General Terms and Conditions for Advertisers

We reserve the right to modify these general terms and conditions. You agree that the latest version of these general terms and conditions will always apply. Deviating agreements are only valid if they have been accepted by us in writing.

Article 1 – General

These general terms and conditions apply to every offer and agreement we enter into with you.
We will send you these general terms and conditions free of charge upon request. They are also available at www.hulc.io.
If a part of this Agreement is null or voidable, it does not change the validity of the rest of these general terms and conditions or the agreement to which they apply. The null or voided part will be replaced by a provision that follows the content of the null provision as closely as possible.

On this page, the agreements that apply to the use of the website hulc.io are available. The page is structured based on two separate agreements. The first agreement is a direct agreement entered into with the Hulc platform. It includes provisions relating to data, technology, and the account, hereinafter referred to as: ‘platform agreement’. When a deal arises between Publisher and client, a one-time, direct agreement is entered into with Hulc BV. This agreement is called the ‘Publication Agreement’. Dutch law exclusively applies to the platform agreement and article agreement. Disputes will be submitted to the competent court in Amsterdam.

Platform Agreement

When using the platform, the ‘client’ and ‘Publisher’ agree to the ‘platform agreement’. The articles within the ‘publication agreement’ do not apply to Hulc. Hulc reserves the right to modify the platform agreement. When using the platform, you agree to the most recent version of the platform agreement.

Article 3 – Product

Through an online digital platform (the ‘Platform’), Hulc offers a service where articles, social media posts, or other agreed forms of promotion are placed via Publisher channels for payment. This operation is hereinafter referred to as (the ‘Product’).

Article 4 – Registration

Users can register for the ‘Product’ through a secure login using their email address and personal details. All information must be filled in truthfully.

Article 5 – Liability

Hulc cannot be held liable for any damage that may be suffered as a result of using the platform or the product, unless the damage is the result of deliberate recklessness, intent, or gross negligence. Hulc takes as many measures as possible to provide a well-functioning and secure platform. However, it does not guarantee the accuracy of the product or the content of the platform in any way. Hulc is entitled to take the platform out of service (temporarily) or terminate the Product without prior notice and without having to provide a reason, and without this creating any right to compensation against Hulc.

Article 6 – Misuse

As a condition for using the Product, you agree not to offer any information, data, or content via the Platform that violates any law or regulation. Furthermore, you agree that you will:

not pretend to have an incorrect relationship with a person or company;
not enter non-public/secured areas of the Platform;
not send viruses, worms, junk mail, spam, chain letters, unsolicited offers, or advertisements of any kind and for any purpose;
not investigate, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Platform or any other related system or network, or act in violation of any security or authentication.
If Hulc suspects that you are not complying with the Platform Agreement, Hulc may deny you access to the Platform and the Product with immediate effect (permanently).

Article 6B Misuse as a condition of use part 2:

Communication outside the Hulc platform By accepting the general terms and conditions, you agree that you will communicate exclusively through the Hulc platform. Direct communication for finalizing the purchase of the relevant blog is not allowed. After the transaction, only communication about the current purchase is permitted; new agreements can only be concluded through the platform. In case of violation of this rule, you will receive a warning as a courtesy. Upon repetition, your account will be removed. In case of repetition within your organization, your organization will also be removed from the platform.

Article 7 – Disclosure of information

Hulc reserves the right at all times to disclose information (i) to defend itself in legal proceedings, (ii) to comply with a court order, (iii) to comply with all laws, regulations or government requests, (iv) to protect national security, defense, public safety and public health, and (v) to enforce its rights.

Article 8 – Force Majeure

We are not liable if we cannot fulfill the agreement with you due to force majeure. This also applies if you cannot fulfill the agreement due to force majeure. If the force majeure lasts longer than 30 days, this agreement can be terminated in writing. In that case, there is no right to compensation. We will send you an invoice for the (not yet paid) period that you have used the Software.

Publication Agreement

Article 9 – Purchase Agreement

When a mutual agreement is reached through the use of the Hulc platform, a mutual agreement between Publisher and client is created.

Article 10 – Mutual Agreement

Hulc strives to handle each proposal correctly, but Publisher and client must make efforts to reach a mutual agreement. If the conditions of the other interested party are not met, Hulc reserves the right to dissolve the agreement or cancel the purchase agreement. Hulc also reserves the right to dissolve or cancel the agreement if the conditions of the publication agreement are not met.

Article 11 – Costs and Price

When a proposal is made by the Publisher, it shows a selling price set by the Publisher, including the commission to Hulc. The client has the option to agree to this. When the product is delivered and the client indicates satisfaction, Hulc pays out the agreed amount minus the commission to the Publisher. This amount is paid through monthly settlement. The compensation is always a monetary amount. It is not allowed to send products or provide services outside of Hulc.

Article 12 – VAT

The prices mentioned in the service offer are excluding VAT. The agreed price of the service to be delivered is 100% of the amount. The amount paid by the Client consists of the price of the product, plus 21% VAT.

Article 13 – Duration of Agreement

When an agreement is made, the delivered product must be permanently present (unless otherwise agreed) on the agreed website. If this agreement is not complied with, Hulc reserves the right to claim the paid amount from the Publisher.

Article 14 – Delivery Time

When a proposal is approved, the Publisher must deliver the product within at least 30 days. If Publisher and client have agreed on a different term, the 30-day term expires and the agreed term is maintained.

Article 15 – Approval of Delivery

The assignment delivered by the Publisher must be approved by the Client within 7 days. During these 7 days, the Client has the opportunity to have any changes implemented. If no action is taken within 7 days, the assignment is automatically approved.

Article 16 – Risks

Purchasing external content with dofollow backlinks is not entirely risk-free. Hulc strives to provide the safest possible Publishers and ensure a successful transaction. However, it does not guarantee that search engines cannot make interventions. Hulc cannot be held liable for damage suffered due to such changes.

Article 17 – Liability

Hulc is not liable for any damage you may suffer as a result of using the product or the Platform, unless such damage is caused by intent, gross negligence, or deliberate recklessness. Although Hulc takes as many measures as possible to ensure a safe purchase, it does not guarantee in any way the content of the Platform or the accuracy of the ‘product’. Hulc is not liable for the consequences of any inaccuracies regarding the Platform Service, the Platform, or product. Hulc is entitled to take the Platform out of service (temporarily) or limit its use without prior notice, or to terminate the Platform Service without having to provide a reason and without creating any right to compensation against Hulc.
