1. Rental Item

You acknowledge and agree that LightPocket reserves the right to limit the number of Rental Items that you may rent at any given time. You may rent Rental Items for the rental periods designated by LightPocket ("Rental Periods"). You agree to inspect the Rental Items for integrity upon receipt and to notify us immediately in case a defect is detected.


2. Returning Rental Item

By renting an item through LightPocket, you are agreeing to return it on or before the Rental Due Date. "Rental Due Date" is specified in the confirmation email or the rental application form sent by us and may be changed by your extension requests.


3. Extension

You may extend the Rental Period of Items by paying additional extension fees. You are responsible for requesting an extension over online before the Rental Due Date.


4. Checkout Process

You agree to pay all fees and applicable taxes charged to you in connection with Rental Items with a valid credit card accepted by LightPocket (currently Visa, MasterCard, and American Express).
