2. Characteristics of the Offers
The Platform offers Users the Services referred to in Article 5.1 of the GTU.
Any User wishing to access the Services offered by the Platform must first create a User Account to become a Client.
The creation of a User Account, allowing access to the Services, is done in accordance with the conditions described in Article 6 of the GTU.
However, to access all the features offered by the Platform and the Mobile Application, and in particular to benefit from access to blurred results and views, send targeted publications and unlock discussions and interactions with other Users, the Client must subscribe to a Premium Subscription or credit their virtual wallet by purchasing a BizCoins Pack.

- reveal a blurred view or a blurred search result;
- carry out targeted advertising;
- view a message sent to them by another User;
- reveal the identity of a User who has searched for a User with a similar profile in their area.
2.2. The Premium Subscription
The Company offers on its Platform a subscription of variable duration (monthly or annual), which includes unlimited access to all Services (hereinafter the "Premium Subscription").
The Client has the option to choose a monthly Premium Subscription, payable every month, including one hundred and fifty (150) BizCoins per month, or an annual Premium Subscription payable in a single payment, including two hundred and fifty (250) BizCoins per month.
The Premium Subscription takes effect on the subscription date, that is, upon acceptance of the offer by the User.
After confirmation of the Premium Subscription details and payment validation, the Client receives a confirmation email of their subscription reminding them of the terms of use of the chosen Premium Subscription.
3. Client Obligations
The Premium Subscription is reserved for strictly personal use by the Client. Under no circumstances may it be shared with third parties.
The Client accepts and undertakes to use the Platform in compliance with applicable regulations and these GTSS and not to use the Platform in a manner likely to harm the Company, other Users or the operation of the Platform and, furthermore, not to carry out operations that could result in interrupting or disrupting the operation of the Platform or accessing private information of other Users.

The Client expressly acknowledges that by subscribing to a Premium Subscription, they are obligated to pay for it in full and for the chosen duration.

5.2. Price Modification
The Company reserves the right to modify the price of the Premium Subscription or BizCoins Packs and undertakes in this case to communicate any pricing change to the Client in advance, as well as, where applicable, the terms of acceptance of these changes.
In the event of non-acceptance of the new Premium Subscription rates by the Client, the latter may refuse the modification by terminating their Subscription before the pricing change takes effect.
Pricing changes will take effect from the new subscription period following the date of the pricing change.
5.3. Payment Methods
Payment for BizCoins Packs or the Premium Subscription is made at the time of subscription, by bank card (CB, Visa, MasterCard, American Express) via the secure payment platform Stripe.
The transaction is immediately debited from the Client's bank card after verification of its details, upon receipt of the debit authorization from the issuing company of the bank card used by the Client.
By communicating the information relating to their bank card, the Client authorizes the Company to debit their bank card for the amount corresponding to the price of the BizCoin Pack or the relevant Premium Subscription.
To this end, the Client confirms that they are the holder of the bank card to be debited, that the name on the bank card is indeed theirs and that they have the necessary authorizations to make the payment where applicable. The Client provides the sixteen digits and the expiration date of their card as well as, where applicable, the visual cryptogram numbers.
In the event of fraudulent use of their bank card on the Platform, the Client is invited to contact the Company by email at the following address: contact@biznessmatch.com.
All information exchanged to process payment is encrypted using the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol; said data cannot be detected, intercepted or used by third parties.
Payment via the secure Stripe payment system is carried out on the secure Stripe website (www.stripe.com). All information exchanged to process the payment is encrypted using the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol. This data cannot be detected, intercepted or used by third parties.
In the event that the debit of sums owed by the Client is impossible, the online sale will be immediately terminated by operation of law and the order will be cancelled.
A payment confirmation is sent by email to the Client for each order placed. The invoice is available in the User Account.
Unless the Client terminates within the non-waiver deadline indicated in the confirmation email, payment of subsequent installments will be automatically made by direct debit using the same payment method, namely the bank card whose details the Client previously provided.
It is the User's responsibility to update their bank details in a timely manner and to inform the Company thereof, as well as of any payment incidents. Failing to update their bank details (particularly in the event of a card change), the Client's account may be suspended until valid details are updated.
The Client guarantees that they have all the necessary authorizations for personal use of the selected payment method.
5.4. Payment Incident
In the event of total or partial non-payment of a single installment on the agreed date, access to the Platform is suspended until the situation is regularized. The Company will immediately inform the Client of the suspension of access to the Platform, indicating that they have a period of fifteen (15) days to regularize the situation. Failing regularization within the prescribed period, the Premium Subscription will be terminated by operation of law by the Company.
The Client will no longer be able to access their account in the event of an unresolved payment incident.

In any event, the Company shall not be liable:
- in the event of unavailability of the Platform or Services for reasons such as failure of the public electricity network, failure of wired telecommunications networks, loss of connectivity to the Internet network due to public or private operators, the causes of which arise in particular from strikes, storms, earthquakes or any other cause having the characteristics of force majeure;
- in the event of use of the Platform or Services by a Client under conditions that do not comply with the terms of these GTSS or the legislation in force;
- within the limits of the legislation in force, for any indirect damage including in particular loss of profit, data or any other loss of intangible property, even if the Company has been informed of the potential for such damages, which may arise from (i) the use or inability to use the Platform or Services or (ii) following access to the Platform and/or the Mobile Application by an unauthorized user and/or internet user.
7. Force Majeure
Neither party may be held liable to the other party in the event of non-performance of its obligations resulting from a case of force majeure. Cases of force majeure or fortuitous events are considered to be those usually recognized by the case law of the Court of Cassation.
In the event of the occurrence of a case of force majeure preventing the performance of its obligations by the Company, the contract shall be immediately suspended from the notification made by the Company to the Client, given by any means. In the same manner, the Company will inform the Client of the cessation of this event and the performance of the contract will then resume immediately on the date of this notification.

9. Non-Waiver
The failure by the Company to enforce, require the enforcement of, or rely on any of the provisions of these GTSS shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to subsequently invoke that provision or any other and/or seek compensation for any breach of that provision.
10. Severability of Clauses
If any of the provisions of these GTSS is held to be null or invalid and declared as such pursuant to a law, regulation or following a final decision of a competent court, such provision shall be deemed unwritten, without affecting the validity of the other provisions, and shall be replaced by a valid provision of equivalent effect, which the parties undertake to negotiate in good faith.
11. Modifications to these GTSS
The Company reserves the right to modify the General Terms.
In this case, the new version of the General Terms will be available on the Platform and on the Mobile Application. In any event, the Client shall be bound only by the version of the General Terms in force at the time the Client subscribes to the Subscription.
