Traveller Terms and conditions

Last updated: June 2019

1. Introduction

1.1 The Traveller T&C’s are a binding contract between Madeira Sweet Home and the Traveller. By using or accessing the Site www.madeirasweethome.com or Madeira Sweet Home platforms or systems and also via mobile applications (for mobile phone, tablet and other devices or interfaces) (collectively, the "Site"), you acknowledge that you agree to and are subject to the Traveller T&C’s. Services are provided via country specific URL’s, including, through the Site.  Booking payments conducted through the Site (the "Payment Services") are handled by third party payment providers and/or Madeira Sweet Home.

1.2 These terms and conditions (the "Traveler T&Cs") together with privacy Policy   govern the relationship between Madeira Sweet Home and any individual using or accessing the Site and any of the content or services available through it as a traveller or potential traveller, and who is not using it in his/her/its capacity as a property owner or property manager (each, a "Traveller" or "you"). Travellers include people who use the Site to access information about and to book properties, whether for business or leisure purposes, from property owners or property managers.  Bookings of holiday rental properties through the Site are governed by these Traveller T&C’s, whereas bookings of hotel rooms through the Site are governed by Sweet Home.

1.3 A Traveller’s booking through or use of a Madeira Sweet Home site is governed by the terms and conditions on the Madeira Sweet Home site through which the booking is finalized (and not necessarily the Madeira Sweet Home site on which the Property was originally listed).  If there are any conflicts between the terms and conditions of the Madeira Sweet Home site you found the Property on and the terms and conditions of the Madeira Sweet Home site you finalize a booking through, the terms and conditions of the Madeira Sweet Home site where the booking is finalized will govern and prevail. If you do not fully agree to the Traveller T&Cs, you are not authorized to access or otherwise use the Site.

1.4 Madeira Sweet Home does not authorize anyone to register with this Site unless they are able to enter into legally binding contracts. As a consequence, the Services may only be used by persons aged 18 and over.

1.5 Madeira Sweet Home may revise these Traveller T&Cs from time to time for reasons such as a technical development, a change in business operations, new or amended or discontinued products or features, or due to a change in applicable laws. You will be provided with 15 days’ notice in advance of any changes to any of the terms of these Traveller T&Cs or our decision to terminate these Traveller T&Cs.  We will inform you of such changes or termination via your email address. You should visit this page periodically to view the most current Traveller T&Cs because they are binding on you.

1.6 Madeira Sweet Home may ask you to provide it with personal information directly. For example, Madeira Sweet Home may ask you to provide your contact details such as full name, telephone number and email address, in order to enable your Property booking. For more information about the personal data we collect and your rights, please read our Privacy Policy.

2. The Basics

2.1 This Site is a place where Travellers can view listings of, and obtain information about, properties offered for rent ("Properties") by others, including property owners, lessees and managers, (each, a "Partner" and collectively with a Traveller, the "users"). We may also offer other tools or services to allow users to communicate with each other and to enter into rental agreements or other transactions with each other.

2.2 The Site acts only as a venue for users to interact with each other. Rental contracts are concluded only between the Traveller and the Partner. Madeira Sweet Home is not, and does not become, a party to any contractual relationship between the Traveller and the Partner and does not mediate between the Traveller and the Partner in the event of any dispute arising between them. You acknowledge and agree that the Traveller and the Partner will be responsible for performing the obligations of any such agreements, between the Traveller and the Partner, that Madeira Sweet Home is not a party to such agreements, is not acting as an agent on behalf of Partners and disclaims all liability arising from or related to any such agreements.  This is true even if the Site facilitates a booking for a Property or the use of other tools, services or products, as Madeira Sweet Home is not a party to any rental or other agreement between Travellers and Partners, and the Partners are not considered as Madeira Sweet Home service providers Madeira Sweet Home is not an organizer or retailer of travel packages under Directive (EU) 2015/2302.

2.3 Partners may be either individual property Partners acting on a consumer to consumer basis, or property managers operating on a business to consumer basis.  If you enter into a rental agreement with a Partner on a consumer to consumer basis, please be aware that consumer law will not apply in relation to your contract with the Partner.  The Partner is solely responsible for determining whether or not they are operating as a consumer or a business and for any representations they make to Travellers with respect to their status.

2.4 Travellers are responsible for, and agree to abide by, all laws, rules and regulations applicable to their use of the Site, their use of any tool, service or product offered on the Site and any transaction they enter into either on the Site or in connection with their use of the Site. Travellers should please note that Partners are responsible for and agree to abide by all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the listing and rental of their Property and to the conduct of their rental property business. Please be aware that, even though we are not a party to any rental transaction and assume no liability for legal or regulatory compliance pertaining to any Property Listed on the Site, there may be circumstances where we are nevertheless obligated to provide information relating to any listing in order to comply with governmental or regulatory bodies investigations, litigation or administrative proceedings.

2.5 Madeira Sweet Home charges a service fee payable by Travellers who book a Property on the Site via the Site checkout (the "Service Fee"). The service fee covers the use of the Site, including such features as 24/7 support, and is calculated as a percentage of the total rental amount (which may include additional fees and damage deposits charged by the Partner). Depending on the laws of the jurisdiction where the Traveller and/or Partner resides, the service fee may be subject to (or may include) VAT, Stay Taxes (as detailed in section 2.8), or any other equivalent indirect taxes that are applicable.  Partners agree not to encourage or advise a Traveller to avoid or circumvent the service fee charged by Madeira Sweet Home, and Traveller agrees not to avoid or circumvent the service fee.

2.6 Madeira Sweet Home may be required to collect and remit taxes (inclusive of VAT, sales taxes, or other equivalent taxes) on the Service Fee. Where required, Madeira Sweet Home will provide the Traveller with an invoice stating the amount of taxes charged on such Service Fee. If the Traveller is entitled to an exemption from indirect taxes or their equivalent on the Service Fee, it must provide Madeira Sweet Home with required documentation and support for such exemption.

2.7 If the Traveller is a business traveller that is VAT registered or an employee of a company that will reimburse VAT charged, it must provide Madeira Sweet Home with the valid VAT number and its related billing address, in order for Madeira Sweet Home to apply the reverse charge mechanism, where applicable, to the Service Fee.  If the Traveller has a billing address in the UK, the reverse charge mechanism is not applicable and a UK VAT charge will apply.

2.8 Collection and remittance of the Stay Tax: Travellers are liable for the payment of Stay Tax (as defined below), The laws in jurisdictions may vary, but these taxes may be required to be collected and remitted as a percentage of the Rental Amount set by Partners, a set amount per day, amount based on number of guests, or other variations, and are sometimes called "transient occupancy taxes," "hotel taxes," "lodging taxes," "city taxes," "room taxes" or "tourist taxes" ("Stay Taxes"). In certain jurisdictions, such as France, only Travellers aged 18 and over are liable for the payment of Stay Tax.  Other exceptions to the payment of the Stay Tax might apply, in such event the Traveller shall claim a refund to the relevant local authority in charge of collecting the Stay Tax.  In certain jurisdictions, where the law authorizes this, Madeira Sweet Home may directly collect and remit the Stay Tax on behalf of the Partners. In such case, the Partners will have no action to take regarding the collection from the Travellers and the remittance to the city of this Stay Tax.

2.9 The Site is made up of Property Listings provided by Partners and content from other third parties. Such content is the responsibility of the Partner or third party creator of the content. We have no responsibility for such content as we are merely providing access to the content as a service to you and providing you with the facility to communicate directly with the Partner to enquire about a Property and make bookings with the Partner for the rental of such Property. All bookings you make are made directly with the Partner and your contract will be only with the Partner. Any such contract will govern your right to occupy and use the Property and may contain obligations to pay additional fees and taxes. Madeira Sweet Home is not a party to any such contract and Madeira Sweet Home has no liability to you for the Partner’s provision of the Property. We do not endorse, support, represent or guarantee the truthfulness, accuracy or reliability of any information in the Listings on the Site or any opinions/content posted by third parties. Further to clause 10, and in application of the webhosting status, Madeira Sweet Home will remove the content if it becomes aware or is notified that the content is illegal.

3. Property Listings and Interaction with Partners

3.1 Please note that Partners are entirely responsible for all of the information, including images, text and other content, relating to the Properties they offer ("Listings"), for updating them and ensuring (where relevant) that they are correctly translated.

3.2 If a Traveller finds a Property of interest, an information request can be sent to the Partner (an "Enquiry" or "Enquiries") stating the traveller’s name along with any requested information, without having to log in to the Site for that purpose.  We may offer different email newsletters from time to time intended to enhance the services we offer. Travellers have the choice whether or not to receive marketing email communications from Madeira Sweet Home, and may cancel their subscription to these email newsletters at any time through Madeira Sweet Home site , although it may take a short while for the changes in preferences to become effective.

3.3 The Traveller will receive a confirmation from Madeira Sweet Home once an Enquiry has been sent to the Partner.

3.4 The Partner may then communicate with the Traveller directly in connection with the Enquiry and Travellers and Partners may also communicate with each other via the Site (and via other tools on the Madeira Sweet Home platform).

3.5 Where a Partner has enabled online bookings, Traveller will be able to make a booking online, which shall be approved or declined by the Partner within 24 hours.   For online payment, a Traveller whose booking was confirmed by the Partner will be able to pay with their credit card through the payments gateway offered by our third party payment provider and/or Madeira Sweet Home Payments. The online payment service is subject to the terms and conditions of the third party payment provider or, in the case of Madeira Sweet Home Payments, the Accommodation Fee Collection Agreement and Traveller agrees and acknowledges that (with exception of Madeira Sweet Home Payments’ obligations pursuant to the Accommodation Collection Fee Agreement) Madeira Sweet Home has no control over or any responsibility for this service.

3.6 Communications between Travellers and Partners using the Madeira Sweet Home platform must not include email addresses or phone numbers. Please be aware that any communication on the Site (or through the Madeira Sweet Home platform) will be available for viewing by Madeira Sweet Home employees and representatives in order to comply with its obligations due to its webhosting status and to monitor for compliance with the Traveller T&Cs.

3.7 Madeira Sweet Home may, from time to time, use third party e-mail servers to enable us to send and track receipt of the Enquiry emails, and analyze the pattern of Enquiry usage reported by these third party tracking systems. Our system does not store messages indefinitely but for a 3-years period only, and such messages may not be accessible after having been delivered to you. Please print a copy of any message which is important to you – for example a payment receipt or a booking confirmation.

3.8 Partners and Travellers are solely responsible for the content of their communications between each other.

4. Ranking and Appearance in Search Results

Madeira Sweet Home cannot guarantee that any Listing will appear in any specific order in search results on a Site. Search order will fluctuate automatically depending on filters used by travellers, traveller preferences, as well as Partners' "Ranking" which may consist of the attributes of the property, the quality of the experience provided and the compensation paid for bookings. Attributes of a property are evaluated based on a variety of factors such as traveller feedback, amenities, and the location of a property.  The quality of the experience is based on a variety of factors such as calendar accuracy, Partner response times and booking acceptance, online booking and online payments capability, rate consistency and quality stay experience. The compensation paid for bookings is also a factor for the relative ranking of properties with similar offers, based on the relevance factors described above. If a listing is placed on a subscription basis, search results may also vary depending on the search criteria used by a particular Traveller. Madeira Sweet Home reserves the right to apply automatically various search algorithms or to use methods to optimize Ranking results for particular Travellers’ experiences and the overall marketplace.  Listings distributed on third party sites are not guaranteed to display on such third party site in any particular order or at all. Search results and order may appear different on Madeira Sweet Home mobile application than they appear on its website. To optimize the search experience for both Partners and Travellers and improve the Ranking Process, Madeira Sweet Home retains the right to run occasional tests that will be limited in duration but may alter how we display Listings and search results.

5.  Registration and establishing an Account
