PartsMarkt Seller Terms and Conditions (Agreement with Vehicle Dismantlers / Trade Sellers)
These Seller Terms and Conditions (the "Terms") govern the relationship between the operator of the PartsMarkt platform and every trader who offers used auto parts through the platform. The Terms are drafted in plain and intelligible language in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2019/1150 (the "P2B Regulation"), Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (the "Digital Services Act", DSA) and Bulgarian law. The Commission and Fee Schedule, the Shipping Schedule and the Privacy Policy form an integral part of these Terms. The relationship between Sellers and Buyers is additionally governed by the Buyer Terms and Conditions.

2. Subject Matter. PartsMarkt as an Intermediary
2.1 Intermediation service
The Platform is an online intermediation service within the meaning of the P2B Regulation: it provides Sellers with the technical means to publish listings, conclude contracts with Buyers, receive payments through a payment service provider, and arrange delivery through a courier. The Platform is not a party to the contracts of sale between Seller and Buyer.
2.2 The Seller is the seller of record
For every Order, the seller under the contract of sale (the "seller of record") is the Seller. The Seller bears full responsibility for the goods, their description, conformity, safety and lawful origin, and for the performance of all obligations of a trader towards consumers (including statutory liability for lack of conformity and the handling of consumer complaints).
2.3 What the Platform does
The Platform: (a) hosts and displays the listings; (b) provides the ordering and payment process through a licensed payment service provider (Stripe); (c) arranges delivery through a courier in accordance with Section 8; (d) provides a messaging system between Buyer and Seller; (e) deducts the commission and fees under Section 7; (f) administers the dispute process between Buyer and Seller, without this replacing the statutory rights of consumers.
3. Eligibility and Trader Verification (KYB)
3.1 Who may sell
Only a trader registered under the law of the Republic of Bulgaria (or of another EU Member State, if admitted by the Platform) that carries on a lawful business of dismantling ELVs and/or trading in used auto parts may be a Seller. Sales by private individuals are not permitted.
3.2 Registration data (Article 30 DSA)
Before obtaining access to the selling features, the Seller shall provide, and the Platform shall make best efforts to verify, the following information:
- name, management address, telephone number and e-mail address;
- a copy of an identity document of the legal representative or equivalent electronic identification (eIDAS);
- payment account details (collected through the Stripe verification process under Section 9);
- the unified identification code (EIK) from the Commercial Register and, where applicable, a VAT number;
- a self-certification that the Seller will only offer products and services that comply with the applicable law of the EU and of the Republic of Bulgaria.
3.3 Keeping data current and consequences of inaccurate data
The Seller must keep the information under clause 3.2 up to date. If the Platform has reason to believe that information provided is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date, it will invite the Seller to correct it without delay. If the Seller fails to do so, the Platform is required under Article 30 DSA to suspend the Seller's offering of goods until the deficiency is remedied.
3.4 Declaration regarding ELV permits
The Seller declares and warrants that: (a) it holds all permits and/or registrations required for waste treatment activities and ELV dismantling under the Bulgarian Waste Management Act and the applicable ELV ordinance; (b) all parts offered have been lawfully removed from vehicles that have undergone the required depollution/draining of hazardous fluids; (c) the parts do not originate from vehicles of unestablished or unlawful origin. The Seller shall provide evidence of the above upon request.
4. Account and Security
4.1
The Seller registers one account per legal entity, unless the Platform permits otherwise in writing. Access to the account is by personal credentials, which the Seller may not share with third parties outside its own organisation.
4.2
The Seller is responsible for all actions performed through its account. If unauthorised access is suspected, the Seller shall notify the Platform immediately at support@partsmarkt.com.
4.3
The Platform may require additional verification where misuse is suspected and applies Section 13 where violations are established.
5. Listing Rules
5.1 Truthful and complete description
Every Listing must describe the specific part truthfully, accurately and in a non-misleading way, including: make, model and compatibility period; OEM number (where available); actual photographs of the specific item; all known defects, signs of wear and repairs performed; the mileage of the donor vehicle, where known; and whether the price includes VAT.
5.2 Condition grades
Every Listing must state one of the following condition grades:
| Grade | Meaning |
|---|---|
| A | Excellent condition — no visible defects, fully functional part |
| B | Good condition — normal signs of use, fully functional part |
| C | Acceptable condition — visible wear and/or cosmetic defects stated in the description |
| R | Refurbished/reconditioned part — has undergone repair or reconditioning described in the Listing |
The Seller is responsible for accurate grading. A material discrepancy between the stated grade and the actual condition is grounds for a complaint by the Buyer and for measures under Section 13.
5.3 Prices and currency
Prices are stated in euro (EUR) and are displayed simultaneously in Bulgarian leva (BGN) at the official fixed rate of the Bulgarian National Bank of 1 EUR = 1.95583 BGN. The Seller states whether the price includes VAT and sets a dispatch period (in business days) for each Listing; unless stated otherwise, the period is 2 business days. The Seller may state a delivery price or leave it to be calculated at checkout in accordance with the Shipping Schedule.
5.4 Prohibited and restricted items
It is prohibited to publish: (a) counterfeit or non-genuine parts presented as genuine; (b) stolen goods or parts of unestablished origin; (c) parts removed from vehicles in breach of the ELV treatment regime; (d) parts subject to an active recall, except after the non-conformity has been remedied; (e) airbags, seat-belt pretensioners and other pyrotechnic/explosive components, unless their sale and transport are expressly permitted and the Seller complies with all special requirements; (f) goods whose sale is prohibited by law. The Platform may supplement this list by published notice.
5.5 Product safety (GPSR)
Regulation (EU) 2023/988 on general product safety also applies to used, repaired and reconditioned products. The Seller warrants that it offers only safe parts, provides through the Platform's interface the safety information it owes to consumers, cooperates in withdrawal/recall measures, and notifies the Platform immediately if it learns that a part sold is dangerous or non-compliant. The Platform notifies affected Buyers of an illegal product in accordance with Article 32 DSA.
5.6 Moderation
The Platform may remove or restrict the visibility of a Listing, or of an individual image within it, that violates these Terms or the law. For the purposes of §5.7 the Platform uses automated tools that read the text contained in images (optical character recognition) and apply rules to the result; where the automated assessment is not conclusive, the decision is taken by a person. The Platform does not use these tools to profile the Seller and does not use them for any purpose other than those stated in §5.7. The Seller receives a reasoned notification and may object through the channel in Section 15.
5.7 Contact details, external references and personal data in Listings, photos and the Seller's profile
A Listing — including its title, description and every image — and images in the Seller's profile (logo, cover/banner image and profile photo) must not contain: (a) telephone numbers, e-mail addresses, postal addresses used for contact, social-media or messenger identifiers; (b) website addresses or the name of another marketplace or online shop; (c) QR codes or other machine-readable codes that lead to any of the foregoing. The name or logo of the Seller's business, without contact details, is permitted everywhere, including in its profile. The name and logo of the part's manufacturer, appearing on the part itself, on its label or on its packaging, are permitted. A website address of a manufacturer on the Platform's list of recognised manufacturers is also permitted and is reviewed by a person before any action is taken; a manufacturer's website address that is not on that list falls under point (b) above.
Images in Listings and in the Seller's profile must not show readable vehicle registration plates. Blurring a detected registration plate is the Platform's own measure to protect third parties' personal data under Section 4.2 of the Privacy Policy, and applies regardless of these Terms; the image remains published, and the unaltered original is, as a rule, stored securely for 7 days so that the action can be reversed (Section 4.2 of the Privacy Policy describes when the original is removed from its public address, as a rule within about two days, and the limited cases in which it stays there longer: a temporarily failed move, or the same file still being used elsewhere on the Platform).
Outside the case of registration plates under the preceding paragraph, where the Platform finds content contrary to this clause in an image from a Listing, it removes the individual image from the Listing; where it finds such content in an image from the Seller's profile, it removes the image there. In either case it notifies the Seller with reasons in accordance with §5.6. The Listing remains published, and the Seller's profile remains active. The Seller may replace the image at any time and may request a review of the decision at any time; as a rule, the stored original is deleted 7 days after the action, but not while a review request is pending.
5.8 Listings published by the Platform on the Seller's instructions
Listings that the Platform imports, uploads or publishes at the Seller's request or on its instructions (from files, feeds, the Seller's website or the Seller's listings on other platforms) are the Seller's Listings for all purposes of these Terms. §5.7 applies to them, including to every image, and the Platform may apply the measures of §5.6 and §5.7 to them before or after publication. The Seller must check imported Listings and report any inaccuracies without undue delay. The licence and warranty under §17.2 apply as if the Seller had uploaded the content itself.
6. Ranking of Listings and Paid Visibility (Article 5 P2B Regulation)
6.1 Main ranking parameters
The order in which Listings appear in search results and on the home page is determined by the following main parameters, in order of relative importance:
- Promoted status ("Featured Listing") — listings with an active paid promotion appear before non-promoted listings in search results and on the home page, for the duration of the promotion.
- The sort order chosen by the Buyer — by default "newest first" (publication date); the Buyer may choose sorting by price (ascending/descending) or by condition grade. The chosen sorting is applied within the groups under point 1.
- Relevance to the Buyer's search and filters — textual match to the query (including exact OEM-number match) and the filters applied: make, model, part category, condition grade, price, city, year.
6.2 Paid influence on ranking
Sellers may influence ranking against payment: purchasing a promotion (a "featured" package for a set number of days) is the only direct paid way for a Listing to appear higher. Certain subscription plans include monthly promotion credits, which constitutes an indirect paid influence. Prices are set out in the Commission and Fee Schedule. The commission rate and the subscription plan as such do not affect the ranking of non-promoted listings.
6.3 Advertisements
Display advertisements of advertisers appear in separate, designated slots labelled "Advertisement" and do not alter the order of the organic search results.
7. Commission and Fees
7.1 Commission on successful sales
For every completed Order, the Platform deducts a commission calculated on the item price only. Delivery costs paid by the Buyer are not included in the commission base. The applicable rates are set out in the Commission and Fee Schedule, which is an integral and binding part of these Terms; as at the date of this version, the rate is 10% for the free plan and 8% for the paid subscription plans.
7.2 Deduction at source
The commission is deducted automatically when the funds for an Order are released: the Seller's Balance is credited with the item price less the commission. The Seller does not owe a separate payment of the commission for the specific Order.
7.3 Other fees
Subscription fees, listing-promotion fees and advertising-service fees are set out in the Commission and Fee Schedule. Any change to commissions and fees is made in accordance with Section 14 (minimum 15 days' notice on a durable medium).
7.4 Refunded orders
Where an Order is cancelled or refunded (full refund to the Buyer), no commission is due for that Order, and unreleased funds relating to it do not enter the Seller's Balance.
8. Delivery and Fulfilment Deadlines
8.1 Courier and dispatch model
Deliveries are performed exclusively through the courier network of Speedy under a contract between the Platform and the courier: the Platform generates the waybill and arranges and pays for the courier service as sender/payer, and the delivery cost is charged to the Buyer at checkout (or covered under the free-delivery conditions, where applicable). The tariffs and detailed rules are in the Shipping Schedule, which is an integral part of these Terms. The Seller may not dispatch Orders outside this mechanism, except with the Platform's express written consent.
8.2 Pickup address
The Seller must maintain in its account an accurate and up-to-date pickup address with a contact person and telephone number. Without a pickup address on file, no waybill can be issued and Orders cannot be fulfilled. The courier collects the shipment from that address.
8.3 Packaging and handover
The Seller packs the part in a manner appropriate to its weight, dimensions and fragility (including draining fluids where applicable) and hands it over to the courier within the dispatch period.
8.4 Dispatch deadline
A dispatch deadline is set for every Order: the number of business days stated in the Listing (2 by default), counted from the Order date, until the end of the business day (17:00 Bulgarian time). Saturdays, Sundays and official public holidays are not counted.
8.5 One-time extension
The Seller may, once per Order, extend the dispatch deadline by 1 to 3 business days, stating a reason; the Buyer is notified automatically. No extension is possible once the shipment has been marked as ready for dispatch. The extended deadline is final.
8.6 Consequences of missing the deadline
If the Seller fails to dispatch the shipment by the expiry of the deadline (including any extension), the Order is cancelled automatically and the Buyer receives a full refund of the amount paid. Where a waybill has been issued but handover to the courier has not been confirmed, the system may apply a short technical grace period (up to 2 business days) before automatic cancellation; where an extension has been used, the deadline is firm and no grace period applies. The Buyer also has an independent right to cancel the Order: (a) within 24 hours of placing it (before dispatch); and (b) at any time after the dispatch deadline has expired, as long as the shipment is not ready for dispatch. Automatic system cancellations under this Section do not replace the Buyer's statutory rights.
8.7 Cash on delivery (COD)
For cash-on-delivery Orders, the courier collects from the Buyer on delivery the item and delivery amounts under the waybill issued by the Platform and remits the collected amount to the Platform. The funds enter the Seller's Balance under the rules of Section 9, but only after the Platform has actually received the amount from the courier.
9. Payments, Balance and Withdrawal
9.1 Buyer payment methods
Buyers may pay: (a) by card through the payment service provider Stripe — the amount is charged immediately at checkout; (b) by cash on delivery via Speedy; (c) with funds from their wallet balance on the Platform.
9.2 Holding mechanism (escrow mechanism)
Amounts paid by the Buyer are not transferred directly to the Seller. They are received and held by the Platform (through its payment service provider) and are reflected in the Seller's Balance as "pending" funds in the amount of the item price less the commission under Section 7.
9.3 Weekly release (Wednesday)
Pending funds become available for withdrawal in batches once a week: Orders delivered and/or confirmed by Saturday 23:59 Bulgarian time are released on the Wednesday of the following week; if that Wednesday is an official public holiday, the release moves to the next business day. Orders with an open dispute are excluded from release until the dispute is resolved. For cash on delivery, release additionally requires actual receipt of the amount from the courier (clause 8.7).
9.4 Withdrawal and verification (KYC)
Available funds are withdrawn to the Seller's bank account via Stripe Connect — at the Seller's request or via automatic payouts enabled by the Seller. Withdrawal requires completed identity and business verification (KYC) through Stripe. Verification is a condition for withdrawing funds only: a Seller with incomplete verification may publish listings and sell, unless its account has been definitively terminated by the payment service provider, in which case selling is suspended. Accumulated funds remain in the Balance until verification is completed.
9.5 Taxes and documents
The Seller is solely responsible for its tax and accounting obligations, including charging VAT and issuing the documents required by law to the Buyer as seller under the contract. The Platform issues invoices to the Seller for its commissions and fees.
9.6 DAC7 reporting notice
As a platform operator, the Platform is required under Council Directive (EU) 2021/514 (DAC7), as transposed into the Bulgarian Tax and Social Security Procedure Code, to collect and report annually to the Bulgarian National Revenue Agency (NRA) data on Sellers and their sales (name, address, EIK/tax number, VAT number, payment account, fees and commissions withheld, number of transactions and total consideration) where the Seller has made more than 30 sales OR sales with a total value exceeding EUR 2,000 during the calendar year. Details of the data processing are set out in the Privacy Policy.
10. Conformity of Used Goods. Consumer Complaints
10.1 Minimum one-year liability period
For used parts, the Seller is liable for any lack of conformity of the goods with the contract of sale for a period of not less than one year from delivery. A shorter period may not be agreed. The Seller must state in the Listing that the goods are used and inform the Buyer of the applicable liability period.
10.2 Burden of proof and remedies
A lack of conformity that becomes apparent within one year of delivery is presumed to have existed at the time of delivery, unless the Seller proves otherwise or this is incompatible with the nature of the goods or of the lack of conformity. The Buyer has the statutory remedies against the Seller: repair, replacement, a proportionate price reduction, or termination of the contract.
10.3 Complaints register
The Seller must keep a register of consumer complaints lodged, as required by the Consumer Protection Act, and process them within the statutory time limits. The Platform's dispute and complaints procedure (under the Buyer Terms and Conditions; orders with an open dispute are excluded from release under clause 9.3) supports, but does not replace, the consumer's statutory rights.
10.4 Returns
The Seller accepts returns where the consumer exercises the right of withdrawal and in the case of justified complaints, in accordance with the Buyer Terms and Conditions and the Shipping Schedule.
11. Differentiated Treatment
11.1
The Platform does not sell its own goods through the Platform and does not grant preferential ranking or conditions to related parties. All Sellers have access to the same paid visibility services at the same published prices. Should this change, the Platform will describe the differentiated treatment and the main considerations for it in accordance with Section 14.
12. Access to Data (Article 9 P2B Regulation)
12.1 Data available to the Seller
Through its account, the Seller has access to: (a) its own listings and their statistics; (b) its own orders, including the delivery details provided by the Buyer (name, telephone, address) — solely for the purpose of fulfilling the specific Order; (c) its messages with Buyers; (d) the ratings and reviews left about it; (e) its Balance and payout history.
12.2 Data available to the Platform
The Platform has access to all data generated through its use, including listing, order, message and payment data of all Sellers, as well as aggregated data on the use of the service. The Platform provides data to: the courier (Speedy) for the performance of deliveries, the payment service provider (Stripe) for payments and verification, and the NRA under clause 9.6, as well as to competent authorities where there is a legal basis.
12.3 Restrictions
The Seller has no access to individual data of other Sellers. The Platform may use aggregated and anonymised data to improve and develop the service. The Seller processes Buyers' personal data solely for the fulfilment of the relevant Order and for compliance with legal obligations, and acts as an independent controller for that processing. The retention of data after termination of the contract is governed by the Privacy Policy.
13. Restriction, Suspension and Termination
13.1 Graduated measures
In the event of a violation of these Terms or the law, the Platform applies proportionate measures according to the gravity and recurrence of the violation: (a) removal or restriction of the visibility of individual Listings; (b) restriction of individual account features; (c) suspension of the account; (d) termination of the contract.
13.2 Statement of reasons for suspension
In the event of restriction or suspension, the Seller receives on a durable medium a statement of reasons — the specific facts and circumstances and the applicable ground — at the latest at the time the measure takes effect.
13.3 Termination on 30 days' notice
The Platform may terminate the contract with the Seller by reasoned notice on a durable medium at least 30 days before termination. The 30-day period does not apply where: (a) the Platform is required to terminate pursuant to a legal or regulatory obligation; (b) the Platform exercises a right of termination on an imperative ground under national law; (c) the Seller has repeatedly infringed these Terms. In these cases, the reasons are communicated without delay.
13.4 Suspension under Article 30 DSA
Where KYB data is inaccurate and the Seller fails to correct it after being invited to do so, the Platform suspends the account until the deficiency is remedied (clause 3.3).
13.5 Objection
The Seller may contest any measure under this Section through the complaints channel under Section 15.
13.6 Consequences of termination
Upon termination: listings are deactivated; accepted Orders are fulfilled or cancelled with refunds to the Buyers; the available Balance is paid out to the Seller after pending disputes, complaints and liabilities are settled and subject to completed verification under clause 9.4. The Seller may terminate the contract at any time by closing its account; the obligations under Orders already concluded and under Sections 10, 16 and 17 remain in force.
14. Amendments to the Terms
14.1 Minimum 15 days' notice
The Platform notifies Sellers of any proposed amendment to these Terms (including to the Commission and Fee Schedule and the Shipping Schedule) on a durable medium at least 15 days before it takes effect. A longer period is provided where the amendments require the Seller to make significant technical or commercial adaptations.
14.2 No retroactive effect
Amendments have no retroactive effect and do not apply to Orders concluded before they take effect.
14.3 Right of termination and waiver of the notice period
Before the notice period expires, the Seller may terminate the contract free of charge. The Seller may waive the notice period only by an express written statement or by a clear affirmative action — publishing new listings during the notice period is deemed such an action and constitutes acceptance of the amended Terms.
14.4 Versions and re-acceptance
Each version of these Terms has a number and a permanent address (of the form /legal/seller_terms/v/number). Material amendments require express re-acceptance within the Platform. This version binds a Seller who has accepted it within the Platform. A Seller who has accepted an earlier version of these Terms remains bound by that earlier version until it accepts this version. Amendments made in breach of this Section are null and void pursuant to Article 3 of the P2B Regulation.
15. Complaints and Mediation
15.1 SME exemption note
As an enterprise with fewer than 50 employees and an annual turnover below EUR 10 million, the Platform is currently exempt from the obligations under Articles 11 and 12 of the P2B Regulation to operate an internal complaint-handling system and to designate mediators. If the Platform ceases to qualify for the exemption, this Section will be amended in accordance with Section 14.
15.2 Voluntary complaints channel
Notwithstanding the exemption, the Platform maintains a voluntary complaints channel for Sellers: support@partsmarkt.com. The Platform considers complaints in good faith and endeavours to respond within a reasonable period not exceeding 30 days. The Platform is willing to discuss out-of-court settlement in good faith, including mediation by mutual agreement.
16. Liability. Indemnification
16.1 Liability of the Platform
The Platform provides the intermediation service with the diligence of a prudent trader but does not guarantee uninterrupted and error-free operation. The Platform is not liable for the goods, their descriptions, conformity, safety or legality — these are obligations of the Seller (clause 2.2).
16.2 Limitation
To the extent permitted by law, the Platform's aggregate liability to the Seller for all claims in any 12-month period is limited to the total amount of the commissions and fees paid by the Seller in the 12 months preceding the event, and does not cover loss of profit or indirect damages. The limitation does not apply in cases of intent or gross negligence, or where liability cannot be limited under mandatory provisions of law.
16.3 Indemnification by the Seller
The Seller shall indemnify the Platform for all damages, penalties and costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from claims by third parties, consumers or authorities resulting from the Seller's breach of these Terms, from the non-conformity or illegality of the goods it offers, or from infringement of third-party rights.
16.4 Force majeure
Neither party is liable for non-performance caused by force majeure.
17. Intellectual Property. Confidentiality
17.1 Rights of the Platform
The software, design, databases, trademarks and content of the Platform are the property of the operator or its licensors. The Seller acquires no rights in them beyond the limited right to use the service.
17.2 Licence to the Seller's content
The Seller retains the rights to the content of its Listings (photographs, texts), including the content of Listings published by the Platform under §5.8, but grants the Platform a non-exclusive, royalty-free, territorially unlimited licence to use, reproduce, adapt and publicly display it for the purposes of providing and promoting the service, including through distribution in third-party channels (for example, social-network product catalogues and the Platform's public feeds/API). The Seller also retains the rights to the images in its profile (logo, cover/banner image, profile photo), but grants the Platform the same licence over them, limited to displaying them on the Platform and adapting them under §5.7. The Seller warrants that it holds the necessary rights to the content uploaded by it or at its request or on its instructions.
17.3 Confidentiality
The parties shall keep confidential any non-public commercial information learned in connection with the contract, except where disclosure is required by law or by an authority. The processing of personal data is governed by the Privacy Policy.
18. Governing Law. Final Provisions
18.1 Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by Bulgarian law. Disputes between the Platform and the Seller are referred to the competent Bulgarian court — venue lies with the competent court in Sofia.
18.2 Severability
The invalidity of an individual clause does not affect the validity of the remaining clauses. The invalid clause is replaced by the mandatory statutory rule or by a valid clause that comes closest to its purpose.
18.3 Entire agreement
These Terms, together with the Commission and Fee Schedule, the Shipping Schedule and the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between the Platform and the Seller regarding the intermediation service.
18.4 Language
These Terms are concluded in the Bulgarian language. The Bulgarian language version is the governing and authentic version; this English version is provided for convenience only, and in the event of any inconsistency the Bulgarian text prevails.
18.5 Storage on a durable medium
Each version of these Terms is available at a permanent address in a form that allows storage and reproduction (Bulgarian Electronic Commerce Act). The number of this version and its effective date are shown at the top of the page at its permanent address.
