1. Confirmation of Order / Acceptance of Quotation
A purchase order constitutes an offer by the Customer to purchase the Products in accordance with these Terms. Danfoss shall not be deemed to have accepted a purchase order until Customer has received written, including electronic text form, confirmation from Danfoss of the purchase order, at which point a binding agreement shall be formed ("Order"). Customer’s acceptance of a quotation or offer for Products given by Danfoss shall also constitute an Order and acceptance of these Terms. Unless otherwise stated any quotation is valid only for ninety (90) days. Danfoss reserves the right to update, change or make any corrections to quotations.

2. Terms of Delivery, Costs, and Title transfer
Unless otherwise agreed, the Products are delivered DAP (to the specified destination place) from, at Danfoss’ option, any of Danfoss’ factories or places of business. Unless otherwise agreed or expressly set out on quotation, order confirmation or invoice, Danfoss can charge separately for transport costs from factory or place of business to the destination. If Products are delivered on EXW or FCA delivery terms Danfoss has the right to dispatch the Products to Customer at the risk and expense of Customer by any transport method chosen by Danfoss. DAP or other agreed delivery terms shall be interpreted in accordance with the most recent Incoterms valid at the time an Order is made.

If Customer fails to take delivery of Products, Danfoss is entitled to claim payment for storage and handling and reserves the right to terminate the Order and claim damages.
Danfoss also reserves the right to make partial deliveries and to invoice separately for each delivery. Customer shall within two (2) business days from receipt of Products inform Danfoss of any visible transportation damage as well as any discrepancies in quantity or identity.

Danfoss may impose additional charges for the completion of forms, at Customer’s request, with respect to shipping. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Danfoss is not liable for freight charges to expedite shipment or because of Customer-initiated pick-up.

Retention on title:
Danfoss retains title to all Products delivered by Danfoss until receipt of payment for all amounts invoiced including interest and charges. In the event Customer re-sells the Products before title passes to Customer in accordance with this clause, Customer shall account to Danfoss for all of the proceeds of any resale, and prior to paying such proceeds to Danfoss, Customer shall hold the same in a fiduciary capacity keeping the same separate from its other money. Customer hereby assigns to Danfoss the portion of the Customer's claim against its end-customer to the extent the Products have been processed, transformed, or combined with other products sold by Customer to such end-customer. Danfoss shall be entitled to recover directly from Customer's end-customer any unpaid portion of the Product value owed by Customer. Upon request of Danfoss, Customer will identify the assigned claim and the debtor thereof to Danfoss, make all information and material required for debt collection available to Danfoss, and notify the third-party debtor of the assignment. If the Products are attached or otherwise levied upon, Customer shall draw attention to Danfoss’ title and immediately inform Danfoss of the attachment or levy. Danfoss shall be entitled to carry out all applications and registrations as it deems necessary for securing its title and Customer shall assist upon request. The retention of title shall not affect the passing of risk under applicable delivery terms.

3. Time of Delivery and Delay
Lead times are for reference only and are subject to change. Shipment or delivery dates confirmed by Danfoss in ordinary course of ordering process are estimates only. Design and/or specification change requirements from Customer are subject to review for possible adjustments to delivery. If a firm delivery date is separately agreed, and Danfoss does not deliver at the agreed time, Customer is entitled to request delivery in writing, and the parties will set a final, reasonable time limit for delivery. If delivery is not made within this time limit, Customer is entitled to rescind the Order and, subject to any disclaimers or limitations of liability in these Terms, claim compensation for its documented, direct loss. In no event can the compensation exceed an amount equivalent to ten (10)% of the price of the delayed Products. Any claim for compensation must be made within one (1) month from the final agreed date of delivery. No further claims can be made by Customer as a result of the delay.
