HOMKA’s services are offered within the framework of partnerships with owners, or with a view to promoting their rental activity via partner platforms (notably Airbnb).

No online payment is required on the HOMKA website. The contract is formed once the Client has approved the quotation, by email, message or written agreement. Any confirmed order constitutes acceptance of these GTCS and of the personalised quotation.

Services are provided on the basis of a personalised quotation, sent to the Client before any work is carried out. Prices are stated in euros excluding VAT, with the applicable VAT specified on each quotation or invoice.

Payment is made by bank transfer, cheque or any other means agreed in writing between the parties. HOMKA’s bank details appear on each invoice.

8. Cancellation terms

8.1 Bookings via a platform (Airbnb, etc.)

For bookings made via a third-party platform, the applicable cancellation terms are those of the platform concerned at the time of booking. HOMKA cannot be held responsible for decisions taken by these platforms.

8.2 Services on quotation

If the Client cancels a service after approving the quotation, HOMKA reserves the right to invoice the costs incurred and, where applicable, a cancellation fee, the terms of which will be specified in the quotation.

9. Liability

HOMKA makes every effort to guarantee the quality of its services and those of its partners (cleaning providers, chefs, massage therapists, laundries, etc.).

However, HOMKA cannot be held liable:

  • In the event of default, unavailability or failure of an independent external service provider, duly reported as soon as possible.
  • In the event of a dispute between the owner and a tenant (damage, nuisance, conflicts).
  • In the event of force majeure (bad weather, strikes, pandemics, etc.) making it impossible to perform the services.

This data is used exclusively for the management and performance of the services. It is not passed on to third parties without consent, unless required by law. The Client has a right of access, rectification, erasure and portability by writing to: contact@homka.fr.

14. Amendments to the GTCS

HOMKA reserves the right to amend these GTCS at any time. The applicable GTCS are those in force on the date on which the Client approves the quotation.
