Terms and Conditions

Terms and Conditions

Blepo was founded on a simple principle: to see better to make better decisions.

Last updated: 2 April 2026

1. Purpose

These Terms and Conditions govern access to and use of the BLEPO platform, as well as the relationship between BLEPO, platform users, and the independent professionals forming part of the network.

BLEPO provides a digital platform for communication, client acquisition, organisation of house inspection requests, and methodological standardisation of reports. BLEPO itself does not provide any technical service.

2. Nature of the Platform

BLEPO operates exclusively as a:

  • Technological platform
  • Communication channel
  • Demand organiser
  • Methodological and reporting standardisation framework

BLEPO itself does not carry out inspections, provide technical services, or engage in real estate agency activities, and therefore assumes no technical responsibility for any reports issued.

3. BLEPO Network Professionals

Inspection services made available through the platform are performed by independent professionals, duly authorised to carry out their activity, acting in their own name and under their sole and exclusive technical, legal, and professional responsibility.

The inclusion of professionals in BLEPO network:

  • Does not constitute an employment relationship
  • Does not imply exclusivity
  • Does not transfer any technical responsibility to BLEPO

BLEPO reserves the right to accept, refuse, suspend, or remove professionals from blepo network where it considers that technical, ethical, or quality standards are not met.

4. Reports and Diagnostics

Reports made available:

  • Are prepared based on information collected at the time of inspection

  • Reflect the technical assessment of the responsible professional

  • Do not constitute absolute guarantees regarding the present or future condition of the house.

  • Each report is the sole responsibility of the professional who prepares and signs it. BLEPO shall not be held liable for its content, conclusions, or any omissions.

5. Limitation of Liability

BLEPO shall not be liable for:

  • Decisions taken based on reports
  • Financial losses, direct or indirect damages
  • Costs relating to repairs, works, or future interventions
  • Legal or planning non-compliances not identified

Use of the information provided is entirely at the user’s own risk.

8. Data Protection

Personal data is processed in accordance with applicable data protection legislation, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Technical information collected is used solely for the execution of the requested service and for the improvement of the platform.

9. Amendments

BLEPO reserves the right to amend these Terms and Conditions at any time. Any changes will be duly published on the platform and website.

Continued use of the platform constitutes acceptance of the updated versions.

10. Pricing, Payments and Invoicing

The prices displayed on the BLEPO website correspond to the diagnostic service requested, under the terms indicated.

Unless otherwise stated, payment shall be made as follows:

  • 50% of the total amount upon confirmation of the house inspection, as a condition for scheduling and performing the service;
  • 50% of the total amount upon the diagnostic report being made available in the client’s secure area.

A report is deemed made available when it becomes accessible to the user on the platform, regardless of whether it is viewed or downloaded.

Failure to pay the second instalment:

Does not invalidate the service already performed

May result in suspension of access to the report

Does not entitle the user to a refund of the first payment

BLEPO acts as the entity managing the payment process, without thereby providing technical services or assuming responsibility for the content of reports.

  • No refunds shall be issued where:
  • The service has been performed
