These terms and conditions of sale are supplied to every possible client together with a quotation. By giving an order, the client accepts these General Terms and Conditions of Sale.

The prices quoted by BIM Ally are always exclusive of VAT and, unless specifically provided otherwise, are valid for thirty calendar days. The sale only takes place after BIM Ally has explicitly accepted the order.

All BIM Ally’ invoices are payable in cash by bank transfer, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

From the due date, interest may be demanded for any unpaid invoice by operation of law and without notice of default, equal to the legal interest rate increased by two percent. Additional damages may be claimed in the event of judicial collection equal to 10% with a minimum of 100 euros.

VI. Subsidies

When the participant calls upon grant measures and receives or uses the grant funds for the (partial) payment of an order, the client assumes exclusive responsibility for the accuracy of the information provided to the grantor.

IX. Early termination of the commission
