Terms and Conditions of Service

General Terms and Conditions of Lestis Use License (Software as a Service)

These General Terms and Conditions of Use License (hereinafter the "Agreement" or "T&C") govern the provision and use of the Lestis software in Software as a Service (SaaS) mode between the Provider and the Customer. Acceptance of this Agreement occurs through registration for the service or activation of the first subscription.

1. Definitions and Subject of the Agreement

- Provider (Licensor): Binary Chronicles N° 302220120, with registered office at Chitaia street, N 38, Apartment 1 Chugureti district, Tbilisi, Georgia (hereinafter "The Provider").

- Customer (Licensee): The natural or legal person who subscribes to the membership (hereinafter "Customer" or "Accommodation Facility").

- Platform: The management and booking software "Lestis Platform" provided in SaaS mode and accessible via the Internet, including the generated site and all current and future features.

- Service: Making available to the Customer access to and use of the Platform, including hosting and maintenance.

Subject: The Provider grants the Customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable, and time-limited use license to access and use the Platform for the sole purpose of managing the bookings of their Accommodation Facility.

Provider's Role: The Customer acknowledges that The Provider is solely a software provider. The Provider is not a party to any contract entered into between the Customer and their guests (End Customers of the Accommodation Facility) and does not act as a travel intermediary, booking agency, or fiduciary agent in relation to the booking.

2. Fees and Payments

- Subscription Fee: The Customer is required to pay The Provider a fixed periodic amount (monthly or annual) which varies depending on the chosen price plan. This amount represents the total and final price (taxes included) for the reference period. The Fee is due in advance.

- Fee Processor: Payments of the Subscription Fee to The Provider are managed by the external service provider Stripe Payments Europe.

- Local Taxes and Charges: Unless otherwise specified by the relevant tax regulations (e.g., B2B Reverse Charge), the Subscription Fee includes VAT or other applicable sales taxes. However, the agreed amount is understood to be net of Withholding Tax or other mandatory deductions required by the Customer's local laws. Should the Customer be legally obliged to apply a Withholding Tax, the Customer undertakes to pay The Provider a gross amount such that the net amount received by The Provider is equal to the agreed Subscription Fee. The Customer is responsible for the correct management and payment of such charges to the competent authorities in their country.

- Guest Payments (Accommodation Facility): If the Platform enables the receipt of online payments for bookings (e.g., via a Stripe account connected by the Customer), The Provider acts solely as a technical vehicle. The Customer is solely responsible for managing guest payments, including acquisition, security, refunds, chargebacks, and disputes with end customers and their payment processor (e.g., Stripe).

- Guest Payment Disputes: The Provider has no responsibility for financial transactions between the Customer and their guests. Any dispute over collections, refunds, or fraud relating to bookings must be resolved directly between the Customer and the guest, and/or the Customer's payment processor (e.g., Stripe).

- Billing: The Provider will issue an invoice periodically based on the subscribed plan. Failure to receive the Fee payment will result in the immediate suspension of the Service. Invoices are sent upon request via the contact page available in the private area.

- Refunds: For the Fee refund policy, please refer to the page http://lestis.homes/refunds-policy

3. Referral Program (Word-of-Mouth and Fee Zeroing)

Word-of-Mouth Incentive: The Customer has the right to invite other owners of Accommodation Facilities (third parties) to subscribe to the Platform.

Referral Code: For correct identification, the Customer (Referrer) must provide their unique referral code (available in the Platform's reserved area) to the invited Host (Referral). The Referral must enter this code in the dedicated field during registration and subscription. Referrals whose codes were not entered during registration will not be recognized.

Applied Discount: For every Referral's annual subscription that is active and paying (without having been refunded) at the time of the Referrer's subscription renewal, the Referrer earns a discount of €10.00 (ten euros) on their own annual Subscription Fee.

Fee Zeroing: The cumulative discount from active and paying Referrals is applied to the Referrer's annual Subscription Fee until it is completely zeroed. The total amount of discounts cannot exceed the cost of the Fee itself and does not entitle the Referrer to any excess cash refund or credit. The discount is valid exclusively for the current annual Subscription Fee.

Discount Duration: The discount remains on the Referrer's Subscription Fee as long as the Referral's subscription remains active and paying. In case of cancellation or non-renewal by the Referral, the corresponding €10.00 discount is removed from the Referrer's annual renewal.

4. Term, Renewal, and Termination

- Minimum Term: The Agreement has the duration of the chosen subscription period (e.g., 1 month or 12 months) starting from the activation date.

- Renewal and Cessation: The Agreement renews automatically and only upon receipt of payment for the subsequent subscription period. Non-receipt of payment by the due date results in the immediate cessation of the Service, without the need for formal notice or cancellation by the Customer.

- Fee Adjustment: The Provider reserves the right to adjust the Subscription Fee for subsequent renewal periods, notifying the Customer of such change with at least 30 days prior notice before the expiration date of the current period. Payment of the Fee for the subsequent period implies acceptance of the new price.

- Termination for Breach: The Provider reserves the right to terminate the Agreement with immediate effect in the event of serious breach by the Customer (e.g., violation of intellectual property rights, fraud, etc.).

- Data Return: In case of termination or cessation, The Provider undertakes to allow the export of Customer data for a period of 30 days, after which the data will be permanently deleted (subject to legal obligations).

5. Provider Obligations (SLA and Updates)

- Uptime: The Provider guarantees a minimum service availability level (SLA) of 99.5% on a monthly basis. Scheduled maintenance interruptions (with prior notice) are excluded from the uptime calculation.

- Maintenance and Updates: The Provider manages corrective and evolutionary maintenance. All new features developed and implemented in the Platform during the validity period of the Subscription Fee are included in the Customer's use license at no additional cost.

- Support: The Provider provides technical assistance via ticket or email. Support does not include specific training on Accommodation Facility management or external services.

6. Customer Obligations and Limitation of Liability

The Customer is required to honor all confirmed bookings and to ensure that the accommodation and services faithfully match the descriptions provided on the Platform.
