(1) Lockers should be handled properly. Users should take care to prevent them from getting damaged or soiled.
(2) All items must be removed from the lockers after usage. Users should leave lockers in a condition that allows others to use them immediately thereafter.
(1) If a locker is not emptied by the end of the usage period or is used without authorisation, the Foundation is entitled to open and empty the locker. Moreover, the Foundation is not required to issue an order to empty the locker or advance notice of its intention to do so.
(2) When an unemptied locker is opened by the museum staff, a written protocol is made, documenting the date, time, reason for opening, the individuals present during opening, a list of the items inside and their respective condition.
