The User therefore waives his own general and/or specific terms and conditions, even if they state that they take precedence. WDP is free to amend these Terms and Conditions at any time and these amendments will be applicable on the date of the first notification thereof, through any medium (e.g. the MyWDP Portal).

2. ACCESS TO THE MYWDP-PORTAL

2.1. WDP takes the initiative to invite its Customers to use the MyWDP Portal. The Customer will receive an invitation by email addressed to the Customer's Admin User. After filling in the contact details, the Admin User will have the possibility to give four (4) other persons (at least partial) access to the MyWDP Portal.

2.2. Access to the MyWDP Portal is largely determined by the Customer himself, in the sense that he:

• Is responsible for indicating up to five (5) natural persons (the Users, including the Admin User) who may be granted access to the MyWDP Portal;
• He will have to determine the role per User with the corresponding authorisations and the respective data to which he/she may have access.

2.3. Access to the MyWDP Portal is exclusively reserved for WDP Customers. The termination of the contractual relationship between WDP and the Customer consequently implies the end of access to the MyWDP Portal.

3.1. WDP grants you as a Customer a temporary, non-exclusive and non-transferable right to use the Service for professional purposes.  Any other use, whether in return for payment or not, is prohibited.

3.2. To facilitate the provision of the Service, it may be necessary to download and install certain programs and/or data files (e.g. cookies) on your device. By using the Service, you are informed of, and agree to WDP installing such data files and/or programs.

3.3. If you commit a serious and/or repeated breach of your obligations under these Terms and Conditions, WDP may suspend the provision of the Service by simple written notice until you have fulfilled all your obligations, or terminate the Service automatically, by operation of law and without prior notice, without notice or compensation.

3.4. WDP does its best to display correct and up-to-date information on the MyWDP Portal and can amend and update this information without prior notification. However, WDP, its management, employees and third parties referred to on the MyWDP Portal do not guarantee, either implicitly or explicitly, that the MyWDP Portal functions accurately, error-free or virus-free, nor that the content of the MyWDP Portal is at all times correct and/or complete, and they explicitly reject any liability for direct or indirect damage resulting from the access to and/or the use of the MyWDP Portal by the Customer.

3.5. The MyWDP Portal may contain hyperlinks to other websites which are possibly not checked in technical terms, nor are subject to revision, by WDP. Consequently, WDP, its management, its employees and third parties, cannot guarantee the completeness or accuracy of the contents, offered through such links, or the availability of these websites. Consequently, WDP does not accept liability for any direct or indirect damage caused by the use of these hyperlinks and/or websites.

3.7. WDP can only be held liable in case of fraud or gross negligence of itself or one of its employees. In that case WDP’s liability shall be limited to repairing the foreseeable, direct, personal and definite damage suffered by the Customer, with the exclusion of the repair of indirect or immaterial damage such as additional costs, loss of income or profit, loss of clients, loss or damage of data, loss of contracts, damage to third parties, etc.

WDP is under no circumstances liable for any direct or indirect damage suffered by a Customer in case of an Incident. WDP rejects all responsibility in case of interruption, even temporary, of the Service it offers to its Customers.
