Onder wij/ons wordt verstaan:
Allen gevestigd en kantoorhoudende te 9320 Erembodegem aan Korte Keppestraat 23 – 1
EN alle daaraan gelieerde ondernemingen, voor zover zij deze voorwaarden op transacties van toepassing hebben verklaard.
De wederpartij zal, indien bij het afsluiten van een transactie geen termijn is overeengekomen binnen welke door hem dient te worden afgenomen, binnen een week, nadat de goederen voor afname gereed staan, moeten afnemen. Bij niet-afname binnen de overeengekomen termijn, zowel in het ene als in het andere geval, zal de wederpartij van rechtswege, derhalve zonder sommatie of ingebrekestelling, in gebreke en verzuim zijn. De wederpartij is verplicht alle onkosten of verliezen, inclusief opslagkosten, te vergoeden welke voortvloeien uit zijn weigering om de goederen af te nemen. Wij hebben verder het recht te onzer keuze hetzij nakoming te vorderen hetzij de transactie zonder tussenkomst van enige rechter als ontbonden te beschouwen, onverminderd ons recht op (aanvullende) schadevergoeding jegens de wederpartij.
Dit recht hebben wij door enkel het plaatsvinden van één der bovengenoemde omstandigheden, zonder dat enige waarschuwing of ingebrekestelling of rechterlijke tussenkomst vereist zal zijn. De opdrachtgever is echter niet gerechtigd tot korting of verrekening, tenzij zulks uitdrukkelijk en schriftelijk door ons is toegestaan.
Tenzij uitdrukkelijk anders overeengekomen, geldt een transactie, die tussen partijen voortdurende verbintenissen in het leven roept, voor onbepaalde tijd, behoudens opzegging. Opzegging door de wederpartij kan alleen schriftelijk geschieden doormiddel van een aangetekende brief aan ons en met inachtneming van een opzegtermijn van twee maanden, niet eerder ingaand dan op de dag na datum van ontvangst van die mededeling.
Alle geschillen tussen partijen, ook die welke slechts door één der partijen als zodanig worden beschouwd, zullen worden beslecht door de bevoegde rechter van de plaats onzer vestiging, thans zijnde Erembodegem, onverminderd ons recht om de wettelijk of bij verdrag bevoegde rechter te kiezen.
1.1 Copaco grants the Reseller or a third party to be appointed by the Reseller access to its “Closed System”, namely the closed part of its Internet site and/or part of its ERP system, by providing unique identification codes including organisation identification codes and/or login names and passwords.
1.2 Agreements may be made between the parties on the Closed System, including agreements under which products, services and licences are sold to the Reseller and wherein information is provided concerning these products, services and licences.
1.3 The Reseller will appoint one person as Manager* to manage access rights to the Closed System. Copaco grants the Manager the right to admit users and to grant or withdraw user rights to or from such users, such as inter alia access to information or the conclusion of agreements, including drop shipment rights.
1.4 The cost of implementing and maintaining access to the Closed System and telecommunication charges will be borne by the Reseller.
2.1 An agreement on the Closed System is created following written confirmation of the order on the Copaco Closed System to the Reseller.
2.2 Written confirmation may also comprise an electronic report, in which case evidence of despatch of this report to the Reseller will also be regarded as evidence of a declaration received by the Reseller. In that case, possible failure of such confirmation to arrive or do so in time will be regarded as the consequence of the Reseller’s own actions, of actions by persons for whom the Reseller is responsible or of other circumstances affecting the Reseller and justifying the Reseller’s bearing the consequences.
2.3 Insofar as applicable national law so permits, the parties hereby agree that in the event of a dispute, the electronic recording of a report despatched or received or the reproduction of such a recording will form legal proof of the facts contained therein unless proved to the contrary.
2.4 The Reseller recognises that each purchase order placed on the Closed System for which an Identification Code provided by Copaco is used or mentioned is a valid, binding purchase order and is the equivalent of a signed purchaser order, excluding any doubt.
2.5 The parties expressly waive any right to challenge the validity of an order created by electronic means purely by virtue of the fact that the agreement was made electronically.
2.6 The Reseller is responsible at all times for the proper use of the identification codes provided by Copaco and the user rights assigned to or withdrawn from the users. The Reseller undertakes to discharge all agreements made in the way described in paragraph 1. The Reseller may ask Copaco in writing – by means of a letter sent to Copaco signed by a person entitled to represent the Reseller – to remove the management of access rights from the Manager and Copaco will then make every effort to meet this request as rapidly as possible, but this will not change the Reseller’s responsibilities as described above or its liability to comply with agreements.
2.7 The Reseller undertakes to ensure correct supply of data submitted to it, including address and e-mail data, and to keep Copaco advised of changes at all times.
2.8 Copaco is entitled not to execute an order at any time should compelling reasons [so prevent], including inter alia insufficient credit limit, incorrect or incomplete information, garbling, delay, misrouting, and unauthorised examination, alteration and/or despatch of an order.
3.1 The agreement is made for an indeterminate period but either party may cancel it at any time. It can be cancelled in writing by the Reseller by means of a letter sent to Copaco signed by a person entitled to represent the Reseller. Copaco is entitled to terminate the agreement and to refuse access to the Closed System with immediate effect, without stating its reasons in advance. Copaco is not required to repay and/or credit sums already paid or due at the time cancellation is received. Cancellation of this agreement will not affect any further agreements already concluded between the parties on the basis of this agreement up to cancellation date.
4.1 The trademarks and data (e.g. of content providers) used and/or displayed on the Copaco Closed System may in no way whatever be used by the Reseller without the prior consent in writing of the intellectual or other owner or keeper of the trademarks and/or data.
4.2 Any data provided to the Reseller is intended exclusively for own use by the Reseller and may therefore be divulged to third parties or publicised in any form whatever only with Copaco’s prior consent in writing.
5.1 The Reseller undertakes both during the currency of this agreement and following its expiry, avoidance or dissolution to make any communication directly or indirectly to third parties in any form and to any extent whatever of or concerning any features, Copaco company/companies or the cooperative arrangements between the parties or connected therewith only with Copaco’s prior consent in writing. The parties declare that they will be bound by the contents of this provision at all times, even if and insofar as this agreement is wholly or partly dissolved or avoided.
6.1 The Reseller agrees to Copaco collecting data that may identify users of the Closed System. Copaco declares these data will be used exclusively for the correct execution of agreements created through the Closed System, to improve services, and to understand and process personal requirements and requests.
6.2 Copaco declares that it recognises and will respect responsibility for the use of personal data and will not share them with other firms without the Reseller’s consent.
7.1 The information on the Closed System is reserved at all times. The Reseller may derive no rights from this. The Reseller is fully responsible for all transactions and other action undertaken on the basis of this information.
7.2 Copaco is not liable for the direct and/or indirect consequences or damage resulting from inability by the Reseller to consult information or to use opportunities to place orders on the Closed System.
7.3 Certain links on the Closed System lead to sources of information kept by third parties and over which Copaco has no control. Copaco therefore accepts no liability for accuracy, for the collection of personal data or for any other aspect of the information on such websites.
8.1 Copaco’s general conditions apply to this agreement and to the agreements concluded in the way governed by this agreement, as deposited with the Chamber of Commerce at Eindhoven as number 17048595, unless indicated otherwise in writing. The Reseller declares it is familiar with and has received a copy of these general conditions and agrees to their contents.
9.1 All disputes arising from or connected with this agreement, including those regarded as such by one of the parties only, will be settled by the competent court at Copaco’s place of establishment, namely Eindhoven at present, irrespective of Copaco’s rights to opt for the court with statutory or contractual jurisdiction.
9.2 All legal relations between the parties resulting from this agreement will be exclusively governed by Dutch law, as applicable to the Kingdom in Europe.

To approach you via email for marketing purposes of Copaco, Copaco always requests your prior consent, unless it concerns offers about products similar to those that you have ordered.

Our subsidiaries and business units will use your Personal Data in a manner consistent with this Privacy Statement.
5.3. Applying for vacancies via LinkedIn or Indeed:
5.3.1. Applying from your LinkedIn account:
If you are busy and want to apply at lightning speed, you can do so within 10 seconds. If you press the “apply via LinkedIn” button, you give LinkedIn permission to send your data to us. The entry fields will then be completed immediately with the exception of your telephone number. However, LinkedIn sends us more! And it is important that you know so. Your photo, your headline, your summary of your profile are shared. Rather than your CV, LinkedIn sends us a PDF of almost your full LinkedIn account (more precisely: location, skills, experience and training). LinkedIn also sends the URL of your LinkedIn account. Very handy and “with it”, but if you want more control over what you share with us, it is better to apply in the usual way. That will take you a maximum of 1 minute.
5.3.2. Applying from your Indeed account:
If you are busy and want to apply at lightning speed, you can do so within 10 seconds. If you press the “apply via Indeed” button, you give Indeed permission to send your data to us. The entry fields will then be completed immediately with the exception of your telephone number. However, Indeed sends us more! And it is important that you know so. Your photo, your current position and CV are shared. Handy, but if you want more control over what you share with us, it is better to apply in the usual way. That will take you a maximum of 1 minute.
6.2. Copaco stores your Personal Data on servers in the European Economic Area (EEA). If and insofar as Copaco stores Personal Data with parties in countries that do not have an adequate level of protection, it will agree with these parties standard data protection provisions as set by the European Commission. A copy of the agreed standard provisions is available on request from: compliance@copaco.com.
7.1. Copaco does not store your Personal Data any longer than strictly necessary for the purposes for which it collects the Personal Data or, if relevant, for the minimal fiscal retention period. If you have any questions about the retention periods, you can contact Copaco’s compliance officer by sending an email to the following address: compliance@copaco.com.
7.2. You may request Copaco to delete your Personal Data earlier. If the Personal Data is no longer required for the purposes for which Copaco collected it or otherwise processed the Personal Data, Copaco will remove the Personal Data.
