: I. Preliminary Provisions

Article L.121-21-8 12° of the French Consumer Code provides for the absence of the right of withdrawal for "accommodation services, other than residential accommodation, transport of goods, car rentals, catering services or leisure activities which must be provided on a specific date or during a specific period." The services governed by these general terms and conditions therefore fall under Article L.121-21-8 12°.
