9. Payments

The User will be visibly informed on the Website about the current price of the selected Paid Services, each time. All prices indicated on the Website or in the price lists are gross prices (including value added tax, or VAT) expressed in Euro (EUR). The price lists are available in the Help section found on the Website at [LINK]. The price lists contain information about those Paid Services to which dynamic pricing applies.

1.A. The price for publishing an Advertisement (including the renewal of the advertisement) may vary depending on the number of the User's advertisements posted on the Website, in the Auto, Moto and Boats and Agro and Industry categories, in the previous thirty (30) day period. When adding a new Advertisement, the User will be informed of the total number of Advertisements previously uploaded in the said period of time and of the current price payable for the publication (including the extension of the publication period) of such Advertisement on the Website, in the Auto, Moto and Boats and Agro and Industry categories, respectively. The amount of the applicable prices is also set out in the Price List referred to in paragraph 1 above.

Payments within the Service are made in advance, namely in the total amount required for a particular Paid Service, before the start of its provision, through the payment methods made available by OLE. In the Categories of Jobs, Auto Parts, Accommodation-Tourism, Rental of Goods and Vehicles and Services, payment can also be made subsequently, namely cumulatively at the end of each calendar month, with respect to all Paid Services provided to the User within the Website, in a given month (payment at the end of the month).

Payment at the end of the month is a form of payment settlement between OLE and Professional Users, consisting in the possibility for the latter to make a collective payment for the use of Paid Services, within a payment term of at least 14 days from the date of issuing an invoice by OLE and making it available to the Professional User in his Account.

The end-of-month payment is available only for the Categories Jobs, Auto Parts , Accommodation-Tourism, Goods and Vehicle Rental and Services and is made available to the Professional User only upon his express request, by completing the form provided by OLE. After the successful submission of the application, it will be subject to verification, consisting of confirming the Professional User's data based on documents confirming his commercial activity, together with the order form. In the event of justified suspicions by OLE regarding the veracity of the data provided in the order form, as well as in the event of the existence of justified circumstances that may affect the proper fulfillment of the Professional User's payment obligations to OLE, the latter may refuse to grant this form of payment.

If payment is made in advance, the provision of the Paid Service will not begin until the payment for this Paid Service has been fully credited to the OLE account. In the case of payments made by Payment Order, OLE will deliver the service within 24-72 hours from the moment the payment is confirmed by the payment service provider.

In the case of payments made at the end of the month, in the Categories of Jobs, Auto Parts, Accommodation-Tourism, Rental of Goods and Vehicles and Services, the commencement of the provision of the Paid Service will take place at the time of publication of the respective Advertisement or at the choice of the Paid Service User.

The sales prices displayed are in Euro and include value added tax (VAT). 

In the case of services paid in advance (pre-paid), the sales price will be displayed in RON before the purchase is completed, using the following calculation formula: the EURO / RON exchange rate, communicated by the European Central Bank, valid for the last published exchange rate day, prior to payment, to which 1% is added. 

In the case of services paid after use, at the end of the month (post-paid), the sales price will be reflected in the invoice issued by the Supplier, in RON, using the following calculation formula: the EURO / RON exchange rate, communicated by the European Central Bank, valid for the last published exchange rate day, prior to the date of invoice issuance, to which 1% is added. 

Similarly, the calculation formula is used in conversion for any other currencies in which the sales price is displayed. The exchange rates practiced by the European Central Bank can be consulted here . 

Example: The sales price displayed = 100 EURO (including VAT). The European Central Bank exchange rate applicable to the transaction 5 RON = 1 EURO. Selling price = 100 x (5+1/100 x 5) = 505 RON (including VAT).

The User, at his/her discretion, may make the payment using one of the available payment methods in accordance with the information provided during the selection process of the respective Service and with the help of the payment instructions within OLE Wallet and the Help section.

The use of any of the payment methods (except for payments from OLE Wallet) will require the establishment of a separate legal relationship with the respective payment service provider and acceptance of its Regulations, as well as its Privacy Policies. OLE is not a party to such a relationship and has no possibility to intervene in its content or implementation. In case of any payment-related issues, the User must contact the relevant payment operator, in order to clarify any doubts or to file a complaint. In exceptional situations and within the limits of technical and organizational possibilities, OLE will provide support to the User in order to clarify the issue. OLE does not assume responsibility for payment services provided by an external service provider.

The provision of services to the User by OLE is documented through invoices issued by the Provider, in accordance with applicable regulations.

In the case of Paid Services that have been provided or advance payments received from Users, the Provider issues invoices by the 15th of the month following the month in which the Paid Services were provided or an advance payment was received, at the latest. 

Once an invoice has been issued, the modification by the User of the billing information (customer details) that were initially provided entails the cancellation of the initial invoice and the issuance of a new invoice with the User's new details. The User may request the modification of the billing details only if each individual invoice exceeds the value of 500 lei and only within a period of 30 days from the date of issuance of the initial invoice. 

The invoice correction procedure will be accepted by the Supplier only if the VAT treatment of the transaction remains the same depending on the status of the customer (for example, both the original customer and the new customer are both either natural persons or legal persons who are not taxable persons registered for VAT purposes, or both are entities registered for VAT purposes in Romania or both are foreign entities registered for VAT purposes in another state). For the avoidance of doubt and by way of example, the Supplier will not proceed to reissue invoices (i) from an original natural person customer to a new legal person customer or vice versa or (ii) from an original UK legal person customer to an EU legal entity as a new customer.

The User is obliged to update the data recorded in the Account necessary for the issuance of the invoice by the Service Provider, immediately after any such change occurs.

The default form of issuing invoices, available to Users, is in electronic format. Acceptance of the Regulation also constitutes acceptance of the transmission (making available) of invoices in electronic format, in accordance with applicable legal provisions and within the meaning of the Regulation.

Subject to the conditions set out in these Regulations, OLE makes invoices available to the User in electronic format, guaranteeing the authenticity of their origin, the integrity of their content and their legality, in particular by saving them in pdf format and by making them available to the User in his Account, giving the User the possibility to view and download them. The User who receives invoices in electronic format is obliged to download and save them himself. The User can view and download the invoices issued from his Account by registering on the Website using only a computer or laptop.

A User who wants an invoice in printed format can opt for this option by sending an express request to this effect to the contact address: contact@OLE.ad. 

In the event of early termination of the display of the Advertisement, due to the deletion of the Advertisement by the User or if the Product has been sold or the User has changed the subject of the Advertisement in such a way as to indicate that it refers to a different Product than the one initially referred to, the cost charged for publishing the Advertisement and for the Paid Services related to it, for the unused period, will not be refunded.

Ads that are illegal or violate the provisions of the Regulation, in particular those: added within an erroneous category, that are similar or duplicated, that are repeated many times (of a spam nature), considered offensive, that have pornographic or erotic content, content that can be interpreted as promoting sexual or erotic activities in exchange for sums of money, that constitute an attempt at fraud, that violate any copyright, will be deleted, and the commission previously charged for the subject of the Advertisement and for the Paid Services related to that Advertisement will be refunded to the User's account in the form of points used for using the services within the Service within 90 Days from the moment of deletion of that Advertisement. At the User's request, the commission may be refunded in cash, directly to the bank account from which the payment was made or in accordance with the payment method used. If an Advertisement is deleted after its placement within the Service, the User will be obliged to pay for the Services provided until the moment of deletion of the Advertisement from the Service. At the same time, if a payment is made via SMS, the Service will deduct the commission charged by the SMS payment service operator for activating the Advertisement.

Considering the legal provisions in force regarding electronic invoicing RO e-Factura, starting with January 1, 2024, in the case of Paid Services provided by the Supplier for the benefit of the Professional User, respectively with January 1, 2025, in the case of Paid Services provided by the Supplier for the benefit of Consumers, the Supplier will transmit the invoice issued in the national system regarding the electronic invoice RO e-Factura, regardless of whether the User is registered or not in the RO e-Factura Register.

Without prejudice to the above, the Supplier shall have the right but not the obligation to transmit to Professional Users registered in the RO e-Invoice Registry the invoices registered according to the procedure described above.

In the case of Professional Users not registered in the RO e-Invoice Register, the procedure for sending invoices in pdf format to them, in accordance with point 14) above, remains fully applicable until the date of their registration in the RO e-Invoice Register, but no later than the deadline provided for by applicable legislation. The procedure for sending invoices according to point 14) also remains applicable in the case of Consumers.

Professional Users undertake to register in the RO e-Invoice Registry within the period provided by applicable legislation and to notify this registration to the Provider at the contact address: contact@OLE.ad.

In the context of the legal provisions regarding electronic invoicing RO e-Factura, the User undertakes to provide all mandatory data requested in the forms related to Paid Services or for issuing an invoice. Failure to communicate these requested data could prevent the completion of the ordering process for Paid Services, as well as the payment or receipt of an invoice. Consumers may opt to include the personal identification number in the invoice issued by the Provider, by completing the relevant section in the forms related to Paid Services or for issuing an invoice. Given the purpose of the legal provisions regarding electronic invoicing RO e-Factura, the decision to insert the personal identification number in the billing data cannot be withdrawn.

The Provider is entitled to verify the billing data indicated by the User in the ANAF (National Tax Administration Agency) database. In case of any irregularity, the User undertakes to update the information and eliminate the identified errors.

 

 

10. OLE Wallet Service

OLE offers Users the possibility to use the OLE Wallet Service (OLE Electronic Wallet) free of charge within the Account services, this leading to the simplification of settlements between the User and OLE, related to the ordered Paid Services. For the avoidance of doubt, the OLE Wallet service does not constitute a payment service, and the units allocated in the OLE Wallet do not constitute electronic currency within the meaning of the provisions relating to the provision of payment services.

 

The use of the OLE Wallet service is based on the following rules:

 

The User must "credit" the OLE Wallet by depositing funds into the OLE account, in one of the accepted currencies, in accordance with the information made available within the Service;

 

After crediting the payment to the OLE account, the latter distributes to the User's OLE Wallet the number of units equal to the amount paid. This amount is constantly updated, after each operation performed by the User that leads to a change in the amount (recharging leads to an increase in the number of units in the OLE Wallet, and paying for the selected Paid Service leads to a decrease in the number of units in the OLE Wallet);

 

The User has full and exclusive freedom to use the amounts assigned to his/her OLE Wallet, throughout the entire duration of the Account services contract, provided that this Account is active;

 

in the event of making payments to certain entities, from the OLE Wallet, for a certain Paid Service, OLE will deduct the price due for the provision of that Paid Service, charging the corresponding amount from the User's OLE Wallet (balance reduction).

 

The User may request, at any time, the reimbursement of funds paid into the OLE Wallet, in any amount not exceeding the displayed balance, taking into account the payments and recharges made by the User. Such a request shall be sent by email (contact@OLE.ad) or in writing to OLE.

 

The refund of funds from OLE Wallet will be made by transfer to the bank account from which the payment was made or in accordance with the payment method used to make the payment, the refund term being between 5 and 7 business days. The request for the refund of funds from OLE Wallet does not apply to bonus credits assigned to the Account within the framework of promotional actions, contests, discount points and reimbursement bonuses granted to Premium Packages in accordance with Annex no. 6 "Standard and Premium Packages".

The payment due for the Buyer's payment of the price of the Item may be withheld by the Payment Processor until the Seller completes the identity verification process in accordance with applicable anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing regulations and the Payment Processor's rules. In order to perform the identity verification process, the Payment Processor may request the User to:

 

providing data confirming identity, for example: a scan of an identity card, a scan of a passport, company registration data and company agreements, an extract from a bank account belonging to the User,

The provisions governing the complaints procedure apply accordingly.

These moderation policies and procedures, adopted by OLE, outline the methods and means of identifying content or user actions that are reviewed for violations of the Terms and Conditions of Use or applicable laws.

14. Ratings System

OLE provides a rating system, through which the Buyer can evaluate his/her satisfaction with the Transaction through the OLE Delivery service with a specific Seller ("Ratings"). Buyers can add predefined labels to the rating by OLE, in accordance with section 14a.6 below.

 

Ratings allow for the expression of opinions regarding the Transaction process - that is, all stages of the Transaction execution that are the responsibility of the Seller. For example, when giving a rating, the Buyer may consider the item's conformity with the description in the ad, the way the item is packaged, how long it takes the Seller to ship the item, the contact with the Seller, or the price set by the Seller.

 

Ratings cannot:

 

constitute a rating of the Product in the advertisement, except in the case where the rating refers to the lack of conformity of the Product in the Advertisement with the description prepared by the Seller;

 

be granted in exchange for a benefit obtained from the Seller (e.g. discount, free of charge, discount on the next purchase, compensation, etc.);

 

to refer to OLE

 

The ability to give a rating is available in the same ad categories where the option to buy using the OLE Delivery service is available. Buyers cannot rate Transactions made without using the OLE Delivery service.

 

Ratings can be added using the form available on the Platform. Each Transaction through OLE Delivery can be rated only once on a scale of 1 to 5 stars. One star means the worst rating, and five stars means the best rating. The Buyer does not have the option to edit the rating given after adding it. All added ratings are published on the Platform. Each rating is marked with the Buyer's account name, the number of stars given, the title of the ad, the date the rating was issued, and the tags added by the Buyer.

 

The overall rating for a particular Seller is visible to Users on the listing page and elsewhere on the Platform. The overall rating is the arithmetic average of all ratings added by Buyers (excluding ratings removed in accordance with section 14a.10 below) for Transactions concluded with that Seller. The overall rating can range from 1 to 5 stars, where 1 star represents the worst possible rating and 5 stars represents the best possible rating. The Seller's overall rating will be visible once the Seller receives at least 1 rating. The overall rating is rounded to the nearest tenth (with a precision of 0.1). The Seller has a single overall rating for Transactions in all Listing categories.

 

Tags may only be selected from a list specified by OLE of available tags at the time of adding a particular rating. A Buyer may add up to 6 tags to a rating. A rating of 3 stars or less must be justified by adding at least one tag indicating the reason for such rating. Available tags may change, but changes will not include tags from ratings already given.

 

Buyers can add a rating after they receive the item, i.e. after the OLE Delivery Transaction is completed. In this way, OLE ensures that the ratings come from Users who have actually made Transactions on the Platform. Buyers can rate the OLE Delivery Transaction for 60 days from the moment of receiving the package. Buyers cannot rate Transactions made with OLE Delivery that have not been completed.

 

Buyers can rate OLE Delivery Transactions made after 30 days of creating an Account on the Platform. Ratings cannot be added by Buyers whose Accounts have been blocked or suspended. These conditions are verified at the time of package delivery.

 

Reviews must be truthful and reflect the Buyer's opinion regarding the OLE Delivery Transaction. Users may not add false, fraudulent, and misleading reviews and labels.

 

OLE may remove a rating along with its label if it determines that such rating or label:

 

are false, fraudulent or misleading;

 

does not refer to the OLE Delivery Transaction or refers to a Transaction other than the one being evaluated;

 

were granted by a User for themselves;

 

were awarded as a result of an error reported to OLE by the rating author;

 

were granted to artificially increase or decrease the Seller's credibility;

 

were granted from an account created based on a temporary email address;

 

were granted in a manner that indicates automatic granting;

 

were granted in exchange for a benefit;

 

violates the terms of the Regulations or applicable law.

 

Decisions on the removal of a rating are made manually, based on point 14 of the Regulation and the internal policies and moderation procedures developed on this basis.

 

Users may request OLE to remove a rating they have given or received in the cases specified in section 14a.10 above. When requesting the removal of a rating, the User must specify the rating, indicating the date of the rating, the name of the Buyer who gave it and the title of the Listing to which it refers. The User should indicate the reason for requesting the removal of the rating specified in section 14a.10 above and provide adequate evidence to justify it.

 

If the User disagrees with OLE's decision to remove or not a rating or label, he/she may file a complaint. Sections 15.1-7 of the Regulations shall apply accordingly in this regard.

 

The Buyer and Seller will be informed by email of the removal of the rating, along with the justification for its removal and providing the basis for such action.

 

The Provider shall ensure the electronic reporting to OLE of situations in which reviews displayed on the Service constitute prohibited content or content that contravenes the Terms of Use. Sections 15.8 and 17.6 of the Terms of Use shall apply accordingly in this regard.
