Warranty

INTRODUCTION

The following is a summary of your product warranty. Full details of the warranty, together with

important exclusions and limitations, are contained in the terms and conditions (another copy of which

can be provided upon request) which apply to your purchase.

The following definitions apply to this summary:

“Spinlock” and “Company” means Spinlock Limited a company incorporated and registered in England

with company number 00943480.

“Goods” means the products, articles or things which you have purchased from the Company.

Spinlock warrants to you (the buyer) that the Goods are to be free of defects in materials and

workmanship for the Warranty Period (as defined below).. In the case of such a defect, the Company will

either repair or replace the Goods concerned but such obligation to repair or replace is the limit of the

Company’s liability under its warranty.

i) The Warranty Period will be 5 years from date of purchase in respect of hardware and 2 years from

date of purchase of Deckware provided that in the case of the ‘Deckvest’ product the 2 year period can

be extended to 5 years by you registering the purchase of the ‘Deckvest ‘product on the Company’s

website within 30 days of purchase. These warranty periods are reduced to 1 year from date of purchase

for any Goods used (i) in professional or semi-professional racing applications, (ii) for military purposes or

(iii) outside of leisure sailing.

ii) Determination of the suitability or fitness of the Goods for the purpose contemplated by you in

purchasing the goods remains your sole responsibility and the Company does not give any warranty in

connection with such suitability or fitness.

iii) The Company shall not have liability under the warranty for wear and tear, corrosion or ultra violet

degradation or if the Goods:

a) are used for any application for which they were not designed;

b) are defective as a result of you failing to follow the Company’s oral or written instructions as to the

installation, storage, commissioning and use of the Goods;

c) are incorrectly maintained or not maintained at all;

d) are used in conditions that exceed the performance specification stated by the Company for those

Goods;

e) are damaged as a result of wilful damage, by accident, by negligence by you or a third party or due to

use in abnormal conditions;

f) are altered or modified in any way;

g) are serviced by anyone other than an authorised representative of the Company (unless such service

meets the Company’s stated guidelines and standards for service of the Goods concerned)

iii) Any Goods subject to a warranty claim must be returned to the Company for inspection unless we

notify you to the contrary in writing.

iv) The Company are not liable for any shipping or installation labour charge associated with any warranty

claim.

v) This warranty does not affect your statutory rights as a consumer.

vi) You should note that certain environmental elements such as salt, sand, moisture and chemicals may

considerably accelerate wear of certain of the Goods. In exceptional circumstances, wear or damage

could occur on the first use of the Goods which would reduce the lifetime of the Goods to that single use.

All warranties conditions or terms which may be implied by law or custom are expressly excluded from

any contract between us to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Where the applicable law does

not permit an implied warranty to be excluded, then such warranty shall, if permitted by such law, be

limited to a period of one year.

Spinlock will not be liable, in contract or tort (including, without limitation, negligence), or breach of

statutory duty or in respect of pre-contract or other representations (other than fraudulent

misrepresentations) or otherwise for any of the following types of loss or damage suffered or incurred by

you arising out of or in connection with the use of this Website or the sale or supply by Spinlock of goods

or services to you:

a) loss of income or revenue;

b) loss of profits (whether direct or indirect);

c) loss of contracts, business or anticipated savings;

d) loss of or harm to goodwill or reputation; or

e) any special, consequential or indirect losses or damages not covered by the preceding paragraphs.

To the extent that Spinlock’s liability to you is not excluded by the preceding paragraphs, Spinlock’s

liability to you, in contract or tort (including, without limitation, negligence), or breach of statutory duty

or in respect of pre-contract or other representations (other than fraudulent misrepresentations) or

otherwise for any loss or damage suffered or incurred by you arising out of or in connection with the use

of Spinlock’s Website or the sale or supply by us of goods or services to you will be limited to the

purchase price of the goods or services to which such loss or damage relates or £1,000,000 (whichever is

the greater).

If any clause of our terms and conditions (including the warranty) is held by any competent authority to

be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, the validity of the other clauses of the other provisions of

the terms and conditions and the remainder of the clause in question shall not be affected (including the

warranty and all relevant exclusion and limitation provisions).

This warranty gives specific legal rights, in addition to other individual legal rights which may vary

according to country. Spinlock reserve the right to alter the design and specification of any product

without prior notice.
