Effective Date: 01 January 2026
These General Terms and Conditions of Sale ("Terms") govern the sale of goods by Multplx Ltd trading as QuietCase ("Supplier", "we", "us", or "our") to any purchaser ("Purchaser", "you", or "your"), including schools, businesses, and organizations. QuietCase is a trademarked name under Multplx Ltd. By placing an order or accepting delivery of any goods, you agree to be bound by these Terms. These Terms apply to all quotes, orders, and sales of our products ("Goods").
If a separate written agreement signed by both parties exists for the specific sale, its terms will prevail over these Terms to the extent of any inconsistency. These Terms supersede all prior understandings, negotiations, or communications, and any conflicting terms in your purchase order or other documents are expressly rejected. Fulfillment of your order does not constitute acceptance of your terms.
We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time, with changes effective upon posting on our website. Continued purchases after changes constitute acceptance.

3. Quotes and Orders
- Quotes specify prices, quantities, and descriptions of Goods and are valid for the period stated therein (or 30 days if unspecified). We may change prices or withdraw Quotes prior to accepting an Order.
