1. Site publisher
The website plateau-libre.com (“Plateau Libre”) is published by:
Plateau Libre puts customers in touch with carriers: professionals and, in cost-sharing transport, private individuals who carry goods during their own journeys. The transport contract is concluded between the customer and the carrier, who sets their price (for a private individual, their cost contribution): Plateau Libre is not the carrier.
