General Terms & Conditions

Article 1 – Scope

These Terms & Conditions apply to every offer, every quotation and every agreement concluded regarding products and/or services offered by us.

These Terms & Conditions apply to the exclusion of the general terms and conditions of the Customer.

Article 2 – Offers

Our offers are purely indicative and non-binding and expire definitively if they are not accepted by the Customer within 5 calendar days. Offers only become legally valid as an agreement through timely signing of the offer by the Customer and by us. We also reserve the right to refuse certain assignments without giving reasons.

Article 3 – Price and payment

The price for our goods/services is that stated on the quotation.

All our invoices are payable within 7 days of receipt, unless the quotation specifies a different due date. If we request an advance payment, we will only commence our activities after receipt of the advance payment.

For any delay in payment, the Customer is automatically and without prior notice of default liable for default interest of 5% per month started, whereby each month started counts as a full month, and this without prejudice to any compensation and costs. Also automatically and without prior notice of default, a fixed compensation is due amounting to 10% of the invoice amount with a minimum of 250 euros as a penalty clause, this without prior notice of default and in addition to the principal sum, the default interest, collection, reminder, prosecution costs and expenses due to loss of time and judicial or legal costs. This penalty clause does not affect the obligation to pay the agreed default interest.

Disputes must be notified to us by registered mail within five working days after sending the invoice on pain of inadmissibility.

Article 4 - Duration of the agreement and termination

Our agreements can be entered into as described in our quotations. The agreement can be terminated unilaterally by us at any time and without judicial intervention if the Customer is in a state of bankruptcy or judicial agreement or if the customer does not pay his invoices.

Article 5 – Intellectual property rights

Our website, logos, texts, photos, names and in general all our communication are protected by intellectual property rights which lie either with us, or with our suppliers or other right holders.

Intellectual property rights are understood to mean patent, copyright, trademark, design and model rights and/or other (intellectual property) rights, including patentable and/or non-patentable technical and/or commercial know-how, methods and concepts.

It is forbidden to use and/or make changes to the intellectual property rights as described in this article. For example, the customer may not copy or reproduce our drawings, photos, names, texts, logos, color combinations, etc. without our prior and express written permission.

Article 6 – Confidentiality and Privacy

We are responsible for the processing of your personal data and process it in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation;

Article 7 – Liability

We are not liable except in case of intent or gross fault. Moreover, we are not liable for any direct or indirect damage (such as consequential damage, lost profit, missed savings or damage due to business stagnation) for which we have not expressly determined our liability in these terms. Our liability will in all cases be limited to the amount of the price agreed for that order (excl. VAT).

We do everything in our power to provide access to the website 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. Given the technical characteristics of the internet and of the computer resources and given the need to carry out periodic maintenance, update or upgrade work, we cannot, however, guarantee uninterrupted access and service. In case of normally acceptable interruption or disruption of access or service, we do everything in our power to remedy this within as short a period as possible. Such normally acceptable interruptions or disruptions are inherent to service provision via the internet and cannot be considered as shortcomings.

Article 8 - Force majeure

In case of force majeure, we are not obliged to fulfill our obligations. In that case, we can either suspend our obligations for the duration of the force majeure, or definitively dissolve the agreement.

Force majeure is any circumstance outside our will and control that prevents the fulfillment of our obligations in whole or in part. This includes but is not limited to: strikes, unexpected traffic jams, accidents on European roads, fire, business disruptions, power outages, disruptions in a (telecommunications) network or connection or used communication systems and/or the unavailability of the website at any time, non-delivery or untimely delivery by suppliers or other engaged third parties,…

Article 9 – Nullity and completeness

These Terms & Conditions constitute the complete agreement between the customer and us, with regard to the matter contained therein.

If one or more provisions of these Terms & Conditions would at any time be wholly or partly unlawful, null or unenforceable for any other reason, then this clause will be deemed to be separable from these Terms & Conditions and will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.

Article 10 - Jurisdiction and applicable law

Belgian law applies to all disputes related to or arising from our offers and/or agreements. In case of disputes or disputes, only the courts of the judicial district of our registered office have jurisdiction.

If in addition to these general terms and conditions, additional special conditions also apply, the above also applies to those special conditions. If our general terms and conditions would conflict with those special conditions, you as a consumer can always invoke the most favorable text in your favor.

Article 3 Our Offer and your order

If an offer has only a limited validity period or is subject to certain conditions, we expressly state this in our offer.

We always describe as completely and accurately as possible what we sell to you and how the ordering process will proceed. The description is in any case sufficiently detailed to allow you to make a good assessment. If we use images, these are a truthful representation of the goods and/or services offered. However, mistakes happen and if we have clearly made a mistake, we are not obliged to deliver to you anyway.

Your order is complete and the agreement between us is final as soon as we confirm your order by email and as soon as we have received approval from the card issuer for your payment transaction with credit or debit cards. We accept . If the issuer of your card refuses to agree to your payment to us, we cannot be held responsible for delays in delivery and/or non-delivery of your order.

Article 4 Right of withdrawal

If you buy goods from us, you have the right to inform us of your decision to withdraw from the agreement within 14 days from delivery. After that, you must return the goods within 14 calendar days (you pay the shipping costs for this yourself). Upon receipt, we will refund you the full purchase price with the same payment method you used to pay.

The direct costs of returning the goods are therefore at your expense. We will indicate what the cost price is or make an estimate, if this cannot reasonably be calculated in advance. If the goods cannot be returned by post, we will come to pick them up from you and you will not be charged for this.

We may wait with refund until we have received the goods back or until you have shown that you have returned the goods, whichever comes first.

During the first 14 days after delivery, we expect you to handle the order and packaging carefully. If you still want to be able to return the goods as described above, you may only unpack or use them to the extent necessary to assess whether you wish to keep the item. Returned goods may be tested, but may not be used. If you return the goods, this must if possible be done together with the original packaging, with all delivered accessories and in the original state and packaging and taking into account our instructions below.

Article 5 The price

During the period we mention in our offer, our prices do not change, except for price changes as a result of changes in VAT rates.

In addition, with regard to the delivery of goods, we apply the legal minimum warranty period of two years if the good is not in conformity with the order placed. This means that in case of defects or defects in the good up to 2 years after delivery, this good will be repaired or replaced free of charge. As far as this is possible and reasonable, you have the choice between repair or replacement. Only if the repair or replacement is excessive or impossible or cannot be carried out within a reasonable period, you have the right to demand a price reduction or the dissolution of the sales agreement.

Article 8 Delivery and execution

If the goods delivered by us were damaged during transport, do not correspond to the items listed on the delivery note or do not correspond to the items you ordered, you must report this as soon as possible and certainly within 3 days and return the items to us within 14 calendar days of receipt. We cannot be held responsible for any consequential damage due to late delivery or non-delivery by the carrier appointed by the company. Our liability remains limited in such cases to the value of the items that are shown not to have been received by the customer.

Article 9 Duration

The Consumer can terminate an agreement entered into for an indefinite period at any time in compliance with the agreed termination rules and a notice period of at most one month.

An agreement entered into for a definite period has a term of a maximum of two years.

If it has been agreed in a goods agreement of definite duration that the Agreement will be extended remotely upon silence of the Consumer, the agreement will be continued as an agreement for an indefinite period and the notice period after continuation of the agreement will be a maximum of one month.

When a service agreement of definite duration concluded between the Company and the Consumer contains a clause for tacit extension, this clause is placed in bold letters and in a frame separate from the text, on the front of the first page.

This clause states the consequences of the tacit extension including the provision of the following paragraph regarding termination, as well as the latest date on which the Consumer can object to the tacit extension of the agreement and the manner in which he gives notice of this objection. The Consumer can, after the tacit extension of a service agreement of definite duration, terminate the agreement at any time without compensation in compliance with the notice period of a maximum of two months.

Article 10 Force majeure
