The VanMoof General Terms and Conditions of Sale – Business to Consumer (Terms and Conditions) apply to the purchase and use of the Theft Proof Service, unless the application of a certain clause conflicts with this annex or if a certain clause can by nature not be applicable to the Theft Proof Service. Where the Terms and Conditions apply to the Theft Proof Service and the text of the Terms and Conditions refers to a "Product" instead of Product "Theft Proof Service" should be read. 

2. The theft proof service

   1. Theft Proof Service is a service provided by VanMoof that improves the chances for Consumers that have purchased a Product to get their Product back in the event it gets stolen. The Theft Proof Service works as follows:

      1. When a Product goes missing, Consumer marks the Product as stolen in the App;

      2. Consumer files a police report and shares it with VanMoof;

      3. The Product will go into 'stolen-mode' and a tracking link will be shared with Consumer to help him find the Product himself; there is a 'best efforts' obligation for Consumers to use the tracking link to look for the Product.

      4. If bike hunters from VanMoof are available in the area of Consumer, they might help finding the Product;

      5. If the Product is not found within fourteen days after the Product was marked as stolen and Consumer has fulfilled its other obligations, VanMoof will replace the Product and

      6. In that event, the replacement Product will be delivered to Consumer's address by VanMoof free of charge. The replacement Product will at least be in equal state and condition as the original Product at the time of being reported stolen. 

      7. The warranty period that started when purchasing the Product that was stolen still applies, receiving a replacement Product will not renew the warranty period. 

   2. Theft Proof Service is connected to an individual Product. If Consumer has multiple Products and wishes to use Theft Proof Service for all of them, he has to purchase Theft Proof Service for all of them individually.

   3. Theft Proof Service is only available for the following models of the Products: model SX3, SA5 and later models. For earlier models of the Products, Theft Proof Service is not available. VanMoof may adjust the list of models for which the Theft Proof Service is available. If Consumer has purchased Theft Proof Service for his Product, VanMoof cannot guarantee that Theft Proof Service will be available for that Product the next year as well. 

   4. Theft Proof Service is only available within Service Areas. VanMoof is not responsible for replacing Products under the Theft Proof Service that are stolen outside of Service Areas. If Consumer moves outside of a Service Area, the Consumer is not entitled to a refund for the Theft Proof Service.

   5. If a Product is found within fourteen days after it was marked as stolen and Consumer has fulfilled its other obligations, Consumer gets his Product back in the state it was recovered. In the event the Product was damaged during the time it was stolen, VanMoof will not cover any costs to repair or service the Product. Damages that are covered under warranty, will be covered under that warranty and not under the Theft Proof Service.

   6. If, within the fourteen days of the Product being reported missing by Consumer to VanMoof, the Product is found by the police, this is covered under the Theft Proof Service and article 2.5 applies. Consumer is responsible for picking up the Product from the police.

   7. If a stolen Product is found after Consumer has already received a replacement Product, Consumer is obliged to return the Product that was stolen to VanMoof and transfer back the ownership thereof to VanMoof, unless the stolen Product was found within 28 days after the Product being reported as missing. In that event, Consumer is obliged to return the replacement Product to VanMoof and transfer back the ownership thereof to VanMoof. In the event that a Product is recovered 14 days after the initial search period of 14 days has ended and a replacement Product is ordered, but not delivered, we reserve the right to cancel the delivery and return the recovered product.

   8. The Theft Proof Service does not include any service of VanMoof with regard to (the loss of) accessories, including the VanMoof Power Bank or other equipment attached to the Product, regardless of whether those are stolen together with the Product or separately.

3. Rules for the Theft Proof Service

   1. For the use of the Theft Proof Service, Consumer requires access to a mobile device and to the App. The Theft Proof Service is strictly personal. Consumer is obliged to provide VanMoof with all the information that is needed for the purchase and use of the Theft Proof Service. Consumer keeps such information updated and accurate throughout the term of the Theft Proof Service. If this information is incorrect, Consumer will not be able to make use of the purchased Theft Proof Service.

   2. In the use of the Theft Proof Service, Consumer agrees to refrain from all of the following activities:

      1. Attempting to interfere with or compromise the system integrity or security of the servers running the Theft Proof Service;

      2. Interfering with the proper working of the Theft Proof Service;

   3. If Consumer breaches any of his obligations mentioned in article 3.2 or if VanMoof has reason to suspect Consumer to be in breach of article 3.2, VanMoof may, at its discretion, permanently or temporarily restrict Consumer's access to the Theft Proof Service without notice and without incurring any liability towards Consumer. In this event, VanMoof has the right to suspend or terminate Consumer's account for the Theft Proof Service. This article leaves VanMoof's right to claim damages because of breaches by Consumer of the obligations mentioned in article 3.2 unaffected.

   4. Consumer will not be entitled to the use of Theft Proof Service in the following events:

      1. Consumer has deliberately left his Product unlocked or unattended when the Product was stolen, unless Consumer can demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of VanMoof that other precautions were taken to protect his Product;

      2. Consumer did not lock his Product with the lock provided by VanMoof when the Product was stolen;

      3. Consumer failed to carry out firmware updates and maintain parts critical to the security system of the Product.

      4. Any software, application or other material from a party other than VanMoof that was downloaded to the Product by Consumer or by a third party with the permission of Consumer malfunctioned when the Product was stolen;

      5. The Product was stolen through the effect of any virus, "back door", "time bomb", "Trojan horse", "drop dead device" or other malware on Consumer's equipment;

      6. The Product was confiscated or removed by any government or public authority;

      7. Unauthorized adjustment, alteration or servicing of the Product by Consumer or a third party that is not VanMoof or a VP; or

      8. The Product went missing in events of war, invasion, hostilities, terrorism, rebellion, riots, vandalism, demonstrations or revolution;

   5. Consumer will have no Theft Proof Service for the following situations:

      1. Consumer has not filed a police report and entered the crime reference number within seven calendar days of the Product being stolen;

      2. If the theft of the Product is covered by an insurance policy stated under Consumer's name; 

   6. Outside of the replacement of an unfound stolen Product under the Theft Proof Service, VanMoof is not liable towards Consumer for damages incurred by Consumer because the Product was stolen, such as costs suffered as a result of not being able to use the Product.

4. Price and payment

   1. The price for the Theft Proof Service is indicated in the Agreement and the Webshop. The price should be paid by Consumer in advance by a one-time pre-payment. As long as the Theft Proof Service is not paid for, Consumer cannot use the Theft Proof Service. 

5. Duration and termination

   1. Theft Proof Service is purchased for one year (365 days) from the day of purchase. After this year, the Theft Proof Service automatically expires and Consumer can no longer make use of the Theft Proof Service, unless he has concluded a new Agreement for his Theft Proof Service. The Theft Proof Service is not a subscription. 
   2. Consumer has a right to withdrawal from the Agreement for the purchase of Theft Proof Service within 14 calendar days of the conclusion of this Agreement. Consumer will lose his right to withdrawal after VanMoof – with the prior consent of Consumer – has started the performance of the Theft Proof Service. This means that if Consumer uses the Theft Proof Service within 14 calendar days of the conclusion of the Agreement, he loses his right to withdrawal. Annex 2 applies for the exercise of the right to withdrawal by Consumer. 
   3. During the year the Theft Proof Service was purchased for, the Theft Proof Service cannot be terminated for convenience, both by Consumer and VanMoof. 
   4. Upon expiration of the Theft Proof Service, Consumer can renew the Theft Proof Service for another year by concluding a new Agreement for the Theft Proof Service. Upon renewal, a different price for the Theft Proof Service might apply (this means: a price that is different to the price paid by Consumer for the preceding year of Theft Proof Service).
   5. The decisive moment for coverage under the Theft Proof Service is the moment the Product is marked as stolen in the App. This means that the services outlined in article 2.1 will also be performed with regard to a Product if the fourteen-day search period ends after the Theft Proof Service expires.
   6. Once a product has been replaced, it voids the Theft Proof and the consumer will have to register for a new Theft proof if they wish to continue the service with the replaced product.
