Art.1 – Object of the contract
1.1 These General Terms of Sale refer to the offer, presentation, and acceptance of orders on the Site, as well as the provision and/or supply of Products as specified below.
Art. 2 – Pre-contractual information
The Customer declares to have read and understood, before the purchase, all the information contained in the Product data sheet, including the price and payment method.
The Customer acknowledges and accepts that the purchase of Products published and distributed by Giunti Nesplora S.L. is subject to specific rules which, in accordance with professional ethics, qualifications, and the enhancement of competence profiles, allow differentiated access based on titles, professions, and skills. According to the rules established by the American Psychological Association (APA), American Counseling Association (ACA), International Personnel Management Association (IPMA), and the American Educational Research Association (AREA), adopted by the Council of Official Colleges of Psychologists of Spain and defined in 1985 by the Standards for Educational and Psychological Tests, tests are classified into three levels based on specific academic training and qualifications.
For a detailed classification and user conditions, the document proceeds with guidelines on professional requirements and the administration of products.
The Customer acknowledges that access to certain products is governed by the following classifications:
- Users with training and experience in the specific area of application.
- Users with knowledge of test theory and statistical methods, guaranteed by the appropriate academic qualifications.
- Holders of higher degrees in Psychology, Psychiatry, or Psychopedagogy, with professional experience in clinical diagnosis.
If the Customer is not involved in these activities but is interested in acquiring the Products, they may contact Giunti Nesplora S.L. at info@nesplora.com to explain their specific situation.
The purchase and contracting of the Products by the Customer grants a license to use the Product on a single Virtual Reality terminal, unless corporate Enterprise licenses are purchased.
Accordingly, the Customer assumes responsibility for a reasoned purchase and appropriate use of the Products. The Customer, in particular, agrees to:
- Carefully assess which available Products best suit their purposes;
- Ensure they have the professional qualifications to purchase the Products, as specified below;
- Follow the administration and interpretation instructions provided;
- Interpret the results of the Products considering how much the subjects taking the test differ from the normative reference group (in terms of gender, age, sociocultural background, ethnicity, etc.);
- Never violate copyright laws by photocopying, recording, or reproducing the purchased Products by any other means;
- Keep the purchased Products and materials in a secure location to prevent their use by unqualified or unauthorized persons;
- Provide the person taking the test with all information about how their results will be used and if, and how, they can access them;
- Take the necessary precautions to ensure that test results are handled with full respect for the subject’s psychological protection and confidentiality;
- Ensure that any implications inherent in the test results are clearly communicated and understood by the recipient;
- Take action in the event of improper test administration or copyright violations (e.g., reporting to the relevant professional, scientific body, publisher, or judicial authority).

For each Product in the online catalog on the Site, a C qualification is required.
Orders from organizations and companies are only processed if one or more of their employees or external collaborators meet the access level requirements for the ordered Products.
Art. 4 – Conclusion of the contract
The contract will take effect on the same day it is finalized, as specified in section 4.2, and will have a duration based on the pricing plan chosen by the Customer.
Once the initial period ends, the contract will automatically and tacitly renew for successive periods equivalent to the initial contracted period unless either Party expresses a desire not to renew by providing notice at least fifteen days before the expiration of the initial term or any of its extensions. The renewal of the contract does not guarantee the maintenance of the price, which may be reviewed in case of renewal.
The contract with the Customer is deemed completed once the Products are acquired via e-commerce after the Customer provides the requested information, including payment data, and accepts these General Terms. Giunti Nesplora S.L. will confirm the Customer’s payment and acceptance of the order.
By accepting these General Terms of Sale, the Customer declares they understand and acknowledge the characteristics of the purchased Products (e.g., the psychometric nature of the tests) and that these Products meet their needs. Consequently, the Customer agrees to indemnify and hold Giunti Nesplora S.L. harmless from any claims, requests, proceedings, compensation, penalties, costs, or expenses advanced by any party related to them and the final recipient of the purchased Products.

If the new price is not accepted, the Customer must notify Giunti Nesplora S.L. in writing. If the Customer does not express their intention to terminate the contract, the new price will be deemed accepted.
Additional services not foreseen in the online order framework, special situations due to specific Customer requests, and any additional contracted services will be subject to separate estimation, which will not be executed without prior agreement between the parties.
The Customer expressly agrees to pay a reactivation fee of fifty euros (€50.00) in the case of exceeding three consecutive months without an active license.
The price of the Giunti Nesplora S.L. Product will be as indicated on the Site. The prices displayed on the Site include all taxes or charges that may apply to the purchase.
Giunti Nesplora S.L. does not guarantee that a Product price or promotion offered on the Site will be available or respected by any distributor of the Products.

All purchases can be made using Visa®, Mastercard®, American Express® credit cards, 4B, Maestro, Visa Electron debit cards, PayPal, or bank transfer.
The payment method is chosen during the purchase process on the appropriate screen. Payment is secure through the Virtual POS of the corresponding bank. Credit card payments from other countries that cannot be verified by the payment gateway provider are excluded.
Card data is managed directly by the bank entity, ensuring the Customer the appropriate and confidential management of their information.
At no time does Giunti Nesplora S.L. have access to the Customer’s card number. Express payment allows transactions to be completed in a few steps and in a simple manner. It allows the use of securely and confidentially stored shipping and billing information from PayPal for payments, so the Customer does not have to re-enter it on the website.
If the Customer fails to meet their payment obligations, either in part or in full, Giunti Nesplora S.L. reserves the right not to provide the purchased Products and may suspend access to the information, as well as terminate the contract. Costs incurred due to non-payment will be borne by the Customer, with Giunti Nesplora S.L. reserving the right to claim the owed amount and related costs even if partial payment has been made, constituting the Customer in default.
Notwithstanding the termination of the contractual relationship established in this contract, Giunti Nesplora S.L. may withdraw or suspend at any time, without prior notice, the provision of Products to the Customer if it believes that the Customer is violating any of the obligations assumed under these General Terms of Sale. Giunti Nesplora S.L. may request compensation for any damages caused due to this violation, retaining the amount paid by the Customer for the entire annual period as a mutually agreed penalty clause.
The Customer agrees to verify that the Products meet their professional needs before using them. The Customer is solely responsible for determining that the Products are operationally ready for use in their professional activity before use.
The Customer agrees to ensure that the operating system, compiler, and any other software used with the Products is owned by the Customer or that its use, in conjunction with the Product, has been legally authorized to the Customer.
Giunti Nesplora S.L.’s sole obligation will be to remedy any non-conformity of the Product, and the Nesplora Platform developed or owned by Giunti Nesplora S.L. or the Giunti Psychometrics S.r.l. Group. This constitutes the only warranty provided by Giunti Nesplora S.L. regarding the Product.
By mutual agreement, the parties establish that Giunti Nesplora S.L.’s obligations and responsibilities in these General Terms of Sale do not extend to implicit warranties nor those regarding the merchantability or fitness of the Product for a particular purpose, regardless of whether such purpose has been communicated to Giunti Nesplora S.L. The Products are delivered as-is; the Customer acknowledges that they have not been made to meet the Customer’s specific requirements, that they cannot be tested or verified in advance in all possible operational environments, and that it is impossible to run the Products without errors in all circumstances.
The Customer is expressly prohibited from attempting to correct errors or modify the Product in any way. They are also prohibited from reverse engineering, decompiling, or disassembling all or part of the Product and the Nesplora Platform.

The function of the Product consists of Virtual Reality tools for evaluating cognitive processes with emerging technologies, allowing researchers and clinics to obtain more precise, objective reports in less time.
Therefore, Giunti Nesplora S.L. is not liable for any alleged harm or damage caused by using the Product and/or the Nesplora Platform. Giunti Nesplora S.L. does not assume responsibility for the patients’ health using the Products; this aspect must be supervised as the Product is used by the healthcare professional in the scope and with the purpose for which it was designed.
The Customer assumes any damages, harm, and/or costs arising from incompatibilities between the Product or its updates and third-party software installed on their computer/equipment/device, as well as other issues (e.g., security, system reliability) that may arise from the interaction between the two software and/or programs or coincidental code chains.
Giunti Nesplora S.L. shall not be responsible in any case for damages exceeding the fee paid by the Customer for the Product, even if the Customer had informed Giunti Nesplora S.L. of the possibility of such damages.
Giunti Nesplora S.L. may, at its sole discretion, offer the Customer Product updates through the private area of the Customer provided by Giunti Nesplora S.L. Updates will be automatic and at no additional cost to the Customer.

The Customer is expressly prohibited from extending the rights granted with this sublicense to third parties, marketing or distributing the Products and materials uploaded to the Platform, or developing educational materials, even for free. Consequently, the Customer and their designated personnel may not assign, rent, lease, sublicense, transfer, directly or indirectly, or allow third parties to use or grant the use of the Platform, even free of charge. Violation of this provision will result in the termination of the contract between Giunti Nesplora S.L., in accordance with applicable law, without prejudice to greater damages.
By accepting these General Terms of Sale, the Customer declares that they are aware of the functionalities of the Platform and that they meet their needs and requirements. By using the Platform, the Customer agrees to follow the usage instructions defined by Giunti Nesplora S.L. The Customer will access the Platform through a reserved area using credentials and a company account assigned to the Customer, which they will retain and use under their sole responsibility. In particular, the Customer agrees to maintain strict confidentiality regarding the access codes provided (referred to as “username” and “password”), being solely responsible for any damages caused by the use of the username and password by unauthorized third parties.

Art. 12 – Data security and confidentiality
The Customer guarantees that they legitimately hold all the information entered on the website www.nesplora.com for the purpose of purchasing the corresponding Product and ensures that it does not infringe, directly or indirectly, the rights of third parties. Therefore, the Customer agrees not to enter any data they do not have the free right to use.
Additionally, the Customer is prohibited from entering false and/or fictitious data during the registration procedure and in subsequent communications related to the execution of the contract.
In this regard, the Customer exempts Giunti Nesplora S.L. from:
- Any responsibility derived from the issuance of incorrect tax data or documents, with the Customer being solely responsible for the correct introduction of such information;
- Any obligation and/or responsibility for the direct or indirect verification and control of such data.
If it is determined, either by Giunti Nesplora S.L. or by notification from third parties, that the data provided is false, Giunti Nesplora S.L. reserves the right to prevent or suspend the Customer’s registration.
Regarding all Products available for purchase on the website www.nesplora.com, the Customer agrees not to transfer the acquired Product to third parties and not to purchase the Products on behalf of individuals who do not meet the specific requirements. Any behavior contrary to good faith by the Customer, as well as violations of the obligations and prohibitions mentioned (which should not be considered exhaustive), will not be tolerated by Giunti Nesplora S.L., as they could compromise its reputation, honor, and decorum, resulting in the exclusive liability of the Customer and the right to terminate any service provision and potentially take legal action, as well as claim compensation for damages.
Therefore, the Customer releases Giunti Nesplora S.L. from any liability in case of claims, legal actions, governmental or administrative actions, losses, or damages resulting from the misuse of the Products offered by Giunti Nesplora S.L., either in bad faith and/or unlawfully by the Customer, related third parties, or third parties in general.
Except in cases of willful misconduct or gross negligence, the Customer expressly releases Giunti Nesplora S.L. from any liability for direct or indirect damages:
- That the Customer or third parties may suffer in relation to or as a result of the use of the Product or the interruption of its functionality;
- Incurred by the Customer or third parties as a result of the telecommunications network operator failing to provide connectivity, or as a result of the Customer using a (non-high-speed) connectivity that is technically incompatible with the service if the above is due to the Customer not meeting the system’s minimum requirements;
- Caused by unauthorized access by third parties to the services subscribed to by the Customer, due to the Customer’s failure to safeguard the username and password assigned to them or the absence of other security measures the Customer is required to adopt.
In no event shall Giunti Nesplora S.L. be liable for:
- Malfunctions of the service caused by breakdowns, overloads, interruptions of telephone lines, electrical lines, or internet connections that may compromise the purchase or use of the Product;
