Jos Waalkens will make every effort to perform maintenance as well as possible, but is often dependent on its supplier(s) and third parties for updates, error-fixing software (‘patches’) or spare parts. Jos Waalkens is entitled not to install certain updates or patches if, in its opinion, this does not benefit the correct functioning of the software or is not in the interest of the Client. This maintenance also includes the software used by Jos Waalkens for the Cloud service.
  3. As part of the maintenance, Jos Waalkens will make every effort to repair errors in the Works and associated software. However, Jos Waalkens is dependent on supplier(s) and third parties in this regard.

If Client nevertheless insists on the change and Jos Waalkens implements it, this will be done at Client’s own risk and without any liability for Jos Waalkens.
  6. If the Client independently wishes to implement a change to results delivered by Jos Waalkens, this will be done entirely at the Client’s own risk and responsibility, unless the Client has notified Jos Waalkens of the desired change in advance and Jos Waalkens has approved this in writing. Jos Waalkens may attach conditions to this approval.

9 Provisions regarding remote support

  1. Remote support is provided by telephone, email and other mutually agreed channels.
  2. At the request of the Client, Jos Waalkens will propose software with which the computers to be supported can be accessed remotely. It is the responsibility of the Client to ensure that his network and security environment allows this software to work.
  3. If it appears that remote support does not lead to a satisfactory solution or is not feasible given the nature of the problem, Jos Waalkens will consult with the Client to find an on-site solution.

  1. If a Service aims to develop, configure and/or adapt Works such as websites, data files, software, documentation, advice, reports, analyses, designs, texts, photos, films, sound recordings, images, audiovisual material, logos or house styles (hereinafter: “Works”), Jos Waalkens has the right, unless otherwise agreed, to use images, software and components of third parties in the development, configuration or adaptation of Works.
  2. Jos Waalkens is permitted to use open source software, the rights to which are held by third parties. This means, among other things, that Jos Waalkens may supply open source software to the Client and may incorporate open source software into Works that Jos Waalkens creates or modifies in the context of a Service. If the license of certain open source software entails that the Client may only distribute (parts of) the software as open source, Jos Waalkens will adequately inform the Client about all applicable license conditions.
  3. After delivery, the responsibility lies with the Client for correct compliance with the relevant third-party licenses when using the developed Works.

13 Delivery and acceptance

  3. If work is delivered in phases, the Client must approve or reject the part of the work of that phase after delivery of each phase in the manner specified in the previous paragraph. The Client may not base an approval or rejection in a later phase on aspects that were approved in an earlier phase.

  5. If the Client has rejected the delivered product in whole or in part after the first revision or motivation, a reasonable number of revision rounds will follow, in the opinion of Jos Waalkens.

However, the Client is not entitled to use the rejected product in any way whatsoever.
  6. After acceptance of the delivered goods, any liability for defects in the delivered goods shall lapse, unless Jos Waalkens knew or should have known of the defect at the time of acceptance. In any case, any liability for defects shall lapse after one year after termination of the Agreement for whatever reason.

Parties shall also impose this obligation on their employees and on third parties engaged by them to perform the Agreement.
  2. Jos Waalkens will make every effort to avoid taking cognizance of data that Client stores and/or distributes via the hardware or software to which the Services relate, unless this is necessary for the proper performance of the Agreement or Service Provider is obliged to do so by virtue of a statutory provision or court order. In that case, Service Provider will make every effort to limit the cognizance of the data as much as possible, insofar as this is within its power.

  2. Force majeure includes (but is not limited to): disruptions of public infrastructure that is normally available to Jos Waalkens, and on which the delivery of the Services depends, but over which Jos Waalkens has no actual power or contractual obligation to comply, such as the operation of the registers of IANA, RIPE or SIDN, and all networks on the internet with which Jos Waalkens has not entered into a contract; disruptions in infrastructure and/or Services of Jos Waalkens that are caused by computer crime, for example (D)DOS attacks or successful or unsuccessful attempts to circumvent network security or system security; shortcomings of suppliers of Jos Waalkens, that Jos Waalkens could not foresee and for which Jos Waalkens cannot hold its supplier liable, for example because the supplier in question (also) suffered from force majeure; Defects in items, equipment, software or other source material the use of which has been prescribed by the Customer; Unavailability of staff members (due to illness or otherwise); government measures; general transportation problems; strikes; wars; terrorist attacks and civil unrest.
