2.     Mediation in the provision of professional auto-mechanical and vehicle removal services – for the users who do not have any of the road assistance packages offered by the Company.

The Service performs the mediation referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article by connecting the users who need the service with the service providers via a mobile application and enables their communication in the manner and under the conditions contained in these Terms of Use.

Article 26

The Service contains data on business entities that are predominantly engaged in activities in the field of auto servicing, auto-mechanical services, vehicle removal services (towing services) provided by the business entities.

Article 27

The content that the Users post via the Service regardless of the content form (text, audio, video, and so on) must be accurate and correct. The User who has entered the data is solely responsible for the accuracy and correctness of the entered data. The accuracy of the entries implies that they come from a competent source and/or personal experience of the User. Correctness means grammatical, spelling, and factual correctness.

Any use of the Service, in whole or in part, which is not in compliance with these Terms of Use, will be deemed an abuse of services provided by the Company and a violation of the Terms of Use.

Article 28

The User of the road assistance package service may obtain the service only via the Service

If the User needs any of the services offered in the road assistance package, the Company will automatically assign the closest Professional via the service by using an appropriate algorithm. After confirmation by the Professional, of which the User is notified via the Service, the phone number, GPS location, and distance of the User are forwarded to the Professional. The User then receives feedback on the Professional’s distance, the expected time of arrival, and the geo-location tracking of the Professional via the Service map. The Professional can only get a GPS location as an intervention point through the Service. To exercise the right to any service from the package the User must be physically present in or next to the vehicle, no matter if the right to use the package services is linked to the User or the vehicle. Exceptionally, if the User of the road assistance package service is not able to obtain a selected service through the application section of the Service, the Company provides call center services as part of the Service available via telephone numbers from Article 6, paragraph 2. Should this be needed, such an option is automatically displayed on the application page.

If the user has no Internet access on his/her mobile device, the six-digit code or a mobile phone number will appear on the screen when initializing the Service and the User will be required to read it to the Company’s call center operator thus confirming the User’s status.

Article 29

Upon registration and each access to the Service (logging in to the Service), the Service automatically sends an SMS text message with a code consisting of six digits to the User’s mobile phone number, namely the one through which the registration was made.

By entering the correct six-digit number the User is allowed access to the Service. The User shall access the Service using only his/her access data, which implies that on the other hand he/she will not use other persons’ access data or give his/her user data to a third party. The User can inform the Company if there is a suspicion of unauthorized usage of his/her access data.

Article 30

When the request is made by the User and the circumstances indicate that a violation has occurred or is certain to occur, the Company will, taking into account the protection of personal rights, privacy, property rights, and intellectual property rights, without delay:

  • Upon reasoned request, supported by appropriate documentation, remove the content so that it not be publicly available, and keep the content for evidentiary purposes;
  • Upon competent authority request, submit data on the User whose entry violates any of the abovementioned or other rights, all in keeping with the relevant regulations.

Article 31

Within the Service the Company transmits electronic messages submitted to it by the User, but does not in any way: initiate their transmission, selects data or documents to be transmitted, excludes or changes data in the content of messages or documents, nor select the transmission recipient – Professional.

The Service determines the User’s geographic location using GPS technology and the information on the location of the Service User who needs the service is forwarded to the Professional selected by the Service using the matching algorithm, based on the distance, arrival time interval, traffic jam and availability of the Professional. After the confirmation made by the Professional, the User and the Professional – service provider enter into a direct legal relationship, and the Service in real time presents to the User the price, distance between the Professional and the User, and the anticipated time of arrival at the destination the User has specified in the application.

Article 32

The Company reserves the right to make changes, termination (temporary or permanent) of any element of the Service, and/or services it provides, as well as the content and/or entry, regardless of the author thereof, without prior approval or notification, whilst implementing good business practices.

The right to the changes from paragraph 1 of this Article does not pertain to the User’s acquired rights, namely to the active road assistance packages. The Company may alter the active road assistance package only and exclusively at the User’s request, and only when there are technical conditions for such alteration.

Article 33

All coordinates, time stamps and deadlines presented by the Service, as well as time zone and working days, are calculated according to the relevant regulations of the respective country.

Package renewal and package upgrade

Article 34

The User can renew his/her package 30 days before the expiration of the user package validity period at the earliest, without the activation period of 72 hours, and the renewed package becomes valid after the existing package validity period has ended. Furthermore, in case the User renews the package within 30 days after the package expiration date, its validity shall start after effected payment, without the 72-hour activation period.

The package can be renewed by purchasing a new one at the point of sale, through the online store (web shop), or the application.

The User can upgrade his/her package to a wider territorial or service coverage at any time through the application or by sending a written request to the e-mail address support@vozzi.app. The upgrade does not extend the package validity period, namely, the package is not renewed. The period of validity of such an upgrade shall be until the expiration of the period of the valid package. 

Article 35

The User can upgrade his/her package at any time during the validity period unless any service from the existing/active package has been used. The upgrade does not influence the period of the existing/active package validity period, that is, the validity remains tied to the existing/active package, not the upgrade.

The User can choose to upgrade all existing road assistance packages through the application or at the point of sale. If the User experiences complications during the upgrading process, he/she may contact Customer Support Service at the e-mail addresses info@vozzi.app and support@vozzi.app and send a request for package upgrade in writing. The Customer Support Service shall notify the User about the completed package upgrade via e-mail.

The upgrade is enabled exclusively on the User’s territory and is not valid if the User subsequently pays for and upgrades the package abroad. Such cases will be considered abuse and the Company reserves the right not to accept the upgrade.

If the User who is abroad requires services which are not included in its active package, the Company can organize transportation to the country where the User has activated the package, in which case the costs fall on the user. Namely, in response to his request, the User will be presented with the costs and after obtaining written approval from the User, such a service will be provided.

Article 36

In case the User wants to purchase a new package, and the status of the existing one is “partly used”, the User is required to deactivate the existing package for the new one to become active. The User is not allowed to have two active packages simultaneously.

The process of deactivating the partly used existing package described in paragraph 1 of this Article can be done only once in a calendar year; and during package deactivation, the User should confirm whether he/she agrees with the Terms of Use (by clicking on the confirmation option, that appears on the screen), after which deactivated package is deleted. The opportunity to purchase and activate the new road assistance package is gained by deleting the package.

Article 37

When paying using VISA, MasterCard, and Maestro payment cards the User pays the calculated amount while the transaction costs (bank commission) are borne by the Company. The security of data during purchase is guaranteed by the payment cards processor. Payment card data are at no time available to our Service or the Company. In the event of refunding the User who effected the payment by using payment cards, regardless of the reason for refund, the Company is under obligation to make the refund exclusively through VISA, EC/MC, and Maestro payment methods, meaning that the bank will, at the request of the Company, refund to the cardholder’s account. The text “VOZZI service” will appear on the bank statement.

When paying in cash to the Professional, the User pays the calculated amount according to the invoice provided by the Professional.

Article 38

The Company reserves the right to make changes to the Price List and the packages, with timely notification via the Internet and by observing good business practices.

To provide better services, we require the User to evaluate every service, by using marks from 1 to 5 (where 1 is the lowest and 5 is the highest mark) as ratings given to the Professionals they contacted.

The Service automatically makes a calculation and shows the Company the average user rating for each Professional individually.

The Company reserves the discretionary right to cancel the assigned rating, as well as the right not to cancel the rating in any particular situation.

V – ENTRY AND MODIFICATION OF DATA IN THE SERVICE

User registration and logging in to the Service

Article 41

A visitor is a person who accesses the Service via the Internet, as referred to in these Terms of Use, without logging in to or registering with the Service. The visitors may familiarize themselves with the entire content available in the Service, without paying any fee.

The Users of the services that are provided by the Company through the Service are considered registered users.

The User’s registration as well as all the content (mobile phone number; user address; user e-mail address; make, model and year of production of the vehicle; VIN) that the User posts on the Service is not moderated or modified or in any other way affected by the Company, therefore the User has the sole responsibility and bears all legal consequences that can arise from the content placed on the Service.

With each login to the Service, the User gets access to his/her account on the Service and the possibility of using the Service which the User can adjust according to available Service options.

Change of data in the Service and package deactivation

Article 42

The User can, without any explanation of notification, at any given time, perform changes relating to:

  • e-mail address of the registered user;
  • data on vehicle description (make, model, and year of production);
  • data on vehicle registration numbers.

The private User cannot transfer the user account or the road assistance package to someone else’s name, while the business User can if such a package is selected, otherwise the business vehicles are linked via their VIN.

The User can, without any explanation and at any point in time, revoke his/her user status by submitting the request for deleting the user account if there is no activated road assistance package.

Modification of vehicle data

Since the roadside assistance package is linked to a person and not to a vehicle, it is possible to change vehicle data but not while the vehicle/user is abroad, more precisely, outside the country of residence/registration.

Edit user data

It is also not possible to change the user of the roadside assistance package, so instead of the person to whom the roadside assistance package is managed, another person is registered.

Change of phone number

If the phone number specified during registration/activation of the roadside assistance package changes, the new activation period from the moment the phone number is changed is 5 days, which means that the package will be active after 10 days from the day the phone number was changed.

Treatment of the content placed on the Service

Article 43

Placing content on the Service in no way restricts the User to post or publicly disclose the same content elsewhere. The User can post different content at the same time. The User can, without any explanation of notification, at any time, delete or modify his/her posted content. The Company will momentarily delete or modify such content, except for the content located in backups that are generated systemically and whose content cannot be affected.

By posting content on the Service, the User unconditionally and irrevocably authorizes the Company to transfer the content to an indefinite number of persons to provide the Service, and also to remove the content without prior or subsequent notice or explanation.

The Users reserve all copyrights and related rights to the content that they have created. The Users guarantee that they are the owners and/or users of all essential copyrights on the entire content as well as on all its parts that they have posted on the Service. The Users who have posted the content are solely responsible for every potential breach of copyright or related rights, and other intellectual property rights, which violation may be the result of Users’ doing or failing to do.

Cancellation of the package by the User

Article 44

In case the road assistance package is activated, the User may cancel it without any explanation within 15 days from activating the package if no service included in the package has been used. In this case, the package will be canceled and the money reimbursed to the User, with the reduction of bank transfer costs. If any of the services have been used at the User’s request, the package will be canceled without the refund so that the user can activate a new road assistance package.

The User may request the termination of the user package before the expiration of its validity period, by sending such a request to the Company (request for package deactivation) via e-mail to the addresses info@vozzi.app and support@vozzi.app.

In the event of refunding the User who has previously made the payment by using a payment card, in part or in full, and regardless of the reason for refund, the Company is under obligation to make the refund exclusively through VISA, EC/MC, and Maestro payment methods, meaning that the bank will, at the request of the Company, make the refund to the cardholder’s account.
