3. Price and fee

As consideration for access to the GapPortal, the CUSTOMER will pay a subscription fee, invoiced at the agreed-upon rates, in advance on a yearly basis.

Unless the subscription is verbally canceled at least 30 days before renewal, each subscription is automatically renewed for one year at a time.

Fees for courses and consulting services are invoiced at agreed rates. Fixed-price packages are invoiced in advance.

All prices are adjusted annually according to the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Subscription prices are calculated based on the number of employees and are adjusted annually upon renewal. Price increases beyond the Consumer Price Index will be announced 60 days before the subscription renewal.

For package solutions based on the number of hours, the number of hours constitutes the maximum delivery from GAP-NO related to the package solution. Unused hours cannot be offset against the agreed fee or redeemed for other performance from GAP-NO.

All invoices and subscriptions can be charged a fee per invoice, and are due for payment with a 10-day payment deadline. In the event of payment after the due date, interest will be calculated in accordance with the Interest on Overdue Payments Act.

In case of non-payment, GAP-NO has the right to stop the work, and GAP-DK has the right to suspend the user rights to GapPortalen until payment is received.

This shall result in liability for damages, cf. section 7, and GAP-DK and GAP-NO shall have the right to take legal action.

GAP-DK and GAP-NO retain all rights to the GapPortal, its ideas, inventions, and the material they have prepared, and have the right to use the GapPortal, ideas, inventions, know-how, and material for completing assignments for other clients.

Upon completion of the assignment, GAP-DK and GAP-NO are obligated, upon request, to return all materials received from the CLIENT. Correspondingly, GAP-DK and GAP-NO shall provide all documentation, guides, and the like that have been specifically prepared for the purpose of fulfilling the assignment for the CLIENT.

The customer is responsible for securing their own intellectual property rights.

This applies to both direct and indirect damages, as well as business and financial losses incurred by the CUSTOMER in connection with the use of GAP-DK and/or GAP-NO's products or services.

It is thus the CUSTOMER's own responsibility how information made available by GAP-DK and/or GAP-NO is used.

If a party is prevented from fulfilling its obligations under the AGREEMENT due to extraordinary circumstances that the PARTIES could not have foreseen (force majeure), this shall not be considered a breach. The other party shall in such cases be entitled to terminate the AGREEMENT if the impediment causes a significant delay in the performance of the prevented party.

13. GDPR Basic Course — Conditions for Digital Content

This section applies to the purchase of GDPR Basic Course with Diploma delivered via kurs.personvernpraktikerne.no, and supplements the other provisions in these terms and conditions of sale and delivery.

Digital content and the right of withdrawal

The course is digital content delivered over the internet. According to the Consumer Contracts Act, Section 22, letter b, the right of withdrawal is lost at the moment the delivery of the digital content begins, provided that the CUSTOMER has given explicit consent to this in advance and confirmed that they understand that the Consumer Contracts Act then does not apply. Such confirmation is obtained at the time of purchase.

If delivery has not begun, the ordinary right of withdrawal of 14 days from the date of purchase applies.

Payment model and access

B2C - Individuals: The course is purchased as a one-time purchase per participant. The price provides twelve (12) months of access to the course content from the date of purchase.

B2B — Businesses: Volume licenses are offered for groups. Price and scope will be agreed upon in writing and will be stated in the order confirmation.

Renewal: After the twelve-month access period has expired, the CUSTOMER may renew access for 50% of the current list price. Renewal is optional and does not occur automatically.

Diplomacy and validity

Upon completion of the course and passing the final test, a digital diploma will be issued. The diploma documents that the course was completed on the date of issue. The diploma has no formal expiration date, but GAP-NO recommends that knowledge be updated after twelve (12) months, as regulations and best practices in data protection change over time.

Claims and Technical Defects

If the CUSTOMER experiences technical errors that prevent access to the course content, this should be reported to GAP-NO at hei@personvernpraktikerne.no without undue delay. GAP-NO will within a reasonable time rectify the situation or provide compensatory access.
