Terms and conditions
This Rental Agreement for Electric Bikes and Scooters ("Agreement") contains the General Terms and Conditions for the rental of your electric bike and/or scooter and must be read in conjunction with the online reservation form used to reserve the vehicle (as defined herein). This Agreement is made and entered into between the bicycle renter ("Renter") and Location Geebee inc ("GEEBEE") and covers the rental of the electric bike and/or scooter as well as any related equipment and accessories, such as tires, lights, stand, lock, helmet, safety equipment and miscellaneous related equipment ("Bicycle").
Rental Fees:
From the time indicated on this Agreement until the Bicycle is returned, Renter agrees to pay the hourly, daily or multi-day rates indicated on Renter's online reservation. The minimum charge is 1 hour. Renter agrees to pay all applicable miscellaneous service charges and all sales, use, rental and excise taxes, including applicable tax surcharges. Renter also agrees to pay reasonable cleaning fees for the Bicycle if it is returned with excessive stains, dirt or debris attributable to Renter's use. Renter also agrees to pay a late fee of $25/hour for each additional hour or part of an hour that the Bicycle is late being returned. Location GEEBEE Inc will have sole discretion to determine when the Bicycle will be considered lost or stolen rather than late, at which time Renter's credit card will be charged the full replacement cost of the Bicycle as described in the sale section of the website.
Rental Procedure:
Renter and each participant who will use the Bicycle will be required to sign this waiver before receiving the Bicycle, in person, at the time of pick-up. Upon signing the waiver, Renter and each participant who will use the Bicycle will be required to provide photo identification confirming that they are over 14 years of age. There will be a practice and training course for using the Bicycle once the waiver is signed. An electric bike helmet, bike lock and bike lights are provided to all participants.
Payment and Security Deposit:
Payment for the bicycle rental must be made in advance online by credit card at the time of booking. An additional security deposit is required for each bicycle upon receipt. This will be a hold on the credit card used at the time of booking of $500 per bicycle, which will be released upon return of the bicycle.
Cancellation Procedure:
All cancellations made before 48 hours of the reservation will be refunded 100% or can be moved once based on inventory availability. Within 48 hours of the reservation, there is no refund. Please plan accordingly.
Credit Reserve and Payment by Credit Card Only:
Renter understands that Renter must pay in full the amount of his rental. Location GeeBee Inc accepts payment only by VISA or MASTERCARD credit card, for the total estimated amount for the bicycle rental at the rates indicated on the website and confirmed by email at the time of booking. Renter expressly agrees and authorizes LOCATION GEEBEE INC to charge Renter's credit card for any amount owed by Renter, determined in the sole and reasonable discretion of LOCATION GEEBEE INC, resulting from the rental of bicycles or scooters, including, but not limited to, rental fees, late fees and/or fees for loss or damage to the Bicycle or accessories beyond normal wear and tear. Renter understands that prepayment fees are not final and are subject to increase upon inspection of the returned Bicycle/scooter and accessories.
Rental Returns:
Renter agrees to return the Bicycle to Location Geebee Inc in the same condition as it was received, except for normal wear and tear (which does not include flat tires), on the due date and time and at the location specified by Location Geebee Inc. Renter agrees to return the Bicycle or scooter earlier if Location Geebee Inc so requires. Renter understands that there may be late or additional fees if Renter returns the Bicycle at a different time, date or location than that specified by Location Geebee Inc.
Prohibited Use of Bicycle or Scooters:
No use of trails! Renter will not use or allow the Bicycle to be used for subletting, to be used in a competition, race or contest or in any other location where such operation would be illegal or harmful to others. Renter will not use or allow the Bicycle or scooter to be used for illegal purposes. A violation of this paragraph automatically terminates the rental and makes Renter responsible to Location Geebee Inc for all penalties, fines, confiscations, liens, recovery and storage fees, and related legal fees associated with a violation of this paragraph, including, but not limited to, legal fees for attorneys and clients.
Damage or Loss of Rented Bicycle/Scooter:
The Renter shall pay Location Geebee Inc for all loss and/or damage to the Bicycle, including theft or vandalism, regardless of fault. If the Bicycle is damaged, Renter agrees to pay the reasonable repair and depreciation costs determined in the sole discretion of Location Geebee Inc. If the Bicycle is damaged beyond reasonable repair (as determined by Location Geebee Inc), Renter shall be responsible for the fair retail market value/replacement cost less any salvage value, if applicable. In addition, Renter shall also be responsible for loss of use, administrative costs, as determined by Location Geebee Inc or specified by law, as well as towing, pickup and/or storage fees. In the event of complete loss or theft of the rented equipment, Renter shall be responsible for paying the loss of use at the daily rate for each 24-hour delay by Renter in paying the total loss once assessed by Location Geebee Inc. Renter shall also be responsible for any loss suffered by Location Geebee Inc arising from Renter's rental of the Bicycle, including, but not limited to, abuse of the Bicycle or violation of any prohibited use or operation as specified in this Agreement or by law; (2) reckless driving; (3) driving under the influence, including, but not limited to, driving under the influence of alcohol, drugs or any controlled substance; (4) failure to promptly report any accident, injury or loss to the police and Location Geebee Inc; (5) failure to complete an accident report in accordance with Location Geebee Inc's procedures; (6) obtaining bicycle rental by fraud or misrepresentation; or (7) using the Bicycle for illegal purposes. Renter specifically authorizes Location Geebee Inc to recover from any responsible third party any applicable loss and/or damage, in the name and for the benefit of Renter. In the event that Location Geebee Inc obtains recovery from a third party after Renter has paid Location Geebee Inc for all or part of any loss, Location Geebee Inc shall reimburse Renter for any excess recovered above the amount of the loss, plus administrative and other collection costs incurred, including legal fees.
Policy in the Event of Personal Injury or Property Damage:
Location Geebee Inc disclaims all liability for any personal injury or property damage resulting from the use of the Bicycle by Renter and/or any other user of the Bicycle or scooter, whether or not authorized by Renter. Renter and all users of the Bicycle will be required to sign Location Geebee Inc's standard waiver and indemnity form ("Waiver and Indemnity") at the time of pickup of the Bicycle or scooter. This waiver and indemnity will include details regarding Renter's liability in the event of injury to themselves, others and/or property, including, but not limited to, damage to rented equipment, and must be carefully read by Renter before signing.
Consumption of Alcohol and Drugs:
It is expressly understood by Renter that the use of the Bicycle under the influence of alcohol or drugs, legal or illegal, is at the sole risk of Renter and the User of the Bicycle. While Location Geebee Inc may suggest tourist routes that may include restaurants, bars, and shops, Renter is solely responsible for ensuring that their use of the Bicycle/scooter is not impaired by alcohol or drugs and shall indemnify and hold harmless Location Geebee Inc from any liability for any personal injury or property damage or claims arising from the rental and use of the bicycle/scooter by Renter and the user of the bicycle/scooter.
