1. INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL USE

Authorized Users may communicate and interact with other Authorized Users through the Platform. The communication may take place internally within their own organization or externally with Authorized Users from other companies.

The Company is a direct customer of Loopfront and is represented by the Administrator. The Administrator may freely choose whether the Platform only shall be used internally as a mapping -and interaction tool upon the use of an Internal Listings within its own company organization, or whether the Platform also shall be used externally through the use of an Advertisement.

By using the Platform externally, third parties within the market of circular economy (for example architects, contractors, construction consultants and industrial-, public-, and private organizations) are given the opportunity to view, reserve and acquire the Materials.

These Terms of Use apply to the use of the Platform both internally and externally, however certain provisions only apply to external use and Advertisements.

By changing the relevant settings in the Customer Account, the Administrator may choose to protect the Company against third parties being able to see the Company’s Materials and/or the Company’s customer relationship with Loopfront from being used in connection with Loopfront’s marketing.

2. CONTENT OF THE SERVICE

The content of the Platform is partly controlled through Authorized Users uploading information about materials to the Platform. For example, this may include information regarding furnishings, fixtures and various building materials that are reusable or that are left over from building projects, demolition of buildings/facilities etc. (the "Materials").

Information about the Materials may be shared:
(i) externally in an advertisement ("Advertisement") for the purpose of carrying out an external purchase and sale of the Materials; or

(ii) internally between Authorized Users in the Company through an internal listing ("Internal Listing") for the purpose of mapping the Materials and facilitating the reuse of the Materials internally within the Company.

Loopfront or Loopfront's partners supplement information about the Materials with technical information about the Materials, EPDs (Environmental Product Declaration) and manufacturer information etc. ("Technical Information").

The platform also contains information and reports on the companies' financial savings and environmental benefits, such as cuts in CO2 emission and construction waste ("Reports").

3. OWNERSHIP AND THE RIGHT TO USE THE CONTENT OF THE PLATFORM

3.1 The Materials and Information about Price

All information regarding the Materials belongs to either (i) the Authorized User, or (ii) the Company and/or a third party that the Company represents and/or has a contractual relationship with.

Upon completing a transaction through the Platform, cf. section 4.3, the ownership rights to the Materials and associated information about the Materials is also transferred.

When uploading information about the Materials that are to be shared externally in an Advertisement, you must, to the best of your ability, state the real market price of the Materials (taking into consideration normal wear and tear), as well as real prices for disassembly, shipping, transport, and storage. The prices shall be stated exclusive of VAT, but VAT shall be made visible in a separate field.

The price information may be used by Loopfront when calculating savings from reusing rather than buying new materials. If you are unsure of what price to expect for the Materials, disassembly, shipping, transport, storage etc., you shall leave the relevant price field empty.

If the stated price is not real, Loopfront has the right to remove the Advertisement.

3.2 Other content of the Platform

All other content beyond what is mentioned in section 3.1 that you are granted access to, been shown or have had demonstrated through the Platform is exclusively owned by Loopfront, including but not limited to all Technical Information, the mapping tool and Reports.

As an Authorized User, you are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable and limited right to use the content of the Platform in accordance with the Terms of Use. No other rights are granted or transferred to the Platform and its content beyond what is expressly stated in the Terms of Use.

If an Advertisement or Internal Listing is deleted and removed from the Platform, the Materials listed in the relevant Advertisement or Internal Listing will not be included in the Reports prepared by Loopfront.

4. GUIDELINES FOR USING THE SERVICE

4.1 Customer Account, User Account and Administrator

To use the Platform, a Customer Account must be created. A Customer Account may only be created on behalf of a business/company. In connection with testing new or amended features in the Platform, Loopfront may offer a Customer Account for free or at a discounted price for a limited time period. A Customer Account contains the features included in the selected Subscription Plan.

A Customer Account must be set up by a Customer Account-administrator ("Administrator") designated by the Company or another Administrator. The Administrator may add Authorized Users to the Company's Customer Account. The Administrator identifies new Authorized Users by adding the email addresses of each Authorized User. The Authorized User must be over 18 years of age to use the Platform. The access rights and settings of a User Account are determined by the Administrator.

The Administrator is responsible for the management of the Customer Account.

The Administrator is responsible for adding or removing Authorized Users connected to the Customer Account.
The Administrator may not access the User Account of any other Authorized Users or Administrators if they have not shared this with the Administrator directly. The Administrator may access activity logs in connection with the Customer Account, including a log of user activity.

Authorized Users may only view the Materials they have been granted access to. Access to the Materials is determined based on the role the Administrator has assigned to the Authorized User. As a default setting, new Authorized Users are granted access to all Materials uploaded to the Platform by Authorized Users from the same Company-organization as the new Authorized User. The Administrator from a Company controls whether external Authorized Users shall have access to Company’s Materials, cf. section 1 and 2.

The Authorized Users are jointly and severally responsible to ensure that the information uploaded and registered on the Platform associated with the Customer Account and User Accounts is complete, correct and up to date. The Authorized Users are responsible for having access to the email address used in connection with the registration of a User Account.

5. PRICING OF THE SERVICE

The Administrator shall ensure the payment of remuneration for use of the Service on behalf of the Company, in line with the applicable Subscription Plan.
