Terms & Conditions

Article 1 — Definitions

In these terms and conditions:

• TechTable: the contractor, registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under number 98067826;
• Client: the natural or legal person who commissions TechTable;
• Agreement: any arrangement between TechTable and the Client for the provision of services, such as designing, building and maintaining websites, web shops and software.

Article 2 — Applicability

These terms apply to all quotes, offers and agreements of TechTable. Deviations are only valid if agreed in writing. The applicability of any purchasing or other terms of the Client is expressly rejected.

Article 3 — Quotes and prices

All quotes are without obligation and valid for 30 days, unless stated otherwise. Prices are exclusive of VAT. Obvious errors or clerical mistakes in quotes do not bind TechTable.

Article 4 — Performance of the assignment

TechTable performs assignments to the best of its knowledge and ability (best-efforts obligation). Stated delivery dates are indicative and do not constitute strict deadlines. TechTable may engage third parties in the performance of the assignment.

Article 5 — Client cooperation

The Client ensures that all information and materials needed for the assignment (such as texts, images and access credentials) are provided in good time. Delays caused by their absence are not attributable to TechTable and may lead to adjustments in planning and costs.

The Client warrants that supplied materials do not infringe the rights of third parties.

Article 6 — Additional work and changes

Changes or additions outside the agreed scope (additional work) are only carried out after consultation with and approval by the Client, and are invoiced separately at TechTable's standard hourly rate.

Article 7 — Payment

Invoices are due within 14 days of the invoice date, unless agreed otherwise. In the event of late payment, the Client is in default by operation of law and owes statutory commercial interest and extrajudicial collection costs. TechTable may suspend work for as long as invoices remain unpaid.

Article 8 — Intellectual property

All intellectual property rights in works developed by TechTable remain with TechTable until the Client has paid all amounts due in full. Upon full payment, the Client acquires the agreed rights to the delivered work.

Rights to tools, frameworks and open-source software used by TechTable remain with their respective rights holders.

TechTable may use delivered work for its own promotion (for example in its portfolio), unless agreed otherwise in writing.

Article 9 — Third-party services

For hosting, domain names and similar services, TechTable depends on external suppliers. TechTable strives for good availability but does not guarantee uninterrupted operation of these services.

Article 10 — Liability

TechTable's liability is limited to the amount invoiced for the assignment concerned or, for continuing agreements, to the amount invoiced in the six months preceding the event causing the damage.

TechTable is not liable for indirect damage, such as consequential damage, lost profits, missed savings or loss of data.

These limitations do not apply in the event of intent or deliberate recklessness on the part of TechTable.

Article 11 — Force majeure

In the event of force majeure — including failures at third parties, internet or power outages and other circumstances beyond TechTable's control — TechTable's obligations are suspended. If the force majeure lasts longer than 60 days, either party may dissolve the agreement in writing, without any right to compensation.

Article 12 — Confidentiality

Both parties keep confidential information received in the context of the collaboration secret, unless disclosure is required by law.

Article 13 — Term and termination

Agreements for ongoing services (such as maintenance) are entered into for the agreed period and can thereafter be terminated in writing with one month's notice.

Either party may dissolve the agreement with immediate effect if the other party attributably fails to perform and remains in default after written notice, or in the event of the other party's bankruptcy or suspension of payments.

Article 14 — Governing law and disputes

All agreements with TechTable are governed by Dutch law. Disputes will be submitted to the competent court in the district where TechTable is established, unless mandatory law provides otherwise.
