ARTICLE 1 - SCOPE OF APPLICATION
These GTC apply to the contractual relations between TVPAINT and the Customer. The fact of placing an order for a Software application or a Service offered by TVPAINT implies the Customer's full and unconditional acceptance of these GTC.

Therefore, in the absence of express acceptance, any contrary condition established by the Customer will be unenforceable against TVPAINT, whatever the time when TVPAINT is informed of it.
The fact that TVPAINT does not avail itself of any of these GTC at a given time cannot be construed subsequently as a waiver of any of the said conditions. Likewise, the nullity of any of the clauses of these GTC will not affect the validity of the other clauses.
Moreover, TVPAINT reserves the right to perform any modifications or improvements of these GTC and of any Software or Service it deems necessary, at any time and without prior notice, without the Customer being entitled to invoke any damages.
