All of such nonbinding terms are hereby rejected by both parties.

- By placing an Order, You authorize OnSpec Parts to use Your trademarks, logos, name or signs for marketing purposes. This means that OnSpec Parts may mention You as a customer of OnSpec Parts on our website and in other promotional material such as advertising, press releases, interviews, promotional materials or presentations. We will not use Your name if You are a natural person, and the substantive content provided by You continues to be governed by the confidentiality clauses in these Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale.
- Your representations
- You represent and warrant that (i) You have the full right and authority to provide us with all data (including 3D CAD data), documentation, drawings and specifications, and (ii) You are authorized to grant the license referred to in Section 9, and (iii) the Order, and the production, shipping, sale and use of the Parts or tooling by us, does not (a) violate, misappropriate or infringe any intellectual party rights (including but not limited to any copyright, patent, design right, trademark, trade secret or any other proprietary rights) of any third party rights or (b) violate any applicable laws.
- You represent and warrant that You are authorized to place the Order and that You are able to conclude legally binding agreements. Orders on OnSpec Parts can only be placed by individuals who are 18 years or older who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law.

- OnSpec Parts maintains operations outside of the United States, employs non-U.S. persons, and has non-U.S. printing and manufacturing partners. Therefore, OnSpec Parts relies entirely on its customers to provide accurate information for purposes of compliance with applicable export control laws. It is the customer’s responsibility to determine and provide the appropriate export classification for the products and related technology and software to be provided to OnSpec Parts . The export classification indicates whether the product and related technologies are controlled, the relevant jurisdiction or jurisdictions, when an export license is required, and whether the product and technology qualify for a license exception. An incorrect classification could result in export control violations, which could in turn lead to significant fines and other sanctions. Importantly, OnSpec Parts cannot accept any technical data or drawings that are controlled by the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (“ITAR”) or are subject to the Export Administration Regulations (“EAR”) and are controlled for any reasons other than Anti-Terrorism.
