NablaFlow is provided by:
NablaFlow AS - Sverdrups gate 27, 4007 Stavanger, Norway
Owner contact email: lo@nablaflow.io
NablaFlow AS offers the service of automated flow simulations, delivered via browser and ran on AWS and deployed through cloud/web based platform named NablaCore. NablaCore works as platform for AeroCloud (aerocloud.nablaflow.io) and ArchiWind (archiwind.nablaflow.io)
Ordering Process: The ordering process is the following one: you create your account, you upload the 3D model/s to the APP, you enter the simulation parameters, you choose the type of simulation, you check the project summary and the order options, you choose the payment manner and confirm the order and execute the payment. The order is placed when the payment has been executed. No modification can be made once the payment is executed. By placing your order, you are purchasing a digital wind tunnel test and you accept a binding Service Agreement between the Parties.
Term of delivery: NablaFlow AS, through ArchiWind and AeroCloud, will deliver the report and the simulation data within a reasonable time. The benchmark for this reasonable time will be the indicative period of three (3) weeks. The report (in pdf-file) will be downloadable from the webpage. From then on the simulation data will be available on the Site during thirty (30) calendar days. The average time required to analyze the 3D-model depends on the simulation type that you choose (Basic/Pro), the analysis is normally done within 48hours, but this is merely an indication by which NablaFlow AS is not bound. Also, the timing given by NablaFlow AS, orally or written, before or during the execution of the Service, is merely an indication by which NablaFlow AS is not bound, unless stated otherwise. In case the delivery takes longer due to major force, a small error, such as a technical one, of NablaFlow AS or in case that the delivery is only minimally delayed, NablaFlow AS cannot be held liable. In other situations of delay, NablaFlow AS’s liability will be maximum the amount NablaFlow AS received from the client for the project which endures the delay. The actual delivery time is determined by a number of circumstances, for example (but not limited to) the working conditions applicable at the time the agreement is concluded and the size and difficulty of your 3D-model.
Accuracy level and liability: NablaCore provides a service which consists of different types of CFD (computational fluid dynamic) simulations and does not substitute a ‘physical wind tunnel test’, especially in conditions were critical loads have to be estimated.
Data usage and liability: NablaFlow AS is not responsible for the correctness, accuracy and integrity of the data inserted in the simulation. NablaFlow is not responsible for the accuracy of the 3D-model used. NablaFlow AS is not liable for the material-, immaterial damages or damages directly or indirectly in relation to your use or misuse of the Service. NablaFlow AS will, if held liable, only compensate at a maximum rate of 200% of the price of the simulation that was used and which caused that particular damage. Claims must be made within six (6) months from the time the damage occurred.

Without prejudice to the above, the nullity, invalidity or impossibility to enforce a particular provision of these Terms shall not nullify the entire Agreement, unless the severed provisions are essential to the Agreement, or of such importance that the parties would not have entered into the contract if they had known that the provision would not be valid, or in cases where the remaining provisions would translate into an unacceptable hardship on any of the parties.
These Terms are governed by the law of the place where the Owner is based, as disclosed in the relevant section of this document, without regard to conflict of laws principles.
