Cancellation within 14 days: 50% of total fee due
No-Show by Technician: Full refund of all amounts paid.
No-Show by Client: Full payment due to Technician.
Force Majeure: Force majeure applies only where performance is prevented or made unsafe by circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the affected party, such as severe weather, natural disaster, epidemic or public health emergency, government order or restriction, venue closure, serious illness or injury, civil unrest, interruption of essential transportation, or comparable emergency. Ordinary weather concerns, seasonal temperature changes, client preference, anticipated discomfort, or voluntary cancellation of the event do not constitute force majeure unless both parties agree in writing.
The affected party shall notify the other party as promptly as practicable. If a force majeure event prevents performance, the parties will make reasonable efforts to reschedule in good faith. A rescheduled date may require a price adjustment to reflect the market value of the new date, to be negotiated in good faith. If rescheduling is not feasible within 90 days of the original date, either party may terminate this Agreement by written notice. Any refund or credit will be determined under this Agreement after accounting for reasonable non-recoverable expenses already incurred by Technician (such as travel, equipment rental, mobilization, or crew call costs) and work already performed.
