1. GENERAL

1.1. Bounce provides an online platform for Partners who have available storage space at their Partnering Location(s) to connect with Customers who wish to store their personal belongings. The Bounce Platform also allows Partners to connect with Customers who wish to have their personal belongings delivered and picked up at such locations, subject to a separate delivery services agreement with Bounce. Bounce may provide such services directly. Bounce may also make available Lockers at locations managed by Bounce or at Partnering Location(s). These Lockers may be owned or operated by Bounce or by third-party operators, as applicable.

1.2. These terms and conditions (the “Terms”) cover your access and use of the Bounce Platform. You must read carefully and agree to the Terms prior to accessing and using the Bounce Platform. Your agreement to these Terms establishes a legal agreement between you and Bounce. These Terms expressly supersede prior agreements or arrangements between you and Bounce. Each of Bounce and Partner is referred to in these Terms as a “Party” and collectively as “the Parties”.

1.3. These Terms apply to the extent they do not conflict with any other terms that specifically apply to the Services. From time to time, you may be asked to agree to additional terms. 

2. GENERAL OBLIGATIONS

2.1. To be displayed on the Bounce Platform, Partners must provide Bounce with all information and materials reasonably necessary to complete a profile of a Partner all and Partnering Locations operated or associated with the Partner on the Bounce Platform, including the Partner’s logo, email address, a description, and pictures of the Partnering Location(s), hours of operation, and other relevant information, which may be provided manually or through an integration (collectively, the “Profile Information”).

2.2. Each Partner must ensure that all information made available to Customers about the Partnering Location(s) or access to Services at such locations is accurate and kept up to date at all times. Partners must promptly notify Bounce and Customers about any change or condition that may prevent or materially affect Customer access to a Partnering Location or to Services offered at such location, whether communicated verbally, in writing, or through an integration, including but not limited to changes of opening hours, permanent or temporary closure of Partnering Location(s), access restrictions, suspension of Services or Partner’s cancellation of their  Bounce Partner’s account.

2.3. If a Partner modifies its opening hours and this affects or will affect an existing or future Booking, the Partner must immediately contact Bounce at partnersupport@bounce.com. If a Partnering location is closed when a Customer arrives or if a Partner otherwise fails to fulfill its obligations under an existing Booking, including but not limited to, closing earlier than the advertised time and holding up Customer’s Property at a Partnering Location, the defaulting Partner will not receive any Commission or other fee(s) for this Booking. The defaulting Partner may also be liable to Bounce for costs associated with its unfulfilled obligations under an existing Booking. These costs may include, but are not limited to, the cost of shipping Customer’s Property to Customer’s location and related claims from a Customer who was not able to retrieve its personal belongings due to Partner’s failure to fulfill its obligations under an existing Booking. For the avoidance of doubt, Section 2.3 does not apply to Lockers hosted at a Partnering Location, which are governed by Section 7 below.

2.3.1. If the Commission has already been paid, the defaulting Partner will be liable for an amount equivalent to the payable Commission and/or other fee(s) and/or costs associated with its unfulfilled obligations which may be set off against, and deducted from the next Commissions payable to the defaulting Partner or from Commission(s) which were already paid to the defaulting Partner.

2.3.2. If the Commission has not been paid yet, the defaulting Partner will be liable for an amount equivalent to the payable Commission and/or other fee(s) and/or cost(s) associated with its unfulfilled obligations, which may be set off against, and deducted from existing Commission payable to the defaulting Partner.

2.3.3. Bounce also reserves its right to cancel the defaulting Partner’s account in case a Partner fails to fulfill its obligations under an existing Booking even after a reasonable period has been set for the Partner to fulfill their obligations following a reminder, if the obligations are still not fulfilled after the reminder period has passed.

2.4. Each Partner acknowledges and agrees that it will (i) not participate in any third-party service, website, app, or platform that offers the same or similar Services as Bounce and/or (ii) set up its own service, website, app or platform that offers the same or similar Services as Bounce while it is bound by these Terms and for one (1) year after the termination of these Terms by either Party. This restriction does not apply to Services, websites, and mobile applications powered by Bounce and/or affiliated with Bounce.

2.5. Each Partner acknowledges and agrees that it will not provide Services to any Customer or person introduced by Bounce other than through the Bounce Platform.

2.6. Partner shall not make any inaccurate statements concerning the quality, performance, or other characteristics of the Bounce Platform or the Services.

2.7. If Partner breaches Sections 2.4, 2.5, and/or 2.6, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies it may have, Bounce may (i) require the full refund of the Commissions paid or payable to Partner by Bounce and/or (ii) cancel the Bounce Partner’s account immediately.

2.8. Partners agree to prominently post Marketing Materials provided by Bounce.

2.8.1. Partners will be provided with reasonable quantities of Marketing Materials. Partners agree not to alter Marketing Materials.

2.8.2. Marketing Materials remain the property of Bounce and shall be returned to Bounce upon its request. If Marketing Materials are not returned promptly after Bounce makes such a request, Partners must either (i) return Marketing Materials to Bounce and pay for the fee(s) associated with such return or (ii) ask Bounce to come and pick up all Marketing Materials at the Partnering Location(s) and pay for the costs associated with such pick-up.

2.8.3. Bounce may offer certain high-value or permanent installations, such as exterior signage or other branded fixtures (“Special Marketing Materials”) to the Partner from time to time.

(a) Where the Partner agrees to receive or display any Special Marketing Materials, the Partner acknowledges that such materials may involve additional production or installation costs incurred by Bounce. If, after installation, the Partner later chooses to remove or modify these materials without a valid justification, Bounce may recover a reasonable portion of those costs, including production, licensing, or installation expenses. Any recovery shall be limited to the actual costs incurred and may be deducted from the Partner’s Commissions in accordance with Section 5 (Financial Provisions). If the Partner’s Commissions do not fully cover these costs, Bounce may request direct reimbursement for the remaining balance.

(b) Special Marketing Materials must remain installed and visible for a minimum period of two (2) years from the date of installation, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Bounce.

(c) The Partner may refuse to install or remove Special Marketing Materials only if required by applicable law, regulation, or an order from a competent authority, and must provide official documentation evidencing such restriction(s). Bounce reserves the right to verify the validity of such justification.

(d) Any breach of this subsection may result in suspension or termination of the Partner’s account and reimbursement obligations as described above.

2.9. Any behavior involving violence, sexual misconduct, harassment, fraud, discrimination, deceptive, illegal, or unsafe activity while using the Bounce Platform can result in the immediate loss of your access to the Bounce Platform. When law enforcement is involved, Bounce will use its best efforts to cooperate with their investigation.

2.9.1. Fraudulent activity may include but is not limited to creating dummy accounts for fraudulent purposes; claiming fraudulent Commission(s) or charge(s); intentionally requesting fraudulent or falsified Bookings; actions intended to disrupt or manipulate the normal functioning of Bounce Platform or Lockers, disputing Commission(s) or charge(s) for fraudulent or illegitimate reasons; creating improper duplicate accounts; or falsifying documents, records, or other data for fraudulent purposes.

3. SAFETY AND SECURITY

3.1. Each Partner will use reasonable care to protect and maintain the security of all Customer Property stored at the Partnering Location(s) and ensure it remains safe. 

3.2. Customers shall not use the Services to store Prohibited Items, as listed in the Terms of Service. Partners may inspect Customer Property in the Customer’s presence and may require Customers to certify that the Customer’s Property does not include any Prohibited Items listed in the Terms of Service. If the Partner has reason to believe that Customer Property is or contains a Prohibited Item, the Partner may refuse to store at the Partnering Location such Customer Property in its reasonable discretion and without responsibility to Customer. The Partner must immediately report such rejection and the reason for such rejection to Bounce, along with any other suspicious activity Partner identifies with respect to Customer Property, Partner’s safety, and/or security by contacting partnersupport@bounce.com.

3.3. Items and Customer’s Property stored in Lockers at locations managed by Bounce or by Partnering Locations may be subject to limitations relating to size, dimensions, and permitted items, as determined by Bounce, the Partnering Location, or the Locker operator. Such limitations will be communicated to Customers via the Bounce Platform prior to a Booking or available online. 

4. QUALITY STANDARD

4.1. Partners agree to maintain a high standard of quality for the Services. A high standard of quality includes, but is not limited to, maintaining high-quality at the Partnering Locations’ premises, high Customer ratings and number of satisfactory Customer reviews, having a low number of unserved Bookings, and not accepting Bookings and Customers outside the Bounce Platform.

5. PAYMENT AND COMMISSION

5.1. Partners explicitly agree that all financial transactions between the Parties will be processed by Stripe, a third-party electronic money institution that provides a payment system, embedded in the Bounce Platform. Payment processing services for Partners are provided by Stripe and are subject to Stripe Connected Account Management, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively, the “Stripe Services Agreement”). Partners are required to complete the Stripe Connect Onboarding and shall add their payment and business details into Stripe to allow for the direct deposit of Commissions relating to the Services.

5.2. By agreeing to these Terms, you agree to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement. You agree to provide Bounce with accurate and complete information about you and your business, and you authorize us to share information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe.

5.3. Bounce is not regulated by any financial supervisory authority. All payment services that require an authorization, license, or registration are provided by Stripe. Bounce is not a payment services provider in the terms defined by Directive (EU) 2015/2366 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2015 on payment services in the internal market (“PSD2”). Bounce acts as a technical service provider, by supporting, via the Bounce Platform, the provision of payment services by Stripe, in the terms defined by Article 3(j) PDS2.

5.4. The right to receive the respective Commission(s) is earned after a Customer completes payment for the Service(s) and after the Partner has performed the Service(s). To the extent permitted by law, any Customer chargebacks will result in the reversal of payment and associated chargeback fees. In no event shall Bounce be obligated to reimburse Partners for any expenses incurred by Partners in performing their obligations under these Terms other than those Bounce agreed to cover.

5.5. Provided that Partners have fully completed the Stripe Connect Onboarding, entered their payment and business details into Stripe, and respected their obligations under these Terms and any other applicable terms, the payment of Commission is made to Partners at the beginning of each month. Commissions will be paid in the agreed-upon currency and subject to all applicable laws and regulations.

5.6. Partners allow Bounce to make allowances and adjustments and write off Partners’ accounts as debts via Stripe in each case as Bounce deems advisable. To the extent permitted by law, Partners agree that Bounce may charge back to Partners’ Stripe account any amounts previously paid or credited to it with respect to such allowances, adjustments, or debts.

5.7. Under no circumstances may Partners accept or solicit payment from Customers in cash, direct bank transfer, card payments on their payment terminal, or means of payment other than those authorized by Bounce. Any breach of this Section may result in the cancellation of your Bounce account.

5.8. If Partner is found by Bounce to be knowingly involved in the acceptance or solicitation of payment directly from Customers outside the Bounce Platform, Partner agrees to (i) immediately pay Bounce the corresponding Commission that would have been due had the Booking been conducted in accordance with these Terms; (ii) reimburse Bounce for any losses, damages, costs, or expenses arising from or associated with such conduct, with the acceptance or solicitation of payment directly from Customers outside the Bounce Platform. Such conduct constitutes a material breach of these Terms and, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies, Bounce reserves the right to immediately suspend or terminate the Partner’s account and withhold or set off any outstanding Commissions in connection with such breach

6. STORAGE

6.1. Partner may accept and securely store Customer’s Property from Customers who have purchased this Service or made a Booking through the Bounce Platform at Partnering Location(s).

6.2. When requested by Customer to accept and securely store Customer Property, Partner will (i) verify Customer’s reservation by confirming the Booking confirmation sent by Bounce to the Partner through the Bounce Platform; (ii) check Customer in on Bounce Platform; (iii) identify and associate the Customer Property with the applicable Booking using tags or another tracking method approved by Bounce; (iv) store Customer Property in a secure location; (v) check Customer out on the Bounce Platform and (vi) return Customer Property in the same condition as it was received to Customer upon Customer’s request and presentation of the relevant bookings or tag(s). Exceptionally, Partners may have to transfer Customer Property to Bounce or its authorized courier for transportation, per Bounce’s instructions. Partners may be required to transfer Customer Property to Bounce or its authorized courier for transportation, in connection with the provision of the Services, in accordance with Bounce’s instructions, whether pursuant to a separate delivery services agreement or an ad hoc delivery service arranged by Bounce.

6.3. Partners may accept and securely store Customer Property at a Partnering Location(s) even if the Customer did not make a prior Booking. In this case, Partner must direct Customer to https://bounce.com to place a Booking or ask Customer to scan a QR code to record the Booking. Section 6.2 remains fully applicable even without prior Booking. 

 6.4. Partners can only accept Customer Property that has been booked before entering or accessing the Partnering Location or directly at the Partnering Location and registered via the Bounce Platform. Accepting and storing Customer Property without any records in the Bounce Platform will be considered a breach of these Terms. Doing so also exposes Partners to liability as the Bag Protection will not apply to Customer Property that has not been booked and registered via the Bounce Platform

6.4.1. If Partners accept an unbooked and unregistered Customer Property, Bounce reserves its right to delist Partners.

6.4.2. If Partners accept an unbooked and unregistered Customer Property, Bounce also reserves its right, at its sole discretion, to remove the Bag Protection for all Bookings made on the same day at the Partnering Location.

6.5. Partners shall be entitled to a Commission for each Customer’s use of the Service and Booking at the Partnering Location, and provided that these Terms are respected.

6.6. Partners have the right to dispose of any Customer Property left behind after the Customer's designated check-out date and time if no contact has been made by the Customer within three (3) business days. Partners understand and agree that Bounce is not responsible for any compensation to Partners in the event that Partners decide to retain the Customer’s Property.

7. LOCKERS

7.1. Bounce may make available Lockers for the temporary storage of Customers’ Property through the Bounce Platform. Lockers may be offered at locations managed by Bounce or at Partnering Location(s). Lockers may be owned or operated by Bounce, by a Partner, or by third-party operators, as applicable. 

7.2. Except as expressly agreed in a separate Locker-related agreement, Partners hosting Lockers at their Partnering Location(s):

- do not have to accept, handle, tag, check in, or check out Customer Property stored in Lockers;
- do not have custody or control over Customer Property stored in Lockers;
- are not required to provide customer support for Lockers; provided that

Partners may offer limited, incidental assistance, such as directing Customers to the Lockers or informing them how to initiate a booking via the Bounce Platform, and shall reasonably cooperate with Bounce or the applicable Locker operator in connection with incidents affecting access or retrieval.

7.3. Liability relating to Lockers shall be governed exclusively by the applicable Locker-related agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law. 

7.4. Where Lockers are made available to Customers at a Partnering Location, the Partner shall not unreasonably interfere with Customer access to the Lockers during the Partnering Location’s operating hours, unless otherwise required by applicable law or expressly agreed with Bounce.

7.5. Customer’s Property may be subject to additional terms set out in a separate Locker-related agreement, which may supplement or override this Section 7 with respect to commercial terms, location-specific requirements, ownership of Lockers, maintenance obligations, or other operational matters.

8. TAXES

8.1. Partners acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for determining and paying applicable taxes, accounting, and reporting requirements. Bounce cannot and will not provide any tax or accounting-related advice to Partners.

For the avoidance of doubt, Partners that own or operate Lockers are responsible for maintaining appropriate insurance coverage for such Locker operations, except as otherwise agreed in a separate Locker-related agreement.

10. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

10.1. As between the Parties, Bounce owns exclusively and retains all rights, title, and interest in and to all intellectual property rights embodied in or related to Bounce Platform, as defined above, (including Bounce’s Names, Marks, or Works) and any other materials or information provided or made available by Bounce to Partners or that Partner otherwise obtained or had access to in connection with these Terms and the Services (including but not limited to these Terms and our Frequently Asked Questions (“FAQs”).

10.2. Partners hereby grant to Bounce a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to reproduce, modify for the purpose of formatting, distribute, create derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, and otherwise use Partner’s Profile Information on Bounce Platform and otherwise in connection with marketing, offering, and providing Bounce Platform and facilitating the Services. Partner reserves all other rights, including all intellectual property rights, in and to the Profile Information.

10.3. Both Bounce and Partners shall have the right to indicate to the public that Partner is an authorized provider of Partnering Location(s), to Bounce, and to advertise the availability of the Services at such Partnering Location(s) under the Bounce Marks. Partners shall not alter or remove any Bounce Mark from any materials Bounce provides to Partners. Except as set forth in this Section, nothing contained in these Terms shall grant to Partners any right, title, or interest in any Bounce Mark, and all goodwill associated with Partners’ use of Bounce Marks hereunder shall inure solely to Bounce. At no time shall Partner challenge or assist others to challenge any Bounce Mark or the registration thereof, or attempt to register any trademarks, marks, or trade names confusingly similar to any Bounce Mark.

Partner acknowledges that in connection with the Services, Partner will have access to certain information and materials that may include, but are not limited to the Bounce Platform and Services, plans, Customers, technology, and products that are confidential and of substantial value to Bounce.

11.3.

11.4. Without limiting the foregoing, Partners shall use at least the same procedures and degree of care that it uses to prevent the disclosure and misuse of its confidential information.

11.5. In the event of termination, Partners shall not use or disclose any confidential information of Bounce for any purpose.
