Terms and conditions

Please, read carefully this text before booking with us.

1. 1. A reservation is only confirmed once you have paid the deposit and it has been received and confirmed by Spain Photo Hides (e-mail).
2. 2. Deposits paid are not refundable if the cancellation of the reservation is not advised at least with 10 days before the date agreed for the activity. All return costs are paid by the person who requests it.
3. 3. If the activity (use of a hide, a workshop, etc.) is canceled by Spain Photo Hides, whatever the reason, all amounts received as deposit or reservation will be totally refunded.
4. 4. Spain Photo Hides does everything possible to make good hides and scenes to photograph wild animals, but participants or photographers should be aware that its activity depends greatly on the time and weather conditions, which makes their attraction to the feeders out of our control. Therefore we can not guarantee the results (to make photographs of specific species) to 100%. However, we are always willing to inform photographers about the likelihood of seeing and photographing a particular specie in any particular moment. Also, we will always keep in our web reports of the results of previous sessions or previous workshops.
5. 5. For workshops, organized activities or tours, Spain Photo Hides reserves the right to modify the program if the circumstances mentioned previously happen.
6. 6. During the development of any photographic activities organized by Spain Photo Hides, participants must behave in a right way and follow the instructions of the organizers, and they must avoid disturbing animals or anyone they share the activity with. In case of using hides, is very important not to leave them before the guide gets there and authorizes the exit. You should be aware that an incorrect way of getting out the hide may result in temporary or permanent abandonment of the feeder by the animal that uses it, which will damage the work of other photographers who go later to the hide, and at the same time, serious economic damages to Spain Photo Hides, which could be legally reclaimed if bad faith in the action of the photographer is apreciated.
7. 7. To keep an eye on the compliance of the previous rule, Spain Photo Hides reserves the right to install security cameras around the hides. Photographers are advised of that when they book these hides and they expressly accept it even if it could be assumed as a slight interference in their right to privacy or self image.
8. 8. The amounts agreed for the use of a particular hide must be paid by the photographer who uses the hide before the realization of the activity, either by transfer or in cash before the entrance to the hide concerned. The amounts paid if you did previously a reservation will be discounted of the price.
9. 9. Spain Photo Hides only offers its hides when we are sure that the animals are usually coming to their perches and feeders. In case of the animals do not appear in the place of the hide contracted, for the obvious reason that they are wild animals with unpredictable behavior, the amount agreed will not be charged (would be returned if it had been paid), charging only the amount of 60 euros in overhead costs for the service.
10. 10. Spain Photo Hides (or the company Anades Nature and Sustainable Development S.L.) is not responsible for any loss or damage to personal or photographic equipment of the contractors, nor personal accident or injury. For rent hides or take part in any of the workshops or tours of Spain Photo Hides you must be covered by adequate insurance for the duration of the visit and the contracted activities. The insurance should cover cancellation, medical and emergency expenses (including repatriation), personal injuries resulting from accidents and even death. Additionally, you must be insured against loss and damage to baggage, your personal objects and even from potential delays or cancellations of flights.

1. 1. DO NOT leave the hide in any way without previous advice to the guide. You can do it talking on the walkie-talkie or cell phone (number: 34 + 699 919 284). The success or failure of the photographers who come after you will depend on your behavior.
