Article 3. Offers and Quotations

1. All offers and quotations from Slinger BV are revocable and made without obligation, unless expressly stated otherwise in writing.
2. The Client is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the requirements and specifications of the performance provided by or on behalf of the Client to Slinger BV, as well as other data on which Slinger BV bases its offer.

4. The content and scope of the Services to be delivered are solely determined by the description of the Services given in the quotation and order confirmation.
5. The prices in the offers and quotations from Slinger BV are exclusive of VAT and other government levies, unless otherwise indicated.

Article 4. Conclusion of the Agreement

1. An Agreement is concluded from the moment Slinger BV has received the signed quotation from the Client, or when the Client unequivocally confirms in writing to agree to Slinger BV’s quotation, or when Slinger BV, with the consent of the Client, initiates the execution of the actions, or when Slinger BV has received the first payment from an invoice sent by Slinger BV based on a (not yet signed) quotation or Agreement.
2. Adjustments to the Agreement after it has been concluded must be agreed upon in writing. Slinger BV is not obliged to change an already concluded Agreement at the request of the Client and reserves the right to charge the Client for any costs associated with changing the Agreement.

Article 5. Subscriptions

1. In order to use the Widget, the Client must subscribe to a Subscription with Slinger BV. The scope of the Subscription and the Services included will be clearly stated by Slinger BV in the offer.

Article 6. Execution of the Work and Time Scheduling

1. Upon acceptance by the Client of the quote or Agreement, the project will be included in Slinger BV’s planning. The planning corresponds to the time Slinger BV needs to perform the work.
2. Slinger BV will execute the Agreement to the best of its knowledge and ability and in accordance with the requirements of good craftsmanship.
3. If Slinger BV requires Content from the Client for the execution of the Agreement, the time scheduling starts after the Client has provided all necessary Content to Slinger BV.
4. If it is agreed that the execution of the Agreement will take place in phases, Slinger BV is entitled to postpone the commencement of the services belonging to the next phase until the Client has approved the results of the preceding phase in writing.
5. Only if explicitly agreed upon in writing, Slinger BV is obliged to follow timely and reasonable instructions from the Client in the execution of the Agreement. Slinger BV is not obligated to follow instructions that change or supplement the content or scope of the Agreement; however, if such instructions are followed by Slinger BV, the relevant work will be invoiced to the Client at the usual rate.
6. If Slinger BV has specified a time schedule for the execution, it shall only be indicative. A specified time schedule shall never be considered a strict deadline. In of the event that the time schedule is exceeded, the Client must formally notify Slinger BV in writing. Slinger BV should be given a reasonable period to still fulfill the Agreement. Slinger BV is not liable for any loss suffered by the Client or penalties imposed on the Client if the assignment or work is not completed within the specified period or delivered.
7. Given the nature of the work, the desired end result is not only dependent on the effort of Slinger BV and the Client, however, also on factors beyond their control. Slinger BV will do its best to achieve the intended result. However, this does not guarantee that the intended end result will actually be achieved. Slinger BV is consequently only obliged to make an effort, not to achieve a specific result.
8. If the commencement or progress of the work is delayed due to factors for which the Client is responsible, the specified execution periods will be adjusted proportionally, and any resulting costs and damages for Slinger BV must be reimbursed by the Client.

Article 7. Design and Implementation of the Widget

2. Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, the Client has one rectification round to evaluate and approve or reject the delivered design.
3. The Client must evaluate and approve or reject the delivered Work within 5 days after delivery. The Work shall have been accepted once:a. The Client has accepted the delivery in writing or verbally;b. The Client uses the delivered Work for production purposes, including but not limited to transferring the Works to a public or production environment;c.The Client does not reject the delivered Work within 5 days, does not request a rectification round, or does not object to delivery.
4. If the Client does not respond within 5 days to a final rectification round, the Work is deemed to have been delivered to the satisfaction of the Client according to the agreed specifications.
5. If a Work is delivered in phases, the Client must give approval or rejection of the part of the Work for that phase after delivery, as determined in the previous paragraph. The Client may not base approval or rejection in a later phase on aspects that were approved in an earlier phase.
6. If the Client partially or wholly rejects the delivered Work, Slinger BV will make efforts to remedy the reason for rejection as soon as possible. Slinger BV can do so by rectifying the result or by rejecting the cause stating reasons. The Client will then have a period of 5 working days to approve or reject the rectification or motivation.
7. If, after the first rectification or motivation, the Client rejects the delivered partially or entirely, this will be followed by the additional rectification rounds agreed upon in the quote or Agreement.
8. If a Party states that further rectifications are no longer considered useful, both Parties are entitled to terminate the Agreement regarding the rejected part. In this case, the Client will reimburse the actual hours spent by Slinger BV, up to a maximum of the amount quoted for the rejected part. However, the Client is not entitled to use the rejected part in any way. Slinger BV can only terminate after having stated, after a rectification or motivation, that it is the last one, and the Client rejects this wholly or partly as well.
9. Any desired changes to Works must be submitted by the Client, item by item, in writing. Slinger BV will then assess whether these activities are covered by the Agreement, or will be quoted separately as additional work.

The Client is responsible for all actions performed from the Client’s Account, including unauthorized use.

3. If the Client wishes to expand the number of Events that can be added per month, year, or period, the Subscription may need to be adjusted accordingly. The Client will contact Slinger BV for information on the possibilities.
4. Changes to Events already added to the Widget are considered additional work and may be invoiced by Slinger BV at the applicable rates.

1. The assignment includes only the agreements made between the Parties. Additional and less work ordered before or during the execution of the work will be invoiced or credited by Slinger BV to the Client at the prevailing rates. Slinger BV is entitled to invoice additional work immediately upon completion.

   1. in case of changes to the original Agreement;

   3. if the Client has provided incorrect or incomplete Content to Slinger BV, and the work performed must be wholly or partially redone;
   4. in case of instructions by or on behalf of the government based on legal regulations or decisions, insofar as these could not reasonably be foreseen before or at the conclusion of the Agreement;
