Terms and Conditions

Standard Terms and Conditions of Trading

• These Terms and Conditions apply (unless otherwise previously agreed in writing) to the supply of Goods by adventure+ to a Purchaser from time to time. Any supply of Goods by adventure+ to the Purchaser made after the date of acceptance of these Terms and Conditions is a supply pursuant to the supply agreement constituted by these Terms and Conditions and the relevant order accepted by adventure+ and any such supply does not give rise to a new or separate agreement.
• In these Terms and Conditions adventure+ means Adventure Playgrounds Pty Ltd trading as Adventure Plus Playgrounds and its related entities.

PURCHASER OBLIGATIONS

• The Purchaser or playground operator is responsible to ensure that any goods purchased are suitable for the intended purpose, and that due consideration is given to such matters including, but not limited to, the user age-group, applicable regulations, expected supervision and site characteristics. In rendering advice or submitting designs we will rely on information supplied by the Purchaser who has a duty of care to disclose any relevant matter prior to ordering and the Purchaser will make no claim whatever against adventure+ if failing to do so.
• It is the responsibility of the Purchaser to ensure that the equipment is in safe working order before allowing it to be used. The Purchaser is responsible to arrange all insurances and notify any relevant authorities and obtain any final approvals or permits relating to the project before allowing it to be used.
• Certificates of Standards Compliance will be issued on request. While every endeavour is made to anticipate potential hazards, adequate supervision is required when equipment is in use. The Purchaser acknowledges that an element of risk applies to all children’s play and he/she purchases and/or operates the equipment in acceptance of all such risks.
• It is the responsibility of the Purchaser to ensure that the equipment is in safe working order before allowing it to be used. For continued safety we recommend regular safety inspections as per the Owners’ Manual and the installation and maintenance of undersurfacing in accordance with Australian Standards.

QUOTATIONS AND ORDERS

• Quoted prices are only valid if in writing and expire 60 days from the date of quotation. adventure+ reserves the right to amend prices as necessary after this period and the price charged will be the price current at the time of supply unless otherwise agreed in writing. Unless specifically stated otherwise, all prices are ex-factory, and delivery and/or travel charges will apply on to both kit and installed goods.
• An order is binding on adventure+ when adventure+ receives an order to supply goods and/or services and either issues a written acknowledgement to the Purchaser or dispatches goods and/or provides services pursuant to that order. No order is binding on adventure+ until accepted by it.
• An acceptance of the order by adventure+ is then to be an acceptance of these Terms and Conditions by the Purchaser and these Terms and conditions will override any conditions contained in the Purchaser’s order.
• adventure+ reserves the right to reject any such order at its sole discretion or accept a part only of any order by notifying the Customer in writing or by delivering the Goods to the Customer.
• adventure+ reserves the right to cancel any such order should the Purchaser be in any breach of these conditions with respect to any such prior or subsequent order, and the Purchaser shall indemnify adventure+ against any loss or damages caused by such cancellation.
• An order which has been accepted in whole or in part by adventure+ cannot be cancelled by the Purchaser without obtaining the prior written approval of adventure+, which it may refuse in its absolute discretion.
• In the absence of a written order for the supply of goods and/or services, the Purchaser agrees that the invoice issued by adventure+ accurately replicates and represents the order as placed by the Purchaser.

If the goods are resold, or used in the manufacture of other goods and/or services and/or structures, the Purchaser shall act as fiduciary in the recovery of payment for the goods and/or services, segregating such proceeds for the account of adventure+ until payment is effected in full and the goods are always at the risk of the Purchaser. The Purchaser assigns to adventure+ any claims or rights to payments from the Purchaser’s debtors in order to enable adventure+ to make full recovery of any monies owed in respect of such goods and/or services supplied.
