C-iD is not liable for the inaccuracy, incompleteness or inaccuracy of information provided or obtained by third parties. No obligation for C-iD can arise from this external information.
1.1 Access to C-iD platform and app
The application of C-iD is activated after registration via the platform www.c-id.org or after downloading the app from the app store and at the first use. The user declares to know that C-iD only recognizes the 2 largest app stores and undertakes to download the app from either the apple App Store or the Google Play Store. C-iD may terminate access to C-iD platform and the app immediately and without notice of default if the user has not logged into C-iD for a continuous period of six months and/or if the user has not installed two or more consecutive updates.
1.2 Availability
C-iD guarantees the continuity of C-iD and the associated services to the best of its ability. It is responsible for the security of its systems. C-iD may interrupt services for maintenance of existing equipment and software or for the installation of new versions of software, if such interruptions are of reasonable duration. These interruptions do not entitle the user or (legal) person in whose name and on whose behalf to compensation.
1.3 New versions
The user knows that C-iD will regularly release new versions of the platform and the app (hereinafter "updates"). The user who has opted for automatic updates will always have the most recent version of the app without having to do anything.
The user who does his updates manually will receive a notification of the updates in the app store on his device.
The user knows that, once they have installed the update, they will no longer be able to use the previous version of the app.
2 Activating the C-iD app
2.1 The user already has an account through the C-iD platform
The user can log in to the app with the same account (email address and password) as on the platform www.c-id.org.
2.2 The user doesn't have an account yet from C-iD
The new user can register and create a user profile in the app and agrees to the provisions of these terms of use, where applicable (also) in the name and account of the (legal) person on whose behalf he is acting. From then on, he can use a limited number of services and functionalities. Creating a user profile does not equate to going through a customer transformation process and does not give the user access to the services and functionalities that are only available to users who have a customer relationship or paid license with C-iD.
The user can start the customer transformation process via the C-iD platform. The user has the choice between the possibilities (licenses) that C-iD offers at that moment. The user must closely follow the various steps that the process imposes.
Once the user has completed the customer registration process, he will have access, under certain conditions according to the chosen customer formula or user license, to the services and functionalities that are only available to users who have a customer relationship with C-iD.
C-iD must thoroughly identify the customer through the possibilities offered. The user acknowledges that certain questions or fields may be asked for identification. The user can receive these questions at a later time when using the platform or the app, or further supplement them via his user profile, when he first performs a certain assignment or functionality.
3 Identification of the user in the context of accessing and using C-iD
If the user has a customer relationship with C-iD, he is identified with the means of access when signing and at login.
When the user registers for the first time, he must agree to the agreement and other applicable conditions that the user must accept, where appropriate (also) in the name and on behalf of the (legal) person on whose behalf he acts (legal representative or power of attorney holder).
4 Services and functionalities associated with C-iD
4.1 General
A number of services and functionalities are assigned to each user by default. Other services and functionalities depend on the user group to which the user and/or the (legal) person in whose name and on whose behalf the user acts, or on compliance with additional conditions. Still others must be activated separately by the user.
The user acknowledges that even before the conclusion of the agreement, he has received all the documents that constitute the agreement and all information about the characteristics and functions of the additional services and functionalities offered in C-iD, so that he can check whether or not he wants to use the application and that he can only use the additional services under the conditions stipulated in the agreement.
In order to improve the ease of use and the experience of the C-iD user, the user is forwarded to the C-iD environment and platform in the sales processes. There, the user can select a usage license from a customer formula.
With C-iD, the user can, if necessary (also) in the name and on behalf of the (legal) person for whom he acts, also subscribe to agreements with an affiliated company of C-iD or with third parties.
In that case, C-iD only serves as a platform for the conclusion of that agreement. In that case, the user does not enter into a contract with C-iD but with that affiliated company or with the third party, which must comply with all applicable laws and regulations. C-iD does not act as an intermediary and does not mediate between the user and those other entities or those third parties. These agreements are subject to their own terms and conditions.
4.2 Liability
The liability of C-iD towards the user as a result of a shortcoming of C-iD can under no circumstances give rise to compensation for indirect damage of a financial, commercial or other nature.
C-iD cannot be held liable for direct or indirect damage that could result for the user from a total or partial disruption of its services due to force majeure.
Force majeure is any unforeseeable event that escapes the reasonable control of a party and makes the performance of its obligations reasonably impossible or seriously impedes it. Force majeure includes, but is not limited to:
The user understands and accepts that C-iD cannot be held liable for the damage suffered by the user as a result of acts or omissions of third parties and/or acts or omissions of the user, including, but not limited to:
C-iD will use reasonable means to ensure that access to the platform and the app and its proper functioning are as undisturbed as possible. C-iD does not guarantee continuous and undisturbed use of the services and functions. For example, there may be circumstances, for example overloading the network, as a result of which the services and functionalities are temporarily not (fully) available. The user is also aware that malfunctions and/or the unavailability of an internet connection can hinder the use of the services and functionalities both within the platform and the app.
C-iD may temporarily limit or interrupt the use for updates, maintenance and the development of new services and functionalities, without C-iD owing any compensation. C-iD will inform the user in good time where reasonably possible.

C-iD can also implement changes in the context of security and updates at any time and immediately when C-iD deems it necessary.
C-iD reserves the right to change the conditions for enjoying the services and functions at any time.

The user knows that after sharing items, such as buildings or passports, these and their child items are also visible by default to the user with whom he has shared them.
When sharing, the selected user becomes co-administrator of the file (site) and all underlying buildings, housing units and passports (C-iDs).

When transferring, the selected user becomes the new owner of the file (site) and all underlying buildings, residential units and passports (C-iDs), after which the user who performs the action himself no longer has access to the relevant file. Transactions of files cannot be revoked and can only be appealed to the new owner afterwards.

The passports (C-iDs) of the building elements offered for sale are public and visible to all visitors to the website as well as to all users on the platform and in the app in the second-hand section "2nd hand".
