Part 1. Object, scope and definitions
Article 1. – Credit customer service
This service is offered professional customers with at least 10 vehicles. The customer must have a VAT number.
Following subscription to this service and subject to the creation of a direct debit, Autosécurité grants the customer the right to access a monthly payment service for technical inspections carried out by the customer at one or more chosen inspection centres, throughout duration of the contract.
After completion and validation of the subscription form on line and receipt of the signed direct debit mandate, Autosécurité will issue credit customers with a purchase order to be presented to our reception staff. This must be printed out and completed in its entirety (both parts) before each technical inspection is carried out.
After the inspection, the data relating to this purchase order will be stored and passed to the accounts department so that the monthly invoice can be established. Inspections will be invoiced on a monthly basis and the amount for services provided during the past month will be deducted from the nominated bank account a few days after despatch of the invoice.
Invoices will be sent solely by email.

Article 2. – Scope
These conditions define the terms of use of the credit customer service and the rights and obligations arising from subscription to this service, both for the customer and for Autosécurité. They are without prejudice to the mutual rights and obligations of the parties under the law, in particular the Royal Decrees of 15 March 1968 and 23 December 1994 governing the technical inspection of vehicles.

Article 3 Definitions
In the present general conditions, the terms below shall be understood as follows:
– Inspection centre: any motor vehicle inspection centre controlled by the company Autosécurité S.A.
– Customer: any person with a contractual relationship with Autosécurité for the use of the present service, or mandated specifically to that effect.
– Credit customer: a) the service identified in article 1, or b) the customer subscribing to this service, on condition that this customer has at least 10 vehicles.
– Person: a natural or legal person or a de facto association.
– Personal data: any data relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, directly or indirectly, and collected while fulfilling the public service missions conferred, or during the use of this website and the applications offered.

Article 4. – Payment
Payment must be made by direct debit. Any refusal of direct debit or cancellation of the same will lead to the withdrawal of the credit line and termination of the contract.
Our invoices and debit notes are payable in cash and without discount.
No payment delays will be granted.
In the event of late payment, unless expressly otherwise agreed in writing, late payment interest calculated at the rate of 2% per month, any part month being considered as a full month, shall be due automatically and without prior notice, by the sole fact of the due date of the invoice, on all sums due at 30 days from the end of the month in which the said invoice was issued.
In the event of late payment, or if the direct debit mandate is cancelled, the service will be automatically suspended until full and effective payment of the amounts due by the customer, or the issue of a new direct debit mandate by the latter.
In every case, two successive late payments attributable to the customer will result in the interruption of the credit line and the termination of this agreement, to the detriment of the latter.

Part 2. Rights and obligations of the parties, liability
Article 5 – Undertakings and responsibilities of the credit customer
5.1 The credit customer gives Autosécurité a direct debit mandate so that Autosécurité can draw a monthly sum equal to the charge for technical inspections carried out during the month. This amount is established on the basis of services carried out and recorded in the purchase orders.
To this end, the credit customer completes the application form to subscribe to the service, providing his bank account number and the necessary identification data.
The customer undertakes to take the measures and make the arrangements necessary to ensure that the sum due is available in his account at the time of withdrawal.
5.2 The customer undertakes to follow Autosécurité’s instructions for the use of the service.
The purchase order issued needs to be submitted by the customer at the beginning of the inspection. This payment method will be the only one accepted within the framework of this service. No other means of payment (cash, electronic, credit card…) will be accepted by the staff of Autosécurité and the inspection will not be performed.
5.3 The customer alone is responsible for the use made of the purchase orders provided by Autosécurité. These are specific to the identified customer and may under no circumstances be entrusted, loaned or transferred to a third party.
If at any time the customer has doubts as to the use that may be made of this account, he must inform the Autosécurité accounts department as soon as possible at the address given in article 7.2 so that his credit customer number can be blocked.
Autosécurité declines all responsibility for any misuse of purchase orders by an unauthorised or unqualified third party.

6.4 Autosécurité may not be held liable by the customer for any failure in the performance of this service due to force majeure as defined in case-law, or for any situation beyond Autosécurité’s reasonable control, including technical breakdowns, interruption or failure of the internet or any other network, the power supply network or electrical infrastructures, or any supplier of such infrastructures and networks. Autosécurité shall nevertheless inform the customer without delay should such a situation arise.
6.5 Without prejudice to the following, and except in the case of fraud or gross negligence, Autosécurité cannot be held responsible for any damage occurring to the customer, or to any third party (including the customer’s own customers) as a result of:
– Failure by the customer to comply with his obligations under these regulations or any legislation to which he may be subject in his relationships with his own customers;
– The impossibility of creating the necessary connection, interruptions to this connection in any way, or problems in sending and receiving transactions, due to third parties;
– Any delay in execution due to third parties;
– Any temporary interruption of the service, or any interruption due to third parties;
– Inaccurate or incomplete data provided by the customer;
– Any negligence or the existence of an error on the part of the customer himself;
– Any problem in terms of the veracity, authenticity, credibility or timeliness of the orders received.
6.6 The adaptation by Autosécurité of the characteristics or technical requirements of the service may under no circumstances, except in the event of gross negligence or fraud, incur Autosécurité’s liability towards the customer. Autosécurité reserves the right to amend these conditions at any time.
