At the time we publish this information, we believe it to be valid. However, we have no control over the suppliers, and we therefore do not warrant or guarantee that their offers will not change or become unavailable. Nor are we responsible for their products, services or site content. Please see their sites for their most up-to-date offer information and all applicable terms and conditions.

You understand that, except for information, products or services clearly identified as being supplied by LB, LB does not operate, control or endorse any information, products or services on the Internet in any way. Except for LB-identified information, products or services, all information, products and services offered through the Site or on the Internet generally are offered by third parties that are not affiliated with LB.

You are responsible for implementing sufficient procedures and checkpoints to satisfy your particular requirements for accuracy of data input and output, and for maintaining a means external to the Site for the reconstruction of any lost data.

You assume total responsibility and risk for your use of the Site and the Internet.

LB makes no representations whatsoever about any other Web site which you may access through this one or which may link to the Site. When you access non-LB Web sites, please understand that they are independent from LB. LB’s inclusion of hyperlinks to such Web sites does not mean that LB controls, endorses or accepts any responsibility for the content or the use of such Web sites, or imply any association with their operators. If you decide to access third-party Web sites, you do so at your own risk.

10. Accounts

You must create an LuxuryBookings account to gain full access to LuxuryBookings’s services. You will be able to view a preview of the Site and then will be prompted to create an account or log in. You may never use another user’s account without permission. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your account, and you must keep your account password secure.

The user can also log in using Facebook Connect. You must have an active Facebook account in order to access the service through Facebook Connect, and you hereby represent and warrant that you have read and agreed to be bound by all applicable Facebook policies and will act in accordance with those policies, in addition to your obligations under this agreement.

11. Miscellaneous.

LB reserves the right to change the terms, conditions and notices under which the Site is offered. LB provides information on, accepts advertising from, and provides links to third-party vendors. Offers from these vendors that may be mentioned on the Site or in the Publications are often subject to change at any time, and may have many additional restrictions and limitations. Users of LB’s content agree to confirm all aspects of third-party offers with the offering party, and to hold LB (and its affiliates) harmless for any circumstances that may arise from interactions with a third party.

You agree that no agency, joint venture, partnership, employment or agency relationship exists between you and LB as a result of this agreement or use of the Site or the Publications.

LB’s performance of this agreement is subject to existing laws and legal process, and nothing contained in this agreement is in derogation of LB’s right to comply with law enforcement requests or requirements relating to your use of the Site or information provided to or gathered by LB with respect to such use. To the extent allowed by applicable law, you agree that you will bring any claim or cause of action arising from or relating to your access or use of the Site within one (1) year from the date on which such claim or action arose or accrued or such claim or cause of action will be irrevocably waived.

If any part of this agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations set forth above, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of the agreement shall continue in effect.

This agreement (and any other terms and conditions referenced herein) constitutes the entire agreement between the user and LB with respect to the Site and it supersedes all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals, whether electronic, oral or written, between the user and LB with respect to the Site. A printed version of this agreement and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. Fictitious names of companies, products, people, characters, and/or data mentioned on the Site are not intended to represent any real individual, company, product, or event.

Although most travel, including travel to international destinations, is completed without incident, travel to certain destinations may involve greater risk than others. LB urges passengers to investigate and review travel prohibitions, warnings, announcements and advisories issued by the United States Government and destination country governments prior to booking travel to international destinations. Information on conditions in various countries and the level of risk associated with travel to particular international destinations can be found at www.state.gov, www.tsa.gov, www.dot.gov, www.faa.gov, www.cdc.gov, www.treas.gov/ofac and www.customs.gov.

BY LISTING INFORMATION RELEVANT TO TRAVEL TO PARTICULAR INTERNATIONAL DESTINATIONS, LB DOES NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THAT TRAVEL TO SUCH POINTS IS ADVISABLE OR WITHOUT RISK, AND IS NOT LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OR LOSSES THAT MAY RESULT FROM TRAVEL TO SUCH DESTINATIONS.

Any rights not expressly granted herein are reserved.

LuxuryBookings’s failure to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any provision of this agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any provision or right. Neither the course of conduct between the parties nor trade practice shall act to modify any provision of this agreement. LuxuryBookings may assign its rights and duties under this agreement to any party at any time without notice to you.
