Choose the type of subscription they want to contract: Plan 1: PREMIUM, Plan 2: BASIC,

Optionally, indicate if they wish to receive commercial information about THE COMPANY's services
Finally, the Client must complete the contracting process, accepting the above, by clicking the submit button.
3.1.2 VALIDATION PROCESS: With the provided and submitted data, THE COMPANY verifies that the Company meets the necessary conditions to be included on the website and has the necessary certificates according to the service description.
3.1.3. WEB REGISTRATION: After validation, the WEB REGISTRATION is created, generating a company profile on the website, displayed in the order of arrival in the “Companies” section on the corresponding sequential page. A communication is sent to the client to validate their company profile design, and a link is sent to proceed with the payment of the chosen option at the time of Registration (point 3.1.1). Additionally, the CLIENT is requested to send descriptions of the products to be advertised, including a photo and description.
3.1.4 Web registration implies the start of the Service by THE COMPANY. The client has a 14-day trial period with provisional registration in the requested Plan. They also have those 14 days to make the corresponding payment through the provided link. After the 14-day trial period, if payment is not made, the company will be deregistered, understanding that the company ultimately does not accept its inclusion in the Directory or “GoSellFood Online Market.”
3.1.5. After the 14-day trial period and provided that the Client has made the PAYMENT, the final registration of the Company in the selected category is confirmed; if the Client has requested any changes to the design of the advertisement or their profile, a new email is sent to the company for the final validation of the advertisements. If the Company does not respond within 48 hours, the advertisement will be deemed accepted as created.
3.1.6 Both the company profile and the products will be advertised as chosen at the time of subscription and registration, until the end of the 3-month subscription period, and will enjoy the advertising that GSF deems appropriate on other platforms to attract qualified traffic.
4. Current Subscribers
These general terms will also apply to current subscribers who will be duly notified (via email or telephone), specifically informing them that from October 1, 2022, the cost of remaining on our GSF website is €150 plus VAT per quarter – the minimum basic subscription – paid in advance. Current subscribers wishing to continue advertising their products will have, once the contracted and current quarterly period has ended, a 50% discount on any of the options chosen, on the prices described above in the service plans (Premium or Basic), during the first quarter of contracting, as a thank you for their trust in the website launch.
Furthermore, a discount code valid until the end of this year 2023, called “NewWeb2023,” is established, which fully subsidizes the minimum basic subscription.
It is noted that the following procedure is a MANDATORY CONDITION to remain on the GSF Website:
1) Accept the current modified GTC dated today, and also,
2) Proceed with the PAYMENT of €150 – minimum basic subscription – per quarter in advance mentioned above, to continue being a member of the GoSellFood website, from 1/10/2022, notwithstanding the 50% reduction indicated above during the first quarter of contracting or the use of the discount code detailed in the following section.
3) Mention when accepting the GTC, in the comment section, the discount code “Newweb2023” that qualifies for the 100% subscription subsidy. This subsidy is subject to GSF's approval.
With the email notification or phone call, the subscriber will be duly notified. Therefore, if the subscriber does not respond to the notification, not accepting the new GTC, it will be understood that they do not wish to continue on the GSF website, and all their data will be removed from the GoSellFood website from 1/10/2022 or the end of the contracted quarterly period when this ends after October 1, 2022.
5. ACCEPTANCE AND WARRANTIES:
Upon registration, the Client must check the acceptance box for the GTC and Privacy Policy and also complete the registration form to publish the ad or link to the Company on the Website, providing the information requested in the form.
By sending photographs of their products and catalog to THE COMPANY, the Client grants THE COMPANY all intellectual property exploitation rights on them for free, to publish them on the Portal while the contract lasts, so THE COMPANY can reproduce, transform (including, but not limited to, adding watermarks or other), distribute, and publicly communicate them (including making them available to the public) through the Portal and under the agreed conditions. THE COMPANY may exercise the exploitation rights of the photographs as it deems most convenient and may even transfer or assign them for the agreed purposes.
The Client guarantees that they fully own the rights assigned to THE COMPANY under this clause and that THE COMPANY's use and exploitation of them will not violate any intellectual property rights, image rights, or – in general – any other rights belonging to any third parties, undertaking to indemnify and hold THE COMPANY harmless in case of infringement.
Advertisement publication rules
Generally, the publication of advertisements by the Client on the Portal will be subject to the following publication rules:
Duplicate ads will not be published.
Ads with photos containing watermarks from any other website or with logos or contact details (phone numbers, emails, URLs, etc.) of the Client or third parties will not be published.
Ads with photos that have nothing to do with the ad or that do not meet a minimum quality standard will not be published.
Ads with premium-rate contact phone numbers (80x) will not be published.
Ads for any product, service, or information that may be contrary to the Law, the established legal order, morality, Public Order, or the Conduct or Style Code of THE COMPANY, defined for using the Website, will not be published.
Likewise, the publication of advertisements on the Portal is only for Clients that are companies, with such publication being limited to one company and subject to prior validation of the Client's phone number, identification data, and the BIO certification of their products:
Client's phone number validation is completely free for the Client.
Client's phone number validation only needs to be done once unless the Client changes the number.
The ad will be removed from the Management Area if the phone number is not validated within three (3) days of the ad's insertion.
Compliance with publication regulations: THE COMPANY reserves the right, if necessary, to reject or modify an advertisement to ensure it complies with the established publication rules.
Liability Limitation
Client Representations and Warranties/Indemnifications
Right to Reject the Ad by THE COMPANY
Payment Conditions
Clients must make the payment for the contracted Services through bank transfer, direct debit, or credit or debit card, depending on the conditions agreed with their sales representative at each moment.
Credit or debit card
Payment is accepted with the following credit or debit cards: Visa, MasterCard, American Express. The bank details entered are encrypted and securely transmitted to the bank's servers using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) security system, so the Provider does not know or record these details during the payment operation and has no access to the Client's accounts associated with these credit or debit cards, nor can it make charges to these cards.
For active subscriptions that need to be renewed, if payment is not made as indicated and within the agreed deadlines, the Client company's user will be deactivated, as well as all ads and other information associated with the Client's products on the Website, which will automatically stop appearing on the Portal.
Legal Right to Withdraw from the Service: According to article 103. m) of the Consolidated Text of the General Law for Consumers and Users, it is informed that the right to withdraw within fourteen (14) days in the purchase of goods and services corresponds only to those acting in the market and acquiring them as natural persons, consumers, or final users. Therefore, the user will automatically lose the right to withdraw as soon as the Service is initiated as a Company. In this regard, the contracting and – if applicable – activation of the Service will involve the initiation of such Services and the loss of consumer status with the indicated effect regarding the right to withdraw.
Returns and Liability: In cases of incidents resulting in THE COMPANY's liability – see liability limitation – or where the Client requests a refund and THE COMPANY accepts the request for payment of the indemnity amount or refund of the price paid, it will be made through the POS to the credit or debit card or the bank account used by the Client for the service contracting and payment.
Miscellaneous
Applicable Law and Competent Jurisdiction
All matters related to the Portal and these GTC are governed by the laws of the Kingdom of Spain, and any conflict over them will be submitted to the jurisdiction of the user's domicile if they are a natural person consumer. However, if the Client is a Company, to resolve any conflict or discrepancy over the application, execution, compliance, and interpretation of these GTC, the Parties will submit, expressly waiving any other competent jurisdiction, exclusively to the Courts and Tribunals of the city of Barcelona (Spain).
In case the user is domiciled outside Spain, THE COMPANY and the Client will submit, expressly waiving any other jurisdiction, to the Courts and Tribunals of the city of Barcelona (Spain).
