The contract

Acceptance

Any subscription to the Viidou Partner Program or paying options by an Advertiser implies full and complete acceptance of the current terms of sales.

Terms of subscription to the Viidou Partner Program

General rules

The aim of the Viidou Partner Program is to allow the publication and dissemination of Unlimited Monthly Advertisements to any Advertiser wishing to benefit from more than one Active Ad on the Website.

The Viidou Partner Program takes the form of a monthly subscription for an indefinite duration, with automatic renewal. Consequently, the registration of a payment method on the Website is mandatory in order to subscribe to the Viidou Partner Program.

Subscription to the Viidou Partner Program is exclusively accessible to Advertisers connected to their Personal Account from the Website.

Where and when to subscribe

The Viidou Partner Program can be subscribed, by any Advertiser connected to his Personal Account, from the Website:

  • from the subscription form accessible via the "Features" page,
  • from the "My Subscriptions" page in the Advertiser's Personal Account,
  • at the time of publication of an Ad, if the Advertiser already has an Active Ad at the time of publication.

Duration and effect of the Viidou Partner Program

Viidou Ltd will automatically renew the Advertiser's membership and bill the service via its primary payment method on each monthly anniversary date of the subscription, as long as the Advertiser has accepted it during the subscription process.

The Advertiser may cancel his subscription to the Viidou Partner Program at any time, in the manner described in the section "Termination of the Viidou Partner Program Subscription" of these Terms.

Subscription mode to the paying options

General rules

The subscription of one or several paying options is exclusively accessible to the Advertisers connected to their Personal Account from the Website.

A paying option is only subscribed for one Ad. As a result, it is not possible to transfer the benefit of a paying option from one Ad to another.

It is possible to subscribe several paying options for the same Ad and this simultaneously or not.

Ads are classified on the Viidou Service in chronological order upon arrival on the search page, depending on the date and time of their posting. The User can then change the sort order of the ads as he wishes. Accordingly, any Advertiser acknowledges and agrees that the presence at the top of the list of his Ad is only provisional.

Where and when to subscribe

The paying options may be subscribed, by any Advertiser connected to his Personal Account, from the Website:

  • from the deposit form when depositing or modifying the Ad,
  • at any time during the broadcast of an Ad, either from the "My Ads" tab of the Advertiser's Personal Account.

Duration and effect of the paying options

The duration of the paying options depends on the nature of the option:

  • Top of the list for 30 days: this option is valid for 30 calendar days from the validation of the Ad by Viidou Ltd.
  • Top of the list for 7 days: this option is valid for 7 calendar days from the validation of the Ad by Viidou Ltd.
  • Top of the list for 1 day: this option is valid for 1 calendar day from the validation of the Ad by Viidou Ltd.
  • Homepage for 30 days: this option is valid for 30 calendar days from the validation of the Ad by Viidou Ltd.
  • Homepage for 7 days: this option is valid for 7 calendar days from the validation of the Ad by Viidou Ltd.
  • Add an urgent logo on the ad: this option is valid for the duration of the broadcast of the Ad excluding the extension.
  • Additional photos pack: this option is valid for the duration of the Ad.
  • Broadcast the Ad on social networks: Unless explicitly requested by the Advertiser, Viidou Ltd does not delete posts from its social networks once the Ad has been published. The actual life of the content on social networks depends entirely on the media. We estimate that an Ad posted on Twitter will have a maximum of visibility for about eighteen (18) minutes, before being drowned in the publication stream, as opposed to five (5) hours for Facebook, and twenty-one (21) hours on Instagram.

Upon the early withdrawal of the Ad (either because of the Advertiser, or because of Viidou Ltd, particularly in the case of abusive content) or at the end of its broadcasting period, the paying option ceases to produce its effects. The extension of an Ad does not extend the term of the paying option.

The modification of a Personal Account does not extend the duration of the paying options subscribed.
The deletion of a Personal Account leads to the deletion of any Ad attached to this account (same email address) and, consequently, any paying option subscribed for these Ad and gives no right to refund or compensation, which the Advertiser acknowledges and accepts.

Description of the advantages of the Viidou Partner Program

The Viidou Partner Program allows Advertisers to publish Ads in an unlimited way on the Website without the limitation of one Active Ad at a time.

The Viidou Partner Program also offers free access to the following paying options:

  • Urgent Logo
  • Additional photos pack

By subscribing to the Viidou Partner Program, the Advertiser benefits from these two options free of charge for any Ad published on the Website during the subscription period.

Any Ad published during the duration of the subscription to the Viidou Partner Program is automatically granted free option "Homepage" for one day, on the first calendar day of its publication.

  • 7 days: The Ad is returned to the top of the search results list for seven (7) days immediately upon verification on the Website. This option therefore ends seven (7) calendar days after validation, at the exact time of its validation.

Homepage

A representation of the Ad will appear on the homepage (https://www.viidou.co.uk or https://www.viidou.co.uk/index) from the Website, below the search options, at the top of the page.

The main picture of the Ad will be displayed in addition to the price and location.

Ads of property for sale are displayed by default on the homepage. Rental property ads are displayed when the user changes the search type by choosing location. They then replace the ads for sale.

By default, four (4) Ads appear in this area of ​​the homepage, taken randomly from the current eligible ads inventory for which this option was selected. Ads change every five (5) seconds randomly so that the Ad has the best chance of capturing the attention of Users.

Ads with the "Homepage" option appearing randomly, an Ad will not be visible permanently on the homepage of the Website.

  • 7 days : The Ad will be on the home page of the Website for one (1) week from the date of validation. This option therefore ends 7 calendar days after validation, at the exact time of its validation.

Once the time has elapsed, the Ad can be changed to order an additional duration.

Urgent logo

This option makes it possible to display an urgent logo on an Ad for the duration of its publication on the Website.

Additional photos pack

This option allows you to add fifteen (15) additional photos in an Ad, up to a maximum of twenty (20) photos on the Ad.

Additional photos will be present throughout the duration of the Ad, unless the Advertiser decides to remove them by itself during a modification.

Broadcast the Ad on social networks

This option allows you to promote the Ad through the accounts of Viidou Ltd on social networks:

The publication is made in the form of a video that includes the main features of the Ad: photos, prices, location, description, features.

If the option is ordered while the Ad does not contain any photos, generic visuals will be used to promote the Ad.

In case of modification of the Ad by the Advertiser after the publications on social networks, it will not be possible to change the publications on social networks. The Advertiser may however ask the Customer Service to delete the publication on social networks, if the deletion is allowed by the social network. A new command of the option can then be made from the Advertiser's Personal Account.

Viidou Ltd or its partners make the videos without it being possible for the Advertiser to make any changes. No validation will be requested from the Advertiser before it is broadcast. Visuals and texts are taken from the Ad, the validation will be tacit after ordering the option.

The Viidou Partner Program subscription can be terminated at any time via the "My subscriptions" section of the Advertiser's Personal Account. This is a subscription without commitment of duration. The cancellation can take place from the first day of subscription. In case of malfunction or inaccessibility of the said link, the Advertiser may terminate the Subscription by sending an email to support@viidou.co.uk. Termination requests received at this address may take up to five (5) days to be processed by Customer Service.

Subscription will end on the anniversary date of the subscription. For example, if the subscription to the Viidou Partner Program is made on the 5th of the current month, and the Advertiser cancels his subscription on the 20th, the end date of access to the Service will be fixed on the 5th of the following month.

The cancellation of the subscription to the Viidou Partner Program does not give rise to the reimbursement of the current month already billed by Viidou Ltd to the Advertiser.

The Advertiser retains the enjoyment of the Service between the date of termination and the anniversary date of subscription.

Once the anniversary date expires and the subscription terminated, the Advertiser immediately loses the benefits of the Viidou Partner Program Service. If the Advertiser has published and is still showing more Active Ads on the Website on the Subscription Anniversary Date following the termination, only the last Published Ad will remain Active and posted on the Website. All other Ads, even those that have been the subject of a paid option order, will be canceled.

In case of payment incident

In case of payment incident when automatically renewing the subscription (expiration date of the credit card expired, or refusal of authorization from the bank of the Advertiser), an email will be sent to the Advertiser to invite him to remedy the situation. Viidou Ltd will retry the payment:

  • For the first time five (5) calendar days following the payment incident,
  • A second time, five (5) calendar days following the last attempt, if it has also failed.

Each attempt gives rise to the sending of a new email to the Advertiser.

After two failures, the subscription to the Viidou Partner Program is automatically terminated by Viidou Ltd, as described in the previous section of these Terms.

Refund Policy and Retraction

If you are dissatisfied with one of our Services for any reason, we will refund the amount paid for your most recent month of service for Viidou Partner Program, or your last order.

Refund requests must be made directly to us at support@viidou.co.uk within thirty (30) days of the last order date.

We will not provide a refund for a request that is received by Viidou Ltd more than thirty (30) days after the date of last order.

The refund can be granted only if the means of payment used for the original order that is the subject of the refund request is still valid at the time of the refund.

Any refund will result in the removal from the Website of the benefits related to the Paid Options for the Ad(s) subject of the order or subscription refunded. If the refund request concerns the subscription to the Viidou Partner Program, the refund will result in the immediate cancellation of the subscription and all the benefits it provides. Thus, if the Advertiser has published and still diffuse several Active Announcements on the Website at the time of the refund, only the last published Announcement will remain Active and posted on the Website. All other Ads, even those that have been the subject of paid options order, will be canceled.

In case of deletion of Ad

If the diffusion of an Ad is refused by Viidou Ltd due to its non-compliance with the Service's broadcasting rules, the amount of the paid options subscribed when depositing or modification of the Ad will not be taken. An email will be sent to the Advertiser informing him that his Ad has been rejected by Viidou Ltd and will not be broadcast.

On the other hand, if Viidou Ltd is forced to cancel the Ad after validation due to its non-compliance with the Service's broadcasting rules and in particular because its content has been legitimately reported as abusive, Viidou Ltd will not reimburse the Advertiser the amount of the paid options subscribed when depositing or modifying the ad thus deleted in the course of broadcast.

Viidou Ltd's refusal to publish an Ad because of its non-compliance with the Service's distribution rules does not result in the reimbursement of the subscription fee to the Viidou Partner Program.

In case of deletion of a Personal Account

The deletion of a Personal Account by the Advertiser results in the deletion of any Linked ads, and consequently the cancellation of any paid options subscribed for these Ads and does not give right to any right to refund or compensation, which the Advertiser acknowledges and accepts.

Retractation

Pursuant to Directive 2011/83 / EU of the European Parliament and following the Consumer Code, the Advertiser has a period of fourteen (14) days to retract. However, by validating the order, the Advertiser agrees that Viidou Ltd begins to perform the service and expressly waives its right of withdrawal.

Responsibility and Force Majeure

The responsibility of Viidou Ltd can not be engaged in case of non-performance or poor execution of the order due, either because of the Advertiser, or a case of force majeure.

Modification of these terms

Viidou Ltd reserves the right to modify at any time, and in whole or in part, these terms of sales. Advertisers are invited to regularly consult these terms of sales to see the changes.

Miscellaneous

Any processing of personal data in the context of the present is subject to the provisions of our privacy policy, which is an integral part of these Terms.

Should any part of these terms prove to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, for any reason whatsoever, the provisions in question would be deemed unwritten, without calling into question the validity of the other provisions that will continue to apply between the Advertisers and Viidou Ltd, unless it was an impulsive and decisive clause that caused one of the Parties to subscribe to the Paid Option.

Any complaint must be addressed to the Customer Service of Viidou Ltd.

These Terms are governed by the law of England and Wales and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the English courts.
