CONTENT
Some of the Content that refers to city attractions, things to do, hotel accommodations,
restaurants and other services is the property of, and is supplied by, third party
suppliers that are not under our control. We do not independently verify, and do
not guarantee, the accuracy of the information that we receive from such third parties.
All information, prices and availability are subject to change without notice.
LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES
Our Website and Booking Engine may contain hyperlinks to websites operated by third
parties. We do not control such websites and will not be responsible for their content
or for any breach of contract or any intentional or negligent action on the part
of such third parties, which results in any loss, damage, delay or injury to you

TAX RECOVERY CHARGE
The tax charge on Save Rate hotel transactions is a recovery of all applicable transaction
taxes (e.g. sales and use, occupancy, room tax, excise tax, value added tax, etc.)
that we collect from customers and pay our vendors (such as hotels, etc.) in connection
with our customers' purchasers. We are not the vendor collecting and remitting such
tax to the applicable tax authorities. The vendors bill us for applicable taxes
and we remit such amounts directly to our vendors. We are not a co-vendor associated
with the vendor with whom we book or reserve our customers' travel arrangements.
Taxability and the appropriate tax rate vary greatly by location. The actual amount
paid to a vendor may vary from the tax recovery charge, depending upon the rates,
taxability or other factors in effect at the time of the actual use of a given travel
service by our customers. We do not incur the cost of sales tax from vendors located
in Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon, as these states do not impose
a sales tax. Also, certain jurisdictions impose a hotel occupancy tax or other type
of transaction tax upon the renting of a hotel room, an automobile, etc. The type
of tax collected by a vendor will vary by service and location.
TERMS OF SERVICE - SAVE RATE HOTEL RESERVATIONS ONLY
Credit cards for Save Rate hotel reservations will be charged the full amount for
the reservation including all taxes and applicable service fees at the time of booking.
Reservations may be changed or cancelled anytime within the appropriate hotel's
cancellations policy period at a charge indicated on the applicable website. Upon
arrival and check in at a hotel, you are responsible for the entire length of stay.
No refunds or credits will be issued for any nights reserved but not consumed. Cancellations
made after the hotel cancel policy period has lapsed or no shows will be charged
according to the hotel's cancellation policy (although the cancellation charge usually
equals one night's room rate plus tax, you should look to the specific hotel's policies
for the exact charges that you may incur). No contract will exist between you and
us (or our affiliates) with respect to Save Rate hotel reservations until we have
sent you an email with a pre-payment voucher that you will present to the appropriate
hotel at the time of your check in. There may still be times when a hotel refuses
to confirm a reservation. In this case we will re-accommodate to a similar property
or refund all monies charged. Loyalty program award points cannot be guaranteed
when booking a Save Rate hotel.
CURRENCY CONVERTER
Currency rates are based on various publicly available sources and should be used
as guidelines only. Rates are not verified as accurate, and actual rates may vary.
Currency quotes are not updated every day. Check the date on the Currency Converter
for the day that currency was last updated. Neither we, nor our affiliates, warrant
or guarantee the accuracy of any such information. When using this information for
any financial purpose, we advise you to consult a qualified professional to verify
the accuracy of the currency rates. We do not authorize the use of this information
for any purpose other than personal use and hereby prohibit, to the maximum extent
allowable the resale, redistribution, and use of this information for commercial
purposes.
INDEMNIFICATION
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold us and our affiliates, and any of our or
our affiliates' officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns,
harmless from and against any liability, claim, loss, expense, cause of action or
demand, including without limitation reasonable legal and accounting fees arising
directly or indirectly in connection with any breach by you of any term, condition,
representation, warranty or covenant contained herein or otherwise resulting from
your use of our Website or Booking Engine.
CONTRACT INFORMATION
No contract will exist as between you and us (or any of our affiliates) for the
sale of any product or service other than Save Rate hotel reservations unless and
until we accept your reservation by email confirming your reservation or purchase
and issue you a unique confirmation code. Acceptance will be deemed complete and
will be deemed to be effectively communicated to you for all purposes at the time
that we send the email to you whether or not you receive the email.
