The ORDINARY USER who no longer wishes to participate in the content of the PLATFORM may discontinue their participation and close the user account by clicking on the “delete account” button, pursuant to the General Terms and Conditions. If there are any ongoing activities of the ORDINARY USER on the PLATFORM (including for example, unfinished transactions, published vehicles and similar), they are obliged to finalize them independently prior to deleting their account. Whereat, the ORDINARY USER is solely and exclusively responsible for any and all consequences that might arise if the ongoing activities are not finished prior to deleting their account. Upon the deletion of the account, any and all rights of the ORDINARY USER that can cease to exist in accordance with law shall cease to exist, and the ORDINARY USER shall entirely waive any and all rights resulting from these General Terms and Conditions or related to them.
However, this does not affect NEOSTAR’s right to disable the “delete account” option for the ORDINARY USER until all ongoing activities that the ORDINARY USER has pending on the platform are finished.
The PLATFORM can be used to enable easier sale and/or purchase of motor vehicles.
NEOSTAR enables use of PLATFORM and/or similar technology for sellers and/or buyers of motor vehicles and/or enables the help of the “NEOINSPECTOR” to simplify the procedure of motor vehicle sale. NEOSTAR and/or PLATFORM is not the owner and/or reseller of motor vehicles and/or representative (i.e. agent, intermediary or commission agent) of the seller and/or buyer.
At the moment of entering the data through the PLATFORM, and within the scope of possibilities to enter such data into the PLATFORM and to the extent that the PLATFORM enables it, the SELLER-USER shall (i) provide complete and accurate information about themselves and their motor vehicle (ii) disclose any flaws and/or limitations of the motor vehicle and (iii) provide any other relevant information. The SELLER-USER is solely responsible for the content and/or update of the data entered (including photographs).
The SELLER-USER is particularly responsible for the entry of data needed for the lawful processing of the payment transactions necessary to perform business processes that the SELLER-USER selects during use of the PLATFORM (this includes, but is not limited to, account number, IBAN and Swift/BIC code (if applicable). The SELLER-USER, in order for payment transactions to be enabled, is obliged to use their account number if the SELLER-USER is at the same moment the owner of the motor vehicle as well. If the SELLER-USER is not at the same moment the owner of the motor vehicle he is obliged exclusively to enter a number of the bank account of the owner of the motor vehicle. By accepting these General Terms and Conditions the SELLER-USER confirms that the bank account number they have entered on the PLATFORM is a personal bank account number of the owner of the motor vehicle and that there are no legal obstacles to conduct payments using that account. NEOSTAR acts presuming that the previously stated is true and/or accurate and if this is not the case, the SELLER-USER frees NEOSTAR from any responsibility that can arise from SELLER-USER’S opposite behavior.
The SELLER-USER is the only person responsible for posting the price (price without fee) of the motor vehicle they are selling through and/or with the help of the PLATFORM (including all taxes and/or costs that the SELLER-USER must bear according to the applicable rules, if these exist, including VAT / administrative charge if applicable, delivery costs, other handling costs and other costs), whereat the SELLER-USER accepts that they shall not offer the vehicle in a different way at a lower price. The price of the motor vehicle (price without fee), which the SELLER-USER posts pursuant to the previous sentence, shall be increased by an automatically generated fee (that cannot amount to less than HRK 3499.00 (in writing: nine hundred and ninety-nine Kuna and nil Lipa) increased by the applicable amount of VAT charged to the Fee in question (more on the term “Fee” can be found under: Conditions Of Use “Fees”), which shall then be the purchase price of the motor vehicle (hereinafter: “Purchase price of the motor vehicle“ or “Purchase price”).
The SELLER-USER shall change the price (price without fee) of the posted motor vehicle if they change the price of the respective motor vehicle on other platforms/online classifieds so that the price of the respective vehicle on other platforms/online classifieds is not lower than the price posted on the PLATFORM. In case of failure to comply with this provision, NEOSTAR reserves the right not to publish and/or delete particular ad.
Photographs and/or animations and/or video recordings (collectively, “images”) used in the USER’s ads shall reflect the exact quality and condition of the motor vehicle and are sole responsibility of the USER. NEOSTAR shall reserve the right to demand that ad(s) have a minimum number of photographs of a certain format, size and resolution.
The SELLER-USER starts the procedure of publishing an ad in order to sell a motor vehicle, having been previously registered to use the PLATFORM, by stating and/or attaching the data (price, photographs, written text, etc.) on the PLATFORM, all for the purpose of advertising respective motor vehicles in order to sell them. The PLATFORM and/or NEOSTAR shall not be held liable for the quality and/or truthfulness of data regarding the motor vehicles entered by the SELLER-USER.
SELLER-USER that is CONTRACTUAL USER has the possibility to decide whether they will check the option “Instant” next to the vehicle (“Instant” means that the vehicle is always available for purchase and that a potential BUYER-USER may purchase it, regardless of the option referring to the price - “fixed” or “non-fixed”) or “Non-instant” (“Non-instant” means that a motor vehicle does not always have to be available for purchase and that a potential BUYER-USER has to first ask if the respective vehicle is available and/or suitable for sales).
The PLATFORM enables USER to enter the data based on preset categories. After such data entry the motor vehicle shall have the status “Not Verified” and in that status shall not be visible to potential buyers. An advertisement published in that way shall contain the message “Vehicle in arrival” because the procedure of selling a vehicle is only possible if NEOSTAR conducts the Initial verification of the respective motor vehicle pursuant to the conditions for the verification (these conditions are described in the Conditions of use “Verification of a motor vehicle and the NEOSTAR warranty”).
If motor vehicle and data referring to it meet the publication conditions (publication conditions are described in: Conditions of use “Publication of motor vehicle sales advertisements”), which is to be confirmed by NEOSTAR through the NEOINSPECTOR, it shall be published on the PLATFORM so they are publicly visible to all the VISITORS and USERS of the PLATFORM (status “Verified”). Difference in the status arises from the fact that the motor vehicle with the status “Not Verified” is not checked by NEOSTAR through the NEOINSPECTOR while the motor vehicle with the status “Verified” is checked by NEOSTAR through the NEOINSPECTOR in predefined number of items („Check List“).
If the USER wants that the advertisement is published with the status “Verified”, respective option can be selected through the PLATFORM in a way that the USER, together with the notice that the USER’s advertisement is published with the status “Not Verified”, receives additional notification with an offer for publication of respective motor vehicle with the status “Verified” – APPROVED BY NEOSTAR. The USER initiates further process by selecting a date while the rest of the process (cheking) is done by NEOINSPECTOR.
The act of publication itself shall not be considered neither general offer nor display of goods or invitation to bid or make an offer.
After a motor vehicle has passed the process of the Initial verification (the Initial verification means that NEOSTAR accepted the motor vehicle for sale through the PLATFORM), interested BUYER-USER, in order to start a possible sales procedure of the selected motor vehicle (hereinafter: “Selected motor vehicle”), shall act as follows:
- if the option “Instant” next to the motor vehicle is checked, then the BUYER-USER will send an inquiry to the SELLER-USER that is CONTRACTUAL USER with regard to the quoted price (if the SELLER-USER that is CONTRACTUAL USER advertises the motor vehicle stating that the price is not fixed, the BUYER-USER is allowed to offer a lower price, with the limitations stipulated in the Conditions of use “Publication of motor vehicle sales advertisements”).
- If the option “Non-instant” next to the motor vehicle is checked, the BUYER-USER sends an inquiry to the SELLER-USER that is CONTRACTUAL USER to find out if the vehicle in question is available and/or suitable for sale, and to ask about the offered price (if the SELLER-USER advertises the motor vehicle stating that the price is not a fixed one, the BUYER-USER is allowed to offer a lower price, with the limitations stipulated in the Conditions of use “Publication of motor vehicle sales advertisements”).
If the SELLER-USER that is CONTRACTUAL USER replies that the selected motor vehicle is available (if the option “Non-instant” next to the motor vehicle is checked) and/or suitable for sales and/or that the price offered by the BUYER-USER is accepted (if such an inquiry/request has been forwarded to them) - the BUYER-USER shall be able to first select how the Purchase-price shall be paid and reserve the selected vehicle. The selected motor vehicle shall be considered reserved from the moment of reservation until moment the financing procedure is finished (the moment when the financing procedure is finished is the moment of the Purchase price payment), but not longer than 5 (five) days.
Having selected the Purchase price payment method and having selected and/or clicked the field “Buy Now”, the BUYER-USER is forwarded, in order to conduct the reservation procedure pursuant to the conditions for monetary transactions and reservation (conditions are described in: Conditions of use “Monetary transactions and reservations”), to a safe website for online authorization of credit cards of intermediary in online payment: WEB STUDIO d.o.o., Ćićarijska 10, HR-51000 Rijeka, OIB: 17859403608 (“Web Secure Payment Gateway – WSPay”) (hereinafter: “WSPay”).
On the website for credit card online authorization, the USER enters their credit card and owner data, and by clicking on the field “Pay” conducts the payment of the means on the credit card in the fixed amount of EUR 49 € (in writing: forty-nine euro; hereinafter: “Authorization amount”) to the NEOSTAR account. The payment procedure of the previously stated amount is possible with the following credit and debit cards: Visa®, Mastercard®, Maestro® and Diners®.
As well, payment of the Authorization amount can be done offline, at the purchase places of SELLER-CONTRACTUAL USER, by accessing the POS terminals of the intermediary in payment Monri Payments d.o.o., Radnička cesta 54, HR-10000 Zagreb, OIB: 82551932122 (hereinafter: “Monri”).
By completely entering the required data and conducting the authorization of the amount necessary for the reservation it shall be considered that BUYER-USER sent a request to SELLER-USER to obtain an offer for the purchase of the motor vehicle BUYER-USER marked as selected vehicle in the previously described procedure.
After the authorization of the amount necessary for the reservation has been conducted BUYER-USER will, to their e-mail address, receive from the SELLER-USER an offer for the purchase of the Selected motor vehicle in which data of the owner of the motor vehicle shall be visible. In the respective offer the following links shall be stated:
- - a link to open informative contents of the Contract on the purchase of the motor vehicle (final version of the Contract on the purchase of the motor vehicle shall be created based on the circumstances of the type of USER and other circumstance stated in the procedure of the sales-purchase described in the Conditions of use: “Type of documents - Contents of the documents”).
- a link to the text of the Check list (the contents of the Check List are contained in the in the Conditions of use: “Verification of motor vehicle and NEOSTAR warranty”).
- a link to the text „General Terms and Conditions of the NEOSTAR warranty“ and “Scope of the NEOSTAR warranty“ (conditions for obtaining the NEOSTAR warranty are described in the Conditions of use: “Verification of motor vehicle and NEOSTAR warranty”).
Only upon the signing of the Contract on the sales-purchase of the motor vehicle, it is confirmed that all requirements form the submitted offer have been met. Duration of the respective offer depends on the selected payment method of the Purchase price and it is stated in the offer. BUYER-USER and SELLER-USER accept they shall, irrespective of the Purchase price payment method, and depending on whether the SELLER-USER is an ORDINARY USER or CONTRACTUAL USER, the procedure of the motor vehicle sales-purchase itself shall be conducted as follows:

By signing the Motor Vehicle Sales-purchase Contract, the BUYER-USER acknowledges that the vehicle meets their demands and accepts the sale on “as is” basis;
vi. If the BUYER-USER, after being previously noticed by the NEOINSPECTOR, fails to access to the final verification and/or taking over of the motor vehicle within the period from item (ii) above, it shall be understood that the BUYER-USER abandoned the procedure of the motor vehicle sales-purchase.

The SELLER-USER acknowledges that the moment of the arrival of portion of the Purchase price (price without fee) to their account depends on circumstances that are not necessarily under NEOSTAR’s control (for example, the rules of procedure of business banks) and that therefore the moment of arrival shall not necessarily be the day when NEOSTAR places an order to conduct the respective transaction.

The SELLER-USER acknowledges that the moment of the arrival of portion of the Purchase price (price without fee) to their account depends on circumstances that are not necessarily under NEOSTAR’s control (for example, the rules of procedure of business banks) and that therefore the moment of arrival shall not necessarily be the day when NEOSTAR places an order to conduct the respective transaction.
Both BUYER-USER (in case they are ORDINARY USER) and SELLER-USER have the possibility to schedule a test ride through the PLATFORM until the moment of the selected vehicle purchase realization. Depending on NEOSTAR’s decision, NEOINSPECTOR shall participate in the respective test ride.
We point out to the BUYER-USER that the selected motor vehicle purchase quote, which the BUYER-USER may receive to their e-mail address from the SELLER-USER, shall contain data about the owner of the motor vehicle. It is possible that the SELLER-USER of the motor vehicle is not its owner; instead, the SELLER-USER may carry out the operations on the PLATFORM based on the authorization of the owner of the motor vehicle in question.
Although by accepting these General Terms and Conditions the SELLER-USER guarantees that the motor vehicle in question is their sole property or that they have all valid authorizations required under the applicable regulations to carry out the activities pertaining to the vehicle on the PLATFORM, NEOSTAR advises the BUYER-USER to do the following immediately prior to the purchase of the selected motor vehicle (e.g. immediately prior to receiving the motor vehicle and the Motor vehicle sale-purchase contract into their possession):

The PLATFORM can be used to enable easier contracting of the motor vehicles service.

The entry of data and choice of publishing options shall be considered an invitation to conclude a contract on marketing cooperation with NEOSTAR. NEOSTAR shall provide the USER with a draft Contract on business cooperation (which will define terms and conditions of advertising and the license needed for the use of the software solution) within a maximum of 15 (fifteen) days. By signing the Contract/s, the USER shall become the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER. NEOSTAR reserves the right to refuse to conclude a business cooperation contract with the USER, and the aforementioned shall therefore not be considered an invitation to submit a quote and/or any binding NEOSTAR action.
The USER who wishes to have their motor vehicle serviced and therefore uses the PLATFORM to access the advertised CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER and enters the information in the designated platform categories shall become the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER from the moment of submitting an inquiry and/or request to service the motor vehicle to the CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER and/or reservation of the time slot for the service of the motor vehicle and/or the payment of the service fee for the motor vehicle service.

The CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER declares and warrants that they are in the VAT system and that they shall do business in such a way that they remain in the VAT system for the entire duration of the relationship with NEOSTAR and/or PLATFORM.
At the moment of entering the data through the PLATFORM, and within the scope of the possibilities to enter such data into the PLATFORM and to the extent that the PLATFORM enables it, the CONTRACTUAL USER -SERVICER shall (i) provide complete and accurate information about themselves and their workshop (ii) disclose any flaws and/or limitations of their workshop and/or the services they provide and (iii) provide any other relevant information. The CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER is solely responsible for the content and/or update of the data entered. The CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER is particularly responsible for the entry of data needed for the lawful processing of the payment transactions necessary to perform business processes that the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER selects during use of the PLATFORM (this includes, but is not limited to, account number, IBAN and Swift/BIC code (if applicable). The CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER is obliged to use their account number in order for payment transactions to be enabled, and by accepting these General Terms and Conditions they confirm that they have entered their own bank account number on the PLATFORM and that there are no legal obstacles to conduct payments using that account. NEOSTAR acts presuming that the previously stated is true and/or accurate and if this is not the case, the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER releases NEOSTAR from any responsibility that can arise from CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER’s opposite behavior.
In particular, the CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER declares and warrants that there are no limitations (e.g., but not limited to, blocked account, inability to conduct clearance payments, prohibition to use term funds, and they are obliged to deposit the cash they received by performing registered business to their bank account ) with regard to the financial transactions relating to their business account to be carried out in a manner and within the deadlines stipulated in these general terms, the Contract on business cooperation and/or related documents. The CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER shall do business by complying fully with the statement and warranty given in the previous sentence for the entire duration of the relationship with NEOSTAR and/or PLATFORM at all times.
NEOSTAR shall not regularly check the content that the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER publishes/uploads, but it reserves the right (not an obligation though) to remove malicious or illicit content when NEOSTAR establishes that such content had been published on the web-site. Copyright materials, including without limitation to, software, graphics, texts, sound, video and music records, must not be published without the legally valid approval from the copyright owner or an equivalent document.
The CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER is the only person responsible for posting the price of the motor vehicle service and/or time slots for the service of motor vehicles they advertise through and/or with the help of the PLATFORM (including all taxes and/or costs that the CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER must bear according to the applicable rules).
The CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER starts the procedure of publishing an ad in order to offer motor vehicle servicing, on the condition that they have previously been registered to use the PLATFORM and have concluded a Contract on business cooperation with NEOSTAR, by stating and/or attaching the data (price, photographs, written text, etc.) on the PLATFORM, all for the purpose of advertising motor vehicles servicing. Photos and/or animations and/or videos (collectively, "images") used in the ads of the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER must accurately reflect the quality and condition of the service workshop and/or business premises/real estate where the workshop is located and are the exclusive liability of the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER. NEOSTAR shall reserve the right to demand that ad/s have a minimum number of photographs of a certain format, size and resolution.
The motor vehicle servicing process starts when the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER selects the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER on the PLATFORM and indicates in the "designated field" the requested service (which may include goods/parts to be installed when performing the service, therefore, under these general terms and conditions, servicing entails works and/or goods/parts cumulatively if the ordered service contained both) and the time and date of vehicle servicing (if this is “Instant” service) or will propose the date and time of vehicle servicing (if this is “Non-instant” service).
If the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER indicates that they offer “Instant” vehicle servicing, this also means that they shall perform the service ordered by the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER at the time (date and/or hour) indicated as available and selected by the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER. The "Instant" option does not require confirmation of the time slot by the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER since the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER chooses the available time slot and the selected time slot cannot be changed/cancelled by the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER.
When the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER indicates that the service is performed as “Non-instant”, this also means that they shall perform the service ordered by the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER at the time that is subsequently arranged and/or communicated (through the PLATFORM) between the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER and the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER. Therefore, the "Non-instant" service requires the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER to confirm the time entered/requested by the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER. If the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER does not confirm the time entered/requested by the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER within 24 (twenty-four) hours, the time shall be deemed not agreed, i.e. rejected by the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER.
The CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER shall perform the agreed servicing of the motor vehicle for the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER:
1) professionally;
2) for the fee specified and as such visible on the PLATFORM;
3) within the designated/agreed time and place.
The motor vehicle service is provided as a cumulative set of works and/or goods/parts predefined and arranged by groups which are, for the purposes of these general terms and conditions, called "service packs". A service pack includes all works conducted by the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER for the duration specified by the vehicle manufacturer/factory normative) and/or all goods/parts necessary to perform a particular service and can normally be classified as "Economy" or "Premium".
The “Economy” service pack includes professional and expert work of the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER and/or the goods/parts necessary to perform a particular service, positioned in the lower to mid-price range in the motor vehicles goods/parts retail market.
The “Premium” service pack includes professional and expert work of the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER and/or the goods/parts necessary to perform a particular service, positioned in the mid- to high-price range in the motor vehicles goods/parts retail market.
NEOSTAR does not participate in determining the manufacturer of the goods/parts installed in the vehicle, and this matter is entirely the subject of the relationship between the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER and the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER, whereas the possible choice is defined by selecting "Economy" or "Premium" standard service pack by the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER.
Furthermore, the Platform shall enable the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER to create their own so-called "custom-made" service packs, either as preset packs or packs created through direct contact with USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER.
After selecting the motor vehicle service time and indicating the type of the motor vehicle service, the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER may order the service by paying in advance or just by ordering the service without paying for it in advance (in this case, the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER shall pay for the service after its completion, within the due period as indicated on the invoice of the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER). Servicing payment is regulated in accordance with the conditions for monetary transactions and reservation (the conditions are described in: Conditions of use “Monetary transactions and reservation”, subsection: “Monetary transactions for motor vehicle servicing”).
Upon agreement of the time slots and scope of the service, the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER will receive a confirmation in his personal inbox stating that the following information will be visible:
1) the content of the servicing ordered,
2) data about the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER,
3) date and time of the servicing ordered,
4) fee for the servicing of the motor vehicle.
Servicing performance, i.e. the moment it was conducted as well as the content of the rights and obligations, taking into account the circumstance that NEOSTAR enables CONTRACTUAL USERS - SERVICERS and/or USERS - CUSTOMERS OF THE SERVICER to use the PLATFORM and/or related technology in order to advertise and/or simplify the process of ordering a motor vehicle service, represents solely the relationship between the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER and the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER, hence the information on the circumstances of the ordered servicing being carried out, which are relevant for the storing and/or payment of monetary amounts in the form of the fee for the service in accordance with the "Terms of use "Monetary transaction and reservation", sub-group: “Monetary transactions for the conducted vehicle service", NEOSTAR shall receive from the CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER, which the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER agrees to.
NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM are not the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER and/or USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER of motor vehicles and/or dealer (i.e. agent, broker or commission agent) of the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER and/or USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER. Pursuant to the above mentioned, NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM provide no warranty for the service performed by the CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER and/or its quality, or any other type of warranty and/or guarantee with regard to the relationship of the CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER and/or the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER, unless otherwise provided by these general terms and conditions.

If the “Moment of the Selected motor vehicle purchase realization” does not occur, the amount of the paid Purchase price and/or a part of the paid Purchase price in NEOSTAR’s account shall be returned/paid to the BUYER-USER to their account (from which the payment was made by the BUYER-USER) within a time period of 90 (ninety) days from the day of the payment of the respective Purchase price at the latest.

Use of the package: “Sale and purchase of motor vehicles“
NEOSTAR has the right to charge an appropriate Fee to the SELLER-USER for enabling the SELLER-USER to use the package of services (package of services encompasses all services and/or benefits arising out of the PLATFORM and/or acquired by the SELLER-USER based on use of the PLATFORM) available on the PLATFORM (hereinafter: “Fee”).
The Fee represents the fee for the SELLER-BUYER’s successful realization of the Selected motor vehicle sale by using the package of services given to the SELLER-BUYER’s disposal on the PLATFORM and it amounts to 1% (in writing: one percent) of the contracted Purchase price, increased by the applicable amount of VAT charged to the Fee in question, whereat the minimum fee shall amount to not less than HRK 999.00 (in writing: nine hundred and ninety-nine Kuna and nil Lipa) increased by the applicable amount of VAT charged to the Fee in question and the maximum fee shall amount to not more than HRK 3,999.00 (in writing: three thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Kuna and nil Lipa) increased by the applicable amount of VAT charged to the Fee in question.
For the purpose of these General Terms and Conditions it shall be considered that all amounts NEOSTAR possibly settles in the name and on behalf of the SELLER-USER are included in the amount of the Fee.
The SELLER-USER, as the only person responsible for the respective action, posts the price of the motor vehicle (price without fee) they are selling through and/or with the help of the PLATFORM (including all taxes and/or costs that the SELLER-USER must bear according to the applicable rules, if these exist, including VAT/administrative charge if applicable), whereat the SELLER-USER accepts that they shall not offer the vehicle in a different way at a lower price. The price of the motor vehicle, which the SELLER-USER posts pursuant to the previous sentence, shall be increased by adding the aforementioned percentage of the automatically generated fee (with the abovementioned limitation of minimum and maximum fee), and shall then be considered as the Purchase price of the motor vehicle i.e. Purchase price.
The right to the Fee is due immediately after the “Moment of the Selected motor vehicle purchase realization”, and NEOSTAR shall charge it from the amount of the Purchase price it holds at that moment in the name and on behalf of the SELLER-BUYER, within 1 (in writing: one) working day.
Exceptionally, if the SELLER-BUYER uses the PLATFORM as a tool to store the data about the vehicles they intend to sell thus limiting themselves the use of the package of services made available to them through the PLATFROM, and sells the vehicles independently, without using any other service from the package made available through the PLATFORM (to clarify, a vehicle shall not be published on the Platform i.e. it shall not be visible to third parties through the Platform), he will be charged a Discounted Fee amounting to 0.5 % (in writing: nil point five (half) percent) of the contracted Purchase price, increased by the applicable amount of VAT charged to the Fee in question.
The right to the Discounted Fee is due immediately after the Moment of the Selected motor vehicle purchase realization, and NEOSTAR shall charge it from the amount of the Purchase price, within 1 (in writing: one) working day.
An overview of Fees charged for the use of the package of services through the PLATFORM shall be visible to the SELLER-USER in their personal profile or shall be delivered to them by e-mail which the SELLER-USER registered on the PLATFORM. Additionally, each charged Fee shall be accompanied by a corresponding invoice that the SELLER-USER shall receive from NEOSTAR in their personal profile and/or by e-mail which the SELLER-USER registered on the PLATFORM.
By accepting these General Terms and Conditions, the SELLER-USER gives explicit and irrevocable consent to NEOSTAR allowing NEOSTAR to deduct and withhold any amount that the SELLER-USER owes to NEOSTAR from the amount that NEOSTAR owes to the SELLER-USER at any moment, pursuant to laws and regulations.
NEOSTAR reserves the right to amend conditions and/or amount of fee/s, under the same conditions valid for these General Terms and Conditions.
The procedure of potential motor vehicle publication for the purpose of selling it by using and/or through the PLATFORM starts when the SELLER-USER enters necessary data.
The SELLER USER shall guarantee that the respective motor vehicle is their sole propriety or that they dispose of all valid authorizations for the respective vehicle that are necessary, in line with the applicable laws and regulations, to conduct activities on the PLATFORM, that there are no disputes before the court or chosen court (arbitration) with regard to the respective motor vehicle, and that the respective motor vehicle is free of any encumbrance, lien, or third party rights, registered or not, that exclude, diminish or limit the right of BUYER-USER (this rule does not pertain to the CONTRACTUAL USER who concludes a separate business cooperation contract with NEOSTAR, prior to gaining their status, that regulates, among other thing, the conditions of buying or selling a thing of another).
At the moment of entering the data through the PLATFORM, and within the scope of possibilities to enter such data into the PLATFORM (for example the SELLER-USER states the condition of the vehicle by selecting the options “Very good”, “Good”, “Satisfactory (road worthy)” and to the extent that the PLATFORM enables it, must (i) provide complete and accurate information about themselves and their motor vehicle (ii) disclose any flaws and/or limitations of the motor vehicle and (iii) provide any other relevant information. The SELLER-USER is solely responsible for the content and/or update of the data entered (including photographs).
By accepting these General Terms and Conditions, the SELLER-USER is obliged to and guarantees that they will not use the PLATFORM for any kind of organized and biased political activity and that they will not publish or spread illicit content, including the following:
- Defamatory, disturbing or threatening messages and content;
- Mentioning of illicit activities with an intent of committing them, or encourage others of doing such activities;
- Violating or illegally appropriating other people’s intellectual property, including copyrights, registered trademarks and trade secrets;
- Content that contains profane and inappropriate language or pictures;
- Advertising, promotional and other materials for commercial purposes, if they are not directly linked to activities conducted through the PLATFORM i.e. That are not the subject of sales and/or services and/or damage reporting and processing;
- Content malicious for other users or visitor of the PLATFORM;
- Any content that violates applicable national or international regulations (including, for instance, any activity contrary to Recommendation No. R(97) 20 of the Council of Europe on “Hate Speech”, to the Act on Prevention of Discrimination (Official Gazette no. 85/08 and no. 112/12) or those that in any way encourage violence or hatred or represents any form of discrimination);
- Content that checks or tests vulnerability of an internet system or network;
- Content that violates or circumvents security measures;
- Content that distracts or endangers activities and work of any user, domain or network, for example, by sending computer viruses, spam e-mails, “bombarding” with mails and similar;
- Content that covertly spreads malicious software (malware).
NEOSTAR shall not regularly check the content that the SELLER-USER publishes/uploads, but it reserves the right (not an obligation though) to remove malicious or illicit content when it NEOSTAR has established that such content had been published on the web-site. Copyright materials, including without limitation to, software, graphics, texts, sound, video and music records, cannot be published without legally valid approval from the copyright owner or equivalent document. Furthermore, by registering on the web-site, the SELLER-USER confirms they shall not: a) reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell or resell or use any part of the platform apart from what they are allowed to do pursuant to these General Terms and Conditions; (b) use the name, trademark, servers or any other material of NEOSTAR and BUSINESS PARTNERS to send unsolicited or illicit e-mails and other forms of communication; (c) use any automated or electronic means to access the PLATFORM (including without limitation to robots, spiders, scripts or tools to take down web-sites); (d) set up pop-up ads or any other content that disrupts and endangers the visibility of the PLATFORM or (e) disturbs and interferes with the web-site or servers and networks connected with the PLATFORM, or in any way violates conditions, procedures and regulations of the network connected with the PLATFORM. Finally, by registering on the PLATFORM the SELLER-USER guarantees they will not access or try to access the accounts of other persons and represent themselves falsely during the use of the PLATFORM.
Photographs and/or animations and/or video records (collectively, “images”) used in USER’s ads shall reflect the exact quality and condition of the motor vehicle and are the sole responsibility of the USER. NEOSTAR shall reserve the right to demand that ad/s have a minimum number of photographs of a certain format, size and resolution.
By the same token, NEOSTAR reserves the right, through predefined categories for data entry or by examining the data the SELLER-USER freely enters, not to publish a certain motor vehicle, for example, but without limitation:
i. Motor vehicle production year (motor vehicle cannot be older than 15 (fifteen) years);*
ii. Motor vehicle mileage (motor vehicle’s mileage cannot exceed 250,000 (two hundred and fifty thousand) kilometres);*
iii. Incomplete data that are a prerequisite for the publication of the motor vehicle (entry is not possible without complete data i.e. one of the prerequisites is to enter all data);
iv. Based on the general condition of the motor vehicle (for example, damage visible on the photographs);
v. Low-quality of the published photographs;
vi. In case there is reason to believe that a vehicle is not at the site of delivery (in the contracted area where the PLATFORM undertakes its business activities – the area where the legal person/entity/subject who is the rightholder of the PLATFORM is registered);**
vii. General non-conformity of data.
* Respective restrictions shall not apply to SELLER-USER who is CONTRACTUAL USER. However, in such case related motor vehicle could be sold only “offline” and provisions on the NEOSTAR Warranty shall not be applied to it.
** SELLER-USER who is CONTRACTUAL USER shall be allowed to publish motor vehicle that, in the moment of publication, is not situated in the contracted area where the PLATFORM undertakes its business activities – the area where the legal person/entity/subject who is the rightholder of the PLATFORM is registered.
The SELLER-USER starts the procedure of publishing an ad in order to sell a motor vehicle, having been previously registered to use the PLATFORM, by stating and/or attaching the data (price, photographs, written text, etc.) on the PLATFORM, all for the purpose of advertising the motor vehicles in order to sell them. Although the PLATFORM usually enables entry of data based on the predefined categories, the content for publication is the personal choice of the SELLER-USER. The PLATFORM and/or NEOSTAR shall not be held liable for the quality and/or truthfulness of data regarding the motor vehicles entered by the SELLER-USER.
SELLER-USER being CONTRACTUAL USER has the possibility to decide whether they will check the option “Instant” next to the vehicle (“Instant” means that the vehicle is always available for purchase and that a potential BUYER-USER can purchase it, regardless of the option referring to the price - “fixed” or “non-fixed”) or “Non-instant” (“Non-instant” means that a motor vehicle does not always have to be available for purchase and that a potential BUYER-USER has to first ask if the vehicle in question is available and/or suitable for sales).
Data selected by the SELLER-USER shall be published on the PLATFORM with the status “Not Verified” and in that status shall not be visible to potential buyers. An advertisement published in that way shall contain the message “Vehicle in arrival” because the procedure of selling a vehicle is only possible if NEOSTAR conducts the Initial verification of the respective motor vehicle pursuant to the conditions for the verification (these conditions are described in the Conditions of use “Verification of a motor vehicle and the NEOSTAR warranty”).
If motor vehicle and data referring to it meet the publication conditions (publication conditions are described in: Conditions of use “Publication of motor vehicle sales advertisements”), which is to be confirmed by NEOSTAR through the NEOINSPECTOR, it shall be published on the PLATFORM so they are publicly visible to all the VISITORS and USERS of the PLATFORM (status “Verified”).
The act of publication itself shall not be considered neither general offer nor display of goods or invitation to bid or make an offer.
An advertisement being once published can be modified, depending on the status of the USER. CONTRACTUAL USER can independently modify published data related to motor vehicle up to the moment when the offer is created (in other words, if a document such as the offer / invoice for pre-payment or similar exists, data related to motor vehicle cannot be modified anymore). ORDINARY USER may make respective modifications only with the assistance of the NEOINSPECTOR.
The SELLER-USER is the only person responsible for posting the price (price without fee) they sell through and/or with the help of the PLATFORM (including all taxes and/or costs that the SELLER-USER must bear according to the applicable rules). The price of the motor vehicle which is, pursuant to the previous sentence, posted by the SELLER-USER, plus the PLATFORM Fee which is automatically generated, presents the Purchase price of the motor vehicle or the Purchase price.
The SELLER-USER has the possibility to decide whether they will mark the price (price without fee) as fixed (and by doing so disable a potential BUYER-USER from negotiating about the Purchase price and leave them only with the option to accept it) or as non-fixed (enabling the potential BUYER-USER to offer a lower Purchase price).
When offering lower Purchase price by potential SELLER-USER, the BUYER-USER does not allow potential BUYER-USER to post unusually low price as it, by accepting these General Terms instructs the PLATFORM to create bottom recommended limit of the Purchase price below which potential BUYER-USER cannot post an offer.
With regard to the price posted by the SELLER-USER who is an ORDINARY USER and/or in reference to the price offered by potential BUYER-USER (below listed conditions under which a right not to publish and/or a right to delete an advertisement shall be withheld shall be mutatis mutandis applied to potential BUYER-USER as well, i.e. to his actions during negotiating sale-purchase of the motor vehicle), the PLATFORM reserves the right to publish and/or delete the ad in the following cases:
- If the price posted by the SELLER-USER is too high (“Unusually high price”) and it can therefore be considered that the SELLER-USER does not really intend to sell the motor vehicle, and that the primary cause of them joining the PLATFORM is their own marketing;
- If the price posted by the SELLER-USER is too low (“Unusually low price”) and it can therefore be considered that the SELLER-USER circumvents applicable laws and regulations (dumping, paying the difference up to the market price through channels different from those envisaged by the PLATFORM);
- If the price posted by the SELLER-USER is not lower than the price of the respective motor vehicle that the SELLER-USER had published on other platforms/classifieds (“Lowest price guarantee”).
In order to avoid potential misunderstandings the PLATFORM shall, pursuant to the data SELLER-USER entered, offer a SMART price option as a recommended price which the SELLER-USER will be able to select for entry.
To calculate the SMART price which will be offered to the SELLER-USER as an option to select, parameters available to NEOSTAR on the respective market shall be used.
Generally, NEOSTAR shall rank the advertisements on the PLATFORM by timeline of their publication, in a way that the later advertisement on the PLATFORM is placed above the earlier one. However, the placement and ranking of the entry in the search results on the PLATFORM can vary and depend on multiple factors, such as parameters and settings of the USER’s search.
Since the SELLER-USER is solely responsible for the entry and accuracy of the motor vehicle data (among other things, the SELLER-USER is the only person responsible for posting the price (price without fee) of motor vehicle they are selling through and/or with the help of the PLATFORM, including all taxes and/or costs that the SELLER-USER must bear according to the applicable rules, if these exist, including VAT/administrative charge if applicable) entered into the corresponding rubrics of the PLATFORM, NEOSTAR recommends that the SELLER-USER always checks these data when entering them. Usually, rectification of data shall be possible only by deleting the old entry and entering the motor vehicle data.
NEOSTAR enables the use of the PLATFORM and/or related technology for CONTRACTUAL USERS - SERVICERS and/or USERS – CUSTOMERS OF THE SERVICERS of motor vehicles, for the purpose of advertising and/or simplifying the ordering process of motor vehicle service.
NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM are not the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER and/or USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER of motor vehicles and/or dealer (i.e. agent, broker or commission agent) of the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER and/or USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER.
The procedure of potential motor vehicle publication for the purpose of advertising motor vehicle service by using and/or through the PLATFORM starts when the USER enters necessary data. The entry of data and choice of publishing options shall be considered an invitation to conclude a contract on business cooperation with NEOSTAR. NEOSTAR shall provide the USER with a draft Contract on business cooperation (which will define the terms and conditions of advertising and the license needed for the use of the software solution) within a maximum of 15 (fifteen) days. By signing this contract, the USER shall become the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER.
The USER who wishes to have their motor vehicle serviced and therefore uses the PLATFORM to access the advertised CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER and enters the information in the designated platform categories shall become the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER from the moment of submitting an inquiry and/or request to have their motor vehicle serviced to the CONTRACTUAL USER – the SERVICER and/or reservation of the time slot for the servicing of the motor vehicle and/or the payment of the service fee for the motor vehicle servicing.
THE CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER shall guarantee that the concerned workshop for the servicing of motor vehicles is their sole property or that they have all valid authorizations required under the applicable regulations and needed to orderly conduct activities on the PLATFORM, that no dispute proceeding is being conducted before the court or the elected arbitration court in respect of the workshop concerned and that no burden, pledge, or third party rights, whether written or not, that exclude, diminish or limit the right of the CONTRACTUAL USER -SERVICER burden the workshop.
If they meet the conditions for publication (the conditions for publication are described in: the Conditions of use “Publication of motor vehicle sales advertisements”), they shall be published on the PLATFORM so they are publicly visible to all the VISITORS and USERS of the PLATFORM.
The motor vehicle servicing process starts when the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER selects the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER on the PLATFORM and indicates in the "designated field" the requested service (which may include goods/parts to be installed when performing the service, therefore, under these General terms and conditions, servicing entails works and/or goods/parts cumulatively if the ordered service contained both) and the time and date of vehicle servicing (if this is “Instant” service) or will propose the date and time of vehicle servicing (if this is “Non-instant” service).
If the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER indicates that they offer “Instant” vehicle servicing, this also means that they shall perform the service ordered by the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER at the time (date and/or hour) indicated as available and selected by USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER, while in case that the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER indicates that the service is performed as “Non-instant”, this also means that they shall perform the service ordered by the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER at the time that is subsequently arranged and/or communicated (through the PLATFORM) between the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER and the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER.
After selecting the motor vehicle service time and indicating the type of motor vehicle service, the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER may order the service by paying in advance or just by ordering the service without paying for it advance (in this case, the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER shall pay for the service after its completion, within the due period as indicated on the invoice of the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER).
The CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER starts the procedure of publishing an ad in order to offer motor vehicle servicing, on the condition that they have previously been registered to use the PLATFORM and concluded a Contract on business cooperation with NEOSTAR, by stating and/or attaching the data (price, photographs, written text, etc.) on the PLATFORM, all for the purpose of advertising motor vehicles servicing. Photographs and/or animations and/or video recordings (collectively, “images”) used in the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER’s ads shall reflect the exact quality and condition of the service action and are sole responsibility of the CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER. NEOSTAR shall reserve the right to demand that ad/s have a minimum number of photographs of a certain format, size and resolution.
The CONTRACTUAL USER – SERVICER has the option to decide whether motor vehicle services will be performed on a fixed date, as indicated by the "Instant" option ("Instant" means that the time slot for servicing the motor vehicle is available and/or accessible at the exact date and/or hour and will be displayed as available in the corresponding menu so that a potential USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER can choose it as the desired date and/or time of service) or "Non-instant" ("Non-instant" indicates that a specific confirmation of the time and/or date of the service of the motor vehicle is required.)
The "Instant" option does not require confirmation of the time slot by the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER since the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER chooses the available time slot and the selected time slot cannot be changed/cancelled by the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER.
The "Non-instant" service requires the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER to confirm the time entered/requested by the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER. If the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER does not confirm the time entered/requested by the USER - CUSTOMER OF THE SERVICER within 24 (twenty-four) hours, the time shall be deemed not agreed, i.e. rejected by the CONTRACTUAL USER - SERVICER.

Date of Initial verification / Date of Final verification
___________________ ___________________
The BUYER-USER is warned about the difference in condition of the Selected motor vehicle between the Initial verification and Final verification by the Check List. It shall be understood that the BUYER-USER agreed with them and accepted them that by signing of the Motor Vehicle Sales-purchase Contract.
The SELLER-USER who is an ORDINARY USER needs to confirm time and place where a NEOINSPECTOR shall inspect a motor vehicle prior to the initiation of the Initial motor vehicle verification procedure. The SELLER-USER who is an ORDINARY USER is responsible for the coordination and organization of the inspection by a NEOINSPECTOR and hereby clears NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM and/or NEOINSPECTOR of any damage that might arise. The SELLER-USER who is an ORDINARY USER takes note of and agrees not to launch any claims against the above mentioned on the grounds of purchase and/or use of product and/or services as well any other grounds.
The Initial verification procedure shall be conducted within 3 (in writing: three) working days from the day of publishing the ad containing the message “Vehicle in arrival”. Otherwise, the published ad shall be deactivated.
The SELLER-USER takes note of this and accepts the fact that Motor vehicle initial verification does not constitute a form of warranty and that NEOSTAR does not provide any guarantee for the good working order and/or characteristic of the respective motor vehicle. As much as the Initial verification can be of use when making decision on buying a motor vehicle, the Initial verification is no warranty and/or guarantee that the inspected vehicle contains no damages and/or that NEOINSPECTOR and/or the PLATFORM and/or NEOSTAR has identified all existing defects on the motor vehicle.
However, successfully conducted Motor vehicle initial verification means that the respective motor vehicle, under suspensive conditions listed below, can acquire the right to NEOSTAR warranty which can be activated at the Moment of the selected vehicle sale-purchase realization, with start and application date immediately following the Moment of the selected vehicle sale-purchase realization.
For this purpose, the SELLER-USER must mark whether the respective motor vehicle has or does not have the Existing warranty on vehicle.
If the respective vehicle has Existing warranty on vehicle, the SELLER-USER needs to enter:
- date of expiry of Existing warranty on vehicle
- mileage limit after which Existing warranty on vehicle expires.
After a motor vehicle has passed the process of the Initial verification (the Initial verification means that NEOSTAR accepted the motor vehicle for sale through the PLATFORM and that the respective motor vehicle acquires the status “Verified” – APPROVED BY NEOSTAR), interested BUYER-USER, in order to start a possible sales procedure of the selected motor vehicle, sends an inquiry to the SELLER-USER to check whether the Selected motor vehicle is available and/or suitable for sale, and an inquiry pertaining to the offered Purchase price.
FINAL VERIFICATION
In order to conduct the Final verification procedure, the motor vehicle needs to be in the Republic of Croatia.
a) When the SELLER-USER is an ORDINARY USER:
Upon the payment of the Purchase price (on the condition that this payment is made during the time period for the payment of Purchase price in line with the offer), within a further time period of 5 (five) working days, NEOINSPECTOR shall inspect the motor vehicle in the name of and on behalf of the BUYER-USER, at the address of the SELLER-USER.
NEOINSPECTOR confirms that the Selected motor vehicle meets verification requirements i.e. NEOINSPECTOR confirms that all verification conditions have been realized, additionally taking into consideration possibly exceeded mileage to 500 (in writing: five hundred) kilometres as of the mileage entered at the moment of publication.
NEOINSPECTOR can make an exception with regard to the stated verification requirements (Selected motor vehicle does not meet one or more verification requirements) only if they have obtained a written consent from the BUYER-USER that needs to be provided at the place of the Final verification and at the moment of signing of the Motor Vehicle Sales-purchase Contract as by this the BUYER-USER agrees with respective deviations and accepts them.
BUYER-USER receives the Selected motor vehicle into possession and in addition to the motor vehicle also receives 3 (three) copies of the signed Motor vehicle sale-purchase contract (signed by the SELLER-USER and/or the person who signs the contract in the name and on behalf of the SELLER-USER).
After being signed by the BUYER-USER 1 (one) copy of the Motor vehicle sale-purchase contract shall be given to the SELLER-USER.
The BUYER-USER shall keep 2 (two) Motor vehicle sale-purchase contracts for the purpose of registering ownership in the registration license of the Selected motor vehicle and appropriate public register at the testing centre in charge.
By signing the Motor vehicle Sales-purchase Contract, the BUYER-USER acknowledges that the vehicle meets their demands and accepts the sale on “as is” basis.
b) When the SELLER-USER is a CONTRACTUAL USER:
Upon the payment of the Purchase price (on the condition that this payment is made during the time period for the payment of the Purchase price in line with the offer), within a further time period of 5 (five) working days, the BUYER-USER shall inspect the motor vehicle, at the address of the SELLER-USER.
The BUYER-USER shall acknowledge that the Selected motor vehicle meets their demands (by signing the Motor vehicle sale-purchase contract, whereby the BUYER-USER accepts the purchase on “as is” basis);
The BUYER-USER receives the respective motor vehicle into their possession, and in addition to the Selected motor vehicle also receives 3 (three) copies of the signed Selected motor vehicle sale-purchase contract (signed by the SELLER-USER and/or the person who signs the contract in the name of and on behalf of the SELLER-USER).

The PLATFORM may be used to enable easier sale and/or purchase of motor vehicles and/or contracting motor vehicle service and/or motor vehicle damage reporting process.
The PLATFORM has no legal capacity or the capacity to act as a party in a legal proceedings and is not a contracting party in any of the above stated transactions.
Information about a certain motor vehicle is submitted by the USER and/or BUSINESS PARTNER and not NEOSTAR. Price and other conditions of any sale-purchase and/or service provision remain the subject of direct negotiations between the SELLER-USER and BUYER-USER i.e. the ordering party and the acting party, while the service of the PLATFORM is only to assist in the process and within the scope described in these General Terms and Conditions.
In order to enable and/or to make transactions between the USER and/or BUSINESS PARTNERS easier, the PLATFORM offers the content of the documents (drafted only in the Croatian language and Latin script), which USERS and/or BUSINESS PARTNERS, in case they wish to perform their transactions (sale-purchase of motor vehicles and/or servicing of motor vehicles and/or reporting damage on motor vehicles) through the PLATFORM and/or NEOSTAR, may use:
Division per groups:
A/ Sale-purchase of motor vehicles:
1) OFFER (sale-purchase of motor vehicles) (form available on the following link: […]);
2) MOTOR VEHICLE SALE-PURCHASE CONTRACT (that serves as the bill of lading) (form available on the following link: […]);
3) CHECK LIST (Initial and Final Verification) (form available on the following link: […]);

The PLATFORM enables USER to enter the data based on preset categories. In this way, a CONTRACTUAL USER (not an ORDINARY USER) can, among other things, in his name and on his behalf, create an informative calculation of certain tax contributions (including, but without limitation to, motor vehicle transactions tax). CONTRACTING USER is informed of and acknowledges that the respective calculations are only informative and that they cannot be used for other purposes. Taking the above mentioned into consideration, NEOSTAR does not assume any liability with regard to the CONTRACTING USER in terms of these calculations.
USERS and/or BUSINESS PARTNERS are solely responsible for determining their obligations to report, collect, submit and include their transactions and/or prices for the sale of goods and/or services any applicable VAT and/or income tax and/or profit tax and/or any other tax. NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM does not have any responsibility for the calculation of tax liability and/or displaying tax liabilities with regard to the transactions of the USER and/or BUSINESS PARTNERS on and/or regarding the PLATFORM.
Tax regulations may demand from NEOSTAR to collect corresponding tax data and/or deduct taxes from payment to USERS and/or both. If tax and/or any other regulations demand this from us, NEOSTAR reserves the right to keep a particular or all payments up to the tax relevant amount. If this is demanded from the relevant and/or competent authorities and/or any tax administration, NEOSTAR is authorized to provide to the above mentioned authorities any information it possesses regarding the USERS and/or BUSINESS PARTNERS and/or their transactions that take place on and/or with regard to the PLATFORM, regardless of the nature of the participants of those transactions.
The USER is the only person responsible for posting the price (price without fee) of the motor vehicle they sell through and/or with the help of the PLATFORM (including all taxes and/or costs that the USER must bear according to the applicable rules, if they exist, including VAT/administrative charge if applicable). NEOSTAR therefore explicitly recommends to the USER to become acquainted with the tax treatment of the motor vehicle whose data they enter/upload on the PLATFORM as the choice of appropriate tax form applicable to the desired transactions through the PLATFORM is, among other things, sole responsibility of the USER.

In case the SELLER-USER is a natural person who enters into a legal transaction or acts on the market outside the scope of their market, business, trade or professional activity, they shall - pursuant to the Consumer Protection Act - have a status of a consumer. In this case, the following provisions are applied to the relationship between the SELLER-USER and NEOSTAR:
In accordance with the provisions of Article 5, paragraph 1 of the Consumer Protection Act (the Official Gazette, no. 41/14, 110/15 and 14/19):
- a "distance contract" is a contract concluded between the trader and the consumer within an organized system of selling or providing services without the simultaneous physical presence of the trader and consumers in one place, where, by the time the contract is concluded, one or more means of remote communication are used exclusively to conclude the contract (item 27);
- “outside business premises contract" is a contract between the trader and the consumer (item 28):
o which was concluded while the trader and the consumer were physically present in a place that does not represent the business premises of the trader, even when the consumer made the offer;
o which was concluded in the trader's premises or via means of remote communication immediately after the trader approached the consumer personally and individually in a place other than their business premises, where the trader and the consumer were physically present at the same time;
or
o which was concluded during the trip organized by the trader with the intention or purpose of promoting or selling goods or services to the consumer.
The SELLER-USER who has the status of a consumer and no longer wishes to participate in the content of the PLATFORM may terminate their participation and close the user account by clicking on the “delete account” button, pursuant to the General Terms and Conditions. If there are any ongoing activities of the SELLER-USER, who has the status of the consumer on the PLATFORM (including for example, unfinished transactions, published vehicles and similar), they are obliged to finalize them independently prior to deleting their account. The SELLER-USER, who has the status of the consumer, is solely and exclusively responsible for any and all consequences that might arise if the ongoing activities are not finished prior to deleting their account. Upon the deletion of the account, any and all rights of the SELLER-USER, who has the status of the consumer, that can cease to exist in accordance with the law shall cease to exist, and the SELLER-USER, who has the status of the consumer, shall entirely waive any and all rights resulting from these General Terms and Conditions or related to them.
However, this does not affect the right of NEOSTAR to disable the SELLER-USER who has the status of the consumer from deleting an account until the ongoing activities of the SELLER-USER who has the status of the consumer on the PLATFORM are finished, if this is in accordance with the applicable regulations.
The SELLER-USER with consumer status shall be entitled to terminate the contractual relationship concluded with NEOSTAR outside the premises or remotely, unilaterally within 14 (fourteen) days without the need to specify the reasons for termination by terminating their participation on the PLATFORM and closing the account by clicking the delete account button, in accordance with the General Terms and Conditions.
For the purposes of these General Terms and Conditions, it shall be considered that all amounts which NEOSTAR possibly pays for and on behalf of the SELLER-USER are included in the amount of Fee (for further details, see section "Fee" - the fee is the compensation for the success of the SELLER-USER in the selling process of the Selected motor vehicle, and the right to compensation is due immediately after the “Moment of the Selected motor vehicle purchase realization”).
By accepting these General Terms and Conditions, the SELLER-USER who has the status of the consumer confirms they are aware of the fact that they are not entitled to a unilateral termination of the contractual relationship with NEOSTAR if the service is fully provided.
In case of deviation from the provisions of this title and other provisions contained in these General Terms and Provisions, the provisions of this title shall take precedence in interpretation over the rights of the consumer.
If the provisions of this title are not clear and unambiguous to the SELLER-USER, we recommend that the SELLER-USER deregisters and/or deletes their profile from the PLATFORM.
In case the BUYER-USER is a natural person who enters into a legal transaction or acts on the market outside the scope of their market, business, trade or professional activity, and the SELLER-USER is a trader as defined in the Consumer Protection Act, then the BUYER-USER, in accordance with the Consumer Protection Act - has the status of a consumer. In this case, additional provisions defining the business of the SELLER-USER with consumers apply to the relationship between the SELLER-USER and the BUYER-USER, all in accordance with the provisions of Article 5, paragraph 1 of the Consumer Protection Act (the Official Gazette, no. 41/14, 110/15 and 14/19).
The SELLER-USER accepts and understands that neither NEOSTAR nor the PLATFORM represent the contractual party between the SELLER-USER and the BUYER-USER and that meeting all legal requirements for the realization of the transaction between the SELLER-USER and the BUYER-USER, including, but not limited to those required by the Consumer Protection Act, is the sole responsibility of the SELLER-USER.
As set out in the provisions of the Consumer Protection Act (the Official Gazette, no. 41/14, 110/15 and 14/19) we notify the USER that, when they are treated as consumer pursuant to the Consumer Protection Act, they can send their complaint stating their dissatisfaction with regard to the service provided through the PLATFORM operated by NEOSTAR, in writing as follows:
- At NEOSTAR’s business premises located at: NEOSTAR d.o.o., Zagrebačka 117, HR-10410 Velika Gorica, OIB: 24813383735. USER shall receive a written confirmation of the complaint receipt without delay; or

Restriction, suspension and termination
In the event of a restriction or suspension of the provision of the NEOSTAR PLATFORM services to the CONTRACTUAL USER carried out by NEOSTAR, before or at the time restriction or suspension enters into force, NEOSTAR shall provide the CONTRACTUAL USER with a statement of reasons for that decision.
If NEOSTAR decides to terminate the provision of the NEOSTAR PLATFORM services completely to a specific CONTRACTUAL USER, to this CONTRACTUAL USER at least 30 (thirty days) days before termination enters into force, on the cloud by means of the following link: [link], while at the same time sending an e-mail to the CONTRACTUAL USER’s registered address, provides a statement listing the reasons for that decision, allowing the CONTRACTUAL USER access to the material in question that was sent to them personally within the time period (“storability”) and in a way that allows for its unaltered reproduction (“reproduction”) in accordance with the provisions of the Regulation 2019/1150.
The notice period referred to in the preceding paragraph shall not apply if NEOSTAR:

Ranking

Restriction of the offer of different conditions through other channels
Publishing of services/products of the CONTRACTUAL USER in other means of advertising at a price different from the one that the CONTRACTUAL USER has advertised on the NEOSTAR PLATFORM or through the NEOSTAR PLATFORM is considered a reason to suspend the provision of NEOSTAR services.
This restriction does not restrict the CONTRACTUAL USER 's ability to offer services/products under more favorable conditions through other channels, as the uniqueness of the service/ product offer on the NEOSTAR PLATFORM aims to ensure visibility and transparency, and to provide users of the NEOSTAR PLATFORM with a "one-stop-shop" solution, contributing to the improvement of the provision of the respective goods and/or services, the promotion of technological and/or economic development, thus providing proportionate benefits to the users of the NEOSTAR PLATFORM services . Therefore, the aim is to achieve the uniqueness of prices, but without imposing it, in line with the market conditions and free competition.
In no way shall NEOSTAR position one CONTRACTUAL USER in a more favorable position on the NEOSTAR PLATFORM in relation to another CONTRACTUAL USER.

This Privacy Policy regulates rights and obligations in accordance with the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation - hereinafter: “Regulation”), Act on the General Data Protection Regulation Implementation (OG 42/18) and other laws that regulate personal data protection with regard to the registration and use of the PLATFORM.
A legal person accessing the PLATFORM shall have the obligation to participate in the creation of necessary conditions pertaining to the personal data protection, to the highest possible extent, so that NEOSTAR, NEOSTAR’s affiliated companies and third persons appointed by NEOSTAR could appropriately use the data as authorized persons. If there is no permission for data processing based on law or any other legal rule, the Legal person accessing the PLATFORM is obliged to submit a declaration of consent for personal data processing to the respective persons and try to get their consent within the legally allowed framework. The Legal person accessing the PLATFORM is obliged to ensure possible forwarding of data within and outside of the EU in the declaration. The Legal person accessing the PLATFORM shall, upon NEOSTAR’s invitation submit the necessary personal data processing consents at any time, should NEOSTAR ask so. NEOSTAR shall have the right to store and keep personal and business data they have received from the Legal person accessing the PLATFORM even after the cessation of the business relationships which are subject of these General Terms and Conditions.
Personal data according to the Privacy policy (hereinafter: Privacy policy) are all data concerning an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter for the purpose of this Privacy Policy: “Data subject”); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
Processing of Personal Information in accordance with the Privacy policy means any operation or set of operations which is performed upon Personal data, whether or not by automatic means, such as collection, recording, organization, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination, structuring, restriction, or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, blocking or erasure, or destruction.
Personal data shall be processed pursuant to the guidelines contained in the applicable regulations/provisions of the Regulation, Act on the General Data Protection Regulation Implementation (OG 42/18) and other legal regulations in force that regulate data protection.
By providing and entering their personal data and confirming (clicking) that they accept the General Terms and Conditions and this Privacy policy, Data subject enters into a contractual relationship with NEOSTAR, thus, the processing of personal data collected in such a way is legal because actions are being taken at the request of the Data subject in order to realize the motor vehicle purchase and additional services as ordered by the Data subject.
If the Data subject does not provide mandatory information for a certain activity for which the PLATFORM requires information, they shall not be granted access to such activity because without these data, the activity on the PLATFORM shall not be executable. Withdrawal of consent shall disable the use of PLATFORM.
Data subjects are advised to read everything stated in the Privacy Policy in order to understand more easily which personal data NEOSTAR collects and processes, for which purpose, based on which legal grounds, with whom and why they they share them, what legal measures they undertake and what the rights of the Data subject are with regard to the access, rectification, erasure and complaint.
Controller:
NEOSTAR d.o.o., Zagrebačka 117, HR-10410 Velika Gorica, OIB: 24813383735,
Controller contact data:
+385 (0) 98 9802 081; e-mail: [email protected]
Data protection officer contact data: N/A (Data protection officer has not been appointed because there is no legal obligation to do so);
Processing purpose: NEOSTAR collects and processes personal data of the Data subject for the purpose of the contractual relationship i.e. the use of the PLATFORM, or to be more precise, for the purpose of conducting a secure check of the authenticity of the Data subjects who access the PLATFORM, realization of motor vehicle purchase contract and other accompanying activities, delivery of the motor vehicle to the Data subject, communication with the Data subject, possible legal procedures regarding the realization of the contract, and we partly apply automated processing procedures in order to constantly advance our processes in the best interest of our Data subjects, to make the offers more custom-made for Data Subjects and to adapt our scope of services as much as possible to the habits and needs of Data Subjects.
For the purposes of processing, NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM use certain tools which, among other things, enable marketing communication with the USERS.
Every marketing e-mail that NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM send to the USER shall contain a note explaining how to, easily and free of charge, refuse the use of data for marketing purposes collected by NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM/how to withdraw the consent for further use data for marketing purposes by NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM.
Through a link that shall be contained in every marketing email that NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM send to the USER, the USER will be able to access the [link] website and by selecting “Unsubscribe me from the mailing list” the USER may refuse the use of data for marketing purposes collected by NEOSTAR and/or PLATFORM/withdraw the consent to further use data for marketing purposes by NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM at any time.
Selecting the option “Unsubscribe me from the mailing list” shall disable all marketing communication, but shall not affect other activities that NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM undertake in connection with the USER (including but not limited to, USER data processing via marketing tools, but without sending marketing e-mails to the USER). All communication exchanged with the USER shall only be disabled if the USER as data subject generally withdraws their consent to process data. However, this may result in the inability to continue using the PLATFORM, if collected data are necessary for the implementation of a certain activity of NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM.
In addition to having the option “Unsubscribe me from the mailing list”, by accessing the website [link] the USER shall be able to opt for personalized marketing communication sent by NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM by choosing to receive the messages of a specific type/content only. However, by choosing the option “Unsubscribe me from the mailing list” found on the website” [link] and/or by opting for personalized marketing communication sent by NEOSTAR and/or the PLATFORM, and/or the option to choose to receive messages of a specific type/content, the USER shall be able to access only via the link contained in the e-mail sent by NEOSTAR/the PLATFORM to the USER, and not via the USER profile. This does not affect the right of the USER to generally withdraw their consent as a data subject as well as their right to unsubscribe and/or delete the profile from the PLATFORM.
Legal basis:
I. Specific regulation;
II. Contractual relationship;
III. Explicit and unambiguous Data subject’s consent;
In each of these three cases, for each specific database that the Controller sets up and/or activity that the Controller undertakes, legitimate interest of the Controller (e.g. legitimate interest can be reflected in the fact that some documents and personal data contained in them represent the proof of business activity and justification of the incurred business expense) shall be stated.
Collected data: name and surname, name of the legal person who owns the vehicle, OIB (PIN), IBAN, address, e-mail address, phone number, vehicle location, vehicle registration, VIN number, motor vehicle photographs. Special categories of personal data shall not be processed. We shall not collect data about children. If we come to understand that such data have been transferred to us without the consent of parents or guardians of underaged children (less than 18 years old), we shall immediately remove them. Minors (less than 18 years old) are not allowed to use the PLATFORM.
Apart from these data, NEOSTAR automatically collects data from the Data subjects device, which can include IP address and geo-location, and there are situations in which NEOSTAR automatically collects other types of data such as date and time of access to the PLATFORM, information about hardware, software or internet browser that Data subject uses as well as operating system and version of application and language properties.
NEOSTAR recommends to the user to take care of their password for the PLATFORM user account. We recommend you select a combination of characters that contain upper case and lower case letters and numbers and to use a password of at least six characters. We recommend that you change the password periodically (at least once a year).
Personal data recipients: The Controller does not normally forward nor give personal data to any unaffiliated third parties, and stores them safely on Controller’s server or an external server, subject to their own discretion, which can provide enough guarantee in terms of the implementation of technical and organisational measures so that personal data processing meets all the requirements set out in the Regulation and that it adequately ensures the protections of Data subjects’ rights.
In order to fulfill all their obligations, the Controller may forward Data subjects’ personal data to affiliated companies of the Controller so that they could appropriately use the data as authorized persons. The Controller can forward Data subjects’ data to third parties such as business partners, e.g. to on-line and/or offline authorization service providers. Furthermore, to the extent we need it, personal data may be forwarded to the legal persons who provide services to the Controller. These services might be: marketing help, credit card payment processing, providing services to the Data subjects (including legal, tax and financial advice) and sending messages on behalf of the Controller. The Controller shall limit personal data they deliver to the respective legal persons and they shall have access only to those data necessary for a particular purpose. Some personal data may be forwarded to the executive power of the Republic of Croatia at their request so that the Controller would meet legal or statutory obligations.
Controller’s Employees as well as employees of the aforementioned legal persons (as needed), out of which some can be in the USA and in other countries outside of the European Union, but whose job description justifiably requires access to these data in order to fulfill the purpose stated in this Privacy Policy, shall have access to the personal data. In accordance with the regular practice and work procedures when providing accounting services, personal data may be subsequently selected and revised by internal and external auditors of the Controller’s choice. Controller may transfer personal data within a group of connected persons i.e. may use third parties to store and process provided data in the USA or other countries that do not ensure equivalent level of personal data protection and applicability of personal data protection regulations that are in force in the Republic of Croatia, to the extent necessary for the aforementioned services of use, to meet legal requirements, to protect important public interest or process personal data. Controller shall undertake all reasonable steps in order to prevent the risk, with reasonable safeguards, from inappropriate or illicit access to personal data as well as to prevent their unauthorized use. With regard to that, in case personal data are sent to third countries, Controller shall enter into appropriate contractual relationship with the respective third parties (contracts with foreign Data subjects entail Standard Contractual Clauses in accordance with the Commission Decision C (2010) 593)) obliging them to safely store obtained data and not to use them for any other purposes, other than those stated in this form. (Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1250 as of July 12, 2016 confirmed that, for the purpose of Article 25, paragraph 2 of the Directive 95/46/EC, United States of America ensure appropriate level of personal data protection for the data transferred from the Union to organization in the United States of America within the EU-US Privacy Shield).
Storage period: Personal data shall be stored within a period which is needed to fulfill legitimate and lawful purpose, unless laws and regulations in force/provisions of the Regulation set out a different period.
In case consent is given, personal data shall be processed until consent is withdrawn. In case there is a request to erase the data, they shall be immediately erased unless set out differently in the regulations in force/provisions of the Regulation.
For example, on the grounds of accounting regulations, some data need to be stored at least 11 (eleven) years.
Data subjects’ rights: In accordance with the Regulation, among other things, Data subject has the right to transparency (Articles 12-14), right to access data (Article 15), right to have their data rectified (Article 16), right to have their data erased (“right to be forgotten”, Article 17), right to restriction of processing (Article 18), right to ask for a notification regarding rectification or erasure of personal data or restriction of processing (Article 19), right to data portability (Article 20), right to object (Article 21), right to object automated individual decision-making (including profiling, Article 22) and generally right to withdraw consent (Article 7) to the extent processing is based solely on Data subject’s consent.
Data subject’s withdrawal of their consent means they shall not be able to continue using the PLATFORM, if collected data are necessary for certain activities on the PLATFORM to be conducted.
Data subject’s withdrawal, if there are legal prerequisites for it, leads to anonymization of the registered PLATFORM USERS. Anonymization is the procedure of processing personal data which irreversibly prevents identification of a USER from processed data. As per definition, after correct anonymization it must not be possible to connect anonymized data with a particular person. Pursuant to the aforementioned, after data anonymization there is no way of retrieving the data in the same form as prior to anonymization.
Anonymization is possible:
- Through USER profile (valid for ORDINARY USERS, CONTRACTUAL USER and employees of CONTRACTUAL USERS). After anonymization, the application shall deregister USER.
The act of anonymization includes following activities:
- Selection of the particular USER
- Marking the USER as deleted
- Anonymization of the USER’s personal data using SHA256 hash method
o The following data are anonymized:
• E-mail address
• Name and surname
• OIB (PIN)
• IBAN
• Address
• Other personal data of the USER
- Creating a PDF document which records the act of the USER anonymization
o Document is displayed in order to be printed
o Document is permanently stored whereat the name of the file does not contain any personal data of the USER (Record on anonymization <timestamp>.PDF).
If the USER has ongoing activities on the PLATFORM (including transactions that are not finalized, published vehicles and similar), they are obliged to finish all of them independently before anonymization, within 15 (fifteen) working days at the latest, after which the process of anonymization shall be initiated. Whereas the USER is solely and exclusively responsible for any and all consequences that might arise if the ongoing activities are not finished prior to anonymization initiation. Upon anonymization, any and all rights of the USER that can cease to exist in accordance with law shall cease to exist, and the USER shall entirely waive any and all rights resulting from these General Terms and Conditions or related to them.
Data subject has the right to submit an objection to the supervisory authority - Personal Data Protection Agency.
If Data subject wishes to exercise any of their rights, they can address the Controller using the following contact data:
telephone: +385 (0) 98 9802 081; e-mail: [email protected]
Controller is obliged to provide information to Data subject within the deadline set out in the regulations/provisions of the Regulation in force. In case Data subject’s demands are unfounded or exaggerated, Controller has the right to charge a reasonable fee or refuse to take any action pursuant to the regulations/provisions of the Regulation in force.
Personal data protection safeguards: Controller shall undertake technical and organisational safeguards, which may include for example pseudoanonymization and/or anonymization, in order to enable efficient application of data protection principles such as: decreasing the amount of data and including safeguards in the processing to fulfill Regulation requirements and protect Data subjects’ rights.
NEOSTAR takes data protection seriously and undertakes different precautionary measures to keep data protected. Unfortunately, no data transmission via Internet or any other wireless measure is 100 % safe. Therefore, although NEOSTAR has reasonable safeguards to protect the data, it cannot guarantee protection of any information transmitted to and/or from the PLATFORM, and is not liable for any actions of any third parties that receive such information. NEOSTAR can decide to store personal data with service providers in the European Union (EU), and only under extraordinary circumstances outside of the EU. This shall be done only if there is a decision of the European Commission on appropriateness for this particular country and if safeguard and upholding of binding data protection regulations have been contracted.
Collected personal data are electronic and protected by SSL certificate which encrypts data thus ensuring that the communication between Data subject’s computer and the PLATFORM is conducted via secure protocol.
Controller’s expert and administrative staff processing personal data shall have in place all technical, human resource and organisational safeguards necessary to protect personal data from accidental loss or destruction, illicit access or amendment, illicit publication and any other misuse, and they establish obligations of the persons working on personal data processing.
By clicking the register button, Data subject accepts this Privacy Policy confirming that they read and understood it and agree with collection, processing and sharing of personal data in a way and to the extent set out in the Privacy Policy.
NEOSTAR may amend this Privacy Policy at any time by publishing the amended text of the Privacy Policy on the PLATFORM. Therefore, NEOSTAR invites Data subject to occasionally revise Privacy Policy which shall contain a remark about the amendments, if there will be any within a certain period of time.
If Data subject does not agree with this Privacy Policy, we advise Data subject to deregister and/or delete their profile from the Platform.
Cookies and other tracking technologies can be used on the PLATFORM in different ways e.g. To enable functioning of the PLATFORM and/or for marketing purposes.
Cookie is a small piece of data sent from a website and stored on the VISITOR’s computer (textual file stored on the VISITOR’s computer by the server which the VISITOR uses). Files originate when the browser on the VISITOR’s device uploads visited network destination, which then sends data to the browser and creates the textual file (cookie). The browser retrieves and sends the file to the servers of the network destination (place, website) when the user returns to it. Cookies are used to enable functioning of all internet site features and better USER experience. Cookie allows PLATFORM to “remember” VISITORS’ actions during their previous visits. Most browsers allow the use of cookies, but VISITOR can delete them or opt to have the storing disabled in the browser, at any time. The most frequent reasons to use cookies are: identification of VISITORS, remembering specific user preferences, help when entering information that had been entered during previous visits, collecting data for analyses and promotional campaigns. According to their functional division, cookies can be: necessary, functional and marketing.
Types of cookies
First party cookies
Cookies installed on the VISITOR’s device by an organization whose web site VISITOR is visiting are known as “first party” cookies.
Third party cookies
Cookies installed on the VISITOR’s device by an organization other than the one VISITOR is visiting are known as “third party” cookies. An example of “third party” cookies is cookie installed by a company specialized in web site analytics (such as Google Analytics) that provides the owner of the website with data about the number of people visiting it.
These cookies are not installed by the NEOSTAR platform and most often serve as help in interpreting the behavior of users and for marketing purposes.
