We will regularly update these Terms of Service (once or twice a year).
Our Good Practice Principles
Our mission is to help people live healthier lives. For this reason, we aim to offer the best healthcare centers in our country under the most suitable conditions to help you stay healthy or receive treatment. To achieve this goal, we work according to the following core values:
Introduction to Terms and Conditions
These terms and conditions, which may be updated from time to time, apply to all our services offered directly or indirectly (via distributors), online, through any mobile device, by email, or over the phone. By accessing, browsing, using our (mobile) website or any of our apps (hereinafter referred to as the "Platform") and/or by making a reservation, you acknowledge, understand, and agree to be legally bound by the terms and conditions set out below (including the Privacy Policy).
These pages, the content and infrastructure of these pages, and the online appointment services (including payment facilitation) provided through this website are owned, operated, and provided by Pariwa.com and are made available for your personal, non-commercial (B2C) use only, under the terms and conditions specified below. Our relationship with Healthcare Providers is governed by separate business-to-business (B2B) terms and conditions. Each Healthcare Provider acts professionally in its relationship with Pariwa.com when making its products and/or services available (both in B2B and B2C contexts). In addition to the terms and important information displayed on the Healthcare Provider’s own website, please be aware that the use or consumption of the healthcare services may be subject to the Provider’s own terms and conditions (including warnings and limitations of liability), which may apply or require your acceptance.
Definitions
Here is the English translation of your text in a clear and professional format:
1. Scope and Nature of Our Service
Through our Platform, we (Pariwa.com and its affiliated (distribution) partners) provide an online environment where Healthcare and Treatment Providers can advertise, market, sell, promote, and/or offer their products and services for order, purchase, reservation, or rental. Visitors to the Platform can discover, search, compare, order, and make reservations and payments for such healthcare and treatment services.
By using or benefiting from the Healthcare and Treatment Service (e.g., making an appointment or reservation via the Platform), you enter into a direct (legally binding) contractual relationship with the Healthcare or Treatment Provider from whom you have made the reservation or purchase. From the moment you make your reservation, we act solely as an intermediary between you and the Healthcare or Treatment Provider. We transmit your appointment details to the relevant Provider(s) and send you a confirmation email on their behalf. Pariwa.com does not (re)sell, rent, or offer any treatment-related product or service.
The information we provide through the Healthcare and Treatment Service is based on data supplied by the Providers. Although we exercise reasonable care in providing our services, we cannot guarantee that all information is accurate, complete, or correct, nor can we be held responsible for any errors (including obvious typographical errors), service interruptions (due to temporary and/or partial system outages, repairs, updates, or maintenance), inaccurate, misleading or untrue information, or any lack of communication. Each Provider remains responsible at all times for the accuracy, completeness, and correctness of the (descriptive) information (including prices, availability, and terms) displayed on our Platform. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, we do not recommend, endorse, or warrant the quality, level of service, ratings, or type of any Provider (or its facilities, premises, services, or products) displayed on our Platform.
Our services are provided for personal and non-commercial use only. Therefore, the content and information on our Platform (including, but not limited to, prices, availability, and descriptions), as well as the software, reservations, and services offered, may not be used, copied, displayed, downloaded, or reproduced for any commercial or competitive activity or purpose.
Partner Offers
Pariwa.com may also display offers (Partner Offers) that are facilitated through another platform operated by a Pariwa.com partner company and not directly by a Healthcare or Treatment Provider. Such Partner Offers will be clearly marked and can be distinguished from standard offers. Unless stated otherwise, Partner Offers are subject to the following conditions:
3. Privacy
Pariwa.com respects your privacy. Please review our privacy policy for more information.
4. Free for Consumers – Only Providers Pay!
Unless stated otherwise, our service is free for consumers. Unlike many other intermediaries, we do not charge you for our Healthcare and Treatment Services and do not add any additional fees to the price (for appointments).
Healthcare and Treatment Providers pay Pariwa.com a commission (a small percentage of the treatment or service price) after the consumer has used the service (e.g., received treatment at a facility and made payment). Providers may increase their commission rate to improve their visibility ranking (Visibility Boost). The use of Visibility Boost is at the discretion of each Provider and may vary by time or product offered. Our ranking algorithm may consider this commission increase when determining Default Rankings. Preferred partners pay a higher commission for better placement.
Only Providers with a stronger commercial partnership (contractually) with Pariwa.com are listed on our Platform for B2B and/or B2C promotions. Unlike platforms like Amazon or eBay, Pariwa.com is not a consumer-to-consumer (C2C) marketplace and does not allow unverified or non-professional parties to list or sell products or services via the Platform.
5. Credit Card or Bank Transfer
Where applicable, certain Health or Treatment Providers offer the option to pay for Health or Treatment appointments via secure online payment (either in full or partially, as required by the Provider's payment terms) during the appointment process, subject to the capabilities and support of your bank. Pariwa.com facilitates payment for certain products and services (i.e., payment mediation services) through third-party payment processors, depending on the Provider's choice. Pariwa.com does not act or operate as an official seller. Payments are securely processed from your credit/debit card or bank account to the Provider's bank account via a third-party payment processor. All payments made to the Health or Treatment Provider in this manner constitute full or partial settlement of the applicable price for the product or service. You may not claim a refund for the amount paid.
In cases of specific (non-refundable) prices and special offers, Health or Treatment Providers may require payment (if possible) via bank transfer or credit card after the appointment is booked and confirmed. This may involve pre-authorization or (sometimes non-refundable) charges to your credit card. Please thoroughly review the details of your selected product or service before booking to identify any such conditions. Pariwa.com is not liable for any (authorized, unauthorized (alleged), or erroneous) payment collection actions taken by the Health or Treatment Provider, and you will not claim or demand a refund for any valid and authorized payment collected by the Provider from your credit card.
In cases of credit card fraud or unauthorized use of your credit card by third parties, most banks and credit card companies assume the risk and cover damages resulting from fraud or misuse. However, this commitment may be subject to a deductible (usually around 1,500 TRY or the equivalent in your local currency). If your credit card company or bank charges you this amount due to unauthorized transactions resulting from a booking made on our platform, we will reimburse you up to 1,500 TRY (or the equivalent in your local currency). To be eligible for compensation, ensure you report the fraud to your credit card provider (in accordance with their reporting rules and procedures) and contact us immediately. Please provide us with evidence of the charged deductible amount (e.g., terms from your credit card company). This compensation applies to bookings made with a credit card through Pariwa.com's secure server and in cases where your credit card is used without your authorization due to no fault of your own while using our secure server.
6. Prepayment, Cancellation, No-Show, and Additional Information
By booking a Health or Treatment appointment from a Provider, you acknowledge and agree to the applicable cancellation and no-show policies of the respective Provider, as well as any additional terms and conditions that may apply to your treatment (including facility rules provided on our Platform and by the Provider). These terms can be obtained from the relevant Health or Treatment Provider. General cancellation and no-show policies of Providers are available on our Platform's Provider information pages and are reiterated in the confirmation email sent to you (and, if applicable, during the booking process). Please note that certain prices, fees, and special offers may not be eligible for cancellation, refund, or changes. Before making a booking, carefully review the details of your selected product or service to identify any such conditions. Failure to pay the remaining amount(s) for a Health or Treatment appointment that requires prepayment (in full or partially) by the specified due date may result in cancellation of the appointment, subject to the Provider's payment terms. Cancellation and prepayment policies may vary depending on the segment, product, or service of the treatment. Please carefully read the additional information (under each Health or Treatment type on our Platform or at the bottom of each Provider's page) and the important information in your booking confirmation regarding any additional terms that may apply (e.g., age requirements, security deposits, accepted cards). Late payment, incorrect bank, credit card, or debit card information, invalid credit/debit cards, or insufficient funds are your responsibility, and unless the Provider agrees otherwise or accepts different terms, you will not be entitled to any refund for any (non-refundable) prepaid amount.
If you anticipate arriving late at the facility on your appointment or reservation date or cannot make it to your examination or appointment time, ensure you inform the Health or Treatment Provider in a timely and appropriate manner to avoid cancellation or no-show charges. If you need assistance contacting the Provider, our customer service department is available to help. Pariwa.com accepts no responsibility for any issues arising from late arrivals, cancellations, or no-show charges imposed by the Health or Treatment Provider.
To review, modify, or cancel your Health or Treatment appointment, follow the instructions provided in the confirmation email. Please note that cancellation and no-show policies of the Provider, as well as any prepayment terms, may result in cancellation fees or forfeiture of prepaid amounts. We recommend carefully reading the Provider's cancellation, prepayment, and no-show policies before making your booking and ensuring timely payment of any remaining amounts due under your appointment.
7. (Other) Correspondence and Communication Methods
By completing a Health or Treatment appointment, you agree to receive (i) an email shortly before your appointment date providing information about your treatment and specific details and offers related to your Health or Treatment appointment (including third-party offers to the extent you have actively opted in), (ii) an email after your arrival requesting a review of your Health or Treatment Provider and your experience with the Health or Treatment Service, and (iii) an email shortly after your treatment inviting you to complete our patient/client review form. For more information on how we may contact you, please refer to our privacy policy.
Pariwa.com assumes no responsibility or liability for any communications made through or facilitated by its platform between you and the Health or Treatment Provider. You cannot derive any rights from any request or communication sent to the Health or Treatment Provider or from any acknowledgment of receipt of any communication or request. Pariwa.com cannot guarantee that any request or communication will be received, read, complied with, or executed by the Health or Treatment Provider in a timely manner.
To ensure the proper completion of your Health or Treatment appointment and request processes, you must use a valid email address. We are not responsible or liable for any incorrect or misspelled email addresses, inaccurate or erroneous (mobile) phone numbers, or credit card numbers provided by you (and we are not obligated to verify these details).
All claims and complaints against Pariwa.com or regarding the Health or Treatment Service must be submitted promptly, and in any event, within 30 days after the scheduled date of completion of the product or service. Claims and complaints submitted after the 30-day period may be rejected, and the claimant may forfeit all rights to any compensation (for damages or costs).
The translation of the section you provided is quite extensive. To ensure quality and maintain structure, I’ll begin by translating the first part. Here's the English version of the Section 8 and 9, and Intellectual Property Rights section from your text:
8. Rankings, Preferred Programs, Star Ratings, and Reviews
Our Platform aims to present you with relevant search results by providing a personalized default ranking of Health or Treatment Providers. You can apply filters and sort by alternative criteria, thereby influencing how search results are presented and obtaining rankings based on other preferences. We use multiple algorithms to generate default rankings, and this process is continuously evolving.
Pariwa.com has determined that the following parameters are most closely related to finding a suitable Health or Treatment Provider and prioritizes them accordingly in its algorithms (main parameters): your personal search history, click-through rate (CTR) from the search page to the provider’s page, the conversion rate based on visits to the provider’s page, and the gross (including cancellations) and net (excluding cancellations) number of bookings made with a provider. Independent elements such as review scores (aggregate and component), availability, terms, competitive pricing, content quality, and specific provider features can also influence conversion and CTR.
The provider’s history of timely payments and the percentage of commission paid to us, or other benefits offered (e.g., through commercial agreements with partners), may influence the default ranking. Providers may also influence their ranking by participating in various programs or visibility boosters, including the Preferred Partner Program, which involves paying a higher commission.
Certificates and licenses displayed on Pariwa.com are not determined or verified by us. These typically come from official authorities under legal requirements. The accuracy and validity of these documents are subject to the oversight of relevant authorities.
To facilitate better matching, Pariwa.com may assign a quality score (displayed as yellow squares) to some health facilities. This score is based on over 400 attributes across five categories: (i) services/amenities listed on Pariwa.com; (ii) facility size and capacities; (iii) number and quality of uploaded photos; (iv) average patient reviews including cleanliness ratings; and (v) anonymized past booking data. Machine learning analysis is used to assign a score between 1 and 5.
Only patients who have received treatment may submit reviews. These reviews (including in-treatment feedback) are uploaded (a) to inform future users on the provider’s quality, and (b) may be used at Pariwa.com’s discretion across promotional or partner platforms. Reviews may only be submitted within 3 months of treatment and will remain visible for up to 36 months. Reviews are ranked by submission date but detailed reviews from “Facility Inspectors” may be prioritized. Reviews may be filtered by language, date, and score. Providers may respond to reviews. We reserve the right to edit or remove reviews that violate our policies. Reviews should not include commercial promotions, explicit language, private names, or references to stolen items.
Pariwa.com does not accept reviews containing:
Pariwa.com and any Health or Treatment Provider may terminate their partnership with due notice, including in cases of breach or insolvency.
