The minimum charge is one day (24 hours), plus mileage in excess of the daily mileage allowance and the maximum daily miles. We will determine the miles by reading the odometer in the vehicle. The daily charge applies to consecutive 24- hour periods starting at noon on the day the rental begins.

(See Page 2 “Driving and Traffic Laws”).

You agree to pay any additional charges provided on the rental documents which are over and above the base rental rates, mileage and service charges and fees, as well as all applicable sales and/or other taxes.

You and any additional authorized drivers are absolutely liable, jointly and severally, and agree to pay us for any and all loss or damage to the vehicle, even if someone else caused it or the cause is unknown, whether due to theft, fire, hail, flood, collision, vandalism, or any other cause, subject to limitations imposed by the law where the vehicle is rented.

The Company complies with applicable motor vehicle financial responsibility laws as an insured. Except to the extent required by the motor vehicle financial responsibility laws of the applicable state or otherwise by law or this Agreement, the Company does not extend any of its motor vehicle financial responsibility to Renter, any additional authorized driver(s), passengers or third parties through the Rental Agreement. If valid automobile liability insurance, whether the Outdoorsy Renter Insurance or otherwise, is available on any basis to Renter, additional authorized driver(s) or any other driver and such insurance satisfies the applicable state motor vehicle financial responsibility law, then Company extends none of its motor vehicle financial responsibility. However, if Renter and all additional authorized drivers are in compliance with these and all other terms and conditions of the Rental Agreement and the Company is obligated under applicable law to extend its motor vehicle financial responsibility to Renter, additional authorized driver(s) or third parties, then the Company’s obligation is limited to the applicable state minimum financial responsibility amounts. Unless required by law, the Company’s financial responsibility shall not extend to any claim made by a passenger while riding in or getting in or out of the vehicle.

Renter shall defend, indemnify and hold the Company and its affiliated companies and their respective officers, agents and employees harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, claims, demands, awards, costs, attorney fees, and other expenses incurred by us whatsoever in any manner resulting or arising from or in connection with the Rental Agreement, the rental transaction or from the use of the vehicle by you or any person during the rental, including claims of, or liabilities to, third parties. Renter may present a claim to Renter’s insurance carrier for such occurrences or losses; but in any event Renter shall retain all responsibility to the Company for such occurrences and losses under this indemnity obligation.

If we breach any of our obligations under the Rental Agreement and/or if the vehicle has any mechanical failure or other failure not caused by Renter or any additional authorized driver, and if we are liable under applicable law for such breach or vehicle failure, our sole liability to you and to any additional authorized driver and your and any additional authorized driver’s sole remedy (cumulatively) is limited to recovery by you of the pro rata rental rate for the period in which you and any additional authorized driver(s) did not have use of the vehicle during the rental period. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND EACH ADDITIONAL AUTHORIZED DRIVER WAIVE AND RELEASE US FROM ANY LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH THIS RENTAL OR THE RESERVATION OF THE VEHICLE.

The parties agree that the sole and exclusive jurisdiction for the resolution of any disputes, claims, or actions of any kind arising under the Rental Agreement or related to the Rental Agreement shall be in the state or federal courts located in Seattle, Washington, and each party hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts for the purposes of any such proceedings. The parties further agree that the prevailing party in any legal proceeding to resolve any disputes, claims, or actions of any kind arising under the Rental Agreement or related to the Rental Agreement shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal costs from the non-prevailing party.

We may transfer our rights and obligations under the Rental Agreement to another organization, but this will not affect your rights or our obligations. You may only transfer your rights or obligations under the Rental Agreement to another person if we agree in writing.

If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a  default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.

The title of this document and headings used herein are for reference only and shall not be construed to give any substantive meaning hereto.

Each of the provisions of the Rental Agreement, including these Terms and Conditions, operate separately. If any court or competent authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. If there is any conflict between any other document that is part of the Rental Agreement and these Terms and Conditions, the latter shall govern and control.
