​

ARTICLE 10. LIABILITY
10.1. Every agreement between SolSync and the client can be characterized as an obligation agreement. SolSync can therefore never be held liable for unachieved results. 10.2. The client is and remains at all times responsible for carrying out actions as acquired during a course, program, or online program.
10.3. The content of the online programs and courses is not intended to replace medical advice from a general practitioner, medical specialist, treating psychologist, or psychiatrist. If the client is under the care of a psychologist, psychiatrist, or other (para)medical professional, SolSync advises following the advice of said individuals. The use of the course and any decisions made as a result of the program and/or course are the sole responsibility of the client. SolSync accepts no liability in any form. The free content, courses, and programs are not a substitute for basic or specialist mental healthcare.
10.4. If, contrary to Article 10.1, SolSync, represented by Veronique de Leon, is nevertheless held liable, any liability is limited to the compensation of direct damages up to a maximum of 1 times the amount of the price agreed upon for that agreement (excluding VAT). This amount shall not exceed €800,- and in any case shall be limited at all times to the maximum amount that the insurer pays to SolSync in the respective case. In the case of a continuing agreement, any liability is limited to compensation for direct damages up to a maximum of the amount of the last invoice paid by the client.
10.5. In addition to Article 10.4, SolSync is then only liable for direct damages. Direct damages are exclusively understood to mean: • reasonable costs to determine the cause and extent of the damage, insofar as the determination relates to damage within the meaning of these terms and conditions: • any reasonable costs incurred to remedy the defective performance of SolSync under the agreement, insofar as these can be attributed to SolSync: • reasonable costs incurred to prevent or limit damage, insofar as the client demonstrates that these costs have led to limitation of direct damage as referred to in this article.
10.6. SolSync excludes any liability for indirect damages suffered through the use of services and/or products supplied by SolSync, except in situations where the damage is due to deliberate actions on the part of SolSync.
10.7. In any case, SolSync is never liable for: consequential damages, damage due to missed savings, damage due to business interruption, loss of profit, and for damages arising from loss of data during the execution of the agreement.
10.8. The client indemnifies SolSync against all claims for damages that third parties may assert in respect of damage that has arisen in any way through the unlawful or negligent use of the products and services supplied by SolSync to the contracting party.
10.9. If the client is dealing with physical health, psychiatric and/or personality problems, they are also advised to resolve this with the help of treatments in (mental) healthcare. If the client nevertheless starts a course or online program, it is advised to discuss this first with the treating (para)medical professional.
10.10. In cases of complaints regarding suicide, SolSync advises/refers the client to specialized medical care and cannot in any case be held liable for any consequences of not contacting a (para)medical professional. When this is known to SolSync, it will always be advised to seek help through a general practitioner or mental healthcare.

​

​

ARTICLE 11. INTERRUPTION OF SERVICES AND FORCE MAJEURE
11.1. SolSync shall not be held to its obligations under the agreement if performance has become impossible due to force majeure. If the force majeure persists for a period of 60 days, both parties are entitled to terminate the agreement. That which has already been performed pursuant to the agreement shall then be settled in proportion.
11.2. SolSync's activities depend on the cooperation, services, and deliveries of third parties over which SolSync has little or no influence. SolSync cannot therefore be held liable in any way for any damage arising from a situation in which the failure is attributable to a third party with whom SolSync has entered into an agreement.
11.3. In addition to what is stipulated in clause 11.2, force majeure shall also be understood to mean everything in law and jurisprudence that is accepted as such.
11.4. Force majeure within these general terms and conditions is understood to mean any circumstance beyond the control of SolSync - even if this circumstance was foreseeable at the time the agreement was concluded - that permanently or temporarily prevents the performance of the agreement, including but not limited to: strikes, excessive absenteeism due to illness of SolSync personnel, transportation difficulties, fire, government measures, epidemics, pandemics, business disruptions at SolSync, default by SolSync's suppliers resulting in SolSync being unable to (further) fulfill its obligations towards the client, as well as other serious disruptions in SolSync's business or that of its suppliers.
11.5. In the event of force majeure, SolSync also has the option to extend the delivery period by the duration of the force majeure or to terminate the agreement, insofar as it has not yet been performed, without SolSync being obliged to pay any compensation, except as provided for in Article 78 of Book 6 of the Civil Code.

 


ARTICLE 12. DURATION OF AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION
12.1. The agreement is entered into for a fixed term, unless otherwise stated in the quotation or if the parties have expressly and mutually agreed otherwise in writing.
12.2. The right of interim termination of the agreement by the client is excluded, without prejudice to the other provisions stipulated in these general terms and conditions.
12.3. Both parties, both the client and SolSync, shall only have the right to terminate the agreement if the other party, after a proper and detailed written notice of default specifying a reasonable period for remedying the default, fails to fulfill its material obligations under the agreement.
12.4. In derogation of the provisions of article 8.3, SolSync may terminate the agreement, in whole or in part, by written notice with immediate effect, without notice of default and without judicial intervention, if urgent reasons arise, including but not limited to the cases where: • the client is granted (provisional) suspension of payments; • bankruptcy is applied for or declared with respect to the client; • there is reason to believe that the client will not be able to meet its payment obligations upon renewal of the agreement; • the client acts contrary to public order or morality, or any obligation arising from the agreement with SolSync; • the client infringes upon the rights of third parties; • the client acts contrary to reasonable guidelines or instructions from SolSync; • the client does not respond to correspondence by email, telephone, and/or written communication, whether or not by registered mail; • in case of recurring payment problems. SolSync shall never be liable for any damages due to a termination as stipulated in this article.
12.5. If, at the time of termination as referred to in articles 12.3 and 12.4, the client has already received performances for the execution of the agreement, these performances and the related payment obligation shall not be subject to reversal. Amounts invoiced by SolSync before the termination in connection with what it has already performed or delivered under the agreement shall remain due and payable immediately upon termination, notwithstanding the foregoing.
12.6. SolSync reserves the right to amend its general terms and conditions, including for existing agreements. If SolSync decides to amend the conditions, it shall inform the client accordingly. The client is then free to terminate the agreement from the moment the new general terms and conditions take effect or up to a maximum of 7 days after the entry into force of these new general terms and conditions.

 


ARTICLE 13. CONFORMITY
13.1. SolSync shall, in the performance of the agreement, strive to achieve the intended results as agreed upon in the quotation to the best of its ability. If, in the opinion of the client, the delivered results do not correspond to the intended results agreed upon in the quotation, the client and SolSync shall enter into consultation to ensure that the delivered results meet the intended outcomes.
13.2. In addition to what is stipulated in Article 13.1, the costs for additional work as referred to in that article shall be invoiced to the client at SolSync's normal rate, unless the client can reasonably demonstrate to SolSync's satisfaction that the deviations in the result are due to the deficient performance of the agreement on the part of SolSync.
13.3. Should it be determined that the deficiencies in the services and/or products to be delivered by SolSync are attributable to SolSync, the client shall have no right to compensation or termination of the agreement, except as provided in these terms and conditions.

​

​

ARTICLE 14. SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR SOLSYNC'S PROGRAMS, WORKSHOPS AND/OR TRAININGS
14.1. The client is expressly prohibited, regardless of participation, from offering or having a similar program or course provided, whether or not referring to or following SolSync's method.
14.2. The client cannot derive any rights or obligations from the program or course, and any actions taken by the client are at their own risk. SolSync accepts no liability for how the client implements the methods and techniques taught by SolSync in practice.
14.3. SolSync is entitled, if the client is in default of its payment obligation to SolSync, to suspend participation until the client has fulfilled its payment obligation.

14.5. SolSync shall not be liable for any potential consequences of undergoing an (online) program/course or workshop. SolSync reserves the right to suspend the service until contact has been made with a medical specialist, physician, or psychiatrist. The undergoing of parts of the program/course or workshop(s) falls entirely under the customer's own risk.
14.6. SolSync reserves the right to remove participants from workshops, training, or (online) programs if their behavior obstructs the workshop, training, or (online) program. Refund of paid funds is excluded in this case.

​

ARTICLE 15. OTHER PROVISIONS AND APPLICABLE LAW
