Acciona Recarga S.L. shall not be liable, either indirectly or subsidiarily, for damages of any kind arising from the use and contracting of third-party content and services on the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform, or for the lack of legality, reliability, usefulness, truthfulness, accuracy, completeness, and timeliness thereof, except in cases of wilful misconduct or gross negligence. By way of example, and in no case limited to, it shall not be liable for damages of any kind arising from: a) the infringement of intellectual and industrial property rights and the defective fulfillment or breach of contractual commitments acquired by third parties; b) the performance of acts of unfair competition and/or illegal or misleading advertising; c) the inadequacy and disappointment of expectations of the Services and content of third parties; d) faults and defects of any kind in the services and content of third parties provided through the Acciona Recarga S.L.

The exemption from liability indicated in the preceding paragraphs shall apply both in the event that Acciona Recarga S.L. has no actual knowledge that the activity or information stored is unlawful or damages the property or rights of a third party liable for compensation, and in the event that it does have such knowledge but acts diligently to remove the data and content or make access to them impossible.
The exemption from liability shall not apply in cases (and to the extent) where it is not permitted by applicable regulations. In particular, if the Services of the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform do not comply with the Contract, the User shall be entitled to demand that they be brought into compliance, in accordance with current regulations.
4.4. Acciona Recarga S.L. provides Users (who are specially authorized to do so) with technical linking devices and search tools that allow Users to access websites owned by other entities (text links).
The duly authorized User acknowledges and accepts that the use of the contents of the linked web pages will be at their sole risk and responsibility and exempts Acciona Recarga S.L. from any responsibility for the technical availability of the linked web pages, the quality, reliability, accuracy, and/or veracity of the Services, information, elements, and/or content that the User may access on them and in the search directories included in the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform.

4.5. Acciona Recarga S.L. does not guarantee that Users of the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform will use its content and/or Services in accordance with the law, morality, public order, or these Terms and Conditions and, where applicable, any Specific Terms and Conditions that may apply. Likewise, it does not guarantee the veracity and accuracy, completeness, and/or authenticity of the data and/or information provided by Users. In particular, the User declares that they are aware and accept that Acciona Recarga S.L. does not physically visit or carry out any checks on the electric vehicle charging points advertised on the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform, and therefore the information provided to it by Users cannot be verified by Acciona Recarga S.L..
Acciona Recarga S.L. shall not be liable, indirectly or subsidiarily, for damages of any kind arising from the use of the Services and content available on the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform by Users, or that may arise from the lack of truthfulness, accuracy, and/or authenticity of the data or information provided by Users, or from the impersonation of a third party by a User in any kind of action through the Platform. By way of example, but not limited to, ACCIONA Recarga shall not be indirectly or subsidiarily liable for: a) the content, information, opinions, and statements of any User or third parties or entities that are communicated or displayed through the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform; b) damages caused to third parties arising from the User's use of the Services and content of the Platform; c) damages caused by the lack of truthfulness, accuracy, or incorrectness of the identity of users and any information they provide or make available to other users;d) damages arising from infringements by any user that affect the rights of another user or third parties, including copyrights, trademarks, patents, confidential information, and/or any other intellectual and industrial property rights. The exemption from liability shall not apply in cases (and to the extent) where it is not permitted by applicable law.
Acciona Recarga S.L. provides Users with a system for rating and reporting incidents. This allows Users to rate each other and report breaches. This system will be directly accessible from the panel that the driver uses to manage the reservation. When the ChargeUser selects the ‘report’ option, the ChargeOwner's virtual wallet is frozen (so that they cannot transfer their virtual earnings to their bank account), remaining in that state until an Acciona Recarga S.L. operator makes a decision regarding the reported incident.
A User who is reported (for non-compliance) will be evaluated by Acciona Recarga S.L. staff and may be expelled from the Platform, prohibiting them from accessing it in the future, and may be deprived of the right to transfer the earnings accumulated in the virtual wallet to their bank account to the extent that such breach causes financial damage to another User or to Acciona Recarga S.L., with the surplus (if any) being refunded. In any case, Acciona Recarga S.L. will notify the User of the decision to exclude or suspend them and will offer them the opportunity to clarify the facts and circumstances that have led to the breach of these Terms and Conditions and/or the Specific Terms and Conditions.
Furthermore, reporting incidents incorrectly and abusively will be punished in the same way, with Acciona Recarga S.L. having the power to make such decisions, without prejudice to any legal action it may take in accordance with current regulations.
5. SERVICES AND CONTRACTING BETWEEN USERS THROUGH THE ACCIONA RECARGA S.L. PLATFORM.
5.1 ChargeUser: how to request reservations
Once registered, the User may request a reservation for any parking space that interests them, from among those available on the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform, following the procedure indicated.
In order to request a reservation, the ChargeUser must select the payment method and enter a credit card into the system, which will be verified in accordance with section 5.1.1.
5.1.1 Verification
This consists of a liquidity check, expressly consented to by the User, called “pre-auth,” which is performed the first time a card is registered, by automatically charging and refunding EUR 1 to the account underlying the card in question. It will appear as a charge, although it is merely a security block. That euro will be immediately refunded, although due to banking operations it may take up to seven (7) business days to be unblocked.
If the ChargeOwner confirms the reservation, the total amount of the rental and the Acciona Recarga S.L. commission will be blocked on the ChargeUser's card for transfer to the ChargeOwner's virtual wallet once the rental has been completed without incident, within the applicable time limits for each type of rental.
The ChargeUser has 24 hours to report an incident, in accordance with the terms of section 4.5, and, where applicable, to be eligible for a refund, in accordance with our Cancellation Policy, which is detailed in section 5.6 below.
5.2. ChargeOwner: how to publish a parking space
You may publish advertisements to rent parking spaces you own to ChargeUsers, after registering as a User and following the procedure indicated on the Platform.
The advertisement published by the ChargeOwner will remain on Acciona Recarga S.L. indefinitely, until the User deactivates it (or until it is removed by an Acciona Recarga S.L. operator in the event of expulsion from the Platform, in accordance with these Terms and Conditions).
Acciona Recarga S.L. reserves the right to remove or suspend the advertisement published by the ChargeOwner at any time, in order to ensure that the content of the advertisement complies with the terms and conditions of these Terms and Conditions, which will be notified to the User through the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform.
ChargeOwners accumulate earnings from renting their parking space in a ‘virtual wallet’ and can transfer these earnings to their bank account free of charge (in order to make the transfer, the User must provide the IBAN and BIC/SWIFT codes corresponding to their bank account), within the time frames corresponding to the type of rental, in accordance with the specific conditions agreed between the ChargeOwner and Acciona Recarga S.L..
ChargeOwners may also become ChargeUsers and rent parking spaces within the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform with the balance available in their virtual wallet, if it is sufficient to cover the rental price and Acciona Recarga S.L.'s commission.
5.3. Acciona Recarga S.L. commission.
Acciona Recarga S.L. charges a commission for its intermediary services. The amount of the commission will depend on the type of service contracted and may be subject to change due to promotions or discounts, which the ChargeUser acknowledges and accepts, as they will be able to clearly see the amount of commission applied to each reservation before confirming it.
The Acciona Recarga S.L. commission is paid by the ChargeUser except in certain cases of cancellation by the ChargeOwner, as detailed in section 5.6 below, and its amount is clearly identified in the breakdown that the ChargeUser receives immediately before formalizing the reservation.
5.4. Nature and scope of the service provided by Acciona Recarga S.L.. Disclaimer
Acciona Recarga S.L. only provides an intermediary service, which puts Users (parking space providers and seekers) in contact with each other, providing them with a payment system between them through the Virtual POS gateway.
Acciona Recarga S.L. does not intend to be a source of advice or a means of establishing a professional or any other type of relationship.
Acciona Recarga S.L. will endeavor to provide the updates, including security updates, necessary to ensure the proper and secure operation of the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform. If the User does not download the updates, the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform may not function properly or may be exposed to computer vulnerabilities. It is the User's obligation to keep the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform up to date. Acciona Recarga S.L. shall not be liable for any errors, lack of functionality, or security breaches due to the User's failure to download updates within five days of the update becoming available, except in cases of gross negligence or wilful misconduct.
Consequently, the User, whether a driver or owner, acknowledges and accepts that any contractual relationship that may be formalized with persons contacted (or who contact them) through the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform is understood to be solely and exclusively between the Users.
Acciona Recarga S.L. is not responsible for users complying with what has been agreed on the Platform and, therefore, is not liable for any damages that may be caused to each other. The User accepts that Acciona Recarga S.L. has no responsibility whatsoever for damages of any kind caused as a result of their negotiations, conversations, and/or contractual or non-contractual relationships with Users contacted through the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform. Users of the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform are not considered entrepreneurs, and therefore consumer regulations do not apply to the relationship between Users.
In any case, the User agrees to compensate Acciona Recarga S.L., immediately upon request, for the amount of any expenses, costs, damages, and losses of any kind (including attorneys' and solicitors' fees, even if their intervention is not mandatory) incurred by Acciona Recarga S.L. as a result of any claim relating to the publication or communication to the public of the advertisement or its content, or to its contracting, including those based on violation of intellectual and industrial property rights, slander, defamation, breach of confidentiality, disclosure of secrets, breach of any legal or regulatory duty, and/or illegal, false, or misleading advertising.
5.5. Relationship between owner and driver
Users (owners of parking spaces and drivers of electric vehicles) use the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform as a tool to enter into agreements between themselves regarding the rental of private parking spaces. Breaches of the agreements reached between Users will, in addition to other consequences that may arise from applicable legislation, result in a penalty in favor of Acciona Recarga S.L. in the event of cancellation, as detailed in our Cancellation Policy, section 5.6.
Acciona Recarga S.L. advises its users to comply with the applicable tax regulations in Spain (in particular, the impact and payment of VAT on the rental price, where applicable), although Acciona Recarga S.L. is not responsible for any breach of tax obligations by its Users.
Acciona Recarga S.L. reserves the right to intervene, modify, and rectify conversations that its Users maintain through the communication mechanisms provided on the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform (primarily the chat). Users acknowledge and accept that Acciona Recarga S.L. staff may access the content of the chat at any time and that said staff will monitor and analyze said conversations when they deem it appropriate, in order to verify compliance with these Terms and Conditions. Acciona Recarga S.L. also reserves the right to delete and suspend the content of advertisements and reservations made by Users in order to verify compliance with these Terms and Conditions.
Acciona Recarga S.L. makes every effort to verify that the parking spaces published in the system are accurate, however, in no case is it responsible for the accuracy of the data entered by the ChargeOwner, beyond assuming the management of any refunds that may be applicable in accordance with the provisions of section 5.6 of the Cancellation Policy below.
5.6. Cancellation policy
Acciona Recarga S.L. provides its Users with a cancellation policy whose purpose is to regulate the consequences of cancellations or discrepancies between them, with the aim of ensuring that their interactions are of the highest possible quality and reliability.
The penalty and refund scheme in the event of cancellations is as follows:
If canceled before the rental begins:
– Reservation created 10 minutes ago or less and/or more than one hour before the start of the reservation: there will be no cost to either party.
– Reservation created more than 10 minutes ago and less than one hour before the start of the reservation: penalty of 1 euro.
If canceled after the rental has begun, there will be no cost to either party.
The User-owner (ChargeOwner) will charge the amount corresponding to the time and/or kilowatts consumed by the User-driver (ChargeUser), with Acciona Recarga S.L. retaining only the amount corresponding to its commission.
5.7. Service Rating
At the end of each reservation, the User may rate the recharge upon completion, if they so wish. Acciona Recarga S.L. guarantees that only Users who have used the Services may make such a rating. It is expressly prohibited for the ChargeOwner to encourage a specific rating from the ChargeUser by any means (including, but not limited to, present or future discounts, gifts, compensation, etc.) outside the normal operation of the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform. Likewise, it is expressly prohibited to request any type of consideration from the ChargeUser or to threaten a negative rating in order to obtain any consideration (including, but not limited to, present or future discounts, gifts) outside the normal operation of the Acciona Recarga S.L. Platform. Failure to comply with this section may result in the suspension or termination of the User's account.
5.8. Parameters for classifying ChargeOwners' Services
ChargeOwners' Services are classified solely on the basis of the search parameters selected by the ChargeUser. The User may select one or more of the following parameters: dates, charging speed, plug type, status, and price, with no parameter having greater relative importance than any other.
6. RIGHT OF EXCLUSION AND/OR SUSPENSION.
Acciona Recarga S.L. reserves the right to suspend, deny or withdraw access to its Platform and/or Services offered, at its own request or that of a third party, to those Users who fail to comply with these Conditions and/or the Specific Conditions that, where applicable, may be applicable.
