1. Object

Glovo is a technology company whose main activity is the development and management of a technology platform through which certain local stores (hereinafter, the “Merchants”) in a number of territories can offer their products and/or services on the APP and, in an ancillary manner, where applicable and if so requested through the APP by the Users of the APP and consumers of the said local stores, act as an intermediary in the planned or immediate delivery of the products by third parties (hereinafter, the “Mandataries”). Mandataries are thus a network of people who offer their services through the APP. When they wish to provide their services, they log onto the Glovo APP and undertake to carry out within a certain amount of time the service entrusted to them by the User.

In addition, Glovo is a multi-category Technology Platform for intermediation in the contracting of “on demand” services by electronic means. Its aim is to make it easier for any persons requiring help with their errands, services, purchases in person and/or collection of products from local merchants to carry out their errands by delegating to them to third parties, the Mandataries, who are willing to voluntarily carry out the mandate given to them by Users.

In all cases, Glovo’s role is that of a mere intermediary and, therefore, its sole responsibility and task is to manage the APP that facilitates the contact between User, Merchant and Mandatary. Glovo is in no way responsible for the products and or services offered through the APP, or the performance of any errand or delivery requested through the APP, all in accordance with Section 11 on Responsibilities and Warranties.

By accessing the Site and/or the APP and voluntarily creating a profile, all Users, Merchants and Mandataries acknowledge and expressly and unambiguously agree to these General Terms, as well as to the Privacy Policy and the Cookie Policy available online. Any User, Merchant and/or Mandatary who does not agree with the said General Terms and/or Policies shall refrain from using them.

2.5. Credit Card Theft or Appropriation

Since Glovo cannot guarantee the identity of registered Users, Users are under an obligation to inform Glovo if they have evidence that the credit card associated with their Glovo profile has been stolen and/or is being fraudulently used by a third party. Glovo, together with payment service provider, will make its best efforts to block further payments when duly informed by the User; however,  Glovo will not be liable for any fraudulent use thereof that may be made by third parties on the User’s account and it is neither obliged to make any investigation on the fraudulent use of the Users’ payment methods by third parties nor to block any suspectful transaction. Glovo suggests that Users report any theft, robbery or suspected misuse of their credit card to the police. If necessary, Glovo undertakes to assist Users and cooperate with the competent authorities as may be necessary to provide reliable evidence of the wrongly applied charge. 

In the event of fraud, Glovo reserves the right to take any appropriate action if it has been detrimentally affected by the misuse of the APP.
