1. Application of the International Conditions of Sale

1.1 These International Conditions of Sale of DiGidot Technologies B.V. apply to all customers of DiGidot Technologies B.V. whose relevant place of business is not in the Netherlands. For customers whose place of business is in the Netherlands, the General Conditions of Sale of DiGidot Technologies B.V. goods for Dutch Customers apply, which will be forwarded on request. In each case, the relevant place or country of business is the one where DiGidot Technologies B.V. formally delivers to.

1.2. These International Conditions of Sale apply to the present and all subsequent contracts whose preponderant object is the supply of goods and/or services to customers. Additional obligations assumed by DiGidot Technologies B.V. do not affect the application of these International Conditions of Sale.

1.3. Conflicting or differing terms of business of the customer do not bind DiGidot Technologies B.V., even if DiGidot Technologies B.V. does not explicitly object to them or even if DiGidot Technologies B.V. unconditionally renders performance or accepts the customer performance irrespective of the customer conflicting or differing terms of business. The provisions of this paragraph equally apply insofar as the terms of business of the customer, irrespective of the contents of these International Conditions of Sale, deviate from statutory provisions.

1.4. These International Conditions of Sale do not apply, if the customer buys the goods for personal, family or household use and if DiGidot Technologies B.V. knew or should have known that at the conclusion of the contract.

2. Formation of the Contract

2.1. The customer is under an obligation to give written notice to DiGidot Technologies B.V. prior to the formation of a contract if the goods to be delivered are to be fit not only for normal use or will be used in circumstances which are unusual or which present a particular risk to health, safety or the environment, or which require a more demanding use.

2.2. Orders of the customer are to be put in writing. If the customer order deviates from the proposal or the tender submitted by DiGidot Technologies B.V., the customer will emphasize the differences as such. Illustrations and drawings just like the measures and weight indications featuring in DiGidot Technologies B.V.’s proposals or offers are only there as guidelines.

2.3. All orders, in particular also those received by employees of DiGidot Technologies B.V., will take effect exclusively if followed by a written acknowledgement of the order by DiGidot Technologies B.V.. The actual delivery of the goods ordered, any other conduct of DiGidot Technologies B.V. or silence on the part of DiGidot Technologies B.V. does not allow the customer to assume the formation of the contract. DiGidot Technologies B.V. can dispatch such written acknowledgement of the order up to and including 14 calendar days after the customer order has been received by DiGidot Technologies B.V.. Until this time, the customer order is irrevocable.

2.4. The written acknowledgement of the order shall be received in time, if it is received by the customer within 14 calendar days after its date of printing. The customer will inform DiGidot Technologies B.V. without delay, if the written acknowledgement of the order is received with some delay.

2.5. The written acknowledgement of the order by DiGidot Technologies B.V. sets out all the terms of the contract and brings the contract into effect even if - except for the purchase price and the quantity to be delivered - the written acknowledgement deviates from the declarations of the customer in any other way, especially with reference to the exclusive application of these International Conditions of Sale. Particular wishes of the customer, namely warranties or Warranties with reference to the goods or the performance of the contract therefore require express written confirmation in every case. Regardless of the nature and extent of the deviations, the contract will only fail to come into existence if the customer specifies the deviations and objects to them in writing and the objection is received by DiGidot Technologies B.V. within a short time, at the latest seven calendar days after receipt of the written acknowledgement of the order by the customer.

2.6. DiGidot Technologies B.V.´s employees, commercial agents or other sales intermediaries are not authorized to dispense with the requirement of a written acknowledgement of the order by DiGidot Technologies B.V. or to make promises which differ from its content or warranties.

DiGidot Technologies B.V. shall also not be liable for any non-conformity with the contract occurring after the time the risk has passed.

In the event of notice not having been properly given, the customer may only rely on remedies if DiGidot Technologies B.V. has fraudulently concealed the lack of conformity with the contract or the deficiency in title. Statements by DiGidot Technologies B.V. as to the lack of conformity with the contract or as to the deficiency in title are for the purpose of explaining the factual position only, but do not entail any waiver by DiGidot Technologies B.V. of the requirement of proper notice.

The place of the arbitration shall be Zurich/Switzerland, the languages used in the arbitral proceedings shall be Dutch and/or English. However, DiGidot Technologies B.V. is also entitled instead of a claim in arbitration to bring an action before the national Courts in Amsterdam/Netherlands or at the customer's place of business, or before other courts having jurisdiction according to domestic or foreign law. Every claim or counterclaim by the customer before a national court is excluded.

12.5. If provisions of these International Conditions of Sale should be or become partly or wholly ineffective, the remaining arrangements will continue to apply. The parties are bound to replace the ineffective provision with a legally valid provision, as close as possible to the commercial meaning and purpose of the ineffective provision.

App (DiGidot C4)

By downloading or using the app, these terms will automatically apply to you – you should make sure therefore that you read them carefully before using the app. You’re not allowed to copy or modify the app, any part of the app, or our trademarks in any way. You’re not allowed to attempt to extract the source code of the app, and you also shouldn’t try to translate the app into other languages or make derivative versions. The app itself, and all the trademarks, copyright, database rights, and other intellectual property rights related to it, still belong to DiGidot.

DiGidot is committed to ensuring that the app is as useful and efficient as possible. For that reason, we reserve the right to make changes to the app or to charge for its services, at any time and for any reason. We will never charge you for the app or its services without making it very clear to you exactly what you’re paying for.

The DiGidot C4 app stores and processes personal data that you have provided to us, to provide our Service. It’s your responsibility to keep your phone and access to the app secure. We therefore recommend that you do not jailbreak or root your phone, which is the process of removing software restrictions and limitations imposed by the official operating system of your device. It could make your phone vulnerable to malware/viruses/malicious programs, compromise your phone’s security features and it could mean that the DiGidot C4 app won’t work properly or at all.

The app does use third-party services that declare their Terms and Conditions.

You should be aware that there are certain things that DiGidot will not take responsibility for. Certain functions of the app will require the app to have an active internet connection. The connection can be Wi-Fi or provided by your mobile network provider, but DiGidot cannot take responsibility for the app not working at full functionality if you don’t have access to Wi-Fi, and you don’t have any of your data allowance left.

If you’re using the app outside of an area with Wi-Fi, you should remember that the terms of the agreement with your mobile network provider will still apply. As a result, you may be charged by your mobile provider for the cost of data for the duration of the connection while accessing the app, or other third-party charges. In using the app, you’re accepting responsibility for any such charges, including roaming data charges if you use the app outside of your home territory (i.e. region or country) without turning off data roaming. If you are not the bill payer for the device on which you’re using the app, please be aware that we assume that you have received permission from the bill payer for using the app.

Along the same lines, DiGidot cannot always take responsibility for the way you use the app i.e. You need to make sure that your device stays charged – if it runs out of battery and you can’t turn it on to avail the Service, DiGidot cannot accept responsibility.

With respect to DiGidot’s responsibility for your use of the app, when you’re using the app, it’s important to bear in mind that although we endeavor to ensure that it is updated and correct at all times, we do rely on third parties to provide information to us so that we can make it available to you. DiGidot accepts no liability for any loss, direct or indirect, you experience as a result of relying wholly on this functionality of the app.

At some point, we may wish to update the app. The app is currently available on Android & iOS – the requirements for the both systems(and for any additional systems we decide to extend the availability of the app to) may change, and you’ll need to download the updates if you want to keep using the app. DiGidot does not promise that it will always update the app so that it is relevant to you and/or works with the Android & iOS version that you have installed on your device. However, you promise to always accept updates to the application when offered to you, We may also wish to stop providing the app, and may terminate use of it at any time without giving notice of termination to you. Unless we tell you otherwise, upon any termination, (a) the rights and licenses granted to you in these terms will end; (b) you must stop using the app, and (if needed) delete it from your device.
