3.1 The Provider offers a Comparison Shopping Service (CSS) that enables online retailers to run Google Shopping campaigns without Google’s 20% CSS fee, thereby bidding at full value. This aims to increase the Customer's effective bidding power by 20% compared to direct Google Shopping campaigns.
3.2 The Provider implements the Service by integrating the Customer’s Google Merchant Center via the Channable platform, which is used as a technical sub-processor.
3.3 The Customer retains full control and funding of its Google Ads account. All advertising costs (clicks, budget) are borne solely by the Customer.
3.4 The Service does not include campaign management, bid strategy, marketing consultancy, or design services. The Customer (or its designated agency) remains solely responsible for campaign settings, bids, budgets, and ad creatives.
3.5 The Provider does not guarantee any specific performance metrics (e.g., click-through rate, conversions, ROI). All references to potential savings are based on Google's current auction model and do not constitute a warranty.
4.1 The Provider uses the Channable B.V. platform to manage and forward the Customer's product data feed to Google Merchant Center. The Customer authorizes the Provider to transfer the necessary data to Channable for this purpose.
4.2 The Provider holds all necessary rights to use Channable for the Service. Channable’s availability, maintenance, or downtime lies outside the Provider’s control; the Provider is only liable for intentional misconduct or gross negligence.
5.1 The Customer places an order by selecting a subscription plan (monthly or annual) on the website and completing payment via Stripe. This constitutes a binding offer, which the Provider accepts by confirming the order or by commencing Service delivery.

7.1 Subscription fees are as displayed on the website and exclusive of applicable VAT. Example fees: €49/month or €468/year (equivalent to €39/month).
7.2 Payments are processed by Stripe in advance. The Customer authorizes Stripe to charge the designated payment method at each renewal date.
7.3 In case of payment failure, the Customer enters default and the Provider may suspend Service access or terminate the contract for cause.
7.4 The Provider may adjust fees or Service features for future periods, notifying the Customer before the next renewal. The Customer may terminate if the new terms are not acceptable.
