Password

An individual and specific password has been granted to each registered user of this site, who is personally responsible for the use of this password. This password must not be given to or used by any other person even on a temporary basis. Any adventitious misuse should be reported immediately to the ECPI Secretariat.

Jurisdiction

This site is administered by the European Council for Plasticisers and Intermediates (ECPI), from Brussels, Belgium. As a consequence, Belgium law is the one applicable under the principles governing International Private Law on the choice of law. Belgium law means: all laws applicable in Belgium, as complemented whenever applicable by European law and International law.

This choice of applicable law does not exclude the application of other laws, from other jurisdictions in a given country, or applicable to certain actions (eg competition law).

If the site is used by the extranet participants from other locations than Belgium, then each extranet participant is responsible for compliance with applicable law. By downloading or using the content or any features from this site, extranet participants are responsible for doing so, under the laws applicable to the jurisdiction from which they do so.

Competition compliance

Whenever a Cefic Sector Group like ECPI, organises an activity, there is the potential that problems actionable under competition may arise. It should be clear that meetings or other activities, like participating into this site, do not insulate the activity from attack under competition law. Therefore, network participants must be aware that competition law applies to all activities relating to this site.
ECPI serves a legitimate and useful purpose and may legally engage in a wide variety of activities which serve the industry, as long as these do not violate antitrust laws.

Considerations of the various competition laws that may possibly apply require that ECPI, its Members and the extranet participants refrain from any activities which might possibly be considered as unlawful or even may given the appearance of violation and may invite suspicion or trigger investigations from the enforcement authorities.

Trade marks

All trade marks included in this site are subject to proprietary rights. No rights are granted. The Cefic and Responsible Care logos are registered trade marks which belong to Cefic in Europe.
