Terms and conditions

Vehicle rental

ICONVEST d.o.o. rents vehicles in accordance with the terms and conditions of the rental agreement. The renter is aware of the terms and conditions and confirms this by signing the contract. The contract is recorded in several copies, one of which is given to the hirer on taking delivery of the vehicle.

Definition of parties

ICONVEST d.o.o., Vrtojbenska cesta 48, 5290 Šempeter pri Gorici, is the landlord. The renter is the legal or natural person who signs and/or renews the Rental Agreement, according to which the renter or the signatory, the driver and any additional drivers are jointly and severally liable for all obligations and liabilities, including payments.

Vehicle operation

The renter is aware of the conditions that oblige him/her to allow persons aged 21 years or over who have held a valid driving licence for at least two years to drive the vehicle. These are the persons authorised to operate the vehicle in accordance with the rental contract.

Prohibition from driving

Vehicles may not be operated by persons who either enter into a rental contract with false information or are under the influence of tranquillisers, alcohol, illegal drugs or anything contrary to road traffic regulations and for illegal purposes (e.g. customs offences). In the event of a breach of these conditions, the renter will be prohibited from driving the vehicle any further. In the event of a breach of the conditions, the renter undertakes to compensate ICONVEST Ltd. for any damage caused thereby, the amount of which will be determined by ICONVEST Ltd.

Prohibition to use the vehicle

It is forbidden to use the hired vehicle for regular lines of transport of goods or passengers, in any competition, test, race or driving school, to drive or tow another vehicle when the vehicle is not in running order or is overloaded, off roads l., ll. and lll. regulations and in a manner and for a purpose contrary to the regulations in force.

Vehicle pickup

The renter collects the vehicle at the time and place of ICONVEST d.o.o.’s registered office as stated in the contract. Upon agreement, the vehicle may be delivered to the desired location at an additional cost to the customer, which must be in accordance with the contract. The vehicle shall be collected in perfect condition with all statutory equipment, clean, with a full tank of fuel, registered and insured. The hirer is obliged to inspect the vehicle with all the equipment and documentation upon taking delivery, which he/she shall confirm by signing the contract. The documents, the vehicle equipment and the vehicle are the sole responsibility of the hirer. The vehicle shall at all times be the inalienable property of the lessor.

Vehicle return

The renter is obliged to inspect the returned vehicle upon collection and to note any damages and defects on the vehicle in the presence of the renter. The renter undertakes to return the vehicle in the condition in which it was received, i.e. roadworthy, properly maintained, with a full tank of fuel, clean, free of any forgotten or other items belonging to a third party and with all related equipment and documentation, subject to normal wear and tear, to the agreed location and at the agreed time as specified in the contract. In the event that the vehicle is not returned clean, the lessor shall charge the lessee cleaning costs of EUR 30 + VAT or EUR 200 + VAT if the vehicle requires dry-cleaning as a result of the lessee’s mishandling or mismanagement of the vehicle. If the vehicle is not returned with a full tank of fuel, a deposit will be charged for the difference in the amount of fuel in the tank at the then current market prices plus an additional EUR 10 + VAT for refuelling.

Fuel

Fuel is not included in the rental price. The renter takes delivery of the vehicle with a full tank of fuel and must return it as such. The vehicle shall be filled with the prescribed fuel. Any misfuelling and any costs and damages resulting therefrom shall be the sole responsibility of the renter.

Rental period and duration

The minimum rental period is 1 day. If the renter does not return the vehicle at the agreed time, the renter will be charged the daily rental rate for each initial 24 hours, at double the price for unlimited kilometres. If the renter wishes to extend the agreed rental period, he/she must inform the lessor at least 48 hours before the expiry of the contract and obtain the lessor’s written consent. The extension shall be effected at the registered office of ICONVEST d.o.o., or by confirmation of both parties by e-mail or SMS. In the event of non-fulfilment of the conditions for the renewal of the rental of the vehicle, the lessee shall be deemed to have misappropriated the vehicle and ICONVEST d.o.o. shall report him/her to the competent authorities.

Maintenance

The renter undertakes to take good care of the vehicle, regularly checking the engine oil level, radiator coolant and tyre pressure as prescribed by the vehicle manufacturer. The renter shall be solely liable for any costs incurred as a result of insufficient or negligent maintenance. The oil must be changed every 7000 km. The costs shall be reimbursed to the hirer only if an invoice is submitted. The cost of any minor repairs shall be borne solely by the renter.

Defects

In the event of a breakdown, the tenant undertakes to inform the renter immediately, who will provide instructions in the light of the information provided. Repairs to the vehicle and replacement of parts may be carried out only in accordance with the attached schedule (service booklet) and with the prior approval of the renter. Reimbursement will be made only on presentation of an invoice from the company which carried out the repair and on condition that the parts replaced are presented to the renter. If the repair has not been carried out by an approved firm or if the replacement parts are not provided, the costs shall be borne in full by the tenant. If, on return of the vehicle, any part of the vehicle or equipment is found to have been replaced or lost, the rentee shall be charged by the renter compensation equal to three times the market price. The rentee shall not be entitled to claim from the renter replacement of the vehicle, reimbursement of transport costs or reimbursement of other costs incurred by the renter during the rental period as a result of a breakdown of the vehicle or a traffic accident.

Accidents

The rentee undertakes to protect the interests of the renter and its insurer in the event of any accident or other damage to the rental vehicle. Any accident, destruction, seizure or theft of the vehicle must be reported to the nearest police station and to the renter. In the event of an accident, it is obligatory to fill in the “European Accident Report” form. The hirer must record the names and addresses of those involved and witnesses to the accident, as well as the registration numbers of the vehicles involved. He/she undertakes not to leave the damaged vehicle until it has been secured or removed to a safe place.

The rentee agrees to cooperate with the renter in the investigation and procedures related to the accident. If the rentee fails to comply with this article, the rentee shall be liable for all costs of damage to or loss of the vehicle. The rentee also agrees to inform the renter immediately, even if the damage is insignificant. If the rentee fails to do so, he/she shall be liable for all consequences and any damage suffered by the renter as a result thereof. If the rentee complies with all the terms and conditions of the rental contract, his liability for direct or accidental loss to the vehicle shall be limited to a deductible of 1% of the newly acquired value of the vehicle at the date of payment of the damage. If the rentee fails to report any damage resulting from a car crash or any other damage to the vehicle (e.g. theft), the rentee shall be solely liable for all damage to the vehicle. The rentee agrees to act as a good steward on behalf of the renter and its insurer in any unforeseen situations that may arise.

In the event of an accident, the renter is under no obligation to provide free transport from the place of the accident, nor replacement of the vehicle or any other compensation. The renter shall not be liable for any injury to the driver or passengers in the vehicle in the event of an accident.

Insurance

Pri uporabi vozila po določilih in pogojih najemne pogodbe, najemnik ni zavarovan pred avtomobilsko odgovornostjo za škodo proti tretjim osebam. V primeru prometne nezgode ali druge poškodbe, odtujitve oziroma uničenja vozila ali njegovih delov, kot tudi v primeru požara, je najemnik v celoti odgovoren za najeto vozilo. Najemnik je prav tako odgovoren najemodajalcu za vso škodo, ki so jo povzročile tretje osebe v času najema. Najemnik je obvezen pokriti do celote vse odškodninske zahtevke tretjih oseb, ki niso krite s strani zavarovalnice.

Loss of bonus

The rentee is obliged to reimburse the renter for the loss of the bonus and for any costs incurred as a result of the rentee’s negligence or non-compliance with the rental agreement. In the event of loss of income due to the rentee’s negligence or breach of contract, the renter shall retain a deposit equal to the full amount of the damages suffered as a result. In the event that the damage suffered is greater than the deposit, the rentee shall immediately pay the difference in price.

Loss of property

The renter is not liable for the rentee’s property or the property of others lost during the rental period. By signing the rental agreement, the rentee waives any claims based on the aforementioned losses and any damages related thereto.

Traffic offences

The rentee is responsible for and assumes all liabilities arising from any failure to observe traffic regulations, improper parking or any other violation of the regulations in the use of the vehicle. The rentee shall also assume all damages arising therefrom. The rentee shall bear any costs or penalties incurred in this respect. The rentee’s liability under this article shall endure even after the termination of the rental contract insofar as the penalties or damages arise from the time when the rentee was in possession of the rented vehicle.

Documents

Will be added later.

Refund of deposit

The rentee’s deposit will be returned to the rentee upon the timely return of the undamaged vehicle, minus the rental value of the vehicle as shown in the price list. In the event of any damage to the vehicle, the renter shall retain the deposit to the extent of the cost or loss of income.

The deposit shall not be refunded if the damage to the rented vehicle is caused intentionally or negligently, by being drunk or under the influence of illegal drugs, by theft of the vehicle in an unguarded car park and if the renter fails to report and return the vehicle one day after the expiry of the period laid down in the rental contract. Nor shall it be returned in all other cases specified in the rental contract.

Data protection

The signatory to the rental contract agrees that the renter may use his/her personal data for the performance of his/her contractual obligations and the exercise of his/her rights under the contractual relationship and, if necessary, to transmit them to the insurance company and to the relevant public authorities and courts. The rentee also agrees that the renter may make enquiries with the competent state authorities and institutions concerning the rentee’s residential address, employment and remuneration, and use such information insofar as this is necessary for the performance of the contractual provisions. The rentee and/or the signatory expressly authorises the renter to pass on information on any default to other financial organisations and agrees that the information may be kept for 10 years.

Changes to the contract and rental terms

During the rental period, no changes can be made to the rental contract or to the terms and conditions of the contract or to the General Rental Terms and Conditions.

Termination of lease

The renter reserves the right to take the vehicle away from the rentee without consent before the end of the rental contract if the rentee does not comply with the terms of the rental contract. The rentee waives all claims for the taking of the vehicle.

Final provisions

The court in Nova Gorica has jurisdiction over any disputes arising in connection with the provisions of the Rental Agreement or the General Rental Terms and Conditions. Any disputes regarding the legal entity tenant and any drivers shall be exclusively disputes between the said parties and shall not affect the exercise of the renter’s rights vis-à-vis the said persons, such as the joint and several liability of the said persons for the obligations under the contract and the rental conditions, as the signatory warrants that the said persons are aware of the provisions of the contract and all the terms and conditions.
