Blue Zen Trips Terms of Use:
Updated as of 2nd Jan 2024
Binding Terms of Use
The following terms of use (“Terms”) set forth the rules that govern your use of the website bluezentrips.com, and other websites, applications and booking tools operated by Blue Zen Trips, as identified below (collectively, the “Platform”). The “Platform” further includes any third-party websites, applications or booking tools in cooperation with Blue Zen Trips, which refer to these Terms or which refer to Blue Zen Trips as the ultimate provider of booking services (“Third-Party Platform”). Please read these Terms carefully. By accessing or using the Platform, you agree that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by these Terms and all terms incorporated by reference. If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to do so. Blue Zen Trips reserves the right to modify content on the Platform and these Terms periodically without prior notice. Any changes to the Terms will become effective upon posting the changes, modifications, or revisions to the Platform, along with the date on which it was most recently updated for any bookings made on or after such date.
The Platform is Solely a Venue
The Platform is a forum that enables you and other interested parties (each a “User”) to find, request and/or receive transport and related services (“Transport Services”) from third-party service providers, including but not limited to, independent drivers (collectively, “Drivers”), and offers certain supporting services, including providing you the ability to express certain preferences about the Transport Services or Drivers, payment processing and customer support. The services provided by Blue Zen Trips are referred to as the “Booking Services”.
Blue Zen Trips does not provide any Transport Services. Blue Zen Trips is not a payment services provider.
Blue Zen Trips Entities
If you are booking a trip that will take place anywhere except in the U.S., then “Blue Zen Trips” shall mean Blue Zen Trips s.r.o., Varšavská 715/36, Prague, Czechia, 120 00, which operates in and from Czechia. (further also as “Blue Zen Trips Global”).
Blue Zen Trips provides the Booking Services exclusively in and from the Czech Republic and not in or from any other jurisdiction. This applies irrespective of whether the booked Driver provides the Transport Services in or outside of the territory of the Czech Republic.
Booking of Transport Services
Users book the Transport Services through the Platform by selecting the place of departure, destination and date and time of the departure, payment method and confirming the order. If available, the User may also select for the Driver to make stops along the way and the places where those stops should be. When booking, the User must identify at least one Passenger and any kids under 12 to participate in the trip, and must provide the User’s email address and other details indicated in the booking form or otherwise requested by Blue Zen Trips. For purposes of these Terms, “Passenger” shall mean any person who will ride in the Driver’s vehicle and use the Transport Services, which may include the User. Once the User has made a booking request, Blue Zen Trips notifies Drivers that an opportunity is available and subject to availability of a Driver, Blue Zen Trips will confirm the booking (“Booking Confirmation”). Blue Zen Trips will confirm the booking by a follow-up email from Blue Zen Trips confirming that Blue Zen Trips was able to arrange a Driver (this usually applies for trips with departures soon after the confirmation, where Blue Zen Trips needs to check the availability).
If a User books Transport Services for another Passenger, the User must present these Terms to the Passenger and must ensure that the Passenger agrees to these Terms. By using the Platform on behalf of another Passenger, the User represents and warrants to Blue Zen Trips that the Passenger agrees to these Terms and that the User has sufficient authority to make the booking on behalf of the Passenger. If a User or any Passenger represented by the User does not agree to the Terms of Use, such User should not use the Platform.
Following the Booking Confirmation, the User must immediately pay the fee for the Transport Service by Blue Zen Trips deducting the payment from the debit/credit card registered at the booking, unless the User and Blue Zen Trips agree that the User shall pay using a wire-transfer. If card payment is selected and the User does not pay for the Transport Service immediately after the Booking Confirmation (for example if the payment exceeds the card’s limit), Blue Zen Trips has the right to cancel the booking on behalf of the Driver by sending an email to the User. Blue Zen Trips has the right to cancel the booking on behalf of the Driver by sending an email to the User if any agreed upon terms of payment were not honored.
Drivers provide their Transport Services to Users for fees stated in the Booking Confirmation which is based on the price stated in the price offer for the indicative booking made by the User, adjusted for any additional changes to the trip agreed to by the User. The payment is processed in the currency stated in the Booking Confirmation. Blue Zen Trips provides the Booking Services to Users for free, the User only pays to the Driver for the Transport Service. Blue Zen Trips gets a commission from Drivers for the Transport Service booked through the Platform, based on a separate agreement between the Driver and Blue Zen Trips. The Drivers are not VAT payers, unless expressly indicated otherwise (not applicable to U.S. Trips).
The Driver (or Blue Zen Trips on behalf of the Driver) shall contact the User in order to agree upon the detailed pick-up place of departure (such as the detailed address within the selected city) well in advance before the confirmed time of departure (unless the User has provided the detailed pick-up place during the booking).
Unless you registered with Blue Zen Trips as a travel agent or unless otherwise agreed by Blue Zen Trips in a separate written agreement with you, the Transport Services are made available solely for your personal, noncommercial use.
Upon the later of (i) Booking Confirmation or (ii) Blue Zen Trips informing the User about the Driver’s name, the User (whether directly or on behalf of the Passenger) acknowledges and agrees that it is entering into an agreement with the Driver for the Transport Service. Blue Zen Trips is not a party to such agreement. Blue Zen Trips only assists the Driver in communications regarding the Transport Service pursuant to a separate agreement between the Driver and Blue Zen Trips. Blue Zen Trips never acts on behalf of the User or the Passenger. The Driver does not provide any additional services unrelated to the Transport Services. Neither Blue Zen Trips nor the Driver provides travel agency services.
Blue Zen Trips IS NOT A COMMON OR MOTOR CARRIER AND DOES NOT TRANSPORT YOU OR ANY OTHER PASSENGER. GENERALLY, THE TRANSPORT SERVICES ARE ONLY OPEN TO USERS THAT HAVE COMPLETED A BOOKING TO RECEIVE TRANSPORT SERVICES AND NOT TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC. YOUR ABILITY TO REQUEST, AND IF APPLICABLE, OBTAIN TRANSPORT SERVICES FROM DRIVERS IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OF THE BOOKING SERVICES DOES NOT ESTABLISH Blue Zen Trips AS A PROVIDER OF ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE BOOKING SERVICES. DRIVERS ARE NOT ACTUAL AGENTS, APPARENT AGENTS, OSTENSIBLE AGENTS, OR EMPLOYEES OF Blue Zen Trips IN ANY WAY. ANY EFFORT, FEATURE, PROCESS, POLICY, STANDARD OR OTHER EFFORT UNDERTAKEN BY Blue Zen Trips TO FACILITATE YOUR RECEIPT OF TRANSPORT SERVICES OR IN THE INTEREST OF SAFETY OR SECURITY (WHETHER REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE REGULATIONS OR NOT) IS NOT AN INDICIA OF AN EMPLOYMENT, ACTUAL AGENCY, APPARENT AGENCY, OR OSTENSIBLE AGENCY RELATIONSHIP WITH A DRIVER.
Blue Zen Trips HAS THE RIGHT, IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, AND FOR ANY OR NO REASON, TO DEACTIVATE AND REVOKE THE ACCESS OF ANY PARTY TO THE PLATFORM.
Blue Zen Trips may at any time, for any reason, and without notice or liability: (1) modify, suspend, or terminate operation of or access to the Platform, or any portion thereof; (2) change, revise, or modify the Booking Services; (3) interrupt the operation of the Booking Services, or any portion thereof, as necessary to perform routine or non-routine maintenance, error correction, or for any other purposes; and/or (4) impose limits on certain programs, features, and services, or restrict your access to the Platform or its Booking Services, in whole or in part.
Access to Booking of the Transport Services
To book a Transport Service you may be required to submit to Blue Zen Trips certain personal information, such as your email address, and the name and phone number of at least one Passenger. By the completion of the booking, you agree that your user account will be created to allow you to manage your bookings (“Account”). You will be able to access your Account after you verify your email address, except that your Account may not be accessible if you made the booking via a Third-Party Platform. For more information regarding Blue Zen Trips’s use of your personal information, please see our Privacy Policy. You agree to maintain accurate, complete, and up-to-date information in your Account. Except as described below, you must be at least 18 years of age, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction (if different than 18), to use the Booking Services. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your Account, and you agree to maintain the security and secrecy of your Account credentials at all times.
The Booking Services are not available for use by persons under the age of 18. You may not authorize third-parties to use your Account, and you may not allow persons under the age of 18 to use the Transport Services unless they are accompanied by you or an adult.
Cancellations
Except as otherwise indicated before completing a booking, the User has the right to cancel a Transport Service and receive a full refund if the cancellation is made at least 48 hours before the confirmed time of departure. Some bookings may have different deadlines for cancellations with the right to receive a refund, or may not be refundable at all. The cancellation can be made in the User’s Account or by email sent to Blue Zen Trips. Other ways of cancellation, in particular cancellation by phone is not acceptable. If applicable, the Driver will refund the User the full paid price for a canceled booking within 14 days from the cancellation. Neither the User nor the Passenger will be entitled to any refund (i) if the User cancels the Transport Service less than 48 hours before the confirmed time of departure (or other applicable deadline indicated at the booking), (ii) if the Passenger does not use the Transport Service (unless the Transport Service was not available due to the fault of the Driver or Blue Zen Trips as described below or unless required by applicable mandatory law), or (iii) if the User selected a non-refundable booking.
Cancellation by Passenger. If the Driver does not arrive at the established location within 30 minutes after the agreed time, the Passenger shall call Blue Zen Trips to notify the delay. If Blue Zen Trips does not arrange for the Driver or an alternative transport within an additional 30 minutes after such a call, the Passenger may cancel the Transport Service by calling Blue Zen Trips and informing them of the cancellation. In such a case, the Driver will refund the User the full paid price for such canceled Transport Service within 14 days from the cancellation. This is the sole remedy available to the User and the Passenger for the Driver’s failure to provide the Transport Service.
Cancellation by Driver. Passengers must be at the agreed pick-up place at the agreed pick-up time. If the Passengers are not ready to leave for the trip at the agreed time (no matter whether it is because they do not appear or for other reasons), the Driver may cancel the Transport Service by means of leaving the agreed pick-up place without any right to claim for a refund by the User or Passenger. The Driver may also cancel the Transport Service at any time for non-compliance with these Terms, without any right to claim a refund by the User or Passenger. If such Transport Service was expected to be paid in cash, the User must pay the full fee for the booked Service immediately upon a payment request made by the Driver or by Blue Zen Trips on behalf of Driver.
Termination of the trip. If the Driver is not able to complete the trip until the later of (i) six hours after the estimated time of arrival at the final destination and (ii) double of the time estimated for the total trip, both the Passenger and the Driver may terminate the Transport Services with immediate effect. In such a case, the Driver will refund the User the full paid price for such terminated Transport Service within 14 days from the termination, unless agreed otherwise between the Driver and the Passenger (for example unless agreed that the Driver will arrange an alternative transport). This is the sole remedy available to the User and the Passenger for the failure to complete the Transport Service.
Mandatory cancellation right. Any User using the Platform as a consumer for private use may cancel the booking and the agreement on the Transport Service within 14 days from the Booking Confirmation by email sent to hello@bluezentrips.com. This does not apply if the User instructs the Driver to provide the Transport Service already within that 14-day period. The Driver starts to provide the Transport Service already 24 hours before the agreed start of the trip by preparing the car for the trip (if the period between the Booking Confirmation and the agreed start of the trip is shorter, Driver starts to provide the Transport Service already from the Booking Confirmation). If such start of the Transport Service falls within the 14-day cancellation period, the User expressly instructs the Driver by the virtue of the Booking Confirmation to provide the Transport Service before the expiry of the cancellation period and acknowledges that such User is no longer allowed to cancel the Transport Service. Under no circumstances may the User cancel the Transport Service less than 24 hours before the agreed start of the trip. If the User rightfully cancels the Transport Service, the Driver will refund the User the full paid price for such canceled Transport Service within 14 days from the cancellation.
Rules of Conduct
In addition to complying with these Terms, you agree to comply with all applicable laws when accessing or using the Booking Services and Transport Services, and you may only access or use the Booking Services and Transport Services for lawful purposes (e.g., not request for the purpose or intent of transport of unlawful or hazardous materials). You may not access or use the Booking Services or Transport Services to cause nuisance, annoyance, inconvenience, damage, or loss to Blue Zen Trips, the Driver, or any other party. Passengers must act reasonably and with good manners during the trip and not interfere with the driving. Passengers must take reasonable care not to damage or make the car dirty. Passengers can bring small animals, such as a dog or a cat, to the car only if agreed so by the Driver. For such trips, you are responsible for properly securing the animal with a leash, harness, crate/carrier, or through other means. Drivers must act reasonably and with courtesy during the trip.
Timing and arrivals. While Drivers shall undertake their best effort to arrive at the destination (and sights, if booked) at the estimated time, neither the Driver nor Blue Zen Trips makes any warranty to Users about the time of arrival at the destination or sights.
Repair and Cleaning. Blue Zen Trips may charge you a fee on behalf of the Driver if, during your use of the Transport Services, you have caused damage to a vehicle or property that requires repair or cleaning (“Repair” and “Cleaning”). The amount of such fee shall be determined, in Blue Zen Trips’s sole discretion, based on the type of damage and the severity. Blue Zen Trips reserves the right to verify or otherwise require documentation of damages prior to processing a fee. If a Repair or Cleaning request is verified by Blue Zen Trips at Blue Zen Trips’s reasonable discretion, Blue Zen Trips reserves the right to facilitate payment for the reasonable cost of such Repair or Cleaning using your payment method designated in your Account. If the payment for the Transport Services was made in cash or if card payment fails, Blue Zen Trips shall contact the User and request a payment for the Repair or Cleaning that shall be made within no more than 14 days of the request. Such amounts, as well as those pertaining to lost and found goods, will be transferred by Blue Zen Trips to the Driver, if applicable, and are non-refundable.
