What's required

  • Definitie vertrouwelijke informatie / Definition of Confidential Information

    Wet bescherming bedrijfsgeheimen (Stb. 2018, 369); Richtlijn (EU) 2016/943

  • Boetebeding / Penalty Clause

    BW art. 6:91-6:94

  • Electronic Signatures / Elektronische handtekening

    Verordening (EU) 910/2014 (eIDAS); BW art. 3:15a

  • GDPR Data Processing Notice

What's prohibited

  • Disproportionate penalty clause without judicial moderation right

    Under Article 6:94 BW, a court may moderate a contractual penalty if equity manifestly requires it. Any clause attempting to exclude the court's power of moderation may be considered contrary to good faith and fair dealing (redelijkheid en billijkheid, art. 6:248 lid 2 BW) and is likely unenforceable.

  • Blanket waiver of all legal remedies

    Under Dutch law, contractual provisions that are unreasonable or contrary to public policy (openbare orde) or good morals (goede zeden) are void (art. 3:40 BW). A blanket waiver of all rights and remedies would be unenforceable.
