General Terms & Conditions of FacilityLockers

Entry into force on […]

FacilityLockers is an original solution, whose technology is based on the use of lockers (the “Locker(s)”), allowing users to :

  • drop off and collect items from the Lockers, and subscribe to services (the “Service(s)”) via the website http://www.myservicebox.com/ (the “Website”) or via a web terminal;
  • request deliveries to the Lockers (the “Delivery Service(s)”).

The FacilityLockers solution is owned by TRIBOX EU S.P.R.L. (“TRIBOX”), a Belgian company having its registered office at rue du Serpentin 18 in 1050 Brussels, Belgium, registered with the Crossroad Bank of Enterprises under the number 0537.931.514.

The above contractual relationships are ruled by the terms and conditions of the independent Suppliers or the other websites.

TRIBOX is presumed to be in one of those cases of exemption; it will not have to prove the unpredictability or the irresistibility of the event, nor its inability to perform its obligations.

Unless by mandatory legal provision, TRIBOX is under no obligation to compensate damage arising from a case of force majeure, whatever the nature of the damage, direct or indirect, foreseeable or unforeseeable.

TRIBOX shall communicate the existence of the force majeure to the Customer as soon as possible.

These changes are applicable as soon as they are published on the Website. The use of the Website or the access to a terminal after the publication of the modification of the General Terms & Conditions signifies the acceptance of this modified version of the General Terms & Conditions.

The Customer is requested to consult the General Terms & Conditions regularly.

Article 12. Settlement of disputes

12.1. When a conflict relating to the interpretation and/or the fulfillment of the contract and the present General Terms & Conditions arises, the Customer must contact one of TRIBOX’s representatives as soon as possible (see ‘contact’ section on the Website).TRIBOX will do its utmost to address the problems, claims and observations of the Customer in a constructive manner, but always with reference to the General Terms & Conditions. TRIBOX will not tolerate any form of intimidation, defamation, threat, unreasonable behavior, offense or unfounded incrimination aimed at TRIBOX or one of TRIBOX’s representatives. This behavior will result directly in the line of communication being handed over to our specialized legal team.

12.2. If TRIBOX and the Customer cannot reach an agreement on the repair, replacement, or compensation with respect to an item after a period of two months, they shall bring the dispute either before the relevant Consumer Arbitration Commission (for example, CACET asbl) or before the ordinary courts.

Once the Arbitration Commission has been chosen, the ensuing decision shall be binding and without appeal in accordance with the clauses of the Judicial Code (article 1676 and following).

All procedures before the Arbitration Commission must be brought in accordance with the Commission’s regulations.

If the parties bring the disputes before the ordinary courts, only the Courts of the judicial district of Brussels are authorized, as far as legally admissible. These Courts will have exclusive jurisdiction for all issues, conflicts and disputes concerning the validity, the interpretation, the enforcement or the termination of the contract between the parties. The language used for legal disputes will be French. In order to facilitate the communication with the other party, TRIBOX may decide - at its own discretion - to use the English language, but this is never to be considered as an obligation.

12.3. All issues, questions and disputes concerning the validity, the interpretation, the enforcement or the termination of the contract between the parties shall only be governed and construed by Belgian law. No effect shall be given to any other choice of law or to any conflict-of-law rules or provisions (Belgian, foreign or international) that would result in the appliance of another law or of the Vienna convention concerning international sales.

Article 13. Miscellaneous provisions

13.1. The provisions contained in each article of these General Terms & Conditions shall be enforceable independently of each of the others, and their validity shall not be affected if any of the others is deemed invalid. If any of these provisions is void but would be valid if some part of the provision were deleted, the provision in question shall apply with such modifications as may be necessary to make it valid.

If a provision is found to be lacking in these General Terms & Conditions, the parties will refer to the procedures in force in the remote sales sector whose companies have headquarters in Belgium.
