ConnectSure Terms

Dohop ehf. (also referred to as "Dohop", "We", "Us", "Our", "Ourselves") is a company registered in Iceland, at Katrínartún 4, Reykjavík, Iceland, with the company registration number 480904-3030, and the registered VAT number is 85162. 

When booking a self-transfer itinerary, it is essential to understand that it combines multiple one-way/point to point transport tickets, or Trip(s) as we prefer to call it. As the term "self-transfer" may suggest, such itinerary involves multiple separate booking reservation(s). Therefore, in the event of a travel disruption, a transport carrier causing the disruption is solely responsible for their own disrupted booking reservation and has no obligation to cover any other booking reservation that might form a part of the self-transfer itinerary. 

This is why we created ConnectSure, purely for your piece of mind! A service that allows you to access Our customer assistance program, where Our agents will advise and assist you in case your self-transfer itinerary has been adversely affected due to a travel disruption by a carrier, subject to the following terms. 

These terms and conditions ("Service Terms") apply to your ("User", "You", "Your", "Yourself") purchase and use of the services offered and provided by Dohop ("Our Services"). We encourage You to study carefully the following terms, as well as Our Privacy Policy (collectively referred to as "Our Terms") before using or purchasing Our Services. If You do not agree to Our Terms, please do not purchase or use any of Our Services. Please be aware that, where the context admits, the reference to You in Our Terms shall include and also apply to anyone listed in the same booking as the person making the booking, also referred to as "Travellers".

We provide 24/7 access to Our Dohop Service Centre. Please do not hesitate to reach out to Us at any time, in Your preferred language, via service@dohop.com or by telephone at +44 1200 401410. 

1. WHAT IS CONNECTSURE AND WHEN DOES IT APPLY?

   1. ConnectSure is a unique discretionary service which allows You to participate in Our customer assistance programme ("Customer Assistance Programme"). ConnectSure applies if a transport carrier significantly changes, cancels, or delays one of the Trip(s) of the self-transfer itinerary, causing You to miss a later Trip included in the same self-transfer itinerary booking ("Travel Disruption"). 

   2. ConnectSure can be activated by contacting Our agents at the Dohop Service Centre, who will confirm whether ConnectSure applies to Your situation. If so, You will be granted access to Our Customer Assistance Program under which You may seek assistance and advice from Our agents regarding possible provision of services provided by Us at Our absolute discretion. Thus, under the Customer Assistance Program, We will suggest an alternative transport option compatible with the missed Trip of the booking, or as we call it "Alternative Transport". Upon Your request, We also reserve the right to offer You other assistance at Our own discretion under which We will reimburse related extra expenses that have been pre-approved by Our agents ("Approved Expenses"). The Alternative Transport and additionally covered expenses, We offer You will depend on how the disruption affects Your itinerary, Your ability to board the next Trip in Your self-transfer itinerary and the cost, duration, flight class and ancillaries of the adversely affected latter Trip of the self-transfer itinerary. Please get in touch with our agents who will confirm what We consider moderate related Approved Expenses. For Your information, this may include, but is not limited to: Accommodation cost for up to 100 EUR per person due to a necessary overnight stay; public ground transportation costs that We, in Our sole discretion, deem reasonable in case the Alternative Transport departs from a different airport or station or in relation to transport to/from an accommodation due to a necessary overnight stay; and expenses for food and beverages up to 15 EUR per person if a wait at the airport/station exceeds 4 hours. 

   3. If You and Our agents come to the mutual conclusion that finding Alternative Transport doesn't work for You, We may at our own discretion, be able to assist You in getting a reimbursement for the unused adversely affected part of Your self-transfer itinerary according to the original booking, even if the carriers don´t provide it. 

   4. We reserve the right to provide You, under Our sole and exclusive discretion, with more favourable terms and conditions of the ConnectSure services or any other services provided under the contract concluded between Us and You, than those We stated under Our Terms. We may do so on an individual basis or within any time- and/or territory-limited campaign, but always without any prejudice to the future treatment of You or any other of Our customers, or without establishing the binding practice prevailing the rules set forth herein. At any time, We may cease to provide or modify such beneficial treatment under Our sole and exclusive discretion, nevertheless, without affecting the benefits already provided. 

2. ACTIVATION

   1. Always contact Dohop Service Centre before making any amendments to Your self-transfer itinerary booking, regardless of whether You are experiencing a Travel Disruption or simply wish to change or update Your self-transfer itinerary or contact details. We need to be aware of any and all changes and updates to be able to assist You. 

   2. In case of a Travel Disruption, please follow these steps:

      1. Contact Dohop Service Centre as soon as possible after finding out about the Travel Disruption to get Our agent’s assistance and advice in relation to Alternative Transports and, when applicable, Acceptable Expenses;

      2. Upon confirmation of Your choice, Our agents will either advise You to contact the transport carrier causing the Travel Disruption, or offer to contact the carrier Ourselves, to claim the rights You might have. This may include rebooking or reimbursement for the disrupted Trip of the self-transfer itinerary as per the carrier´s policies and applicable law;

      3. To arrange the Alternative Transport Our agents will either:

         1. guide You through phone, text, email or chat on how, what and where to book and purchase the Alternative Transport option and ask You to initially cover the resulting additional cost. We reserve the right to offer You a fulfilment of the additional cost initially covered by You, at Our sole discretion, which Our agents will guide and assist You on how to pursue and receive. Please be aware that You may be asked to provide related receipts and support document in order to verify Your request; or 

         2. send Our suggested option to You through email or text message via plan3, Our third-party service provider. By responding to the email/text and choosing the relevant link of the suggested option You wish to book, You confirm and complete a Booking of the Alternative Transport without further action needed;

      4. If You and Our agents come to the mutual conclusion that no Alternative Transport option works for You, We may at Our own discretion, be able to assist You in getting reimbursement for the unused adversely affected part of your self-transfer itinerary, even if the carriers do not provide it. 

   3. Please use the confirmation number provided in Our email sent to You at all times when contacting the Dohop Service Centre. It is Your responsibility to maintain contact with Dohop Service Centre and to respond to all communications either by email or phone when making use of the Customer Assistance Programme. We make at least two (2) attempts by telephone and/or email to reach You. If We are not able to reach You on the contact details provided to Us by You then We assume You have rejected Our suggested Alternative Transfer and decided to make Your own unapproved arrangements at Your own cost. We will not be liable for any cost resulting from the aforementioned. If You are unable to contact us, after making reasonable and evidenced attempts to do so, We will reimburse You in respect of the full amount of the unused portion (i.e. the later Trip missed due to the Travel Disruption) of Your self-transfer itinerary as stated in the booking. 

   4. All reimbursements provided as part of the services will be based on receipts and You undertake to make every effort to keep the claim as low as possible, avoiding any expenses of any non-essential or additional services or upgrades. We will use the payment method provided by You to issue the reimbursement. You represent and warrant that the payment information provided is accurate and You are authorised to use the payment instrument. We convert reimbursement amounts in foreign currency using the exchange rates on the day the correct records and payment information are received. The exchange rate applicable is the official exchange rate (mid-rate) recognised by the Icelandic Central Bank for the conversion of such foreign currency (rounded up or down by Us), as applicable on the date when We convert the currency, unless Your acquired the currency to pay the costs at a less favourable rate. We may deduct the following cost for Your reimbursement amount: i) the cost for the cross-border transfer of benefits; and ii) for particular transfer forms that the Customer requested. Incorrect payment information may result in Us being unable to issue the refund and/or affect the amount You receive, as the exchange currency rate on the day We receive the correct information will be used, not the currency rate on the day the incorrect information was received. Any and all additional cost in relation to the provision of incorrect payment information must be borne by You. 

3. SPECIFIC LIMITATION

   1. The provision of ConnectSure is at Our absolute discretion and We will only provide You with any of the ConnectSure fulfilments in circumstances where a Travel Disruption of the first Trip of the self-transfer itinerary, caused by the relevant transport carrier, adversely affects the rest of the itinerary.

      5. If You purchase and add ConnectSure to Your self-transfer itinerary booking post Travel Disruption.

You further represent that You have obtained all the necessary legal authorisation and consent from the other Travellers listed in the booking and/or a purchase has been made on behalf of, to act on their behalf, including but not limited to, accepting these Terms, and providing their personal data. As the person making the purchase, You are responsible for the actions and behaviour of the Travellers listed in the same booking as You and/or who you are making the purchase of Our Services on behalf of.

   3. THE 14-DAY WITHDRAWAL PERIOD. If You are a consumer i.e., any natural person acting for purposes outside its trade, business, craft or profession, You have the right to withdraw from a contract within the period of 14 days of the conclusion of the contract without giving any reason according to directive 2011/83/EU. The right of withdrawal lapses after the service has been entirely performed, if the performance has begun with Your prior express consent, and with the acknowledgement that You will lose Your right of withdrawal once the contract has been entirely performed by Us. Therefore, You have the right to withdraw from the contract formed between You and Us for the ConnectSure services within the period of 14 calendar days (including bank holidays, weekends etc.) without giving any reason. The period will expire after 14 calendar days  from the day of the conclusion of the ConnectSure contract or when the ConnectSure service has been entirely performed by Us, whichever happens first. LAPSE OF RIGHT: PLEASE BE AWARE THAT GIVEN THE CHARACTER AND NATURE OF THE CONNECTSURE SERVICES, THAT BEGINS WITH YOUR EXPRESS CONSENT IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOU HIT THE “BOOK & PAY” BUTTON, NO RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL SHALL APPLY WITHIN 48 HOURS PRIOR TO THE SCHEDULED DEPARTURE OF THE FIRST SEGMENT/TRIP OF THE CUSTOMER´S SELF-TRANSFER ITINERARY, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE 14-DAY WITHDRAWAL PERIOD IS STILL ACTIVE.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for You to send Your communication concerning the exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired. To exercise the right of withdrawal, You must inform the Dohop Service Centre of Your decision to withdraw from the ConnectSure contract by an unequivocal written statement, e.g., by a letter sent by post, fax or email. A model withdrawal form can be found in Annex I to these Terms.  If You withdraw from the ConnectSure contract, We will refund You the amount of the ConnectSure Fee, without  undue delay and, in any event, no later than 14 days from the day of receiving the notification from You. We will use the same means of payment as used for the initial transaction for the payment of the ConnectSure Fee. You will not incur any fees for the issue of a refund of the ConnectSure Fee.

5. PAYMENT

   1. It is Your responsibility to make sure the payment goes ahead on time i.e., that Your bank, debit card or credit card details provided are correct, and that sufficient funds are available on Your account. If Your payment fails, for a reason attributable to an action or omission on Your part (e.g., due to insufficient funds; Your payment was deemed fraudulent by a fraud detection service; finalising a booking reservation was not possible since some of the information You provided was invalid or missing) You will be in default and We will not be liable in any way. In case of a partially booked itinerary due to aforementioned, You have to contact the relevant transport carrier to try to cancel the partial booking. If You cannot cancel and receive a refund, We will not be liable, and ConnectSure is void. 

   2. We will either act as Merchant of Record ("MoR") for Our Services, or a Seller of Record ( "SoR"). When acting as a MoR, We organise the payment process part for Our Services and bear responsibility for managing Your payment and transaction for Our Services. In scenarios where We have outsourced the aforementioned responsibility of electronic payment acceptance to other service providers, We act as SoR for Our Services, and are therefore solely responsible for the delivery, fulfilment, and related liabilities of Our  Services.  

6. DATA PROTECTION

   1. If You purchase Our Services, We will collect Your personal data (and as may apply, personal data of other Travellers listed in Your booking) as Data Controllers for the purpose of processing payment for and providing Our Services.
