General and applicability<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The General Conditions of Delivery apply to all offers, activities, quotations and agreements to which, respectively, CINOP B.V., including expressions under the trade names ECIO and ECBO, is a party. These legal entities are hereinafter referred to as CINOP. In case of conflict between provisions of the agreement and the conditions of delivery, the provisions of the agreement will prevail.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Basis of tenders<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Quotes by CINOP are based on the information provided by the client. The client guarantees that to the best of its knowledge it has thereby provided all essential information for the design and implementation of the project. CINOP shall perform the work to be done by it to the best of its knowledge and ability in accordance with the requirements of good workmanship.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Time schedule<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If CINOP depends on information, data or cooperation from the client in the performance of its assignment, CINOP shall not be liable for delays in performance if they arise because the client does not, does not fully or does not timely fulfill its contribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Staff<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CINOP may make changes in the staff charged with carrying out the assignment if in CINOP&#8217;s opinion this is desirable or necessary. However, this may not reduce the quality of the activities, or affect the continuity of the assignment adversely for the client. A change in personnel execution may also take place at the request of the client in consultation with CINOP.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Rates and costs<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The quotation offered by CINOP shall include the rates of the assignment and the associated costs. CINOP applies either a fixed price or a price based on subsequent calculation, whereby a fee is agreed in advance for personnel and material costs. The rates and quotation amounts used by CINOP are based on current price levels. Insofar as work is performed by CINOP on the basis of offers made later than six months after the date of the offer, CINOP reserves the right, without prior consultation, to increase the rates and tender amounts for the consequences of demonstrable cost increases that have occurred in the meantime.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Payment Terms<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Payment of any invoice must be made within three weeks of the invoice date. After that due date, statutory interest shall be charged without notice of default being required. If the client believes that the invoice amount charged is incorrect, the client may make its objections known to CINOP in writing before the due date of the invoice. After receiving the objection, CINOP will investigate the correctness of the invoice amount. CINOP will notify the client in writing of the outcome of its investigation. If the objection is well-founded, CINOP will credit the invoice concerned and send a new invoice, the payment term of which will also be three weeks after that invoice date. If the objection is unfounded, a payment term of seven days of the relevant invoice applies after the date of the written notice from CINOP stating that the objection is unfounded. If the client defaults or is in default in the (timely) fulfillment of its obligations, all extrajudicial (collection) costs (including the costs incurred in preparing and sending reminders, conducting settlement negotiations and other actions in preparation for possible legal proceedings) as well as judicial costs shall be borne by the contractor. The extrajudicial collection costs are calculated on the basis of the Voorwerk II report and are increased by \u20ac 25.00 registration fees.        <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Modification of assignment<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The client accepts that the time schedule of the assignment may be affected if the parties agree in the interim to expand or change the approach, method or scope of the assignment and\/or the resulting work. Such a change with the resulting change in price shall bind the parties only after it has been agreed in writing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Interim termination<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Either party may unilaterally terminate the agreement prematurely, if this is made known to the other party in writing and with reasons, taking into account a notice period of at least one calendar month. Reason for termination may be that the party in question cannot reasonably be required to maintain the agreement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">8.1 Interim termination by the client<br\/>If the client terminates the agreement prematurely, it shall be obliged to compensate CINOP for the full contract price of the assignment, unless otherwise agreed between the two parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">8.2 Premature termination by the contractor<br\/>CINOP may only exercise its power of premature termination if facts and circumstances beyond its control arise, as a result of which <strong>completion<\/strong> of the assignment cannot reasonably be required by the client. CINOP thereby retains the right to payment of the invoices for work performed until then, whereby the preliminary results of the work performed until then will be made available to the client without reservation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Financial assurance<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If one of the parties becomes bankrupt, is granted a moratorium or ceases its business operations, the other party shall be entitled to terminate the existing agreement with immediate effect.<br\/>CINOP shall be entitled to demand security from its client for payment of the order on which CINOP is currently working, if the client is affected by an attachment, levied against it, which may prevent it from fulfilling its obligations to CINOP. If, when requested, the client is unable or unwilling to provide the relevant security, CINOP shall be entitled to terminate the agreement with immediate effect and all outstanding invoices shall become immediately due and payable. <br\/><br\/>10. Intellectual property<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unless the parties have agreed otherwise in writing, all products manufactured by CINOP shall be the intellectual property of CINOP and such ownership shall not be transferred upon delivery of the product. If the parties have agreed that the intellectual property of a particular product is transferred to the contract partner, all ideas, knowledge, principles, methods, techniques and models related to that product shall remain with CINOP. CINOP shall be free to use and handle these, in whatever manner, provided that they do not result in a product that is completely identical to the product delivered in question.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">11. Secrecy<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CINOP is obliged to keep all information and data of the client confidential towards third parties. In connection with the assignment, CINOP shall take all possible precautions to protect the client&#8217;s interests. Without CINOP&#8217;s prior written consent, the client shall not disclose to third parties the approach of CINOP, its working methods and the like, shall treat the digital working environment and data made available by CINOP with integrity and shall not make available correspondence between parties to third parties.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12. Liability<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CINOP shall be liable for shortcomings in the execution of the order insofar as they are the result of CINOP&#8217;s failure to exercise the due care, expertise and skill on which the client might reasonably be expected to rely. Liability for damage caused by the shortcomings shall be limited to a maximum of the amount or price received by CINOP for its work in connection with the assignment. In determining the amount, the principles of reasonableness and fairness shall be applied, including the principle of proportionality. If the assignment has not yet been completed, the maximum applicable in this regard shall be the total invoice amount of the invoices charged up to that time. Any claims of the client must be submitted to CINOP within one year after the discovery of the damage, failing which the client has processed its rights.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">13. Privacy<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Client is Responsible Party within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (AVG). CINOP is the Processor in the sense of the AVG. In performing its work, CINOP will process (personal) data for the purpose set by the Client and not for any other purpose. CINOP shall exercise a high degree of care in processing in accordance with the legal obligations arising from the AVG. CINOP will process personal data for the benefit of the client for the duration of the agreement. CINOP shall inform the client within four working days of any request and\/or complaint from the supervisory authority or data subject regarding personal data processed in the performance of the agreement. CINOP shall cooperate with the client when the data subject makes a request to exercise his or her rights. CINOP shall inform the client within four working days of any (legal) obligation to share personal data with third parties. CINOP shall inform the client about a possible data breach within 24 hours of its discovery. CINOP will subsequently keep the client informed of new developments surrounding the data breach. CINOP will provide all necessary information in the event of a data breach. Any costs for a data breach, including the provision of assistance by CINOP, will be borne by the client. External communication and communication with the supervisory authority about the data breach will always take place in consultation between CINOP and the client. The client shall indemnify CINOP for (consequential) damage and\/or any liability arising from a data breach, unless the data breach was caused by CINOP and only if the processing did not comply with the obligations of the AVG specifically addressed to CINOP or if CINOP acted contrary to the lawful instructions of the client, subject to the limitation of liability included in the agreement. CINOP shall not be liable for (consequential) damage and\/or any liability of the client due to unlawful acquisition of personal data and\/or unlawful processing of personal data made available to CINOP for the purposes of CINOP&#8217;s services. When the agreement between CINOP and the client terminates, CINOP shall (re)transfer to the client and\/or destroy the personal data it has processed in performing the agreement in accordance with the arrangements laid down in the Processing Agreement.               <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">14. Security and data transmission<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CINOP will take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect Personal Data, including encrypted data processing and transmission via secure connections and\/or encrypted storage media. CINOP will endeavor to share Personal Data only through methods that meet current security standards (such as TLS 1.2 or higher for network traffic, and AES-256 for storage), and not transmit Personal Data through unsecured channels without adequate security. If a cooperation partner or client, or a third party engaged by the client, provides a (digital or physical) environment, platform or transport channel for sharing data, the cooperation partner or client in question is responsible for its security and suitability. In that case, CINOP shall not be liable for any security risks, data breaches or damages arising from the use of a facility that does not meet common security standards.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">15. Applicable law<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The agreement between the parties shall be governed by Dutch law. The competent court with respect to the agreement is that of the District Court of Oost-Brabant. <br\/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
