BEFORE THE TRIP:

To do this, Allmountain Chile must send the form (either in Word or PDF format), in the respective booking confirmation email (or via whatsapp). By the same means, the customer must send this document (by Word document, PDF or by photo well taken and in which the detailed information is legible). All information stated in such document shall be understood to be in accordance with and faithful to reality. Any discomfort, illness or health condition that has not been adequately reported in this document, releases Allmountain Chile from liability.
• In case of any doubt or query before the trip, customers may make the respective consultations through any means of communication: whatsapp, email, phone call, etc.
• All necessary information will be sent to the client so that he/she is aware of the terms and conditions of Allmountain Chile, along with other forms of the activity: reservation confirmation voucher, medical and risk acceptance form, technical equipment reservation form (if applicable), risk prevention protocols and emergency response.
• In case of impossibility of participation due to force majeure or fortuitous event or a serious health situation, rescheduling of the activity may be permitted, depending on the circumstances. Non-serious reasons for suspending and/or rescheduling the activity will not be accepted.

Clients must make previous ascents or stays at altitude prior to the start of the altitude expedition, with a minimum of 15 days in advance, counted backwards, from the day the itinerary begins. Failure to comply with this requirement releases Allmountain Chile from responsibility in the event that, during the expedition, the client does not satisfactorily achieve a safe and sufficient acclimatization process to complete the ascents. No refunds will be given in these cases, nor in cases of early termination of the expedition for this reason.
• Prior to the trip, it is understood that the client, once the reservation is paid and participation in any of the activities is confirmed, gives his consent for the use of his image by Allmountain and its broadcast channels, social networks and website, for the taking of photographs, recordings or filming for advertising uses or purposes.

• The guide in charge may suspend the activity if any member of the team does not follow the guide’s instructions.
• The activity may be suspended in case of rain, snow, strong winds or evident risk of forest fire or electrical storm.
• The activity may be suspended if the following geographical situations occur: landslides, river flooding, alluvium (the roads are connected by bridges, if alluvium occurs this would cause isolation), volcanic eruptions, earthquakes.
• An activity can be suspended inside a protected area when the pertinent authority (Conaf or Carabineros de Chile) establishes it for safety reasons.
• The activity may be suspended when any member of the group suffers an incident or accident.
• The activity may be suspended if any member of the team does not comply with the previously established rules of behavior (consuming alcohol, drugs, and/or other substances before, during, or after the activity).
• The activity may be suspended if it is detected that the technical equipment or part of it is in poor condition for the activity.
• The activity may be suspended if the guide catches a client performing a reckless action, which puts his integrity and that of the equipment at risk.
• The activity may be suspended if the vehicle has any damage.
• The activity may be suspended in case of serious health problems affecting any participant.
CRITERIA USED BY OUR COMPANY TO SUSPEND THE ACTIVITY:
• The guide will suspend the activity in the event that a client suffers a non-minor accident, which involves vital risk, psychological and/or physical damage, or must be evacuated from the place as soon as possible.
• The guide will suspend the activity if weather conditions change suddenly (rain, snowfall, thunderstorms, etc.).
• Allmountain will suspend the activity if the competent authority suspends activities within any perimeter for safety or sanitary reasons.
• Allmountain will suspend the activity if the vehicles are not in optimal safety conditions for the activity.
• Allmountain and the guide will suspend the activity if one of its participants is in an evident state of having consumed alcohol or psychotropic substances.
• The guide will suspend the activity if he finds any damage to the technical equipment necessary for the activity.
PROVISION OF FIRST AID:
• The guide/s in charge of the activity is a Wilderness First Responder (WFR- Wilderness First Responder).
• First aid is defined as the immediate and temporary care given to a victim of an accident, sudden onset of an illness or harmful environmental action, which is not definitive and does not replace medical care (Source: Wilderness First Emergency Care Program Vs. V.3.4.1 Rev. July 2022).
• Consent is required for the provision of first aid in remote areas. In this case, this item is added to the medical record and it is understood that informed consent is given with the signature on the medical record.
• Even considering the preceding, in the event that the client (of legal age) refuses first aid or transfers, a “refusal of treatment” document will be requested to be signed or this fact will be accredited by witnesses who are on site. If there is no document at hand and / or witnesses, it can be certified by video, photograph or audio recorded for that purpose where the customer, if possible and depending on the circumstances, can confirm and embody their decision. In these cases, Allmountain and its guides will be released from any liability.
ON EARLY TERMINATION OF THE ACTIVITY
• In cases of early termination of activity for reasons attributable to the client, especially in activities of 2 or more days, the additional costs associated with it, will be borne by the client. For example, in an expedition to the Ojos del Salado Volcano of 7 days, in which any participant would like to return earlier to Copiapó, he/she will have to assume the costs of transportation, fees, food and lodging of the guide-driver. This is not an exhaustive example.
• Additional costs will depend on the activity to be carried out and the place where it takes place (distances, travel time, etc. will be taken into account).
• The activity will be terminated in advance by the Allmountain team in the event that weather, environmental or other conditions make it unsafe for all participants to stay. In this case, there will be no additional costs associated with the clients.
• Any modification of the program and itinerary that implies an early termination by mutual agreement of the group and participants, will not imply additional associated costs. For example: bringing forward the summit day due to weather conditions, which allows the option of early termination of the itinerary, at the choice of the participating client(s). In this case, the total price paid is not modified and no discounts are given for early termination days.
• No refunds will be made for services not used due to early termination.
ON CANCELLATIONS AND RESCHEDULING
• Early rescheduling (occurring just before the start of the activity) may occur in cases of imminent bad weather forecast or risk, such as heavy rains, snowstorms, strong winds or evident risk of forest fire or thunderstorm, etc. There is no refund for this concept.
• Rescheduling will be applied as an alternative solution.
• If you made your reservation (you paid 30% or 50% of the total price of the activity as a reservation), and you cannot participate in the activity due to unforeseen circumstances or force majeure, the date of the activity can be rescheduled to any date of the SEASON 2024- 2025, which will be subject to availability, for the same or any other similar activity. The paid reservation will remain valid until its use on the rescheduled date. For this purpose, AllMountain will send a reservation voucher, which will also be transferable (depending on the activity, as some activities involve flight payments with connections, registrations and permits, etc.). In all cases, AllMountain will grant the absolute flexibility necessary and possible, as long as notice and coordination is given reasonably in advance of the reserved date to reschedule the activity and it is an act of God or force majeure.
• In case of absolute impossibility of rescheduling or for reasons of force majeure, our clients have a maximum period of time to CANCEL the activity with:
• This cancellation must be made in a clear and justified manner by the client, in writing, through the same means in which contact is maintained with the client, which can be by: email, instant messaging whatsapp, Instagram or Facebook.
• In case of non-compliance with the deadline stipulated above, there will be no refunds of money paid for the reservation.
MONEY REFUNDS
• In case of absolute impossibility of rescheduling or for reasons of force majeure, and making the request for cancellation of the activity, before the expiration of the maximum period described above, the customer will be refunded half of what was paid for the reservation (50% of what was paid for the reservation). The total amount of the reservation cannot be refunded because, as part of our fair trade policies and to ensure proper logistics before each activity, we pay our suppliers in advance. And, depending on the nature of the activity and in very specific cases (such as those in which there are reservations made for less than 30% or 50% of the activity and the reservation has been used for payment of reservations with other suppliers, such as airlines, luggage, interconnections, hotels, etc., the reservation will not be refunded or the refund will be less than 50% of the amount paid for the reservation).
• In case of not meeting the deadline stipulated in the item “ABOUT CANCELLATIONS AND RESERVATIONS”, there will be no refund of money regarding your reservation. It is for this reason that we prioritize to offer the client the opportunity to change the date of the activity for a future date, during the 2024- 2025 season, and at a value equal to or higher than the booked activity, a possibility that can even be transferable to another person if the client deems it convenient (and circumstances permit, in cases of sub-bookings with suppliers).
• The refund of the money corresponding to half of the amount paid for the reservation will be made, if possible, through the same means in which the customer made the payment of the same. For this purpose, AllMountain will have a maximum of 15 working days from the date of the request or notice of cancellation of the activity to refund the amount paid.
• In case of not being in adequate conditions to perform the activity (presenting symptoms of having consumed drugs, alcohol or any psychotropic substance), AllMountain will cancel the activity with respect to the customer who presents such states/symptoms and will not refund the money already paid for the reservation.
• In case the client takes more than 20 minutes to be at the pick up point on the day of the activity, there will be no refund of money already paid.
• In case of failure to comply with the deadline previously stipulated for rescheduling/cancellations, there will be no refunds of money paid for the reservation.
• There will be no refunds when the activities are provided by another supplier/tour operator, since the terms and conditions of the latter apply (with prior notice to the client in the process prior to the confirmation of the activity). For example: Torres del Paine Circuit, supplier Vértice Travel.
• Once the activity has started and finished, no money will be refunded in case of dissatisfaction with the activity.

In case of partial destruction that makes impossible a repair that guarantees the functionality and safety of the object or the repair costs of the object exceed its market value, it must be replaced by a new one, at the full cost of the responsible customer.
• Repairs, if any, shall only be carried out if the same functionality and safety as before the damage occurred is guaranteed. All of which shall be at the expense of the responsible customer.

• The above shall also apply in case of loss or destruction (total or partial) of any object, element and/or equipment that is of common use for the activity, such as tents, dome, kitchen objects, camping objects or others, etc.
