11.6    If Customer exceeds the maximum number of stores/cities allowed according to Agreement, Customer automatically upgrades its Starter/ Essential/ Business/ Enterprise Plan (as defined in Appendix 1)  for the same term as stated in the offer.

Customer is not entitled to any compensation of loss or damage that may arise from this.
12.7    In the event that Customer is held in default, Bringly will be authorised to restrict its service provision, for instance by restricting access to the Service and/or the Software, provided it notifies Customer thereof at least 48 hours in advance. Customer is not entitled to any compensation of loss or damage that may arise from this.
12.8    A demand for payment will be due and payable immediately in the event that Customer is declared bankrupt, applies for a suspension of payments, or an attachment is made on all of Customer’s capital assets, and furthermore if Customer’s business is wound up or dissolved.

13.    PERSONAL DATA AND SECURITY
13.1    Where Customer provides personal data in the performance of this Agreement, both the Parties are subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), where Customer is the controller and Bringly the processor. Customer indemnifies Bringly against any and all claims by third parties/data subjects under the GDPR.

13.4    Customer guarantees to only enter personal data in a fully lawful manner and bears full responsibility for this.
13.5    If in the context of a legal obligation, for example under the GDPR, Customer is required to change, delete or hand over data stored in Bringly’s Software, Bringly will assist with this to the extent possible. The costs of any work can be invoiced separately based on the applicable hourly rate.

14.    LIABILITY
14.1    Bringly shall only be liable to Customer for direct loss or damage as a result of an attributable shortcoming in the fulfilment of the Agreement by Bringly. Direct loss or damage is understood exclusively to comprise any loss or damage consisting of:
a)    damage inflicted directly on tangible objects (“property loss or damage”);
b)    reasonable and demonstrable costs that Customer had to incur to remind Bringly to properly comply (again) with the Agreement;
c)    reasonable costs incurred in determining the cause and the extent of the loss or damage, insofar as this relates to direct loss or damage as referred to here;
d)    reasonable and demonstrable costs that Customer has incurred to prevent or limit the direct loss or damage as referred to in this article.
14.2    Bringly’s liability is limited to the amount covered under Bringly’s professional liability insurance or, if not covered, to the total amount of the Fees payable to Bringly over the preceding calendar year (excluding VAT). Under no circumstances, however, will the total compensation for direct loss or damage exceed a sum of EUR 5,000.- (five thousand) (excluding VAT). 
14.3    Bringly cannot be held liable for compensation of indirect loss or damage or consequential loss or damage such as  lost turnover or profit, loss or damage arising from delay, data loss, exceeding of stipulated terms as the result of changed conditions; loss or damage arising from inadequate cooperation, information or materials provided by Bringly and loss or damage arising from information or advice provided by Bringly of which the content is not explicitly part of this Agreement.
14.4    The exclusions and limitations of liability referred to in the preceding articles cease to apply if and insofar as the loss or damage is a consequence of an intentional act or wilful recklessness on the part of Bringly’s management.
14.5    Bringly’s liability for an attributable failure to perform the Agreement will only arise if Customer gives Bringly proper notice of default in writing without delay, providing a reasonable period to remedy its failure, and Bringly continues to attributably fail to comply with its obligations even after that period. The notice of default must contain the most detailed description possible of the failure to fulfil the obligations to enable Bringly to provide an adequate response.
14.6    Application of Section 6:271 et seq. of the Dutch Civil Code is excluded.
14.7    Customer indemnifies Bringly against all claims by third parties (including customers of Customer), which involve compensation for damage, costs or interest and bear a relation to the Agreement, the Service and/or the use of the Software.

15.    FORCE MAJEURE
15.1    Neither Party may be bound to perform any obligation if a circumstance beyond the Parties’ control, that could not or should not have been foreseen when the Agreement was entered into, negates every reasonable opportunity to perform.
15.2    Force majeure shall be understood to include, but not be limited to: failures of public infrastructure that is normally available to Bringly and on which the delivery of the Services depends, but over which Bringly has no actual control or in respect of which Bringly can make no contractual obligation to perform, such as Internet networks with which Bringly has not concluded a contract; failures of the Bringly infrastructure and/or Services of Bringly caused by computer crimes, such as (distributed) denial of services attacks (DoS or DDoS) or successful or unsuccessful attempts to circumvent network security or systems security; failures of Bringly’s suppliers, which Bringly was unable to foresee and where Bringly is unable to hold its supplier liable, because force majeure similarly applied to the relevant supplier, for instance; defective items, equipment, software or other source material, the use of which has been stipulated by Customer; unavailability of staff (due to illness or otherwise); government measures; general transport problems; strikes; wars; terrorist attacks; and civil commotion.
15.3    Either of the Parties shall have the right to terminate the contract in writing if a situation of force majeure continues for more than thirty (30) days. In such case, the Services that have already been performed under the Agreement will be paid for on a proportional basis without the Parties owing each other anything else.

16.    CONFIDENTIALITY
16.1    The Parties will treat the information they provide each other before, during or after the performance of this Agreement as confidential if such information has been marked as confidential or if the receiving Party is aware or should reasonably assume that the information was intended to be confidential. The Parties will also impose this obligation on their employees, as well as on any third parties they have engaged to perform the Agreement.
16.2    Bringly will not access data stored by Customer and/or distributed by Customer via Bringly’s systems and/or Software, unless this is required to ensure the proper performance of the Agreement or Bringly is obliged to do so pursuant to a legal provision or an injunction. In such case, Bringly will undertake to limit access to the information as far as possible, to the extent that this is within its power.
16.3    Customer agrees to the processing of data stored by and/or distributed by Customer via Bringly’s system and/or Software on aggregated level in order to improve the Software and Services.
16.4    Bringly will not share any data with any third parties unless this is required to ensure the proper performance of the Agreement or Bringly is obliged to do so pursuant to a legal provision or an injunction. In such case, Bringly will undertake to limit access to the information as far as possible, to the extent that this is within its power.
16.5    The duty of confidentiality also remains in force after termination of the Agreement for any reason whatsoever, and for as long as the party providing the information can reasonably lay claim to the confidential nature of the information.

17.    DURATION AND TERMINATION
17.1     The Agreement is entered into for the term stated in the Agreement and is automatically extended for a term of one (1) year unless agreed otherwise by the Parties. If no term is stated in the Agreement, the Agreement will be entered into for a period of  twelve (12) months. 
17.2    Bringly shall never be obliged to provide any compensation for damage owing to notice of termination, dissolution or another method of termination of the Agreement. 
17.3    After termination of the Agreement for whatever reason Customer shall cease and not resume any use of the Software. Customer shall remove any back-up file (and any other copies) of the Software from its systems or return them to Bringly.

18.    AMENDMENTS
18.1    Bringly will need to amend its Terms and Conditions from time to time. 
18.2    Customer will be informed by e-mail to Customer or via another channel or mode that allows Bringly to determine that notice was given to Customer. Non-substantive minor changes can be implemented at all times, without requiring express notification.  If no written objection is received from Customer within two (2) weeks following the notice, Customer will have deemed  to accepted the amendments.
18.3    Should Customer not wish to accept an amendment, it can inform Bringly so, in writing. This may give Bringly cause to review the amendment. If Bringly does not subsequently retract the amendment, Customer may terminate the Agreement with effect from the date on which the new terms and conditions take effect.

19.    MISCELLANEOUS 
19.1    The Agreement is governed by Dutch law.
19.2    All disputes that may arise between Bringly and Customer shall be submitted to the district court of Amsterdam.
19.3    The term “written” in this Agreement also includes communication by e-mail or fax.
19.4    If any provisions in the Agreement are declared null and void, this will not affect the validity of the entire Agreement. In such case, the Parties will stipulate a new provision or new provisions to replace any such provisions, reflecting the purport of the original Agreement and the Terms and Conditions as much as legally possible.
19.5    The Parties will inform each other in writing without delay of any changes in name, postal address, e-mail address and telephone number, as well as bank and giro account numbers.

PART B. SOFTWARE INTEGRATION TERMS
If the Service comprises (in part) the delivery of Software, the provisions of this Part B shall also apply.

20.    INSTALLATION AND DELIVERY
20.1    Unless agreed otherwise in writing, Customer shall be responsible for its hardware, software and network environment, as well as the installation of the Software.
20.2    Bringly shall provide reasonable support in respect of the installation of the Software.
20.3    The selection, purchase and management of hardware, software and network environment are the sole and full responsibility of Customer. Bringly shall give instructions with regard to the desired configuration. If the designated environment does not meet the requirements of Bringly, Bringly shall not be responsible for any failure in the operation of the Software.
20.4    On request, Bringly shall inform Customer of system requirements, but can in no case be held responsible and liable for any failure in the operation of the Software delivered on the systems of Customer or a third party engaged by Customer (including a hosting provider). In addition, Bringly shall not be obliged to carry out modifications of the Software with a view to the proper operation on the above-mentioned systems of Customer. Bringly shall however provide assistance in seeking a suitable solution, insofar as it deems this reasonable. This is at the sole discretion of Bringly. With regards to system modifications, Bringly specifically stipulates that Customer is responsible for the modification of their printer settings.

21.    GUARANTEES AND AVAILABILITY
21.1    Customer accepts that the Software contains only the functionality and other features as found by Customer in the Software at the time of delivery (“as is”), i.e. with all visible and invisible errors and defects. Unless otherwise agreed by means of an SLA, Bringly does not guarantee that the Software will be available at all times and without interruptions or defects.
21.2    Bringly is not obliged to rectify problems/defects in the Software that are identified more than three (3) months after delivery and are attributable to changes in the environment or other technical factors (including browsers, infrastructure, operating systems and modified standards).
21.3    Modifications that are required to be carried out as a result of technical factors as referred to in the preceding section shall be performed in Minor Updates. 
21.4    Customer recognizes that Bringly has no control of the hardware and infrastructure on which the Software has been installed. Bringly therefore does not provide any guarantees with regard to the availability of the hardware and infrastructure, and the availability of the Software as a result of non-availability of the hardware and/or infrastructure.

PART C. PLATFORM TERMS OF USE (SAAS)
Where the Service comprises (in part) the delivery of the Platform or any other software-as-a-service (together: SaaS), the provisions of this Part C shall also apply.

22.    USE OF THE SERVICE
22.1    The SaaS will be made available to Customer as online software service from the Signing date or any other date agreed in writing. Bringly shall inform Customer of when the SaaS is made available.
22.2    Bringly shall endeavour to send the login details of the SaaS to Customer as soon as possible after the Starting Date of the Agreement. Customer is aware that loss of these login details can lead to unauthorised access to the SaaS. Customer shall protect the login details against unauthorised access and unauthorised persons.
22.3    Bringly hereby grants Customer a non-exclusive and non-transferable right of use for the duration of the Agreement in order to use the SaaS in accordance with the Agreement and these Terms and Conditions.
22.4    In particular, Customer must keep the password strictly confidential. Bringly may assume that everything that takes place from the account of Customer after login with the associated user name and password, takes place under the management and supervision of Customer. This means that Customer is liable for all these actions, unless Customer has informed Bringly that another person knows the password.
22.5    In the event of suspected misuse of the account, Customer shall inform Bringly without delay and Customer shall change the (login) details. 
22.6    Personal data are processed when using the SaaS. The provisions in Article 12 of these Terms and Conditions apply to the processing of personal data.

23.    CONDUCT
23.1    Customer guarantees that the SaaS will not be used for activities that conflict with Dutch law, other applicable laws and regulations or public decency.
23.2    Customer is only permitted to use the SaaS for its own use. It is expressly prohibited to use the SaaS on behalf of third parties, or to provide access to the account to third parties.
23.3    In particular, it is prohibited to use the SaaS in such a way that it causes nuisance or inconvenience to third parties. This includes using own scripts or programs to upload or download large quantities of data, or excessive use of the SaaS.
23.4    Customer is prohibited to test the limits of the SaaS. This includes but is not limited to stress testing of the Software. If Bringly ascertains that Customer has violated this condition, Bringly has the right to block Customers account temporarily or permanently to safeguard the stability and proper performance of the SaaS.
23.5    In addition, it is prohibited to use the SaaS: 
a)    to distribute information that is pornographic or erotic (even if this is legal in itself);
b)    to distribute information in violation of copyrights, or to place hyperlinks to such information;
c)    to violate the privacy of third parties, for instance by distributing third-party personal data without permission or necessity, or repeatedly harassing third parties by providing them with unwanted communications.
23.6    If in Bringly’s judgment Customer has violated the above conditions, or receives a complaint, it will give Customer a warning. If this does not lead to a satisfactory solution, Bringly itself may intervene to end the violation. In urgent or serious cases, Bringly may intervene without warning.
23.7    If, at Bringly’s discretion, the operation of Bringly’s computer systems or network, third-party networks and/or service provision via the internet is obstructed, damaged or otherwise put at risk, in particular as a result of excessive amounts of data being sent, leaked personal data or virus activity, Trojan horses and similar software, Bringly is authorised to take any reasonable measures it deems necessary to avert or prevent such risk.
23.8    Bringly is entitled at all times to report any criminal acts discovered. In addition, Bringly is authorised to provide Customer’s name, address and other identification data to a third party who has complained that Customer has breached its rights or the Agreement, provided that, according to the principles of reasonableness and fairness, the accuracy of the particular complaint is sufficiently plausible and the third party has a clear interest in being provided with these data.
23.9    Bringly may recover from Customer any losses or damage suffered as a result of violation of these rules of conduct. Customer indemnifies Bringly against all third-party claims pertaining to losses or damage arising from a violation of these rules of use.

24.    AVAILABILITY OF THE SERVICE
24.1    The SaaS will be performed on the basis of a best-efforts obligation, unless and to the extent that Bringly has pledged an explicit result in the SLA and the relevant result has also been adequately described.
24.2    Bringly will make the SaaS available via the internet and ensure that it achieves the best possible response time for this for Customer.
24.3    Bringly has the right to take its systems, including the SaaS, in their entirety or in part, temporarily out of operation for the purpose of maintenance (planned or unplanned), adjustment, or improvement. Bringly will endeavour to ensure that as far as possible any downtime periods are scheduled outside office hours, and will undertake to inform Customer in good time of the scheduling of downtime periods. However, Bringly is never liable for compensation for damages arising from such downtime periods.
24.4    Bringly has the right to adapt its systems, including the SaaS, in their entirety or in part, from time to time in order to improve their functionality and/or to correct errors. If an adjustment causes a considerable change in functionality, Bringly will undertake to inform Customer of this. In the event of modifications that are relevant to multiple Customers, it is not possible to waive a specific modification only for Customer. Bringly is not liable for any compensation for loss or damage resulting from such a modification.
24.5    In the event of unavailability of the SaaS due to disruptions, maintenance or other causes, Bringly will make every effort to inform Customer of the nature and expected duration of the interruption.

25.    PROCEDURE UPON TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT
25.1    After termination of the Agreement, as a result of cancellation, all data stored for Customer will be kept available until one (1) month after the termination, so that Customer itself can download the data. After this period, all Customer data will be deleted, regardless of whether Customer has downloaded it or not, unless otherwise agreed by means of an SLA. Bringly is not obliged to provide Customer with back-up files on its own initiative, unless agreed otherwise in writing by means of an SLA.
25.2    The deletion of data stored for Customer will take place as standard without special precautions to make the deletion irreversible, but can on request be carried out, against additional payment, with the use of a software-based data shredder.

The notice of default must be sufficiently detailed to enable Bringly to provide an adequate response.

i)    EUR 454,- per shipment for damage to the goods;
ii)    Two times the freight for damage as a result of not being able to use the content of the order for the purpose for which it was intended.

29.8    Bringly cannot be held liable for lost profit, consequential loss and/or immaterial damage, whatever the cause.
