Any amendments to these Terms for the supply of Products or Services must be approved by Lumify in writing in advance. Only these Terms (specifically excluding other terms and conditions which may be attached to, or incorporated in, a purchase order) form part of the agreement between the parties.

Although the quoted price is in Philippine Pesos, the total amount payable to Lumify Work Philippines includes taxes, duties and government charges imposed or levied in Philippines in connection with the supply of the Products and Services. The client must pay any VAT payable in connection with the supply and Lumify Work Philippines will issue a valid tax invoice where VAT is to be recovered.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the parties agree to exclude any terms which would otherwise be implied into these Terms by any statute. The liability of Lumify for a breach of a condition or warranty implied into these Terms by the Consumer Act of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 7394) is limited at the option of Lumify:

Lumify's aggregate liability, whether arising from breach of contract, negligence or any other tort, breach of warranty, under an indemnity, or statute, in equity or otherwise is limited to an amount equal to the total amount paid to Lumify for the relevant invoice under which the liability has arisen.

Nothing in clause 16 operates to limit Lumify's liability for:

  1. claims for death, personal injury or damage to tangible property; or

  2. claims for breach of a third party’s intellectual rights.

Lumify has no liability to the Client for any incidental, indirect, special or consequential loss or damage, or for loss of or corruption of data, loss of use, revenues, profits, goodwill, bargain, opportunities or anticipated savings, whether arising from breach of contract, negligence or any other tort, in equity or under an indemnity, warranty or otherwise, whether or not Lumify was aware of the possibility of such loss or damage.

  2. posting, three days after dispatch; and

  3. facsimile, on completion of complete and legible transmission.

No leniency, indulgence or extension of time granted by Lumify to the Client will prejudice any of Lumify’s rights in any way or constitute a waiver of any of Lumify's rights. If any of these Terms are for any reason declared to be or become unenforceable, invalid or illegal, the remaining Terms will remain in full force and effect.

These Terms are governed by the laws of Philippines and the parties agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Philippines.

These Terms, the applicable quotation and the payment constitute the entire agreement between the parties on the subject matter and supersede any previous understanding or agreement on that subject matter.
