Documento SERVICE PROVISION CONTRACT BETWEEN RUANA TOURS SAS AND THE CLIENT.
GENERAL CONDITIONS.
These "General Conditions" are governed by the rules of the civil, commercial and administrative
regulations of the Republic of Colombia, especially Law 300/96 and regulatory decree 1075/97.
RUANA TOURS SAS, identified with NIT No. 901788547-7 and RNT No. 197990, hereinafter referred
to as the “TRAVEL AGENCY”, declares that it acts as an intermediary between THE CUSTOMER and
the entities or persons in charge of providing air or land transportation, accommodation, food,
tourist services or any other contracted service. In this sense, the “TRAVEL AGENCY” is not
responsible for the failure of said entities in the execution of their obligations, nor for unforeseen
events caused by strikes, weather conditions, delays, earthquakes, quarantines, as well as for
material, personal or moral damages that the passenger may suffer due to loss, damage or theft of
luggage, nor for accidents, illnesses or deaths.
THE CLIENT knows and accepts that any claim must be made directly to the person in charge of AA
providing the contracted services, since the former and not the “TRAVEL AGENCY” is responsible for
the satisfaction of the service.
DISCLAIMER CLAUSE
The following content must be taken into account before deciding to purchase services, since it is
based on it that the services are provided and the rights and obligations of both RUANA TOURS SAS
and THE CLIENT are established, resulting in binding from the moment that THE CLIENT cancels all
or part of the services marketed by RUANA TOURS SAS.
The responsibility of RUANA TOURS SAS regarding the quality of the service is limited solely and
exclusively to the terms of each offer, taking into account the specific conditions of each provider,
which are made known in a complete and timely manner to THE CLIENT for their understanding,
accepting them in full with the first payment made for the services acquired.
The responsibility for the care and custody of personal items lies exclusively with THE CLIENT, unless
they have been made available to the service provider for their care. If they carry valuable items,
THE CLIENT must inform the service provider directly, in order to take all necessary care measures
to protect said items; otherwise, any loss or damage suffered by said items must be assumed in their
entirety by THE CLIENT without the possibility of requesting compensation or indemnification for
damages.
If THE CLIENT fails to comply by not showing up or not using the agreed services, whatever the cause,
the tourist service provider may, at its discretion, demand payment of the full price or established
rate or retain the deposit or advance payment previously received from THE CLIENT, a situation
which THE CLIENT is aware of and accepts from now on. The foregoing is applicable unless the
specific product or service purchased by THE CLIENT has different penalty limits, in which case the
penalties, cancellation policies, no-show policies, etc. imposed by the contracted operator will
apply, to which THE CLIENT is bound from the moment of making the reservation.
RUANA TOURS SAS assumes no responsibility for force majeure events such as accidents, strikes,
riots, earthquakes, climatic or natural phenomena, security conditions, political factors, withdrawal
of the traveler due to conduct that threatens the realization of the trip, denial of entry permits,
decision of the destination country to prevent the entry or mobility of the traveler, death, health
issues, acts of third parties, and any other event beyond the control of the "TRAVEL AGENCY", which
could affect the execution or continuity of the trip.
For the respective refunds of money, the procedure will be governed by the law and the policies
imposed by each service provider as appropriate.
RUANA TOURS SAS is also not responsible for personal or additional expenses to the specific plan
incurred by THE CLIENT and the responsibility for damages or losses generated by his/her own
incompetence, negligence, or fault will be his/her responsibility.
From now on, THE CLIENT authorizes RUANA TOURS SAS to make changes to the planned itineraries,
travel dates, hotels of similar or higher category, transportation and any others that may be
necessary in order to contribute to the development of the trip, either before the start or during the
trip.
RUANA TOURS SAS and the service providers reserve the right to expel THE CLIENT when his/her
conduct, which is disciplinarily and/or criminally reprehensible, creates inconveniences in the
normal execution of the service and causes disturbance to third parties; it is understood that the
conduct is reprehensible when it violates morality, public order and good customs; in such cases,
THE CLIENT must assume at his/her own risk and expense the expenses generated by the exclusion
from the program and will be the sole and exclusive responsible party for the claims for
compensation and/or indemnification of damages made by affected third parties, including the
service provider, holding RUANA TOURS SAS and the service providers harmless in such situation.
Program prices are subject to change without prior notice due to fluctuations in international
currencies, government decisions, changes in taxes, fees or contributions that tax the services
provided, among others, situations beyond the control of RUANA TOURS SAS and only the prices in
effect at the time of issuance of airline tickets and vouchers for other services will apply, upon
confirmation of purchase.
Advertising prices and quotes may fluctuate due to the changing availability of service providers,
without liability of RUANA TOURS SAS for not having any interference.
The price announced in a currency other than the Colombian peso for land portion services may be
paid in foreign currency; it may also be converted to Colombian pesos according to the TRM on the
date of payment. In both forms of payment, the card transaction fee plus VAT will be added to the
value of the reported and settled price. The price announced in a currency other than the Colombian
peso for airline tickets may be paid in foreign currency; it may also be converted to Colombian pesos
according to the TRM on the date of payment.
RUANA TOURS SAS will inform you in a timely manner about the documentation and health
requirements required for each destination.
The plans marketed do not include the processing of passports, visas or permits to leave the country
and/or enter another State, and it is the exclusive responsibility of THE CLIENT to comply with the
documentation requirements necessary to make the trip, as well as with the health requirements
such as, for example, vaccination; therefore, the "TRAVEL AGENCY." recommends that THE CLIENT
take all documentation precautions before acquiring tourist services, since neither it nor the
operators are responsible for the non-execution of the services when it is attributable to THE CLIENT
for this issue.
In the event of providing advice for the issuance of the documentation required for the trip, RUANA
TOURS SAS is not responsible for the results of the procedure, since the granting of a passport, visa,
or any type of entry permit, exit from the country, transit in another country, among others, is a
discretionary decision of the competent government authority that issues them.
It is the sole and exclusive responsibility of THE CLIENT to carry and display at all times the
documents required to make the trip and to guarantee the stay at the destination, because the
authorities so require; it will also be his/her responsibility to carry authentic documents, to avoid
any irregularities with the national authorities.
The exercise of the rights of withdrawal and cancellation is carried out in accordance with the
corresponding regulations on aviation, namely, the Colombian aeronautical regulations “RAC 3” and
the “Consumer Statute” Law 1480 of 2011.
Payments for services that THE CLIENT stops taking by personal decision once the trip has begun will
not be refundable.
Refunds, if applicable, will be made within 30 calendar days following the request, and based on the
policies adopted by each service provider. However, if the process takes longer due to reasons
beyond the control of RUANA TOURS SAS, it will not recognize any interest on the amounts to be
refunded.
In order to strengthen protection, the user may purchase insurance policies that contribute to the
success of his or her trip. These products are subject to insurance and/or travel assistance contracts
as appropriate, and will be executed in accordance with the policies, terms and conditions of the
insurance agents.
RUANA TOURS SAS, in its capacity as an intermediary “TRAVEL AGENCY”, will ensure that the
provision of services operated by third parties is optimal and of quality as offered, providing THE
CLIENT with all the collaboration and management to send to the providers the requests, complaints
or claims that they wish to raise, before, during and after the execution of the services. However, in
the event of having any difficulty at the site of the service, THE CLIENT must notify the service
provider directly and immediately, so that the provider can resolve the nonconformity expeditiously.
The foregoing without prejudice to the notification that the user must make to RUANA TOURS SAS
for the same.
The exploitation and abuse of minors are punishable by imprisonment, according to Colombian laws
numbers 599 of 2000 and 679 of 2001. The trafficking and commercialization of wild fauna and flora,
regional and/or national cultural assets, narcotic substances, acts of discrimination, among other
behaviors that alter responsible and sustainable tourism, are prohibited.
THE CLIENT knows and accepts that, in the event of government provisions aimed at regulating the
effects of Covid-19 and its social treatment, he/she must comply in a mandatory and uninterrupted
manner with all biosafety protocols established by both RUANA TOURS SAS and the operators on
site, where clear rules and guidelines are established regarding self-care, social distancing and rules
for sharing spaces during certain contracted activities.
Responsibility for health and self-care is exclusively THE CLIENT'S, who will assume all risks
associated with the pathology due to not complying with the protocols and measures imposed for
personal and third-party care.
In the event of disregarding the biosafety regulations established by each provider, the operators
may exclude THE CLIENT from the services and refuse to link him/her to the plans and programs,
without this situation generating on the part of the "TRAVEL AGENCY" and/or the operator, a duty
of indemnity or compensation for the user. If THE CLIENT fails to comply with the biosafety
protocols, he/she will be subject to the legal consequences that this implies according to the
legislation of each destination, keeping RUANA TOURS SAS and the operator harmless in this regard,
and being responsible for the defense costs that may be required, as well as the fines or sanctions
that may be imposed by the competent authority.
In the event that THE CLIENT shows symptoms associated with Covid – 19, he/she must adhere to
the specifications of each provider, which include mandatory preventive isolation and immediate
reporting to a medical center, in which case he/she must assume all expenses generated by
accommodation, food, date changes with airlines, medical treatment, etc., for the 14 days or more
that he/she must remain in mandatory isolation according to government biosafety protocols.

PRIVACY POLICY AND PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS.
Aware of the importance of the protection and proper management of personal information
provided by its owners, RUANA TOURS SAS, who acts as the controller of the information received,
has designed this policy and procedures that together allow for appropriate use of your personal

In accordance with the provisions of Article 15 of the Colombian Political Constitution, which

and rectify personal data that exists about them in databases and files, both public and private,
there is an obligation with the management and treatment of information that recipients of
personal information must take into account.
This right has been developed through the issuance of Statutory Law 1581 of 2012 and the
Regulatory Decree 1377 of 2013, based on which RUANA TOURS SAS, as the CONTROLLER of the
personal data it receives, handles and processes the information and thus proceeds to issue this

establishes relations of any kind.

treatment of the personal data delivered or made available.
