If the Client does not accept these General Terms and Conditions and the Privacy Statement, the Client is not allowed to access, register for, or use the Pierrot Application.
Waanzin reserves the right to suspend or terminate any Account, or to deny the Client access to the Pierrot Application or any services made available through it, with immediate effect, if the Client has provided any inaccurate, incomplete or misleading information, has breached these General Terms and Conditions, or if Waanzin reasonably believes that the Client has breached these General Terms and Conditions, engaged in fraud or any other form of misuse of the Pierrot Application, interfered with or disrupted the proper functioning of the Pierrot Application, or acted in a manner that may harm the reputation or legitimate interests of Waanzin or any third party.
The Client may terminate its Account at any time. Following such termination, the Client Data may be retained for such period as is necessary to comply with applicable legal obligations and to satisfy legitimate operational requirements, after which such data shall be deleted or anonymised in accordance with our Privacy Statement or DPA.
The Client shall remain solely responsible for all persons who access the Account on its behalf, for all use made of the Account, and for the accuracy of the Client’s information.

- Does not infringe any third-party rights, including intellectual property rights, privacy rights or personality rights;
- Does not engage in any fraudulent, misleading, unlawful, discriminatory or defamatory conduct;

Pricing
Waanzin offers various pricing models for the use of the Pierrot Application, as amended from time to time, depending on the type of organisation and/or the selected ticketing modality. Details of the pricing models currently offered by Waanzin, together with the applicable fees, are available at www.pierrot.io/pricing.
The fees consist of a fixed component and a variable component calculated by reference to the ticket price set by the Client. The variable component depends on the Client’s business category and the manner in which the ticket is sold or the registration is processed. Unless otherwise agreed, the standard rate applies to online and back-office sales or registrations, and a reduced rate applies to tickets sold at the door. In all cases, the fee per ticket shall be capped at 25 euro, so that no higher fee shall be payable in respect of any individual ticket irrespective of the ticket price set by the Client.
The Client acknowledges and accepts that, where it elects to enable online payments through the Pierrot Application, additional payment processing fees shall apply.
Additional Services may be ordered separately from, or in addition to, the Client’s use of the Pierrot Application. The fees applicable to such Additional Services shall be agreed separately between Waanzin and the Client, taking into account the nature, scope, and complexity of the services to be provided.
All fees communicated by Waanzin to the Client in connection with the use of the Pierrot Application and/or any Additional Services are stated in euro and are exclusive of VAT, unless expressly stated otherwise.

Regarding the use of the Pierrot Application, Waanzin shall issue invoices automatically at the end of each calendar quarter. No invoice shall be issued for any quarter during which the Client has not sold any tickets.
Any Additional Services may be invoiced separately, as agreed between Waanzin and the Client.
Where applicable, invoices may be issued and transmitted to the Client electronically via the Peppol network using the Peppol identifier provided by the Client. The Client shall ensure that its Peppol registration details and invoicing information remain accurate and up to date at all times. Any invoice transmitted via the Peppol network shall be deemed duly delivered on the date of successful transmission.
Where the Client is not required to receive invoices via the Peppol network, invoices shall be sent electronically by e-mail to the contact details provided by the Client.

All invoices shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days from the invoice date.

In addition, if an invoice remains unpaid on its due date, the Client shall be liable, automatically and without prior notice of default, to pay a lump-sum indemnity equal to ten per cent (10%) of the overdue principal amount, with a minimum of forty (40) euro, without prejudice to Waanzin’s right to claim compensation for any higher recovery costs and losses actually incurred to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to Waanzin, any failure by the Client to pay an invoice on its due date shall entitle Waanzin to suspend the performance of its obligations, in whole or in part, and/or to terminate the agreement with immediate effect, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

To the extent that the Client publishes or otherwise makes available any Event-related Content on or through the Pierrot Application in which it owns or controls any intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights, the Client hereby grants to Waanzin a non-exclusive, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free licence to use, host, store, cache, reproduce, display, communicate to the public, make available, and otherwise process such Event-related Content solely as necessary to provide, operate, maintain, support, and improve the Pierrot Application.

In all cases where Waanzin may be held liable, its total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, whether in contract, tort, statute or otherwise, shall be limited to the lower of (i) the total fees actually paid by the Client under these General Terms and Conditions during the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, and (ii) the amount effectively paid out under Waanzin’s applicable liability insurance policy for the relevant claim.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Waanzin shall not be liable for any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Client as a result of, or in connection with, any services performed by third parties.
Force Majeure
Neither Party shall be liable for any delay in performance or failure to perform its obligations under these General Terms and Conditions to the extent such delay or failure results from an event or circumstance beyond its reasonable control, including any event of force majeure. Force majeure includes, without limitation, natural disasters, fire, flood, war, acts of terrorism, civil unrest, riots, strikes or other industrial action, epidemics, pandemics, interruption or failure of utilities or telecommunications networks, cyberattacks, failures of hosting or internet service providers, acts or omissions of public authorities, and any other event that could not reasonably have been foreseen, prevented, or overcome.

If the force majeure event continues for more than thirty (30) days, either party may terminate the agreement, in whole or in part, by written notice, without liability, provided that all services performed and amounts accrued prior to the effective date of termination shall remain due and payable.

Obligations of the processor
Processing based on written instructions - Waanzin shall only Process Personal Data on the basis of (i) the written instructions of the Client and in accordance with the Details of Processing as set out in Article 2 of this Schedule I, and (ii) its legal obligations. In the latter case, Waanzin shall notify the Client of that legal obligation prior to the Processing, unless the applicable legislation prohibits such notification for important reasons of public interest. Any Processing other than that described above is strictly prohibited. If Waanzin considers that the instructions of the Client violate the Data Protection Legislation, Waanzin shall immediately notify the Client unless the legislation prohibits such notification for important reasons of public interest.
Reliability and confidentiality - Waanzin guarantees the reliability of all its employees, representatives, contractors, or Subprocessors who may have access to Personal Data of the Client. It also guarantees that those individuals are bound by confidentiality, either by an appropriate statutory or deontological obligation or by a confidentiality agreement.
Security - Taking into account the state of the art, the cost of implementation, as well as the nature, scope, context, purposes of processing, and the risks to the rights and freedoms of individuals that vary in terms of probability and severity, Waanzin shall implement appropriate Security Measures to ensure a risk-appropriate level of security, which shall include, where appropriate, the measures referred to in Article 32 (1) of the GDPR. In particular, Waanzin shall protect the Personal Data against destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, and any other form of unlawful Processing.

General provisions
Liability - Without prejudice to Article 12 of the General Terms and Conditions, Waanzin shall only be liable for the damage caused by the Processing if it has failed to comply with the obligations of the GDPR specifically directed to Processors or if it has acted outside or in violation of the lawful instructions of the Client. In no case shall Waanzin be liable if it proves that it is not responsible for the event that led to the damage. If it appears that both the Client and Waanzin are responsible for the damage caused by the Processing of Personal Data, both parties shall be liable and shall pay compensation in accordance with their individual share of responsibility for the damage caused by the Processing.
Precedence - This Schedule I is an integral part of the General Terms and Conditions. In the event of any conflict between this Schedule I and the main body of the General Terms and Conditions, the provisions of this Schedule I shall prevail.
