Axi Legal · trade name of L. Beute · Chamber of Commerce: [number to follow] · Baarn, the Netherlands · Version June 2026
These general terms apply to all assignments and agreements with Axi Legal. The terms also include the data processing terms in Appendix 1. When Axi Legal processes personal data on behalf of the Client within the meaning of the GDPR while providing the Services, these data processing terms automatically apply as part of the agreement.
'Axi Legal': the trade name of L. Beute, a sole proprietorship based in Baarn. 'Client': the legal entity or natural person entering into an agreement with Axi Legal. 'Services': AI-supported contract analysis, practical legal support and related services. 'Review': the analysis of one document up to the maximum agreed number of pages.
These general terms apply to all offers, assignments and agreements between Axi Legal and the Client. Deviations are only valid if agreed in writing.
Axi Legal does not perform work that may only be carried out by a lawyer or civil-law notary. The services are based on a best-effort obligation, not an obligation to achieve a specific result. Axi Legal does not guarantee that every risk is fully identified in each individual case. The quality of the analysis depends in part on the completeness and accuracy of the documents and context provided by the Client.
One review concerns the analysis of one standalone document within the agreed page limit. A maximum of 25 pages applies to the Contract Risk Scan. A maximum of 25 pages per request applies to Essentials. A maximum of 25 pages per request applies to Business. Appendices, general terms, data processing agreements, schedules and side letters count towards this, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Documents that exceed the page limit or fall outside the agreed scope are priced separately by arrangement. Telephone consultation is only included if this is explicitly stated in the chosen package.
The stated turnaround times (Essentials 48 hours, Business 24 hours, on business days) apply as a best-effort obligation when documents and context are delivered on time and in full. Express service is available for €150 excl. VAT per case (Business) or on a quote basis (Essentials).
All prices are exclusive of VAT, unless otherwise stated. Subscriptions are invoiced monthly in advance. Payment must be made within 14 days of the invoice date. Axi Legal reserves the right to adjust prices, with a notice period of at least one calendar month. For existing clients, the new price applies from the next renewal date after the notice period has expired.
Subscriptions can be cancelled monthly, effective at the end of the current calendar month. Cancellation must be made in writing (by email). In the event of late cancellation, the subscription continues for one more calendar month.
The liability of Axi Legal is, to the extent permitted by law, limited to the amount the Client paid to Axi Legal in the three months preceding the event causing the damage. Axi Legal is not liable for indirect damage, consequential damage, loss of revenue, loss of profit, missed savings, loss of data or business interruption, unless there is intent or deliberate recklessness on the part of Axi Legal. This limitation applies regardless of the basis of the claim, to the extent permitted by law.
The Client warrants that they are authorised to share the documents provided with Axi Legal, that the information provided is complete and accurate, and that they inform Axi Legal of relevant context in good time. The Client is responsible for decisions made on the basis of Axi Legal's analyses.
Axi Legal treats all client documents and information confidentially. Insofar as AI tools are used, they are configured so that client documents are not used for public model training. Data processing agreements are concluded with relevant sub-processors. On request, Axi Legal makes a DPA available.
Reviews are intended for regular commercial agreements. Bulk uploads, due-diligence dumps or use outside the agreed scope are not covered by the subscription and are priced separately by arrangement. Axi Legal reserves the right to suspend the subscription in the event of misuse.
Dutch law applies to all agreements with Axi Legal. Disputes are preferably resolved by mutual consultation. If that is not possible, disputes are submitted to the competent court in the Midden-Nederland district.
These general terms are also available in Dutch. This English version is a translation for convenience. In case of conflict between the Dutch and English version, the Dutch version prevails.
1. Axi Legal processes personal data as described in the Axi Legal privacy statement.
2. Insofar as Axi Legal processes personal data on behalf of the Client within the meaning of the GDPR while providing the Services, the data processing terms set out in Appendix 1 to these general terms apply.
3. By placing an order, giving an assignment, making a payment or accepting these general terms, the Client also accepts the data processing terms in Appendix 1.
4. The Client confirms that the Client is authorised to share the documents provided and the data they contain with Axi Legal.
5. The Client will not provide unnecessary special categories of personal data or criminal personal data to Axi Legal, unless this is strictly necessary for performing the assignment and the Client has a valid legal basis for doing so.
Appendix 1
These data processing terms form part of the general terms of Axi Legal and apply insofar as Axi Legal processes personal data on behalf of the Client within the meaning of the GDPR while providing the Services.
The Client is the data controller. Axi Legal is the processor insofar as it processes personal data on behalf of the Client. Axi Legal processes personal data solely on the basis of written instructions from the Client, including these terms and the assignment.
The processing takes place for the purpose of contract analysis, risk scanning, reporting and the communication needed to perform the assignment.
Contact details, names, job titles, signatures, contract data and other business data that appear in the documents and context provided by the Client.
Employees, directors, representatives, contracting parties, suppliers, customers and freelancers of the Client or of parties involved in the contract.
Axi Legal processes personal data solely in accordance with the Client's instructions, unless a legal obligation requires otherwise. Axi Legal informs the Client if, in its opinion, an instruction conflicts with the GDPR.
Axi Legal treats all personal data confidentially and ensures that persons who have access to the data are bound by confidentiality.
Axi Legal takes appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss or unlawful processing, in line with Article 32 of the GDPR. These measures constitute a best-effort obligation and not an absolute guarantee.
Insofar as Axi Legal uses AI tools, they are configured so that client documents are not used for public AI model training. AI is used solely in a supporting role; every analysis is reviewed by a legal professional.
Axi Legal may engage sub-processors for hosting, form processing, email, AI support, payment and storage. Data processing agreements are concluded with relevant sub-processors where applicable. A current sub-processor list is available on request.
Axi Legal does not currently claim full European data residency, unless this has been separately confirmed based on the chosen tool configuration. For transfers outside the EEA, appropriate safeguards are applied where applicable.
Axi Legal informs the Client without undue delay after becoming aware of a personal data breach affecting the Client, with the information reasonably needed to meet its own obligations.
Axi Legal provides, as far as reasonably possible, assistance to the Client in handling requests from data subjects exercising their rights under the GDPR.
Contract documents are deleted no later than 30 days after delivery, unless longer retention is necessary due to a legal obligation, an ongoing dispute, evidential position or written agreement. Reports are kept with a maximum retention period of 3 months after delivery, unless longer retention is necessary due to a legal obligation, dispute or written agreement. Invoices and financial records are kept in accordance with statutory retention obligations.
On reasonable request, Axi Legal makes available to the Client the information needed to demonstrate compliance with these data processing terms, taking into account the nature of the processing and the scale of the services.
The liability provision from the general terms applies to these data processing terms. In the event of a conflict between this appendix and the general terms, this appendix prevails solely for the subject of data processing.
