    8. How to claim
      1. Follow the step by step instructions below to report a claim.
      2. Confirm that Your VanMoof bike has really been stolen. If possible, contact the owner or management of the last known location of Your bicycle to see if it has been found.
      3. Report the theft to the police (or local police if abroad at the time of the theft) as soon as possible and obtain a report or crime reference number together with details of the police station. We encourage You to report any theft ideally immediately but in no event later than within 7 (seven) calendar days of discovery.
      4. Prior to the claim, You must be registered in the VanMoof POMT-Service application (“app”) and the stolen VanMoof bike must be registered under Your Account.
      5. To make a claim please login to Your Account and register Your VanMoof bike as stolen.
      6. VanMoof will follow up on Your claim within 48 (forty-eight) hours to validate the theft and start the Bike Hunting process.
      7. VanMoof will only be able to make use of location tracking with regard to Your VanMoof bike in the event that Your VanMoof bike has been reported by You as stolen at the Police station, and You have enabled this option in the application. The crime reference number is proof for VanMoof that the bike is registered as stolen.
      8. Clients have the possibility to transfer the POMT-Service when selling their VanMoof bike to a third party. In this event, the remainder of the POMT-Service will follow the VanMoof bike to the new owner upon completion of applicable registration formalities for establishing and maintaining an account.

      10. Should You be eligible for a new bike under the POMT-Service, You will receive one under the condition that You transfer the title of ownership of the old bike to VanMoof. This allows VanMoof to claim the old bike in case it will eventually be recovered.
  5. Peace of Mind Maintenance Service

    1. In addition to the warranty as described in Section 11 Limited Warranty of these Terms, the Client has the possibility to purchase a Peace of Mind Maintenance Service (the “POMM-Service”), which covers maintenance costs caused by normal wear and tear after purchasing the VanMoof Bike. Only in the event the Client purchases the POMM-Service will this Section 5 apply.
    2. For the duration of the POMM-Service, VanMoof will carry out maintenance and repairs on the bicycle (parts and labor) insofar as such work is required as a result of normal wear and tear through normal use.
    3. The Client will be eligible for free ad-hoc & scheduled maintenance checks conducted by a VanMoof Bike Doctor with regard to the following conditions:
      1. VanMoof reserves the right to define which maintenance checks are to be performed by a Bike Doctor or which can be conducted by the Client themself. In the event of any self-maintenance, the Client agrees to use original VanMoof parts during the maintenance as to avoid not being entitled to the benefits of the POMM-Service. If the Client is not able to prove the maintenance has been performed or if any damage is incurred due to the use of non-approved parts or accessories, VanMoof reserves the right to invoice the Client for the costs incurred by VanMoof as a result of the incorrect maintenance.
      2. Ad-hoc repairs are subject to fair-use of the Product and can be declined should it become evident that the Client is mistreating the Agreement and Product. Fair-use of the Product includes, among other things, the confirmation of the Client with regard to regular maintenance appointments with VanMoof Bike Doctors in the event the Client is being notified via email or in POMM-Service app updates, as to avoid unnecessary damage and/or wear and tear of mechanical items. Not considered fair-use of the Product is using Vanmoof as a delivery bike, for tests, or in a sports event.
    4. In order to use this POMM-Service, You will need to establish and maintain a member Account in good standing for the POMM-Service in accordance with the terms and conditions for such Account. To be able to offer You these POMM-Service, We need to process personal data such as your name, (email) address, phone number and location.

VanMoof may accept or reject account applications for an account based on our sole discretion.
    5. You may not use another member's Account, permit anyone else to use Your Account, or assign or otherwise transfer Your Account to any other person or entity. When applying for and creating Your Account, You must provide accurate and complete information, and keep such information updated and accurate throughout the term of the POMM-Service. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on Your Account, and You must keep Your Account password secure. You must notify VanMoof immediately of any breach of security or unauthorized use of Your Account. VanMoof will not be liable for any losses caused by any unauthorized use of Your Account.
    6. You may control Your Account and how You interact with the POMM-Service by changing the options in Your Settings page on my.vanmoof.com. By providing Your email address to VanMoof, You consent to our use of that email address to send You POMM-Service-related emails, including any notices required by law, in lieu of communication by postal mail. By providing Your mobile phone number to VanMoof, You consent to our use of the phone number to send You POMM-Service-related SMS messages. You cannot opt out of POMM-Service-related emails or SMS messages as these are vital to performing our POMM-Service to You, unless You terminate the POMM-Service.
    7. We may also use your email address and/or cell phone number to send You other messages related to the POMM-Service, such as information about changes to features of the POMM-Service and special offers. If You prefer not to receive such messages, You may opt out or change your preferences in the Settings page of my.vanmoof.com. Opting out may prevent You from receiving messages regarding updates, improvements or offers.
    8. Maintenance intervals are subject to kilometres ridden on the bike and the Client will be informed via email or POMM-Service app updates.
    9. The prohibited activities as described in Section 4.6, shall also apply with regard to the POMM-Services and/or POMM-Service app. In using the POMM-Service and/or the POMM-Service app, You agree not to engage in the prohibited activities as described in Section 4.6.
      1. VanMoof may permanently or temporarily terminate, suspend, or otherwise refuse to permit Your access to the POMM-Service without notice and liability for any reason, including if in VanMoof's sole determination You violate any provision of these Terms. VanMoof also retains the right to remove or suspend Accounts for any reason, including a violation or suspected violation of these Terms. All aspects of the POMM-Service are subject to change or elimination at VanMoof sole discretion. VanMoof reserves the right to interrupt the POMM-Service with or without prior notice for any reason. You agree that VanMoof will not be liable to You for any interruption of the POMM-Service, delay or failure to perform.
    10. Without limitation to Section 5.11, the POMM-Service encompasses services and costs related to replacing or repairing, mechanical items due to normal wear and tear with normal (e.g. recreational, commuting), use of the bicycle, which services may include but are not limited to; tightening components, lubricating components, the replacement of brakes, brake pads, wheels, handlebars, handlebar controls and buttons, chain, chain guard or kickstand, or a combination thereof.
    11. The POMM-Service shall not provide any cover in respect of claims which are caused directly or indirectly by any of the following:

      2. a malfunction of any software, application or other material downloaded to Your bike from third parties by You or anyone else using Your bike with Your permission;

    12. VanMoof Bike Doctors reserve the right to define which mechanical pieces need replacing during a check-up.
    13. For the purpose of maintenance and repair work, whether or not instigated by VanMoof, the Client must transport the bicycle to and from a VanMoof Brand Store, or remote “fixer network” locations or arrange for such transportation to one of these locations. This obligation applies throughout the duration of the Agreement, even in the event of a large or larger distance between the Client and the nearest VanMoof Brand Store occurring as a result, for example, of a new address of the Client or the closure/relocation of a VanMoof Brand Store. VanMoof shall be entitled (but not required) to repair damage to the Bicycle caused by circumstances for which the Client is liable at the expense of the Client.
    14. The Client has the right to cancel the purchase of the POMM-Service within a cancellation period of 14 (fourteen) calendar days following the date on which the bike is delivered, without giving any reason.
    15. To exercise the cancellation right as referred to in Section 5.14, the Client must timely notify VanMoof clearly, in writing dated and sent within the cancellation period of Section 5.14 (by letter or e-mail) or via the web portal of their wish to cancel the POMM-Service.

  6. Prices

    1. All VanMoof’s prices are in EUR/USD/GBP/JPY unless expressly stated otherwise. Insofar as prices are stated in other currency than EUR/USD/GBP/JPY, then such statement of price is deemed to be based on the EUR/USD/GBP/JPY equivalent of such price at the date that the price statement was made. Prices are exclusive of value added tax or any other sales tax. Sales taxes shall be separately stated and invoiced to Clients. Costs of packing and dispatch, import and export duties and taxes and any other surcharges, levies or taxes imposed or charged in respect of the Products and the transportation thereof shall be for the Client’s account.
    2. Prior to delivery, any change of factors having an impact on the prices of VanMoof, including but not limited to rates of third parties, currency exchange rates, insurance rates, import and export duties and any other charges payable upon importation or exportation, freight charges and other charges, levies or taxes, may be charged on to Client by VanMoof.
    3. Service fees: You agree to the fees and charges, terms of sale, payment and billing policies applicable to Your use of the POMT-Services or POMM-Services (“Services”) as stated in these Terms and the applicable account registration for these Services. VanMoof may add new services for additional fees and charges, or amend fees and charges for existing Services, at any time in its sole discretion. All fees and charges for Your use of the Service are non-refundable, except as may be expressly stated in Terms. If at any time fees for an existing Service are increased, You are of course free to cease Your use of the Service by providing notice and sending it to the e-mail address as indicated in Section 2.3 above which cancellation will be effective as of the next billing period. Continued use of the Service will be treated as Your agreement to the new terms.
  7. Delivery

    1. The delivery period indicated by VanMoof shall be based on the circumstances applicable to VanMoof at the time the Agreement is entered into and, to the extent dependent on performance by third parties, on the information that those third parties provided to VanMoof. All delivery dates are estimates only.
    2. Except as otherwise provided herein, the delivery period shall commence on the date of VanMoof’s written Order confirmation. Provided, however, if, in order to execute the Order, VanMoof requires additional information from the Client, the delivery period shall commence on the date on which VanMoof disposes of all the necessary information or resources, but not earlier than the date of the written Order confirmation.
    3. The Client shall not be entitled to claim any compensation in the event of an overdue delivery period. Neither shall the Client be entitled to dissolve the Agreement in such an event, unless the Client is considered to be a Consumer. See Section 8 for additional details. Consumers have the right to dissolve the Agreement after they have requested to deliver within a reasonable timeframe or such timeframe as provided by law and VanMoof was not able to deliver within that reasonable period or timeframe as provided by law.
    4. VanMoof shall at all times be entitled to deliver in part-consignments.
  8. Right of withdrawal

    1. If You meet the definition of a “Consumer”, You have the right to withdraw from your purchase and revoke your Order without giving any reason and without extra costs. This right explicitly does not apply to the Order of a Power Bank. The purchase of a Power Bank is non-revocable and returns are not possible.
    2. The withdrawal period shall expire after 14 (fourteen) calendar days from the day on which You or a third party other than the carrier indicated by You acquires physical possession of the Products. When Products are delivered in multiple lots or pieces, the withdrawal period shall expire after 14 (fourteen) calendar days from the day on which You acquire the physical possession of the last lot or piece.
    3. Please note that You cannot exercise a right to withdraw in case of Products made to the Consumer's specifications or clearly personalized.
    4. You shall send back the Products in the original box or the box provided by VanMoof according to Section 11.3 of these Terms or hand them over in person to VanMoof, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 (fourteen) calendar days from the day on which You communicate your withdrawal from this contract to Us. The deadline is met if You send back the Products before the period of 14 (fourteen) calendar days has expired.
    5. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Products. Installing the pedals and/or adjusting the handlebar and/or adjusting the saddle is likely to create small claws. To the extent that these actions are not necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the bike, You are liable towards VanMoof for any diminished value caused by these actions.
    6. In case You withdraw, VanMoof can refuse repayment so long as VanMoof has not timely received the returned goods or until You have proved You have timely returned the Products, depending on which event occurs first.
    7. VanMoof shall reimburse You the purchase amount of the Products including any shipping costs charged with regard to the delivery of the Products no later than 14 (fourteen) calendar days starting from the day We received Your returned Products.
    8. VanMoof shall use the same means of payment as You used for the initial transaction, unless You have expressly agreed otherwise and provided that You do not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement. VanMoof shall not, however, reimburse the supplementary costs, if You have expressly opted for a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by VanMoof.
    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 order to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Products, You should only handle and inspect the Product in the same manner as You would be allowed to do in a shop.
    10. In order to exercise Your right to withdraw, You can fill out the form on the “contact us” page on the website of VanMoof or make a similar unequivocal statement and send it to the email as indicated in Section 2.3 above. We will send You an acknowledgement of Your withdrawal.
  9. Delivery and risk

    1. If and to the extent that the parties have not explicitly agreed in writing on the (costs of) delivery of the Products and the transfer of risk, the delivery shall be made at VanMoof’s premises, and the risk of the Products and the packing thereof shall be transferred to the Client at the moment the Products are ready for dispatch, while the dispatch shall be effected for the Client’s account and risk. In the event the Client is considered to be a Consumer, the foregoing in Section 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. In such event VanMoof shall be entitled to store the Products for the Client’s account and risk and to sell these to a third party. The Client shall remain liable for the purchase price plus the interest and costs (by way of compensation) after the deduction of the net proceeds of such sale to a third party, if any.
    3. The Client shall not have ownership rights to rent, let or make the Products available in use to third parties, to pledge them or to otherwise encumber them in favour of third parties until VanMoof has transferred the title of those Products to the Client. Unless expressly provided for herein, the acquisition of ownership rights does not alter or waive the other terms and conditions under the Agreement, including these Terms.
  10. Inspection and complaints

    1.

    3. Force majeure on the part of VanMoof is to be understood to be any circumstance beyond the control of VanMoof hindering the fulfilment of its obligations towards Client entirely or in part or because of which VanMoof cannot be expected in all fairness to fulfil its obligations, regardless of whether such circumstance could have been foreseen at the time when the Agreement was concluded. Such circumstances include but are not limited to fires, acts of terrorism, strikes and lockouts, the outbreak and/or spread of viruses and/or diseases, 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 license from any governmental body.

  13. VanMoof's Products

    1. SECTION 11 IS A FULL AND COMPLETE STATEMENT OF VANMOOF’S WARRANTY FOR THE PRODUCT. VANMOOF DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, MERCHANTABILITY, AND, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES PROVIDED BY STATUTE OR COMMON LAW. VANMOOF’S LIABILITY UNDER THIS WARRANTY SHALL BE NO GREATER THAN THE AMOUNT OF THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO NEGLIGENCE, SHALL VANMOOF OR ANY VANMOOF DISTRIBUTOR/SELLER BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, THAT RESULT FROM THE USE OF OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE VANMOOF BIKE AND/OR ANY OTHER PRODUCTS OR MATERIALS REFERRED TO HEREIN OR IN THE OPERATING MANUALS PROVIDED TO CUSTOMER. APPLICABLE LAW MAY NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IF SUCH DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES ARE NOT ALLOWED OR ARE EXCLUDED BY APPLICABLE STATE LAW, SUCH IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED TO THE SAME DURATION AS THE EXPRESS WARRANTY HEREIN. RETAILERS AND WHOLESALE OUTLETS FOR PRODUCTS ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO MODIFY THIS WARRANTY IN ANY WAY.
    2. If VanMoof should deliver Products to the Client which VanMoof has obtained from its own suppliers, VanMoof shall at no time be obliged to honor a warranty or liability in respect of the Client which is more far-reaching than that which VanMoof can claim from its own supplier.
    3. With respect to warranty claims under Section 11, if, in VanMoof’s opinion, the Client has been able to prove that any Products supplied by VanMoof to the Client do not function properly, VanMoof may choose, at its sole discretion, between:
      1. re-supplying the Products with a Product of the same model that is of similar, age, mileage and condition, upon receiving the returned of the Products;
      2. modifying the Products properly;
      3. granting the Client a discount on the purchase price to be agreed by mutual consent.
    4. VanMoof shall be fully discharged of its warranty obligations by complying with one of the options described above, and it shall not be held to pay any further compensation or damages.
    5. The Products shall remain completely for the Client’s risk even if VanMoof should carry out any repairs to the Products.
  14. Liability

    1. VANMOOF IS NOT LIABLE TO CLIENT FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR REVENUES OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY BREACH OF THE AGREEMENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THESE TERMS, WHETHER OR NOT THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES HAS BEEN DISCLOSED IN ADVANCE OR COULD HAVE BEEN REASONABLY FORESEEN AND REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY (CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATIONS OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. Any liability of VanMoof to Client shall at all times be limited to the sum insured that shall be paid in such case under the liability insurance policies taken out by VanMoof. These insurance policies have limited cover, inter alia with respect to the amount of the damages and the number of insured events per year. 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 then 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).
    2. In the event that VanMoof involves third parties, VanMoof shall not accept any liability whatsoever for failure to perform on the part of such third party except to the extent for failure to perform on the part of VanMoof itself — to which Section 14.1 applies. If the Client brings legal action directly against a third party, the Client shall indemnify VanMoof against any claims by such third party in connection with such claim as well as against all expenses to be incurred by VanMoof.
    3. All rights of legal action and other powers of the Client towards VanMoof in connection with the Products delivered by VanMoof (other than warranty claims during the warranty period) shall lapse upon expiry of a one (1) year term after the date on which the Client has become aware of - or could in all fairness have been aware of - the existence of such rights and powers.
  15. Termination

    1. If Client fails to fulfil any of its obligations arising from the Agreement properly or in time, Client shall be in default and VanMoof shall be entitled without any default notice:
      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's other rights under any Agreement whatsoever and without VanMoof being held to any damages.
    2. If VanMoof exercises its right of termination as mentioned in Section 15.1, VanMoof is authorized to set off any amount which may possibly be refunded to Client with a remuneration for activities already carried out as well as with a compensation for loss of profit.
    3. In the event of bankruptcy, (provisional) suspension of payment, liquidation or attachment of one or more assets of Client or if Client is aware that any of these situations may occur, Client must notify VanMoof thereof as soon as possible.
    4. In case of a situation as referred to in Section 15.3, all Agreements with Client shall be terminated immediately by notice from VanMoof or VanMoof may notify Client that it wishes (part of) the Agreement concerned to be fulfilled, in which case VanMoof is entitled without any default notice:
      1. to suspend fulfilment of the Agreement(s) concerned until payment has been adequately guaranteed; and/or
      2. to suspend all its payment obligations, if any, towards Client;
      3. all this without prejudice to VanMoof’s other rights under any Agreement whatsoever and without VanMoof being held to any damages.
    5. In the event of a situation as referred to in Section 15.3, all VanMoof’s claims against Client shall be immediately payable in full.

    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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Guest Use

    1. For the duration of the Subscription, the Customer and one partner, family member or friend of the Customer (each such partner, family member and friend being 18 years or older) may during a stay in another city within or outside the United States 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.

      8. take the Bicycle abroad (outside the United States);
      9. park the Bicycle in any place where this is prohibited;
      10. grant a security interest in the Bicycle; or
      11. make copies of the keys to the locks supplied with the Bicycle.
  7. 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 rent 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 rented 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 USD 110.
    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.
  8. 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.

    5. In the event of termination of the Subscription by VanMoof upon the occurrence of one or more of the events listed in section 4 of this article, the Customer’s access to the Bicycle and the Web Portal will be immediately blocked and the Customer must immediately return the Bicycle to a VanMoof Brand Store. Upon a termination of the Subscription pursuant to section 4 of this article VanMoof has the right to:
      1. the immediate return of the Bicycle to a VanMoof Brand Store. If the Customer does not immediately return the Bicycle, VanMoof is entitled to recover possession itself and to charge the Customer accordingly;

      3. compensation for all loss actually incurred by VanMoof.
    6. Following termination of the Contract, the Customer must return the Bicycle to VanMoof in the same condition as it was supplied to the Customer, with any additions or changes made to the Bicycle by the Customer reversed.
  9. Payment, Arrears of Payment

    1. The Monthly Fee and any other payments due under the Contract and/or these General Conditions, will be transferred monthly in advance by means of the payment method selected at the time of registration. 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.
    2. The Customer irrevocably authorizes VanMoof or - in the case of an assignment of the right as described in section 5 of this article - the party to which the right has been assigned, to obtain payment of all sums owed by the Customer under the Contract and/or these General Conditions by means of direct debit from the account indicated by the Customer or the debiting of their credit card, or other selected payment method included in the Web Portal.
    3. The Customer remains liable for payments that VanMoof has not been able to collect. If the Customer has not paid the Monthly Fee or any other payment even after a payment reminder has been sent, VanMoof will contact the Customer to again request payment and offer the Customer the option to update their personal and/or payment data.
    4. If a payment has not been received by VanMoof within 60 days of the payment date, and VanMoof has sent the Customer at least one payment reminder, VanMoof reserves the right to report the theft and/or embezzlement of the Bicycle and to recover the Bicycle. The Customer shall be liable for all costs thereby incurred by VanMoof. Furthermore, in such a case the Customer shall not be entitled to any partial refund of the Initial Payment.
  10. Privacy

    1. VanMoof may store and process personal data and other information pertaining to the Customer and use this to make offers, whether or not personalised, to the Customer.
    2. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. Liability; Assumption of Risk

    1. VanMoof strongly recommends that the Customer wear a safety certified bicycle helmet that has been properly sized, fitted, and fastened, according to the manufacturer’s instructions. In New York State, all bicyclists under the age of 14 years old are required to wear safety certified bicycle helmets when they are operators or passengers on bicycles.  Wearing a safety certified bicycle helmet, properly sized, fitted, and fastened, while cycling may protect against an injury or may lessen the severity of an injury caused by an impact to the head; however, bicycle helmets are not 100% effective, do not protect against all head injuries, and do not protect against other injuries. VANMOOF AND THE OTHER RELEASED PERSONS DO NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THE QUALITY OR SAFETY CHARACTERISTICS OF ANY HELMET, AND CUTOMER AGREES THAT VANMOOF AND THE OTHER RELEASED PERSONS ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INJURY SUFFERED BY CUSTOMER WHILE RIDING A BICYCLE, WHETHER OR NOT CUSTOMER IS WEARING A HELMET AT THE TIME OF INJURY. CUSTOMER ASSUMES ALL RISK OF NOT WEARING A HELMET OR OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AND GEAR. Customer agrees that, when riding a Bicycle, Customer might need to take additional safety measures and precautions that are not specifically addressed in these Terms and Conditions.
    2. “Released Persons” means, collectively, (i) VanMoof and all of its and their owners, managers, affiliates, employees, agents, representatives, successors, and assigns.
    3. Customer represents, warrants, and agrees that he or she (i) is a safe and competent bicycle operator, (ii) is sufficiently fit and physically capable to safely ride a bicycle without any risk to his or her health, (iii) is knowledgeable about the operation of a bicycle, and (iv) is knowledgeable about the laws pertaining to bicycles operated within the city in which he or she rides the Bicycle. LIKE ANY PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, RIDING A BICYCLE MAY CAUSE MINOR OR MAJOR INJURIES OR DISCOMFORT AND MAY WORSEN OR COMPLICATE UNDERLYING MEDICAL CONDITIONS OR DISEASES. BY CHOOSING TO RIDE A VANMOOF BICYCLE, CUSTOMER ASSUMES ALL RESPONSIBILITIES AND RISKS FOR ALL SUCH INJURIES OR OTHER MEDICAL CONDITIONS.
    4. Except for gross negligence or wilfull misconduct by VanMoof, (i) VanMoof shall not be liable to the Customer for any injury to the Customer or any third party or for any damage to any property, and (ii) the Customer shall indemnify VanMoof against, and shall hold VanMoof harmless from any claims by Customer or any third party arising out of Customer’s use of the Bicycle.
  13. Miscellaneous Provision

    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. In the event that any condition or other provision herein contained is held to be invalid, void, or illegal by any court of competent jurisdiction, the same shall be deemed to be severable from the remainder of these Terms and Conditions and shall in no way affect, impair, or invalidate any other condition or other provision contained herein.
    3. 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.
    4. VanMoof shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligation under the Subscription, the Contract, and/or these General Conditions arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God; earthquakes; fire; flood; wars; threats of war; acts of terrorism; civil or military disturbances; sabotage; epidemic; riots; interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications services; accidents; labor disputes or strikes; acts of civil or military authority or governmental action; and changes to relevant laws or regulations.
    5. The Subscription, the Contract, and these General Conditions are governed exclusively by the internal laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction).
    6. ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THE SUBSCRIPTION, THE CONTRACT, AND THESE GENERAL CONDITIONS, SHALL BE INSTITUTED IN THE FEDERAL OR STATE COURTS LOCATED IN THE STATE AND COUNTY IN WHICH THE VANMOOF BRAND STORE WHICH HAS PROVIDED THE BICYCLE TO THE CUSTOMER IS LOCATED, AND EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. SERVICE OF PROCESS, SUMMONS, NOTICE OR OTHER DOCUMENT BY MAIL TO SUCH PARTY'S ADDRESS SET FORTH IN THE SUBSCRIPTION OR CONTRACT SHALL BE EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS FOR ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT. THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR ANY PROCEEDING IN SUCH COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. If VanMoof prevails in litigation against, or settles a dispute with, the Customer to enforce its rights under the Subscription, the Contract or the General Conditions, VanMoof shall be entitled to its costs, expenses, and reasonable attorneys’ fees (whether incurred at or in preparation for trial, appeal, mediation or otherwise) incurred in resolving or settling the dispute, in addition to all other damages or awards to which VanMoof may be entitled.
    7. Except in the case of a transfer of a Key in accordance with the provisions of Article 4, the rights of the Customer arising from the Subscription, the Contract, or these General Conditions cannot be assigned without the prior written consent of VanMoof.
