1. DEFINITIONS

"Customer" will hereby refer to any individual or legal entity who books a service via email, telephone, or the online booking form provided by the Company. The Customer enters into a legally binding agreement upon receiving a Confirmation from Connecto, in accordance with the then-applicable Terms and Conditions.

The Customer:

• Must be at least 18 years of age and legally capable of entering into binding agreements,
• Must not have a legal restriction on entering into a contractual relationship,

"Passenger" refers to any person named in the booking form as a recipient of the transportation service. A Passenger may also be the Customer, but not necessarily. All Passengers must be at least 18 years old or accompanied by an adult and must comply with these General Terms and Conditions. A Passenger under 18 must present a duly signed consent form from a parent or legal guardian authorizing the trip (and accepting responsibility for the minor).

"Service" (also referred to as “transfer” or “ride”) is the arranged transportation of passengers by a licensed driver and vehicle, between a designated start and end location. A Service may consist of one or multiple transfers and can include mediation in organizing additional travel-related services at the Customer’s request and expense.

"Company", “Connecto”, “Our Company”, “We”, or “Us” refers to Connecto Mare d.o.o., a limited liability company based in Split, 141. brigade Hrvatske vojske, Croatia, registered in the Court Registry of Split under the company registration number: 73740861728. The Company acts exclusively as an intermediary and not as a transport provider.

"Carrier" or “Partner” refers to a professional, independent third-party transport provider contracted by the Company to perform the Service. All Carriers are legally registered and licensed in accordance with applicable national and EU regulations.

"Confirmation" is the formal booking document issued by the Company and sent via email to the Customer. It contains all relevant details from the booking form, unless stated otherwise. This document establishes the start of the contractual relationship.

In the event of any inconsistency between the Carrier’s terms and these General Terms and Conditions, the provisions herein shall prevail.

The original version of these General Terms and Conditions is drafted in English and shall be considered the legally binding version in the event of any discrepancies, inconsistencies, or doubts arising from translated versions. Croatian, German, French, Italian, and Spanish translations are provided for informational purposes only. Our Customer Support Department will provide assistance in English and Croatian, and, subject to availability, also in German, French, Italian, and Spanish.

2. ABOUT US

Connecto Mare d.o.o. is a digital booking platform based in Split, Croatia (141. brigade Hrvatske vojske 18). We operate solely as an intermediary between passengers and professional transport providers (“Carriers”).

We do not own, operate, or manage vehicles, and we do not provide transportation services ourselves.

By using our booking platform (available at www.connectotransfers.com), or by booking through telephone or email (info@connectotransfers.com / +44 20 80 89 3008), you acknowledge and agree that:

• You are entering into a direct and legally binding contract with the selected Carrier, who is solely responsible for executing the transportation service;
• Connecto is not a transport provider, or licensed operator, and does not act on behalf of any Carrier or Passenger;
• The Carrier is solely responsible for the execution, quality, legality, licensing, and safety of the transport service.

All Carriers we collaborate with are professionals, listed in their respective national business registers, and comply with legal requirements applicable to passenger transport in their jurisdiction.

While we may facilitate communication or coordinate service delivery, Connecto is not a party to the transportation contract and does not assume liability for:

• The actions or omissions of Carriers or their drivers;
• The outcome, quality, or any aspect of the transport service;
• Any damages, delays, or incidents that may occur during the transport.

Drivers engaged by Carriers are not employees or agents of Connecto.

By booking a service through our platform, you confirm that:

• You understand and accept our role as an intermediary;
• You assume full responsibility for complying with these Terms on behalf of all Passengers listed in your booking;
• You waive any claims against Connecto relating to the transport service itself, which remains under the Carrier's responsibility.

That said, although Connecto does not directly provide transportation services, we are committed to ensuring that all services booked through our platform are performed to the highest possible standard.

We carefully select our partner Carriers, monitor service quality, and actively follow up on feedback and complaints. Our goal is to offer a seamless, safe, and reliable passenger experience for every Customer and Passenger, even if the actual transport is carried out by third parties.

Our platform is intended for personal, non-commercial use only. It is strictly prohibited to resell, deep-link, scrape, replicate, or otherwise exploit any content, software, or services for commercial purposes without prior written consent.

Before placing a booking, we strongly recommend you carefully read and fully understand these Terms & Conditions, as they govern all future service contracts made via our platform. If you have any questions, please contact our Customer Support team. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not proceed with the booking.

• The completed booking form constitutes an integral part of this Agreement.

If you do not accept these General Terms and Conditions, you may not proceed with the booking, and we are under no obligation to provide you with any services.

If any part of these Terms or the booking form is unclear or raises questions, we strongly encourage you to contact our Customer Support team before completing your reservation. We will be happy to provide any information or clarification you may need.

Please note that choosing not to seek clarification does not release you from any obligations arising from these Terms and Conditions.

4. NATURE AND SCOPE OF THE SERVICE

The transfer service consists of the rental of a vehicle with a professional driver, by land or sea, for transportation between a defined pickup and drop-off location.

The maps, routes, vehicle images, and estimated travel times presented on our website are for illustrative purposes only. While we make every reasonable effort to ensure timely pickups and drop-offs in line with your booking confirmation, all timing and duration estimates are non-binding and subject to change due to external factors such as traffic, weather, or force majeure events.

Please note:

• The vehicles shown online are indicative and may differ in model, brand, or configuration. We reserve the right to assign a larger or equivalent vehicle (or multiple vehicles) of equal or higher category and capacity, without prior notice, at no additional cost.
• You are solely responsible for checking the scheduled pickup time and ensuring timely arrival at your departure point (airport, port, or station), with sufficient buffer for check-in or boarding procedures.
• In case of road closures or unexpected conditions that prevent the normal route, the Carrier may, at your explicit request, take an alternative route. Any extra costs incurred (e.g. tolls, detours) in such situations will be your responsibility.
• All transfer services are covered under the public liability insurance of the Carrier or its subcontracted provider, in accordance with applicable laws.
• Please note that SMS notifications are an optional, paid service. Only Customers who have explicitly selected this service during the booking process are entitled to receive SMS updates. SMS delivery depends on third-party mobile networks and cannot be guaranteed. In case of delayed, incomplete, or undelivered SMS messages, the email confirmation and the information available in your Confirmation will be considered the only official and valid source of information regarding your service.
• All weather data listed on our website is in Central European Time with Daylight Saving Time (CET incl. DST) included. Please note the 24-hour format in which all time data is listed, for example 08:00 means eight hours in the morning, while 14:45 means two hours and forty-five minutes in the afternoon.
• All textual content, photographs, videos, and other informational materials presented on our website are intended for illustrative purposes only. We are committed to providing accurate, complete and up-to-date information within our capabilities, so it is reasonable to expect that some of our services or their components will not be available at any given time.
• While we assume no liability for items forgotten in the vehicle, we will make every reasonable effort to determine whether the item has been left behind and, in coordination with our Carrier, arrange its return whenever feasible.

5. BOOKING PROCEDURE

By clicking the “BOOK NOW” button on our website or completing a booking via telephone or e-mail you acknowledge and fully accept these General Terms and Conditions. No other form of communication or interaction with our representatives shall be considered a valid reservation, nor shall it override or modify these Terms.

Our obligation to provide the booked service begins only upon issuance of the official Confirmation. Once the Confirmation is sent, you are contractually obligated to pay for the service in accordance with the reservation details. For evidentiary purposes, digital server records will be accepted as proof of delivery.

Upon receiving your Confirmation, you must verify the accuracy of all information provided, including travel times, locations, and contact details. While we may attempt to validate airline arrivals as a courtesy, it is solely your responsibility to ensure that all flight or travel-related information is correct. We shall not be liable for any issues arising from incorrect or incomplete booking data.

We strongly recommend that you schedule your transfer to arrive at the airport at least 2 hours prior to your flight's departure time. In addition, we advise you to add 20% to the estimated transfer duration to accommodate possible delays. For example, if the estimated duration of your transfer is 30 minutes, 20% of that is 6 minutes, so our advice would be to plan your departure to the airport 2 hours and 36 minutes before the departure of your flight.

Your contractual obligations to us end upon completion or cancellation of the service, subject to applicable cancellation terms. We recommend that you keep your Confirmation—either printed or in digital format—available during the entire transfer.

It is your sole responsibility to ensure that you meet all entry, transit, and travel requirements for your destination(s), including possession of valid documents, certificates, visas, or permits. You must comply with all local legal, immigration, and health regulations throughout your journey.

6. EQUIPMENT & EXTRAS

Customers may choose from a variety of optional services during the booking process. These extras are subject to availability, linked to the specific service booked, and clearly displayed in the booking form. Only customers who select particular extras are entitled to receive them. It is the responsibility of the customer to select and confirm these services correctly, as they may affect vehicle allocation, logistics, and pricing.

Child Seats Child safety seats — infant, child, or booster — are available upon request. We make every effort to provide age-appropriate child restraint systems based on the information provided by the customer at the time of booking. However, Connecto cannot guarantee that the provided seat will meet all specific legal or individual standards. Customers who have medical, legal, or specific comfort requirements are advised to bring their own child safety seat. Connecto disclaims all liability related to the suitability of child car seats provided.

Equipment Items such as skis, snowboards, folding bicycles, or wheelchairs must be marked in the "Extras" section of the booking form. Proper vehicle assignment depends on this declaration.

Extra Stop In Same Town Extra stop will be considered a stop in the same city and/or along the route that does not cause significant extra travel time or add significant distance to the route. The exact values are dependent on the region and if you are unsure whether your extra stop adheres to these terms please contact our Agents so we can provide you with the most up to date estimate.

Please note:

• Should the extra stop be outside the limits covered by the price of the standard extra stop a new service quote will be provided to you for your consideration.
• For transfers longer than two hours, a short stop of up to 15 minutes may be requested in emergency cases, subject to driver approval and feasibility. Such unscheduled stops are not guaranteed – This policy applies only when the “Extra Stop In Same Town” service has not been booked in advance.

SMS Driver Notification This service is only available to customers who choose it during booking. If selected, an SMS containing your driver’s name, phone number, and our office phone number will be sent approximately 30 minutes before pickup.

Meet & Greet service is available exclusively at airports. When selected, your driver will wait for you in the Arrivals hall, holding a clearly visible sign with your name (or group identifier) and will assist you with your luggage. This personalized welcome is especially convenient at busy airports.

Cancellation Protection This optional feature offers flexibility and peace of mind. If selected, customers may cancel their booking for any reason up to 3 hours prior to the scheduled pickup and receive a 100% refund of the transport service and selected extras.

• The Cancellation Protection is non-refundable.
• Cancellations made by you within 3 hours of pickup are not covered under this protection, and no refund will be issued.
• These conditions cover cancellations initiated only by you. If Connecto cancels your transfer, you will receive a full refund.

Cancellation Protection is strongly recommended for travelers with uncertain or flexible itineraries.

For complete details, see Section 10.

Tip Tipping is entirely voluntary and remains at the sole discretion of the customer.

Please review all selected extras carefully before confirming your booking. Incorrect or missing selections may cause service limitations or logistical issues. If you have questions, our Customer Support Team is available to assist before you finalize your reservation.

7. BAGGAGE ALLOWANCE

When selecting a vehicle, customers must carefully consider the total amount and size of their luggage. The standard baggage allowance per seat includes:

• One medium-sized suitcase (approximately 56cm x 45cm x 25cm)
• One piece of hand luggage

The total passenger count and luggage quantity must not exceed the selected vehicle’s capacity. For luggage of different dimensions, take into account the permitted amount of luggage and the number of passengers. If you are uncertain whether your luggage fits the selected vehicle, please consult our Customer Support before finalizing your booking.

For example, if you have chosen an 8-passenger / 8-seater vehicle for a 4-passenger transfer, you are allowed to bring 8 medium suitcases and 8 pieces of hand luggage.

If, at pickup, the actual number of passengers or items of luggage exceeds what was stated in your booking and the assigned vehicle cannot accommodate them, you must immediately contact Customer Support. We will make a reasonable effort to source an alternative vehicle, subject to availability and additional price adjustments. Once you accept the revised price, we will issue an amended Confirmation.

If an appropriate vehicle is not available or you decline / fail to pay the additional amount, you (and/or your party) are responsible—at your own cost—for arranging transport or storage for the excess passengers and/or luggage. In that case, we will perform the service only up to the originally booked capacity, and no refund or compensation is due for any unused portion of the service.

If you choose to cancel the service due to these changes, the Cancellation policy will apply.

To avoid inconvenience, please ensure that your booking accurately reflects the total number of passengers and all luggage requirements.

8. WAITING TIME

Our drivers will wait for you at the designated pick-up location at the time specified in your booking Confirmation. The waiting time included in your booking depends on the location:

• Airports: Includes up to 60 minutes of free waiting time from the actual landing time of your flight.
• All other locations: Includes up to 30 minutes of free waiting time from the scheduled pick-up time stated in your Confirmation.

If your flight, train, or ferry arrives earlier than expected, please wait until the scheduled pick-up time. If your flight is delayed, the free waiting time will begin from the updated arrival time.

Additional waiting time must be requested by calling the Customer Support Department at the number provided in the Confirmation. It will be provided to you and confirmed by the Customer Support Department if it does not jeopardize the daily schedule of the Carrier. If granted, additional waiting is charged per started hour from the time when the free waiting period expires and according to the following tariffs:

Tariffs for countries not listed above will be provided to you by our Customer Support upon request.

9. PAYMENT METHODS

We offer standard payment methods, including credit cards (Amex, Visa, Mastercard), cash, and bank transfers. However, please note that not all payment methods are available for every service, and availability will be clearly indicated during the booking process.

For reservations paid in cash, it is your responsibility to be available by phone on both the day of the transfer and the preceding day using the contact number provided during booking. If we are unable to reach you via phone or email to verify your reservation, we reserve the right to cancel the booking without further obligation.

We will be happy to buy you tickets for the transport services you use to continue your journey for ferry. Please note that such additional costs are non-refundable. We will document all additional costs and, at your request, provide you with documentation with a list of non-refundable costs and fees.

The Carrier is solely responsible for providing a printed receipt to the Passanger and for complying with all local tax regulations applicable to income generated by the transfer. We accept no responsibility for the tax compliance of either the Carrier or the Passanger with their respective local tax authorities.

If you have questions about your payment options or require special arrangements, please contact our Customer Support before finalizing your booking.

10. CANCELLATION

10.1. Cancellation by the Customer

All cancellations must be submitted through your Confirmation. A cancellation request is only deemed valid and approved once you receive a Transfer Cancellation Confirmation.

There are two applicable cancellation models, depending on whether Cancellation Protection was selected during booking:

A. With Cancellation Protection:

If the cancellation is submitted more than 3 hours before the scheduled transfer:

• 100% of the paid amount is refunded, excluding the non-refundable Cancellation Protection

If the cancellation is submitted within 3 hours before the scheduled transfer:

• It is treated as a no-show and the guest is not entitled to a refund.

B. Without Cancellation Protection (Standard Card Payment):

• If the customer cancels at any time, 100% of the paid amount is retained by Connecto.
• No refunds will be issued, regardless of the timing or reason for cancellation.

10.2. Cancellation by Connecto:

In the event that Connecto cancels the scheduled service, the customer will receive a 100% refund of all paid amounts, including any additional extras.

By confirming your transfer booking, you acknowledge that the service is arranged in accordance with Article 3(3)(k) and Article 16(l) of Directive 2011/83/EU, and you waive and lose any statutory right to withdraw from the contract. Cancellation is therefore possible only under the terms set out in Section 10 (Cancellation Policy).

10.3. Amendments and Changes to Bookings

All requests to amend or cancel a transfer must be submitted exclusively through the Confirmation link provided in your email. After selecting ''Change transfer details'', three options will appear:

• Transfer update – to change transfer details (date, time, pickup/drop-off, etc.);
• Extras update – to add, remove or modify optional extras;
• Transfer cancellation – to cancel the transfer.

Cancellation is valid only once you receive a Transfer Cancellation Confirmation. If you do not receive the relevant confirmation within a reasonable time, you must contact us.

A change is valid only once you receive an updated Confirmation.

Requests submitted by any other means (e-mail, phone, chat, etc.) have no legal effect. If you nevertheless contact us through these channels, our agents will simply direct you to complete the cancellation yourself, as they cannot do it on your behalf.

Please note:

• Approved changes may result in price adjustments. Any increase must be paid by card or cash. If the price is reduced, the difference will be refunded according to the original payment method.
• All requests made within 24 hours are subject to availability and explicit approval by our Customer Support team.
• We are not obliged to approve such changes due to the Carrier’s pre-arranged schedule.
• If a change request within 24 hours is not approved and you then choose to cancel, the cancellation will be treated as a late cancellation, and the refund rules based on your Cancellation Protection status will apply (see Section 10).
• Any change that is not explicitly approved by the Customer Support Department is not considered valid.

10.4. Flight or Travel Delays

In case of flight, train, or ferry delays, please inform our Customer Support as soon as possible using our contact number +44 20 80 89 3008. If your flight is delayed, the free waiting time will begin from the updated arrival time.

If your flight, train, or ship arrives earlier than scheduled, the driver will arrive at the original scheduled pick-up time. Early boarding is not guaranteed, and you may need to wait until the arranged time.

11. OUR CHANGES, AMENDMENTS AND CANCELLATIONS

We reserve the right to propose changes to your reservation details if necessary for operational efficiency or service quality. These may include modifications to pick-up time, payment method, or other relevant booking data. You are not obligated to accept such changes, and if declined, the original booking details remain valid.

If we identify inaccuracies or incomplete information in your booking (e.g., incorrect passenger count, luggage quantity, or miscalculated fare), we reserve the right to contact you to update the booking. If these changes affect pricing, we will provide a corrected price for approval. If you decline the new price, you may cancel the booking.

12. PASSENGER NO SHOW POLICY

A “No-show” occurs when the passenger does not appear at the confirmed pick-up location at the scheduled time and cannot be reached within the included waiting period.

• Your pick-up point is the address stated in your reservation.
• For airport, bus or train station transfers, our driver will monitor the arrival information you provide (e.g., flight number, ferry line, train origin). If pick-up at the stated location is impossible, we will contact you by phone or email and propose an alternative nearby meeting point.
• Accurate arrival details must be supplied during booking.

You must contact our Customer Support at least two times in the immediate time of the transfer. Our digital communication logs serve as proof of any attempts.

You must be available for contact in the immediate time of transfer. In case your assigned driver is unable to find you on location our Agents will attempt to contact you via contact information provided by you during the booking process.

Failing to answer two of these attempts will constitute a Passenger no-show and by not replying you waive any possible refund requests. Please note that Terms and Conditions regarding the waiting time outlined in Section 8 of this document still apply and that a no-show will be concluded only after the waiting time has passed.

If you do not contact us and instead arrange other transport without informing us, the service will be considered delivered. We will be released from all contractual, financial, and legal obligations, including any refund claims.

If your booking is classified as a no-show, for return transfers, and no confirmation is received from you at least 24 hours before the return pick-up time, the return leg will also be declared a no-show, without any right to a refund.

13. DRIVER NO SHOW POLICY

The driver is required to be at the designated pick-up location at the time stated in the Confirmation. If the driver is delayed by up to 15 minutes, and you have selected and paid for the optional SMS notification service, you will be informed via SMS.

Otherwise, the Company will attempt to contact you by email or phone. In case of a longer delay, our Customer Support team will contact you directly using the phone number provided in your reservation.

To avoid any misunderstanding, you must be reachable on the day of the transfer at the contact number provided in your booking.

If it is determined that both you and the driver were at the agreed location at the scheduled time and the transfer did not take place, Connecto will assess the situation by consulting both parties and reviewing all available evidence, including digital records and communication logs. Based on this assessment, Connecto will decide whether a refund is appropriate, taking into account all relevant circumstances.

Company obliges to undertake complete investigation and notify the customer of its decision within 30 business days from the incident report.

14. FORCE MAJEURE

Force majeure refers to extraordinary and unforeseeable events or circumstances beyond our control, which could not have been anticipated or prevented even with the exercise of reasonable care.

If the Company, its representatives, or contractual partners are unable to fulfil their obligations due to a force majeure event occurring after your booking, such obligations shall be considered suspended for the duration of the event. In such cases, Connecto shall not be held liable for non-performance, partial performance, or delays resulting from the event.

Examples of force majeure events include, but are not limited to: natural disasters (earthquakes, floods, fires, storms, or other extreme weather conditions), strikes, road closures or traffic disruptions, state-imposed restrictions, terrorist activities, civil unrest, governmental actions, pandemics, epidemics, military conflicts, or any other event that severely disrupts transport or communication systems and is beyond the control of the Company.

In the event of such circumstances, Connecto will make all reasonable efforts to inform affected customers in a timely manner and, if possible, offer alternative solutions or rescheduling options. However, due to the nature of force majeure, such situations may limit our ability to provide the services as originally agreed.

15. PASSENGER BEHAVIOR

The Company reserves the right to deny, interrupt, or immediately cancel the provision of services to any passenger whose behavior:

• Indicates that they are unfit to travel safely or responsibly;
• Causes or could reasonably be expected to cause discomfort, distress, or danger to other passengers, drivers, staff, third parties, or property;
• Violates local laws, public order, or contractual obligations;
• Demonstrates the influence of alcohol, illegal substances, or the abuse of medication;
• Involves possession or use of weapons or objects that can be interpreted as dangerous;
• Involves threatening, abusive, or violent conduct toward the driver, staff, or fellow passengers.

In such circumstances, the Company may cancel the agreed service without notice. In these cases, the passenger shall have no right to a refund or compensation, and all liability for additional costs falls solely on the passenger.

If the passenger damages property, including but not limited to the vehicle, or causes it to require non-standard cleaning, they are financially responsible for covering the full cost of such damages or cleaning. The amount payable will be determined based on documented assessments, including damage reports and service invoices issued by qualified providers.

Failure to pay such claims within the deadline specified by the Company or the third-party service provider- Carier may result in additional costs, including interest, debt recovery charges, and legal action.

The Company and its partners are not liable for any accident, injury, damage, or loss caused by passenger misconduct. All passengers are expected to behave in accordance with legal, contractual, and socially accepted standards for the duration of the service.

Where appropriate, the Company reserves the right to impose special restrictions or instructions on the passenger for the remainder of the journey. Such measures are final and binding, taken in the interest of operational safety and integrity.

16. ACCEPTANCE OF RISK

By using our services, you acknowledge and accept that all travel carries certain inherent risks, which may include but are not limited to: delays, accidents, unforeseen events, or service limitations due to external circumstances.

Your use of the service implies that you:

• Voluntarily accept such risks;
• Agree to comply with all safety instructions and operational guidelines provided by Company and its partners;
• Acknowledge that you are physically and mentally fit for travel, and if uncertain, will notify our staff immediately.

You are required to send such acceptance within 10 days of our notice. The Company will not be liable for any delay caused by your payment provider or bank. Proof of payment will be provided upon request.

Customer agrees to make reasonable efforts and cooperate with us in obtaining compensation for the refund, which we have granted to Customer, as well as in obtaining compensation from possible third parties. The rights that Customer may have in compensation due to the legal liability of that third party towards Customer arising from the use of our services will be deemed transferred from Customer to us unless otherwise regulated.
