• The remaining 70% + VAT (calculated at the legal rate) must be paid at least 8 (eight) working days before the scheduled facility use.
• Non-use by the user does not entitle them to a refund of the deposit under any circumstances.
• If not otherwise specified, the total rental balance and additional service fees must be paid within 8 (eight) working days before the scheduled facility use; failure to do so results in contract termination due to non-compliance.
• Failure to use the track and/or services by the organizer does not exempt them from paying the full agreed amount, except in case of cancellation received at least 30 (thirty) working days before the scheduled facility use, in which case only the deposit will be retained.
• AUTODROMO DI MODENA retains the total rental and service fee agreed upon in the contract, even if the services are only partially used.
• Non-use or partial use due to force majeure or reasons beyond AUTODROMO DI MODENA's control does not entitle the user to any reduction of the agreed amount.
• If the track becomes unusable for reasons beyond AUTODROMO DI MODENA’s control, the Management may offer an alternative date or refund the received amount. If non-use or partial use is due to AUTODROMO DI MODENA’s decisions, its liability is limited to the amount paid by the organizer.
• If the track and facilities are used beyond the agreed time, additional fees will apply, and prior authorization from the Management is required.
