Greenomy legals
Effective date: 1st of July 2024
These General Terms and Conditions (“GTCs”) govern the Services provided by Greenomy SRL (“Greenomy”) pursuant to the Form signed by the Parties, to which these GTC’s are incorporated by reference. Capitalised terms are defined under Section 16 of these GTCs.
The Services to be provided by Greenomy to the Client and the number of authorised End Clients as the case may be, the level of support, as well as the right to access the specified Product are dependent upon the chosen subscription plan and are set out in the Form.
The Client acknowledges and agrees that the Services are made available as a software-as-a-service. Accordingly, due to the nature of software-as-a-service, the Client is not subscribing to a fixed set of specifications and functionality or the expectation of any future functionality.
The Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and continue for the Term, unless terminated earlier pursuant to the Agreement. The Agreement will be renewed automatically for the same Term, unless terminated, by either Party at least 30 days prior to the end of the Term or otherwise specified in the Form.
Greenomy shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations with respect to the provision of the Services and shall maintain all necessary licences, consents and permissions necessary for the performance of its obligations under the Agreement.
During the Term, Greenomy shall provide the Services in accordance with the Agreement and using industry standard care and skill.
Greenomy uses subcontractors for the performance of the Services. Greenomy is responsible to the Client for the services performed by a subcontractor. To the fullest extent possible under applicable law, no subcontractor will have any liability to the Client and the Client will not bring any claim in any way in respect of or in connection with the Agreement against any subcontractor. Greenomy will bear all responsibility for its subcontractors. The fact that Greenomy entrusts all or part of its obligations to any third party does not absolve Greenomy’s liability to the Client.
Access to the Platform is granted 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in accordance with and subject to the Service Level Agreement.
The level of support and response time offered by Greenomy are set out in the Form and the Service Level Agreement.
The Client shall use and shall procure that the Users and End Clients, as the case may be, use the Services, during the Term, in accordance with the Agreement and in respect of all applicable laws.
The Client shall be responsible for:
i. ensuring it has appropriate infrastructure to access and use the Services;
ii. any breach of the Agreement by a User or End Client;
iii. compliance with all applicable laws and regulations with respect to its activities under the Agreement;
iv. ensuring that no other user or entity but the authorised number of entities pursuant to the Form shall access the Services;
v. ensuring that the Personal Data required to use the Services as well as the Raw Data entered into the Platform is true, accurate and up to date.
Performance of the Services is in principle conditioned by the payment of the Fees by the Client, as determined in the Form. Fees are invoiced at the beginning of the Term. Unless otherwise specified in the Form, Fees are due and payable 30 days from the date of invoice.
All Fees shall be invoiced and payable in EUR and are exclusive of VAT, or any other tax as may be applicable (which must be paid by the Client in addition to the amount stated in the Form). Fees are not refundable or cancellable, except as may be set out in the Agreement.
If any amount properly owing to Greenomy remains unpaid on its due date, Greenomy may, after an unsuccessful written warning letter with an additional 30 days payment deadline, charge late payment interest at the legal rate applicable in Belgium for late payment in commercial matters.
When any payment remains outstanding 30 days after the due date of an undisputed invoice, Greenomy reserves the right to suspend the Services without further act or formality.
When any payment remains outstanding 60 days after the due date of an undisputed invoice, Greenomy reserves the right to terminate the Agreement without further act or formality.
The exercise of the above rights by Greenomy is without prejudice to any other right or remedy that Greenomy may have under any provision of the Agreement or the applicable law.
Any dispute on an invoice shall be raised in good faith and addressed to Greenomy ([email protected]) within 30 days following the date of the invoice. Parties commit to resolve the dispute in good faith and in a timely manner.
Greenomy reserves the right to amend the Fees in the event of a modification in the scope of the Services. In such an event, Greenomy shall inform the Client at least 30 days before the revised Fees enter into force. Should the Client disagree with the application of the revised Fees, the Client is authorised to terminate the Agreement by giving a 30 day written notice, and without such revised Fees being applicable. In addition, the Fees will be automatically revised on a yearly basis following the variations of the Belgian Agoria index based on the following formula: Vn=Vo (0.2 + 0.8 Sn/So), where: (i) Vn = invoiced price; (ii) Vo = initial base price at the date of signature of the Agreement; (iii) Sn = Agoria index (national average) for reference labour costs DIGITAL of the month preceding the index date; (iv) So = same Agoria index (national average) for reference labour costs DIGITAL of the month preceding the signature of the Agreement.
Client agrees to be contacted for testimonials about its experience with the Services, which Greenomy may post online (Website, social media platforms, etc.) and use in its marketing materials.
In addition, Greenomy may request Client’s prior authorisation to display Client’s name and logo on its Website and for general marketing purposes. This authorisation cannot be unreasonably withheld. The Client may revoke this authorisation at any time by email request to [email protected].
The Services allow the Client and End Client, as the case may be, to upload, submit, store, send and, as the case may be, access Raw Data from other clients or end clients using the Platform.
The Client and End Client retain the ownership of such Raw Data.

In the event that the Client chooses to share its Output and/or Raw Data within the Greenomy Platform, the Client hereby grants Greenomy and its partners an unrestricted license to use such information. The Client may withdraw this licence at any moment, via the sharing options provided on the Platform, at which moment Greenomy will ensure Output or Raw Data is no longer accessible to Greenomy clients and partners.
The Client warrants and represents that it is authorised to grant the usage rights detailed in Section 6.4, if applicable, and that such grant of rights neither violates applicable law nor infringes the rights of third parties.
