Terms and Conditions (T&Cs)
of Mint Kiteboarding di Felix Federl
1. Conclusion of Contract
By making a booking, the participant submits a binding offer to conclude a contract. Bookings may be made verbally on site, by telephone, via email, or using the booking form on the Mint Kiteboarding website.
The contract becomes effective upon receipt of the booking confirmation by the participant. The confirmation is not subject to any specific form. When booking via the Mint Kiteboarding website, the contract is concluded upon display of the booking confirmation on the screen.
For minors, bookings must be made by a parent or legal guardian. In this case, the contract is concluded with the legal guardian on behalf of the minor.
If the participant has not received confirmation at least 4 days before the start of the booked service, the participant must contact Mint Kiteboarding immediately.
If a participant makes a booking for additional persons, the booking participant acts as their representative and is responsible for informing all additional participants about these Terms and Conditions and any other contractual provisions.

Payment becomes due upon receipt of the booking confirmation and must be made within 14 days. For short-notice bookings, payment must be made no later than 1 day before the start of the booked service.

Mint Kiteboarding reserves the right to deny participation if full payment has not been received.
