- Liability in Case of Delay or Cancellation: The BAZ’N CAMP association cannot be held responsible for delays, cancellations, or other disruptions of flights operated by airlines. The transportation conditions are governed by the terms and conditions of the concerned airline. In case of flight delay or cancellation, the BAZ’N CAMP association will do its best to assist participants in managing the consequences, but it cannot be held responsible for any additional costs (accommodation, meals, etc.) that may result.

12. Liability
The BAZ’N CAMP association strives to select reliable service providers (transport, accommodation, meals, etc.) to ensure the smooth running of the camps. However, in case of a problem or failure on the part of these providers (such as delays, cancellations, loss of luggage, accommodation conditions, etc.), the BAZ’N CAMP association cannot be held responsible for the resulting consequences. BAZ’N CAMP’s responsibility is limited to the proper organization of the camp as a whole and does not cover specific failures by independent providers. Any complaints regarding services provided by these third parties must be addressed directly to the concerned providers.
13. Liability in Case of Car Accident
Participants (or their legal representatives) agree to use public transport or the association’s vehicles to reach the locations of activities planned within the camp. The BAZ’N CAMP association cannot be held responsible for any car accident causing injuries or material damage occurring during the use of a vehicle owned by BAZ’N CAMP, a vehicle rented by a BAZ’N CAMP member, or a vehicle owned by a BAZ’N CAMP member. Furthermore, the vehicle driver, whether a BAZ’N CAMP member or a participant, cannot be held responsible for such accidents in the context of trips organized by BAZ’N CAMP. Participants acknowledge and accept that, in case of an accident occurring in these circumstances, financial and legal responsibility will be determined by the insurance policies taken out, not by the BAZ’N CAMP association or the vehicle driver. It is highly recommended that participants and their legal representatives take out personal insurance covering the risks related to vehicle travel, including civil liability, bodily injury, and material damage.
14. Individual Insurance Recommendation
Although the BAZ’N CAMP association offers insurance for participants covering certain risks during camps and travel, it is strongly recommended that participants take out additional individual insurance. This insurance should include accident coverage, repatriation, medical expenses, cancellation, luggage loss, and other incidents that could occur during the stay. The BAZ’N CAMP association cannot be held responsible for costs or consequences related to events not covered by the collective insurance set up by the association.
15. Participant’s Medical and Health Information
Before the camp, participants (or their legal representatives) must provide a medical certificate indicating that they are fit for intensive basketball training and competitions. They must also inform the BAZ’N CAMP association of any health issues, allergies, or specific needs that could impact their participation. In case of failure to disclose such information, the BAZ’N CAMP association cannot be held responsible for any health problems that arise during the camp. Participants (or their legal representatives) are responsible for ensuring that they bring their medication and medical equipment, if any, during the camp. The BAZ’N CAMP association cannot be held responsible for any consequences resulting from the omission or incorrect administration of medication by the participant.
16. Behavior and Expulsion
Participants, or their legal representatives, agree that any behavior disrupting the smooth running of the camp may result in expulsion without any right to a refund. Interruption of the stay due to injury or illness does not entitle the participant to any refund.
17. Organized Outings
Participants, or their legal representatives, agree to participate in the weekly outing organized by BAZ’N CAMP, specifically in the Calanques. This activity will take place one afternoon each week during the camp.
18. Emergency Medical Intervention
Participants, or their legal representatives, grant full authority to BAZ’N CAMP, through its director and instructors/escorts, to make necessary decisions in the event of an emergency medical intervention (surgery, X-ray, ultrasound, anesthesia, medical treatment). Participants will assume full financial responsibility for the incurred expenses and will reimburse the association at the end of the stay.
19. Administrative Formalities
The various administrative and health formalities required for participation in the camp, such as obtaining passports, ESTA, visas, vaccinations, or any other required authorization, are the responsibility and sole obligation of the participant (or their legal representatives). The participant is responsible for informing themselves with the relevant administrative authorities about the specific formalities applicable before departure.
In the event of failure to obtain the necessary documents or authorizations (passport, ESTA, visa, vaccinations, etc.), the BAZ’N CAMP association cannot be held responsible for the participant’s inability to attend the camp. No refunds will be granted in these circumstances, and the full amount due will remain payable.
20. Participant-Initiated Modifications
Any request to modify your order must be made by email to the following address: contact@bazncamp.com. The BAZ’N CAMP association will respond by email, with a modification request and the corresponding fees for acceptance.
After accepting the modification and payment of the corresponding fees, you will receive an email confirming the modification. If no confirmation email is issued by BAZ’N CAMP, the modification has not been taken into account. It is therefore your responsibility to ensure that the confirmation email is received. If not, please contact us by email at contact@bazncamp.com or at the following non-surcharged phone number +33 (0)749672251 to follow up on this modification.
21. Organizer-Initiated Cancellation
The participant is not entitled to any compensation if the cancellation of the trip is imposed by circumstances of force majeure, recurring climatic or natural events (monsoon, cyclone, etc.), or if the safety of participants necessitates the cancellation.
22. Exclusion of the Right of Withdrawal
In accordance with Article L221-28 of the French Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal does not apply to leisure services that must be provided on a specific date or period. Therefore, registrations for training camps organized by BAZ’N CAMP, whether in France or the United States, are not subject to the right of withdrawal. All registrations are final after order confirmation and payment.
This clause clearly informs participants about the absence of a right of withdrawal, which is essential to avoid any misunderstandings or disputes.
23. Legal Guarantee of Conformity and Against Hidden Defects
In accordance with legal provisions, the BAZ’N CAMP association reminds consumers that they benefit from the legal guarantee of conformity provided for in Articles L217-4 and following of the French Consumer Code, as well as the guarantee against hidden defects provided for in Articles 1641 and following of the French Civil Code. However, these guarantees apply only to physical products that may be sold by the association. The services, such as training camps, are not covered by these guarantees, but BAZ’N CAMP commits to providing the services as described and in accordance with the reasonable expectations of the participants.
24. Handling of Complaints
Complaints can be addressed to the Seller, using the contact details mentioned in the legal notices or by filling out the contact form in the Contact section, or via the contact email address contact@bazncamp.com.
