  1. Termination for Convenience of Buyer.

Buyer reserves the right to terminate an Order, in whole or in part, for its sole convenience but doing so may incur restocking or other applicable fees based on the work already completed by the Seller, in whole or in part.

 

  1. Termination for Cause.

Buyer may also terminate an Order or any part thereof for cause in the event of any default by Norco or if Norco fails to comply with any of the terms and conditions of the Order.  Late deliveries, deliveries of products which are defective or do not conform to the Order and Norco’s failure to provide Buyer upon request with reasonable assurance of future performance shall constitute cause to terminate an Order.  In the event of termination for cause, Buyer shall not be liable to Norco for any damages.

 

  1. Changes.

Buyer shall have the right to submit a request in writing to make any changes to an Order submitted through the Site, including additions to and deletions from the quantities of items or services ordered or in the drawings, designs, specifications, packaging, time and place of delivery and method of transportation.  If any such change affects the delivery schedule or the amount to be paid by Buyer, Norco shall notify Buyer immediately and negotiate an adjustment.  Norco shall retain the right to make corrections to the Order at the time of fulfillment, including for, but not limited to, taxes and delivery fees. Norco will notify Buyer of any such changes at or before the time of delivery, at Norco’s discretion.

 

  1. Confidentiality; Advertising.

Norco shall consider all information furnished by Buyer to be confidential and shall not disclose any such information to any other person, or use such information itself for any purpose other than those outlined in our Privacy Policy, unless Norco obtains written permission from Buyer.  This paragraph shall apply to drawings, specifications or other documents prepared by Norco for Buyer in connection with an Order.  Norco shall not advertise or publish the fact that Buyer has contracted to purchase goods or services from Norco, nor shall any information relating to an Order be disclosed without Buyer’s written permission. 

 

  1. Insurance.

In the event that Norco’s obligations under an Order require or contemplate performance of services by Norco’s employees or persons under contract to Norco to be done on Buyer’s property, or property of Buyer’s customers, the persons doing such work shall not be considered employees of Buyer.  Norco shall maintain reasonable insurance coverage, including any workman’s compensation insurance required by applicable law.  Norco shall indemnify and hold Buyer harmless from any and all claims or liabilities arising out of its employees’ or contractor’s actions while on Buyer’s property, except to the extent that Buyer’s gross negligence or recklessness contributes to any such damages. 

 

 

  1. Warranty; Specifications.

Norco expressly warrants that all of the materials and goods covered by an Order, or other description or specification furnished by Buyer, shall, unless otherwise specified, be new and in accordance with such Order, description or specification, be free from defects in material and/or workmanship and merchantable and conform to any warranties that arise by implication, by law or by the conduct of the parties.  Norco hereby certifies that all materials and goods it delivers pursuant to an Order have been produced in compliance with all applicable requirements of Section 6, 7 and 12 of the Fair Labor Standards Act, as amended, and of regulations and orders of the Unites States Department of Labor issued under Section 14 thereof.

 

 

  1. Price Adjustments.

Norco makes every effort to communicate complete and accurate pricing.  However, in certain situations the final total cannot be fully calculated until the time of delivery.  Norco retains the right to amend an Order to include additional charges, including but not limited to shipping, packaging, labeling, custom duties, taxes, storage, insurance, boxing and crating. 

 

 

TERMS OF PAYMENT

 

  1. Fees and Finance Charges.

You agree to pay reasonable attorney and collection fees if your account is placed for collection or suit.

 

Balances remaining unpaid on any account after 30 days from the date of the Order are subject to a finance charge at a periodic rate equal to the larger of 1.75% per month (which is an annual percentage rate of 21% before compounding) or such lesser amount as allowed by applicable law.  Norco computes the finance charge by applying the periodic rate to the adjusted balance of your account. That balance is determined by taking the balance you owed at the end of the previous billing cycle and subtracting all payments and credits received during the present billing cycle. To avoid a finance charge, you must pay the new balance shown on your billing statement within 30 days immediately following the billing statement date.

 

  1. Recurring Payments.

For your convenience, you may opt to set up Recurring Payments by checking the box in the online form stating, “I would like to setup recurring payments.”

 

You can also stop Recurring Payments or Preauthorized Payments by calling Norco at (208) 577-5280, or emailing us at Billpay@norco-inc.com.  We must receive your request 5 business days or more before the payment is scheduled to be made.  If you choose to call, your payment stop request must still be received in writing within 5 business days of your call to formally opt out of this feature. 

 

  1. Liability for Failure to Stop Payment of Preauthorized or Reoccurring Payments.

If you request us to stop payment in accordance with the foregoing paragraph and we do not comply, we will refund to your account the amount processed in error.  We will not be liable for losses incurred in cases such as the following

  • you have insufficient funds in your account to make the payment;
  • your payment exceeds the credit limit on your overdraft or credit line; or
  • circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the stop payment to be made, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.

All payments must be made at least 5 days before the last day of the calendar month to ensure that the payment is applied before the next billing cycle.

 

  1. Statements and Receipt of Payment.

Your Norco statement will not list any payments made in full. These payment transactions should be reviewed on the statement issued by your bank or other financial institution. If you have any questions about one of these transactions, call or email us at (208) 577-5280 or Billpay@norco-inc.com.
