By signing and making payment for your non-refundable ticket, you unequivocally agree to this arrangement. Please be advised that this is not a luxury retreat service with 5-star accommodations unless an additional fee is paid to Red Eagle Universal Inc for such upgrades. The retreat primarily offers accommodations in the range of 3 and 4-star hotels, which are equivalent to or exceed the standards of similar star-rated hotels in the United States.

 

These selected hotels are characterized by their cleanliness, comfort, safety, and fully staffed facilities, making them highly recommended options that align with the budgetary considerations for our extensive retreats. We have intentionally maintained competitive retreat fees to ensure accessibility to a broader audience, providing the opportunity to travel with a world-renowned psychic medium/trance channel Riz Mirza/ Oriah Mirza to international destinations. It's important to note that the retreat primarily focuses on delivering a unique experience and the insights of the aforementioned individual, rather than specialized luxury services.

 

Should you desire accommodations with a higher star rating, you have the liberty to arrange for such lodging independently. However, it is imperative that any such modifications do not disrupt the group's itinerary or travel schedules, which have been thoughtfully planned in advance. Please be advised that additional costs associated with alternative accommodations will be your responsibility, and payment for these separate arrangements must be settled upon arrival.

We are a family-operated business that upholds the highest standards of integrity. In accordance with California legal standards and for the safety and well-being of our family and clients, we are unable to accept individuals who are actively experiencing severe mental instability, under the influence of drugs or alcohol, or taking psychotropic pharmaceuticals. Such circumstances present potential risks during our deep healing sessions, where family members are consistently present. We strongly advise individuals seeking healing services to consult with a qualified mental health professional for appropriate guidance.

​Past experiences have necessitated our refusal of service to individuals falling within these categories, as we have encountered situations that posed threats to our safety and business. It is essential to emphasize that we are not a mental health facility. If you are dealing with severe childhood abuse, we urge you to seek the assistance of a licensed therapist, as our services may entail the recall of past experiences, potentially impacting your stability. Our primary commitment is to protect our business and family, ensuring the safety and satisfaction of our valued clients while maintaining a stable environment.

Strict Adherence to Professional Boundaries:

The professional relationship established with your psychic, Riz, is governed by strict boundaries that are upheld both during and after your collaborative work. Based on substantial experience, we have found that the preservation of these boundaries is crucial to the retention of valuable insights, benefits, and accuracy of future readings.

WAR OR NATURAL DISASTERS

In the event of a war or natural disaster near or in the country of travel. 

Egypt 2023-early 2024:

Safety and security.  From Riz & Oriah:

Due to recent events in Israel, West Bank and the Gaza Strip, tensions could escalate with little notice and the security situation could deteriorate suddenly. Monitor developments, remain vigilant and follow the instructions of local authorities. Due to the war in Israel we have halted all plans and reserved activities until the US State Dept gives a clear advisory of safe travel. Israel is one hour by flight from Egypt and may experience terrorist or a refugee situation. We have no idea how long this war can last, and so to abide by all safety measures we will reschedule this Egypt retreat due to uncontrolled and unforeseen situation such as war. If you want to reschedule to another retreat that is compatible in cost in another country we can discuss this. We are too close to our retreat date to decide last minute. Preventative and safe measures have to be made to protect your safety and the rest of the travelers on your retreat based on travel guidelines and State Dept warnings.  ~Riz & Oriah

NEWS UPDATE: TOURISTS KILLED: On October 8, 2023, an Egyptian policeman shot and killed two Israeli tourists and their Egyptian guide at a tourist site in Alexandria.

October 8 – U.S. Embassy Warns Americans Traveling In Egypt Over Recent Deadly Shooting Related To War In Israel

U.S. embassy in Cairo has issued a warning to American travelers, advising them to exercise caution due to concerns that the recent deadly attack on 2 Israeli tourists in Alexandria might be linked to the ongoing hostilities between Israel and Palestinian militants.

Terrorists are very likely to try to carry out attacks in Egypt, according to the Foreign Office, and targets could include destinations popular with tourists. Most attacks are in the North Sinai region, but they may take place in other parts of the country too. The risk is heightened during public holidays and festivals, such as Christmas and Ramadan, and is particularly high around religious sites, large public gatherings and places frequented by foreigners. Stay vigilant and carry your photo ID with you at all times.

.........................................................

Essentially, these clauses are a broad disclaimer where Red Eagle Universal Inc absolves itself from various legal liabilities related to the performance and quality of their services and products.

Limitation of Liability.

 

Neither Party's liability for death or personal injury caused by its negligence or the negligence of its employees, agents, or subcontractors or for fraudulent misrepresentation is excluded or limited by this Agreement. Other than that as set out above, neither Party shall be liable (whether for breach of contract, negligence, or for any other reason) for any: (i) loss of profits; (ii) loss of sales; (iii) loss of revenue; (iv) loss or waste of management or staff time, or interruption to business; (v) indirect, consequential, or special loss; even if the Parties have been advised of the possibility of such losses. Red Eagle Universal Inc’s total liability under this Agreement shall not exceed the sum of Five Hundred Dollars ($500). The Parties hereby acknowledge that the mutual covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement reflect this allocation of risk.

The Force Majeure Clause-In summery from earlier:

The "Force Majeure" clause in an agreement is about excusing a party from fulfilling their contractual obligations due to events that are beyond their control. Here’s a breakdown of what this typically includes:

  1. Scope of Excuse: The clause specifically states that a party is not responsible for delays or failures in performing their duties if these issues are caused by events they cannot control. 

  2. Types of Force Majeure Events:

    • Natural Causes: Includes acts of God such as fires, floods, and other natural disasters.

    • Health Crises: Covers health emergencies like pandemics and epidemics.

    • Social and Political Events: Includes wars, terrorism, riots, and actions taken by government authorities.

    • Labor Disputes: Encompasses issues like strikes, lockouts, and slowdowns that affect the workforce.

    • Infrastructure Failures: Involves failures or interruptions in essential services such as telecommunications, data transmission, or significant shortages of necessary materials, labor, equipment, or transportation.

  3. Effect of the Clause: When such force majeure events occur, the affected party is temporarily relieved from fulfilling the affected obligations until the event is resolved or no longer inhibits their capabilities. This means they are legally protected from breach of contract claims for these failures or delays.

Choice of Law; Venue; Arbitration.

 

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without giving effect to any conflicts of laws principles. You, as the client, agree that any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof (collectively, “Disputed Claim(s)”) will be resolved, upon notification by you or Red Eagle Universal Inc (as applicable), exclusively and finally by binding arbitration.

 

You expressly waive the right to participate as a representative or member of any class of claimants pertaining to any Disputed Claims. The arbitration of the Action will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) pursuant to its Commercial Arbitration Rules (including, without limitation, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes, if applicable) (“AAA Rules”). Neither you nor we will have the right to litigate arbitrated Disputed Claims in court or to have a jury trial on Disputed Claims or to engage in pre-arbitration discovery, except as provided for in the AAA Rules or by written agreement of the parties involved. The arbitration may be conducted by telephone, online, or based solely upon written submissions.

A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written demand for arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules (“Demand for Arbitration”). The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the State of California and will be selected by the parties from the AAA's roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within ten (10) business days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules. An award of damages, if any, must be consistent with the terms of the Limitation of Liability section of this Agreement as to the types and the amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable.

  1. Limitation on Awards:

    • Types of Relief: The arbitrator can grant damages and other relief, but only in a manner consistent with the agreement, particularly the "Limitation of Liability" section, which may restrict the types and amounts of damages that can be awarded.

    • Declaratory and Injunctive Relief: Any declaratory or injunctive relief (orders to do or stop doing something) awarded by the arbitrator will be only for the benefit of the party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief for the claim made by that party.

This clause is designed to streamline dispute resolution, minimize litigation costs, and keep disputes private while ensuring that any proceedings are conducted fairly under predefined rules.
