10. Related Rental Service Terms

This Cookie Policy governs the use of cookies on the Website and does not replace the rental agreement or separate Terms and Conditions applicable to vehicle hire. However, because cookies support online reservations, users should be aware of the following general points often connected with the booking process:

Booking and Cancellation

Reservation forms, availability tools, and payment pages may use cookies or session technologies to complete a booking. Cancellations, amendments, refunds, and no-show rules are governed by the rental terms provided at the time of reservation. In general, the applicable cancellation conditions may vary depending on the selected rate, booking channel, season, and whether a prepayment or deposit has been made.

Age and Licence Requirements

To rent a vehicle, drivers are typically required to meet minimum age and driving licence conditions stated in the rental terms. Additional restrictions or surcharges may apply to young drivers or to certain vehicle categories. Cookies may temporarily retain booking input relating to driver age or selection criteria to facilitate the reservation process, but they do not replace the need for documentary verification at vehicle collection.

Liability and Vehicle Use

Use of the Website does not limit the responsibilities set out in the rental agreement, including obligations relating to authorized drivers, safe use of the vehicle, fuel, fines, damage, insurance exclusions, and return conditions. Any liability arising from vehicle use, accidents, late return, or breach of rental terms is governed by the signed rental contract and applicable law.

11. Data Protection and Privacy

Where cookies involve the processing of personal data, rentcarinibiza.com will process that data in accordance with applicable privacy legislation, including data protection rules in force within the European Economic Area and Spain, where relevant. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data collected through our Website.

Personal data collected via cookies may be shared with service providers acting on our behalf for website hosting, analytics, marketing, customer support, payment processing, or booking administration, subject to appropriate contractual and legal safeguards. We do not use cookie-derived data for purposes incompatible with those described in this policy.
