For the delivery of the Order, the Client enters into a Delivery Agreement directly with the Delivery Partner.

2.3. By operating the Bolt Food Platform and the Marketplace, Bolt acts only as a provider of the information society service and is neither a party to the Sales Agreement or the Delivery Agreement, being involved in invoicing the services in its own name, but on the account of the Delivery Partner. Bolt is not the manufacturer or seller of the Goods or provider of the delivery services and is not liable in any way for the performance of the Sales Agreement or the Delivery Agreement.
2.4. By operating the Bolt Food Platform, the Client acknowledges that every Delivery Partner and/or Partner who offers its goods and services via the Bolt Food Platform has authorised Bolt to act as its commercial agent in relation to any Delivery Agreement and/or Sales Agreement. Bolt has a right to negotiate the Delivery Agreement and/or the Sales Agreement with the Client, including, but not limited to, collect the Delivery Fee and/or Goods Price or other fees payable by the Client (including packaging fees and Small Order Fee) under the Delivery Agreement and/or Sales Agreement, if these are paid via an in-app payment or, when applicable, in cash to the Delivery Partner or Partner. In the case of the Delivery Agreement, Bolt has the right to issue invoices in the name of Bolt (but on behalf of the Delivery Partner).
2.5. All Partners manufacture or sell the Goods and all Delivery Partners provide the delivery services on an independent basis as economic and professional service providers. All Partners and Delivery Partners acting on the Bolt Food Platform shall be considered traders within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2005/29.

Nevertheless, Bolt is entitled to remove any allegedly illegal content after the receipt of a notice regarding the existence of such content on the Bolt Food Platform.
2.8. Bolt is entitled to suspend, for a reasonable period of time and after having issued a prior warning, the processing of notices and complaints by the Clients who frequently submit manifestly unfounded notices or complaints about alleged illegal content on the Bolt Food Platform. While assessing the circumstances for the suspension, Bolt considers the following:
2.8.1. the absolute numbers of items of manifestly illegal content or manifestly unfounded notices or complaints, submitted within a month; and
2.8.2. the relative proportion of notices and complaints in relation to the total number of items of information provided or notices submitted within a month; and
2.8.3. the gravity of the misuse of the notice action mechanisms; and
2.8.4. (if applicable) the intention of the complainant for submitting manifestly unfounded complaints.
3. ORDERING GOODS THROUGH BOLT FOOD PLATFORM
3.1. The Client can select and order Goods through the Bolt Food Platform or from the Partner’s staff at the Partner’s establishment in case of Pay and Go.

The Partner may contact the Client in order to agree on changes to the Order and offer to replace Goods that are unavailable.. If no agreement is reached, the Order will be cancelled and the Client will not be charged for the Order or (where applicable) the Order Price will be returned to the Client in full. If the Client agrees to replace the Goods, the Client will pay the original Goods Price displayed at check-out, regardless of the price of the replacement Goods. This clause does not apply where Bolt has enabled the Partner to offer replacements via an in-app solution. In such cases, the Partner may accept Orders with unavailable items, contact the Client to offer replacements, and inform them of any price differences due to Goods replacement. If the Client agrees, the Order will proceed with the replacements. If not, the missing items will be removed or, if the Client does not wish to continue the Order without the removed Goods, the Order will be canceled. In any case, the Client will not pay more than the amount shown as the initial Order Price at the Order check-out.
3.2. The Client has a right to receive Goods which comply with their description set out in the Bolt Food Platform and any specific requests or requirements made by the Client (e.g. regarding ingredients or preparation) are not binding on the Partner. In case the Goods contain food and in case of doubt regarding any allergies that the Client may have to any such Goods, the Client is to contact the Partner for further information. Photos of Goods provided on the Bolt Food Platform might not entirely match the actual Goods offered.

If the Client fails to provide such ID, refuses the ID check, or is found not to meet the legal age requirement, the relevant Order shall be deemed canceled, and the Sales Agreement with respect to the age-restricted products shall be considered null and void. In such cases, the Client shall not be entitled to receive the age-restricted products. Furthermore, in case the Client wants to order products requiring age verification, he/she must confirm and/or prove his/her age as part of the ordering process. The Delivery Partner delivering the Order and/or the Partner in case of self pick-up by the Client, Order and Pay or Pay and Go may refuse to hand over the products requiring age verification, if the Client shows signs of intoxication. In case the delivery of the age-restricted product(s) is refused due to reasons described above, Bolt has the right to charge from the Client two times the Delivery Fee as compensation for having to return the age-restricted product(s) to the Partner.
3.5. All Partners are displayed to the Client in a ranked sequence. The main parameters are:

3.5.6. Similarity of previous Orders of the Client. The Partner offering similar Goods to the previous Orders of the Client will more likely get a higher position on the Bolt Food Platform.
3.6. In case the User searches for specific Goods, the search results will be displayed to the User based on the following main parameters: Partner’s opening hours, User’s search term (i.e. text-based relevance) and distance from the delivery address. Furthermore, Bolt at its own discretion is entitled to create temporary rankings that may be based on the following: existence of the menu campaigns, newness of the Partner on the Bolt Food Platform, location, user preferences, or other editorial curation.

These restrictions are apparent via the interface of the Bolt Food Platform (e.g., the available Partners based on the location). Bolt does not provide the services in all jurisdictions. As the availability of Bolt’s services may change from time to time, there is no concrete list of the jurisdictions.
10.8. Bolt provides the services which are designed, delivered, and support compliance with industry standards and best practices, such as ISO 27001/27002, whenever feasible and not in conflict with other agreed requirements.
10.9. The use of the Bolt Food Platform and all legal relations formed thereunder will be governed by the laws of Romania. The statutory provisions on the limitation of the choice of law and on the applicability of mandatory provisions, in particular of the state in which the Client has his/her habitual residence as a consumer, shall remain unaffected (Article 6 (1) Rome I Regulation).
10.10. If the respective dispute resulting from these General Terms cannot be settled by negotiations, then the dispute will be finally solved in Romania. If the Client changes his/her place of residence or habitual residence out of Romania or the Client’s place of residence or habitual residence is not known at the time the action is brought, the exclusive place of jurisdiction shall be Bolt’s registered office (Bucharest, Romania).
10.11. Where versions of these General Terms exist in any other language, the English language version shall prevail.
