As part of the functionality of the Site, Application and Services, you may link your algrano Account with Third-Party Accounts, by either: (i) providing your Third-Party Account login information to algrano through the Site, Services or Application; or (ii) allowing algrano to access your Third-Party Account, as permitted under the applicable terms and conditions that govern your use of each Third-Party Account. You represent that you are entitled to disclose your Third-Party Account login information to algrano and/or grant algrano access to your Third-Party Account (including, but not limited to, for use for the purposes described herein), without breach by you of any of the terms and conditions that govern your use of the applicable Third-Party Account and without obligating algrano to pay any fees or making algrano subject to any usage limitations imposed by such third-party service providers.

You may not have more than one (1) active algrano Account. You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information during the registration process and to update such information to keep it accurate, current and complete. algrano reserves the right to suspend or terminate your algrano Account and your access to the Site, Application and Services if you create more than one (1) algrano Account or if any information provided during the registration process or thereafter proves to be inaccurate, not current or incomplete. You are solely responsible for safeguarding your password. You agree that you will not disclose your password to any third party and that you will take sole responsibility for any activities or actions under your algrano Account, whether or not you have authorized such activities or actions. You will immediately notify algrano of any unauthorized use of your algrano Account.
As a Member, you may be eligible to create Listings, if you have the right to sell Coffees and the ability to export Coffees in the country the Coffees were produced. To create a Listing, you will be asked a variety of questions about the Coffees to be listed, including, but not limited to, the location, quality, quantity, features, availability and pricing in US Dollars and related rules and financial terms. In order to be featured in Listings via the Site, Application and Services, your Listing has to attain at least a Full Container Load. Moreover, all Coffee lots contained in a Listing must have been cupped by a specialist (including but not limited to a Specialty Coffee Association of America ("SCAA") accredited Q-Grader). This person has to be identified by name in the Listing. Only Coffees called specialty (above 80 points following the official SCAA cupping protocol that can be found here: http://www.scaa.org/?page=resources&d=cupping-protocols) can be part of a Listing. Moreover, your Listings must include a transparent price breakdown including the services of the Seller, the Exporter and the price paid to the Producer. In case one business entity represents all three roles, the price breakdown should reflect the cost structure. You understand and agree to take at the same day the coffee was cupped by the cupper a control sample of at least 300 grams and to store it for at least one year. You agree to provide this sample to algrano upon its first request.
Listings will be made publicly available via the Site, Application and Services. Other Members will be able to buy your Coffees via the Site, Application and Services based upon the information provided in your Listing. You understand and agree to not sell the listed Coffees to other Buyers outside algrano during the time of the Listings, to send samples to interested Buyers using traceable airfreight services and that once a Buyer requests Coffees, you may not request the Buyer to pay a higher price than fixed in the Listings. You understand and agree that you are solely responsible for the quality of the coffee to match the quality in the Listings until Free on Board ("FOB") in the agreed port of destination.
You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for any and all Listings you post. Accordingly, you represent and warrant that any Listing you post (i) will not breach any agreements you have entered into with any third parties, such as Producers of Coffees, and (ii) will (a) be in compliance with all applicable tax requirements, and rules and regulations that may apply to any Coffees included in a Listing you post (including having all required permits, licenses and registrations), and (b) not conflict with the rights of any third parties. Please note that algrano assumes no responsibility for a Seller’s compliance with any agreements with or duties to third parties, applicable laws, rules and regulations. algrano reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, to remove or disable access to any Listing for any reason, including Listings that algrano, in its sole discretion, considers to be objectionable for any reason, in violation of these Terms, or otherwise harmful to the Site, Application or Services.
If you are a Seller, you understand and agree that algrano does not act as an insurer or as your contracting agent. If a Buyer requests a Coffee and buys your Coffee, any agreement you enter into with such Buyer over the algrano platform is between you and the Buyer on FOB terms following the latest version of the European Contract of Coffee ("ECC") and algrano is not a party thereto. However, algrano can act as a Commission Agent for the Buyer and act on behalf of the Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, algrano serves as the limited authorized payment collection agent of the Seller for the purpose of accepting, on behalf of the Seller, payments from Buyers of such amounts stipulated by the Seller (including fees and/or Taxes) and additional charges that may exist (for instance the shipping costs after FOB).
The Seller agrees to inform algrano immediately in case of an event of Force Majeure affecting the existence or quality of the Listings. Moreover, the Seller understands and agrees that he has to provide on the algrano platform to the (potential) Buyers a substitute to its Listing, which has the same or higher quality as the listed Coffees affected by the event of Force Majeure, for the same price of its initial Listing.
algrano does not endorse any Member or any Listings. Members are required by these Terms to provide accurate information, and although algrano may undertake additional checks and processes designed to help verify or check the identities or backgrounds of users, algrano does not make any representations about, confirms, or endorses any Member or the Member’s purported identity or background.
Any references in the Site, Application or Services to a Member being "verified" or “connected” (or similar language) only indicate that the Member has completed a relevant verification process, and does not represent anything else. Any such description is not an endorsement, certification or guarantee by algrano about any Member, including of the Member’s identity and whether the Member is trustworthy, safe or suitable. Instead, any such description is intended to be useful information for you to evaluate when you make your own decisions about the identity and suitability of others whom you contact or interact with via the Site, Application and Services. algrano therefore recommends that you always exercise due diligence and care when deciding with whom you enter into a business relationship.
By using the Site, Application or Services, you agree that any legal remedy or liability that you seek to obtain for actions or omissions of other Members or other third parties will be limited to a claim against the particular Members or other third parties who caused you harm. You agree not to attempt to impose liability on or seek any legal remedy from algrano with respect to such actions or omissions.
"Farm Price" means the amount that the Seller paid to the Producer of the Coffees in the Listing. The Producer in accordance with the Seller, and not algrano, determine this price. The Seller may not include any other fees or charges in this price.
"algrano Premium" means the amount that algrano will pay directly to the Producer to further incentivize quality and direct trade.
"Exporter Fees" means the fee that the Seller can charge for exporting services (including but not limited to, milling, bagging, paperwork, inland transport).
"Service Fees" means the fee that algrano charges a Buyer for the use of its algrano online platform and to represent the Buyer as a commission agent, which is calculated as a percentage of the applicable Farm Price and the charged Exporter Fees.
"FOB Price" means collectively the Farm Price, the algrano Premium, the Exporter Fees and the Service Fees.
"Roaster Premium" means an optional premium that the Buyer can pay to the Producer and that will go directly to the Producer.
"Total Price" means the FOB Price plus the Roaster Premium, any taxes, shipping and insurance fees that arise from the transport of the Coffees from FOB to the Delivery Address.
If you are a Seller and an order is requested for your Listings via the Site, Application and Services, you understand and agree that you are bound to provide the Services offered in your Listings. As mentioned above, you agree to deliver the Coffees as described in the Listings on FOB terms following the ECC rules. algrano will (i) sign with you a contract (including but not limited to the company name of the Buyer, who has requested the coffee, or the name of its Commission Agent, the lot numbers, the quantity and quality of each lot, the average price of the container load, the shipping terms and the date of shipping), (ii) share with you a shipping declaration (including but not limited to the port of destination and the third party logistic partner at destination), and (iii) provide a bank guarantee or an upfront payment. If you are unable to execute the order request, any amounts collected by algrano for the requested order are reimbursed to the applicable Buyer’s credit card or bank account or any pre-authorization of such credit card will be released. algrano reserves the right to invoice the Seller for each not confirmed order a cancellation fee. Once you signed the contract, algrano will send you an email, text message or message via the Application confirming such order, depending on the selections you make via the Site, Application and Services. You are only released from any responsibility for the coffee after the documents have reached the Buyer or its Commission Agent.
algrano will collect the Total Price at the time of order request (i.e. when the Buyer requests an order) through a pre-payment and an invoice payable 10 days net on order, if the maximum pre-payment amount is exceeded. algrano will initiate payment of the Total Price (less algrano’s Service Fees and any other taxes or fees in respect of the shipping after FOB) to the Seller documents against cash on FOB.
If you owe or agree to pay any amount via the platform algrano to algrano (whether as a result of your orders or actions as a Buyer or otherwise), then algrano may (but is not obliged to) withhold the amount owing to algrano from any payout amounts due to you as a Seller, and use the withheld amount to set-off the amount owed by you to algrano. If algrano does so, then your obligation to pay algrano will be extinguished to the extent of the amount withheld by algrano, and algrano will cease to owe to you any obligations (including, but not limited to, any obligation to pay you) with respect to the amount withheld.
Each Seller hereby appoints algrano as the Seller’s limited payment collection agent solely for the purpose of accepting the Total Price from Buyer.
Each Seller agrees that payment made by a Buyer through algrano, shall be considered the same as a payment made directly to the Seller, and the Seller will make the Coffees available to the Buyer in the agreed-upon manner as if the Seller has received the Farm Price and Exporter Fee. Each Seller agrees that algrano may (i) permit the Buyer to cancel the order and (ii) refund (via algrano) to the Buyer the Farm Price and Exporter Fee. Each Seller understands that as algrano accepts payments from Buyers as the Seller’s limited payment collection agent and that algrano’s obligation to pay the Seller is subject to and conditional upon successful receipt of the associated payments from Buyers. algrano does not guarantee payments to Sellers for amounts that have not been successfully received by algrano from Buyers. In accepting this appointment as the limited authorized agent of the Seller, algrano assumes no liability for any acts or omissions of the Seller.
Please note that algrano does not currently charge any fees for the creation of Listings. However, you as a Seller acknowledge and agree that algrano reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to charge you for and collect fees from Sellers, Buyers and Members for the creation of Listings. Please note that algrano will provide notice of any Listing fee collection via the Site, Application and Services, prior to implementing such a Listing fee feature.
The Sellers, not algrano, are solely responsible for honoring any orders and making available any Coffees ordered through the Site, Application and Services. If you, as a Buyer, choose to enter into a transaction with a Seller for the ordering of a Coffee, you agree and understand that you will be required to enter into an agreement with the Seller and you agree to accept any terms, conditions, rules and restrictions imposed by the Seller. Specifically you agree to buy the Coffees FOB at the port of origin as defined in the Listing. You acknowledge and agree that you, and not algrano, will be responsible for performing the obligations of any such agreements, that algrano is not a party to such agreements, and that, with the exception of its payment obligations and duties as a commission agent hereunder, algrano disclaims all liability arising from or related to any such agreements. You acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding the fact that algrano is not a party to the agreement between you and the Seller, algrano acts as the Seller’s payment collection agent for the limited purpose of accepting payments from you on behalf of the Seller. Upon your payment of the Total Price to algrano, your payment obligation to the Seller for the Farm Price and Exporter Fee is extinguished, and algrano is responsible for remitting the Farm Price and Exporter Fee, in the manner described in these Terms. In the event that algrano does not remit any such amounts as described in these Terms, such Seller will have recourse only against such algrano entity.
The Total Price payable will be displayed to a Buyer before the Buyer sends an order request to a Seller. If a requested order is cancelled (i.e. not executed by the applicable Seller), any amounts collected by algrano will be refunded to such Buyer, depending on the selections the Buyer makes via the Site and Application, and any pre-authorization of such Buyer’s credit card will be released, if applicable.
Each Buyer agrees to pay algrano for the Total Price for any order requested in connection with your algrano Account if such requested orders are confirmed by the applicable Seller. In order to establish an order pending the applicable Seller’s confirmation of your requested order, you understand and agree that algrano, on behalf of the Seller, reserve the right, in its sole discretion, to (i) obtain a pre-payment via your credit card for the Total Price or (ii) charge your credit card a nominal amount, not to exceed thousands US dollar ($1000), to verify your credit card and your interest in the order. Once algrano receives confirmation of your order from the applicable Seller, algrano will collect the Total Price in accordance with these Terms and the pricing terms set forth in the applicable Listing. Please note that algrano cannot control any fees that may be charged to a Buyer by its bank related to algrano’s collection of the Total Price, and algrano disclaims all liability in this regard.
In connection with your requested order, you will be asked to provide customary billing information such as name, billing address and credit card information either to algrano or its third-party payment processor(s). Each Buyer agrees to pay algrano for any confirmed orders made in connection with your algrano Account in accordance with these Terms by one of the methods described on the Site or Application, e.g. by Stripe or Paypal, wire transfer or credit card. You hereby authorize the collection of such amounts by charging the credit card provided as part of requesting the order, either directly by algrano or indirectly, via a third-party online payment processor or by one of the payment methods described on the Site or Application. If you are directed to algrano’s third-party payment processor(s), you may be subject to terms and conditions governing use of that third party’s service and that third party’s personal information collection practices. Please review such terms and conditions and privacy policy before using the services. Once your confirmed order transaction is complete you will receive a confirmation email summarizing your confirmed order.
The Buyer understands and approves that algrano may decide, at its sole discretion, to work with third-party lenders to finance contracts, and that such collaborations may require the exchange of information about the Buyer. By accepting these terms and conditions, the Buyer consents to such information exchange and associated Data Privacy agreements as well as linked Retention of Title agreements. algrano specifically points out the Retention of Title agreement and Data privacy agreement it holds with financing partner Finmid/MIR Lux Capital.
Each Buyer hereby appoints algrano as the Commission Agent solely to facilitate the transport of the Coffee from FOB at port of destination to the delivery address mentioned during the ordering process.
Each Buyer agrees that each order made by algrano as a Commission Agent on behalf of the Buyer, shall be considered the same as an order made directly from the Buyer, and the Seller will make the Coffees available to algrano in the agreed-upon manner as if the Buyer has ordered the Coffee in its name. Each Buyer agrees that algrano may organize (i) the shipping, (ii) the transport insurance and (iii) the quality management during transport from FOB at port of origin to the delivery address mentioned during the ordering process for the ordered Coffees on behalf of the Buyer. Each Buyer understands that as algrano makes orders on behalf of the Buyer, the Buyer is solely responsible for the ordered quality, which he has approved through a pre-shipment sample. algrano does not guarantee the quality of the Coffee ordered. In accepting appointment as the Commission Agent of the Buyer, algrano assumes no liability for any acts or omissions of the Seller.
In consideration for the use of algrano’s online marketplace and platform, algrano charges the Service Fees. Where applicable, taxes (such as VAT) may also be charged.
Balances will be remitted by algrano Payments to Sellers via check, Stripe, Paypal, direct deposit, or other payment methods described on the Site or via the Application, in US Dollars. Amounts may be rounded up or down as described the "Rounding Off" section below.
If, as a Buyer, you cancel your requested order before the requested order is confirmed by a Seller, algrano will cancel any pre-authorization to your credit card and/or refund any nominal amounts charged to your credit card in connection with the requested order within a commercially reasonable time. If, as a Buyer, you wish to cancel a confirmed order made via the Site, Application and Services, prior to having paid the Total Price of your order, algrano will cancel your order, but will withhold the pre-payment. If, as a Buyer, you wish to cancel a confirmed order made via the Site, Application and Services, prior to the coffee being FOB, the pre-payment and the Service Fee will not be refunded. If such a cancellation takes place after the coffee being FOB, no refunds are possible. The Service Fee is non-refundable regardless of the cancellation policy selected by the Seller.
If a Seller cancels a confirmed order made via the Site, Services, and Application, (i) algrano will refund the Total Price for such order to the applicable Buyer within a commercially reasonable time of the cancellation and (ii) the Buyer will receive an email or other communication from algrano containing alternative Listings and other related information. If the Buyer requests an order from one of the alternative Listings and the Seller associated with such alternative Listing confirms the Buyer’s requested order, then the Buyer agrees to pay algrano the Total Price relating to the confirmed order for the Coffees in the alternative Listing, in accordance with these Terms. If a Seller cancelled a confirmed order and you, as a Buyer, have not received an email or other communication from algrano, please contact algrano.
If, as a Seller, you cancel a confirmed order, algrano may charge accrued service fees and apply other consequences to you or your Listing, including (i) publishing an automated review on your Listing indicating that a reservation was cancelled, or (iii) imposing a cancellation fee (to be withheld from your future payouts). You will be notified of the situations in which a cancellation fee applies before you decide to cancel.
In certain circumstances, algrano may decide, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary or desirable to cancel a confirmed order made via the Site, Application and Services. algrano may also determine, in its sole discretion, to refund to the Buyer part or all of the amounts charged to the Buyer. You agree that algrano will not have any liability for such cancellations or refunds.
algrano may, in its sole discretion, round up amounts that are payable from or to Buyers or Sellers to the nearest multiple of 5 cents ; for example, algrano will round up an amount of $101.480 to $101.50, and $101.41 to $101.45.
algrano will take steps to rectify any payment processing errors that algrano becomes aware of. These steps may include crediting or debiting (as appropriate) the same payment method used for the original payout to or payment by you, so that you end up receiving or paying the correct amount.
Some Sellers may pledge to donate a portion of the funds they receive from confirmed orders made via the Site, Application and Services to a particular cause or charity. algrano does not take any responsibility or liability for whether the Seller does in fact make the donation he or she pledged to make. In such cases, the Seller in question is responsible for his or her own compliance with all laws and regulations applicable to such pledges and/or fund-raising.
Tax regulations may require algrano to collect appropriate tax information from the Sellers, or to withhold taxes from payouts to Sellers, or both. You as a Seller are solely responsible for keeping the information in your tax forms current, complete and accurate. If you as a Seller fail to provide algrano with documentation that algrano determines to be sufficient to alleviate our obligation (if any) to withhold payments to you, algrano reserves the right in its sole discretion to freeze all payouts to you until resolution, to withhold such amounts as required by law, or to do both.
Each Seller understands and agree that he/she is solely responsible for determining (i) your applicable tax reporting requirements, and (ii) the taxes that should be included, and for including taxes to be collected or obligations relating to applicable taxes in Listings. You are also solely responsible for remitting to the relevant authority any taxes included or received by you. algrano cannot and does not offer tax-related advice to any Members.
algrano’s online platform facilitates orders between Buyers and Sellers only in US Dollars. Listings have a fixed price and cannot be adjusted to foreign exchange volatilities during the Listing period. The losses or gains due to foreign exchange volatilities are not hedged through financial instruments or covered by algrano. Buyers and Sellers understand and agree that they are responsible to bear risks resulting from foreign exchange volatilities.
