General terms and conditions Safehub

1. INTRODUCTION
DEKRA Industrial AB ("DEKRA") performs inspections, surveys and tests for its customers. In order to easily share the results of DEKRA's services with the customer and enable the customer to administer its inspection objects, DEKRA provides a customer portal (the "Customer Portal"). These general terms and conditions apply to DEKRA's delivery of the Customer Portal.
These general terms and conditions for use of the Customer Portal (the "Customer Portal Agreement"), together with the agreement regarding delivery of service between the customer and DEKRA (the "Service Agreement"), constitute the parties' agreement. The Service Agreement constitutes a fundamental condition for the customer's use of the Customer Portal and the customer is not entitled to use the Customer Portal if the Service Agreement ceases to apply between the parties.
Customer means the legal entity with which DEKRA has entered into an agreement. User means a natural person who, on behalf of the customer, is authorised to administer the customer's objects in the Customer Portal. The customer is always responsible for the actions of its users as if such actions were its own.
2. ABOUT THE CUSTOMER PORTAL
The Customer Portal gives the customer access to an administrative platform where DEKRA and the customer share information about the customer's objects. The results produced by DEKRA within the framework of the Service Agreement are provided via the Customer Portal.
The customer does not acquire the Customer Portal or a copy thereof and is not granted a licence to use the Customer Portal other than as an administrative platform. The Customer Portal Agreement grants the customer a non-exclusive and non-transferable right to use the Customer Portal in accordance with these terms and conditions.
The Customer Portal is provided in the version available at any given time. DEKRA reserves the right to unilaterally develop, make additions and changes, or to remove functionalities and correct errors or deficiencies in the Customer Portal. If a change, contrary to expectations, disables or permanently removes functionality that the customer considers to be an essential part of the Customer Portal, the customer is entitled to immediately terminate the Customer Portal Agreement.
It is not part of DEKRA's commitment to instruct or train customers or users in the Customer Portal or how to use it.
3. TERM AND TERMINATION
The Customer Portal Agreement is valid between the parties for the duration of the Service Agreement. However, DEKRA may unilaterally terminate the Customer Portal Agreement at any time giving thirty (30) days' notice. Termination of the Customer Portal Agreement does not entail termination of the Service Agreement.
In the event of termination of the Service Agreement, regardless of the reason, this Customer Portal Agreement shall also terminate on the same day as the Service Agreement.
If the customer or a user violates the Customer Portal Agreement, DEKRA is entitled to cancel the agreement and/or immediately suspend the customer and/or user from using the Customer Portal.
Upon termination of the Customer Portal Agreement, DEKRA is entitled to immediately terminate all users' accounts on the Customer Portal.
4. FEES
Any fees for the Customer Portal are set out in the Service Agreement.
5. CUSTOMER DATA
"Customer Data" means information, documentation and other data that the customer has entered into the Customer Portal or that has arisen as a result of the customer's use of the Customer Portal.
DEKRA does not claim any intellectual property rights, or ownership of any kind, to Customer Data, beyond what is required by the laws, regulations, authority decisions and professional obligations to which DEKRA is subject. However, DEKRA is always entitled to save a copy of Customer Data if this is required for DEKRA to fulfil its obligations as an accredited organisation.
DEKRA has no obligation to store, maintain or provide Customer Data, except to the extent required by the Service Agreement or applicable law. DEKRA has no responsibility to compensate the customer for lost information, documentation or other data.
Upon termination of the Customer Portal Agreement, the customer is responsible for copying any Customer Data from the Customer Portal that the customer may need for future use. The Customer Portal is not a storage service. After the termination of the Customer Portal Agreement, DEKRA has no obligation to store or continue to provide Customer Data.
The customer grants DEKRA a transferable, non-exclusive, sub-licensable, unlimited in time, place and scope of use right to all data extracted from the respective object belonging to the customer.
6. CUSTOMER COMMITMENTS

User accounts are registered and administered by DEKRA's customer service, which can be accessed via DEKRA's website. DEKRA undertakes to delete a user's account after the customer has notified DEKRA in accordance with point (iv) above that the user should no longer have access to the Customer Portal.

7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
DEKRA is responsible for ensuring that the contractual use of the Customer Portal does not infringe the rights of others. The customer shall without delay notify DEKRA of any claims from third parties regarding infringement of copyright or other intellectual property rights due to the customer's use of the Customer Portal. However, the customer is responsible for ensuring that such software that the customer uses within the framework of the use of the Customer Portal, and which the customer owns or is entitled to use under an agreement with a third party, does not infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties.
