Plans and agreements
These general terms and conditions apply to every agreement, of whatever nature, that arises between careerfully and you, the client. The set of documents that further elaborate the assignment in detail form an integral part of the general terms and conditions. The general terms and conditions apply from the first contact and the resulting quotation.
Only agreements or arrangements made between Ana López or an authorized third party appointed by her and the client are binding with regard to careerfully. careerfully is under no circumstances bound by an agreement entered between the client and an unauthorized third party.
Between quotation and order
At the request of the future client, we prepare an individual quotation with an explanation of the requested services and the rates and prices applied. Our quotations for carrying out the requested services are always drawn up completely tailored made for you, the client.
Our quotations are only valid with regard to the person(s) to whom the quotation is addressed. A quotation has a validity period as stated on the quotation itself, or in the absence of this, a validity period of thirty (30) calendar days after the date it was sent.
Confirmation by email or other means of written communication means acceptance of the quotation. An acceptance by electronic means of communication or verbally is equally valid.
Changes to the original service, such as additional work, are only valid if the client and careerfully jointly decide to do so. As a client, you understand and accept that these changes may have a possible impact on the price and time frame. The consequences of these changes are entirely at the expense of the client.
The client has the option to revoke their acceptance of the assignment at any time, but this will not affect their original payment obligations and the payment obligation for additional work already carried out.
About the execution of a service
Working with careerfully means relying on years of professional experience and extensive knowledge. Every service will be completed to a high quality. However, every service always concerns a best-efforts obligation, whereby careerfully does not guarantee the success and success of the service, nor the extent to which the service contributes to the goal set by the client.
careerfully has the creative and technical freedom to carry out the assignment according to its own ability and insight, in accordance with the original assignment or quotation. careerfully can call on the services of specialized third parties if necessary for the proper execution of the assignment. careerfully may appoint these third parties at its own discretion.
Prompt cooperation from the client is necessary to successfully complete an assignment; this means taking all reasonably necessary actions required for the proper execution of the service agreed. The client understands and accepts that a lack of cooperation may have consequences for the proposed timing and costs. Any consequences of this will be fully borne by the client.
If necessary, the elaboration of an assignment can be divided into sub-assignments, each of which is carried out within the agreed time frame. The execution of a subsequent sub-assignment can be made dependent on explicit and written approval from the client regarding the previously completed sub-assignment. We will always indicate the term for such approval upon delivery. Approval of the partial assignment will be presumed if the client does not respond in time. The implementation of late comments is always considered additional work.
Our rates and payment methods
Our rates and prices are always exclusive of VAT and other additional charges, unless stated otherwise. Our rates and prices include all costs necessary for the proper execution of the service, unless expressly stated otherwise.
careerfully will invoice at expressly specified times. If the client does not agree with the received invoice, you are expected to protest it quickly and substantiated, no later than seven (7) calendar days after the invoice date. This does not affect any (interim) payment obligations.
Our invoices are payable in advance for the total value of the service rendered for individuals and entrepreneurs understood as power sessions, plans and workshops. Invoices for corporate entities are payable within thirty (30) calendar days from the invoice date, unless otherwise agreed. In the event of failure to pay on the due date, late payment interest will be charged automatically and without prior notice of default, amounting to the statutory interest rate for late payment in commercial transactions on an annual basis. As soon as we have sent the first notice of default, a fixed compensation amounting to 9.5% of the invoice amount will also be due, with an absolute minimum of 50 EUR. This does not affect the right to request compensation for further costs associated with non-payment. careerfully reserves the right to cancel or postpone any services should the invoice hasn’t been paid prior to the first session.

The unauthorized use will therefore give rise to a new invoicing at the standard rate applied plus a surcharge of 50%, for each identified violation separately. The client is also responsible for any established unauthorized use by third parties. If you have any questions regarding authorized or unauthorized use, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Term and Termination
Both Parties can terminate the service agreed unilaterally if one of them is of the opinion that the execution of the service can no longer take place in accordance with the confirmed quotation or subsequent additional service specification.
