GENERAL TERMS OF SALES

 


PURPOSE:

Parkings City Services is a limited liability company with a registered capital of EUR 1,000, the registered office of which is located at 9, RUE NOTRE-DAME DE LORETTE 75009 Paris, registered in the Trade and Company Register of Paris under the number SIREN 510 777 519. Parkings City Services operates the Parkingsdeparis.com web based parking space reservation service accessible at the following address: http://www.parkingsdeparis.com

Parkings City Services is an independent operator. Its relationship with the car parks is based on agreements negotiated on a case-by-case basis with the car park operators. The Parkingsdeparis.com reservation centre refers its clients to partner car parks who are contractually bound to guarantee a parking space for its clients even if the car park is officially "full" on the date of arrival. The Parkingsdeparis.com reservation centre is committed to finding and booking a space for its clients, although this does not mean that the exact location of the space is determined in advance, except in the event of exceptions. This depends on the car parks. In certain establishments, the client must park in the space assigned to him. In others, he can park where he wishes. The Parkingsdeparis.com reservation centre is committed to finding the best opportunities in terms of price, proximity, comfort and security based on its clients’ requirements.

 

ARTICLE 1 – BOOKING A "PARKING CITY PASS"

The "Parking City Pass" is the standard name used to refer to the parking packages created and introduced by the ParkingsdeParis.com reservation centre. Two types of passes are available for clients:

* "Multiple entry/multiple exit" passes, the details of which are described below.

* "Low Cost", "Event", "Show", "Fair", "Museum" or "Exhibition" passes, allowing you to enter and leave the car park just once, the terms of which are detailed below in the General Terms of Sale and in the Special Terms of Sale.

To make a reservation the client should complete a form in which he provides various information including his identity, his contact information, his vehicle details, the type of pass he wishes to purchase in addition to his arrival and departure dates and times. The characteristics of the car park, and in particular the maximum height and length of the vehicles able to enter the car park, the office opening times, the times during which passes can be issued, the entrance and exit times for vehicles in addition to the characteristics of the pass are supplied to the client before the order is placed. The client formally agrees to study these details carefully. From that point on, neither Parkings City Services, nor the ParkingsdeParis.com reservation centre, nor the car park operator nor the car park owner may be considered liable for any direct or indirect losses suffered by the client, if the latter has made a reservation for a space in a car park which cannot accept his vehicle due to its height, length or width, if he arrives outside the opening hours of the car park or if he uses the pass in a manner which does not comply with the usage conditions for this particular pass.
