18.1. Should one or more clauses of these general terms and conditions be declared null or
void, the other clauses will continue to apply. The nullity or inapplicability, for any reason
whatsoever, of one of the clauses of these general terms and conditions shall not affect the
validity of the other clauses. 18.2. The fact that VDK does not avail itself at a given time
of a clause of the general terms and conditions cannot be interpreted by the Customer as a
waiver by VDK to avail itself subsequently of this clause or of any other provision of these
general conditions.
19. Jurisdiction and applicable law
19.1. These general terms and conditions and their possible modifications, as well as the
relationship between the Buyer, the Seller and VDK, shall be governed by and interpreted
in accordance with Belgian law. This shall also apply to any dispute or claim, including
any of a non-contractual nature arising from these general terms and conditions or from
relations between Buyer, Seller and VDK and in connection with them. 19.2. In the event of
a dispute or claim of whatever nature, relating in particular to the interpretation or execution
of these general terms and conditions, and including a dispute or claim of a non-contractual
nature arising from these general conditions, the sole competent courts shall be the French-
speaking courts within the legal jurisdiction of Brussels.
