Sportsmen Terms

By accessing or using any of the Mallard Bay Outdoors Platform, you warrant and represent that you are at least eighteen (18) years of age and with the full authority, right, and capacity to enter into this agreement and abide by all of the terms and conditions of Terms. If you are not at least eighteen (18) years old, you are prohibited from both the access and usage of the Mallard Bay Outdoors Platform.

1.2 Searching. You can search for Outfitter Services by using criteria like the type of Outfitter Service, travel destination, travel dates, and number of Sportsmen in your booking. You can also use filters to refine your search results. Search results are based on their relevance to your search and other criteria. Relevance considers factors like price, availability, reviews, popularity, previous trips and saved Listings, and more.

1.3 Booking. When you book with an Outfitter, you are agreeing to pay all charges for your booking including the price included on the Listing (the “Listing Price”), applicable fees like Mallard Bay Outdoors's service fee, offline fees, taxes, and any other items identified during checkout (collectively, “Total Price”). You are also agreeing that Mallard Bay Outdoors Payments may charge and collect any security deposit identified during checkout. Additionally, when you book with an Outfitter you are agreeing to abide by any licensing requirements for said Experience, for example obtaining the applicable hunting or fishing license. When you receive the booking confirmation, a contract for Outfitter Services (sometimes called a reservation in these Terms) is formed directly between you and the Outfitter. The reservation cancellation policy and any other rules, standards, policies, or requirements identified in the Listing or during checkout form part of your contract with the Outfitter. Be aware that some Outfitters work with a co-Outfitter or as part of a team to provide their Outfitter Services.

1.4 Lodging Reservations. A Lodging reservation is a limited license to enter, occupy, and use the Lodging. The Outfitter retains the right to re-enter the Lodging during your stay, to the extent: (i) it is reasonably necessary, (ii) permitted by your contract with the Outfitter, and (iii) consistent with applicable law. If you stay past checkout, the Outfitter has the right to make you leave in a manner consistent with applicable law, including by imposing reasonable overstay penalties. You may not exceed the maximum number of allowed Sportsmen.

1.5 Reservations for Experiences and Other Outfitter Services. An Experience or other Outfitter Service reservation entitles you to participate in, attend, or use that Outfitter Service. You are responsible for confirming that you, and anyone you invite, meet minimum age, proficiency, fitness, or other requirements. You are responsible for informing the Outfitter of any medical or physical conditions, or other circumstances that may impact your ability to participate, attend, or use the Outfitter Service. Except where expressly authorized, you may not allow any person to join an Outfitter Service unless they are included as an additional Sportsmen during the booking process.

2. Cancellations, Refunds, and Booking Modifications

2.1 Cancellations, and Refunds. In general, if as a Sportsmen you cancel a reservation, the amount refunded to you is determined by the reservation cancellation policy that applies to that Listing. But, in certain situations in the sole discretion of Mallard Bay Outdoors, our Cancellation Policy may take precedence and determine what amount is refunded to you. If the Outfitter cancels, the amount refunded to you is determined by the reservation cancellation policy that applies to that Listing. If the Listing does not contain a cancellation policy, then our Cancellation Policy set forth below shall apply.

2.2 Cancellation Policy. A cancellation is deemed received if and only if submitted through the Mallard Bay Outdoors Platform cancellation workflow. As used in this Section, the term “rebooking credit” means a credit equal to the Total Price paid by a Sportsmen.

If a Sportsmen cancels at least 48 hours prior to the date of the applicable Experience, Lodging, or Guide, the Sportsmen will receive a full refund of the Listing Price. If a Sportsmen cancels at between 48-24 hours prior to the date of the applicable Experience, Lodging, or Guide, the Sportsmen will receive a partial refund equal to half of the Listing Price. If a Sportsmen cancels less than 24 hours prior to the date of the applicable Experience, Lodging, or Guide, the Sportsmen will not be entitled to any refund. Mallard Bay Outdoors reserves the right but not the obligation to offer a rebooking credit in lieu of a refund in any of the circumstances described above, including a less than 24 hours' notice cancellation.
If the Outfitter cancels, the Sportsmen will receive a full refund of the Listing Price, or at their option a rebooking credit.
In the case of inclement weather or other force majeure which requires cancellation of the Experience, Lodging, or Guide, the Sportsmen will be entitled to a rebooking credit.

Sportsmen and Outfitters are responsible for any booking modifications they agree to make via the Mallard Bay Outdoors Platform or direct Mallard Bay Outdoors customer service to make on their behalf (“Booking Modifications”), and agree to pay any additional amounts, fees, or taxes associated with any Booking Modification.

3. Your Responsibilities and Assumption of Risk.

3.1 Your Responsibilities. You are responsible and liable for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of anyone you invite to join or provide access to any Lodging, Experience, or other Outfitter Service. For example, this means: (i) you are responsible for leaving a Lodging (and related personal property) in the condition it was in when you arrived, and (ii) you must act with integrity, treat others with respect, and comply with applicable laws at all times. If you are booking for an additional Sportsmen who is a minor or if you bring a minor to an Outfitter Service, you must be legally authorized to act on behalf of the minor and you are solely responsible for the supervision of that minor.

3.2 Your Assumption of Risk. You acknowledge that many activities carry inherent risks and agree that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you assume the entire risk arising out of your access to and use of the Mallard Bay Outdoors Platform and any Mallard Bay Outdoors Materials and/or User Content (as defined in Section 5), including your stay at any Lodging, participation in any Experience, use of any other Outfitter Service, or any other interaction you have with other Users whether in person or online.

For example, Outfitter Services may carry risk of illness, bodily injury, disability, or death, and you freely and willfully assume those risks by choosing to participate in those Outfitter Services.

12. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement.

12.1 Governing Law. These Terms shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of State of Delaware without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in effect. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between us regarding the Mallard Bay Outdoors Platform and supersede and replace any prior agreements we might have had between us regarding the Mallard Bay Outdoors Platform.

12.2 Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement. The Users hereby agree that any and all disputes, claims or controversies between Users and Mallard Bay Outdoors, including but not limited to any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms shall be resolved through a consumer-friendly dispute resolution process. To that end, these Terms provide for a two-part process: (1) an informal negotiation directly with Mallard Bay Outdoors's customer service team, and any disputes which are not resolved by mutual agreement shall be resolved by (2) a binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). You and Mallard Bay Outdoors each retain the right to seek relief in small claims court as an alternative to arbitration.

12.3 Arbitration Agreement. For purposes of this Arbitration Agreement (“Agreement”) the term “parties” shall include Mallard Bay Outdoors, and the Users including both Sportsmen and Outfitter. In arbitration, each side in the dispute presents its case, including evidence, to a neutral third party called an “arbitrator,” rather than to a judge or jury. The parties agree that any arbitration shall be conducted before one neutral arbitrator selected by the parties and shall be conducted under the American Arbitration Association Arbitration Rules & Procedures then in effect. The parties agree that this Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1, et seq (“FAA”). The parties also understand and agree that Mallard Bay Outdoors is engaged in transactions involving interstate commerce.

The arbitration shall take place in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The parties are entitled to be represented by their own legal counsel in the arbitration proceeding and agree to maintain the proceedings and the award, including the hearing, as confidential, except as is otherwise required by court order, required by law, or as is necessary to confirm, vacate or enforce the award. The arbitrator shall have the authority to order such discovery by way of deposition, interrogatory, document production, or otherwise, as the arbitrator considers necessary for a full and fair exploration of the issues in dispute, consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration. The arbitrator is authorized to award any remedy or relief available under applicable law that the arbitrator deems just and equitable, including any remedy or relief that would have been available to the parties had the matter been heard in a court. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or limit the parties from seeking provisional remedies, such as injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall have the authority to provide for the award of attorney's fees if such award is separately authorized by applicable law. The decision of the arbitrator shall be in writing and shall provide the reasons for the award unless the parties agree otherwise. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator's decision is final and binding which means there will be no trial by a judge or jury, or ability to appeal the arbitrator's decision except as provided by the FAA or analogous state law.

12.4 Agreement to Arbitrate. You and Mallard Bay Outdoors mutually agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the applicability, breach, termination, validity, enforcement or interpretation thereof, or any use of the Mallard Bay Outdoors Platform, Outfitter Services, or any User Content (collectively, “Disputes”) will be settled by binding individual arbitration pursuant to this Agreement. If there is a dispute about whether this Arbitration Agreement can be enforced or applies to our Dispute, you and Mallard Bay Outdoors agree that the arbitrator will decide that issue.

12.5 Exceptions to Arbitration Agreement. You and Mallard Bay Outdoors each agree that the following causes of action and/or claims for relief are exceptions to the Arbitration Agreement and will be brought in a judicial proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction: (i) any claim or cause of action alleging actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party's copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights; (ii) any claim or cause of action seeking emergency injunctive relief based on exigent circumstances (e.g., imminent danger or commission of a crime, hacking, cyber-attack); or (iii) a request for the remedy of public injunctive relief. You and Mallard Bay Outdoors agree that the remedy of public injunctive relief will proceed after the arbitration of all arbitrable claims, remedies, or causes of action, and will be stayed pending the outcome of the arbitration pursuant to section 3 of the Federal Arbitration Act.

12.6 Arbitrator's Decision. The arbitrator's decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court with proper jurisdiction. The arbitrator may award any relief allowed by law or the AAA Rules, but declaratory or injunctive relief may be awarded only on an individual basis and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant's individual claim.

12.7 Jury Trial Waiver. You and Mallard Bay Outdoors acknowledge and intentionally agree that each are waiving the right to a trial by jury as to all arbitrable Disputes.

12.8 No Class Actions or Representative Proceedings. You and Mallard Bay Outdoors acknowledge and agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each are waiving the right to participate as a plaintiff or class Users in any purported class action lawsuit, class-wide arbitration, private attorney general action, or any other representative or consolidated proceeding. Unless agreed in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one party's claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If there is a final judicial determination that applicable law precludes enforcement of the waiver contained in this paragraph as to any claim, cause of action or requested remedy, then that claim, cause of action or requested remedy, and only that claim, cause of action or requested remedy, will be severed from this agreement to arbitrate and will be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction. In the event that a claim, cause of action or requested remedy is severed pursuant to this paragraph, then you agree that the claims, causes of action or requested remedies that are not subject to arbitration will be stayed until all arbitrable claims, causes of action and requested remedies are resolved by the arbitrator.

12.9 Severability. Except as provided in this Section, in the event that any portion of this Arbitration Agreement is deemed illegal or unenforceable, such provision will be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement will be given full force and effect.

12.10 Changes to Agreement to Arbitrate. If Mallard Bay Outdoors changes this Section after the date you last accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms), you may reject that change by sending us written notice (including by email) within 30 days of the date the change is effective. Rejecting a new change, however, does not revoke or alter your prior consent to any earlier agreements to arbitrate any Dispute between you and Mallard Bay Outdoors (or your prior consent to any subsequent changes thereto), which will remain in effect and enforceable as to any Dispute between you and Mallard Bay Outdoors.

12.11 Survival. This Section 15 will survive any termination of these Terms and will continue to apply even if you stop using the Mallard Bay Outdoors Platform or terminate your Mallard Bay Outdoors account.
