- Information About Us
Our site is operated by Andiq Limited (“we/us/our”). We are registered in England and Wales under company number 14530685 and our registered office is Unit 3, Northwest Business Park, Servia Hill, Leeds, LS6 2QH. Our VAT registration number is 455347479.
- Your Status
By placing an order through our site, you warrant that:
2.1 You are legally capable of entering into binding contracts; and
2.2 You are at least 18 years old.
- How the Contract is Formed between You and Us
3.1 Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a Product or Products. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by electronic notification at the end of the ordering process (the “Order Confirmation”). The contract between us (“Contract”) will only be formed when we send you the Order Confirmation. Once the Contract has been formed, the terms of the Contract cannot be varied without our prior written consent.
3.2 As the Products will have been made to your specification or personalized by you, you will not have any right to cancel the supply of any of the Products once we have commenced the contract (i.e., we have confirmed your order in writing by email). Once artwork has been uploaded, our automatic processes may make it very hard to cancel your order. You have a 15-minute window to make changes to orders placed on the website. Thereafter, if it is possible to make changes, we will need to charge for costs already incurred in production and administration of the order (subject to a minimum charge of £15+VAT).
- Material and Information Provided by You
4.1 Whenever you make use of a feature that allows you to upload material to our site, you must comply with the content standards set out in our Acceptable Use Policy. You warrant that any such material does comply with those standards, and you indemnify us for any breach of that warranty.
4.2 We shall not be required to print any matter which in our sole and final opinion is or may be of an illegal, libellous, or inappropriate nature or an infringement of the proprietary or other rights of any third party. This condition extends to material of an extreme or political nature.
4.3 We reserve the right to refuse to print any matter which in our opinion may be prejudicial or detrimental to the good of Andiq Limited and/or its agents.
4.4 We shall be indemnified by the customer in respect of any claims, costs, and expenses arising out of any libellous matter or any infringement of copyright, patent design, or any other proprietary or personal rights contained in any material printed for the customer and/or their agents. The indemnity shall extend to any amounts paid on legal advice in settlement of any claim.
4.5 In addition to complying with our Acceptable Use Policy, you agree that all material uploaded by you onto our site will be done at your own risk. You must retain a copy of all material you upload. We expressly exclude all liability for any uploaded material which is lost or damaged during or after the uploading process.
4.6 Failure to follow our site’s preparatory instructions for uploading your material may result in Products of poor quality. We accept no responsibility for poor quality Products in those circumstances. See our Technical Guide for further guidance and advice.

We have the right to disclose your identity to any third party claiming that any material uploaded by you to our site constitutes a violation of their rights.
4.8 We have the right to remove any material uploaded by you or not to fulfil any order if, in our opinion, such material does not comply with the content standards set out in our Acceptable Use Policy. You will receive a full refund of any sums already paid for an order we do not fulfil, less any administration charge or any additional charges on a time and materials basis applied to cover such additional work already carried out.
4.9 You agree only to provide someone else’s personal information if they have given you express consent to use it in respect of the Products you have ordered.
4.10 Personal information is processed and stored in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
4.11 We may delete your files stored by us which are inactive for an extended period of time without reference to you.

You accept that once you have approved the proof, the Products cannot be changed nor cancelled. We shall have no liability to you for any errors in the proof subsequently discovered by you.
6.2 Should you choose not to receive a proof (with either our File Check or Just Print services), we shall have no liability to you for any errors in the Product subsequently discovered by you.

6.3.1 Files supplied must be in PDF/x-1a format.
