Terms of Use

1.0 SOME BASICS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THESE TERMS OF USE

1.1.Who are we and what is this about: You are reading a legal document which is the agreement between you, the Customer (whom we refer to as "you", "your" or the "Customer" in this document) and us. You are agreeing to the terms of use that appear below, all of which are called the “Agreement”. We are GAIA Card Limited and we are the operator of this Site, and provider of a range of services related to the Site. GAIA Card Limited is a company registered in the United Kingdom with our registered office at, 4 Parker Road, Bournemouth BH9 1AY. Our company number is 12632367. “GAIA UK” trades under GAIA Card Limited.

1.2. What we do: We provide a platform (gaiacard.co.uk) where we, our local affiliates and other partners (collectively, “Sellers”) can list offers for Vouchers, deals, goods, getaways and other products (collectively, “Items”). As a platform provider, we help facilitate transactions for Items on our platform. We are never a buyer and usually not the Seller; we provide a venue for Sellers and you to negotiate and complete transactions. This means that in addition to this Agreement, you will have other contractual relationships with different legal entities when you interact with the Site.

1.3. What are all of the legal relationships: Whatever offer you use via the Site will be subject to the terms and conditions of that Seller. Since GAIA Card Limited is not usually a Seller, this means that your contract of sale will most likely be with a different legal entity (often a partner of GAIA CARD LIMITED). But please note that any contracts formed at the completion of a sale for items are solely between you and the Seller (and not GAIA Card Limited). The Seller is responsible for the sale and for dealing with any claims or any other issue arising out of or in connection with the contract between you and the Seller.

1.4. What we also do: We may provide a forum to submit or post User Content, as well as send newsletters and other communications to you.

1.5. Scope of Use: You may access the Site only through our app, standard web and mobile browsers and similar consumer applications, but not with any robot, spider, offline reader, site search/retrieval application or other manual or automatic device, tool, or process to retrieve, index, or data mine our Site, via scraping, spidering or otherwise.
