The Customer declares that he/she is at least 18 years of age and has the capacity to contract on the Internet. The Supplier reserves the right to refuse a booking in the event of serious or previous default on the part of the Customer or, in any case, disputes with the same.
Every item offered, barring errors, corresponds exactly to that available at the Rental Centre, that the Centre itself has confirmed is available for rental.
The rental price, hereinafter referred to as 'Price', of the booking is only as stated on the Website at the time of booking and is determined in line with various parameters: category of item booked by the Customer; selected rental period; quantity of items booked; special offers during the period; additional services. Subject to the above parameters, the Customer understands that the Rental Rates, Discounts and Reductions shown on this Website apply to every Affiliate Rental Centre. The Prices shown include any administration costs and taxes, unless otherwise specified. Prices, and discount and reduction conditions are subject to change, without prejudice that the invoice price is determined based on the terms and conditions in force at the time of booking.
To make a Booking on the Website, the Customer selects the Affiliate store from which they intend to rent the item, then chooses the category or the piece of equipment they wish to book. After selecting the item the Customer will be required to confirm their booking. The Customer must specify the surname and the name of the person who is going to use the booked item, and any other data necessary to ensure the equipment is properly prepared.
The Customer must pay the Supplier, for the service offered (Article 4 of these GSCs), the total amount shown in the shopping cart. Any balance of the Rental Price, as per the booking, should be paid by the Customer directly to the Affiliate Rental Centre according to the booking terms.
The booking only becomes firm subsequent to payment, which can only be made online by credit card or other methods provided by the system. Payment will only be considered firm once the Supplier has received the Payment Card confirmation. Should the payment not go through successfully, the Supplier reserves the right to cancel the booking. In this case, the Customer will be informed by e-mail. Upon successful receipt of the payment, a booking confirmation e-mail will be sent by the Supplier to the Customer, containing the booking invoice and the rental voucher with all the information relating to the booking. At the same time, the Affiliate Rental Centre to which the booking relates, will be automatically informed of the booking and will set aside the relevant items ready for collection.
Prior booking is essential both for the Customer and Affiliate Rental Centre. It comes into force only upon payment of the amount due as stated in the paragraphs above in these GSCs, which can then be produced by the Customer by displaying the voucher containing the confirmation of payment and the booking details. To finalise the booking, the Affiliate Rental Centre undertakes to rent out the booked item in accordance with the procedures established both in the booking and in these GSCs, while the Customer undertakes to receive the booked item in the same manner.
A booking can be changed in terms of category and/or the size of the booked item (see point 8-1) or in terms of numbers of items (see point 8-2).
8-1: Item type and size: all changes to category and/or size of a booked item are the sole responsibility of the Affiliate Rental Centre to which the Customer's booking is directed. For all changes of this nature, Customers should contact the Rental Centre directly who will handle the change requested. The Rental Centre will accept the Customer's change request as long as the required product is available in the Centre. Acceptance of such a change by the Rental Centre concerned will have no effect on what was previously paid pursuant to clause 5 of these GSCs. The effect on the Rental Price of the acceptance of such an amendment will be taken into account at the time of the Rental, subject to the conditions set forth in clause 5 of these GSCs.
8-2: On the Internet, an item cannot be added to a booking once it has been made, so should a Customer wish to book an additional item, they need to make another booking for that item, again through the Website.
