This security deposit will take the form of a bank pre-authorization subject to the rules of banking law including a blocking of the sum on the Customer's account without debit, authorization of direct debit by the Lessor valid for a period of thirty days.The credit card used must imperatively be in the name and surname of the Customer and complies with the requirements of Article 14 hereof. The lack of availability of the amount allocated to the security deposit will justify the Lessor's refusal to hand over the vehicle to the Customer, as well as the termination of the rental contract. A proof of address of less than three months (EDF-GDF receipt, telephone bill or Carte Vitale certificate) is required for any rental.It is agreed between the parties that this security deposit will remain with the Lessor in the event of damage attributable to the Customer or in the absence of fault of a third party and in the event of theft of the vehicle (unless the contractual guarantees set out above apply) and up to the amount of the damage suffered.

5.1. Prepayment - Extension: The payment of the rental will be made prior to the taking of the vehicle by the Customer or at the latest when taking possession in the agency. Under no circumstances can the initial payment be used for a rental extension.

ARTICLE 10: INSURANCE AND ADDITIONAL DAMAGE WAIVERS
All our vehicles are covered by an insurance policy as follows:
- “third party liability”, in accordance with the regulations in force, as well as the following optional additional protection:
-CDW (partial redemption of deductible in the event of damage to the rented vehicle),
-THW (partial redemption of deductible in the event of the complete theft of the rented vehicle),
-PAI (protection of driver and transported persons),
The Customer may consult the details of these options, their scope and exclusions in the explanatory document of the insurance and additional protection available to the Customer at the Lessor's agency and on its website
As such, the Customer undertakes in particular to:
- declare to the Lessor within two working days (excluding public holidays) from the discovery of the accident any accident, damage or fire and immediately alert the police authorities for any theft or personal injury. This claim declaration period is also 2 working days in the event of theft of the vehicle.

Material damage and / or theft of the vehicle remains the responsibility of the Renter up to a deductible, the amount of which varies with the category of the vehicle.
If the Renter accepts these additional covers at the current rates, the non-waivable excess shall apply in the case of a claim. If the renter declines these covers, the total excess currently in force shall apply in the case of a claim.
However, even if the Customer has agreed to pay one or more additional covers to lower excess, he or she shall remain fully liable for all damage to the upper parts of the coachwork due to collision with a fixed or mobile body (bridge, tunnel, porch, tree branch, other overhanging objects, etc.).
The same shall apply to damage to coachwork and the mechanical parts underneath the vehicle (front-wheel axle unit, oil sump, rocker panel etc.) The Customer shall have full financial liability for all damage to the vehicle caused by uses for which the vehicle was not designed or by off-road use, even if the Customer has accepted the additional cover to lower excess.

In the event that the keys are lost and/or damaged (humidity, damage after having been dropped, etc.), towing costs, a copy of the key and resetting the antitheft device shall be paid by the Customer, regardless of his or her insurance package.
If the amount of the damage to the vehicle is less than the non-waivable excess, the Lessor shall repay the Customer the difference between these amounts. The amount of damage shall be the financial value of the loss suffered by the Lessor due to the damage to, destruction of or theft of the vehicle rented by the Customer. Consequently, any sum claimed by the Lessor for damage to the rented Vehicle, as estimated by an adjuster, is to be considered compensation for repair costs, adjustment costs, towing costs, the cost of Vehicle Downtime amounting to 40 €excluding taxes and administrative and processing costs, amounting to 50 € excluding taxes. If no repairs have been made, the Customer shall owe the estimated amount of their cost as compensation for the loss of market value of the vehicle.
Please note that in the case of an accident where the circumstances are related to the Customer's non-compliance with the Traffic code, negligence of the Customer or driving in a state of intoxication or illicit substance, the Lessor will be entitled to claim from the Customer at fault all compensation and damage suffered by third parties notwithstanding any additional protection subscribed by the Customer.
In the event that the vehicle is declared economically irreparable to the faults of the Renter, the Lessor will invoice the customer the amount of the VRADE (replacement value to be said expert) as well as the ancillary damages suffered by the Lessor because of the loss of the vehicle (the costs of recirculation, the costs of expertise, the early repayment of the loan).
The VRADE and the ancillary damages will be invoiced as follows to the Customer:
If the customer has not taken out any additional protection with the Lessor, the Lessor will invoice the entire VRADE and related damages to the Customer for reimbursement by the Customer or his insurer. The Customer undertakes in this case to communicate to the Lessor within two working days of the occurrence of the claim the contact details of his insurer.
If the Customer has subscribed to an additional protection covering damage to the vehicle, the Lessor may only claim from the Customer the amount of the deductible related to the supplement subscribed. In any case, the Customer will remain fully responsible for all damage caused to the upper and lower parts of the vehicle regardless of the additional protection subscribed in accordance with Article 10 hereof.
ARTICLE 11: FUEL
