9. You shall handle the Order as well as the packaging with the utmost care during the first 14 (fourteen) calendar days after delivery. As a Consumer You will be liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling of the Products other than what is necessary to establish their nature, characteristics and functioning.

In the event the Client is considered to be a Consumer, the foregoing in article 9.1 shall not apply and the moment of delivery and transfer of risk is the moment that the Consumer has taken receipt of the Products.
2. If the Client should fail to collect the Products it has ordered or should fail to do so promptly, it shall be in default without requiring a written notice of default.

Upon request thereto, access may be obtained to the insurance cover note. Should no payment be made by virtue of aforementioned insurance policies, regardless of the grounds, the liability of VanMoof shall be limited to the fee that was invoiced by VanMoof and paid by Client in connection with the delivery at hand during a 12 (twelve) month period directly preceding the date on which the event leading to liability occurred, up to a maximum liability of € 10,000 (ten thousand Euro).

  1. to suspend the fulfilment of the Agreement until payment has been adequately guaranteed; and/or
  2. to dissolve the Agreement with Client entirely or in part;
  3. all this without prejudice to VanMoof other rights under any Agreement whatsoever and without VanMoof being held to any damages.

Such circumstances include but are not limited to fires, acts of terrorism, strikes and lockouts, stagnation or other production problems suffered by VanMoof or its suppliers, or problems in the transportation provided by VanMoof or any third parties, any government measures, as well as the inability to obtain any permit or licence from any governmental body.

2. Insofar as required by context, terms used in the plural in these General Terms and Conditions (the ‘General Conditions’) include the singular, and vice versa.
Registration Process
1. An Applicant Customer may apply for a Subscription via the Web Portal. A Contract comes into effect once the Applicant Customer has submitted an application via the Web Portal (and accepted these General Conditions) and once VanMoof has accepted the Applicant Customer as a Customer. These General Conditions apply to all Subscriptions and form part of every Contract between a Customer and VanMoof.
2. VanMoof reserves the right to refuse an Applicant Customer if:
  1. The Applicant Customer has had a previous Subscription terminated by VanMoof;
  2. VanMoof has some other reason for believing that the Applicant Customer will not comply with the terms of the Subscription, the Contract, and/or these General Conditions; or
  3. the Applicant Customer does not live within a radius of 10 kilometres from a VanMoof Brand Store.
3. Before VanMoof will supply the Bicycle to the Customer, the Customer must:
  1. have paid the Initial Payment to VanMoof;
  2. have supplied VanMoof with a payment authorization via the Web Portal (credit card) for payment of the Monthly Fee and any other sums payable under the Contract and/or these General Conditions, which method of payment must have been verified and accepted by VanMoof in writing; and
  3. at the time of collecting the Bicycle from a VanMoof Brand Store prove their identity by means of a valid form of ID.
Bicycle
1. For the duration of the Subscription VanMoof will supply to the Customer a Bicycle of the agreed type and model. Unless VanMoof decides to replace the Bicycle, the Customer will have the use of the same Bicycle for the duration of the Subscription. The Bicycle will remain at all times the property of VanMoof.
2. For the duration of the Subscription VanMoof will carry out maintenance and repairs on the Bicycle (parts and labour) insofar as such work is required as a result of normal wear and tear through normal use. For the purpose of maintenance and repair work, whether or not instigated by VanMoof, the Customer must transport the Bicycle to and from a VanMoof Brand Store or (at their own expense) arrange for such transportation. This obligation applies throughout the duration of the Subscription, even in the event of a large or larger distance between the Customer and the nearest VanMoof Brand Store occurring as a result, for example, of a new address of the Customer or the closure/relocation of a VanMoof Brand Store. If available, the Customer will be able to loan an alternative bicycle for the duration of the repairs or maintenance to their Bicycle. VanMoof shall be entitled (but not required) to repair damage to the Bicycle caused by circumstances for which the Customer is liable at the expense of the Customer.
3. Work carried out on the Bicycle by the Customer or a third party is at the expense of the Customer, unless VanMoof has confirmed in advance in writing that it will be responsible for such costs.
4. VanMoof is entitled to take back the Bicycle at any time in consultation with the Customer and replace it with a comparable Bicycle.
Key, Transfer of Key
1. The Key is strictly personal and may be used only by the Customer or, if the Customer is a legal entity, by the natural person for whose benefit the Subscription is taken out. Except by transfer of the Key in accordance with the provisions of this Article 4, the Customer is not permitted to share the Key with any third party or to enable any third party to use the Bicycle.
2. During the registration process the Customer will create a password that will provide them with access to the confidential information and functions within the Web Portal. The Customer undertakes to treat the log-on data in the strictest confidence and shall ensure it remains inaccessible to any third party.
3. The Customer must update the personal and payment data it has supplied to VanMoof as soon as possible following any change in such data via the Web Portal.
4. The Customer may transfer the Key (and thus the exclusive right to use the Bicycle) to an Applicant Customer. The Key gives such Applicant Customer the exclusive right to use the Bicycle without this Applicant Customer being liable to pay VanMoof the Initial Payment, on condition that this Applicant Customer has first accepted these General Conditions and has been accepted by VanMoof as a Customer, whereby the legal obligations of the Customer to VanMoof arising under the Subscription are transferred to this new Customer by means of an assignment of contract as defined in Book 6 Article 159 of the Dutch Civil Code. In the case of a transfer of the Key in accordance with this Article 4, the start date of the Subscription of the new Customer is the date on which the Key is supplied to the person who has been assigned the Key. The Customer may offer the Key to an Applicant Customer in any way permitted by law, but transfer of the Key must be effected via the Web Portal.
5. VanMoof has no control over the willingness of an Applicant Customer to accept transfer of the Customer’s Key or any payment that the Applicant Customer may be prepared to pay for such transfer. VanMoof does not guarantee that there will at any time be any Applicant Customer wishing to accept transfer of the Customer’s Key, nor does VanMoof give any guarantee as to the amount that any Applicant Customer may be willing to pay for the transfer to them of the Customer’s Key. VanMoof expressly does not guarantee that as a result of a transfer of the Key the Customer will receive a payment equal to, or in proportion to, the amount of the Initial Payment.
6. It is the sole responsibility of the person who transfers the Key, and not VanMoof, to actually supply the Bicycle to the Applicant Customer who has accepted transfer of the Key. The transfer of the Key is a transaction between the Customer that transfers the Key and the Applicant Customer who accepts transfer of the Key. VanMoof is not a party to this transaction and the right of revocation specified in Article 11 does not apply to this transaction.
7. These General Conditions apply to the party that is assigned a Key from an existing Customer and to the Contract with such party, with the exception of Article 2.3.
8. VanMoof is entitled to refuse to cooperate with the the transfer of the Key and assignment of Contract referred to in section 4 of this article 4 if there are compelling reasons. Such a compelling reason would include, for example, a situation in which the Customer wishing to transfer the Key is in breach of their obligations to VanMoof.
Guest Use
1. For the duration of the Subscription the Customer and one partner, family member or friend of the Customer may during a stay in a city abroad (outside the Netherlands) in which a VanMoof Brand Store is located make use of a Bicycle (‘Guest Use’) at no additional cost.
2. VanMoof will use its best efforts to be able to offer Bicycles for Guest Use to the Customer, but cannot guarantee the availability thereof. Bicycles for Guest Use should be booked via the Web Portal and will be allocated on a ‘first come, first served’ basis. Following a confirmed booking, any such Bicycle may be collected from the VanMoof Brand Store or other location designated for such purpose by VanMoof and at the end of the relevant period must be returned to the same location. No such Bicycles will necessarily be of the same value as the Bicycle in respect of which the Subscription is purchased.
3. The Customer may take advantage of Guest Use for a maximum of seven (7) consecutive days and a total of no more than fourteen (14) days per calendar year.
4. By taking advantage of Guest Use the Customer and - where relevant - their partner, family member or friend acknowledge that all obligations of the Customer arising from these General Conditions will apply to such Guest Use. In addition, local mandatory conditions may apply. In the event of any discrepancy between any local mandatory conditions and these General Conditions, local mandatory conditions will take precedence over the provisions of these General Conditions.
General Obligations and Prohibitions
1. The Customer must:
  1. act with the required duty of care and treat the Bicycle with care, in accordance with the instructions given by VanMoof and with local traffic laws and regulations;
  2. immediately notify VanMoof via the Web Portal of any theft, embezzlement, or loss of - or damage to - the Bicycle;
  3. always keep the Bicycle locked, using as a minimum (depending on type) the ring lock supplied with the Bicycle or the rear-wheel lock integrated within the Bicycle and, where possible, also using the chain lock supplied with the Bicycle;
  4. always enable the Bicycle’s alarm system (if fitted to the Bicycle) when parking or storing the Bicycle;
  5. carry out small repairs at their own expense, such as: (i) regularly checking tyre pressure and, where necessary, inflating the tyres, and (ii) keeping up-to-date and regularly checking the sturdiness of moving parts, and oiling and greasing such parts as necessary;
  6. ensure that the Bicycle is at all times safe in traffic and used safely;

  1. make alterations to the Bicycle that cannot be reversed without causing damage to the Bicycle. Bicycle child seats and other accessories are permitted provided that these can be removed without damaging the Bicycle;
  2. use the Bicycle for commercial purposes (such as leasing/sub-leasing, or for use in providing courier or delivery services) or for cycling sport competitions, or tests;

  9. park the Bicycle in any place where this is prohibited;

  11. make copies of the keys to the locks supplied with the Bicycle.
Theft, Embezzlement, Actual Loss, Total Loss
1. The Customer must safeguard the Bicycle to the extent possible against theft, embezzlement, and actual loss by enabling the alarm of the Bicycle (if fitted to the Bicycle) and keeping the Bicycle locked using as a minimum (depending on type) the ring lock supplied with the Bicycle or the rear-wheel lock integrated within the Bicycle and, where possible, also using the chain lock supplied with the Bicycle.
2. In the event of theft, embezzlement, or actual loss the Customer must notify VanMoof accordingly by e-mail or via the Web Portal immediately, and in any event within 24 hours of discovery, and report the matter to the police. The Customer must return to a VanMoof Brand Store all original keys to the Bicycle supplied to the Customer.
3. On receipt by VanMoof of a report of theft, embezzlement, or actual loss of a Bicycle, together with a copy of the police report, the VanMoof Bike Hunters will try to find the Bicycle. If they fail to return the Bicycle to the Customer within two weeks of receipt of the report, VanMoof will replace the Bicycle by one that is to the extent possible of equal value unless any of the situations described in section 6 of this article arises.
4. If the Bicycle is a total write-off or so badly damaged that the repair costs would exceed the amount of the Initial Payment, this is referred to as ‘Total Loss’. In the event of Total Loss the Customer must notify VanMoof immediately by e-mail or via the Web Portal, and in any event within 24 hours of discovery, and VanMoof will replace the Bicycle by one of equal value to the extent possible, unless any of the events described in section 6 of this article has occurred.
5. Until such time as the Bicycle is returned to the Customer following its theft, embezzlement or actual loss, or the Customer receives a replacement Bicycle from VanMoof, the Customer may loan an alternative bicycle provided there is one available. The Customer must collect the Bicycle (once it has been recovered by the Bike Hunters), the replacement bicycle, and/or a loan bicycle from, and return them to, the nearest VanMoof Brand Store. For each occasion that the VanMoof Bike Hunters are deployed, whether or not they succeed in recovering the bike, VanMoof will charge the Customer a fee of €98.00.
6. VanMoof will not replace the Bicycle, and the Customer is liable to make a payment to VanMoof (the amount of which is specified in the Contract and is dependent upon the type and value of the Bicycle) upon the occurrence of one or more of the following events:
  1. the Customer’s third occurrence of a theft, embezzlement, actual loss and/or Total Loss;
  2. the theft, embezzlement, actual loss and/or Total Loss is the result of the own fault, deliberate act, recklessness (whether or not intentional), and/or deliberate intent of the Customer. This would be the case if, for example, the Customer has not locked the Bicycle sufficiently or at all, has not used the Bicycle’s alarm, or not otherwise sufficiently protected the Bicycle against theft, embezzlement, or actual loss (for example, through careless handling of the keys), or if the damage or Total Loss is the result of improper use of the Bicycle (for example, by using the Bicycle in breach of these General Conditions); or
  3. the Customer, following an actual or alleged theft, embezzlement, actual loss, or Total Loss of the Bicycle, is unable to hand in the keys to the Bicycle to a VanMoof Brand Store.
Duration and Termination
1. Unless a minimum duration for the Subscription has been agreed, the Subscription is for an indefinite term and may be terminated by the Customer at the end of a calendar month subject to two weeks’ written notice sent by letter, e-mail or via the Web Portal. If a minimum duration for the Subscription has been agreed, then the Subscription cannot be ended until the agreed end date, and subject to two weeks’ notice before that date.

Upon a termination of the Subscription pursuant to section 4 of this article VanMoof has the right to:

  3. compensation for all loss actually incurred by VanMoof.

In the case of commercial Customers agreement can be reached for payment to be made in respect of regular invoices. Payment of the Monthly Fee for the next calendar month must be made by no later than the last day of the current calendar month. The Monthly Fee due in respect of the first calendar month is calculated pro rata according to the number of days between the signing of the Contract and the end of that month.

In the case of theft or embezzlement of the Bicycle or reasonable suspicion of theft, embezzlement, or fraud, VanMoof shall be entitled (but not required) – if the type of Bicycle permits this – to locate or track the Bicycle’s location, and/or to check whether prior to the alleged or actual embezzlement or theft the Bicycle had been locked.
Cancellation Rights
1. The Customer has the right to cancel the Contract (and thus the Subscription) within a cancellation period of 30 days following the date on which the bike is delivered, without having to give reasons.
2. To exercise these cancellation rights, the Customer must notify VanMoof clearly, in writing (by letter or e-mail) or via the Web Portal of their wish to cancel the Contract (and thus the Subscription).
3. If the Customer does cancel the Contract VanMoof will refund to the Customer no later than 14 days after VanMoof has received notice from the Customer of their decision to cancel all payments made to VanMoof by the Customer up to that moment, including delivery costs (but excluding any extra costs arising from any choice of delivery beyond the cheapest standard delivery offered by VanMoof). The refund will be effected using the same payment method used by the Customer for the original transaction, unless the Customer has expressly agreed otherwise. If the Customer has used the Bicycle during the cancellation period the Customer will pay a sum to VanMoof equal to the Monthly Fee, which sum VanMoof may deduct from any sums it owes to the Customer. If the Bicycle has already been supplied by VanMoof at the time of cancellation the said cancellation period of 14 days does not start to run until the Customer has returned the Bicycle to VanMoof in accordance with the provisions of Article 8.6.
Miscellaneous Provisions
1. VanMoof reserves the right to make any reasonable changes to the Subscription (including an increase in the Monthly Fee in line with the consumer price index) and/or to these General Conditions. VanMoof will notify the Customer at least 30 days before any change to these General Conditions becomes binding upon the Customer.
2. If any provision of these General Conditions is deemed invalid, void, or unenforceable, this will not prevent the remaining valid, lawful and enforceable provisions from being fully binding.
3. Book 7, Articles 207, 208, 210, and 216 (2) and (3) of the Dutch Civil Code do not apply.
4. The Customer agrees to information concerning the Subscription being sent only in digital form, such as by e-mail to the e-mail address provided at the time of registration.

6. In the event of force majeure VanMoof is not obliged to comply with any obligation arising from the Subscription, the Contract, and/or these General Conditions. The term ‘force majeure’ here includes the inability of VanMoof to comply with its obligations due to war, threat of war, civil unrest, disturbance, fire, water damage, frost, flood, earthquake, work stoppage, sit down, lock out, government measures, defective equipment, interruptions in energy supply, breakdowns in communication systems, and changes to relevant laws or regulations.
