These general terms and conditions shall apply to all offers and agreements resulting therefrom between Tomahawk B.V. of Nijmegen, Netherlands, Chamber of Commerce 59760850 and its counterparties ("Client").

Provisions or conditions made by the Client which deviate from, or do not appear in, these terms and conditions shall only be binding on Tomahawk B.V. if and to the extent expressly accepted in writing.

  1. Tomahawk B.V. will prepare a quotation in which Tomahawk B.V. will indicate what work ("the Services") Tomahawk B.V. offers to perform, what is included in the Services and what amount will be due for them. Only the description of the Services indicated in the quotation is binding.

This also applies when the Client requests Tomahawk B.V. to perform certain work without waiting for a formal quotation.
  6. Changing the Services is only possible with the agreement of both parties, except as otherwise provided elsewhere in these terms and conditions. Tomahawk B.V. will perform requested additional work at its usual hourly rate. Any additional work will be indicated in advance.

4. Development of works

  1. If a Service extends to the development, configuration and/or adaptation of Works, Tomahawk B.V. shall, unless otherwise agreed, be entitled to use images, software and components of third parties in the development, configuration or adaptation of Works.

The parties shall also impose this obligation on their employees as well as third parties engaged by them for the execution of the agreement.
  2. Tomahawk B.V. will make every effort to avoid taking cognizance of data stored and/or disseminated by the Client through the hardware or software to which the Services relate, unless this is necessary for the proper performance of the agreement or Tomahawk B.V. is required to do so under a statutory provision or court order. In that case Tomahawk B.V. will make every effort to limit the knowledge of the data as much as possible, to the extent within its power.

  3. In the event of liability under subsection 1, the maximum amount Tomahawk B.V. is obliged to compensate will be equal to what was paid for the twelve months preceding the month in which the harmful event occurred. This maximum amount will lapse if and to the extent the damage is the result of intent or gross negligence of Tomahawk B.V.
  4. Tomahawk B.V.'s liability for attributable failure to perform the agreement will arise only if the Client gives Tomahawk B.V. immediate and proper notice of default in writing, whereby a reasonable period is set to remedy the failure, and Tomahawk B.V. continues to fail attributably in the performance of its obligations even after that period. The notice of default must contain as detailed as possible a description of the failure, so that Tomahawk B.V. is able to respond adequately.

To this end, it must notify the Client at least two months before the adjustments or extensions will take effect. However, amendments to the general conditions can never set aside a specific agreement.

  2. If any provision of this agreement proves to be void, this shall not affect the validity of the entire agreement.
