92As regards, in the second place, the possibility of classifying the parking contract in the main proceedings as a contract for the provision of services, for the purposes of the application of Article 7(1)(b) of Regulation No 1215/2012, it must be stated that such a classification would exclude the application of the rule of jurisdiction laid down in Article 7(1)(a) of that regulation. In view of the hierarchy which Article 7(1)(c) establishes between Article 7(1)(a) and (b), the rule of jurisdiction laid down in Article 7(1)(a) is intended to apply only in the alternative and if the rules of jurisdiction in Article 7(1)(b) do not apply (judgment of 8 March 2018, Saey Home & Garden, C‑64/17, EU:C:2018:173, paragraph 34 and the case-law cited).
