Efoil-tour may at any time impose quality standards upon the Organizer, including but not limited to standards regarding technical requirements, information level and requirements regarding the Experience Offers and/or services offered by the Organizer to Users. Efoil-tour may at any time amend or supplement these standards and can – at its sole discretion – (temporarily) block the Organizer's Account if these standards are not met.

The Organizer is not entitled to:

make Content available that is in any way unlawful or infringes the rights of Efoil-tour and/or third parties, including – but not limited to – IP Rights and rights that relate to the protection of privacy;

violate minimum (quality) standards communicated by Efoil-tour from time to time.

If, after completing an Experience Offer, a Users experience materially and objectively differed in a negative sense (to be assessed by Efoil-tour) from the experience suggested by the Organizer in its Experience Offer due to the Organizers violation of article 3.6e, the Organizer shall refund the total amount paid by the User for the Reservation. In addition, Efoil-tour shall be entitled to suspend or delete the Organizers Account or impose additional requirements for subsequent Experience Offers.

Efoil-tour reserves the right to modify, refuse or delete Content, in particular in - but not limited to - the events such Content is unlawful or violates any third party right, these Terms and Conditions or legislation or does not meet Efoil-tour's (quality) standards.

If the Organizer is of the opinion that certain content offered by another Organizer or that is otherwise available on the Platform infringes its rights and/or the rights of a third party, the Organizer shall notify Efoil-tour thereof.

In other words:

"Efoil-tour can in no way be held liable if issues (however unlikely) arise between you and users. This includes for instance your responsibility to make sure their personal data is protected. Any quality standards imposed by us have to be complied with at all times. You have to be honest about the experience you offer: you will have to refund payment if you submit misleading information (for example, you cannot charge any additional fee before or during the experience and your accommodation should meet the specifications you submit). And finally, you cannot use our site in any inappropriate way such as making available content that infringes on the intellectual property of Efoil-tour or any third parties, harm the interests of Efoil-tour in any way or engage others to do so etc."

Experience Offers and Reservations

The Organizer acknowledges and accepts that the Experience Offers are automatically processed by Efoil-tour and the Organizer itself is solely responsible for (the repair of) any inaccuracies and/or inconsistencies in the Experience Offers displayed in the Platform. The Organizer is fully liable for all claims from Users and/or third parties related to (Reservations made due to) an incorrect Experience Offer and shall indemnify Efoil-tour from all claims in this respect.

The Organizer is not entitled to apply higher prices on the Platform than the prices listed on its own website for the same Experience Offers.

The Organizer is entitled to apply its own (booking) terms & conditions to a Reservation. However, the contents of these terms & conditions, as well as the application and enforcement thereof are the sole responsibility of the Organizer. The Organizer's terms and conditions shall not conflict with any provision of these Terms and Conditions, and the provisions of these Terms and Conditions shall prevail in case of such conflict. Efoil-tour reserves its right to reject the applicability of an Organizer's terms & conditions or specific provisions thereof. In such case, Organizer shall either adjust its terms & conditions as to meet Efoil-tour's requirements or remove the terms & conditions from the Platform.

In case a Reservation is made through the Platform, Efoil-tour is responsible only for forwarding the relevant reservation information as submitted by the User and for sending a confirmation (email) to the User.

The Organizer acknowledges and accepts that a Reservation of the User constitutes a binding agreement between the Organizer and User. The Organizer is fully responsible for the implementation and execution of such agreement, including support services/help desk et cetera. However, the Organizer is not permitted to share its contact details with the User. Efoil-tour shall never become a party to an agreement between the Organizer and User.

In providing the Platform, Efoil-tour provides support to the Organizer's as well as to the Users. However, Efoil-tour can never be held to provide support services to any User regarding a Reservation. If Efoil-tour deems it necessary that an Organizer contacts a User regarding a Experience Offer or a Reservation, the Organizer shall immediately do so. If the Organizer's support services to Users do not meet Efoil-tour's quality standards, Efoil-tour is entitled to (temporarily) block or remove the Organizer's Account.

In case the User cancels a Reservation in accordance with the Organizer's terms and conditions, the Organizer shall notify Efoil-tour of such cancellation as soon as possible. If the Organizer fully reimburses the User for the Reservation, the commission fee (see article 5.2) shall also be reimbursed by Efoil-tour. If the Organizer does not fully refund the amount paid by the User for the Reservation, Efoil-tour shall be entitled to retain the commission fee.

In case a Reservation has been cancelled and the User has paid through the Platform, the Organizer shall also process the refund through the Platform. Efoil-tour is never responsible or liable in case the Organizer processes this refund directly to the User. The Organizer shall be liable for any loss of Efoil-tour in the event the Organizer acts contrary to the provisions of this paragraph.

If the Organizer cancels a User's Reservation due to a cause attributable to the Organizer, the Organizer shall at all times fully refund all amounts paid by the User for the Reservation. In addition, the Organizer shall compensate the User for all other costs and damages incurred in relation to the Reservation. The Organizer is never entitled to deviate from its statutory obligations regarding liability resulting from its for non-performance vis-à-vis a User.

In case the Organizer shortens the Experience Offer for any reason, the Organizer shall offer the User at least a (partial) refund, which refund is proportional to the shortened Experience Offer.

If the Organizer has failed to deliver the package as described in the list on the Website, Organizer shall offer the User at least a (partial) refund.

In other words:

"We process the offers you place on our website automatically, which makes you responsible for the correctness of the information in the offer and liable for any claims that can arise out of incorrect information. If you wish to apply your terms and conditions to agreements with users you should upload them to your account. Any of your offers accepted by the user will result in a binding contract between you and the user, and failures could result in a refund to the user. If an offer is cancelled by a user you should notify us as soon as possible."

Payment

When making a Reservation, the User shall be required to pay a deposit, which is a percentage of the total amount of the value of the Reservation. Efoil-tour shall be entitled to determine a minimum amount of a deposit to be requested from a User for a specific Reservation.

Efoil-tour shall reserve a commission fee for its services, which shall be a percentage of the total price due for a specific Reservation by a User. This commission fee will apply in case the first point of contact between the User and Organizer is through the Platform. The applicable commission percentage shall at all times be indicated to the Organizer before the Organizer publishes a Experience Offer. Efoil-tour shall be entitled to adjust the applicable commission, which it shall at all times indicated to the Organizer in advance. The Organizer shall be entitled to remove its Experience Offers and/or its Account if it does not agree with such adjusted commission.

Upon payment of a Reservation through the Platform by a User, Efoil-tour shall deduct the commission fee from this amount.

If (part of) the commission fee of Efoil-tour is paid directly to the Organizer, Efoil-tour reserves the right to withhold the amounts due and payable from future User payments the Organizer has through Efoil-tour.

For the transfer of funds paid by Users to the Organizer's bank account, Efoil-tour may incur transaction costs. Efoil-tour shall be entitled to charge such costs to the Organizer in accordance with the principles agreed with Organizer in its Account.

Efoil-tour may impose requirements in relation to the minimum balance which can be transferred to the Organizer's bank account per transaction, which requirements shall be set out on the Platform.

Efoil-tour cannot be held to make available alternative payment methods on the Platform. Since Efoil-tour is entitled to change the payment methods available on the Platform, the Organizer cannot derive any rights from the methods available at a certain moment.

Efoil-tour solely enables a User to make payment for a Reservation through its Platform. Efoil-tour engages a third party provider to carry out the actual payment and Efoil-tour has no influence on, is not involved in and is not liable for the payment of Reservation by a User to the Organizer. If and to the extent a User fails to make payment for a Reservation (in full), resolving such issue shall be the sole responsibility of the Organizer and the User – Efoil-tour shall not become a party in such dispute.

In other words:

"Use of Efoil-tour, meaning creating an account and uploading experiences, is free of charge. We charge a commission fee whenever an offer is paid for. We are in no way responsible for issues arising from payment between the user to you."

No transfer of IP Rights is constituted by these Terms and Conditions. The Organizer is solely granted a license as described in Article 3.1. The IP Rights with regard to the Platform and all materials, look-and feel and other texts, images, videos and information made available thereon, including the Website but excluding the Content, are held by Efoil-tour or its licensor(s).

All IP Rights in relation to the Content will remain vested in the Organizer.

The Agreement between the Organizer and Efoil-tour shall commence when the Organizer creates its Account.

Efoil-tour is at all times entitled to restrict the use of or terminate the Organizer's Account if there are grounds to do so according to Efoil-tour. Efoil-tour shall not become liable to pay any compensation to the Organizer in such cases. Efoil-tour shall, in particular, invoke this right if Efoil-tour is of the opinion that i) the quality of the Organizer's service towards Users is substandard, ii) if Efoil-tour receives notice or has knowledge that Content infringes upon or violates the IP Rights and/or any other rights of a third party, or iii) the Organizer violates any (other) provision of these Terms and Conditions.

In other words:

"You can terminate our agreement at any time by requesting us to delete your profile or by unpublishing your account.

Please note that some of your obligations to the users still have to be fulfilled after terminating the agreement. In case you do not live up to one or more of our terms, we are entitled to terminate or suspend your account."
