If the Consumer chooses to access the Webshop and/or use the Products and Services outside the Netherlands (as the “Target Country”), the Consumers does so on their own initiative, and they are solely responsible for complying with the applicable local laws in their country.

The Offer and Placed Orders

  3. IIM observes due care in informing the Consumer of the Product features, characteristics and other information applicable to the Products, but cannot warrant that these shall be free of deviations. Any specifications or samples demonstrated or made available shall be no more than indications of the Products concerned. If the Client should be able to demonstrate that the Products supplied by IIM deviate from the information provided by IIM or from the samples or specifications in such a way that the Client can no longer be obliged to comply with the Offer concerned, the Client shall have the right to dissolve the Contract and/or Agreement, to the extent however that such a dissolution should be necessary in reason and without IIM being liable for damages.

Compatibility

The compatibility of IIM Products may be specific to specific home setups. IIM observes due care in informing the Consumer of compatibility specifications through the Webshop. By purchasing the Products, Consumer acknowledges that they have verified the compatibility of the Product (in their home) before purchasing. A lack of compatibility only is not a valid claim under the warranty provided with any Product and does not otherwise constitute a basis for receiving a refund after the 30-Day refund policy under the Right of Withdrawal clause.

Services and Software Licence

  1. IIM grants the Consumer the non-exclusive and non-transferable right to use the software delivered by IIM or otherwise embedded in IIM’s Products or Services.

In addition to this, the Customer shall only be entitled to make copies of the software for back-up purposes.

The right of use is limited to non-business use. The Consumer shall not be allowed to make modifications, additions or adjustments to the software. The Consumer shall not be allowed to decompile the software or to decipher or approach the underlying source code in any other manner, unless and to the extent this is permitted pursuant to mandatory Dutch law.
  3. IIM may take technical measures for the protection of their software. If IIM has secured the software by means of technical protection, the Consumer shall not be allowed to remove, alter or circumvent this security.
  4. IIM may adjust the software if IIM considers this necessary (i) in connection with adjustments and/or improvements of IIM’s Services and Products, (ii) when errors are discovered or (iii) in the event of altered understanding of the software. If a point of improvement has become evident to the Consumer, he shall report this to IIM. It is up to IIM whether or not to adjust the software. IIM cannot be obliged to do so by the Consumer in any way. In the event of adjustments, IIM may inform the Consumer by e-mail and forward these adjustments. Adjustments to the system, whether or not as a result of evident errors in the software can in no way result in liability of IIM.
  5. The software contains confidential business information. The Consumer shall observe strict confidentiality in respect of the software and its operation.

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions and in particular within this clause 16 (“Limitation of Liability”) shall attempt to exclude or limit liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in addition to the above warranty disclaimers, in no event will (a) IIM be liable for any indirect, consequential, exemplary, special, or incidental damages, including any damages for lost data or lost profits, arising from or relating to the Products, even if IIM knew or should have known of the possibility of such damages, and (b) IIM’s total cumulative liability arising from or related to the Products, whether in Contract or tort or otherwise, exceed the fees actually paid by the Consumer to (the authorized representative of) IIM for the Product at issue in the prior six (6) months (if any). This limitation is cumulative and will not be increased by the existence of more than one incident or claim. IIM disclaims all liability of any kind of IIM’s licensors and suppliers.

Force majeure

IIM and the Consumer are not obliged to fulfil any obligation, if they are prevented from doing so due to a circumstance not attributable to fault and which is not regarded as their responsibility, nor by virtue of the law, a legal action or a generally accepted notion, and/or beyond reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God, strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action by third parties, civil commotion, riot, terrorist attack, war, fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, epidemic or other natural disaster, failure of public or private telecommunications networks or impossibility of the use of railways, shipping, aircraft, motor transport or other means of public or private transport.

Should a complaint require a foreseeable longer time of handling, IIM shall respond within 14 Days with a notice of receipt and an indication when the Consumer can expect a more detailed reply.

Privacy and security

IIM respects the privacy of the Consumer. IIM treats and processes all personal data transmitted to it in accordance with the applicable legislation, in particular the GDPR as applicable under Dutch and European Law. The Consumer agrees to this processing. For the purpose of protecting the Consumer’s personal data, IIM observes appropriate security measures. All terms of IIM’s Privacy Policy apply to this clause. For more information, reference is made to the https://goslide.io.

Communications

The Consumer communicates with IIM electronically when using the Webshop or when sending an email to IIM. The Consumer agrees that all Agreements, notices, disclosures and other communications that IIM provides to them electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing. When the Consumer orders on the Webshop, IIM collects and stores the Consumers email address. From that point forward, this email address is used to send information about Products and Services unless the Consumer explicitly opts-out of such emails using the opt-out link in the emails.

Notifications

IIM may provide notifications to the Consumer as required by law or for marketing or other purposes via (at its option) email to the primary email associated with their (previous) order(s), hard copy, or posting of such notice on the website. IIM is not responsible for any automatic filtering the Consumer or their network provider may apply to email notifications.

Additional provisions

  1. Any possible derogations in respect of these General Terms and Conditions may be agreed upon only in writing. No rights can be derived from these deviations with regard to future Agreements.
  2. The administration of IIM serves as proof of purchase orders and requests of the Consumer, unless the Consumer proves otherwise. The Consumer acknowledges that electronic communication can serve as proof.
  3. IIM is entitled to transfer the rights and obligations under the Contract with the Consumer to a third party, by a single notification to the Consumer.
  4. In case and to the extent that any provisions of these General Terms and Conditions are cancelled or declared invalid, IIM shall draw up a new provision to replace the null/nullified provision, duly observing as much as possible the object and purpose of the annulled provision. The nullified provision or part thereof will be deemed to not form part of the Contract or Agreement between IIM and the Consumer. The legality, validity or enforceability of the remainder of these Terms and Conditions will remain in full force and effect.

Governing law, Disputes and Arbitration

  1. These General Terms and Conditions, and any non-Contractual obligations arising thereto, between IIM and the Consumer are governed exclusively by the laws of The Netherlands. The court of Amsterdam (Netherlands) will have (exclusive) jurisdiction or any other court that has jurisdiction under relevant consumer protection laws in the Consumer’s jurisdiction.
  2. In case of any dispute between IIM or any of their representatives and the Consumer, the Consumer contacts IIM first. IIM’s goal is to resolve these disputes without any formal legal action and therefore request the Consumer to notify IIM of any dispute they have with IIM.
  3. Binding Arbitration. The Consumer and IIM agree that subject to section 11(f) (Protection of Confidentiality and Intellectual Property Rights), to submit any claim, dispute, action, cause of action, issue or request for relief arising out of or relating to these Terms and Conditions or the Consumer’s use of the Products and/or Services of IIM to binding arbitration rather than by filing any lawsuit in any forum other than set forth in this section.
  4. Furthermore, IIM and the Consumer agree that arbitration is final and binding and subject to only very limited review by a court. IIM also waives their right to any form of appeal, review or recourse to any court or other judicial authority, insofar as such a waiver may be validly made. This provision is intended to be interpreted broadly to encompass all disputes or claims arising out of or relating to the use of the Products and/or Services. Subject to section 11(f) (Protection of Confidentiality and Intellectual Property Rights), any dispute or claim made by the Consumer against IIM or IIM against the Consumer will be resolved by binding arbitration except that both parties may take claims to the small claims court if they qualify for hearing by such a court.
  5. Arbitration Procedures. The consumer must first present any claim or dispute to IIM by contacting IIM to allow him an opportunity to resolve the dispute. The Consumer may request arbitration if their claim or dispute cannot be resolved within 60 Days after presenting the claim or dispute to IIM. IIM may request arbitration against the Consumer at any time after it has notified the Consumer of a claim or dispute in accordance with section 16 (Notifications). The arbitration of any dispute or claim shall be conducted in accordance with the then current and applicable rules. The place of any arbitration will be Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and will be conducted in the English or Dutch language. Claims will be heard by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator may not award relief in excess of or contrary to what this Agreement provides, order consolidation or arbitration on a class wide or representative basis, award punitive or consequential damages or any other damages aside from the prevailing party’s actual damages or order injunctive or declaratory relief, except that the arbitrator may award on an individual basis damages required by statute and may order injunctive or declaratory relief pursuant to an applicable consumer protection statute. Any arbitration shall be confidential and neither the Consumer, nor IIM, nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement or appeal of the arbitration award. Judgement on any arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction. If any portion of this arbitration section is determined by a court to be inapplicable or invalid, then the remainder shall still be given full force and effect.
  6. No class actions. There shall be no right or authority for any claims subject to this arbitration section to be arbitrated on a class action or consolidated basis or on bases involving claims brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public (including, but not limited to, as a private attorney general).
  7. Fees and Expenses. All administrative fees and expenses of arbitration will be divided equally between the Consumer and IIM. Each party will bear the expense of its own counsel, experts, witnesses and preparation and presentation of evidence at the arbitration hearing.
  8. Protection of Confidentiality and Intellectual Property Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, IIM may seek injunctive or other equitable relief to protect its confidential information and intellectual property rights or to prevent loss of data or damage to its servers in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Waiver

Failure or delay by IIM to enforce any of these Terms and Conditions will not constitute a waiver of IIM’s rights against the Consumer and does not affect IIM’s right to require future performance thereof.
