STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS


  1. The client explicitly waives its own standard terms and conditions, even if these were drawn up after these standard terms and conditions. In order to be valid, any derogation must be expressly agreed to in advance in writing.
  2. The engagement and payment of IRIS ETHICS PTY LTD to provide any review services listed does NOT have any influence on the outcome of the review. The fees charged by IRIS ETHICS PTY LTD cover the costs of the review process, and not the decision. This includes cases where a review finding results in the rejection of an application.
  3. Our invoices are payable within 21 working days, unless another payment timeframe is indicated on either the invoice or the order. In the event of non-payment by the due date, IRIS ETHICS PTY LTD reserves the right to request a fixed interest payment amounting to 10% of the sum remaining due. IRIS ETHICS PTY LTD will be authorised to suspend any provision of services without prior warning in the event of late payment.
  4. If a payment is still outstanding more than sixty (60) days after the due payment date, IRIS ETHICS PTY LTD reserves the right to call on the services of a debt recovery company. All legal expenses will be payable by the client.
  5. Certain countries apply withholding at source on the amount of invoices, in accordance with their internal legislation. Any withholding at source will be paid by the client to the tax authorities. Under no circumstances can IRIS ETHICS PTY LTD become involved in costs related to a country's legislation. The amount of the invoice will therefore be due to IRIS ETHICS PTY LTD in its entirety and does not include any costs relating to the legislation of the country in which the client is located.
  6. IRIS ETHICS PTY LTD undertakes to do its best to supply performant services in due time in accordance with the agreed timeframes. However, none of its obligations can be considered as being an obligation to achieve results. 
  7. All our contractual relations will be governed exclusively by the laws of the state of Victoria, Australia.
  8. Nothing in the above supersedes any requirement or protection afforded by the laws of the state of Victoria, Australia, including remedies under consumer protection laws where applicable.
