ENIGMA ESCAPE acknowledges the right to modify or have modified all or part of these general terms and conditions of sale as well as the content of its WEBSITES (www.enigmaescape.fr /

ARTICLE 2. ENGAGEMENT AND CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITY
The contract commits all PARTICIPANTS who unreservedly accept these general terms and conditions of sale. It is the responsibility of THE BUYER to ensure that the PARTICIPANTS, including children, are all aware of these conditions and obligations and accept them.
ARTICLE 3. ABSENCE OF RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL
In accordance with the applicable regulations resulting from French Directive 2011/83 of October 25, 2011, concerning consumer rights, THE BUYER cannot exercise a right of withdrawal when RESERVING remote services "other than for residential purposes, transport of goods, car rental, catering, or services related to leisure activities if the contract provides for a specific date or period of performance." Therefore, THE BUYER cannot benefit from the right of withdrawal, cancellation, or refund for the services offered within the framework of these sales conditions. This also applies to all PARTICIPANTS.
ARTICLE 4. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL FOR GIFT VOUCHERS
For gift vouchers and in accordance with the provisions of French Article L.121-21 of the Consumer Code, in the case of distance selling, THE BUYER has a withdrawal period of 14 days from the receipt of the gift voucher by the buyer without having to provide reasons or pay penalties. THE BUYER informs ENIGMA ESCAPE of their decision to withdraw by sending, before the expiry of the period provided for in French Article L. 121-21, a letter by email to contact@enigmaescape.fr or any other unambiguous statement expressing their intention to withdraw. As no return is necessary for electronic gift vouchers, the refund will be made within 14 days from the receipt of the withdrawal request.
ARTICLE 5. MODIFICATION OF THE RESERVATION
The RESERVATION can be moved to another date and/or another room only by email from THE BUYER to contact@enigmaescape.fr, up to 3 days before the activity date, if the schedule allows. No modification can be made by phone; a written trace is necessary. No modification is possible from 3 days before the activity date, unless THE BUYER has subscribed to the cancellation option at the time of booking (refer to Article 19).
ARTICLE 6. EARLY ARRIVAL, DELAY, AND EXTRA OR FEWER PARTICIPANTS
The exact arrival time is indicated in the confirmation email of the RESERVATION. It is possible that we may not be able to accommodate PARTICIPANTS arriving early as the entrance door to the premises may be closed. Beyond 15 minutes late for a RESERVATION, 10 minutes of playtime will be deducted. ENIGMA ESCAPE reserves the right to refuse access to PARTICIPANTS who are 30 minutes or more late. The timings will be consistently reiterated in the confirmation emails sent by ENIGMA ESCAPE. If fewer PARTICIPANTS show up to participate in the RESERVATION than the number initially planned during the booking, THE BUYER and/or the PARTICIPANTS cannot claim a refund for the price difference. If more PARTICIPANTS show up to participate in the game SESSION than initially planned during the booking, the price difference must be paid before participating in the game, within the limit of 6 players (PARTICIPANTS) allowed per ROOM. ENIGMA ESCAPE reserves the right to refuse any reservation to a BUYER who has not paid for all the services that have been invoiced to them. If a part of the group is late and the rest of the group has chosen to start the game without them, the late PARTICIPANTS cannot under any circumstances join the game once it has started. PARTICIPANTS cannot claim a refund for the price difference.
ARTICLE 7. ADDRESSES
ENIGMA ESCAPE has three locations in Toulouse: at 34 rue Bayard, 43 avenue de la gloire, and 201 route de Launaguet (referred to as "Enigma City"). It is the responsibility of all PARTICIPANTS to check on ENIGMA ESCAPE's website and in the confirmation and reminder emails where the reserved rooms are located. THE BUYER must ensure that all PARTICIPANTS are aware of the address where the reserved ROOM(S) is located. In the event of an address error on the part of the PARTICIPANTS, they must reach the second address on their own and without assistance from ENIGMA ESCAPE. If this causes a delay, refer to Article 6.
ARTICLE 8. ROOM AVAILABILITY AND USAGE
According to the very principle of the game, ENIGMA ESCAPE grants PARTICIPANTS the right to occupy the ROOM for a maximum duration of 60 (sixty) minutes. The occupancy of the ROOM is solely intended for participating in a GAME SESSION organized by ENIGMA ESCAPE, which must be done in a team of 2 to 6 people maximum. PARTICIPANTS accept that the duration of presence in the ROOM is a maximum of 60 minutes, whether they have managed to find all the clues and solve all the puzzles or not. This point is fundamental to the game itself. Similarly, PARTICIPANTS accept that the GAME SESSION may end before the 60 minutes if they have managed to find all the clues and solve all the puzzles in less than 60 minutes, without any adjustment or tariff compensation. Admission to the ROOM is only possible upon presentation of the reservation confirmation email (sent shortly after the payment process to THE BUYER) or upon presentation of the latter's identification. PARTICIPANTS are required to maintain the ROOM and all its equipment (non-exhaustive list: decorations, furnishings, etc.) in good condition and use it in accordance with the authorized purpose. Therefore, the PARTICIPANT acknowledges in the CONTRACT that any intentional damage or damage caused by unauthorized manipulation of the room and its equipment will be subject to additional charges. Furthermore, the PARTICIPANT is required to use the ROOM and its equipment in a manner that does not cause or risk causing any damage to other PARTICIPANTS, ENIGMA ESCAPE's premises, or materials. Throughout their presence on ENIGMA ESCAPE's premises, the PARTICIPANT agrees to behave respectfully, comply with the rules, and cooperate with ENIGMA ESCAPE's staff. In this regard, ENIGMA ESCAPE does not tolerate any form of violence, whether verbal or physical, harassment, or intimidation towards its employees and reserves the right to refuse access to the premises to anyone whose behavior resembles the aforementioned elements. ENIGMA ESCAPE also reserves the right to refuse access to anyone under the influence of alcohol or drugs for the safety of that person and their entourage. For all the conditions mentioned above, the denial of access does not entitle to any compensation or refund. Due to the nature of the game, no recording can be made in the ROOM. Therefore, the use of video and/or audio recording devices (including but not limited to: mobile phones, cameras, Go Pros) is strictly prohibited. Any use of such a device may cause the complete cessation of the game for the entire team. ENIGMA ESCAPE expects its PARTICIPANTS not to disclose the details of the game directly and/or indirectly. Any partial or complete disclosure would violate ENIGMA ESCAPE's commercial interests.
ARTICLE 9. MINIMUM AGE
The complexity of the game does not allow PARTICIPANTS under the age of 9 to participate in the rooms "Braqueurs Amateurs,"
"L'étrange Manoir Alexander," "Le Temple Perdu," and "The Show." Minor PARTICIPANTS under the age of 15 must be accompanied by two adults.
Minor PARTICIPANTS over the age of 15 do not necessarily need to be accompanied by an adult. In case of doubt about a PARTICIPANT's age,
ENIGMA ESCAPE reserves the right to request proof of identity.
If a child under 9 years old arrives accompanied, access to the room will not be allowed, and an adult must stay with them outside the
ROOM during the game if there are enough PARTICIPANTS left for the GAME SESSION to be organized. If only one adult is present in a group
of children under 15, the GAME SESSION cannot take place. If the GAME SESSION cannot take place due to either of these two scenarios, no refund, modification of the reservation, or compensation will be provided.
It should be noted that these conditions are clearly written as excerpts from the general conditions, highlighted and confirmed by
THE BUYER during the reservation.
The rooms "Chez Magien" and all missions in "Enigma City" are prohibited for those under 12 years old. The rooms "Dernière Demeure"
and "Oh No! Zombies" are strictly prohibited for those under 16 years old.
The access prohibition for PARTICIPANTS due to age limits
in these rooms does not entitle any compensation or refund.
