Annex 3 NETWORK SERVICE TERMS
These Network Service Terms govern the Network Services to be provided by the Fulfilment Partner and form the basis of all Fulfilment Contracts (as defined below) entered into between the user of the Addison Lee Services in accordance with the Addison Lee Consumer Standard Terms (“Customer”) and a Fulfilment Partner.
1. INTERPRETATION
1.1 Unless otherwise set out herein all capitalised terms set out in these Network Service Terms shall have the meaning set out in the Terms.
1.2 In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between these Network Services Terms, the Terms and the terms of any booking made by a Customer in accordance with these Network Services Terms (“Fulfilment Booking”), the following shall be the descending order of precedence: first, the Network Services Terms, second, the Conditions and, third, the terms of the relevant Fulfilment Booking, unless any provision of any Fulfilment Booking is expressly agreed in writing by the Fulfilment Partner or Addison Lee, on behalf of the Fulfilment Partner, to override any provision of the Network Services Terms or the Conditions, in which case, the provision of the relevant Fulfilment Booking shall prevail.
2. BASIS OF NETWORK SERVICE TERMS
2.1 The Fulfilment Partner has appointed Addison Lee as its disclosed agent, acting as an intermediary between the Customer and the Fulfilment Partner (“Agency Arrangement“). The Customer acknowledges that Addison Lee accepts Fulfilment Bookings as agent for the Fulfilment Partner but is not a party to the Fulfilment Contract (as defined in paragraph 3 below).
2.2 The Fulfilment Partner shall supply the Network Services to the Customer in accordance with the Network Services Terms in all material respects. Each such Fulfilment Booking, once accepted in accordance with paragraph 3, shall constitute a separate contract for the provision of the Network Services specified in such Fulfilment Booking, subject to Network Service Terms.
2.3 A Fulfilment Booking constitutes an offer by the Customer to purchase Network Services in accordance with the Terms. The Fulfilment Booking shall only be deemed to be accepted by the Fulfilment Partner when the Fulfilment Partner accepts the Booking and Addison Lee on behalf of the Fulfilment Partner issues written acceptance of the Fulfilment Booking via email, text message or push notification from the App confirming the vehicle contact details and where available the driver who shall carry out the Fulfilment Booking (the “Fulfilment Driver”) Fulfilment Driver’s licence plate number, the Fulfilment Driver’s contact details and the Fulfilment Driver’s private hire vehicle licence number, or commencement of the Fulfilment Booking (whichever is the earlier), at which point and on which date and time a contract for the delivery of those services to which the Fulfilment Booking relates shall come into existence (“Fulfilment Contract“). Addison Lee, on behalf of the Fulfilment Partner, in its absolute discretion may decline to accept any Fulfilment Booking.
3. SUPPLY OF SERVICES
3.1 The Fulfilment Partner shall use all reasonable endeavours to meet any performance dates and times specified in a Fulfilment Booking but any such dates shall be estimates only and time shall not be of the essence for performance of the Network Services.
3.2 The Fulfilment Partner reserves the right to amend the Network Services, if necessary, to comply with any Applicable Law or if the amendment will not materially affect the nature or quality of the Network Services. The Fulfilment Partner shall ensure that:
(a) the Network Services shall be performed with reasonable care and skill; and
(b) the Network Services will be provided in accordance with Good Industry Practice.
If any of these provisions are breached, the Customer must notify Addison Lee, on behalf of the Fulfilment Partner, as soon as possible. The Customer must allow the Fulfilment Partner a reasonable time to remedy the breach, including (in the Fulfilment Partner’s discretion) by re-performing any relevant Network Services. This will be done without any additional charge to the Customer. If the Fulfilment Partner is able to do this within a reasonable time, this shall be the Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy in relation to such breach and the Fulfilment Partner will, subject to paragraph 7.1, have no other obligation or liability in relation to such breach.
3.3 The Fulfilment Partner shall endeavour to provide a Passenger Vehicle of the type specified by the Customer (and in the event that such a Passenger Vehicle is not available, an alternative vehicle) within any time for so doing given by the Fulfilment Partner.
3.4 The Customer acknowledges and agrees that unaccompanied Minors will not be permitted to travel alone in a Passenger Vehicle. Addison Lee, on behalf of the Fulfilment Partner, will notify the Minor’s parent or guardian and/or relevant regulatory authority, in the event that it suspects a Minor is travelling unaccompanied, and advise that the Fulfilment Booking cannot be completed without the Minor being accompanied. In exceptional circumstances and subject to the parent/guardian’s consent, the Fulfilment Partner may allow Teenagers to travel unaccompanied, provided that when making a Fulfilment Booking for any unaccompanied Teenager, the Customer must inform Addison Lee on behalf of the Fulfilment Partner that an unaccompanied Teenager will be travelling. Addison Lee, on behalf of the Fulfilment Partner, may at its discretion decline to accept such Fulfilment Booking and the Fulfilment Partner shall not be liable to the Customer or be deemed to be in breach of the Fulfilment Contract if it declines to accept such Fulfilment Booking. The Fulfilment Partner does not accept any additional responsibility for any Minor, or Teenager, who travels unaccompanied in a Passenger Vehicle.
3.5 The Fulfilment Partner may subcontract all or any part of the Network Services to any Fulfilment Drivers who are self-employed and contracted to the Fulfilment Partner (as opposed to being employees of the Fulfilment Partner) provided that the acts or omissions of the Fulfilment Drivers shall, as between the Fulfilment Partner and the Customer, be deemed to be the acts or omissions of Fulfilment Partner for the purposes of these Network Service Terms.
4. CHARGES
4.1 All amounts due under the Fulfilment Contract and/or the Network Service Terms shall be paid in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by Applicable Law) to Addison Lee as disclosed Agent for the Fulfilment Partner.
5. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
5.1 All Intellectual Property Rights belonging to a party prior to the entering into of any Fulfilment Contract, including all related intellectual property rights and moral rights to any modifications, derivative works, suggestions, ideas, enhancement requests, feedback, recommendations or other information provided by any other party in relation to those Intellectual Property Rights shall remain vested in that party.
5.2 All Intellectual Property Rights in or to any brand or trade mark shall remain vested in the owner of the relevant brand or trade mark and neither party’s trademarks nor brands shall be used by the other party for any purpose without the other party’s prior written consent.
6. DATA PROTECTION AND DATA PROCESSING

Annex 4 TAXI SERVICES TERMS
These Taxi Services Terms govern the provision of Taxi Services by a Taxi Driver and form the basis of all Taxi Contracts entered into between the Customer and a Taxi Driver.
1. INTERPRETATION
1.1 All capitalised terms set out in these Taxi Services Terms shall have the meaning set out in the Conditions, unless otherwise stated.
1.2 In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between these Taxi Services Terms, the Conditions and the terms of any Taxi Booking, the following shall be the descending order of precedence: first, the Taxi Services Terms, second, the Conditions and, third, the terms of the relevant Taxi Booking, unless any provision of any Taxi Booking is expressly agreed in writing by CCL or an Addison Lee Group Member to override any provision of the Taxi Services Terms or the Conditions, in which case, the provision of the relevant Taxi Booking shall prevail.
References to ‘Addison Lee’ or ‘CCL’ shall be taken to include reference to any applicable Addison Lee Group Member, as the case may be.
2. BASIS OF TAXI SERVICE TERMS
2.1 The Taxi Driver has appointed CCL (or an Addison Lee Group Member, as the case may be) as its disclosed agent, acting as an intermediary between the Customer and the Taxi Driver. The Customer acknowledges that Addison Lee accepts Taxi Bookings, collects payment from the Customer and offers customer support services, on behalf of CCL, but is not a party to the Taxi Contract (as defined in paragraph 3 below).
2.2 The Taxi Driver shall supply the Taxi Services to the Customer in accordance with the Taxi Services Terms in all material respects. Each such Taxi Booking, once accepted in accordance with paragraph 3, shall constitute a separate Taxi Contract for the provision of the Taxi Services specified in such Taxi Booking, subject to these Taxi Services Terms.
2.3 A Taxi Booking constitutes an offer by the Customer to purchase Taxi Services in accordance with these Taxi Services Terms. The Taxi Booking shall only be deemed to be accepted when Addison Lee, on behalf of CCL (acting as agent for the Taxi Driver) issues written acceptance of the Taxi Booking via email, text message or push notification from the App confirming the vehicle details and, where available, the licence plate number, contact details and the Taxi licence number of the Taxi Driver who shall carry out the Taxi Booking, or commencement of the Taxi Booking (whichever is the earlier), at which point and on which date and time a contract for the delivery of those services to which the Taxi Booking relates shall come into existence (“Taxi Contract“). Addison Lee, on behalf of CCL (acting as agent for the Taxi Driver), may, in its absolute discretion, decline to accept any Taxi Booking.
3. SUPPLY OF SERVICES
3.1 The Taxi Driver shall use all reasonable endeavours to meet any performance dates and times specified in a Taxi Booking but any such dates shall be estimates only and time shall not be of the essence for performance of the Taxi Services.
3.2 The Taxi Driver reserves the right to amend the Taxi Services, if necessary, to comply with any Applicable Law or if the amendment will not materially affect the nature or quality of the Taxi Services. The Taxi Driver shall ensure that:
(a) the Taxi Services shall be performed with reasonable care and skill; and
the Taxi Services will be provided in accordance with Good Industry Practice.
If any of these provisions are breached, the Customer must notify Addison Lee as soon as possible. The Customer must allow the Taxi Driver a reasonable time to remedy the breach, including (in the Taxi Driver’s discretion) by re-performing any relevant Taxi Services. If the Taxi Driver is able to do this within a reasonable time, this shall be the Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy in relation to such breach and the Taxi Driver will, subject to paragraph 6.1, have no other obligation or liability in relation to such breach.
3.3 The Customer acknowledges and agrees that unaccompanied Minors will not be permitted to travel alone in a Taxi. CCL, on behalf of the Taxi Driver, will notify the Minor’s parent or guardian and/or relevant regulatory authority, in the event that it suspects a Minor is travelling unaccompanied, and advise that the Taxi Booking cannot be completed without the Minor being accompanied. In exceptional circumstances and subject to the parent/guardian’s consent, the Taxi Driver may allow Teenagers to travel unaccompanied, provided that when making a Taxi Booking for any unaccompanied Teenager, the Customer must inform Addison Lee that an unaccompanied Teenager will be travelling. Addison Lee may at its discretion decline to accept such Taxi Booking and the Taxi Driver shall not be liable to the Customer or be deemed to be in breach of the Taxi Contract if it declines to accept such Taxi Booking. The Taxi Driver does not accept any additional responsibility for any Minor, or Teenager, who travels unaccompanied in a Taxi.
4. CHARGES
4.1 The Customer shall pay the Taxi Charges in relation to the Taxi Services, as set out in appendix 1 to these Taxi Services Terms.
4.2 Payment shall be made to Addison Lee, on behalf of the Taxi Driver in accordance with the payment terms set out in the Terms.
4.3 All amounts referred to in relation to a Taxi Booking (save for the Service Fee specified in appendix 1 appendix 1to Annex 4, where value added tax will be paid in addition to the Service Fee) are inclusive of value added tax, where applicable.
4.4 All amounts due under the Taxi Contract and/or these Taxi Services Terms shall be paid in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by Applicable Law) to Addison Lee, on behalf of CCL as disclosed agent for the Taxi Driver.
5. DATA PROTECTION AND DATA PROCESSING
5.1 In relation to any and all Taxi Contracts, the Taxi Driver and the Customer shall:
(a) at all times comply with the Data Protection Legislation;
(b) to the extent applicable under the Data Protection Legislation, obtain and maintain all appropriate registrations required in order to allow that party to perform its obligations pursuant to any Taxi Contract; and
The Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Taxi Driver has nominated CCL in its capacity as disclosed agent to accept and respond to the Customer’s enquiries relating to Personal Data in the performance of the Taxi Contracts on the Taxi Driver’s behalf having consulted with the Taxi Driver at all times.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exclusions in paragraphs 6.2(a) and (b) shall not apply to any loss suffered by the Taxi Driver in the event of the Customer’s wrongful termination of these Taxi Services Terms or any Taxi Contract.
Subject to paragraph 1, the Taxi Driver shall not be liable, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, under any indemnity or otherwise, for any loss, damage, expense or liability incurred or sustained as a result of (a) the use of the Taxi Services in breach of the Terms and / or the Taxi Services Terms; and/or (b) any processing of personal data in accordance with the Customer’s instructions following the Customer’s receipt of that information.
6.4 This clause 6 shall survive termination of these Terms.
7.2 TRANSPORTATION OF GOODS
