Change/Cancel condition at the time of booking (late Sep 2025)
I have heard that a €25 cancellation fee is being charged, even when the booking confirmation clearly shows otherwise as in your screenshot.
Anyone in this situation may file a complaint with the European Competition Authority:

You may submit the complaint either to the Competition Authority of the departure country or to the Spanish authority:
