Purchase Order Terms & Conditions

  1. Terms of Agreement
    1. These Terms are an integral part of the Purchase Order (“PO”). Any conflicts between these Terms and those of a Purchase Order or Statement of Work shall be resolved in accordance with Section 17 herein. The Purchase Order, together with these terms and conditions, and any attachments and exhibits, specifications, drawings, notes, instructions and other information, whether physically attached or incorporated by reference (collectively the “Purchase Order” or “PO”), constitutes the entire and exclusive agreement between the respective Infinity entity (Infinity Global Europe B.V. or Infinity Global Inc.) identified as buyer in the Purchase Order (“Buyer”) and the supplier (“Supplier”) as identified in the Purchase Order governing Buyer’s purchase of goods and/or services identified in the Purchase Order. Buyer’s submission of the Purchase Order is conditioned on Supplier’s agreement that any terms different from or in addition to the terms of the Purchase Order, whether communicated orally or contained in any purchase order confirmation, invoice, acknowledgement, release, acceptance or other written correspondence, irrespective of the timing, shall not form a part of the Purchase Order, even if Supplier purports to condition its acceptance of the Purchase Order on Buyer’s agreement to such different or additional terms. Supplier’s electronic acceptance, acknowledgement of this Purchase Order, or commencement of performance constitutes Supplier’s acceptance of these terms and conditions. The Purchase Order does not constitute Buyer’s firm offer and may be revoked by Buyer at any time prior to acceptance.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a master agreement or memorandum of understanding covering procurement of the Products or Work described in the Purchase Order exists between Supplier and Buyer, the terms of such master agreement shall prevail over any inconsistent terms herein
