FORCE MAJEURE: Cobbles & Clover is not responsible for the death, injury, illness, delay, loss or damage to person or property, financial costs, or failure to perform or complete any duty or obligation if such issue is caused by an act of God, war, terrorist activity or threat, political or government action, mechanical breakdown, strike, riot, transportation cancellation, natural disaster, pandemic, fire, extreme weather, or any other cause beyond our control. 6. CHARGES AND PRICE CHANGES: You agree to pay the travel planning, change, and other fees charged by Cobbles & Clover. All of our fees are non-refundable. If a Supplier cancels a trip after booking, we will try to assist you with rebooking if the Supplier allows it, and a fee may apply. We do not guarantee any refunds or successful rebooking. Price Increases: Travel arrangements involving airline and cruise components are subject to Suppliers’ supplemental price increases that may be imposed by the Supplier and/or government, even after you have completed your purchase. You hereby consent to any such price increases and authorize your credit or debit card to be used for them. Suppliers have their own contracts covering cancellation penalties and other terms and conditions, and you agree to review and comply with such terms. 7. CREDIT CARD MERCHANT: We strongly recommend that you use a credit card for your purchase, so that you can exercise your rights under the Fair Credit Billing Act if you do not receive the services you purchased. However, if we are the credit card merchant, our role is to facilitate the sale, collect funds, and remit those funds to the Suppliers. If the Suppliers do not provide the services, your only recourse is against the Suppliers, and you agree not to initiate a chargeback against us. If we receive a payment instruction authorized by you and the instruction is erroneous in any way, Cobbles & Clover and the Supplies shall have no obligation or liability whatsoever for the error. You are solely responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the transactions you transmit via credit cards. You agree to abide by all applicable laws ("Laws") and any rules applicable to financial clearing houses including, but not limited to, the Automated Clearing House (ACH) rules and National Automated Clearing House Association ("NACHA") rules and any applicable bank, credit and charge card association rules, such as the Visa™ and MasterCard™ Association rules (collectively, “Rules”). You acknowledge that Cobbles & Clover or any Supplier can reject a transaction if it is not in compliance with both the Laws and Rules. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTAND THAT THE INTERNET AND ELECTRONIC FINANCIAL PROCESSING IS NOT AN UNFAILINGLY SECURE ENVIRONMENT. You are encouraged to obtain fraud protection for your financial accounts, bank, and credit card accounts. You agree to regularly and promptly review and verify all transactions including the monthly statements received from your bank and credit card issuer holding the account(s). If your bank or credit card statement shows transactions by us that you did not authorize, contact your bank/card issuer immediately. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFERS. 8. CLAIMS DEADLINE AND EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION: You agree to present any claims against Cobbles & Clover within 30 days after your trip ends and to file suit within one year of the incident, and you acknowledge that this expressly limits the applicable statute of limitations to one year. You agree that the courts in Middlesex Country, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, will be the exclusive jurisdiction for all claims brought by you or us, and you hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. The Terms and Conditions are governed by Massachusetts law without effect to its conflict of law principles. 9. INSURANCE: I hereby verify that I have reviewed my travel itinerary for accuracy. I have been advised of all applicable fees imposed by Cobbles & Clover and the Suppliers, plus I have been offered the option of purchasing trip cancellation/interruption insurance. For your protection, we strongly recommend that you purchase trip cancellation and travel accident insurance. Please note that, unless you buy a cancel-for-any-reason policy, most policies have a specific clause stating they do not cover epidemics and pandemics, especially when travel warnings are in place. No representation or description of the insurance made by our staff constitutes a binding assurance or promise about the insurance. You agree to hold us harmless for your election not to purchase travel insurance or for any denial of claim by travel insurer as it relates to COVID-19 or any other claim under the policy. I understand that discounted fares and vacation packages typically involve restrictions and that changing any aspect of my travel arrangements may result in the payment of additional money.
