Terms of service

1. Introduction

1.1. These Terms and Conditions constitute a legally binding agreement (the “Agreement”) made between you (the “User”) and Hi Romeo (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”), a company established in Spain, with Tax ID (NIF): B75502435, and registered address at Palencia 16, 08227 Terrassa, Barcelona, Spain, concerning your purchase of an international data plan (a “Data Plan”) relating to a prepaid eSIM (an “eSIM”), for use on your personal device (your “Device”), from Hi Romeo (the “Service”).

1.2. Future agreements between the User and Hi Romeo may in addition be subject to supplemental terms and conditions or documents that may be posted on our website (the “Website”).

1.3. We recommend that you print or save a copy of these Terms and Conditions for future reference.

2. Registration

2.1. The User may register to purchase an eSIM through our Website. The User must accept these Terms and Conditions to register and purchase an eSIM. Hi Romeo’s Privacy Policy and Cookies Policy are displayed on the Website when the User registers to purchase an eSIM.

3. Purchase of an eSIM and Activation

3.1. If you purchase an eSIM from us (via the Website), you enter into an agreement with us for the purchase of the eSIM and agree to pay to us all applicable charges in accordance with the Data Plan for the eSIM purchased.

3.2. You will be responsible for the eSIM as soon as it is delivered to you. If you damage or lose your Device before you have paid for the eSIM in full, you will still be required to pay us the full price of the eSIM.

3.3. You may purchase an eSIM through one of Hi Romeo’s partners (“Third Parties”). If you purchase an eSIM from a Third Party, you enter into an agreement with that Third Party for the purchase of the eSIM and Hi Romeo is not a party to such an agreement.

3.4. Hi Romeo shall make available Data Plans which relate to specific countries. Hi Romeo reserves the right to restrict the availability of such Data Plans in some jurisdictions. Users can search, select and purchase our Data Plans on the Website, or through Third Parties.

3.5. By using the Service, the User acknowledges that they have an unlocked, eSIM-compatible Device, which is required in order to access the eSIM.

4. Duration and Termination

4.1. This Agreement shall commence once you purchase the eSIM. After you have downloaded the eSIM onto your Device and the Data Plan is activated, the downloaded eSIM shall continue to remain on your Device after credit has been expended on your Data Plan or your Data Plan has expired. The User may choose to remove the eSIM via their Device settings at any time; however, we recommend that the User does not remove the eSIM until their Data Plan has been consumed or expired. The download of the eSIM and the activation of any Data Plan may require a stable internet connection.

4.2. The duration of the term of this Agreement will be until the Data Plan has expired or until credit has been expended in accordance with the Data Plan purchased.

4.3. This Agreement will terminate immediately upon any of the following events occurring:
4.3.1. consumption or expiry of the Data Plan by the User in accordance with clause 4.2; or
4.3.2. suspension by Hi Romeo of the User’s use of the eSIM or Data Plan for breach of these Terms and Conditions (including any breach of applicable laws).

4.4. Upon termination in accordance with clause 4.3.1, if you do not delete the eSIM immediately from your Device upon consumption or expiry of the Data Plan, the eSIM shall be provided to you on an “as is” basis without a warranty of any kind. Hi Romeo shall have no liability to you for such eSIM in accordance with this clause 4.4 until such time that you purchase any further eSIM or Data Plan from us, at which point these Terms and Conditions shall apply.

5. Warranty

5.1. These Terms and Conditions are in addition to your statutory rights as a consumer.

5.2. Hi Romeo gives no warranty and makes no representations in relation to the eSIM, or the Service, and all warranties and conditions (save to the extent that they are required by applicable laws) whether express or implied by statute, common law or otherwise are excluded to the extent permitted by law.

5.3. Hi Romeo reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to discontinue the sale, provision or support of any eSIM at any time.

6. Service Availability

6.1. Hi Romeo shall take commercially reasonable steps to make the Service available to you at all times, contingent upon Hi Romeo and its service providers’ ability to maintain network capacity and connection availability.

6.2. Hi Romeo partners with service providers to provide the Service, including network service providers. These vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

6.3. If you purchase an “unlimited” Data Plan please note your data coverage and speed may be subject to a network service provider’s fair use policy. This means that in order to ensure a high quality of service for all users, the network service provider reserves its right to impose restrictions or limitations on data usage or speed if your usage is deemed excessive or if it negatively impacts the network performance of other users.

6.4. Hi Romeo does not guarantee network capacity, network quality or connection availability of the Service. This includes (but is not limited to) any of the following circumstances:
6.4.1. when our service providers need to perform upgrading, maintenance or other work on their network services;
6.4.2. when you are in areas not covered by the network of our service providers or outside the areas specified in your Data Plan;
6.4.3. where factors outside of our control cause disruption, such as disruption caused by the features or functionality of your Device, regulatory requirements, faults in communication networks, the weather, radio interference or other physical obstructions.

7.1.1. use the eSIM in compliance with these Terms and Conditions;
7.1.2. use the eSIM in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations of the country in which the User is present or ordinarily resident;
7.1.3. not use the eSIM to engage in any action that is fraudulent, criminal or illegal or causes the network to be impaired or damaged;
7.1.4. not use the eSIM to copy, store, modify, publish or distribute Hi Romeo’s commercial information (including trade secrets) except where we give you permission;
7.1.5. not use the eSIM to download, send or upload content of an excessive size, quantity or frequency; and
7.1.6. not use the eSIM in a way which breaches the intellectual property rights of a third party.

7.2.

8. Payment Terms

8.1. The User may register and buy the eSIM on the Website. Payment shall be processed by an authorised payment service provider acting on our behalf.

8.4. The User may choose to save the payment method during the payment process under the payment provider’s administration, so that for future purchases this information is automatically added without the User having to re-enter it. The User can delete the payment method information at any time. This payment method information may not be editable; if a change is requested, the User may need to delete the previous payment method and introduce a new one.
