General

4.1 All our offers (in any form) are without obligation and can be withdrawn by us at any time, and in any case no later than 2 working days after acceptance. Unless expressly stated otherwise in writing, our offer expires 30 days after the offer date unless accepted by you. After that, the offer is no longer valid.

Note: An offer from us may also be included in a quotation, email, on our website, or in other communications. Always check carefully whether an offer is genuinely from us.

4.2 If the acceptance of our offer deviates only on minor points, as referred to in article 6:225 paragraph 2 of the Dutch Civil Code, no agreement is formed unless we expressly confirm otherwise in writing.

4.3 All deadlines or dates mentioned by us or agreed upon (including delivery, completion, issuance, or completion) are estimated target dates that do not bind us and are indicative only. Article 6:83 of the Dutch Civil Code does not apply to us, and default on our part will never occur without a (written) notice of default.

4.4 We may assume that any offer, acceptance, agreement, order, purchase, sale, transaction, payment, or other act made with or from your account, organization, data, or communication means or methods is done by you. Such actions are binding for you.

4.5 Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, you bear all costs and fees associated with the use of Products and Services and fulfilling your obligations to us.

4.6 If there is a contract for services between you and us within the meaning of article 7:400 paragraph 1 of the Dutch Civil Code, and we are the contractor, articles 7:401, 7:402, 7:403, 7:404, 7:408, and 7:409 of the Dutch Civil Code do not apply.

What We Do

5.1 We may offer, perform, provide, sell, deliver, implement, or install products and services, but we are not obliged to do so. We do not guarantee results and only offer, perform, provide, sell, deliver, implement, or install Products and Services under our terms and conditions.

5.2 We may, at our discretion, change, suspend, discontinue, or impose further conditions to the offer, delivery, availability or content or composition of certain Products and Services at any time without being liable. We may also, if we have good reason, suspend or not execute a transaction, without being liable. If legally allowed, we will inform you of the reason(s) upon request.

5.3 We aim to process transactions promptly. You agree and acknowledge that we are not liable if a transaction cannot be processed or is delayed for any reason. Where possible and legally allowed, we will inform you of the reason(s) for non-processing or any material delay in processing your transaction.

5.4 Certain Products and Services are offered or made available only online or on specific data carriers. Online Products and Services are only accessible remotely via the internet (or another data network). You are responsible for obtaining such access.

5.5 Products and Services are made available in a ready-to-use condition. Ready-to-use means that Products and Services are prepared for use by a reasonably acting, competent, skilled, and careful person who follows our advice, training, and instructions regarding the use of the Products and Services.

5.6 We do not guarantee that Products and Services are free from defects or operate without interruption. To the extend any Products and Services are made available, provided, implemented or installed, you accept those Products and Services in the condition they are at the time they are made available or provided, implemented or installed by us ( “as is, where is” and “as available,”) with all visible and hidden errors and defects.

 

Updates and Maintenance

6.1 We may at any time install, make available, provide or apply (temporary) improvements, updates, upgrades, repairs, modifications, programme diversions or troubleshooting restrictions with respect to any of the Products and Services, or perform maintenance or other work with respect to any of the Products and Services. We are under no obligation to do so and we do not need to inform you. If we do so, we will do so free of charge unless we agree otherwise with you. We may also repair, remedy or mitigate any faults, errors or defects at any time. If this involves costs that you have to pay, we will only carry out the work after your agreement.
Note: In connection with all of the foregoing under clause 6.1 ‘updates and maintenance,’ you may temporarily be unable to use all or part of the Products and Services in whole or in part, or the Products and Services may not perform as they should. We will then not be liable or liable to you for damages and you will not be entitled to any compensation.

6.2 We may continue the Products and Services with the enhancements, updates, upgrades, repairs, modifications, programme diversions or problem-eliminating restrictions referred to above under clause 6.1 ‘updates and maintenance.’ You therefore irrevocably and unconditionally accept such enhancements, updates, upgrades, repairs, modifications, programme redirects or problem-eliminating restrictions in advance, including newer versions of the Products and Services that may not have the same functionalities as any previous version.
Note: As a result of the foregoing under clause 6.2 ‘progress,’ you may need to update or change your hardware, systems, software, devices, infrastructure or other facilities. You accept updates, upgrades, repairs, modifications, and problem-solving limitations as part of ongoing product and service improvements.
