1.0 Definitions

  • User = every natural person using the platform. Using also means solely gathering information.
  • Registered user = a user that, through registering, has registered a username. These users have their own community account.

2.0 General

  1. The community platform (and all its components), is a service by Infoland. The use of the community is free for both Infoland’s customers and prospects.

Furthermore, the user must have familiarised themselves with – and follow – the general terms and conditions and the house rules laid down in the (if applicable) specific FAQs of the diverse components of the community platform. The user is not allowed to behave themselves in such a way that may cause nuisance to other users. Violation of these rules may lead to a temporary or permanent ban from the entire community platform (and its associated activities).
  6. Infoland reserves the right to deny a user access to the community platform – in whole or in part and temporarily or permanently – at any time, without providing a reason.

  1. A user is fully liable for all damages, direct or indirect and both tangible and intangible, arising from the user’s actions and conduct.

However, Infoland will then change the user from a registered user to an anonymous user.
  3. If the user’s access has been denied, a request can be made to the community platform to cancel the account. Infoland will then perform these actions for the user.

8.0 Unforeseen circumstances and closing provisions

The only agreed-upon terms and conditions between Infoland and the users are the terms and conditions as stated in this document.
    5. Dutch or European Law applies exclusively to all offers, agreements, deliveries, and conditions. If any provision of these terms and conditions is invalid or nullified, the remaining provisions of the terms and conditions will remain in full force and Infoland and the user will enter into consultation to agree on new provisions to replace the invalid or nullified provisions, taking into account as much as possible the purpose and intent of the invalid or nullified provisions.
