If an offer has a limited period of validity or is made subject to conditions, this will be explicitly stated in the offer.  The offer contains a complete and accurate description of the offered Content, digital content and/or Content. The description is sufficiently detailed to allow a proper assessment of the offer by the Customer.

Each offer contains such information that it is clear to the Consumer what rights and obligations are attached to accepting the offer.

 

Despite the fact that the online catalogue and the e-commerce website are compiled with the greatest possible care, it is still possible that the information offered is incomplete, contains material errors, or is not up to date. Obvious mistakes or errors in the offer are not binding for Ringwalks. As far as the accuracy and completeness of the information provided are concerned, Ringwalks is only bound to a best-efforts obligation. Ringwalks shall in no event be liable for any material errors, misprints or printing errors. Ringwalks reserves the right to correct errors, even if an order has already been confirmed.

Article 7. Maintenance work

 

Ringwalks is entitled to put its systems, Website or parts thereof temporarily out of operation for the purpose of adjustment, maintenance, functional adjustment or improvement or in order to rectify errors. Ringwalks will arrange for this to be done outside office hours as much as possible and will make every effort to notify the User of this in good time. In case of functional adjustment or improvement, this may be relevant for several Users so that it is not possible for the User to refrain from one particular adjustment or improvement. Ringwalks shall never be liable for compensation to damage incurred by Users in connection with temporary disuse or functional adjustment or improvement.

 

Article 8. Liability

 

The undertakings of Ringwalks are best efforts undertakings. Ringwalks shall not be liable in connection with the realisation or execution of the Agreement, except in the cases mentioned below, and up to the limits set out therein.

 

In the event of a breach of the Terms and Conditions by the User, Ringwalks reserves the right to take appropriate sanctions and compensatory measures, such as temporarily or permanently denying access to the platform. These measures may be taken without giving any reason and without prior notice. They shall not give rise to any liability on the part of Ringwalks, nor shall they give rise to any form of compensation.

 

The User understands and accepts that Ringwalks shall in no event be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or moral damages. These include, but are not limited to, damages for loss of profits, interruption of business operations, business reputation or goodwill, loss of programs or data or other intangible losses resulting from the use of the inability to use the service or information or a permanent or temporary cessation of such service or access to information, or the deletion or corruption of any content or information, or the failure to store any content or information. The above limitation applies regardless of whether Ringwalks has been advised of or should have been advised of the possibility of such damages in jurisdictions that do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages.

 

Ringwalks shall not be liable for any claims or legal proceedings arising from the unlawful provision of material which violates copyright laws and/or existing trademark laws. The User is solely responsible for the content (such as text) on his/her website and Ringwalks shall not be held liable for this. Defects in the material which were hidden from Ringwalks shall not affect its responsibility and shall not give rise to any claim for damages.

 

Ringwalks shall not be liable for any damage resulting from misuse by third parties of data stored and/or processed by Ringwalks as part of the performance of the Agreement. Ringwalks shall also not be liable for damage resulting from sending or receiving information and/or having information available on a website.

 

Ringwalks is not responsible or liable for the content of the User’s data. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the User is responsible for a back-up of all data held by the User. This refers to the computer infrastructure (web spaces, computers, mobile devices, virtual spaces, applications, etc.). Ringwalks shall therefore never be held liable for any loss of data, delays or interruptions (of power or internet) of the goods and/or services provided.  Ringwalks will never log into the User’s systems, unless explicitly requested by the User in writing.

 

Ringwalks shall explicitly not be liable for indirect damage, consequential damage, loss of profit, lost savings and damage due to business interruption.

 

Ringwalks shall not be liable for any errors or shortcomings when these are due to software or hardware or data or applications or other materials, not supplied by Ringwalks and which are faulty and/or which Ringwalks did not know would be used together with the products and/or services supplied by it, or the fact that parties other than Ringwalks have made changes to the products and/or services.

 

Furthermore, Ringwalks shall in no event be liable for damage caused by delays, damage due to loss of data, damage due to exceeding delivery deadlines as a result of changed circumstances, damage as a result of providing inadequate cooperation and damage due to information or advice provided by Ringwalks, the contents of which do not explicitly form part of a written agreement.

 

The total liability of Ringwalks for damage suffered by the User as a result of an attributable failure on the part of Ringwalks to fulfil its obligations under the Agreement, explicitly including any failure to fulfil a warranty obligation agreed with the User, Ringwalks’ liability for a breach of contract or wrongful act on the part of Ringwalks or its employees shall be limited per event or series of related events to an amount equal to the total fees (exclusive of VAT) payable by the User under the Agreement or, if the Agreement has been in force for more than six (6) months, to an amount equal to the fees paid by the User during the last six (6) months. In no event, however, shall the total compensation for direct damage exceed five thousand (5,000) euros (excluding VAT).

 

The User shall be liable towards Ringwalks for damage caused by an error or shortcoming attributable to him/her. The User shall indemnify Ringwalks against all damage that Ringwalks may suffer as a result of claims from third parties in connection with goods or services supplied by Ringwalks, including:

 

• Claims by third parties, including the User’s employees, who suffer damage as a result of unlawful acts by Ringwalks’ employees (workers and/or freelancers) who are made available to the User and work under the User’s supervision or on the User’s instructions.
• Claims from third parties, including Ringwalks’ employees, who, in connection with the performance of the Agreement, incur damage as a result of acts or omissions by the User or of unsafe situations in his company, including misuse of the Services for illegal activities on the Internet.
• Claims relating to non-compliance with the rules of conduct in these Terms and Conditions and the additional terms and conditions when using the Services by or with the consent of the User. This indemnification shall also apply to persons who, although not employees of the User, have nevertheless used the Services under the User’s responsibility or with the User’s consent.
• Claims from third parties who suffer damage as a result of a defect in products and services supplied by Ringwalks, if the defect in the materials was hidden by Ringwalks.
• All claims from supervisory authorities, including the Personal Data Authority, and/or from data subject(s) whose personal data are processed by Ringwalks as part of the performance of the Agreement, unless User proves that the facts underlying the claim are attributable to Ringwalks.

 

The liability of Ringwalks for attributable failure in the performance of the Agreement shall arise only if the User gives Ringwalks immediate and proper notice of default in writing, setting a reasonable time period to remedy the failure and Ringwalks remains in attributable breach of contract even after such period. The notice of default should contain a description of the shortcoming that is as detailed as possible, so that Ringwalks is able to respond adequately. The notice of default must be received by Ringwalks within 30 days after the discovery of the damage.

Article 17. Intellectual property rights

 

The User may only transmit material for which he has obtained all rights (intellectual property rights, portrait rights, etc.). The material (texts, photographs, graphic material) supplied to Ringwalks by the User is the property of the User.

 

Unless agreed otherwise, all intellectual property rights arising from the order – including patent rights, design rights and copyright – shall belong to Ringwalks. Insofar as such rights can only be obtained by means of a deposit or registration, Ringwalks shall be the sole party authorized to do so. Unless agreed otherwise, the assignment does not include conducting research into the existence of rights, including patent rights, trademark rights, drawing or model rights, copyrights or portrait rights of third parties. The same applies to any investigation into the possibility of such forms of protection for the User.

 

After full payment of the agreed price, Ringwalks shall, if explicitly stated on the invoice, transfer the user and intellectual property rights to the design to the User. The source files of the design become the property of the User, if so, explicitly stated on the invoice. Delivered services are always provided with a footer in which Ringwalks is mentioned as the author of the publication.

 

Unless the work is not suitable for it, Ringwalks is at all times entitled to mention its name on or near the work or to remove it. The user is allowed to publish or reproduce the work without mentioning the name of Ringwalks, provided he/she receives prior consent.

 

Upon completion of the assignment, Ringwalks is obliged to retain the materials and data used for a period of 3 years from the original drawing, whereby the User has the opportunity to purchase any works subject to intellectual property rights. Upon purchase, the retention obligation expires and the User may freely dispose of the works. Attached trademarks or other protected signs may then be removed.

 

To the extent that all or some of these elements are not the exclusive property of the User, the User guarantees that it has all necessary authorisations and/or licences for the use of these elements. These authorisations shall refer to, as the case may be:

 

• The right of reproduction on any digital or other medium, including the right of adaptation necessary for the transfer from one medium to another.
• The right of graphic adaptation on any medium.
• The right of electronic distribution and, where appropriate, the right to distribute the medium containing these elements.
• The right of communication to the public, with or without wire, by any means, such as cable, satellite, Internet, including making the elements available to the public in such a way that each person can access them at the place and time individually chosen.

 

The user indemnifies Ringwalks against all claims by third parties who might assert an intellectual or other contradictory right on any of the elements or data. The User agrees that, for the entire duration of the order, the owner of the rights to these elements waives his/her right to oppose any changes to these elements or their association with other texts, declarations, elements, etc. The User accepts that Ringwalks may modify the stored elements according to technical requirements. This is without prejudice to the author’s right to oppose any changes that might harm his/her honour or reputation.

 

The User accepts that Ringwalks may take all actions necessary for the performance of the Services, including:

 

• copy the data and/or elements and their updates; both permanently and temporarily, regardless of the form or medium (including electronically);
• communicate them and/or make them available to Internet users and non-Internet users, such as users of wireless networks.

 

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the User is not allowed to remove or change any indication concerning copyrights, brands, trade names or other intellectual property rights from these Materials, including indications regarding the confidential nature and secrecy of the Materials.

 

Ringwalks is allowed to take technical measures to protect its Materials. If Ringwalks has secured these Materials by means of technical protection, the User is not allowed to remove or circumvent this protection, unless and to the extent that the law imperatively stipulates otherwise.
