Terms Part D – B2B Cooperations, Educational Partnerships, Consulting, Training, Freelancers & Projects
B2B cooperations, educational and university partnerships, international cooperations, consulting, training, freelancer and project services
Preliminary note
These Special Terms and Conditions (“Part D”) supplement the Master Terms of Asghar Consultants e.K. for B2B cooperations, educational and university partnerships, international cooperations, consulting, corporate, organizational and project consulting, training, freelancer and project services. They apply only to the extent that they have been validly incorporated into the respective contract. Specific cooperation, project or service agreements may contain supplementary or deviating provisions. Mandatory statutory provisions remain unaffected.
D.1 Scope
These Special Terms and Conditions apply to business services and cooperations between AsgCon and companies, organizations, educational institutions, universities, public or other institutional partners, provided a B2B contractual relationship exists. They cover in particular consulting, corporate, organizational and project consulting, cooperations, educational and university partnerships, training, qualification, freelancer and project services and related support services.
D.2 B2B Cooperations and Partnerships
AsgCon may agree different forms of collaboration with business partners, in particular sales, recruiting, education, technology, project, network or other cooperation models. Consulting and support services may concern in particular strategic, organizational, commercial, operational, international, personnel-related, education-related, technical or project-related questions. Scope, roles, responsibilities, remuneration, territories, term and other conditions result from the respective cooperation agreement or individual order.
D.3 Educational and University Partnerships
Educational and university partnerships may include in particular joint educational offerings, language and qualification programs, examination and preparation concepts, academic cooperations, consulting services, joint events or other educational projects. The specific allocation of tasks, admission requirements, participant administration, examination organization, use of brands and financing are agreed individually. A general presentation of a partnership does not, without express agreement, give rise to any entitlement to a particular educational or examination offering.
D.4 International Cooperations
International cooperations may include services and projects in different countries and legal systems. The contracting parties determine individually, to the extent necessary, responsibilities for local partners, contacts with authorities, participants or candidates, documentation, financing, data protection, compliance and operational implementation. Mandatory statutory provisions of the respectively applicable law remain unaffected.
D.5 Freelancer and Project Services
AsgCon may deploy freelancers, self-employed professionals, external specialists or project staff for agreed tasks, or arrange or coordinate corresponding services. Where consulting, training, coaching or other support services are the subject of a B2B order, their specific scope is governed by the respective individual contract, offer or project order. The specific contractual relationship with the freelancers or external professionals deployed is governed by the respective contract model.
D.6 Project Services and Project Organization
Project services are provided in accordance with the agreed project scope, schedule, milestones and responsibilities. Project organization, communication channels, reporting, acceptances and handovers may be regulated in a project plan or individual order. Delays caused by lack of cooperation, changes, third-party providers or other circumstances outside AsgCon’s sphere of influence may lead to an adjustment of the schedule.
D.7 Change Requests
Changes or extensions to the agreed scope of services may be treated as a Change Request. AsgCon may communicate the effects on effort, costs, deadlines and resources before implementation. A change is deemed commissioned once it has been approved in accordance with the agreed procedure. Statutory rights and expressly agreed change mechanisms remain unaffected.
D.8 Remuneration and Invoicing
Remuneration, daily rates, flat fees, project budgets, success-based fees, commissions, milestone payments or other billing models are agreed individually. Travel, third-party, examination, license, material or other incidental costs may be remunerated separately if this has been agreed. Invoicing and due dates are governed by the respective contract or offer.
D.9 Duties to Cooperate
The Client provides the information, access, contact persons, documents and decisions required for performance in good time. Delays or additional effort due to missing, late or incorrect cooperation may lead to a reasonable adjustment of the schedule and, to the extent agreed and legally permissible, of the remuneration.
D.10 Platforms, Systems and Infrastructure
For certain projects, platforms, portals, learning systems, cloud services, communication systems or other technical infrastructure may be used. Responsibilities for provision, administration, access credentials, maintenance, data security and costs are agreed on a project basis. Where third-party systems are used, their own terms of use may apply.
D.11 Participant, Candidate and Customer Data
Personal data of participants, candidates, employees or other data subjects is processed only to the extent permissible in each case. The contracting parties determine, to the extent necessary, responsibilities, legal bases, transfers and technical and organizational measures. Where processing on behalf takes place, a data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR is concluded, to the extent necessary. Special statutory provisions, in particular in the field of employment placement or funded educational services, remain unaffected.
D.12 Confidentiality
The contracting parties treat confidential information of the other party as confidential and use it only for the agreed purpose. Non-public business, financial, customer, candidate, project, technology and contract information is deemed confidential in particular. The confidentiality obligation does not apply to information that is publicly known, was lawfully obtained from third parties or must be disclosed due to statutory or official obligations. After the end of the contract, confidentiality obligations continue to exist to the extent required by the nature of the information or by agreement.
D.13 Intellectual Property and Work Results
Rights in existing materials, methods, templates, software, concepts, trademarks, know-how and other pre-existing components remain with the respective rights holder. Rights in individually created work results are granted only to the extent agreed in the respective contract. Any further transfer or granting of rights of use requires an express agreement.
D.14 Trademarks, Logos and Public Communication
The use of names, trademarks, logos, images or other identifiers of the other contracting party is permitted only with corresponding authorization. Public announcements about a cooperation, use as a reference or publication of project information require, unless otherwise agreed, the prior coordination of the contracting parties. Statutory disclosure obligations remain unaffected.
D.15 Subcontractors and Partners
AsgCon may use suitable employees, freelance professionals, subcontractors or other service partners for the provision of services, provided this corresponds to the purpose of the contract and no conflicting agreement exists. Where personal data or confidential information is concerned, the applicable statutory and contractual requirements are observed. A further duty to obtain consent may be agreed individually.
D.16 Term, Termination and Project Completion
The term, ordinary and extraordinary termination and the consequences of termination are governed by the respective contract and the statutory provisions. For project contracts, milestones, consequences of termination, invoicing of services already rendered and handover obligations may be regulated individually. After the end of the contract, outstanding handover, invoicing, data protection and confidentiality obligations must be properly completed.
D.17 No Entitlement to Follow-Up Orders
The performance of a cooperation, a project or an individual service does not give rise to any entitlement to further orders, extensions or follow-up projects unless this has been expressly agreed. The same applies to the continuation of collaboration after the expiry of an agreed contract term.
D.18 Relationship to the Master Terms
These Special Terms and Conditions supplement the Master Terms of Asghar Consultants e.K. The following order of precedence applies to the respective B2B, cooperation, consulting, training, freelancer or project order: 1. mandatory statutory law, 2. individually negotiated agreements, 3. individual contract, cooperation, project or individual order, 4. expressly incorporated Special Terms and Conditions Part D, 5. Master Terms. To the extent that the Master Terms contain no special provision for the specific order, they continue to apply in a supplementary manner.
Partner neutrality
These terms deliberately do not name any individual cooperation partners, universities, companies or international organizations. Specific partner relationships and their rights and obligations are regulated in the respective individual contracts, cooperation agreements or project orders.
Legal incorporation
Part D is a component of the modular AsgCon terms and conditions system. It does not replace an individual cooperation agreement, a project contract, an SLA, a data protection agreement or a specific service description. In the case of regulated activities and mandatory statutory requirements, these take precedence.
