If the changed circumstances are attributable to the Consumer, any costs resulting from these changed circumstances will be charged to the Consumer.

- The Consumer is obliged to report any inaccuracies in the payment details provided or stated to De Landrovers BV without delay.

Article 14. Suspension, dissolution and (interim) termination of long-term agreements

- De Landrovers BV is entitled to compensation for damage, including costs, directly and indirectly incurred if the dissolution is attributable to the Consumer.

- If it is established that a complaint submitted by the Consumer is unfounded, the costs incurred by De Landrovers BV, including research costs, shall be borne by the Consumer.
Article 16. Liability

- De Landrovers BV’s liability for indirect damage, including consequential damage, loss of profit, lost savings and damage due to business stagnation, is excluded at all times. De Landrovers BV can only be liable for direct damage caused by an attributable shortcoming in the fulfilment of the obligation(s) arising from the agreement. Direct damage is understood to mean the reasonable costs incurred to determine the cause and extent of the damage, insofar as the determination relates to the damage within the meaning of the General terms and donditions, any reasonable costs incurred to ensure that De Landrovers BV’s defective performance complies with the agreement, insofar as these can be attributed to De Landrovers BV, and reasonable costs incurred to prevent or limit damage, insofar as the consumer demonstrates that these costs have led to the limitation of direct damage as referred to in the General Terms and Conditions.
- De Landrovers BV’s liability for any failure to perform the agreement, as well as for any wrongful act, is limited to the amount that the Consumer has paid De Landrovers BV in respect of the products ordered and/or is still owed De Landrovers BV in respect of the loss-causing event to which the liability relates or to which it relates, with a maximum – if higher and to the extent applicable – of in addition the amount that the Consumer has incurred in costs and which costs are inextricably linked to the failure to perform or wrongful act.
- The Consumer must submit a claim for compensation to De Landrovers BV no later than twelve months after the Consumer discovers the damage, failing which the right to compensation will lapse.
Article 17. Force majeure
- De Landrovers BV shall not be obliged to comply with any obligation if it is prevented from doing so as a result of a circumstance for which it is not to blame and which is not for its account under the law, a legal act or a generally accepted opinion.
- During the period of force majeure, De Landrovers BV may suspend the obligations arising from the agreement between the consumer and it. If this period lasts longer than two months, either party is entitled to terminate the Agreement, without any obligation to compensate the other party for damages. If the situation referred to above occurs when the Agreement has been partially executed, the Consumer is obliged to fulfil his obligations towards De Landrovers BV until that moment. De Landrovers BV is then entitled to invoice the part already fulfilled or to be fulfilled separately. The Consumer is obliged to pay this invoice as if it were a separate agreement.
- In the General terms and conditions, ‘force majeure’, in addition to what is understood by law and case law in this respect, means all external causes, foreseen or unforeseen, on which De Landrovers BV cannot or could not reasonably have had any influence and which prevent De Landrovers BV from fulfilling its obligations. This includes strikes at De Landrovers BV. De Landrovers BV is also entitled to invoke force majeure if the circumstance that makes (further) performance of the agreement (permanently) impossible occurs after De Landrovers BV should have performed its obligation.

- Both De Landrovers BV and the consumer will only appeal to the court after they have made every effort to settle a dispute in mutual consultation.
