Company and its affiliates provide the Site to you (the “user”, “you”, and “your”, as applicable) for the purpose of purchasing products and services and subject to your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. This version of these Terms replaces and supersedes any prior terms of use applicable to the Site. Company and you may be referenced individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”

If no such limitations are specified, Company shall not be held responsible for incompatibility of the goods and services due to changes in feedwater/substance quality specifications or site conditions nor for incompatibility with actual space or design limitations, which were not initially disclosed by you but become apparent at a later date.

For services to be accurate and goods to work as intended, you must fulfill the following obligations (“Obligations”): (a) provide Company complete and accurate information and data relevant to the scope of work to be provided, such as information related to your site conditions, systems, related equipment and processes, feedwater, or other substances to be treated or measured with the goods, including any hidden, unapparent, or changing conditions that may affect the effectiveness of the goods; (b) operate all related systems and the goods within the agreed to control parameters or, if none, within industry customary operating conditions; (c) maintain all related systems and goods in good operating condition and repair; and (d) maintain and handle goods in a proper and safe manner.

You are solely responsible for the operation of your systems, including ensuring that the systems are operated and maintained properly and comply with all laws, rules, regulations, license conditions, and orders.

You shall not sell or permit the use of the goods in connection with any nuclear installation or activity without the prior written consent of the Company. If, in breach of these Terms, any such use occurs, Company (including its parent, affiliates, suppliers, and subcontractors) disclaims all liability for any nuclear or other damage, injury, or contamination, and, in addition to any other rights of Company, you shall indemnify and hold Company (including its parent, affiliates, suppliers, and subcontractors) harmless against all such liability.

If any part of the goods cannot be delivered when ready due to any cause not attributable to Company, you shall designate an alternate storage location, and Company shall ship such goods to storage. Title and risk of loss shall thereupon pass to Buyer, and amounts payable to Company upon delivery or shipment shall be paid by you along with expenses incurred by Company.
