Retention of Title
Ownership of all goods supplied remains with Sentry Water Filters until full payment has been received and cleared. If any payment is declined, cancelled, reversed, or otherwise not honoured for any reason, title to the goods does not pass to the purchaser. In such circumstances, Sentry Water Filters retains the right to request the immediate return of the goods, and the purchaser agrees to make the goods available for collection or to return them at their own cost. No installation or use of the goods transfers ownership until payment has been fully satisfied.
