Liability

With the website www.because.eu (hereinafter referred to as "the site"), the King Baudouin Foundation (hereinafter referred to as "the KBF") pursues an objective of general interest, namely to provide the public with transparent information on associations and foundations in Belgium, without any commercial purpose.

Some of the information on the site comes from third parties. The organisation concerned may consult and modify these data, with the exception of financial data. It may also change any information it enters itself at any time. On the site, a clear distinction is made between information from official sources and information modified by the organisation itself. The KBF builds on a relationship of trust with the organisations and assumes that the data provided by the organisations themselves are the most reliable. However, some data may be incomplete, incorrect or outdated. The KBF cannot be held responsible for this. Nor can the KBF be held liable for direct or indirect damage arising from the use and downloading of files from the site.

The site contains links to sites of third parties or organisations. The KBS has no control over the nature, completeness or accuracy of the information on these sites. Nor can it be held responsible for the content of sites to which its own site links. The KBF has no control over the persons linking to the Because site. Therefore, the presence of such a link on another site does not imply that the KBF approves or recommends the site in question.
