II. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF BROKERAGE

ARTICLE 1 – INTRODUCTORY PROVISIONS

These TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF BROKERAGE define (1) the terms and conditions of the sale and purchase of the brokerage of the carriage services for natural persons and baggage and (2) the obligations and liabilities of the BROKER and of natural and legal persons (ORDERING PARTIES) when ordering brokerage services and concluding the BROKERAGE CONTRACT. On grounds of these TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF BROKERAGE, the parties agree upon the rights and liabilities in the contractual relationship where the ORDERING PARTY orders a brokerage of the carriage and the BROKER brokers the carriage of people and baggage to a CARRIER. These TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF BROKERAGE are an integral part of the BROKERAGE CONTRACT.

ARTICLE 2 – BOOKING OF CARRIAGE SERVICES AND PRICE

In the booking process, the ORDERING PARTY must select or define the exact departure and arrival location and whether the trip is a round trip or a one-way trip, select the date of the carriage service and the desired TIME OF THE LATEST DROP-OFF or the TIME OF THE SOONEST PICK-UP and select the total number of PASSEENGERS by correctly selecting the number of adults, children and babies.

A child is a person measuring less than 150 cm in height and weighing more than 9 kg, and a baby is a person weighing less than 9 kg. If there are children or babies among the PASSENGERS, the INTERNET SITE will offer a suitable number of child and/or baby seats with regard to the number of children and/or babies specified by the ORDERING PARTY in the booking process (e.g. the number and models of child seats). In the booking process, the ORDERING PARTY selects the child and/or baby seat according to the offer on the INTERNET SITE. If the ORDERING PARTY fails to specify the correct number of children and/or babies in the booking process, the BROKER is not obliged to start and complete the brokerage of the carriage neither for the baby or child nor for its accompanying guardian. In case the BROKER is unable to provide a suitable child and/or baby seat and the CARRIER will not carry out the transport for this reason, the paid fee shall be refunded in full to the ORDERING PARTY. The BROKER is not liable for any damage to the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER arising therefrom, and the ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees with that.

If the ORDERING PARTY wishes to book a carriage for a GROUP OF CHILDREN, the ORDERING PARTY needs to first contact the GOOPTI Sales Support Centre via chat which is available on the INTERNET SITE and notify the BROKER about the intended booking. If the ORDERING PARTY fails to do that, the BROKER is not obliged to complete the brokerage of the carriage process and the ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees with that.
In the booking process, the ORDERING PARTY must enter the following information about the PASSENGERS: name, surname, mobile phone number, e-mail address and the departure and arrival locations (if necessary and if different than initially chosen) for every PASSENGER. If contact data of the individual PASSENGER are not entered, the BROKER is not able to notify the PASSENGER about the time/location of departure and/or other important data. The ORDERING PARTY assumes responsibility for any and all losses, damages or complaints of any nature and any risk and other consequences, such as fines, arising from such omission.
The ORDERING PARTY can either enter only the information for the first PASSENGER or the information for all PASSENGERS in the booking process. If the ORDERING PARTY only enters the information for the first PASSENGER, the first PASSENGER must bring along a list of all PASSENGERS and hand it over to the driver on the day of the carriage. The first PASSENGER stated in the order is the booking owner and considered as having the authorization from the ORDERING PARTY and the other PASSENGERS to modify the carriage for all PASSENGERS or for an individual PASSENGER.

The ORDERING PARTY agrees to inform all PASSENGERS for which the ORDERING PARTY books the brokerage of the carriage about these GOOPTI TERMS AND CONDITIONS and with the GOOPTI PRIVACY POLICY, and to make sure they fully accept them. Failing this, the ORDERING PARTY is liable for any damage to the BROKER arising therefrom, and the ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees with that.

In case of booking the brokerage for the carriage to an airport or other location from which the PASSENGER continues the journey by plane or with other means of transport, the calculation of the TIME OF THE LATEST DROP-OFF or, in case of return, the TIME OF THE SOONEST PICK-UP is of utmost importance.

These calculations and timelines are the responsibility of the ORDERING PARTY in line with the itinerary, times, instructions and requirements of the OTHER CARRIER. By taking into account the itinerary of the OTHER CARRIER, the ORDERING PARTY must define the latest time of arrival at the location from which the PASSENGER is to continue the journey with the OTHER CARRIER and/or define the soonest time of arrival to the pick-up location from which the PASSENGER is to continue the journey with the CARRIER.

The flight search engine on the INTERNET SITE, which compares the departure and the arrival times of flights with the defined TIME OF THE LATEST DROP-OFF or the defined TIME OF THE SOONEST PICK-UP, is only informational and indicative. The BROKER is not responsible for the accuracy and operation of the flight search engine and accepts no liability resulting from an improper use or operation of the tool, and the ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees with that.

The BROKER does not assume any liability for any delays of OTHER CARRIERS and any liability for the damages that are consequential for the ORDERING PARTY and/or the PASSENGER due to the use of the flight search engine provided on the INTERNET SITE or due to an incorrect estimation made by the ORDERING PARTY concerning the TIME OF THE LATEST DROP-OFF or the TIME OF THE SOONEST PICK-UP, and the ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees with that.

The TIME OF THE SOONEST PICK-UP and the TIME OF THE LATEST DROP-OFF are times, estimated with regard to the distance between the departure and arrival locations, the number of passengers and with regard to the expected traffic conditions, and may differ from the actual departure and/or arrival times, which must be taken into account by the ORDERING PARTY when booking a carriage service, and for which the BROKER does not assume any responsibility or liability, and the ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees with that.
The BROKER, the PARTNER and the CARRIER do not assume any responsibility or liability related to the (incorrect) choice of departure and arrival times depending on the itinerary of the flight or of OTHER CARRIERS, because the times of arrival and departure of OTHER CARRIERS may change, and OTHER CARRIERS communicate these changes only to their passengers.

The price of the brokerage and of the carriage is not fixed, it changes with time and depends on the demand for the services by the ORDERING PARTIES based on the type of carriage, and on the specific route at the specific time and date. Therefore, the ORDERING PARTY with its inquiry actively affects the price and the execution of the carriage, which is why a cancellation of the BROKERAGE CONTRACT is not possible once the BROKERAGE CONTRACT has been concluded, and/or no payment can be refunded to the ORDERING PARTY.
The GOOPTI services can also be bought via the GOOPTI Sales Support Centre, which can be reached on the telephone number stated on the INTERNET SITE. The BROKER reserves the right to charge a different price of the brokerage and of the carriage than stated on the INTERNET SITE if the ORDERING PARTY makes the booking through the GOOPTI Sales Support Centre.

The BROKER may charge an additional fee for bookings made via the GOOPTI Sales Support Centre. The ORDERING PARTY is informed of the amount of the fee by the GOOPTI Sales Support Centre agent in the booking process.

ARTICLE 3 – BOOKING CONFIRMATION AND PAYMENT

Following the input of all the required data on the INTERNET SITE, it will offer the ORDERING PARTY carriage options available at that moment for the selected times and for the specified date.

The BROKER brokers two different types of carriage, which differ in limitations and characteristics of the service: PRIVATE TRANSFER and SHARED TRANSFER. Those two types of carriage are executed by PLATFORM MEMBERS. The BROKER also offers other types of carriage which are described in detail in the terms and conditions of THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS executing the services. When ordering these types of services, the ORDERING PARTY must confirm and accept the terms and conditions of the selected THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDER for the BROKERAGE CONTRACT to be concluded.

The ORDERING PARTY must select one type of carriage per way and register and/or sign into the INTERNET SITE by entering the required data and by confirming that the ORDERING PARTY fully agrees with the GOOPTI TERMS AND CONDITIONS and with the GOOPTI PRIVACY POLICY. The BROKER is not obliged to broker the carriage to any ORDERING PARTY that does not fully accept the GOOPTI TERMS AND CONDITIONS and the GOOPTI PRIVACY POLICY.

The ORDERING PARTY can then continue to the next step – the fee payment. The fee includes the sum of all costs of the selected services, including communication costs and any other costs defined at this step.
Payment can be made with the credit and debit cards, listed on the INTERNET SITE. If the ORDERING PARTY saves the credit/debit card details when making a booking, all further brokerage orders can be paid by the same card without having to input the card details again.

ARTICLE 4 – CONCLUSION OF THE BROKERAGE CONTRACT

When the payment is confirmed by the ORDERING PARTY, the BROKERAGE CONTRACT is concluded and the BROKER starts the brokering process. The ORDERING PARTY receives a VOUCHER that confirms that the order of the brokerage of the carriage is completed. The BROKER undertakes to carry out the brokering process, to identify the optimal CARRIER and ensures that the selected CARRIER shall execute the carriage as requested by the ORDERING PARTY, except in cases as defined in these TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF BROKERAGE.

The BROKER does not conduct the brokerage of the carriage of GROUPS OF CHILDREN or of individual persons less than fifteen (15) years old without an accompanying adult or a written consent of the legal guardian nor the brokerage of the carriage of animals without a preliminary written approval of the BROKER and without an accompanying guardian.

In case of choosing a SHARED TRANSFER, the BROKER may organize different/multiple CARRIERS to carry out the carriage. The ORDERING PARTY explicitly agrees that the BROKER may organize different/multiple CARRIERS to carry out the carriage and that consequently, PASSENGERS, along with their baggage, may have to switch from one vehicle to another during the carriage.

If there is no cancellation of the BROKERAGE CONTRACT and/or the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE and the carriage is executed, the BROKER does not charge any commission to the ORDERING PARTY.
If the ORDERING PARTY has any complaints regarding the execution of the BROKERAGE CONTRACT or other services, a complaint may be filed in the myOpti ACCOUNT in accordance with Article 10 of the TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF CARRIAGE.

If the ORDERING PARTY receives a refund from a payment processor, bypassing the complaint procedure established by the BROKER, the BROKER may initiate legal proceedings for the recovery of the payment the refund. The ORDERING PARTY stipulates to cover any reasonable fees and costs associated with such court and/or pre-trial proceedings or steps taken for the enforcement/recovery of the claim.

ARTICLE 5 – INFORMING THE PASSENGERS AND THE ITINERARY

On the day of the carriage at the latest, the GOOPTI PLATFORM sends the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER a message with the travel itinerary via SMS and via e-mail. The itinerary will contain a specified location and time of departure, which may deviate by +/- fifteen (15) minutes from the selected FLEXIBILITY WINDOW, and the ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees with that.

The GOOPTI PLATFORM sends the PASSENGER/ORDERING PARTY a message with CARRIER information, and the driver's contact and other carriage details no later than one (1) hour before the departure. In case of communication failures such as telephone or internet network malfunction, this is considered as force majeure and the BROKER is not liable whatsoever if the PASSENGERS fail to receive carriage information, and the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER expressly agrees with that.

In case of unexpected circumstances resulting in changes to the initial booking, the BROKER will send the PASSENGER another/new message containing the latest information on the time of departure, the pick-up location, the CARRIER and the vehicle. The PASSENGER must consider the most recent message as the accurate one.

The BROKER uses the PASSENGER data and contact details provided by the ORDERING PARTY and holds no responsibility or liability for the accuracy of the data. The BROKER shall hold no responsibility for any damages which could arise from the use of incorrect data or contact details provided by the ORDERING PARTY, and the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER expressly agrees with that.

ARTICLE 6 – BAGGAGE

Each PASSENGER is entitled to carry small pieces of hand baggage (suitcases, handbags, clothes, bags) that do not exceed the weight, dimensions and number stated in the booking process on the INTERNET SITE free of charge and without preliminary notification to the BROKER. All other baggage must be checked-in in advance and paid for at least two (2) days before departure. Carriage prices for specific dimensions of baggage depend on the vehicle types used on the selected route. In the booking process, the ORDERING PARTY correctly specifies the dimensions, the number of pieces and the type of baggage, and the GOOPTI PLATFORM automatically calculates the baggage fee.

The BROKER and the PARTNER are not responsible nor liable whatsoever for personal belongings lost or forgotten in the vehicle.

ARTICLE 7 – CANCELLATION OF THE BROKERAGE CONTRACT BY THE ORDERING PARTY

If – for whatever reason – the order for the brokerage of the carriage is cancelled by the ORDERING PARTY before the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE is concluded, the fee paid by the ORDERING PARTY to the BROKER represents indemnity for the BROKERAGE which has already been carried out and is not refunded to the ORDERING PARTY. The ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees that this indemnity is non-refundable. After the cancellation by the ORDERING PARTY and the resulting termination of the BROKERAGE CONTRACT, the GOOPTI PLATFORM will issue a confirmation of the booking cancellation, a receipt for the paid indemnity, and a receipt for the fee paid for the necessary communication costs for arranging the carriage to the ORDERING PARTY.

When booking a PRIVATE TRANSFER, the ORDERING PARTY may have the possibility to choose either the cheaper transportation alternative, which does not include any refund in case of cancellation of the booking, or the more expensive alternative, which enables the ORDERING PARTY to cancel the booking through the INTERNET SITE at least forty-eight (48) hours before the planned execution of the carriage, after which the ORDERING PARTY receives a full refund of the paid fee.

In case of cancellation of a SHARED TRANSFER by the ORDERING PARTY, the refund of the paid fee is not possible and the first paragraph of this Article applies.

When the ORDERING PARTY cancels the booking and is not entitled to a refund, the GOOPTI PLATFORM may issue a DISCOUNT CODE in the amount of a part of the paid fee. This is possible only if the ORDERING PARTY makes the cancellation through the INTERNET SITE in the myOpti ACCOUNT.

The percentage of the paid fee that can be issued in the form of a DISCOUNT CODE depends on how much in advance the BROKER is informed of the cancellation. The percentage of the discount can vary between 10% and 80% of the paid fee. If the ORDERING PARTY cancels the carriage of an individual PASSENGER in the group, the ORDERNIG PARTY will only be entitled to a maximum DISCOUNT CODE of 10% of the paid fee concerning this individual PASSENGER.

If the ORDERING PARTY wishes to change the essential elements of the BROKERAGE CONTRACT (e.g. the departure time/date), this is only possible if agreed in advance with the BROKER. The BROKER has the right to charge the ORDERING PARTY for every change (for each individual PASSENGER).

ARTICLE 8 – CANCELLATION OF THE BROKERAGE CONTRACT BY THE BROKER

The BROKER has the right to cancel the brokerage and consequently the carriage itself and reimburse the ORDERING PARTY the whole paid fee only under the condition that the BROKER communicates the cancellation to the ORDERING PARTY by SMS and/or e-mail at least thirty (30) days before the date of the planned departure of the PASSENGER. In such event, the BROKER is obliged to reimburse the ORDERING PARTY the full amount, but the BROKER is not liable for any other damage or costs of the ORDERING PARTY and/or PASSENGERS. The ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGERS expressly agree with that.

The BROKER has the right to cancel the brokering of the carriage and consequently the carriage itself within twenty-four (24) hours following the purchase and the issuing of the VOUCHER if an error is found in the purchasing system. In this case, the BROKER shall promptly inform the ORDERING PARTY and fully reimburse the paid fee. In such event, the BROKER is not liable for any other damage or costs of the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGERS. The ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGERS expressly agree with that.

The BROKER always has the right to cancel the brokerage of the carriage and consequently the carriage itself without any refund of the paid fee if it discovers a misuse of the program and/or purchasing system by the ORDERING PARTY and/or OTHER BROKER and/or PASSENGER. In such event, the BROKER is not liable for any other damage or costs of the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGERS. The ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGERS expressly agree with that.

ARTICLE 9 – ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE

The ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE is a chargeable service available only to the ORDERING PARTIES/PASSENGERS traveling to or from airports. If the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER wishes to make use of this additional service, the ORDERING PARTY must, in the booking process, choose a suitable TIME FRAME which will assure a timely check-in of the PASSENGER at the airport and/or a timely checkout and baggage pick-up by the PASSENGER at the airport after landing. The ORDERING PARTY must fill in/confirm the flight number connected with the GOOPTI carriage on the INTERNET SITE.

If the CARRIER delivers the PASSENGER to the airport by the TIME OF THE LATEST DROP-OFF, selected by the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER at booking, but the PASSENGER still misses the flight (e.g. due to the PASSENGER's own negligence or because the TIME FRAME chosen by the ORDERING PARTY at booking was too narrow), the PASSENGER cannot enforce the ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE and the BROKER is free of all obligations arising from the ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE.

The substitute carriage can be provided with such a FLEXIBILITY WINDOW as selected by the ORDERING PARTY at booking. If the ORDERING PARTY does not provide the BROKER with the information about the flight change within twelve (12) hours as stated above, and the report of the information of the change is made less than thirty-six (36) hours before the scheduled carriage, the ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees that the BROKER is, in accordance with the GOOPTI TERMS AND CONDITIONS, free of all obligations arising from the ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE and the report shall be deemed as a change of booking under the GOOPTI TERMS AND CONDITIONS, of which the BROKER shall notify the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER when receiving the report. The BROKER is obliged to provide a substitute carriage in cases when the flight is postponed to an earlier departure time. In cases where the flight departure time is postponed to a later time, the BROKER will only provide a substitute carriage when the flight is delayed for more than three (3) hours.

The BROKER may organize the substitute carriage with any type of GOOPTI carriage and any type of vehicle.

The substitute carriage can be provided with such a FLEXIBILITY WINDOW as selected by the ORDERING PARTY at booking. If the report of the change is not provided within twelve (12) hours as stated above, and the report is made less than thirty-six (36) hours before the scheduled carriage, the ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees that the BROKER is, in accordance with the GOOPTI TERMS AND CONDITIONS, free of all obligations arising from the ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE and the report shall be deemed as a change of booking under the GOOPTI TERMS AND CONDITIONS.

The PASSENGER communicating with the BROKER shall then communicate the information to the other members of the group. Other PASSENGERS in the group should refrain from communicating with the BROKER.

The BROKER does not provide the ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE service in situations when the delay (and/or other situation) is caused by the intent or negligence (including less severe negligence) of the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER.

It is not possible to receive any cash payments under the ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE; the BROKER provides exclusively substitute services in the form of transportation and/or accommodation as defined in these GOOPTI TERMS AND CONDITIONS. A substitute GOOPTI carriage is a carriage of the same type as the type chosen by the ORDERING PARTY at booking GOOPTI. In the event that a delay or change of the flight is communicated to GOOPTI less than forty-eight (48) hours before departure or arrival, the BROKER may organize another type of GOOPTI carriage, and the vehicle may always be chosen at the BROKER's discretion.

The ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER expressly agrees that if the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER refuses any of the offered substitute services (GOOPTI or other carriage, air transportation or accommodation), the agreement relating to the ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE is terminated, the fee paid by the ORDERING PARTY to the BROKER represents the non-refundable indemnity for the BROKERAGE which has already been carried out and the BROKER is free of any and all obligations in connection with the ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE and is free of any liability for damages arising therefrom.

The ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER expressly agrees that if at the moment of booking of the GOOPTI SERVICES, the ORDERING PARTY has provided wrong/incomplete departure/arrival time or other data for the check-in/checkout at the airport, the agreement that relates to the ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE is terminated, the fee paid by the ORDERING PARTY to the BROKER represents the non-refundable indemnity for the BROKERAGE which has already been carried out, and the BROKER is free of any and all obligations in connection with the ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE, and is free of any liability for damages arising therefrom.

ARTICLE 1 – INTRODUCTORY PROVISIONS

These TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF CARRIAGE of the CARRIERS included in the GOOPTI PLATFORM define the terms and conditions of the sale and purchase of the carriage of natural persons and baggage and the obligations and liabilities of the CARRIER and of the ORDERING PARTY and/or PASSENGER at ordering the carriage services and concluding the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE. On grounds of these TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF CARRIAGE, the parties agree upon the rights and liabilities of all the parties in the contractual relationship in which the carriage is ordered by the ORDERING PARTY via a BROKER and executed by the CARRIER.

ARTICLE 2 – CONCLUSION OF THE CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE

The ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees that at the moment of accepting these TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF CARRIAGE, the CARRIER will not yet be selected among the CARRIERS that are PLATFORM MEMBERS. The ORDERING PARTY has, by accepting the TERMS AND CONDITONS OF BROKERAGE, authorized the BROKER to select on its behalf the CARRIER that will perform the CARRIAGE as ordered by the ORDERING PARTY on the INTERNET SITE or via other tools/channels.

The ORDERING PARTY agrees that the GOOPTI PLATFORM will connect the CARRIER and the ORDERING PARTY at least one (1) hour before the beginning of the planned carriage.

When the CARRIER accepts the offer, the GOOPTI PLATFORM sends an SMS message and an e-mail to the provided mobile telephone number and e-mail address of the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER containing information about the CARRIER, the driver's contact, the fee amount and other carriage details. The ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees that at that moment, the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE is concluded between the ORDERING PARTY and the CARRIER. The BROKER is not a party to the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE.

If the ORDERING PARTY is not also the PASSENGER, the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE is concluded between the PASSENGER and the CARRIER at the moment when the PASSENGER enters the vehicle. The BROKER is not a party to the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE.

If the carriage is carried out by more than one CARRIER, of which the ORDERING PARTY is informed together with the information about the CARRIERS in the manner as abovementioned, the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE is concluded with each CARRIER individually for the respective segments of the carriage.

The ORDERING PARTY shall receive an invoice issued by GOOPTI or by the CARRIER or by the OTHER BROKER as the case may be. The ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees to the possibility of receiving the invoice electronically.
If the booking is cancelled by the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER after the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE has already been concluded, meaning the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE is cancelled less than one (1) hour before the beginning of the carriage, the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER is not entitled to any refund whatsoever. The ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees that the paid fee for the ordered carriage is regarded as an indemnity for the cancellation of the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE and for the occupancy of a place in the vehicle up to one (1) hour before departure.

The GOOPTI PLATFORM shall in these instances issue to the ORDERING PARTY a confirmation of the booking cancellation and a receipt for the paid indemnity for the cancellation of the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE.

ARTICLE 3 – DURING THE TRANSPORTATION

The beginning of the transportation is defined as the moment when the PASSENGER takes his/her seat in the vehicle. Before entering the vehicle, the driver can demand from the PASSENGER to present a valid ID or passport (as the case may be) to compare the data with the PASSENGER’s data stated in the booking, and the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER expressly agrees with that.

The break in the transportation between the pick-up location and the final destination (drop-off location) is a stop at which PASSENGERS leave the vehicle. On journeys that take less than four and a half (4.5) hours, a stop with a duration of fifteen (15) minutes after two and a half (2.5) hours of drive is planned in the journey time. On journeys which take four and half (4.5) hours or more, two (2) stops with a total duration of forty-five (45) minutes are planned in the journey time. In cases of shorter journeys, the driver determines the number and duration of stops in agreement with the PASSENGERS. The first stop that may last for up to fifteen (15) minutes can be set upon request of a single PASSENGER, while all additional stops must be agreed unanimously among the PASSENGERS. If the number and duration of stops due to specific wishes of the PASSENGERS cause any delays, the driver, the BROKER and the CARRIER are not liable to the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER for any other damage or costs which could arise as a consequence of the delay, and the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER expressly agrees with that.

The end of transportation is the moment when the PASSENGER leaves the vehicle at his/her drop-off location.
Only in cases of PRIVATE TRANSFERS, the shortest and/or fastest route will always be taken except if requested otherwise by the PASSENGERS in return for an additional fee. In case of SHARED TRANSFERS, the vehicle may stop at certain (home) addresses or other pick-up/drop-off locations, which could mean that the chosen route to the drop-off location is not the shortest or the fastest one, which can mean a longer duration of the journey. When it can be reasonably presumed that the carriage will take longer than usual, like in cases of bad weather forecast, road work, predictable traffic jams, etc., the vehicle can depart as early as necessary to ensure a timely arrival of the PASSENGERS at the chosen drop-off locations, of which the BROKER notifies each PASSENGER by SMS or e-mail. The driver is always entitled to make a stop if it is necessary for the safety of the journey.

ARTICLE 4 – BAGGAGE

The CARRIER is obliged to take onboard the vehicle only small pieces of hand baggage (suitcases, handbags, clothes, bags) that do not exceed the weight, dimensions and number limitations stated in the booking process on the INTERNET SITE. All other baggage, which corresponds to the limitations in weight, size and number stated on the INTERNET SITE, can only be taken onboard if it was correctly checked in and paid for at least two (2) days before the carriage. If the dimensions, weight and quantity of the baggage are not within the limits selected by the ORDERING PARTY at booking on the INTERNET SITE or checked in and paid for at least two (2) days before the carriage, the CARRIER is entitled to reject the carriage of such baggage. All baggage, including sports equipment, must be suitably packed for carriage for safety reasons and so that it does not damage or harm or dirty other baggage and/or the vehicle in any way. If the baggage is not suitably packed, the CARRIER may at its sole discretion reject the carriage of such baggage. In cases when the baggage that was not checked-in in advance is properly packed and there is enough space in the vehicle and the baggage can be safely placed into the vehicle, the CARRIER may transport the additional baggage but will charge the transport of such baggage to the PASSENGER according to the valid price published on the INTERNET SITE.

It is not allowed to take any illegal and/or dangerous materials and objects on board of the vehicle such as but not limited to weapons, radioactive substances, explosives, combustible and corrosive liquids, gas bottles with butane or propane, knives, poisons, corrosive substances, acids, magnets, substances containing viruses or bacteria, and illegal drugs and other items or substances that could obstruct the movement of PASSENGERS or could cause harm to PASSENGERS, their belongings, the vehicle, the driver or the environment.

ARTICLE 5 – SAFETY, OBLIGATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE PASSENGER, RESTRICTIONS REGARDING THE PASSENGER’S CONDUCT ABOARD THE VEHICLE AND EXCLUSION OF THE PASSENGER

All vehicles used by CARRIERS are licensed for passenger transportation and are properly insured, checked and in accordance with the applicable local regulations. Accident insurance for PASSENGERS is included in the price of the carriage.

The PASSENGER is obliged to obey all reasonable safety requests made by the driver of the vehicle. Not obeying such requests may lead to exclusion from the carriage without the right to any compensation and/or refund whatsoever. The CARRIER and the driver do not accept any liability for damage in this respect and the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER expressly agrees with that.

In cases of inappropriate conduct by PASSENGERS that can cause physical harm or gross discomfort to themselves or to other PASSENGERS, cause a great deal of discomfort or dislike to other PASSENGERS or damage the vehicle or baggage of other PASSENGERS or in any other way diminish the CARRIER’s ability to conduct the carriage, the driver will interrupt the carriage and resolve the issue to secure the safety of other PASSENGERS and of the vehicle before continuing. In such situations, the driver is always entitled to refuse or remove the person(s) responsible for misconduct from the vehicle, in which case the removed PASSENGER is not entitled to any refund. The CARRIER and the driver do not accept any liability for damage in this respect and the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER expressly agree with that.

When travelling in the vehicle, PASSENGERS are forbidden to: open the doors during the drive, throw objects out of or around the vehicle, obstruct the vehicle exits, destroy or steal appliances and/or soil the inside or the outside of the vehicle or act in any other way that would diminish the capacity to carry out the carriage or cause damage to other PASSENGERS, their belongings, the CARRIER and its assets, other assets or to the environment.

PASSENGERS are forbidden to smoke, consume alcoholic beverages or spirits and/or consume food (especially greasy or liquid) in the vehicle and are liable for the recovery and cleaning and repair costs if they arise because of their actions (vomiting, urinating, littering etc.). PASSENGERS are also forbidden to bring on board the vehicle raw, fresh, cooked, baked or dried food or foodstuff if it is not stored in an appropriate packaging which prevents it to emit odour into the vehicle.

The ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER is liable for any damage caused by not respecting these conditions or regulations in accordance with the applicable legislation.

The CARRIER is not obligated to transport a PASSENGER for whom it is reasonable to presume that he/she will cause disturbance or prevent the CARRIER from meeting its obligations to the other PASSENGERS. In such cases, the PASSENGER is not entitled to any refund and the CARRIER is not liable for any damages arising from the incident. The driver may refuse to transport a PASSENGER or can remove the PASSENGER from the vehicle if he or she shows signs of abusive or improper or violent behaviour towards the driver and/or other PASSENGERS and/or if the PASSENGER fails to respect the applicable safety regulations and thus endangers the drive or the PASSENGERS and/or if the PASSENGER wishes to take onboard inappropriate baggage or dangerous substances.

The driver may deny boarding to the PASSENGER who does not provide a valid ID or passport (as the case may be) as requested.

The exclusion of a PASSENGER under this article will not lead to any right to a refund whatsoever and/or right to compensation of damages of the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER and the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER expressly agrees with that.

ARTICLE 6 – DELAYS

PASSENGER’s delay:

PASSENGER’s delay:
The CARRIER provides his services on a best-effort basis and shall strive to depart punctually at the time of departure as defined in the notification to the PASSENGER and is not obliged to wait for the PASSENGER.
In case of a PRIVATE TRANSFER, the PASSENGER’s delay due to a delay of the OTHER CARRIER may be a maximum of one (1) hour.

If the ORDERING PARTY did not correctly check and confirm the departure time with regard to the OTHER CARRIER’s itinerary and in accordance with Article 2 of the TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF BROKERAGE, the BROKER and the CARRIER assume no liability for any delay to the selected drop-off location.

In all other cases of the PASSENGER’s delay, the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE concluded between the CARRIER and the ORDERING PARTY is considered terminated (except if the ORDERING PARTY has bought the ABSOLUTELY NO WORRIES PACKAGE as defined in the TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF BROKERAGE) and the ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees that in this case, the ORDERING PARTY is not entitled to any refund of the paid fee which is regarded as an indemnity for the termination of the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE.

Regardless of the reason for the delay, as soon as the PASSENGER becomes aware of the delay, he/she must always notify the BROKER of the delay via SMS or by calling the emergency number, which is sent to the ORDERING PARTY in the booking confirmation.

CARRIER’s delay:

The CARRIER reserves the right to have shorter delays of up to two (2) hours, which can be caused by waiting for other PASSENGERS due to flight delays, traffic conditions, border control and other unforeseeable events, to which the ORDERING PARTY expressly agrees and which the ORDERING PARTY should consider when placing the order for brokerage of carriage and selecting a FLEXIBILITY WINDOW and a TIME FRAME.

In general, the CARRIER shall depart punctually at the time of departure as defined in the notification to the PASSENGER.

If due to the CARRIER’s delay the PASSENGER misses a connection with the OTHER CARRIER, the CARRIER will not be liable if one or more of the following circumstances applies:

1. The data/information provided by the ORDERING PARTY at booking was incorrect or inaccurate.
2. The TIME OF THE LATEST DROP-OFF was incorrectly selected.
3. The delay was due to external unforeseeable events that are beyond the BROKER’s and/or CARRIER’s reach (force majeure).
4. The delay was due to stops during the carriage requested by or agreed with the PASSENGER.
5. The delay was due to circumstances either unforeseen and/or unpredictable and which cannot be averted notwithstanding the due care of the CARRIER or the BROKER.
6. The ORDERING PARTY has not checked and confirmed the departure times with regard to the OTHER CARRIER’s itinerary and in accordance with Article 2 of the TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF BROKERAGE.

In all other cases the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER is entitled to a compensation by way of and limited to the amount of the paid fee and an additional DISCOUNT CODE in the value of the paid fee. The ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER expressly agrees that the BROKER and the CARRIER are not liable for any other damage or costs of the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER.

ARTICLE 7 – OTHER EXTRAORDINARY INTERRUPTIONS OF CARRIAGE FOR WHICH THE PASSENGER CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE

If the carriage is interrupted due to other unexpected events (except the events of force majeure) for which the PASSENGER cannot be held accountable, the PASSENGER holds the right to either request from the CARRIER a transfer back to the pick-up location along with his/her baggage within a reasonable time frame and a refund of the paid fee to the ORDERING PARTY, or to withdraw from the contract and to request a refund of the paid fee to the ORDERING PARTY. In both cases, the ORDERING PARTY shall receive full refund of the paid fee and additionally from the BROKER a DISCOUNT CODE in the value of the paid fee.

The ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER expressly agrees that in case of any other unexpected interruptions of the carriage, the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER is not entitled to any other reimbursements or compensation for damages, except if it is proven that the interruption was caused intentionally or by gross negligence of the CARRIER.

ARTICLE 8 – FORCE MAJEURE

In case of non-performance or interruption of the carriage due to a force majeure situation (external reasons that are unforeseeable and could not be averted and/or deflected) which prevents a timely pursuit of the drive, neither the CARRIER nor the BROKER are liable for any damages nor do they have the obligation to give any refund to the ORDERING PARTY and/or PASSENGER.

Internet failure or slowdown, acts of terrorism and cyberattacks are also considered force majeure.
An act of terrorism is any violent act which endangers human life, movable or immovable property or infrastructure, either by force, violence or threat, and is made for political, religious, ideological or similar purposes and intended to influence the government of a country or to intimidate the public or some part of it, or has such an effect.

A cyberattack is a malicious attack using or through the operation of a computer, computer system, computer software or hardware, data collection, information databases, microchip, integrated circuit or similar device in computer or other equipment, malicious code or process in some other electronic system.

ARTICLE 9 – CARRIER LIABILITIES

The CARRIER is liable for any damage that may arise in an accident during the carriage as a consequence of death, injury or health detriment of the PASSENGER in accordance with the applicable legislation.

The CARRIER is not liable for any damage that arises from death, injury or health detriment of the PASSENGER if the damage did not occur due to the CARRIER’s fault or if it was caused by the PASSENGER’s actions or behavior, or if it was due to a cause that was beyond the CARRIER’s influence (external reasons that are unforeseeable and could not be averted and/or deflected) – force majeure.

The CARRIER is liable for damage arising from loss or damage of baggage that was not taken out of the vehicle by the PASSENGER in accordance with the provisions of the applicable legislation.

When the ORDERING PARTY also books the services for other PASSENGERS, the ORDERING PARTY is responsible for acquiring their written consent for such disclosure/usage of their personal data.

Additional information regarding data usage, processing, and transmission are listed and described in the GOOPTI PRIVACY POLICY.

The CARRIER shall treat all data and information arising from the concluded contracts or in connection with the execution of the concluded contracts as business secrets. This does not apply to data which have to be communicated to authorized persons and official bodies in accordance with the applicable legislation.

ARTICLE 12 – FINAL PROVISIONS

The CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE, concluded in accordance with these TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF CARRIAGE, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the domain of the CARRIER. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG 1980) does not apply to the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE.

The parties hereby agree that all matters shall be resolved by mutual agreement.
If that is not possible, the parties agree that the jurisdiction for all disputes regarding the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE shall be given to the materially competent court that has territorial jurisdiction by the domicile of the CARRIER, unless another court has territorial jurisdiction in line with the provisions of the EU legislation or the legislation of an EU Member State on consumer protection.

If more than one CARRIER was involved in the carriage, the ORDERING PARTY/PASSENGER or any other person entitled to damages may only file a lawsuit and/or claim against the CARRIER responsible for the carriage when the incident occurred, except in cases when the first CARRIER has expressly undertaken liability for the whole carriage.

In cases of discrepancies between these TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF CARRIAGE in different languages, the English version prevails.

For interpretation of these TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF CARRIAGE and of all the elements (including the conclusion and termination) of the CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE the law of the country of the domicile of the CARRIER applies.

• There are no open issues regarding the referral and/or REFERRER and/or REFERRED FRIEND, such as fraudulent activity, REFERRER and/or REFERRED FRIEND being a bot, the REFERRER not concluding the referral through the GOOPTI landing page, etc.

The REFERRED FRIEND must complete a purchase of GOOPTI SERVICES before the REFERRER is granted a discount.

The REFERRER shall be credited with the discount that may be used through the myOpti ACCOUNT in the myDiscounts section.

The maximum amount of an individual discount may be EUR fifteen (15). The maximum amount of all discounts that any person in the REFERRAL PROGRAM may acquire is EUR one hundred (100.00). Any discount exceeding this amount is converted into the AFFILIATE PROGRAM DISCOUNT CODE that enables the PARTY to earn a COMMISSION in accordance with the provisions of the AFFILIATE PROGRAM and in accordance with the information provided on the INTERNET SITE.

If a REFERRED FRIEND receives referral links from multiple REFERRERS, only the corresponding REFERRER of the referral link used by the REFERRED FRIEND will receive a discount.

ARTICLE 3 – REDEEMING THE DISCOUNT

The discount shall appear in the myDiscounts section of the myOpti ACCOUNT where it may be redeemed by the REFERRER.

The discount may only be used for purchases of GOOPTI SERVICES by creating the DISCOUNT CODE (redeemed discount), which is then used at the next purchase.

The granted discount must be redeemed within one (1) year after the REFERRED FRIEND has made the purchase. The discount cannot be used in combination with other discounts and DISCOUNT CODES from different accounts together in a single purchase or bundled/combined in one (1) account.

The discount acquired through referral cannot be exchanged for cash or any other form of payment. Selling/trading or other similar activities with the DISCOUNT CODE (redeemed discount) generated in myDiscounts are prohibited and the PARTY expressly agrees that GOOPTI has the right to revoke the DISCOUNT CODE.

The REFERRER is prohibited to receive a discount through the creation of multiple myOpti ACCOUNTS or other similar practices. The PARTY expressly agrees that the myOpti ACCOUNT and/or DISCOUNT CODE and/or link of the REFERRER and REFERRED FRIEND shall be revoked and deleted if any practice of the REFERRER or the REFERRED FRIEND is considered fraudulent and/or abusive and that all the discounts in the respective myOpti ACCOUNT shall be annulled.

ARTICLE 4 – REFERRED FRIENDS’ DISCOUNT

The REFERRED FRIEND shall receive a REFERRAL DISCOUNT in the amount as granted by GOOPTI if and when the REFERRED FRIEND makes a purchase. The REFERRED FRIEND may only use the REFERRAL DISCOUNT if the person is a natural person and an ORDERING PARTY. Any person who was already an ORDERING PARTY prior to the referral booking is thus not eligible to again receive the REFERRAL DISCOUNT as the REFERRED FRIEND. A REFERRED FRIEND may only use one referral link.

ARTICLE 5 – CHANGES, LIABILITIES AND TERMINATION

GOOPTI may without prior notice discontinue the REFERRAL PROGRAM; it may suspend the REFERRAL PROGRAM for a limited period and terminate the REFERRAL PROGRAM in whole at any time for any reason. These REFERRAL PROGRAM TERMS AND CONDITIONS may change without notice and the changes apply to all DISCOUNTS, REFERRAL DISCOUNTS or incentives and/or other details of the REFERRAL PROGRAM.

The discount in myDiscounts obtained through fraudulent behaviour and/or activities is null. GOOPTI may delete the myOpti ACCOUNT and delete the discount in myDiscounts and/or redeemed discount if GOOPTI deems the activity of the PARTY or third person in the myOpti ACCOUNT of the PARTY is abusive or fraudulent or GOOPTI has reason to believe the account shall be used for activities of such nature. A fraudulent activity is also publishing or selling discounts and/or REFERRAL DISCOUNTS, received under the REFERRAL PROGRAM, on public web portals with mass offers of discounts or other benefits. GOOPTI reserves the right to cancel or remove any referral links, such as those stated above. GOOPTI shall take no other liability from this REFERRAL PROGRAM other than the promised discount for the REFERRER and the promised REFERRAL DISCOUNT for the REFERRED FRIEND.

GOOPTI has sole discretion to cancel or change any and all activities or granted discount and/or REFERRAL DISCOUNT as it deems fair and appropriate.
