Part A – General Terms
§ 1 Scope, B2B Restriction and Contract Architecture
1. These General Terms and Conditions apply to all contracts between BTC Mining Invest LLC, Bakhtrioni St. N 22, Flat 75, Tbilisi 0162, Georgia ("BTC"), and entrepreneurs, legal entities or other organizations acting in the course of business ("Contracting Partner"). They do not apply to contracts with consumers.
2. This system of General Terms and Conditions is modular. Part A contains the general provisions. Part B applies additionally to Bitcoin Mining and Mining Services, Part C to international trade, import and export, and Part D to Business Services. The respective Individual Contract determines which special Parts are incorporated.
3. Individually negotiated agreements take precedence over the special Parts. For the respective component of the services, the special Parts B, C or D take precedence over the general provisions of this Part A.
4. Where a contract comprises several different components of services, each special Part applies only to the component to which it is substantively attributable, unless expressly agreed otherwise.
5. Deviating or supplementary standard terms of the Contracting Partner apply only to the extent BTC has expressly agreed to their incorporation or their applicability necessarily follows from the applicable law. A mere reference to third-party terms and conditions does not, by itself, constitute BTC's express consent.
6. Cooperation with another company, in particular a supplier, operator, hosting provider, logistics company or other service provider, does not, in the absence of an express agreement, create a group relationship, authority to represent, or any other automatic legal relationship between BTC and that company.
§ 2 Offers, Formation of Contract and Contract Documents
1. Offers made by BTC are non-binding unless they are expressly designated as binding or a clear intention to be legally bound follows from their content and the circumstances.
2. A contract is formed by corresponding declarations of intent by the parties, in particular by acceptance of an offer, order confirmation, signature of an Individual Contract, or in another legally recognized manner.
3. The specific contract, including expressly incorporated offers, order confirmations, service descriptions, specifications, annexes, service levels, project agreements and other contract documents, is hereinafter referred to as the "Individual Contract".
4. In the event of inconsistencies within the contract documents, expressly and individually negotiated agreements take precedence. Otherwise, the order of precedence specified in the Individual Contract applies; if no such order is specified, the more specific provision takes precedence over the more general provision.
5. Statements in advertising materials, websites, presentations or non-binding product information become part of the contract only if they are incorporated into the Individual Contract or expressly confirmed as binding.
6. Amendments and supplements should be documented in a manner that makes the content, the affected contract and the parties' consent traceable. Mandatory statutory form requirements remain unaffected.
§ 3 Scope of Services and Use of Third Parties
1. The nature, scope, quality and limitations of the services owed by BTC are set out in the Individual Contract.
2. BTC owes only the expressly agreed services and such ancillary services as are objectively necessary for the proper performance of the principal obligations expressly assumed.
3. BTC is entitled to use employees, assistants, operators, hosting providers, carriers, advisers, specialists or other suitable third parties unless personal performance has been expressly agreed or mandatory law provides otherwise.
4. The legal attribution of acts of third parties used for performance is governed by the Individual Contract, the actual legal classification of the service and the applicable law.
5. Where a third party is engaged directly by the Contracting Partner, BTC does not become a party to that third-party contract merely by coordinating or communicating with that third party.
6. BTC is not obliged to perform services whose performance would be unlawful, would require an authorization that is not held, or would violate sanctions, export controls, anti-money-laundering rules or other mandatory law.
§ 4 Remuneration, Prices, Currencies, Taxes and Invoicing
1. Prices and remuneration are set out in the Individual Contract. Unless stated otherwise, prices are exclusive of taxes, duties, customs charges and third-party costs additionally payable by law or contract.
2. The contract and invoice currency is specified in the Individual Contract. To the extent Georgian law or binding requirements of the National Bank of Georgia require payment or accounting in GEL for the specific transaction, those requirements prevail.
3. Monetary claims of BTC arising from transactions in goods and services are fiat-money claims in the agreed legal currency. Virtual assets, in particular Bitcoin or stablecoins, are not accepted directly as consideration for goods or services supplied by BTC to the extent such acceptance is prohibited under the Georgian law applicable to BTC.
4. Lawful payment routes through an authorized Virtual Asset Service Provider or other service provider remain permitted where the payer uses virtual assets vis-à-vis that service provider and BTC receives exclusively the fiat amount owed.
5. Taxes, withholding taxes, value-added taxes, customs duties and other public charges are treated in accordance with the applicable law and the allocation of risk provided for in the Individual Contract.
6. Invoices may be issued electronically. The Contracting Partner shall promptly inform BTC of any requirements that are material to invoicing required by law or contract.
§ 5 Payment Terms, Due Date and Default
1. Unless otherwise agreed in the Individual Contract, invoices are payable without deduction within 10 calendar days from the invoice date.
2. A payment is generally deemed made only when the amount owed has been credited to the account designated by BTC, unless mandatory law provides otherwise.
3. In the event of payment default, the Contracting Partner shall, to the extent legally permissible and unless otherwise agreed, owe default interest at 10% per annum on the due amount. No compound interest shall be charged.
4. Further statutory claims arising from default, in particular compensation for demonstrable additional loss, remain unaffected.
5. Where there are justified doubts as to solvency or material payment arrears, BTC may require reasonable advance payments or security for services not yet performed, to the extent this is reasonable in the circumstances.
6. Rights of set-off or retention of the Contracting Partner exist only to the extent permitted by law. Undisputed portions of invoices remain generally due notwithstanding a dispute regarding other items.
§ 6 Duties to Cooperate and Provide Information
1. The Contracting Partner shall provide in due time all information, documents, decisions, approvals, access rights and other cooperation required by BTC for contractual performance.
2. The Contracting Partner is responsible for ensuring that information provided by it is, to the best of its knowledge, accurate, complete and current.
3. BTC may rely on such information unless there are obvious inconsistencies or specific doubts and no further duty of verification has been agreed.
4. If BTC identifies a material error or inconsistency that can foreseeably impair performance, BTC will notify the Contracting Partner and, where necessary, request clarification.
5. Delays and additional effort resulting from missing or late cooperation by the Contracting Partner shall be appropriately taken into account in performance deadlines and remuneration.
6. The Contracting Partner shall inform BTC without undue delay of changes in material circumstances insofar as they are relevant to contractual performance.
§ 7 Performance Deadlines, Delays and Force Majeure
1. Performance periods and dates are binding only if they have been expressly agreed as binding or their binding nature clearly follows from the circumstances.
2. A performance period begins only once the agreed prerequisites for performance, required information and required cooperation are available.
3. Events beyond the reasonable control of the affected party, in particular natural events, war, governmental measures, sanctions, extraordinary disruptions of infrastructure, energy supply, telecommunications or transport, strikes or comparable impediments, shall be dealt with in accordance with the Individual Contract and the applicable law.
4. To the extent legally permissible and provided no fixed date is affected, an affected performance period shall be extended by the duration of the actual impediment plus a reasonable restart period.
5. The affected party shall inform the other party within a reasonable time of any material impediment and its foreseeable effects.
6. If an impediment continues for such a period that the purpose of the contract is materially impaired, statutory and contractual rights to adjustment or termination remain unaffected.
§ 8 Compliance, KYC/UBO, Sanctions and Lawful Business Activity
1. Each party shall comply with the laws and regulations applicable to it in performing the contract.
2. BTC may, to the extent necessary, request information and evidence concerning identity, registry data, beneficial owners, business activity, source of funds, end use, payment routes and other compliance-relevant circumstances.
3. BTC is entitled to suspend the processing of a transaction where there are specific and objectively justified doubts as to its lawfulness or where required KYC, UBO, AML, sanctions or export-control checks have not yet been completed.
4. No party is obliged to take any action that would violate sanctions, export-control rules, anti-money-laundering provisions, official orders or other mandatory law.
5. The Contracting Partner shall not provide BTC with false information, sham structures or circumvention arrangements or require BTC to use them.
6. If a transaction becomes permanently impermissible due to a mandatory legal prohibition, reversal and settlement shall be governed by the Individual Contract and the applicable law.
§ 9 Confidentiality and Trade Secrets
1. The parties shall keep confidential all non-public commercial, technical, organizational and other confidential information of the respective other party.
2. Confidential information may be used only for performance of the relevant contract and may be made accessible only to persons who require it for that purpose and are appropriately bound to confidentiality.
3. The confidentiality obligation does not apply to information demonstrably in the public domain, already lawfully known to the receiving party, independently developed, or lawfully obtained from a third party.
4. Statutory disclosure obligations remain unaffected. To the extent permissible, the other party shall be informed before any mandatory disclosure.
5. Trade secrets shall receive the special protection required by the applicable law. Confidentiality obligations shall continue after termination of the contract to the extent required by their purpose.
6. Access credentials, private keys, seed phrases, PINs and comparable authentication secrets shall neither be requested nor disclosed unless this is strictly necessary for a lawful and expressly agreed purpose.
§ 10 Data Protection
1. The parties shall process personal data exclusively in compliance with the applicable data-protection law.
2. The data-protection role of each party is determined by the actual processing activities and not solely by the designation used in the contract.
3. Where BTC processes personal data exclusively on behalf of and under the instructions of the Contracting Partner, the parties shall, before processing begins, enter into the data-processing agreement required by law or a functionally equivalent agreement.
4. Required arrangements for international data transfers, in particular from the EEA to Georgia, shall be made separately to the extent required by applicable law.
5. Each party shall implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect data processed within its area of responsibility.
6. Statutory duties concerning information, deletion, retention and incident notification remain unaffected.
§ 11 Intellectual Property and Work Products
1. Pre-existing rights, in particular rights in trademarks, software, documents, templates, methods, know-how and other protected rights, remain with the respective rights holder.
2. Rights in work products created individually for the Contracting Partner are governed by the Individual Contract and the applicable law.
3. Unless otherwise agreed, upon full payment the Contracting Partner shall receive the rights of use required for the contractually intended purpose in work products created by BTC specifically for it.
4. General know-how, methods, processes, non-customer-specific templates and independently developed components remain with BTC, subject to any mandatory rights of third parties.
5. The Contracting Partner warrants that it has the necessary rights in materials that it provides to BTC for processing.
6. Rights of third parties remain unaffected.
§ 12 Warranty and Complaints Regarding Performance
1. Whether and to what extent warranty or remedial-performance rights exist is governed by the Individual Contract, the applicable special Part and the applicable law.
2. The Contracting Partner shall notify BTC of recognizable deviations within a reasonable period and describe the complaint in sufficient detail to enable BTC to examine it.
3. Where a deviation attributable to BTC can be remedied, BTC shall generally be given a reasonable opportunity to correct or cure it, unless the applicable law provides for another legal consequence.
4. The form of remedial performance depends on the nature of the service, the significance of the deviation and the statutory requirements.
5. Changes to the work product or goods by the Contracting Partner or third parties may exclude or reduce claims to the extent such changes caused the alleged defect or materially impaired its assessment.
6. Guarantees are assumed only if expressly agreed as such.
§ 13 Liability and Damages
1. BTC is liable for intentional and grossly negligent breaches of duty in accordance with the applicable law. Mandatory statutory liability remains unaffected.
2. In cases of ordinary negligence, BTC is liable only for breach of material contractual obligations and only for direct loss that was typically foreseeable at the time the contract was concluded.
3. To the extent legally permissible, BTC's liability for ordinary negligence is limited in amount: for an individual purchase or project contract, to the net value of the specifically affected order or affected goods; for ongoing service relationships, to the net remuneration that BTC received or was contractually entitled to receive under the affected contractual relationship during the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the loss.
4. In cases of ordinary negligence, indirect loss, consequential loss, production downtime, loss of profit and loss of business opportunities are excluded to the extent permitted by applicable law.
5. Limitations of liability do not apply to the extent they are impermissible in cases of injury to life, body or health, intentional conduct, an expressly assumed guarantee, or other mandatory law.
6. The injured party shall take reasonable measures to mitigate loss. Any contribution by the injured party to the occurrence or increase of the loss shall be taken into account in accordance with the applicable law.
7. B13, C14 and D13 apply additionally to special risks and liability rules for individual types of services.
§ 14 Term and Termination
1. The term, commencement, minimum term, extension and ordinary notice periods are set out in the Individual Contract.
2. The right to terminate for good cause remains unaffected.
3. Where a breach can be remedied and immediate termination is not justified, the breaching party should generally first be granted a reasonable period to remedy the breach.
4. Mandatory or non-waivable termination rights applicable to the contract type actually concerned remain unaffected.
5. Provisions which by their purpose are intended to survive termination, in particular confidentiality, data protection, liability, payment claims, governing law and dispute resolution, shall remain in effect.
6. The special Parts may contain additional termination and wind-down provisions.
§ 15 Assignment, Transfer of Contract and Use of Third Parties
1. Assignment or transfer of material rights or obligations under an Individual Contract requires the consent of the other party unless the applicable law or the Individual Contract provides otherwise.
2. BTC may assign receivables to banks, payment service providers, factoring companies or other financing partners to the extent legally permissible and provided the legitimate interests of the Contracting Partner are not unreasonably impaired.

§ 17 Governing Law and CISG
1. The contractual relationship is governed by Georgian law unless another law has been validly agreed in the Individual Contract and mandatory conflict-of-laws or substantive provisions do not provide otherwise.
2. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) is not excluded generally. Where its requirements for application are met, it applies unless the parties have validly excluded or modified it for the specific contract.
3. A choice of Georgian law does not, by itself, exclude the CISG.
4. Mandatory public-law, property-law, insolvency-law, data-protection-law, transport-law or other provisions of other affected states remain applicable where private international law so provides.
§ 18 Jurisdiction, Language and Final Provisions
1. To the extent legally permissible, the competent courts in Tbilisi, Georgia, shall have jurisdiction over disputes arising out of or in connection with the contractual relationship. BTC remains entitled to bring claims against a Contracting Partner before any other court having jurisdiction, to the extent legally permissible.
2. For the current publication, the German version of these General Terms and Conditions is authoritative. If another language version is later expressly designated as authoritative for an Individual Contract, that agreement shall apply to the relevant contract.
3. Translations are provided for international use. In the event of differences of interpretation, the language version expressly designated as authoritative for the specific contract shall prevail.
4. If any provision is invalid, unenforceable or inapplicable to a particular set of circumstances, the remaining provisions shall remain effective to the extent permitted by applicable law. The statutory provisions shall apply in place of the invalid provision.
5. Failure to exercise a right in an individual case does not constitute a general waiver of that right for future cases.
6. The version of these General Terms and Conditions incorporated into the respective Individual Contract shall be authoritative for that contract.
Part B – Bitcoin Mining and Mining Services
B1 Scope and Classification of Mining Services
1. This Part B applies in addition to Part A to contracts relating to Bitcoin mining, mining capacity, operation or hosting of mining hardware, administrative Mining Services and related services.
2. The Individual Contract determines whether BTC itself owes a mining-specific service, provides only administrative or coordination services, or arranges or coordinates services of a technical operator.
3. The involvement of a data center, hosting provider, mining pool or other technical service provider does not automatically make that provider's terms part of the contract between BTC and the customer.
4. Ownership of hardware, possession, technical operational responsibility, mining capacity and the economic entitlement to mining proceeds are to be assessed separately as a matter of law.
B2 Subject Matter of Contract, Hardware and Mining Capacity
1. The number, type, performance, ownership status, location, allocation and other characteristics of the mining hardware are set out in the Individual Contract.
2. Where the customer owns specific hardware, such ownership is unaffected by the provision of mining, hosting or coordination services unless otherwise expressly and validly agreed.
3. A stated nominal hashrate does not constitute a guarantee that such hashrate will actually be achieved at all times. Technical fluctuations, pool measurements, maintenance and operating conditions must be taken into account.
4. Where only mining capacity and no ownership of specific hardware is owed, no ownership or co-ownership right in hardware used arises unless expressly agreed.
5. Hardware serial numbers, locations or allocations may be recorded in annexes, inventory lists or other technical documentation.
B3 Mining Pool, Wallet and Mining Proceeds
1. Unless otherwise agreed in the Individual Contract, mining proceeds are paid through the mining pool used directly to a customer wallet designated and verified by the customer.
2. BTC shall not routinely intermediate-store, hold in custody or forward third-party mining proceeds through its own wallets.
3. The customer is responsible for the accuracy, security and availability of its wallet address. Changes must be verified through the agreed secure process.
4. BTC does not request private keys or seed phrases for a customer wallet and may not exercise control over them.
5. Mining proceeds arise in accordance with the rules of the Bitcoin network and the pool used. BTC guarantees neither block finds nor any specific amount or frequency of payouts.
6. Pool fees, payout thresholds, payout methods and technical pool conditions may affect the mining proceeds actually credited.
B4 Hashrate, Availability and Downtime
1. Hashrate, technical availability and downtime are assessed in accordance with the Individual Contract and the technical conditions of actual operation.
2. BTC does not guarantee uninterrupted technical availability unless such a guarantee has been expressly assumed.
3. Maintenance, repairs, network or power disruptions, pool outages, internet problems, overheating, firmware work and other technical events may result in downtime.
4. Where technical infrastructure or operation is provided by an independent operator, BTC owes only the services expressly assumed by BTC itself, including, where applicable, administrative coordination, monitoring or communication.
5. Binding service levels or downtime credits apply only if expressly agreed.
6. BTC shall, to the agreed extent, forward material recognizable disruptions to the responsible operator or service provider and coordinate their handling insofar as this is included in the scope of services.
B5 Power Supply, Energy Price and Hosting Costs
1. Energy price, calculation basis, billing period, hosting costs and other technical operating costs are set out in the Individual Contract.
2. Where a fixed energy price is expressly agreed, it generally remains fixed for the agreed period. Ordinary cost increases of an operator do not give BTC an automatic right to increase prices.
3. Consumption-based costs may be billed according to measured kWh values or kWh values allocated on a traceable basis.
4. Advance payments or instalments are permissible where agreed. Variances in consumption or costs may be reconciled in the following billing period.
5. Changes in government charges, mandatory taxes or other costs caused by public authorities shall be treated in accordance with the Individual Contract and the applicable law.
6. Remuneration of BTC for its own administrative or coordination services shall be shown separately from pure energy costs or third-party provider costs where required by the agreed business model.
B6 Hardware Operation, Maintenance, Repairs and Defects
1. Operation, maintenance, repairs and technical responsibilities are governed by the Individual Contract and the actual operator structure.
2. Where a technical operator or manufacturer performs repair or maintenance services, that party remains professionally responsible for its services; BTC owes only its own expressly assumed coordination or service obligations.
3. The customer shall disclose known technical particularities and existing prior damage to its own hardware to the extent relevant to operation.
4. Repairs, spare parts or external technical services may cause separate costs. Such costs may be incurred only in accordance with the agreed approval or budget rules, unless an emergency exists.
5. BTC does not guarantee that defective hardware can be repaired economically or that spare parts will be available.
6. Where BTC itself undertakes technical services, BTC is responsible for their proper performance in accordance with Part A and B13.
B7 Risk, Insurance, Loss and Damage
1. Ownership, possession and allocation of risk relating to mining hardware are to be assessed separately and are governed by the Individual Contract and the property law applicable in each case.
2. Where hardware is owned by the customer, the customer generally bears the risk of loss or damage to the property unless the loss or damage is attributable to BTC or a person whose conduct is attributable to BTC, or unless otherwise agreed.
3. BTC is obliged to procure property, transport or operational insurance only where this has been expressly agreed.
4. In the event of loss or damage, the loss shall be documented without undue delay and, where necessary, claims shall be asserted against the operator, insurer or other responsible third party.
5. Proprietary security rights, rights of retention or realization rights are governed by the law applicable to property located at the hardware's location to the extent that law applies mandatorily.
B8 Remuneration, Billing and Payment
1. Remuneration for mining, hosting, energy, administration and other services is set out in the Individual Contract and shall be treated separately from the customer's mining proceeds.
2. BTC's remuneration claims are fiat-money claims. Direct payment of such claims in Bitcoin or other virtual assets is not contemplated to the extent such payment is impermissible under Georgian law.
3. Lawful VASP conversion routes are permitted where BTC receives exclusively the fiat amount owed.
4. The customer's mining proceeds shall not be set off against or withheld for BTC's remuneration claims unless this has been expressly agreed and is legally permissible.
5. Invoicing, due dates and default are additionally governed by Part A.
6. Billing may use pool data, Energy Reports, consumption data or other traceable technical records as the calculation basis.
B9 Term, Mining Commencement and Termination
1. Where a minimum term has been agreed, for long-term mining or hosting contracts it generally begins on the actual Mining Commencement Date unless the Individual Contract provides otherwise.
2. The Mining Commencement Date is the date on which the contractually allocated mining hardware or mining capacity is actually placed into the agreed mining operation.
3. Delays occurring before mining commences shall be assessed according to their cause and the relevant sphere of responsibility.
4. Ordinary and extraordinary termination rights arise from the Individual Contract, Part A and mandatory law.
5. Upon termination, technical shutdown, pool allocation, hardware access, data handover and other wind-down measures shall be carried out in accordance with B14.
B10 Regulatory, Technical and Fundamental Changes
1. Changes to the Bitcoin protocol, Difficulty, network hashrate, halving, Block Reward, pool rules, the electricity market, regulatory requirements or other framework conditions may affect the economics of mining.
2. Such changes generally do not constitute a breach of guarantee and do not create an automatic right to adjust prices unless an express adjustment mechanism has been agreed.
3. If continued performance becomes impermissible under mandatory law or technically impossible, the parties shall first examine whether a lawful and economically reasonable adjustment is possible.
4. Ordinary mining-market and profitability risks remain with the party to which they are allocated under the Individual Contract.
5. No party is obliged to use an unlawful substitute structure or circumvention solution.
B11 Taxes and Documentation
1. Each party is responsible for its own tax obligations in connection with mining proceeds, hardware, remuneration and other services, unless the applicable law provides otherwise.
2. BTC shall prepare the invoices and documentation owed by it in accordance with the legal requirements applicable to BTC.
3. The customer shall provide required tax, identity or corporate information to the extent necessary for proper billing or statutory documentation.
4. Mining proceeds, fiat remuneration, electricity/hosting costs and other payment flows shall be separated for accounting and documentation purposes.
5. BTC does not owe tax advice to the customer unless such service has been expressly and legally validly agreed.
B12 Customer Obligations, Security and Permitted Use
1. The customer shall use only lawful wallets, payment routes and corporate structures and shall provide all required KYC/compliance information.
2. Wallet addresses and changes to security-relevant information must be verified in accordance with the agreed procedure.
3. The customer shall not transmit private keys, seed phrases or other authentication secrets to BTC unless this is expressly required in an exceptional case and is legally permissible.
4. The customer shall not use Mining Services for unlawful, sanctions-violating or fraudulent purposes.
5. Where the customer owns the hardware, it shall accurately provide the agreed ownership and value information as well as relevant technical data.
B13 Mining-Specific Liability
1. General liability is governed by Part A. This section supplements it with mining-specific risks.
2. BTC is not liable for movements in the Bitcoin price, Difficulty, network hashrate, halving, Block Reward, pool variance or general mining profitability.
3. BTC is not automatically liable for outages of a mining pool, data center or technical service provider operated independently of the customer or BTC; BTC's own duties relating to selection, coordination, information or otherwise remain unaffected.
4. For direct physical damage to customer-owned mining hardware attributable to BTC, liability for ordinary negligence is, to the extent legally permissible, limited to reasonable repair costs or the objective current value, but in no event more than the hardware value agreed or declared in the Individual Contract.
5. Claims for lost mining proceeds or other consequential loss are governed by the general liability provisions of Part A and, in cases of ordinary negligence, are compensable only to the extent provided there.
6. Mandatory statutory liability and liability for intent or gross negligence remain unaffected.
B14 Technical Wind-Down and Hardware After Termination
1. Following termination, pool allocation, customer wallet settings, technical access rights and other ongoing mining configurations shall be terminated or transferred to the agreed extent.
2. Where customer-owned hardware is located at the premises of an independent operator, removal, storage, shipment, collection or continued use shall be coordinated with the operator and in accordance with the Individual Contract.
3. Costs of removal, packaging, transport, storage, customs or other exit measures shall be borne by the party designated for this purpose in the Individual Contract.
4. BTC may not unilaterally realize or retain hardware unless there is a valid contractual and statutory basis for doing so.
5. Customer data and technical documentation shall be handled in accordance with the agreed data-protection and retention rules.
6. Once the agreed exit measures have been completed, BTC has no further monitoring or coordination obligation unless a new engagement exists.
B15 Order of Precedence, Third-Party Terms and Final Provisions
1. Mining Services are governed jointly by the Individual Contract, Part B and Part A.
2. Individually negotiated agreements and express technical specifications take precedence over Part B; Part B takes precedence over Part A.
3. Terms of operators, data centers, pools, manufacturers or other third parties do not become part of the contract between BTC and the customer merely because the respective third party is involved.
4. Where the customer enters directly into a contract with a third-party provider, that provider's terms may apply to that third-party relationship.
5. Mandatory law at the location of the hardware, in particular property, security and insolvency law, remains unaffected.
6. Part B applies exclusively to B2B contracts.
