Terms of use

Last updated: 13 November 2026. This is a translation; if the versions differ, the Dutch version prevails.

1. Who and what

SpecsMapper is a web app of VDLIntelligence, the Netherlands (hereinafter: we). These terms apply to everyone who creates an account or uses the app (hereinafter: you). SpecsMapper is for businesses and organisations only. You use the app for business purposes, not as a consumer.

2. Account

• You create one account for your company, with an email address that you manage.
• You keep your password secret. Anything done with your account counts as done by you.
• The data in your account is kept separate from that of other customers.

3. Credit and payment

• You buy credit in advance in a package. The price is the price shown in the app at the time of purchase, excluding VAT.
• You pay via Mollie. The credit is added to your account right after payment. You receive the invoice by email.
• One credit is one datasheet. A datasheet with more than 25 variants costs one credit per 25 variants.
• The credit is used when a datasheet is processed for the first time. If processing fails because of an error on our side, you get the credit back.
• Processing again and choosing a different ETIM class is possible a limited number of times per datasheet without extra credit. The app shows how many times remain. Exporting and exporting again is always free.
• Credit is valid for 24 months after purchase. Credit is not refunded and cannot be transferred to another account.

4. AI results

• The app reads your datasheet with an AI model. For every value the app shows the page and the quote it comes from. The app does not fill in what is not in the datasheet.
• AI can make mistakes. You review the class, the features and the trade data before you supply a file to a customer. You are responsible for the data you supply.
• The app checks the file against the official XSD and the ETIM BMEcat guideline. We do not guarantee that a wholesaler or data pool will accept the file; they may have their own requirements.

5. Your documents and data

• Your datasheets, price lists and the results are yours. You confirm that you are allowed to use the datasheets you upload, for example because you are the manufacturer or the manufacturer permits it.
• We only use your documents to provide the service. They are not used to train AI models. How we handle data is described in the privacy policy.
• You delete a datasheet and its data yourself in the app. If you close your account, we delete your data.

6. Availability

We do our best to keep SpecsMapper working, but cannot guarantee that it is always available without interruptions. We may improve or change the app. If you notice an error, please email us.

7. Liability

Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the damage. We are not liable for consequential damage, for decisions based on the results or for a customer rejecting a file. This does not apply in case of intent or gross negligence on our part, nor to liability that cannot be excluded by law.

8. Intellectual property

The app belongs to VDLIntelligence. You receive a right of use for as long as your account exists. The ETIM classification model belongs to ETIM International and is licensed under ODC‑BY. ETIM is a trademark of ETIM International; SpecsMapper is not affiliated with it.

9. Closing your account and changes

You can close your account at any time by email. Any remaining credit then expires. We may close an account in case of misuse. We may change these terms; the new version is published on this page with the new date. Credit already bought remains subject to the terms that applied at purchase, unless the change is in your favour.

10. Applicable law

These terms are governed by Dutch law. If we cannot resolve a dispute together, the competent court in the Netherlands decides.
