2.       Order and acceptance
 
         An order can only be made on-line using the Website www.scansolutions.co.uk. by following the instructions given on the Website. We must receive payment in full before your order can be accepted and your order constitutes an offer to us to purchase our goods described in your order.
 
         After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note this does not mean your order has been accepted. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm such acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms the goods have been dispatched. 
 
3.       Your contract with us
 
         Our acceptance of your order forms a legally binding contract between us and will only be formed when we send you the despatch confirmation. The contract is binding on you and us and on our respective successors and assigns. You may not transfer, assign, charge or otherwise dispose of a contract, or any of your rights or obligations arising under it, without our prior written consent. We may transfer, assign, charge, sub-contract or otherwise dispose of a contract, or any of our rights or obligations arising under it, at any time during the term of the contract.
