Article 1: General 1. In these General Terms and Conditions, the term “(the) customer” refers to any legal or natural person who negotiates and/or concludes agreements with ASR trading under the name ProNano Car & Truckwash Cosmetics, hereinafter: ‘ProNano’, with respect to the products to be supplied and services to be provided by ProNano. 2. These General Terms and Conditions apply to all of our proposals, offers, contracts performed or to be performed and agreements. ProNano expressly rejects the applicability of the customer’s own general terms and conditions or any other general terms and conditions. 3. Deviations from these General Terms and Conditions only bind ProNano if ProNano and the customer have agreed these deviations expressly in writing. 4. These conditions also apply to contracts with ProNano in which third parties are involved. 5. In the event one or more provisions of these General Terms and Conditions lapse, the other provisions of these General Terms and Conditions will continue to apply. If this is the case, the parties will consult in order to agree replacement provisions in which connection the purpose and purport of the original provision will be assumed as much as possible. 6. These conditions have been filed with the Chamber of Commerce where ProNano is registered. The version filed most recently or the version that applied at the moment the contract/agreement was concluded applies at all times.
Article 2: Agreements: 1. ProNano’s offers are based on the information provided by the customer. The customer guarantees that it has provided the information that is essential to the setup and performance of the contract or the supply of products and/or provision of services. 2. The offers drawn up by ProNano are without obligation and remain valid for 30 days unless indicated otherwise. ProNano is only bound by the offers if acceptance of such offers is confirmed by the customer within 30 days. A contract granted by the customer to ProNano does not bind ProNano until ProNano has confirmed this contract to the customer in writing. 3. In the event the customer wishes to make changes to the performance of the agreement after it has been concluded it will be up to ProNano to determine whether and, if so, subject to which (further) conditions such changes within the context of the agreement can still be accepted. 4. Changes to the agreement of any nature whatsoever will only be effective if they have been agreed in writing between ProNano and the customer. If the change results in higher costs, ProNano will have the right to charge these to the customer. 5. ProNano reserves the right in relevant cases to change the construction, appearance and composition of the products it supplies if and insofar as this does not essentially prejudice the agreed quality of the ordered products. 6. A combined quotation does not oblige ProNano to perform part of the contract against a proportionate part of the agreed price. 7. Offers do not apply automatically to future contracts.
Article 3: Prices and payments 1. The prices stated in the abovementioned offers are exclusive of VAT, other government levies and other costs incurred in connection with the contract, such as dispatch and insurance costs, unless indicated otherwise. 2. All levies and other costs as referred to in paragraph 1 are for the customer’s account. All transport and insurance costs are for the customer’s expense, unless the parties have expressly agreed otherwise. 3. All costs that must be incurred in order to realize that the products and sale are in accordance with the legislation and regulations that apply to the customer are fully for the customer’s account, which includes matters such as the translation of product labels. 4. Payment must be made upfront unless agreed otherwise in writing. The customer is not allowed to set off the payment due against a claim it considers it has against ProNano or suspend payment.
5. In the event the customer fails to pay any amount owed by it within the term set in respect thereof, the customer will be in default by operation of law without requiring further notice of default. The customer owes statutory interest plus 2% as from the invoice due date, which will be calculated per (part of the) month on the outstanding amount. ProNano also claims extrajudicial costs amounting to 15% of the invoice amount such subject to a minimum of EUR 50 without having to provide evidence thereof. The abovementioned costs are payable as from the moment at which the claim is transferred to a lawyer, bailiff or collection agency, irrespective of whether the customer is aware of this. 6. All possible other costs, both judicial and extrajudicial, incurred by ProNano in order to enforce compliance with the customer’s payment and other obligations are for the customer’s account.
Article 4: Orders and delivery 1. Orders may be placed via the ProNano webshop. Orders that have been placed must be paid immediately whereafter the order is prepared for dispatch.

Orders are always confirmed in writing to the customer. 2. Unless agreed otherwise, products are delivered ex ProNano warehouse. 3. ProNano will endeavor to comply with the agreed delivery time. Exceeding delivery times never entitles the customer to compensation of any damage with the exception of intent or gross negligence on the part of ProNano. 4. If it becomes clear that ProNano will not be able to perform within the delivery time agreed or indicated, it will notify the customer thereof without delay while stating the period by which the delivery time is expected to be exceeded. 5. The transport of all products, including those that are transported in ProNano’s name, is for the account and risk of the customer. 6. The provisions following from consumer law apply to the customer if the customer is a consumer, insofar as these General Terms and Conditions do not deviate therefrom and/or are allowed to deviate therefrom.

All products delivered remain the exclusive property of ProNano until the moment at which all ProNano’s claims against the customer arising from the agreement and in connection with a failure to comply with such agreements, have been paid in full by the customer. 2. The customer does not have the right to pledge or otherwise encumber the items of property covered by the retention of title. 3.

Minor deviations in quality, dimensions and color that are permissible in accordance with normal business practice and normal wear of products or parts thereof cannot result in claims on the basis of this article.
