All transactional and promotional electronic communications sent by the Platform to Customers comply with the requirements of the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003.

Customers who receive promotional communications from the Platform may opt out at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions included in each communication.

Transactional communications related to confirmed Orders, payment confirmations, and order updates are not subject to opt-out restrictions as they constitute necessary service communications.

The Platform's registered address for the purposes of the CAN-SPAM Act is: Calle Periodista Gabriel Diaz 3, P.B.I 8, Torremolinos, Málaga, España, 29620.

5.14. Recurring Orders

The Platform offers an optional Recurring Order feature that allows Customers to schedule automatic repetition of confirmed Orders at regular intervals.

5.14.1. Enabling Recurring Orders

A Customer may enable the Recurring Order feature after successfully placing and confirming an initial Order. The Customer may set the following parameters:

• frequency of recurrence (weekly, biweekly, monthly, or other available intervals)
• day of the week or month for order placement
• end date or open-ended recurrence until cancelled by the Customer.

By enabling the Recurring Order feature, the Customer authorizes the Platform to automatically create new Orders based on the original Order parameters at the specified intervals.

5.14.2. Payment Authorization for Recurring Orders

When enabling the Recurring Order feature, the Customer authorizes the Platform to automatically charge the saved payment method on file for each recurring Order without requiring separate payment confirmation for each individual Order.

For Business Account Customers using the Full Payment option described in Section 4.9, automatic charges of 100% of the Total Order Price will be applied to the saved payment method for each recurring Order.

For standard Customers, automatic charges of 30% of the Total Order Price (reservation deposit) will be applied to the saved payment method for each recurring Order.

By enabling the Recurring Order feature and saving a payment method, the Customer provides explicit authorization for these automatic charges in accordance with applicable payment processing requirements.

The Customer acknowledges that:

• each automatic charge constitutes a separate Order and a separate transaction
• the Platform Service Fee applicable to each recurring Order is non-refundable once the Order is confirmed
• the Customer is responsible for ensuring that the saved payment method remains valid and has sufficient funds for each scheduled charge.

5.14.3. Notifications

The Platform will send the Customer an advance notification at least 3 days before each recurring Order is created, including:

• the scheduled Order date
• the Order details and total amount to be charged
• options to edit, skip, or cancel the upcoming Order.

The Customer may edit the Order parameters, skip the next occurrence, or cancel the recurring series at any time before the scheduled charge date through their account dashboard at /account/client/recurring.

5.14.4. Service Provider Availability

Recurring Orders are subject to Service Provider availability. If the selected Service Provider is unavailable for a scheduled recurring Order date, the Platform will notify the Customer as soon as reasonably possible and provide the option to:

• select an alternative Service Provider for that occurrence
• skip that occurrence and continue the recurring series on the next scheduled date.

If the Customer does not select an alternative Service Provider within 24 hours of notification, the occurrence will be automatically skipped and the recurring series will continue on the next scheduled date.

5.14.5. Cancellation of Recurring Orders

The Customer may cancel a Recurring Order series at any time through their account dashboard. Cancellation will take effect for all future occurrences that have not yet been confirmed and charged. Orders that have already been confirmed and charged at the time of cancellation are subject to the cancellation policy described in Section 6 of this Offer.

The Platform reserves the right to cancel a Recurring Order series if the selected Service Provider is no longer available on the Platform or if the Customer's saved payment method repeatedly fails to process.

5.14.6. Modifications to Recurring Orders

The Customer may modify the parameters of a Recurring Order series at any time through their account dashboard, including:

• menu selection
• number of guests
• delivery address
• frequency and scheduling.

Modifications will apply to all future occurrences that have not yet been confirmed and charged.

5.15. Tipping

The Platform offers an optional tipping feature that allows Customers to express appreciation for exceptional service by leaving a gratuity for the Service Provider after Order completion.

5.15.1. Tip Eligibility

Tips may only be submitted after an Order has been marked as Completed. The tipping option will be displayed on the Order details page alongside the review feature once the Order status is updated to Completed.

5.15.2. Tip Amount

Customers may select from the following suggested tip amounts calculated as a percentage of the Total Order Price:

• 15%
• 20%
• 25%
• Custom amount entered by the Customer.

5.15.3. Voluntary Nature of Tips

Tipping is entirely voluntary and optional. The Customer is under no obligation to leave a tip. The decision not to leave a tip will not affect the Customer's access to the Platform or the quality of service provided by the Platform.

5.15.4. Tip Processing

Tips are processed as separate payment transactions through the Platform's third-party payment processor. By submitting a tip, the Customer authorizes a separate charge to their saved payment method or the payment method used for the original Order deposit.

Tips are processed as one-time transactions. Once a tip has been submitted for a specific Order, it cannot be modified or reversed.

5.15.5. Platform Commission on Tips

The Platform does not charge any commission or service fee on tips. Tips are transferred in full to the Service Provider subject only to applicable third-party payment processing fees charged by Stripe or other payment processors, which are deducted from the tip amount received by the Service Provider.

5.15.6. No Tax Obligation for Platform

The Customer acknowledges that tips constitute gratuities paid directly to the Service Provider. The Platform does not assume any tax reporting or withholding obligations with respect to tips. The Service Provider is solely responsible for reporting and paying all applicable taxes on tips received in accordance with applicable federal and state law.

SECTION 6 — RESERVATION PAYMENT, CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY

6.1. Structure of the Reservation Payment

When placing an Order through the Platform, the Customer is required to pay a reservation payment equal to 15% or 30% of the total Order price, as determined in accordance with Section 4.1.

The reservation payment consists of the following components:

• Platform Service Fee — 15% of the total Order price for standard Service Providers, or 12% of the total Order price for Service Providers marked "Payment protected"
• Service Provider Reservation Deposit — 18% of the total Order price, for Service Providers marked "Payment protected" only.

The Platform Service Fee represents compensation for the services provided by the Platform, including but not limited to the use of the Platform infrastructure, search functionality, booking tools, administrative coordination, and reservation processing.

The Service Provider Reservation Deposit secures the availability of the Service Provider for the agreed event date.

The remaining balance of the Order price is paid directly by the Customer to the Service Provider outside the Platform using payment methods agreed between them.

6.2. Non-Refundable Matchmaking Fee

A part of the Platform Service Fee equal to 5% of the total Order price, but not less than USD 100 and not more than USD 200, and in no case exceeding the Platform Service Fee for the Order (the "Matchmaking Fee"), becomes non-refundable once the Order is confirmed.

The Customer acknowledges that the Matchmaking Fee constitutes payment for services already rendered by the Platform in connecting the Customer with the Service Provider and facilitating the reservation and booking of services through the Platform.

Accordingly, the Matchmaking Fee is not subject to refund in the event of cancellation of the Order by the Customer for any reason.

The Customer expressly acknowledges and agrees to the non-refundable nature of the Matchmaking Fee prior to completing the reservation payment.

6.3. Refund of the Reservation Payment

The refundable portion of the reservation payment is the reservation payment less the Matchmaking Fee.

If the Customer cancels a confirmed Order, the refundable portion of the reservation payment is refunded depending on the number of full days remaining before the event date at the time of cancellation:

• 30 or more days before the event — 100% of the refundable portion
• 15 to 29 days before the event — 50% of the refundable portion
• fewer than 15 days before the event — no refund.

For Service Providers marked "Payment protected", the refundable portion includes the Service Provider Reservation Deposit. The refund is processed through the Platform, and the Customer does not need to claim that amount from the Service Provider separately.

Amounts paid by the Customer directly to the Service Provider (the Main Payment) are governed by the cancellation conditions agreed between the Customer and the Service Provider. The Platform does not determine or guarantee the refundability of such amounts.

6.4. Cancellation by the Customer

The Customer may cancel a confirmed Order by submitting a cancellation request through the Platform interface, using the "Cancel event" function on the Order page.

The cancellation date shall be considered the date on which the cancellation request is submitted through the Platform. A cancellation communicated only to the Service Provider does not constitute a cancellation request for the purposes of refunding the reservation payment until it is submitted through the Platform.

Before the Customer confirms the cancellation, the Platform displays the amount that will be refunded.

Upon cancellation of an Order:

• the Matchmaking Fee remains non-refundable;
• the refundable portion of the reservation payment is refunded in accordance with clause 6.3;
• amounts paid directly to the Service Provider may be refundable or non-refundable depending on the cancellation policy of the Service Provider.

Cancellation requests submitted within 7 days after the Service Provider's contact details were disclosed to the Customer are reviewed by the Platform before any refund is issued. The Platform may refuse the refund where the review shows that the event is being carried out with the Service Provider outside the Platform, in which case clause 7.3.6 applies.

Any claims regarding the refund of amounts paid directly to the Service Provider must be addressed directly to the Service Provider.

The Platform does not assume responsibility for refund decisions made by Service Providers regarding such amounts.

6.5. Cancellation by the Service Provider

If the Service Provider cancels the Order and is unable to perform the services on the agreed event date, the Customer may be entitled to a refund of the reservation payment.

The Customer should notify the Platform at info@caterizi.com. The Platform will review the case and may refund the amounts paid through the Platform. Refunds of any amounts paid directly to the Service Provider shall be handled directly between the Customer and the Service Provider.

The Platform may assist in facilitating communication between the parties but does not guarantee refunds issued by Service Providers.

6.6. Assistance in Finding an Alternative Service Provider

If the Service Provider cancels the Order, the Platform may attempt to assist the Customer in identifying an alternative Service Provider offering similar services for the same event date.

The Customer may accept or decline the proposed replacement.

If a replacement Service Provider is accepted, the reservation deposit may be transferred to the new Service Provider subject to agreement between the parties.

6.7. Event Date Changes

Requests by the Customer to change the event date may be treated as a cancellation of the original Order and the creation of a new Order unless the Service Provider agrees to transfer the reservation deposit to a new event date.

If the Service Provider agrees to reschedule the event, the reservation deposit may remain valid for the new date.

Any agreement regarding date changes must be confirmed in writing between the Customer and the Service Provider.

6.8. Payment Processor Refunds

Where refunds are applicable, they may be processed through the same payment method used for the original transaction whenever technically possible.

The Platform is not responsible for delays caused by banks, payment processors, or financial institutions involved in the transaction.

Payment processing fees charged by third-party payment providers may be deducted from refundable amounts where permitted by applicable law.

Refund processing times may vary depending on the Customer's bank or card issuer and are outside the control of the Platform.

6.9. Marketplace Liability Limitation for Refunds

The Customer acknowledges that the Platform operates solely as an online marketplace facilitating the connection between Customers and independent Service Providers.

The Platform is not a party to the service contract between the Customer and the Service Provider and does not assume responsibility for the performance of the services or for refund obligations related to such services.

Accordingly, any refund obligations related to the services themselves remain the sole responsibility of the Service Provider.

The Platform's financial responsibility is strictly limited to the proper processing of payments made through the Platform infrastructure and shall not exceed the amount of the reservation deposit actually paid by the Customer through the Platform for the respective Order.

6.10. Chargeback Policy

The Customer acknowledges that initiating a chargeback with their bank or card issuer for the Matchmaking Fee or for any other amount that is non-refundable under this Section without valid grounds constitutes a breach of this Offer.

In the event of an unwarranted chargeback, the Platform reserves the right to:

• contest the chargeback with the relevant payment processor by providing documentation of the services rendered by the Platform;
• restrict or terminate the Customer's access to the Platform;
• pursue recovery of any losses, fees, or penalties incurred by the Platform as a result of the chargeback.

The Customer is encouraged to contact the Platform directly at info@caterizi.com to resolve any payment disputes prior to initiating a chargeback with their bank or card issuer.

6.11. State Consumer Protection Rights

Nothing in this Section limits any mandatory consumer protection rights available to Customers under the laws of their respective state.

Customers located in states with specific consumer protection regulations, including but not limited to California, New York, and Texas, retain all mandatory rights provided under applicable state law notwithstanding the terms of this Offer.

To the extent that any provision of this Section conflicts with mandatory consumer protection laws applicable to the Customer, such mandatory provisions shall prevail.

6.12. No Statutory Right of Withdrawal

Unlike consumer transactions governed by European Union consumer protection law, United States federal law does not provide a general statutory right of withdrawal for services booked for a specific event date.

However, Customers retain all cancellation and refund rights expressly set forth in this Section and any additional rights available under applicable state law.

Offers marked "Payment protected" may be displayed above other offers. This indicator is not a verification badge and is not based on ratings or the number of completed Orders.
