These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "GTC") govern the mutual rights and obligations between SmartInvest Capital Consulting, s.r.o. (hereinafter "Lessor") and natural or legal persons (hereinafter "Lessee") arising from vehicle rental and related services.
These GTC are an integral part of every vehicle rental contract concluded via this website, by phone or in person at the Lessor's branch.

In case of a consumer dispute, the consumer is entitled to out-of-court dispute resolution under Section 20d et seq. of Act No. 634/1992 Coll., on Consumer Protection (Czech Republic). The competent body is the Czech Trade Inspection Authority (www.coi.cz); the list of other authorised bodies is kept by the Czech Ministry of Industry and Trade.
X. Consumer Protection and Contract Withdrawal
10.1. Consumer Information
In accordance with Section 1820 et seq. of Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code, and Act No. 634/1992 Coll., on Consumer Protection (Czech Republic), we inform you that:
- The service is provided by the company stated above
- The total price including all fees is stated before order confirmation
- Payment is possible by methods stated in Art. IV
- The service is provided at the agreed time
- Rights from defective performance are governed by the Complaints Policy
10.2. Contract Withdrawal
Under Section 1837(j) of the Czech Civil Code, a consumer may not withdraw from a contract for the hire of a means of transport where performance is due on a specific date or within a specific period. Vehicle rental is a service of this nature, so the right to withdraw within 14 days without giving a reason does not apply; cancellation of a booking is governed by a separate article of these GTC.
XI. Personal Data Protection
Processing of the Lessee's personal data is governed by Privacy Policy, which is an integral part of these GTC. By submitting the order, the Lessee confirms that they have familiarized themselves with it and agree to it.
XII. Final Provisions
These GTC become valid and effective on the day of their publication on this website.
The Lessor reserves the right to unilaterally change these GTC. Changes become effective on the day of their publication. For the current reservation, the version of GTC effective at the time of its creation always applies.
If any provision of these GTC is or becomes invalid, ineffective or unenforceable, this does not affect the validity of other provisions.
Relations not governed by these GTC are governed by the laws of the Czech Republic, in particular Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code, and Act No. 634/1992 Coll., on Consumer Protection.
In case of a dispute, the courts of the Czech Republic have jurisdiction.
