15.1 Governing Law

These Terms are governed by Dutch law. If you are a consumer, you also enjoy the protection of any mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence.

15.2 Jurisdiction

Disputes will be submitted to the competent Dutch court, being the court of the district in which My Food Forest B.V. has its registered office (Rechtbank Noord-Nederland), unless mandatory law designates another court.

If you are a consumer, you may also bring the dispute before the court that is competent under statutory rules. If we invoke this jurisdiction clause against you, you have one month from the moment we do so in writing to choose the court that is competent under statutory rules.

Before pursuing legal action, we encourage resolution through:

16. Consumer Rights (EU/Dutch Law)

16.1 Right of Withdrawal

If you purchase a paid digital service from us as a consumer, you have a 14-day right of withdrawal. For digital content or services delivered immediately, you only lose this right if you expressly consent to immediate performance and acknowledge that you thereby lose your right of withdrawal (Article 6:230p of the Dutch Civil Code). As long as our Services are free of charge, no right of withdrawal applies because there is no purchase.

16.2 Conformity Rights

Digital services must conform to the contract. If they don’t, you may be entitled to repair, replacement, price reduction, or contract termination.

16.3 Unfair Terms

Unfair contract terms are not binding on consumers under Dutch and EU law.

17. Force Majeure

We are not liable for delays or failures due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, government actions, internet outages, or other force majeure events.

18. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

We will notify you of such a transfer, after which you may terminate your Account free of charge if you do not wish to continue with the new party. You may not assign your rights under these Terms without our written consent.

20. Changes to Terms

20.2 Your Choices

If you do not agree to a material change, you may terminate your account free of charge before the change takes effect. Continued use of our Services after the effective date of a change of which you were notified constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
