2. Service description
Sprinkling Act provides an AI Act position assessment service. Users answer a structured questionnaire and receive a diagnostic score. Paid users receive a detailed position assessment report (15–20 pages).
Important: Sprinkling Act is an independent assessment tool. We are not affiliated with the European Commission or any regulatory authority. Our reports do not constitute legal advice.
Nature of our commitment: Sprinkling Act commits to an obligation of means, not an obligation of result. We apply all reasonable professional diligence to produce an analysis faithful to Regulation 2024/1689 as of the stated regulatory freeze date. Our analysis constitutes a structured positioning artefact and does not constitute a guarantee of compliance, a certification, or a substitute for qualified legal counsel.

2bis. Scope limit — Article 5 cases
Sprinkling Act reserves the right to decline or cancel a report if the initial diagnostic reveals possible applicability of Article 5 of Regulation 2024/1689 (prohibited practices). In such cases, Sprinkling Act will:
— Notify the client within 7 days of intake receipt;
— Redirect the client to a specialised law firm in digital law, with no commission or compensation to Sprinkling Act;
— Issue a full refund within 14 days.
This clause protects the client from an incomplete diagnostic and Sprinkling Act from a mission outside its methodological scope.
— Notify the client within 7 days of intake receipt;
— Redirect the client to a specialised law firm in digital law, with no commission or compensation to Sprinkling Act;
— Issue a full refund within 14 days.
This clause protects the client from an incomplete diagnostic and Sprinkling Act from a mission outside its methodological scope.
2ter. AI Act roles — Provider and Deployer
The Sprinkling Act diagnostic identifies the client’s role(s) under Articles 25-27 of Regulation 2024/1689: Provider, Deployer, Importer, or Distributor. The client may combine multiple roles on a single system or on different modules.
The client acknowledges that:
— Each role triggers distinct, non-superimposable obligations;
— In case of dual role (Provider + Deployer), Art. 16–25 obligations (Provider) add to Art. 26 obligations (Deployer);
— Providing a system to third-party clients creates a cascade responsibility that Sprinkling Act documents in the report but cannot execute on behalf of the client.

3. Disclaimer — Not legal advice
Reports generated by Sprinkling Act are informational only. They are based on your self-declared answers and our scoring methodology. They do not constitute legal advice, legal opinion, or certification of compliance with the AI Act or any other regulation.
You should consult a qualified legal professional before making compliance decisions based on our reports. Sprinkling Act cannot be held responsible for decisions made on the basis of a report.

3bis. Non-substitution for legal advice
The report produced by Sprinkling Act constitutes a methodological positioning analysis based on the 6 Gates screening grid and the published annexes of Regulation 2024/1689. It does not constitute in any case:
— A legal opinion within the meaning of legislation applicable to the legal profession (in Belgium, Code judiciaire; in France, Loi 71-1130);
— A certification within the meaning of Articles 40-43 of the Regulation;
— A compliance attestation opposable to a supervisory authority;
— An audit within the meaning of ISO, IFRS, or equivalent standards.
The client is invited to consult a lawyer specialised in digital law for any legal, contractual, or litigation decision based on the report. Sprinkling Act may redirect to partner law firms without exclusivity and by disclosing any apporteur commission.

5. Qualification and selection
Access to the Full Report (€690) requires prior qualification. Sprinkling Act reviews every report request individually.
The founder of Sprinkling Act reserves the right to decline, defer, or cancel any report request if:
— The applicant’s profile does not correspond to the personas described on the website (CTO, DPO, Head of Compliance, or equivalent decision-maker)
— The described AI system falls outside the current assessment scope
— The information provided is incomplete or inconsistent
If the applicant is not the decision-maker for the organization’s AI systems, a written recommendation from a qualified superior (whose role matches the site’s personas) may be required. This recommendation will be verified (email and/or LinkedIn).
If a request is declined before report generation, no payment is debited. If payment was captured, a full refund is issued.

7bis. Accuracy of declarations
The intake questionnaire is the primary data source for your assessment. Your answers directly determine the classification of your AI system. You are solely responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the information provided.
A single inaccurate answer can influence the entire assessment result. Each question is designed to map a specific regulatory gate — the questionnaire adapts to your declared role and system characteristics.
In case of false, misleading, or materially incomplete declarations, Sprinkling Act reserves the right to:
— Suspend or cancel report delivery without refund
— Revoke the associated badge from the public registry
— Decline future service requests from the same entity
This clause protects the credibility of the assessment methodology and the integrity of the public badge registry. Applicable law: Belgian Code of Economic Law — obligation of good faith (Art. 5.3 Civil Code).

8. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by Belgian law, Sprinkling Act’s total liability for any claim arising from or related to the service is limited to the amount you paid for the specific service giving rise to the claim.
Sprinkling Act is not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, or business opportunities.
A favorable assessment score does not guarantee compliance with the AI Act. Regulatory outcomes depend on factors beyond the scope of our assessment.

9. Payment, processing and refunds
Payments are processed by Stripe Payments Europe Ltd. All prices are in euros and exclude VAT unless stated otherwise.
Processing requirement: Payment alone does not trigger report generation. Your dossier is processed only once both payment and the intake questionnaire are completed. Priority in the processing queue is determined by the speed of questionnaire completion after payment. If the questionnaire is not completed, reminders are sent at day 1, day 3, and day 7 after payment.
Delivery timelines by tier:
— Full Report (€690): Confirmation 1–3 business days after questionnaire submitted. Report delivery 5–7 business days after confirmation. Total: approximately 1–2 weeks from questionnaire completion.
— Signal Watch (€199/mo): Setup 2–3 business days after Full Report delivered. First alert cycle within 7 days of activation.
— Intelligence Report (€490/mo): Setup 3–5 business days after Signal Watch active. First radar delivery within 14 days of activation.
— Enterprise (custom + €3,500/mo): Scope definition 5–10 business days after questionnaire. Setup phase 2–4 weeks depending on system count. For >20 systems: 4–6 weeks. For multi-jurisdiction: add 1–2 weeks.
Given the digital nature of the service, the right of withdrawal (14-day cooling-off period) does not apply once report generation has begun, in accordance with Article VI.53, 13° of the Belgian Code of Economic Law. By proceeding with payment, you explicitly consent to immediate performance and acknowledge the waiver of your right of withdrawal.
Late payment: Any invoice not paid within 30 days of its date shall automatically and without prior notice bear interest at a conventional rate of 8% per annum, calculated pro rata temporis. A flat-rate recovery fee of 10% of the amount due (minimum €40) shall also be payable. These terms apply without prejudice to statutory late-payment interest under the Belgian Law of 2 August 2002 on combating late payment in commercial transactions, where applicable.

10. Force majeure
Sprinkling Act is not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to: illness or incapacity of the sole practitioner, failure of cloud infrastructure providers (Supabase, Vercel, Resend, Stripe), unforeseen changes in applicable legislation rendering the analysis obsolete, decisions by European or national authorities, natural disasters, or pandemics.
In case of force majeure, Sprinkling Act will notify the client within 48 business hours and offer: (a) a rescheduled delivery with a mutually agreed timeline, (b) a partial refund proportional to unperformed work, or (c) a full refund if performance has become permanently impossible.

11. Regulatory change & report currency
Each report reflects the regulatory framework as of its date of issuance (methodology version and regulatory freeze date are stated on page 1 of every report). The EU AI Act and its implementing/delegated acts are subject to change. Sprinkling Act assumes no liability for regulatory changes occurring after report delivery.
Reports are not automatically updated when the regulatory landscape changes. If a change in regulation, guideline, standard, or enforcement practice materially affects your classification, you will need a re-assessment at the then-current rate to obtain an updated report.
Signal Watch (€199/month) provides continuous regulatory monitoring and automatic re-scoring when changes occur. Clients without an active Signal Watch subscription are responsible for monitoring regulatory developments independently.

We may update these Terms. Material changes will be communicated via email or a notice on the website at least 30 days before taking effect. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
Methodology versioning: The Sprinkling Act scoring methodology is versioned (e.g. v1.0).

Clients who wish to obtain a report under the current methodology may request a re-assessment at the then-current rate. We will notify active clients by email when a new methodology version is released that materially affects their classification.
