We have no control over the contents of those websites or resources, and accept no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them.
Accessibility statement
Many Internet users with disabilities find web sites difficult or even impossible to use simply because of the way they are designed. We are working hard to provide access to information that is available to all our consumers, and this goes for the website, too. We are aware of the types of adaptive technology used by people with disabilities and are redesigning pages across our portfolio of websites to ensure compatibility with as many of these systems as possible. Changes include keeping text clear, formatting layouts and tables, and making sure links adequately describe where they go (‘click here’ does not mean much in isolation).
Jurisdiction and applicable law
The Dutch courts will have exclusive jurisdiction over any claim arising from, or related to, a visit to our website, although we retain the right to bring proceedings against you for breach of these terms of use in your country of residence or any other relevant country. These terms of use and all disputes under or in relation to them or your use of our website are governed by Dutch law.
Variations
UOS may revise these terms of use at any time by amending this page. You are expected to check this page from time to time to take notice of any changes we made, as they are binding on you. Some of the provisions contained in these terms of use may also be superseded by provisions or notices published elsewhere on our website.
