    Notes for Internal Legal Review

    This draft was prepared as a business-oriented operational base inspired by:

    existing MEJ terms, GDPR documentation, and industry competitors including Daytrip,

    but rewritten and structurally adjusted specifically for Europe Journey B2C operations. It should still be reviewed by a Czech/EU lawyer before final publication, especially regarding:

    consumer law compliance, cancellation rules, VAT wording, transportation liability, GDPR/cookie compliance, and jurisdiction-specific transport regulations.
