Article 1 - Scope

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

These Terms & Conditions apply to the exclusion of the Client’s general terms and conditions.


Article 2 - Quotations

Our quotations are purely indicative and non-binding and expire if they are not accepted by the Client within 30 calendar days.

Quotations only become legally valid agreements upon signature by both the Client and ourselves.
We also reserve the right to refuse certain assignments without giving any reason.


Article 3 - Price & Payment

The price for our goods/services is the one stated in the quotation.

All our invoices are payable within 14 days of receipt, unless the quotation provides for another due date.
If we request an advance payment, we will only commence our activities after receipt of this advance.

For any delay in payment, the Client shall automatically and without prior notice owe late payment interest of 1% per started month, each started month being considered a full month, without prejudice to any damages and costs.
A fixed compensation of 10% of the invoice amount with a minimum of €250 shall also be due by operation of law and without prior notice as a penalty clause, in addition to the principal amount, late payment interest, collection costs, reminder costs, prosecution costs and any expenses resulting from loss of time and legal or judicial costs. This penalty clause does not affect the obligation to pay the agreed late payment interest.

Disputes must be notified to us by registered letter within five working days after dispatch of the invoice, failing which they will be inadmissible.


Article 4 - Duration of the Agreement and Termination

Our agreements may be concluded as described in our quotations.
The agreement may be terminated by us at any time unilaterally and without judicial intervention if the Client is declared bankrupt, enters into judicial reorganisation or fails to pay their invoices.

We are not liable except in cases of intent or gross negligence.
Furthermore, we are not liable for any direct or indirect damage (such as consequential damage, loss of profit, lost savings or damage due to business interruption) for which our liability has not been expressly provided for in these terms. Our liability shall in all cases be limited to the amount of the agreed price for the relevant order (excluding VAT).

We make every effort to provide access to the website 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
However, given the technical characteristics of the internet and IT resources, as well as the need to carry out periodic maintenance, updates or upgrades, we cannot guarantee uninterrupted access and service.
In the event of normally acceptable interruptions or disruptions to access or service, we will make every effort to remedy this within the shortest possible time.
Such normally acceptable interruptions or disruptions are inherent to internet-based services and cannot be considered shortcomings.

In the event of force majeure, we are not obliged to fulfil our obligations.
In such cases, we may either suspend our obligations for the duration of the force majeure or definitively terminate the agreement.

Force majeure means any circumstance beyond our will and control that prevents the fulfilment of our obligations in whole or in part.
This includes, but is not limited to: strikes, unexpected traffic congestion, accidents on European roads, fire, business disruptions, energy failures, disruptions in (telecommunication) networks or connections or communication systems used and/or the temporary unavailability of the website, non-delivery or late delivery by suppliers or other third parties engaged,…


Article 9 - Nullity and Completeness

These Terms & Conditions constitute the entire agreement between the Client and us regarding the subject matter contained herein.

If one or more provisions of these Terms & Conditions are at any time wholly or partially illegal, void or otherwise unenforceable, this clause shall be deemed severable from these Terms & Conditions and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.

In case of disputes, only the courts of the judicial district of our registered office shall have jurisdiction.
