Open Flux – General Terms of Use of MySolutionConnect
Last updated : 3 February 2025
Article 1 – Preamble
Open Flux (the “Service”), provided by MySolutionConnect, is designed to meet the needs of a wide range of professional users.
In accordance with its duty to inform and advise, MySolutionConnect has made available to the Client a commercial proposal and/or documentation describing the Service, which the Client acknowledges having reviewed. Based on this information, it is the Client’s responsibility to ensure that the Service is suitable for its own needs. To this end, prior to accepting the Contract, the Client may request additional information and/or an additional demonstration of the Service. Failing such a request, the Client acknowledges having been sufficiently informed.
Any specifications or requirements document prepared by the Client shall not be taken into account by MySolutionConnect under the Contract unless expressly validated by MySolutionConnect prior to signature and attached as an annex. Any customization of the Service to meet the Client’s specific needs may only be provided under a separate agreement not governed by these General Terms of Use.
The Client is informed that the implementation services offered by MySolutionConnect are necessary for the proper use of the Service. It is therefore the Client’s responsibility, in light of its needs, to assess whether or not to subscribe to such services.
