LIABILITY
The participation in the course, the arrival, the use of the services mentioned on the website and the stay are at the participant’s own responsibility. The liability of Davinga Nautico S.L. does not extend to dangers that are inevitably associated with the sport of surfing and are consciously accepted by the participant, as well as damages that occur to the participant during surfing due to the fault of other course participants or third parties. A liability insurance on the part of Davinga Nautico S.L. exists, which however only comes into force for accident services of the shuttle routes, but not for valuable articles which the participant takes with him to the beach. The organizer is not responsible for any loss or damage of the participants’ property. The equipment must be treated properly. In case of grossly negligent damage or loss, the participant is liable for the damage caused. Davinga Nautico S.L. is not responsible for weather conditions. If the course is not feasible due to weather conditions, the amount will not be refunded.
SUBSTITUTE PARTICIPATION / REBOOKING
Until the start of the trip, the participant can request that a third party takes his place in the rights and obligations under the travel contract. In this case, an amount of 10 euros per rebooking to a third party is to be paid by the participant for the change in the travel documents. The organizer can object to the entry of the third party if it does not meet the special travel requirements or its participation is contrary to legal regulations. If a third party enters the contract, he and the original participant are liable to the organizer as joint and several debtors for the travel price and the additional costs incurred by the entry of the third party.
CANCELLATION AND WITHDRAWAL BY THE ORGANIZER
Davinga Nautico S.L. can cancel or terminate the travel contract without notice before or after the start of the trip, if the participant persistently disturbs the execution of the trip despite a warning from the organizer or if he behaves in such a way contrary to the contract that the immediate cancellation of the contract is justified. If the organizer cancels the contract, the refund minus the office costs incurred will be paid to the customer. However, further claims cannot be asserted.
INSURANCES
Travel cancellation insurance is not included in the price. The conclusion of such an insurance is advisable. In addition, the conclusion of a foreign health insurance is recommended.
CHANGES TO THE COURSE OF THE EVENT
Changes in the course of the event cannot be ruled out. Especially in case of weather-related dangers, the course program can be changed and an alternative program can be offered. A money refund of the course price is excluded.
WARRANTY
The participant agrees that Davinga Nautico S.L. will provide him with a service free of defects or improve the defective service within a reasonable period of time instead of his claim for cancellation or price reduction. Remedy can take place in such a way that the defect is repaired or a substitute service of equal or higher value, which also meets with the express approval of the participant, is provided. The notice of defects must be made on site at Davinga Nautico S.L.. The organizer can refuse the remedy if it requires a disproportionate effort. The participant is obligated to cooperate within the framework of the legal provisions to avoid or minimize possible damages in the event of service disruptions. In particular, the participant is obliged to inform the organizer of his complaint immediately.
EXCLUSION OF CLAIMS / STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS
Claims due to defective services, subsequent impossibilities and due to violation of ancillary obligations, must be asserted by the participant against the organizer within one month after the contractually stipulated end of the trip. After expiration of the deadline, claims can only be asserted if the participant was unable to meet the stated deadline through no fault of his own. In this case, the participant’s claims become statute-barred one year after the contractually intended end of the trip.
SEVERABILITY CLAUSE
Should individual provisions of this contract be invalid or unenforceable or become invalid or unenforceable after conclusion of the contract, this shall not affect the validity of the remainder of the contract. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by a valid and enforceable provision whose effects most closely approximate the economic objective pursued by the contracting parties with the invalid or unenforceable provision. The above provisions shall apply mutatis mutandis in the event that the contract proves to be incomplete.
