DRAFT – for legal review. The platform is English only; a Bulgarian version is kept for the lawyer in docs/legal/.
Principal: …, company/identifier …, registered office …, represented by ….
Agent: ANB Consult Ltd, VAT BG208982488, Bratiya Miladinovi 12, 4230 Asenovgrad, Bulgaria.
The principal, …, hereby authorises the agent to:
- create, store, publish and update on its behalf the digital passports of its batteries under Article 77 and Annex XIII of Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 based on data provided by the principal;
- keep backups of the passports with an independent storage provider under Article 78;
- give access to non-public passport data to persons with a legitimate interest, the Commission, market surveillance authorities and notified bodies under the Regulation;
- register the passports on behalf of the principal in the registry under Article 13 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1781 where EU law and the registry allow it, for the registrations the principal starts in the platform; the duty to register remains with the principal;
- generate the permanent addresses and QR codes of the passports from the identifiers and serial numbers the principal provides, and keep the permanent addresses resolving or, after a switch, redirecting to the provider named by the principal;
- if the agent stops the Service, hand the passports, their versions, backups and redirects over to the principal, to a provider named by it or to a depositary established in the European Union, as set out in the terms of use.
The agent may use subcontractors for hosting, storage, backups and e-mail. Those for hosting, storage and backups are established in the European Union; the e-mail provider may process messages outside the Union. They act only on the agent's instructions and never in the principal's name.
The principal remains solely responsible for the conformity of the passports with the Regulation and the accuracy of the data provided. The agent does not assume any obligation of the principal under the Regulation.
This authorisation is for an indefinite period. The principal may withdraw it in writing; point 4 may also be withdrawn alone in the platform. Withdrawal takes effect when the agent receives it. From then the agent creates, publishes and registers nothing new. Withdrawal does not affect the continuity obligations in section 5 of the terms of use: until the published passports are handed over or redirected, this authorisation stays in force for keeping them available.
The person signing declares that it is entitled to represent the principal.
