[REDACTED], tax ID [REDACTED], email: contact@sezlong.online, phone: +40750443490 (the "Platform Operator").

3. Nature of Service — Electronic Intermediary
The Platform Operator provides exclusively an electronic intermediation service between Users and Beach Operators, as an information society service provider under Law 365/2002 on e-commerce. The rental contract is concluded directly between the User and the Beach Operator. The Platform Operator is not a party to the rental contract, does not own the equipment, and is not liable for the quality of services provided by the Beach Operator.

By creating an account, the User declares that: they are at least 18 years old or have legal guardian consent; the data provided is accurate and complete; they are authorised to use the service.
The Platform Operator reserves the right to suspend or delete accounts that violate these Terms, with prior notice to the User where possible.

The booking process includes: selecting the date, equipment type, and location; real-time availability check; order confirmation; receiving email confirmation with Booking Code and unique QR code. The rental contract is deemed concluded at the moment the email confirmation is sent to the User.

The cancellation policy is displayed on each beach's page at the time of booking.

To the extent permitted by law, the Platform Operator's total maximum liability to the User for any claim related to Platform use is limited to the value of the booking in question.
These limitations do not apply to damages caused by intent or gross negligence, personal injury, or any other cases where law prohibits exclusion or limitation of liability.
