Services: Unless expressly stated otherwise, the services provided by the Company pursuant to these Terms and Conditions (the “Marketing Services“) are limited to informing users of the location and potential availability of certain parking spots (“Parking Spots“) and facilitating Reservations (as defined below) by displaying Parking Spots, processing Reservations and collecting fees. Any fees and/or consideration paid to Company is paid to Company in connection with these Marketing Services unless otherwise indicated. We are not responsible for any consequences arising from the Marketing Services, including, without limitation, consequences arising from not being able to park, or delays associated with parking, road closures or changing traffic conditions. Although we do not guarantee the availability of a specific Parking Spot, if a booked Parking Spot is unavailable at your time of reservation, we will attempt to locate an alternative Parking Spot, provide you with a refund and/or otherwise resolve any issues in accordance with our standard customer service policies and procedures.
Licensors; Licensor Terms and Conditions: We list the Parking Spots on the Site and, as such, facilitate the reservation of Parking Spots on a one-time or monthly basis (individually or collectively, “Reservations“) between users of the Site (“Licensees” or “you”) and the independent owners or lessors of the Parking Spots (the “Licensors”). While we make every effort to provide accurate information regarding the Parking Spots listed on the Site, at times such information may become inaccurate and the Company shall not be liable for any such inaccuracy. In all cases, your utilization of a Parking Spot will be governed by applicable law and the Company’s policies in place from time to time, including, without limitation, all terms and conditions related to the use of any Parking Spot, all payment terms and conditions and all rules and restrictions in place at the relevant parking facility and/or Parking Spot, in accordance with the Licensor’s standard operating procedures (the “Licensor Terms and Conditions“).
By making a Reservation, you agree in all cases to abide by the Licensor Terms and Conditions.

Without limitation of the foregoing, you agree that you may not sell, convey, license, sublicense, or resell or attempt any of the foregoing.
Fees and Payments: You are responsible for all charges, fees, duties, taxes, and assessments arising out of any Reservation, the use of a Parking Spot, the Marketing Services or the use of the Site. You agree to pay to the Company all fees for (including any overage fees) for the Marketing Services, in accordance with the pricing and payment terms presented to you for such Marketing Services. Where applicable, you will be billed using the billing method you select through your User Account management page. Except as provided in these Terms and Conditions or when required by law, all fees paid by you are non-refundable. The Company may change the fees for any Marketing Services, including any Marketing Services billed pursuant to a Subscription (as defined below), at any time.
Subscriptions: Billings for, and payments of, monthly parking fees are always subject to Company policies with respect to monthly parking, which policies are set forth in the Company’s “Monthly Parking Account Guidelines,” which may be accessed at https://www.ecolonial.com/paris/popups/monthly-application-tos.php. In the event that any of the non-monthly Marketing Services are billed on a Subscription basis (“Subscriptions“), you will be billed in advance on a recurring, periodic basis (each period, a “Billing Cycle“). Your Subscription will automatically renew at the end of each Billing Cycle unless you cancel auto-renewal through your User Account management page, or by contacting our customer support team. If the Company changes the fees for any Marketing Services billed pursuant to a Subscription, the change will become effective only at the end of the then-current Billing Cycle. The Company will provide you with reasonable prior written notice of any change in fees to give you an opportunity to cancel your Subscription before the change becomes effective.
Taxes and Overage Fees: In connection with facilitating your transaction, the Company will charge your credit card for the total reservation price, which includes the amount for the Parking Spots, and may include a fee retained by the Company for providing its services in facilitating the Reservations, and all anticipated applicable taxes. The Company may charge a service fee as compensation for facilitating reservations and for providing Marketing Services. The amounts paid to the Company in connection with your reservation include all anticipated applicable taxes for the Parking Spots. Unless otherwise stated, any overage fees incurred by you will be billed in arrears on a monthly basis. Overage fees which remain unpaid for 30 days after being billed are considered overdue. Failure to pay overage fees when due may result in the applicable service being limited, suspended, or terminated (subject to applicable legal requirements), which may result in a loss of your data associated with that service.
Cancellations and Refunds: Reservations purchased through the Site are fully refundable in accordance with the Company’s cancellation policy in effect at the time of booking and as more fully described at ecolonial.com (as may be updated by the Company from time to time). You can cancel a Reservation for any reason before that time pursuant to the Company’s cancellation policy. Each Reservation is non-refundable following the start time of such Reservation, regardless of your use or non-use of the Reservation and regardless of any circumstance surrounding the use or non-use of a Reservation (i.e., traffic or weather delays, cancellation of a related event).
The Company may from time to time partner with third parties (“Partner“), and Reservations purchased on Partner websites are not refundable for any reason.
Promotional Marketing Incentives: The Company may from time to time issue promotional marketing incentives in the form of promotional codes, promotional discounts, coupon codes or other marketing incentives (“Marketing Incentives“). The Marketing Incentives are given for no exchange of value or other consideration and you, therefore, have no ownership interests or rights in the Marketing Incentives. For this reason, the Company reserves the right to deactivate or discontinue any Marketing Incentive at any time and for any reason, including, but not limited to, business necessity, mistake, failure to maintain an updated online account, unauthorized use or suspicion of fraud or abuse of any promotional program or Marketing Incentives. Further, the Company reserves the right to terminate or discontinue any promotional program or other program offering Marketing Incentives at any time.
