The General Terms and Conditions also apply to, and govern the use of, the Shurgard mobile app (the "Mobile App”) as described below. Where applicable in these General Terms and Conditions, a 'Private Customer' shall have the same meaning as a 'consumer' in the law, namely a natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft, or profession. The Shurgard store, the used storage space, product or service is called the "Storage Unit" and the Storage Agreement including these General Terms and Conditions is hereinafter called the "Storage Agreement". All goods which are stored or placed anywhere in the relevant Shurgard storage facility (including the storage unit) are referred to as “Goods".
