INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS does not warrant that the plots offered correspond exactly with any picture in any marketing materials provided by the INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS representative.

For specific or technical legal advice on the information provided, please contact INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS and a lawyer.

6. GENERAL LEGAL & TAX

Investors are subject to the legal and tax regulations of Indonesia as well as the legal and tax regulations of their country of residence.

7. FOREIGN OWNERSHIP OF INDONESIAN PROPERTY

The Investor understands that current Indonesian law does not allow direct foreign ownership of freehold land [Hak Milik], and accordingly understands that in order to comply with Indonesian Property Law he/she is investing in INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS as an ownership vehicle, which he/she has effective control over the property through the Right to Build HGB [Hak Guna Bangunan] licence acquired by INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS.

The real estate law in Indonesia is mainly governed in the Law No. 5 of 1960 on Principle Provisions of Agrarian (The ‘Agrarian’ Law). Currently in Indonesia, there is no limitation for the foreigner or the foreign entity to establish an Indonesian legal entity, fully owned by a foreigner or a foreign entity, which has main business in property development/investment sector. This matter is regulated under the Presidential Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 77 of 2007 on List of Business Fields Closed and Open with Condition to Investment as amended by Regulation of President of the Republic of Indonesia Number 111 of 2007 on Amendment to Presidential Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 77 of 2007 on List of Business Fields Closed and Open with Condition to Investment.

This investment offer is reserved for no more than 50 non-professional investors per project and an unlimited number of professional investors. This offer has been reviewed by a regulatory authority (HK SFC) in November 2019, however we encourage all investors to seek independent professional advice.

8. ACCESS

The investor understands every attempt has been made to ensure the access to the land is secure and maintained. However, in the unlikely event of closure, temporary or otherwise, there may be delays in providing infrastructure until an alternative access solution is found.

9. IMPROVEMENTS

Until resale of the land (if any sale occurs), INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS shall have the right to undertake any action that may be reasonably necessary to:

  • Secure the investor’s property; and
  • Provide maintenance services and improvements to the investor’s property.

The above can be undertaken as long as this adds value to the investor’s property and/or facilitates future resales and is therefore in the Investor’s interest.

10. FORCE MAJEURE

The investor acknowledges the risks of real estate investments in general, such as possible changes in the local real estate conditions, physical damage or destruction by force majeure, legislation changes by the Government of Indonesia and overall fluctuation in asset prices.

This force majeure clause defines the scope of unforeseeable events that might excuse nonperformance by INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS. The term force majeure comes originally from the Code Napoléon of France

and means “superior force”.

INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS shall not be liable to the investor or be deemed to be in breach of the Agreement by reason of any delay in performing, or any failure to perform, any of INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS’S obligations in relation to the plot(s) purchased, if the delay or failure was due to any cause beyond INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS’s reasonable control.

Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the following shall be regarded as an event of force majeure and beyond INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS’s reasonable control, including but not limited to:

  • Acts of God, flood, tempest, fire;
  • War or threat of war;
  • Strikes or labour disputes;
  • Embargoes, sabotage, insurrection, civil disturbance or requisition;
  • Acts, restrictions, regulations, or measures of any kind on the part of any governmental, parliamentary or local authority; or
  • Any other force majeure event.

Where there is an event of force majeure, INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS undertakes to actively evaluate the impact on the Investor’s plot(s) and will immediately notify the investor by email or phone giving full particulars of the event of force majeure and the reasons for the event preventing or delaying INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS from performing its obligations under the Agreement and INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS will use its reasonable efforts to mitigate the effect of the event of force majeure upon its or their performance of the Agreement and to fulfil its obligations under the contract.

In the event that any of the above occurs, INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS will evaluate whether to suspend performance.

An event of force majeure does not relieve a party from liability for an obligation which arose before the occurrence of that event, nor does that event affect the obligation to pay money in a timely manner which matured prior to the occurrence of that event.

Upon completion of the event of force majeure INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS will as soon as practicable recommence the performance of its obligations under this contract.

If the force majeure event continues for more than a specified period of time (to be advised depending on the event) INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS will re-evaluate the investment and keep the investor informed of any updates.

11. ECONOMIC CLIMATE

The investor understands that changes in the economic and political climate may have effects on the currency, interest rates and investor appetite, which may therefore also affect asset prices or delay performance.

12. EMERGING MARKET

The investor recognizes the difficulties of operating in an emerging property market, such as obtaining certificates and understanding regulations and reliability of data sources.

INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS conducts an extremely thorough due diligence process when acquiring the plot(s). While every effort is made to eliminate these uncertainties, sometimes it is impossible to completely remove them.

13. CERTIFICATE OWNERSHIP

Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the Investor and INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS, every Investor will have the right after purchasing the plot(s) to choose to sign notarized documents in order to change the ownership certificate from INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS to another PMA or change the certificate’s ownership title from HGB to Hak Milik. The investor will be able to choose if he prefers to use a Nominee recommended by INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS or any other Indonesian Citizen of his choice. Both these changes will imply signature of several notarized documents and possible community agreements such as covenants, prepared by INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS. The investor understands that he will bear all related costs to such changes.

14. RISKS

The investor acknowledges that a market past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results and asset prices fluctuate or even return negative results for reasons outside of INVEST INDONESIAN ISLANDS control. Investors are required to conduct their own investigations, analysis, due diligence, draw their own conclusions, and make their own decisions. Any areas concerning taxes or specific legal or technical questions should be referred to lawyers, accountants, consultants, brokers, or other professionals licensed, qualified or authorized to render such advice. The investor is also aware that there is no specified timeline for this investment so any investment returns mentioned are based on approximate values only.

15. LANGUAGE

If you use this Website in another language than English, you acknowledge and agree that any translation from the English language versions is provided to you for your information only.

To all extents the official language of these General Terms and Conditions is English. In the event of existing translations to other languages, as to interpretation of any and all of the clauses thereof, the original document in English shall prevail.

I) California Online Privacy Protection Act

CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law’s reach stretches well beyond California to require any person or company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates websites collecting Personally Identifiable Information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals or companies with whom it is being shared. – See more at: http://consumercal.org/california-online-privacy-protection-act-caloppa/#sthash.0FdRbT51.dpuf

According to CalOPPA, we agree to the following:

Users can visit our site anonymously.

Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on our home page or as a minimum, on the first significant page after entering our website.

Our Privacy Policy link includes the word ‘Privacy’ and can easily be found on the page specified above.

You will be notified of any Privacy Policy changes:

  • On our Privacy Policy Page

You can change your personal information:

Any person who provides their personal information to INVEST ISLANDS through a representative or the Site represents to INVEST ISLANDS that they are 18 years of age or older.

L) Fair Information Practices

The Fair Information Practices Principles form the backbone of privacy law in the United States and the concepts they include have played a significant role in the development of data protection laws around the globe. Understanding the Fair Information Practice Principles and how they should be implemented is critical to comply with the various privacy laws that protect personal information.

In order to be in line with Fair Information Practices we will take the following responsive action, should a data breach occur:

In compliance with new GDPR in the EU, we will notify you via email within 72 hours of INVEST ISLANDS becoming aware of the breach. This notification will occur ‘without undue delay.’

We also agree to the Individual Redress Principle which requires that individuals have the right to legally pursue enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals have recourse to courts or government agencies to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.

M) CAN SPAM Act

The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.

We collect your email address in order to:

  • Send information, respond to inquiries, and/or other requests or questions;
  • Market to our mailing list or continue to send emails to our clients after the original transaction has occurred.
