Terms of use
1. Who we are and what these terms cover
drivora.cz is operated by Drivora s.r.o., IČO 23960001, registered at Českobrodská 942, 198 00 Praha 9 - Hostavice, entered in the commercial register kept by the Municipal Court in Prague under file number C 435919. These terms describe the use of the site and the driver portal, not the terms of any particular cooperation.
The terms of each cooperation — rates, deposit, notice periods — are set out in a separate contract that you sign before your first load. Where these terms and your contract disagree, the contract prevails.
2. What we provide
We provide the infrastructure for working as an independent carrier: a tractor on rent, the licence and the company, finding and agreeing loads, preparing contracts and invoices, cost accounting and the calculation of payouts.
We are not an employer, a recruitment agency, a leasing company, a bank, an insurance broker or a tax adviser. The information on this site is for guidance only and is not tax or legal advice.
3. The driver’s status
The driver works as a self-employed person (OSVČ) on the basis of a valid živnostenské oprávnění and carries all the obligations that go with it, including registration with the social and health insurance funds and the payment of tax and advances.
No employment relationship arises between the parties. The driver decides how to organise his own working time within the agreed delivery deadlines and the mandatory driving and rest rules.
4. Tractor rental and the deposit
The tractor is rented under a separate contract. The rental rate includes vehicle insurance, scheduled servicing and tyres. Fuel, road charges, fines and consumables are paid by the driver.
The deposit is paid before the truck is handed over and is returned when it comes back, less any documented damage beyond normal wear and tear. The return period is 30 days from the truck being returned and all open loads being closed.
5. Settlements and payouts
A settlement is drawn up once a month. Rent, the costs allocated to the driver and, where applicable, the replenishment of the deposit and a negative carry-over from the previous period are deducted from the freight.
Settlements are made in euro. Costs in other currencies are converted at the ČNB rate for the transaction date; if no rate exists for that date, the last preceding available rate applies. The amount payable can never be negative — the difference carries over to the next period.
6. Liability and fines
Fines for offences committed by the driver, including breaches of the driving and rest rules, speed limits and transport regulations, are borne by the driver.
Damage to cargo and to third parties is covered by carrier’s liability insurance within its terms. The excess and any amount above the cover are allocated in accordance with the contract.
7. Ending the cooperation
Either party may end the cooperation with the notice set out in the contract. Open loads must be completed, the tractor returned and the accounts between the parties closed.
Once all obligations are closed, a final settlement is drawn up covering the return of the deposit and the resolution of any carry-overs.
8. Changes to these terms
We may change these terms. Material changes are published on this page with a new effective date and, for active drivers, are sent to the driver portal at least 30 days in advance.
Continuing to use the site after the changes take effect means you accept them.
