1. Scope and Acceptance. These Terms and Conditions for Purchases of Services or Goods (“Terms and Conditions”) are a complete and binding agreement between Hyland Software, Inc., or one of its affiliates as identified as the purchaser (“Hyland”) and the supplier from which Hyland is making this purchase (“Supplier”). These Terms and Conditions cover Hyland’s purchase of: (a) software licenses, tangible goods, or any deliverables in the nature of intellectual property or work products developed specifically for Hyland by Supplier or any subcontractor of Supplier in the performance of services to Hyland (“Goods”); or (b) services (“Services”) reflected in an Order (as defined below). These Terms and Conditions are effective upon the first to occur of: (i) Supplier’s commencement of fulfillment of an Order; (ii) Supplier’s acceptance of an Order; or (iii) in accordance with the terms of another applicable agreement described in Section 2 below. An “Order” means a Hyland purchase order, a credit card transaction, or other order of Goods or Services from Hyland to Supplier that references these Terms and Conditions.
2. Relationship to Other Agreements. If Hyland and Supplier have both signed a written agreement on or before the date an Order is made by Hyland, which relates specifically to the Goods or Services covered by these Terms and Conditions and which is effective at the date the Order is placed, then the Order incorporates the provisions of that agreement. If any conflict exists or arises between the terms of the Order and the terms of that agreement, then the terms of that agreement will apply. If Hyland and Supplier are parties to more than one agreement described in the preceding sentence and the terms of those agreements have similar or contradictory terms, then the most favorable terms to Hyland will apply, except to the extent the result would be unconscionable or prohibited by law. No other, additional or different terms will supersede these Terms and Conditions.
3. Prices; Shipping Charges; Taxes; Payment Terms.
(a) All prices for Goods or Services covered by the Order are the prices included on the face of the Order.

(b) Prices are exclusive of shipping and handling charges and all other expenses incurred by Supplier or its subcontractors in providing Goods or Services and performing under the Order.

(c) Prices are exclusive of foreign, federal, state and local taxes or assessments. Hyland is not responsible for any taxes and assessments that Supplier is obligated to pay, including without limitation gross receipts or net income taxes, franchise taxes or property taxes.

(d) Terms of payment are net 60 days after Hyland’s receipt and acceptance of the Goods or Services and a correct and undisputed invoice. Payment does not constitute acceptance of the Goods or Services.

Supplier is responsible for any costs or expenses incurred by Supplier associated with researching, reporting on or correcting any invoice errors.
