  • In the General Terms and Conditions, “Agreement” means the legal relationship between DiscoDieren and Customer, all in the broadest sense.
  • In these General Terms and Conditions, “Services” means all services provided by DiscoDieren and/or its engaged third parties to Customer, including facilitating a DJ in combination with equipment for children’s discos and providing additional children’s entertainment by providing bouncy castles, face painters and children’s shows. This also includes all other work of any kind performed by DiscoDieren on behalf of Customer, carried out within the framework of an assignment, including work not carried out at the express request of Customer.

Article 2 – Applicability of the general conditions

  • The General Terms and Conditions also apply to amended orders from Customer and to amended offers from DiscoDieren.

Article 3 – Establishment of the Agreement.

  • For the Services, the Agreement between DiscoDieren and Customer is established at the time of booking through the website and sending the confirmation. This confirmation may be by email or digital signature. The Customer will also receive an offer to be signed.

Article 4 – Execution of the Agreement

  • The Agreement is entered into for a definite period and will terminate by operation of law upon completion of the Services, unless expressly agreed otherwise.
  • DiscoDieren will use its best efforts to perform the Services with care in accordance with the requirements of good workmanship.
  • DiscoDieren has the right to have certain work performed by third parties.
  • The Customer shall ensure that all information, which DiscoDieren indicates is necessary or which the Customer should reasonably understand is necessary for the execution of the Agreement, is provided to DiscoDieren in a timely manner. If the information required for the execution of the Agreement is not provided to DiscoDieren in a timely manner, DiscoDieren is entitled to suspend the execution of the Agreement and/or to charge the Customer the additional costs resulting from the delay according to the then usual rates.
    If DiscoDieren and/or third parties engaged by it perform Services on Customer’s premises, Customer shall provide a workable situation and reasonably desired facilities.
  • If DiscoDieren uses any materials it deems necessary in the performance of its Services, Customer is obliged to handle them with care.
  • If Customer and/or a third party destroys or otherwise damages Disco Animals’ material, it is obliged to compensate Disco Animals for the resulting damage.
  • If a deadline is agreed or specified for the performance of Services, this is never a deadline. If a deadline is exceeded, the Customer must give DiscoDieren written notice of this. DiscoDieren should be given a reasonable period of time to still carry out the Agreement.

Article 5 – Modification of the Agreement.

  • If during the execution of the Agreement it appears that for a proper execution thereof it is necessary to modify or supplement it, DiscoDieren and Customer will timely and in mutual consultation adjust the Agreement.
  • If the Agreement is amended, including an addition, it is an additional order. This additional assignment will be the subject of a separate fee agreement in advance. Without additional billing, the original terms apply, with additional Services paid at the agreed upon rate.
  • Failure to execute or not immediately execute the amended Agreement does not constitute a default by DiscoDieren and is not a ground for the Customer to terminate or cancel the Agreement.
  • Changes to the originally concluded Agreement between DiscoDieren and Customer are only valid from the moment these changes are expressly accepted in writing.

Article 6 – Suspension, dissolution and early termination of the Agreement

  • DiscoDieren is authorized to suspend the fulfillment of the obligations or to dissolve the Agreement if the Customer does not fulfill the obligations under the Agreement, or does not fulfill them completely or in a timely manner, or if DiscoDieren has good reason to fear that the Customer will fail in those obligations.
  • Furthermore, DiscoDieren is authorized to dissolve the Agreement if circumstances arise of such a nature that fulfillment of the Agreement is impossible or unaltered maintenance of the Agreement cannot reasonably be expected.
  • If the Agreement is dissolved, DiscoDieren’s claims against Customer are immediately due and payable. If DiscoDieren suspends the fulfillment of its obligations, it retains its claims under the law and Agreement.
  • If the Customer does not comply with his obligations resulting from the Agreement and this non-compliance justifies dissolution, then DiscoDieren is entitled to dissolve the Agreement immediately and with immediate effect without any obligation on his part to pay any damages or compensation, while the Customer, on account of default, is obliged to pay damages or compensation.
  • In case of liquidation, of (application of) suspension of payment or bankruptcy, of seizure – if and insofar as the seizure has not been lifted within three months – at the expense of the Customer, of debt restructuring or any other circumstance as a result of which the Customer can no longer dispose freely of its assets, DiscoDieren is free to terminate the Agreement immediately and with immediate effect or to cancel the order or Agreement, without any obligation on its part to pay any damages or compensation. The claims of DiscoDieren against the Customer are in that case immediately due and payable.

  • The Customer has the duty to immediately communicate inaccuracies in the payment information listed or provided to DiscoDieren.
  • If the Customer defaults in the timely payment of an invoice, the Customer shall be in default by operation of law, without further notice of default being required.

  • If Blijwin decides to collect a claim for non-payment of one or more unpaid invoices through the courts, in addition to the principal sum due and the interest mentioned in Article 7.5, the Customer shall also be obliged to reimburse all judicial and extrajudicial costs reasonably incurred. The compensation for judicial and extrajudicial costs incurred will be determined in accordance with the then current Decree governing compensation for extrajudicial collection costs.

  • Business customers have a 24-hour cooling-off period.
  • Cancellation of the Agreement must be in writing and expressly confirmed by DiscoDieren.
  • In case of full or partial cancellation, all costs incurred at that time arising from the Agreement will be charged to Customer.

  • If Customer is a consumer, he can cancel the Agreement within 14 days of its conclusion, regardless of the reasons. DiscoAnimal will refund all charges paid by Customer. If Customer agrees for DiscoDieren to begin performing the Service within this period, he thereby expressly waives his cooling-off period.

Article 9 – Liability

  • The Customer is responsible for providing correct and representative data necessary for the performance of the Agreement. DiscoDieren is not liable if Customer has provided inaccurate or unrepresentative data.

The liability referred to in this article shall be limited to the amount agreed upon with Customer.
