COVID-19 POLICY 

TERMS & REFUNDS
The Baja Rally organization places your safety higher than any other priority or objective including the protection and well-being of participants, staff, host citizens and the environment during our events. That does NOT include our passing judgement on the validity of any governmental agency's mandate(s), restriction(s) or regulation(s) resulting from the COVID-19 Virus that affect your travel to of from our events. 

Instead, we developed a relaxed, alternate refund policy that gives you as much relief and flexibility as we can realistically afford balanced with the legal and regulatory confines of your home residence or place of domicile. 

Very Simply, if you are legally prohibited by your government, or otherwise prevented by your employer, as a result of the COVID-19 virus, from traveling to or from our events during any time between 2-6 of our scheduled event, you will be financially relieved by our COVID-19 Refund Policy. 

Otherwise, as a condition of your application to enter our events, your deposits and/or payments are subject to our Standard Refund Policy defined in the section below.
