02 Taksi Terms of Use

These Terms of Use (”Terms”) apply to services related to ordering a taxi and relaying of the said order (”Service” or ”Services”), provided by 02 Taksi Oy (Joukahaisenkatu 1, 20520 Turku, later ”02 Taksi”), offered in the territory of Finland. By using the Services the user (”User”) accepts these Terms and agrees to be bound by them. User may use the Services via telephone and via the internet- and mobile applications (”02 Online Channel”) offered by 02 Taksi.

.

02 Taksi acts as the relaying party for taxi orders between User and partners providing taxi services (”Partner”) . Partners are taxi service providers, independent from 02 Taksi.

By ordering a taxi via the Services the User makes a binding order on a taxi service. Consumer customer does not have the right to cancel the Service according to the consumer protection legislation. Due to the Services having been completed or started with User’s acceptance before the end of the cancellation period, the User does not have the right to cancel the order.

After receiving an order from User, 02 Taksi shall relay the order to the selected Partner. Upon the Partner accepting the order by a text message or other notification, a binding agreement on the purchase of the Partner’s taxi service is formed between the User and the Partner (”Agreement”). 02 Taksi is not a party to this Agreement. Cancellation of the Agreement before the fulfilment of the taxi service must be agreed upon between the User and the Partner. 02 Taksi shall use its best efforts to connect Users to Partners but can not guarantee the availability of taxi services. Especially during peak hours (public holidays and their eves, other special seasons) taxi services may be congested.

Price and Payment of Services

02 Taksi charges standard fees for the Service, according to its price list. Price list for phone calls is available at https://02taksi.fi/english/book-a-taxi/. The price for the taxi service is based on the chosen Partner’s price list. During orders by phone 02 Taksi informs the User of the Partner’s pricing principles according to regulations in law. Partner charges the price of the taxi service according to its own practices. 02 Taksi provides the User an estimated price for the taxi service upon request, if one is available. Providing a price estimate is subject to the User providing information about the starting point and destination of the journey. If the starting point and destination are not disclosed, 02 Taksi may provide the User with pricing principles upon request. A Partner may apply an additional surcharge to pre-ordered taxi services according to its own price list, payable to the Partner in connection with payment of the taxi service.

Time Estimates

02 Taksi relays the arrival time estimate from a Partner to the User in connection with confirming the order, if one is available. Arrival time estimate is solely an estimate, the accuracy of which can not be guaranteed. The correctness of the estimate is affected by e.g. traffic conditions, traffic congestions and weather conditions. 02 Taksi or Partner shall not be liable for the correctness or inaccuracy of the arrival time estimate or any cost or loss to the User caused by the same.

Special Requests and Needs

When ordering via phone, the User may make special request about the taxi service, e.g. related to the size or accessories of the vehicle, transporting pets or the need for children’s safety seats. 02 Taksi shall use its best efforts to take these User’s special requests into account when relaying an order to a Partner. Partner shall fulfil any special requests on its own account and 02 Taksi can not guarantee fulfilment of requests or availability of additional services.

02 Taksi provides services also to Users with limited mobility or functionality. Special requests related to Users with limited mobility or functionality may only be received and relayed to Partners on orders made in advance.

02 Online Channel

The price possibly indicated in the 02 Online Channel is based on information provided by the Partner. 02 Taksi is not liable for the correctness of the price estimate in the 02 Online Channel.

The Service uses the locating functionality of the User’s device to provide search results near the User’s location. The User may also use the Service without locating functionality.
