§ 2 Objectives
ECO-EXPORT wants to provide the company placing an order with ECO-EXPORT (referred to as the “Client”) with interested sales partners (“candidates”) so that the Client can enter into sales activities with one or more sales partners.

§ 3 Subject of the contract
The subject of the contract is the delivery of services through ECO-EXPORT, described in www.eco-export.com. ECO-EXPORT is entitled to carry out all services through own staff or through external service providers.

§ 4 Fees
(1) The fees and conditions mentioned on the website from §3 apply, at the time of entering into the contract, if not agreed otherwise in the contract.
(2) The fees and commissions for ECO-EXPORT consist of one or more of the following components:
Before starting the project: fee for handling and communication
(a) upfront handling fee for research, preparation of documents and consultation with the Client.
For the STARTER service, this fee includes two candidates according to c. (see below)
(b) Fee per sales partner that ECO-EXPORT contacts and evaluates on behalf of the Client.
ECO-EXPORT will start delivering the services described in §3 within 10 working days after receipt of payment from a. and b.
When delivering candidates (STARTER): fee per candidate
(c) Fee per candidate that ECO-EXPORT delivers to the Client.
This is due each time ECO-EXPORT sends the contact details of a candidate to the Client, regardless of whether the Client gets into contact with the candidate at all.
When successful: fees or commissions
ECO-EXPORT will receive additional fees and / or commissions each time the Client chooses to cooperate with one of the candidates in whatever way and even
without written form – or if the Client employs the candidate – within 24 months after receiving the respective candidate contact data from ECO-EXPORT.
(d) Commission payments per candidate: The commissions are based on the net sales generated by the candidate for the Client (gross sales without VAT) and are due
quarterly. The commission period starts with the start of cooperation or employment and automatically ends after 48 months.
(e) Success fee per candidate: ECO-EXPORT receives a one-time success fee per candidate which is due
– at the beginning of the cooperation or employment
– when the new sales partner generates a minimum sales volume for the Client and the Client has received the payment for these sales.
The amount of this minimum sales volume is agreed between ECO-EXPORT and the Client in a separate contract.
(3) All fees are net amounts and shall be invoiced with the applicable VAT. The invoice amounts shall be due immediately and must be paid by the Client without any delay or deductions.
(4) All fees and remunerations which have been paid by the Client will not be – fully or partially – refunded by ECO-EXPORT.
(5) If the Client is delayed in paying the due invoices, ECO-EXPORT has the right to stop the fullfillment of the agreed services immediately.

§ 5 Duties of the Client
(1) After receiving the profile of a candidate, the Client has 14 days time
– to inform ECO-EXPORT in writing that he will not get into contact with this candidate or
– to try to make contact with this candidate and give written feedback on the results of this communication to ECO-EXPORT.
If he fails to do so, the success fee as per §4 (2) is due automatically.
(2) The Client shall inform ECO-EXPORT immediately if he chooses to cooperate with one of the candidates in whatever way and even without written form, or if the Client employs the candidate.
(3) For the Client, ECO-EXPORT communicates with numerous sales partners from the target region. If one of these sales partners – that ECO-EXPORT had previously contacted – gets in touch with the Client independently of ECO-EXPORT, the Client shall refer and forward this sales partner to ECO-EXPORT for further communication. Otherwise this sales partner is classified as a candidate as per §4 (2) b.
(4) If the Client, by his own fault, does not pay due fees mentioned in §4 (2) or §5 (1)-(3), then ECO-EXPORT reserves the right to recommend all candidates not to enter into a cooperation with the Client. ECO-EXPORT also reserves the right to decline any future orders from this Client.

§ 6 Guarantees and liability
(1) The Client guarantees that the information and material provided to ECO-EXPORT within the scope of this contract is free from the rights of third parties and does not infringe statutory regulations. The Client shall indemnify ECO-EXPORT against any resulting claims from third parties in all cases, as well as against the costs associated with such claims.
(2) The profiles ECO-EXPORT supplies to the Client are based on the information provided by the candidates as well as by third parties. ECO-EXPORT assumes no liability for the correctness or completeness of the profiles. The Client is exclusively responsible for verifying and selecting the candidate.

All claims for compensation against ECO-EXPORT, its contractors, suppliers or partners shall be excluded, with the exception of claims based on wilful intent or grossly negligent actions.

(3) If the contract is terminated by the Client, the claims as per §4 (2) remain unaffected.

§ 8 Data Protection
(1) ECO-EXPORT points out that within the process of delivering the agreed services personal data will be stored.
