Furthermore, the Website is operated by Empresa Digital Peruana S.A.C., a company of Ibibo Group Sdn. Bhd. (hereinafter referred to as “redBus”).
Please read these Terms carefully before using the Website, which is an online marketplace that uses a search engine, as they can be amended from time to time. Furthermore, for the sake of clarity, it is stressed that the Website is not engaged in providing any services by itself but is a platform which merely connects the customers with the service providers.
PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE IN ANY WAY SIGNIFIES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS. By agreeing to these Terms, you also agree to our other Website policies; including but not limited to, (i) the Privacy Policy, as amended from time to time; and (ii) the Cookie Policy.

All rights and liabilities of the User and/or the Website regarding the use of the Website and the use of the bus ticket booking facility (hereinafter referred to as "Facility/Facilities") provided by the Website, shall be restricted to the scope of this agreement.
In addition to these Terms, any other ‘terms of service’ of the application-programming interface (“API”) with which redBus may tie-up would form an integral part of this Agreement (hereinafter referred to as the “API Terms”). However, in the event of a conflict between such API Terms and these Terms, these Terms shall prevail.
Both the User and the Website are individually referred to as 'party' to the agreement and collectively referred to as 'parties'.
- Terminology:
- For the purpose of these Terms, wherever the context so requires, "You" or "User" shall mean any individual or legal entity which has agreed to become a buyer and/or user of the Facilities being offered on the Website.
- redBus allows the User to surf the Website or make purchases without registering on the Website. The term "We", "Us", "Our" shall refer to the Website and/or its affiliates.
- Our Website:
redBus wishes to stress that it is only an Online Marketplace which merely connects the customers with the business and with the service providers. In light of the foregoing, redBus would like to state as follows:
- The Website is only a marketplace, which simply lists the local operators registered with the Website, but does not provide the product/services per se. Hence, the limited role of the Website is to connect the ‘buyer’/You and the bus operator/service provider.
- Consistent with the foregoing, you agree that any liability in relation to the product being sold/ services being offered on the Website in accordance with Peruvian applicable laws shall be that of the ‘seller’/service provider and not of the Website/ redBus. In case of any deficiency in the products/services, You agree to pursue any action arising from such deficiency in the products/services against the bus operator/service provider and not against the Website/ redBus.
- You further agree and acknowledge that the Website is only a facilitator and is not, and cannot be a party to, or otherwise control, any transactions offered on the Website. Accordingly, the contract for the purchase of bus tickets on the Website will be a strictly bipartite contract between You and the bus operator/service provider listed on the Website.
- You further agree and acknowledge that all ‘discounts/coupons (if applicable)’ on the Website/prices at which the products/services are being offered by the bus operator on the Website are solely an “invitation to treat” in accordance with the Civil Code and other applicable Peruvian laws and shall not be construed as an “offer” in accordance with the applicable laws. Accordingly, in line with the foregoing, when you request to purchase any product from a ‘seller’ listed on the Website, that would be termed as a ‘valid offer’ under the applicable laws and, once this is done, it shall correspond to the ‘seller’ to either accept or reject the ‘valid offer’ in question. In this regard, note that if the ‘seller’ accepts the said ‘valid offer’, only then would it be tantamount to a ‘valid contract’ as per the applicable laws.
