5. Contractual relationships

5.1 There are important differences in how the contractual relationships operate for the different categories of Services we provide:

5.1.1 In relation to Taxi Bookings:

(a) Gett provides you with Intermediary Services only. This means that Gett only acts as an agent/intermediary to connect the User and the Taxi Driver. Gett is not a party to the separate and independent contract between the User and the Taxi Driver for the performance of the Taxi Journey (which applies to your journey in the same way as if you hailed the Taxi in the street).

(b) The Taxi Driver is solely responsible for, and Gett accepts no liability in relation to, the provision of the Taxi Journey to you by the Taxi Driver.

(c) Gett acts as (i) the Taxi Driver’s commercial agent when collecting the portion of the Charges payable by the User to the Taxi Driver; and (ii) as the Taxi Driver’s selling agent when offering the Taxi Driver’s services through the Gett Platform. For the avoidance of doubt, Gett is acting as agent on behalf of the Taxi Driver in those two circumstances only and for those limited purposes only.

5.1.2 In relation to PHV Bookings:

(a) Gett provides you with Principal Services. This means that Gett contracts directly with you in relation to the Booking, and subcontracts the performance of the PHV Journey to a third-party PHV Operator. When providing Principal Services, Gett purchases and resells the PHV Journey from the PHV Operator to the User.

(b) Gett’s responsibilities and liability to you in relation to PHV Journeys are further explained in clause 19.3.

6. User obligations

6.1 The obligations in this clause 6 (the User Obligations) apply to all Users (and Third Party Passengers for whom they are responsible in accordance with clause 15.5).

6.2 You must be at least 18 years of age to set up an Account and use any of the Services (provided that minors may use Transportation Services only if accompanied by a responsible adult).

6.3.4 notify us immediately if you believe a Fulfilment Partner has breached any of their obligations to you or any Applicable Laws.

6.4 User Conduct

In relation to all Bookings, you must:

i. wear a seatbelt at all times while in the vehicle;

ii. not transport (i) any goods of high value (whether or not accompanied by a User), or (ii) any illegal or dangerous goods;

6.6 A Fulfilment Partner is entitled to refuse to provide Transportation Services (including cancelling a Booking) if they, in their reasonable discretion, believe that a User or Third Party Passenger has breached or intends to breach any of the User Obligations. Bookings cancelled as a result of a breach of the User Obligations may be subject to a cancellation fee.

6.7 Neither Gett nor the Fulfilment Partner will be liable for any Losses incurred by or caused by a User or a Third Party Passenger resulting from a breach of the User Obligations. The User is responsible for any Losses, fines, penalties, prosecutions or other sanctions resulting from the User’s or Third Party Passenger’s conduct when using the Transportation Services.

6.8 The User is solely responsible for the costs of cleaning and/or repair of damage to any property (including to the vehicle used for the Journey) in excess of normal “wear and tear”, subject to any limitations provided under Applicable Laws.

6.9 You acknowledge that your use of the Services and/or the services of any Fulfilment Partner may be temporarily suspended and/or permanently blocked in the event of sufficiently serious or persistent breaches of the User Obligations, at the sole discretion of Gett or the relevant Fulfilment Partner.

7. Booking process & driver allocation

7.1 When you submit a Booking Request, we will attempt to allocate your Booking Request to an available Fulfilment Partner. By submitting a Booking Request, you consent to your Booking Information being passed to one or more Fulfilment Partners in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

7.2 You will receive an initial Notification once your Booking Request has been received and is being processed (a Pre-Booking Confirmation). The Pre-Booking Confirmation is for information purposes only and does not indicate that a Booking Request has been formally accepted.

7.3 You will receive a further Notification (a Booking Confirmation) once your Booking Request has been formally accepted by Gett (in the case of a PHV Booking) or by the Taxi Driver (in the case of a Taxi Booking). A Booking is created at the time of the Booking Confirmation.

7.4 We will attempt to allocate a suitable Fulfilment Partner to your Booking Request based on location, Driver availability and a range of other factors. We cannot guarantee that any Drivers will be available at any given time, that your Booking Request will be accepted, that your requested pick-up or drop-off locations will be viable, or that you will be allocated the nearest Driver.

7.5 Once a Booking Request has been accepted by a Fulfilment Partner, the User’s current location (if shared by the User, in accordance with the settings in the App) and certain limited personal information, required for identification purposes and to facilitate communication, is shared with the Fulfilment Partner. The User also has the ability to contact the Driver directly. For more information on how User data is processed and shared with Fulfilment Partners and Drivers, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

8. Cancellations

8.1 If a Booking is cancelled, a cancellation fee may be payable in accordance with our Fee Policy.

8.2 Occasionally we or a Fulfilment Partner may need to cancel or amend a Booking and/or create a replacement Booking. If that happens, we will notify you through the App and, if required, attempt to find another Fulfilment Partner to carry out your Booking. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so in all cases and we reserve the right to cancel any Booking without compensation to you.

9. Fares, fees & charges

9.1 By using the Services, you agree to pay the Charges plus any applicable VAT. To the extent VAT is chargeable, it will be clearly indicated within the Gett Platform at the time of booking whether the Charges shown are inclusive or exclusive of VAT (and where not expressly indicated, the amount will be exclusive of VAT).

9.2 Fare estimates

9.2.1 Before submitting a Booking Request through the Gett Platform, the User will be provided with an estimate of the cost of the Booking (a Fare Estimate) based on the information provided in the Booking Request. We will attempt to provide a Fare Estimate that is as accurate as possible based on the information available at the time of calculation, but the User will always remain responsible for paying the total Charges incurred after each Booking, including (i) any Extras that were not included or only partially included in the Fare Estimate, even if they were ascertainable at the time of the Booking Request, and (ii) the total final Base Fare for the Journey, including any adjustments to reflect changes made after the Booking was accepted in accordance with clause 9.2.2.

9.2.2 The original Fare Estimate will be invalidated if you request changes to the original route, destination or other changes such as unscheduled stops. For any changes requested via the App (for example, an updated destination or additional stop), an updated Fare Estimate will be provided via the App. The Base Fare for a PHV Booking may be adjusted during or after completion of the Booking if reasonably required to account for significant changes to the actual distance travelled, duration of the Journey or other changes requested by the User.

9.2.3 Gett will not be responsible for inaccurate Fare Estimates resulting from the provision of inaccurate information by the User.

Service FeeA £1.99 fee charged by Gett for provision of the Intermediary Services.
High Demand FeeA fee charged by Gett during periods of high demand to help us ensure that the Gett Platform remains as effective as possible in finding you a Taxi Driver at these times.

Cleaning / Damage FeeA fee to cover the reasonable cost of cleaning or repair of a vehicle that has been damaged or dirtied by a User in the course of a Booking. The fee may be subject to a cap set by the local licensing authority, and may be included in the Meter Fare if permitted under local licensing regulations.

You acknowledge that, for legal purposes, the Taxi Driver assigns their payment claim against a User to Gett under a contract between Gett and the Taxi Driver, and by placing a Taxi Booking, the User agrees to such assignment. Gett is not a provider of payment services to the User or to the Taxi Driver, but we facilitate the collection by Taxi Drivers of the claims they have assigned to us.

11.2 In relation to PHV Bookings, Gett collects the Charges from the User on its own account, consistent with the provision of the Principal Services.
