1. General

These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as the 'General Terms') aim to define the terms and conditions for the provision of services by Fiveoffices (the 'Service'), whether through its website www.fiveoffices.com or by any other means (hereinafter collectively referred to as the 'Fiveoffices Platform'). In case of conflict between these terms in English language and the terms in French language, the terms in French language prevail.

The Service is an intermediary and management service, known as an information society service, facilitating the connection and management of Users who publish, search for, offer, reserve, manage, and/or use services related to the provision of workspace.

Fiveoffices is neither a real estate broker, nor a travel agency, nor an organiser or retailer of travel packages within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2015/2302. Fiveoffices does not act as an agent in any capacity for a User or Member. Similarly, Fiveoffices does not impose any exclusivity obligations on Host or Guest Users.

The Service is accessible via the Fiveoffices Platform. Fiveoffices reserves the right to transfer the Service to any other internet address URL.

Any access and/or use of the Fiveoffices Platform and/or the Service implies acceptance and compliance with all the terms of these General Terms.

By accessing and/or using the Fiveoffices Platform and/or the Service, the User agrees to abide by and be bound by the General Terms. Thus, these constitute a contract for intermediary services between the User and Fiveoffices.

In the event that the User does not wish to accept all or part of these General Terms, the User is requested to refrain from using the Fiveoffices Platform and/or the Service.

Fiveoffices reserves the right to modify the General Terms, in whole or in part, at any time. The User must periodically check the website www.fiveoffices.com or any other website designated by Fiveoffices to review the applicable General Terms.

The continued use of the Fiveoffices Platform and/or the Service, including after modifications to the General Terms, signifies the full and complete acceptance of these General Terms and thus constitutes a binding legal agreement between the User and Fiveoffices.

It is clarified that express acceptance of these General Terms will be required: (i) for Hosts on the occasion of any posting of a Host Offer on the Fiveoffices Platform, and (ii) for Guests on the occasion of any interaction with a Host and/or acceptance of a Host Offer.

Please read the General Terms carefully before accessing and/or using the Fiveoffices Platform and/or the Service, as well as before entering into an Agreement.

For the purposes of these Terms, it is specified that:

User Content refers to information transmitted and published by the User of the Service in the various sections of the Service and/or the Fiveoffices Platform.
Agreement refers to a document that officially binds two Users of the Service in a commercial relationship, with all conditions described in said Agreement.

Host Offer refers to offers of services related to the provision of workspace and/or office rentals made by 'Host' Users.
User refers to any person who uses all or part of the Fiveoffices Platform and/or the Service. The Service distinguishes two categories of Users:
Host: User who publishes and offers services related to the provision of workspace.
Guest: User who searches for, books, and/or uses Host Offers.
Payment Platform: Stripe payment platform which manages payment for the service between the Host and the Guest, and from which Service Fees are deducted for Fiveoffices.

5. Prices

The use of the Fiveoffices service is free for Guest Users.

Host Users who use the Service to publish or offer one or more Host Offers agree, under these General Terms and Conditions, to pay fees ("Service Fees") to Fiveoffices in exchange for the provision of all or part of the Service.

Service Fees are due in the event of a Contract concluded between a Guest User and a Host User. They are calculated based on the duration of the Contract up to a limit of 24 months, including renewals. Service Fees are only due for up to 12 months when the Host User is a professional office rental provider (e.g., managed offices, business centers, coworking spaces).

Service Fees are also due if the service rendered is limited exclusively to the disclosure by Fiveoffices of a Guest's or Host's identity, and a Contract aiming for a similar objective is signed between this Guest and Host following this disclosure.

Service Fees are billable at the time of the Contract signing and payable at the time of the first monthly payment made by the Guest.

The Service Fees are as follows:

10% of the total value excluding taxes of the Contract when the Host pays the entire Service Fee no later than the first monthly payment made by the Guest, for a Contract of a duration strictly less than or equal to 6 months.
8% of the total value excluding taxes of the Contract when the Host pays the entire Service Fee no later than the first monthly payment made by the Guest, for a Contract of a duration greater than 6 months.
12% of the total value excluding taxes of the Contract when the Host pays the Service Fees monthly over the entire duration of the Contract, for a Contract of a duration strictly greater than 6 months. Monthly payment of Service Fees is not possible in the following cases: for a Contract of a duration less than or equal to 6 months, or when Users do not use the Payment Platform provided by the platform.

Service Fees are subject to the application of taxes, in accordance with current legislation (such as VAT), which will be added to the Service Fees if applicable. The Host User must provide their Host Offer under the conditions and at the price specified in their Host Offer published on the Fiveoffices Platform.

The Host agrees to pay Fiveoffices the Service Fees upon signing a Contract, based on the price of the Host Offer. The Service Fees are due in full by the Host upon signing the Contract. Service Fees are also due if the service rendered is limited exclusively to the disclosure of a potential Guest's or Host's identity, and a Contract that aims or seeks to substantially achieve the same objective is signed directly or indirectly as a result of this disclosure. Service Fees are due on the actual price charged by the Host, which must correspond to the Host Offer. If the actual price deviates from the price of the Host Offer published on the Fiveoffices Platform, and more generally if there is a breach of the User's good faith towards Fiveoffices in the use and/or payment of its Service, Fiveoffices may charge an additional Service Fee accordingly, accompanied by a conventional penalty of ten (10) times the total Service Fee due to Fiveoffices for the service rendered.

When using the Payment Platform, Service Fees are directly deducted from the amount billed and paid by the Guest through the Payment Platform and are directly remitted to Fiveoffices.

In the event of non-payment of the amounts due within the allotted time, late payment penalties are equal to three times the current legal annual interest rate calculated from the due date until the full payment of the price. In addition to these compensations, a fixed compensation for collection costs in case of late payment of €120 is added.

If the Guest terminates their Contract before its initially stated term in said Contract and the Host accepts this early termination, Fiveoffices will refund the Host the amount equal to the difference between the initially billed Service Fees and the Service Fees that should have been billed based on the performed duration of the Contract. To be eligible for this refund, the Host must inform Fiveoffices of the early termination of the Contract by sending the signed early termination letter by the Host and the Guest by email to [email protected] within a period of 30 (thirty) calendar days from the date on which the Host became aware of the early termination. Any information received after this 30-day period will not entitle the User to any refund whatsoever from Fiveoffices.

6. Assistance with Contracting and Payments between Guest and Host

Fiveoffices offers Host and Guest Users on the Fiveoffices Platform a model service contract that can be freely entered into directly on the Platform. This contract is provided to facilitate the sale of services from the Host to the Guest and thus facilitate an agreement between the Users.

Users are free to use or not use, complete, modify, or use their own contract as they wish. The contract model is provided for reference. Users are encouraged to carefully review and ensure that it aligns with the specific nature of the business relationship they intend to establish. In case of uncertainty, Fiveoffices advises Users to seek legal counsel.

If the contract model offered by Fiveoffices is not used, the User, whether Host or Guest, agrees to provide Fiveoffices with the signed contract via email at [email protected], or by any other means specified by Fiveoffices, including its key terms, such as the total price of the Host's Offer, its exact duration, and the list of services included in the Contract. This communication must take place within five (5) business days following the contract's conclusion, and the resulting invoice must be settled within ten (10) business days after its issuance.

It is understood that if the User fails to communicate the signed Contract to Fiveoffices within five (5) business days following the contract's conclusion, the Service Fees will be calculated based on the price of the Host's Offer as indicated on the Fiveoffices Platform and on a flat basis of 24 months, which the Host User expressly accepts. It is also understood that if the contract is not communicated to Fiveoffices by either the Host User or the Guest User within ten (10) business days following the contract's conclusion, the Guest User becomes jointly responsible with the Host User for the payment of the service fees, based on a flat basis of 24 months and the price of the Host's Offer as indicated on the Fiveoffices Platform, which the Guest User expressly accepts.

Fiveoffices may offer Host and Guest Users access to the Payments Platform. This platform facilitates payments for services between Guest and Host, as well as the payment of Service Fees. Users are free to use or not use this Payments Platform, and Fiveoffices is free to offer it to Users or not.

In the case of using the Payments Platform, the Host and Guest certify that they have read the General Terms and Conditions and the Service Conditions of the Payments Platform, acknowledge them, and agree to comply with them solely by using the Payments Platform. The General Terms and Conditions and the Service Conditions of the Payments Platform are accessible at https://stripe.com/fr/legal/ssa/fr-fr for companies residing in France, and at https://stripe.com/en-lu/legal/ssa for companies residing in other countries. These may be modified from time to time, and the User is responsible for reviewing them periodically. Fiveoffices has no responsibility in case of technical issue related to Stripe. Continued use of the Payments Platform constitutes Users' acceptance of the General Terms and Conditions and the Service Conditions as amended if applicable. The Host User acknowledges in particular that the Payments Platform will apply typically seven (7) days or more processing time for the payment of service fees paid by the Guest to the Host.'

7. Intellectual Property

The User undertakes in good faith to ensure that the Content, including their texts, information, data, videos, and images presented on the Fiveoffices Platform, accurately reflect reality and do not potentially infringe upon the legitimate interests and rights of any third party.

9. Limitation of Liability

The Fiveoffices Service is an intermediary service, part of the information society, which provides its Users with a search engine and online tools allowing Users to connect for the search, reservation, use, and operational management of Host Offers among themselves.

Fiveoffices does not guarantee the conclusion of contractual relationships between Users.

Therefore, Fiveoffices cannot be held liable, whether in tort or contract, for the conclusion, non-conclusion, performance, or termination of any contractual relationship between Users connected through the Fiveoffices Platform.

The information on the Service comes from Users, and Fiveoffices cannot guarantee the accuracy or relevance of this information.

Any User who discovers or disputes the accuracy or legality of all or part of an offer presented on the Fiveoffices Platform by a User is encouraged to report it to Fiveoffices.

Therefore, Fiveoffices cannot be held liable for the use of information and Content published by Users on the Fiveoffices Platform under the Service. The User is solely responsible for the proper use and accuracy of the information made available on the Fiveoffices Platform.

Furthermore, the User agrees to indemnify and hold Fiveoffices harmless from all harmful consequences directly or indirectly related to the use of the Fiveoffices Platform and arising from or in connection with the use of the Service by the User, including in the case of disputes in or out of court or other claims for damages by any other User or third party against Fiveoffices resulting from actions, errors, or faults committed by the User.

The information on the Service contains hyperlinks to websites published and/or managed by third parties. As no control is exercised over these external resources, the User acknowledges that Fiveoffices assumes no responsibility for the provision of these resources and cannot be held liable for their content.

Furthermore, FIVEOFFICES TAKES NO RESPONSIBILITY AND HAS NO OBLIGATION REGARDING PAYMENTS OF RENT, FEES, OR ANY OTHER REMUNERATION OR ANY CLAIM OR DAMAGE OR COMPENSATION OF ANY KIND FROM ONE USER TO ANOTHER. THE USE OF THE SERVICES DOES NOT CREATE ANY OBLIGATION FOR FIVEOFFICES TO COVER OR COMPENSATE FOR ANY FAILURE OF A SERVICE PROVIDER USER TOWARDS ANOTHER UNDER THE CONTRACT SIGNED BETWEEN THEM. FIVEOFFICES IS NOT A PARTY TO SUCH A CONTRACT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN USERS.

Fiveoffices cannot be held responsible in case of force majeure or events beyond its control.

USERS REMAIN SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DETERMINATION, QUALIFICATION, AND CONTRACTUALIZATION OF THEIR RELATIONSHIP RESULTING FROM THE CONNECTION FACILITATED BY THE SERVICE. FIVEOFFICES IS NEITHER A PARTY NOR A SIGNATORY TO ANY ASPECT GOVERNING THE CONTRACT SIGNED BETWEEN USERS AND THEIR BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP.

Purely informative models of contracts and payments are presented by Fiveoffices on the Fiveoffices Platform, which can - at the Users' exclusive choice and responsibility - serve as a template for the final contract and method of payment between Users.

Fiveoffices optionally provides Users with a third-party payment processor Stripe to facilitate transactions between Hosts and Guests. Fiveoffices is neither a payment processor, nor a bank, nor a merchant services or payment provider.

Fiveoffices cannot be held responsible for Users' use of the Payment. In particular, Fiveoffices is not responsible for processing errors, delays, unauthorised transactions, fraud, or other issues arising from the use of Stripe. Any disputes related to payment processing, including but not limited to refunds, fees, or service interruptions, will be governed by Stripe's Terms of Service and General Conditions.

Fiveoffices makes no representation or warranty regarding the uninterrupted or error-free processing of transactions via Stripe and its platform and shall not be held liable for any damages resulting from transaction errors or interruptions.

Users are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data transmitted to Stripe and the resulting transactions. Fiveoffices shall not be held liable for any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions in the data transmitted by Users. Users agree to indemnify, defend, and hold Fiveoffices and its representatives and affiliates harmless from any claim, liability, damage, loss, or expense, including legal fees, arising from any data transmission, action, claim, or dispute related to the use of the Stripe platform.

In no event shall Fiveoffices be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of data, or business interruption, resulting from the processing of payments by Stripe.

Fiveoffices reminds that any situation has material and legal specificities that should be verified either by the legal department of each User or by their external advisors.

It is the Users' responsibility to verify that they have the appropriate quality and right to commit to the offers presented on the Fiveoffices Platform. Any standard contract presented by Fiveoffices on the Fiveoffices Platform is only for informational purposes and needs to be adapted to the specific conditions of the desired and freely agreed relationship between Users.

Fiveoffices cannot in any way be held responsible vis-à-vis any User for the use, in whole or in part, of these contract templates.

Fiveoffices cannot under any circumstances be held responsible towards a User or a third party for the referencing, booking, use, or provision of a workspace when such referencing, booking, use, and provision are contractually limited or prohibited. Therefore, the Host must ensure on their own that they do not violate any agreements, laws, or existing rules. For instance, they must ensure they do not breach any existing contracts related to their Host Offer.

Fiveoffices cannot under any circumstances be held responsible towards a User for the lack of solvency or failure to provide any form of insurance or bank guarantee. Users are solely responsible for obtaining information, verifying, and subscribing to risk coverages and payment guarantees determined by law and/or negotiated conditions set by the Users themselves.

Fiveoffices cannot under any circumstances be held responsible towards a User for the reparation of indirect damage. Specifically, commercial prejudice, damage to the brand image, loss of profits, results, productivity, turnover, customer base, and orders are all considered indirect damages. Any action taken against the User by a third party constitutes indirect damage and thus does not entitle the User to reparation from Fiveoffices.

Subject to any contrary provisions in these General Conditions or in any agreement concluded between Fiveoffices and a user, Fiveoffices cannot be held responsible for damages of any kind resulting from the unavailability of the service or any use of the Service. However, if for any reason Fiveoffices liability were to be engaged towards the User, it would in any case be limited, for the entire duration of the service, to a sum of 500 euros for all damages suffered by the User, provided that the latter communicates to Fiveoffices within a period of 8 days the elements justifying its liability.

10. Information Publication Conditions

Fiveoffices will only publish User Content under the condition that the User has accepted these General Conditions and the Privacy Policy of the Fiveoffices Platform. Fiveoffices reserves the right to publish only anonymized information (without the name, address, logo, phone number, or any element identifying the User in the content of the information, whether it's in text, video, or photos).

Fiveoffices also reserves the right to publish or not publish User Content through the Service, independently of the above conditions.

Fiveoffices also reserves the right to unilaterally unpublish any Content at its complete discretion.

Finally, Fiveoffices also reserves the right to unilaterally block the republication by the User of any information at its sole discretion. For example, Fiveoffices is required to unpublish and/or block the republication of information in the following cases:

Lack of anonymization of information (absence of name, address, logo, phone number, or any element identifying the client in the content of the information, texts, videos, or photos).
Price not in line with the reality of the offered item or service (dumping effect).
Items or services not in line with the provided information.
Abusive content (photos, description).
Lack of responsiveness by a Host to User requests.

11. Duration

These General Conditions apply for the entire duration of the User's use of the Service and until the complete fulfilment of the contractual obligations between Fiveoffices and the Users.

12. Account Deletion

Any User with an Account can request the deletion of their account at any time. As a result, Fiveoffices will no longer be able to provide all or part of the Service after the Account is deleted. The deletion of the user account does not entitle the User to a refund by Fiveoffices due to the potential non-provision of all or part of the Service, nor does it release the User from the obligations they have undertaken within the framework of the General Conditions, especially with regards to the payment of remuneration owed to Fiveoffices under the article 'Price - Service Fees.'

13. Partial Invalidity

In the event that one or more provisions of these General Conditions are considered null, deemed unwritten, or declared as such in accordance with a law, regulation, or as a result of a decision by a competent jurisdiction with authority of the final judgement, the other provisions will remain in full force and effect and will remain fully applicable, unless the invalid provisions have a substantial character and their disappearance would undermine the contractual balance between Fiveoffices and its Users.
