GetMyOpinion will not be liable for technical constraints related to the specifics of the Internet network or for any interruption that is not attributable to its fault.
Functioning of GMO Response: The Client is aware that this option is only an assistance module for drafting responses to published Reviews and cannot replace the review of the response by human intelligence. GetMyOpinion in no way guarantees the relevance, accuracy, or reliability of the response proposals generated by GMO Response and cannot be held liable for errors, omissions, or misinterpretations of the request. GMO Response can make mistakes. It is important to verify all information.
Consumers: In no way can GetMyOpinion's liability be sought by the Client for the behavior of Consumers, particularly if Consumers do not respond to Review requests, for the content of Reviews written by Consumers, or in the event of a decrease in the number of visitors to the Client's Website(s), or the occurrence of a problem related to the publication of negative Review(s) or the execution of the contract between the Client and the Consumer.
Under no circumstances does GetMyOpinion play a role in the relationship between the Client and its Consumer. It will be the Client's responsibility to manage any difficulties that arise with them following the collection of a Review or more generally within the framework of the contract or the relationship that binds them.
Third Parties: GetMyOpinion is not responsible for the actions of third parties regarding the use of Reviews and the overall rating, including the insertion by Google of the Client's overall rating and the number of Reviews collected, nor for the referencing of the Client's site on the Google search engine (or any other search engine). Only the third parties operating these sites and search engines are responsible for these uses.
All technical means, as well as telecommunication costs allowing access to and use of the Solution, are the exclusive charge and sole responsibility of the Client. The Client's IT configuration is their sole responsibility.
GetMyOpinion disclaims all liability to the Client for the functioning of the Solution if the Client's computer equipment proves to be obsolete, faulty, or insufficient, or not in compliance with any prerequisites communicated by GetMyOpinion.
The Solution is accessible to the Client via a username and password. This Contract includes, unless otherwise specified in writing, a single user per Client to access the Solution.
Review requests from Clients addressed to Consumers must be related to a consumption experience of said Consumers with the Client, and the Review must be linked to a clearly identified Consumer.
The Client guarantees to GetMyOpinion the accuracy and authenticity of the data communicated for the performance of the Services and compliance with applicable regulations, in accordance with Annex 1.
The Client must not under any circumstances generate false evaluations through fake orders, false comments, or any other manipulation.
In the context of providing the Services, GetMyOpinion is required to process personal data concerning Consumers, under the following terms:
– For sending Review requests to Consumers, based on the information provided by the Client, as a processor for the Client under the conditions detailed in Annex 1;
– For collecting, moderating, and publishing Reviews, as a data controller, as GetMyOpinion determines the means and purposes of this processing, in accordance with the current regulations applicable to the collection, moderation, and publication of online reviews.
GetMyOpinion will use the Personal Data of Consumers only in the context of operating the Solution and for the sole purposes of collecting, moderating, and publishing Reviews.
GetMyOpinion holds all intellectual property rights to provide the Solution and its widgets, as well as on the graphic charter, trademarks, and logos used in the provision of the Services. In particular, GetMyOpinion is the owner of a French semi-figurative trademark registered under number 4323276 and provides the Client with a logo to indicate the origin of the Reviews on the Client's Website(s) (hereinafter 'the Logo').
In this regard, the Client will respect GetMyOpinion's intellectual property rights and all mentions relating to these rights present on the constituent elements of the Solution and on all related media. Generally, the Client undertakes not to infringe in any way on GetMyOpinion's intellectual property rights.
GetMyOpinion guarantees that the Services, the Solution, and the Logo do not constitute an infringement of a third party's intellectual property rights.
Subject to the subscription to a Subscription and payment of the price, GetMyOpinion grants the Client a personal, non-exclusive, and non-transferable right of access and online use of the Solution (and GMO Response if applicable) for one user, as well as the right to reproduce and represent the Logo on the Client's Website(s), for the duration of the Contract.
The Client undertakes in particular not to: (i) use the Solution, GMO Response, or the Logo for purposes other than those provided for in the Contract; (ii) reproduce, decompile, reverse engineer, or modify all or part of the Solution; (iii) develop or market a competing service during the term of the Contract and for the three years following its termination.
The Client authorizes GetMyOpinion to represent and reproduce its name, logos, and trademarks on GetMyOpinion's Websites and its commercial materials as a reference, and indemnifies GetMyOpinion against any action by a third party in this regard.
The prices of the Subscriptions are those in effect on the day the order is placed, as indicated on the GetMyOpinion Website. They are denominated in euros and calculated exclusive of tax. Consequently, they will be increased by the VAT rate applicable on the day of the order. The price of the Subscription corresponds to a maximum number of Reviews during the considered period. If the number of Reviews exceeds this limit, the Client must subscribe to a Subscription corresponding to a higher number; otherwise, the excess Reviews will not be processed, without liability on the part of GetMyOpinion.
GetMyOpinion reserves the right to change its prices at any time.
GetMyOpinion will inform each Client by email to the address provided by the Client at the time of the order (or subsequently modified) of any price increase at least 15 (fifteen) days before it takes effect.
In such a case, a Client who does not accept this price increase may terminate the Contract in accordance with the provisions of Article 3.
If the Client does not terminate, the new pricing will be applicable from the next subscription renewal date.
Payment of the price is made by bank transfer to the bank account whose details are provided by GetMyOpinion.
The first payment will be due 30 days after the validation of the order form, which constitutes the Client's subscription to the Subscription. No discount will be granted for early payment.
An invoice will then be sent monthly to the Client 10 days before the transfer is due. Payment must be made by the due date mentioned on the invoice.
Any payment made for the subscribed Subscription will remain the property of GetMyOpinion. No pro-rata refund can be requested due to the termination of the Contract for any reason whatsoever.
In case of total or partial late payment, for any reason whatsoever, a late payment penalty equal to the interest rate applied by the European Central Bank to its most recent refinancing operation plus 10 percentage points will be applied, without prior notice. In addition, a fixed indemnity for recovery costs of a minimum amount of 40 euros will also be applied to the Client. If the recovery costs incurred are higher than 40 euros, GetMyOpinion may request additional compensation, upon justification.
Furthermore, without prejudice to any other rights and remedies, if the Client does not meet their payment obligations, GetMyOpinion will be entitled to suspend access to their personal account and the performance of the Services until full payment of the price, or terminate the Contract in accordance with Article 3.
