1.2. By clicking the “Complete order” button on the order page, you confirm that you would like to purchase the Products in your cart (an “Order Request”). A binding agreement that ROLI will deliver the Products will not be formed between you and ROLI until you have paid the full amount due as set out in the Order Request and ROLI sends you an Order Confirmation with a Customer Order Number.

1.4. Only Products listed in ROLI’s Order Confirmation form part of that Contract. If you notice any inaccuracies or errors in your Order Confirmation or you have made any mistakes in the information that you provided, you must contact ROLI promptly upon receipt, ideally immediately, so that we have the opportunity to correct any mistake or clarify any misunderstanding before commencing delivery/performance.

1.5. If ROLI is unable to fulfil your order for any reason, we will notify you, and promptly return to you any payment received by us.

2. Right to Cancel Online Orders

4. Delivery and Ownership for Online Orders

4.1. We shall use all reasonable endeavors to deliver the Products to you. The times stated and your Delivery Date are only estimates and do not equate to actual delivery times. If you have ordered several Products at one time, the Products may be delivered on different Days. Delivery will not be of the essence unless previously agreed by us in writing. We will not be held liable for any delay in delivery caused by late settlement by the buyer of the remaining balance prior to dispatch or due to forces out of our control.

4.2. ROLI may not ship to your country. Reasons for non-shipment may include trade restrictions or lack of availability of courier service in your area. Please see the Delivery FAQs for details on availability of international shipping. If ROLI does not ship to your country, Please see the Delivery FAQs for details on availability of international shipping.

If redelivery is required, you will be held liable for any extra courier and insurance costs and expenses.

4.6. Title to the Products (except any Software included which is subject to the ROLI Terms of Use and End User Licence Agreement) will pass to you once ROLI receives payment in full, or when we deliver the Products to you (or your representative), whichever is later.

If the Contract is terminated before that passing of title in the Products occurs, we may recover any Products supplied to you and you agree to assist us in such circumstances.
