1. Information about us

Zen Software Limited (we) is registered in England and Wales under company number 04097823 and with our registered office at Sandbrook Park, Sandbrook Way, Rochdale, OL11 1RY.

2. How the contract is formed between you and us

2.1 After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us (with a link to an invoice) by way of acknowledgment that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy one or more Product(s). All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that contains the Product licence key (the Licence Key Confirmation). The contract between us (Contract) will only be formed when we send you the Licence Key Confirmation.

2.2 The Contract will relate only to those Products whose licence key we have confirmed in the Licence Key Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other Products which may have been part of your order until the licence key of such Products has been confirmed in a separate Licence Key Confirmation.

3. Availability and Delivery

3.1 The Licence Key Confirmation will be emailed to you within a reasonable time of receipt of payment. This will normally be within 15 minutes if payment is submitted online. If you have not received your Licence Key Confirmation within one working day of payment being received by us, please contact us and we will resolve the issue. For the avoidance of doubt, where payment is made by cheque, "payment being received by us" means our receipt of cleared funds; not our receipt of the cheque.

3.2 The Products are available for download on our website. If you have received a Licence Key Confirmation for a given Product and, for whatever reason, you are unable to download that Product, please contact us and we will resolve the issue.

4. Price, payment, refunds and discounts

4.1 The price of any Products will be as quoted on our site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error and these prices exclude VAT. Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you a Licence Key Confirmation. Payment shall be made in full prior to delivery and by such methods that are indicated on our site or by any other method expressly agreed by us.

4.2 When you select payment of an order by BACS it is your responsibility to meet all bank charges (if any) including without limitation our bank charges in respect of international payments to ensure that we receive the full invoice amount.

4.3 Once an order has been accepted changes or refunds cannot be made. We highly recommend that you make full use of the free trial of the Products(s) available to ensure that it meets your requirements and operates in your environment.
