The deposit is charged to Client's card on file at the time of signing. The remaining balance will be automatically charged to the same card on file immediately following the event. By signing this Agreement, Client expressly authorizes Company to charge the card on file for: (i) the deposit at signing; (ii) the remaining balance after the event; and (iii) any applicable overtime, damage, media opt-out, or adjustment charges as described in this Agreement. Client will receive an itemized receipt via email following any post-event charge.
Client waives the right to initiate a chargeback for any charge made in accordance with this Agreement.
CANCELLATION POLICY
Cancellations made 14 or more days before the event date will receive a full refund of the deposit. Cancellations made 7–13 days before the event will receive a 50% refund of the deposit. No refund is issued for cancellations within 7 days of the event. All cancellations must be submitted in writing to {{companyEmail}}.
If Company is unable to fulfill the booking due to circumstances within its control, Client will receive a full refund of all amounts paid.
DELIVERY AND ACCEPTANCE
Company will make commercially reasonable efforts to arrive at the Venue within 30 minutes of the agreed Venue Arrival time. Minor delays due to traffic or logistics do not constitute a breach of this Agreement.
Client's acceptance of delivery constitutes acknowledgment that the rickshaw appears operational and fit for its intended purpose, unless Client provides written notice of a defect to Company within 30 minutes of delivery.
OPERATION
The rickshaw shall be operated solely by Company's designated driver at all times during the Rental Period. Client shall not permit any third party to operate the rickshaw under any circumstances.
OVERTIME
A complimentary grace period of 15 minutes before and after the booked venue window is provided at no charge. If the event extends beyond the booked departure time, overtime will be charged at $150 (billed in 30-minute increments) and automatically applied to the card on file after the event.
DECORATION ADD-ONS
Any decoration add-ons selected by Client are reflected in the total quoted amount above and may not be changed after signing without written agreement from Company, subject to availability.
DAMAGE AND LIABILITY
Client assumes full financial responsibility for any damage to the rickshaw caused by Client, their guests, vendors, or any third party present at Client's invitation during the Rental Period, beyond normal wear and tear. Damage costs will be charged to the card on file within 14 days of Company's written damage assessment. Client has 5 business days from receipt of the written assessment to dispute the assessment in writing to {{companyEmail}}.
Company's total liability to Client under this Agreement shall not exceed the total rental fee paid by Client. Company shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.
Client agrees to hold Company harmless from any injuries sustained by any third party — including Client's guests, vendors, or invitees — during the Rental Period, except where directly caused by Company's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
WEATHER POLICY
The rickshaw operates in light rain. In cases of severe weather (lightning, sustained high winds, flooding, or conditions deemed unsafe by Company at its sole discretion), Company reserves the right to reschedule the booking to a mutually agreed date at no penalty to either Party. If no mutually agreeable reschedule date is found within 60 days, Client will receive a full refund of the deposit.
PHOTO, VIDEO, AND MEDIA CONSENT
Organic and Editorial Use: Client grants Company permission to use photos and videos taken during or in connection with the event for organic marketing purposes, including social media posts, website content, editorial coverage, and promotional materials, unless Client opts out in writing to {{companyEmail}} at least 48 hours prior to the event at no charge.
Late Opt-Out Fee: If Client requests to opt out of organic media use less than 48 hours before the event or on the day of the event, a media opt-out fee of {{mediaOptOutFee}} will be charged to the card on file to compensate Company for lost content value and any content creation costs already incurred. This fee is non-refundable.
Paid Advertising: By signing this Agreement, Client also grants Company explicit written consent — as required under Texas law, including the Texas Right of Publicity Act (Tex. Prop. Code § 26.001 et seq.) — to use Client's name, likeness, image, and event footage in paid advertising campaigns, including but not limited to paid social media advertising, digital display advertising, sponsored content, and promotional materials. Client may revoke this consent for future paid advertising use at any time by written notice to {{companyEmail}}, but such revocation shall not apply to campaigns already created, approved, or in active distribution at the time of revocation.
CONFIDENTIALITY
Each Party agrees to keep confidential all non-public information disclosed by the other Party in connection with this Agreement, including but not limited to pricing, operational methods, vendor relationships, and business practices ("Confidential Information"). Neither Party shall disclose Confidential Information to any third party without the other Party's prior written consent, except as required by law. This obligation survives termination of this Agreement for two (2) years. For clarity, Client's acknowledgment of this booking does not obligate Client to keep the existence of the booking confidential — only the non-public business information of Company disclosed in connection with performance of this Agreement.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
The Parties agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute through good-faith negotiation. If unresolved within 30 days, the Parties agree to non-binding mediation before initiating litigation. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Texas. Any legal action shall be brought exclusively in Dallas County, Texas.
ENTIRE AGREEMENT
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes all prior negotiations, representations, and agreements. This Agreement may only be amended by written instrument signed by both Parties.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT
By signing below, Client confirms they have read, understood, and agreed to all terms of this Agreement, including the express card authorization, media consent, and confidentiality provisions above.
