Terms of Service — Chauffora LLC

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the website at chauffora.net and any transportation services provided by Chauffora LLC ("Chauffora," "we," "us," or "our"). By submitting a booking request or completing a ride, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

Please read them carefully. If you do not agree, do not use our services.

01 Agreement to Terms

By accessing our website, submitting a quote request, or confirming a booking, you represent that: (a) you are at least 18 years of age; (b) you have the legal authority to enter into this agreement; and (c) all information you provide is accurate and complete.

These Terms apply to all passengers travelling in a Chauffora vehicle, regardless of who made the booking.

02 Our Services

Chauffora LLC provides licensed luxury ground transportation in Los Angeles and Orange County, California, under CPUC TCP permit #38283-A. We operate the following service types:

  • Airport transfers — pickups and drop-offs at LAX, SNA (John Wayne), and BUR (Hollywood Burbank)
  • Corporate / executive travel — point-to-point and hourly services for business clients
  • Hourly charter — as-directed service billed by the hour with a minimum engagement period
  • Wedding & special events — scheduled services for ceremonies, receptions, proms, and private events
  • Point-to-point — direct trips between any two locations within our service area

We reserve the right to decline any booking at our discretion, including requests that conflict with driver safety, legal requirements, or our service capabilities.

03 Booking & Confirmation

How bookings work

Submitting a quote form on our website is a request, not a confirmed booking. A booking is confirmed only when you receive written confirmation (via text or email) from a Chauffora dispatcher, including your flat-rate price, vehicle, and chauffeur details.

Advance notice

  • Standard rides & airport transfers — minimum a few hours in advance; 24 hours recommended
  • Weddings, proms & special events — 1–3 months in advance to guarantee vehicle availability
  • Same-day bookings — subject to fleet availability; contact us directly at (213) 330-5990

Quote guarantee

We aim to respond to all booking requests within 15 minutes. If a senior dispatcher does not contact you within 15 minutes of your submission, your first 30 minutes of service are complimentary. This guarantee applies during business hours and is subject to availability.

Airport pickup procedure

For domestic arrivals, your chauffeur will wait up to 30 minutes from your actual wheels-down time. For international arrivals, up to 60 minutes of complimentary wait time is included. Additional wait time beyond these windows may incur a charge, disclosed at the time of booking.

Your chauffeur will meet you at a pre-agreed location. For terminal meet-and-greet service, please request this at the time of booking (availability varies by terminal).

04 Pricing & Payment

Flat-rate pricing

All standard routes are priced at a flat rate. The price confirmed at the time of booking is the price you pay — there is no surge pricing, hidden toll charges, or metered billing.

Off-hours fee

A modest off-hours fee may apply for rides scheduled between midnight and 5:00 AM. This will always be disclosed before you confirm your booking.

Additional charges

The following may result in additional charges beyond your quoted price:

  • Wait time beyond complimentary windows (airport or otherwise)
  • Cleaning fees for vehicle damage caused by passengers (see Section 6)
  • Additional stops added after confirmation
  • Tolls or parking charges for routes where these cannot reasonably be pre-estimated (always disclosed if known in advance)

Payment

Payment is collected via card on file at the time of booking confirmation. Payment is processed through our booking platform (Moovs / Stripe). You will not be charged until your ride is complete, except for deposits on special event bookings where noted. Receipts are sent automatically upon completion.

Corporate account clients with approved monthly billing are subject to separate invoicing terms agreed at account setup.

05 Cancellation Policy

Plans change — we understand that. Here is how our cancellation policy works:

Cancellation Timing
Outcome
24 hours or more before pickup
FULL REFUND — no charge
Less than 24 hours before pickup
CANCELLATION FEE — up to 50% of the booked fare
No-show (driver arrives, client absent)
FULL CHARGE — 100% of booked fare
Wedding / special event (any time)
Deposit is non-refundable; balance refunded if cancelled 7+ days prior

How to cancel

To cancel or reschedule, call or text us at (213) 330-5990 or email Chauffora@gmail.com. Cancellations are confirmed when you receive a written acknowledgement from our team.

Rescheduling

You may reschedule your ride at no charge with at least 24 hours' notice, subject to vehicle availability. Rescheduling within 24 hours is treated as a new booking.

On-Time Guarantee If your chauffeur does not arrive by the confirmed pickup time, we credit your first 30 minutes of service. This guarantee applies to circumstances within our control and does not cover delays caused by extreme traffic events, road closures, or acts of nature.

06 Passenger Conduct

All passengers are expected to behave in a lawful and respectful manner. The following are prohibited in all Chauffora vehicles:

  • Smoking or vaping of any substance
  • Consumption of alcohol by anyone under 21
  • Physical or verbal abuse directed at the chauffeur or other passengers
  • Illegal substances
  • Behaviour that poses a risk to the safety of the driver or other road users

The chauffeur reserves the right to terminate a trip at any time if a passenger's conduct is unsafe, abusive, or in violation of these Terms. In such cases, the full fare remains due and no refund will be issued.

Vehicle damage

Passengers are liable for any damage caused to the interior or exterior of a Chauffora vehicle beyond normal wear and tear. A cleaning fee of up to $300 may be charged for soiling (including vomiting). Structural damage will be assessed and invoiced at the cost of repair. You authorise us to charge any such fees to the card on file.

Seatbelts

Seatbelts must be worn by all passengers at all times while the vehicle is in motion, as required by California law.
