Website Terms of Use
Effective date: [date]
1. About these terms
This website, www.rpm.com.ng], is operated by Rotation & Precision Machines Limited (“RPM”, “we”, “us”), whose registered office is at [address], Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria. By using the website you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use it.
If you use the website on behalf of a company, you confirm that you have authority to bind that company to these terms.
2. Who may use the website
The website is intended for businesses and professionals. You must be at least 18 years old to use it.
3. What the website offers
The website provides information about RPM, its products, solutions and partner brands. It also lets you request quotations, download resources, apply for jobs, subscribe to our newsletter, use our chatbot and, for clients, access the client portal. We may add, change or remove features at any time.
4. Product information and quotations
Product descriptions, specifications, images and documents on the website are for general information. Many come from the manufacturers and may change without notice. Images are illustrative. Prices and availability are not fixed on the website and are confirmed only in a quotation.
A request for a quotation is an invitation for us to make an offer. It is not an order, and it does not create a contract. A contract for the sale of goods or services is formed only when we issue a written quotation and the parties confirm it in line with [RPM’s terms of sale], which apply to every sale. Always confirm specifications, quantities and delivery terms in the quotation before you buy.
5. Partner Brands and Trademarks
RPM is an authorised distributor of [SKF, FUCHS, SMC, NORD Drivesystems, ELGI, Rema Tiptop and SNL]. Brand names, logos and product names belong to their owners. We show them to identify the products we supply. Their use on this website does not give you any right to use them, and it does not mean the brand owner endorses this website beyond the distribution relationship.
6. Intellectual Property
The website’s text, design, graphics, software and other content belong to RPM or its licensors and are protected by law. You may view the website and print or download pages and resources for your own business use. You may not copy, republish, sell or otherwise exploit the content without our written permission.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the website for any unlawful purpose or in breach of these terms;
- Try to gain unauthorised access to the website, its servers, the client portal or other users’ accounts;
- Use automated tools such as bots or scrapers to collect content or data without our written permission;
- Introduce viruses or other harmful code, or interfere with the website’s operation or security;
• submit false, misleading or spam enquiries, or impersonate another person or company; or
• test the website’s security without our written permission. - Â
8. Accounts and the Client Portal
If we give you client portal access, you must keep your login details confidential and are responsible for all activity under your account. Tell us at once if you suspect unauthorised use. Information in the portal is confidential and for the account holder’s use only. We may suspend or close an account that is misused or inactive. [Separate portal terms may apply.]
9. Comments and submissions
If you send us a comment, enquiry or other content, you confirm that it is lawful, accurate and does not infringe anyone’s rights. You allow us to use it to respond to you and to operate the website. We may remove content that breaks these terms.
10. Careers
Applying for a job through the website does not create an employment relationship or guarantee an interview. You confirm that the information in your application is accurate. We use application data as described in our Privacy Policy and [Careers Notice].
11. Chatbot and automated tools
Our chatbot [uses artificial intelligence] to answer common questions. Its answers are for general information and may be incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on them for engineering, safety, pricing or delivery decisions. Confirm these with our team in writing. Do not share confidential or sensitive information in the chat. You can ask to be passed to a member of our team.
12. Translation
The website offers automatic translation through [Google Translate]. Machine translation may be inaccurate. If a translation differs from the English text, the English text prevails.
13. Links and third-party content
The website may link to or embed content from other websites. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. A link is not an endorsement.
14. Privacy and Cookies
We handle personal data as described in our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, which form part of these terms.
15. Disclaimers
The website is provided “as is” and “as available”. We try to keep the information accurate and current, but we do not promise that it is complete, error-free or always available. Nothing on the website is professional engineering advice. Choosing, installing and operating any product is your responsibility and should be checked by a qualified engineer against the manufacturer’s data. These disclaimers apply as far as the law allows.
16. Limitation of Liability
To the extent the law allows, RPM is not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, loss of business or loss of data arising from your use of the website, and our total liability for any claim arising from its use is limited to [amount]. Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited. Supply of goods and services is governed by [RPM’s terms of sale], not by this clause.
17. Suspension and Termination
We may suspend or end your access to the website or portal at any time, without notice, if you break these terms or misuse the website.
18. Changes to the website and these terms
We may update the website and these terms from time to time. The effective date and version number at the top show the latest version. Your continued use of the website after a change means you accept the updated terms.
19. Governing Law and Disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. We will first try to settle any dispute by discussion. If that fails, [the courts of Lagos State have exclusive jurisdiction] [or: the dispute is referred to arbitration in Lagos]. If you use the website from outside Nigeria, you do so on your own initiative and must comply with your local laws. These terms do not remove any rights you have under mandatory local law.
20. General
These terms, together with the Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy and any applicable terms of sale, are the whole agreement between you and RPM about the website. If a provision is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force. If we do not enforce a right immediately, we have not given it up.
