GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Grand Tent Adventures

 

These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter: GTC) define the terms and conditions for the rental of a roof tent between the Lessor and the Lessee. The GTC constitute an integral part of every individual rental agreement entered into between the parties.

1. Definitions

  1. Lessor: the owner of the canopy who leases it.

  2. Renter: the natural or legal person who rents the roof tent.

  3. Roof Tent: a tent that can be mounted on the roof of a car and all its accessories (mounting hardware, ladder, accessories, etc.).

  4. Vehicle: the motor vehicle owned or used by the Renter on which the roof tent is mounted.

  5. Accessories: auxiliary equipment owned by the Lessor, which the Lessor rents out. The auxiliary equipment is listed in Appendix 1 of the rental agreement.

 

2. Subject Matter of the Agreement

The Lessor leases, and the Lessee rents, the roof tent and any accessories—if selected as an option—for a fixed term, in accordance with the terms set forth in these GTC and the lease agreement.

 

3. Personal Eligibility Requirements

Only natural persons or legal entities who have reached the age of 18 are eligible to rent a roof tent.

The Renter must possess a valid identification document and a valid driver’s license.

 

4. Rental Process

Rental is based on a prior reservation, which is confirmed electronically.

The reservation becomes final upon written confirmation between the parties via electronic means and payment of the agreed deposit.

The rental fee and security deposit may be paid in cash, via credit card authorization, or via Revolut, as specified in the Rental Agreement.

The handover of the canopy tent takes place with the preparation of a handover report. At the time of handover, the parties jointly inspect the condition of the canopy tent and its accessories and document the condition of the canopy tent and the handed-over items with photographic documentation. The photographic documentation forms an integral part of the handover report and may be used in the event of a dispute.

Return shall take place at the time and location specified in the rental agreement. Upon return, the Lessor shall conduct an inspection, based on which the Lessor shall decide whether to refund the security deposit in full or to withhold it in part or in full.

 

5. Installation and Use of the Canopy

  1. Installation of the roof tent is the Lessee’s sole responsibility; the Lessor will provide assistance with the installation.

  2. The Renter is obligated to ensure that the Vehicle is suitable for transporting and using the roof tent, with particular regard to the roof’s load-bearing capacity and the manufacturer’s specifications.

  3. When using the roof tent, the Renter is obligated to comply with all applicable laws, traffic regulations, and the manufacturer’s instructions for use.

 

6. Exclusion of Liability for Damage to the Vehicle

  1. The Renter acknowledges and expressly agrees that the Lessor assumes no liability whatsoever for any damage of any kind caused to the Vehicle during the installation, use, transport, and removal of the roof tent—including, but not limited to, damage to the bodywork, roof structure, paintwork, glass surfaces, and other components—the Lessor assumes no liability whatsoever.

  2. This exclusion of liability applies to all direct and indirect damages.

  3. The Lessee is obligated to ensure the safety of themselves and any persons traveling in the Vehicle, and further acknowledges that they have considered all risks associated with the use of the roof tent.

  4. The Lessor assumes no liability for damages resulting from improper installation, use, or transport.

  6. In the event of severe soiling, particularly mud inside the tent, unpleasant odors, soiling resulting from smoking, soiling of animal origin, or any other condition requiring extraordinary cleaning, the Lessor is entitled to charge the resulting additional cleaning, sanitizing, or disinfection costs against the security deposit.

 

9. Rent and Security Deposit

  1. The rental fee and the amount of the security deposit are specified in the lease agreement.

  2. The security deposit serves as coverage for the following:

  • damage to the canopy and its accessories,

  • missing or damaged accessories,

  • extraordinary cleaning costs,

  • in the event of late return, the pro-rated rent for the duration of the delay and any applicable penalty,

  • other costs arising from the Lessee’s breach of contract.

  1. If the damage incurred exceeds the amount of the security deposit, the Tenant is obligated to pay the difference upon the Landlord’s request.
