1. Who we are and what these terms cover
The events are organised by Biedrība "Dzintari Events" (an association), reg. no. 40008329613, Svīres iela 6 - 10, Rīga, LV-1076, Latvia, info@amberoweek.lv. These terms apply to accounts and entries made on amberoweek.lv for Amber O-Week 2027, the Dzintaru O-Cup, Lieldienu Balva, Dzintaru Trail-O and the trainings. By creating an account or sending an entry you accept them.
Classes, courses, fees, deadlines and the competition rules of each event are in its bulletin (see the O-Cup, Lieldienu Balva and Trail-O pages). The bulletins are part of these terms; where they say something more specific, the bulletin applies.
2. Your account
- Give correct details and keep them up to date in your profile.
- Keep your password to yourself. What is done with your account is your responsibility.
- Do not try to disrupt the site or get at other people's data. We may block an account that misuses the system.
3. Entering other people
- You may enter other people, for example family members or your club. By doing so you confirm that you are allowed to enter them, that their details are correct, and that they – or, for children, their parents or guardians – agree to their name, club, country, class and results being published.
- Children are entered by a parent, guardian or club, who takes responsibility for the child taking part.
4. Fees and payment
- Fees are set in the bulletins. The registration form shows what each person and item costs before you send the entry.
- When you send an entry, an invoice is issued and emailed to the address given in the invoice details. Pay it by bank transfer to the account on the invoice, quoting the invoice number, by the due date shown.
- We are not registered for VAT, so no VAT is added.
- Late entries, where a bulletin allows them, are accepted only for vacant places and at the late fee stated there.
5. Changing or cancelling an entry
- Until entries close – 21 March 2027, or 15 March 2027 for trainings and extra training maps – you can change or cancel your entry yourself in Your entries. If the amount changes, a new invoice replaces the old one. If you have already paid more than the new total, write to us.
- After entries close the entry can no longer be changed or cancelled, and the invoiced fee is due.
- Entries are for events on fixed dates, so there is no 14-day right of withdrawal (Cabinet of Ministers Regulation No. 255 of 20 May 2014 on distance contracts, point 22.12).
6. If an event is cancelled or changed
- If we cancel an event, the fees paid for it are refunded. We are not responsible for travel, accommodation or other costs.
- We are not liable for delays or changes caused by circumstances outside our control, such as extreme weather, natural disasters, emergencies or orders of the authorities. We will publish news about any change as soon as we can.
7. Health and safety
- Orienteering is a physical sport in natural terrain and carries a risk of injury. You take part at your own risk and confirm that your health and fitness allow it.
- Follow the competition rules, the bulletin and the instructions of the organisers. Parents and guardians are responsible for the children they enter.
8. Photos and video
The events are photographed and filmed. Pictures and video of participants, with names and results, may be published on our website and social media and by the press to report on and promote the events. If you have a specific reason to object to a picture of you, write to us and we will remove it from our channels. See the privacy notice.
9. Liability
As far as the law allows, we are not liable for indirect losses, for the site being temporarily unavailable, or for the content of other organisations' websites we link to. Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law does not allow to be limited.
10. Complaints and disputes
- Send complaints to info@amberoweek.lv, preferably within 15 days after the event. We reply within 15 days.
- These terms are governed by Latvian law. If we cannot agree, consumers may also turn to the Consumer Rights Protection Centre (www.ptac.gov.lv) or a Latvian court.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms; the new version applies from the day it is published here. An entry already sent keeps the terms that applied when it was sent.
