Purchaser may request delivery by expedited service and Seller must pay for charges resulting from the use of a premium transportation method. The rights and remedies of Purchaser provided in this section are not exclusive and are in addition to any rights and remedies provided by the Uniform Commercial Code, at law, at equity, or under this Order.
Invoices and Payment: Invoices shall be issued upon completion of services or shipment of goods and shall contain the Purchase Order Number, item numbers, description of goods or services, quantities, unit prices, and total purchase price. Each invoice must refer to one, and only one, purchase order. Payment by Purchaser shall be made within 30 days from the date of invoice, or other terms as agreed to by Seller and Purchaser.
Late Fee: A late fee of 1.5 percent (1.5%) per month of the Order price, or the maximum allowed by law, is payable on all overdue balances.
Crediting Late Payments: Payments received will be credited to late payment amounts first, then to unpaid balances.
Collection Expenses: Purchaser shall pay all collection or legal fees incurred by Seller as a result of late payments.
Withholding Delivery: Seller may withhold delivery and transfer of ownership of any goods or services if payments are not current, or if overdue invoices are not paid in full.
Inspection: Final acceptance or rejection of goods or services will be made within 30 days of delivery; failure to inspect and accept or reject goods or services, or failure to detect defects by inspection will relieve Seller from responsibility for goods or services that are not in conformity with this Order. Seller is not liable for errors resulting from incorrect information provided by Purchaser, including imprints, quantities, colors, product numbers, in‐hands dates, and shipping addresses. Goods rejected may be returned to the Seller at Seller’s expense. Payment made on rejected goods shall be promptly refunded by Seller; however, all custom Orders are final and no Payment will be refunded.
Warranties: Seller represents and warrants that: (a) all goods and services are free of any claim of any nature by any third person and that Seller will convey clear title to Purchaser; (b) all services are performed in a manner acceptable in the industry and in accordance with generally accepted standards, and all goods are free from defects, are fit for the particular purpose for which they are acquired; (c) all goods sold are of merchantable quality, free from defects in design, workmanship and materials, and are provided in strict accordance with the artwork provided and/or approved by Purchaser. All warranties of Seller herein or that are implied by law shall survive any inspection, delivery, acceptance, or payment by Purchaser.

Changes: Up to the point of production, Purchaser will have the right to make changes to this Order, including to drawings, designs, configurations, specifications, quantities, methods of shipment or packing, delivery schedules or location of delivery. If changes cause alteration in the cost of or the time required for performance of work under this Order, an equitable adjustment will be made in the contract price and/or delivery schedule; this Order will be modified in writing accordingly. Nothing in this Section, including any disagreement as to claimed adjustments, will excuse Seller from proceeding with this Order as changed.
