You further acknowledge that you have no right to have access to any aspect of the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms in source-code form.

If you have reason to believe that your copyright is being infringed by any content on the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms, please send a written notification of such infringement to the address stated at the end of Terms marked for the attention of our ‘General Counsel’.
Information accuracy and warranty disclaimer
Your use of the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms is entirely at your own risk.
Although we enforce strict ‘price accuracy’ policies with all partners who provide us with travel data and endeavour to ensure that the content displayed on or via the Trekhunt Services and Platforms is up to date and accurate, we cannot guarantee the reliability or accuracy of such content. We provide the Trekhunt Services and Platforms on an ‘as is’ basis and expressly disclaim all warranties, conditions and guarantees of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to, the implied warranties of title, non-infringement, merchantability and accuracy, as well as any warranties implied by usage of trade, course of dealing or course of performance. To the extent permitted by law, we make no representations and do not warrant to you that the Trekhunt Services and Trekhunt Platforms (a) are accurate, complete or up to date; (b) will always be available; (c) will meet your expectations; or (d) are secure or are free from errors, faults, defects, viruses or malware.
Making booking requests based on Trekhunt
Trekhunt is not a travel agent and is not responsible for providing any travel options displayed via the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms or for setting or controlling the prices we display. Any Third Party Travel Products which you find and/or request to book via the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms are provided by independent travel agents, travel operators or other third parties (“Travel Providers”).
Trekhunt facilitates your search to find the tours and/or activities you are looking for and your bookings with Travel Providers but is not responsible and has no liability to you in respect of such bookings. The identity of the relevant Travel Provider and - if necessary - the terms and conditions applicable to your booking with them (“Travel Provider Terms”) will be notified to you at the time of booking and you should ensure that you read and fully understand them before completing your booking.
The Travel Provider Terms will set out what rights you have against the Travel Provider and will explain their liability to you in the event of anything going wrong.
You agree to comply in full with all applicable Travel Provider Terms. You acknowledge that breaching Travel Provider Terms could result in the cancellation of tickets or reservations, revocation of loyalty points and other benefits, and additional charges.
Where you have used the Trekhunt Platforms to book two or more related travel products within a 24-hour period (for example a tour and, separately (within 24 hours of the first booking) an activity) then this may be classified as a “Linked Travel Arrangement” depending on where you are located and the applicable consumer protection laws that apply. Where a Linked Travel Arrangement has been created, you will not have the same level of consumer protection that you would get where you book both a tour and an activity together through one single agent (where you may then get the benefits that apply to booking holiday packages). This means that you need to rely on each individual provider to perform their services, and do not have legal recourse to the organiser or the retailer of a package. In the event of the insolvency of one of the providers involved in the Linked Travel Arrangement, the protections available under the EU Package Travel Regulations will not apply.
Limitations and exclusions of liability
These Terms set out the full extent of Trekhunt’s obligations and liabilities in respect of the Trekhunt Services and Platforms.
Trekhunt has no responsibility whatsoever for any arrangements you make with any third party (nor its performance), as a result of your use of the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms (including, without limitation, any Travel Provider). In the event that you encounter any problems with any booking you make or attempt to make via Trekhunt, you acknowledge that you should resolve that issue with the relevant Travel Provider and that your sole remedy in such circumstances, including any refund, lies with the relevant Travel Provider and not with Trekhunt. Where the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms contain links to other sites and resources provided by third parties, these links are provided for your information only. We have no control over the contents of those sites or resources and accept no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them.
You may see advertising material submitted by third parties on the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms. Each individual advertiser is solely responsible for the content of its advertising material and Trekhunt accepts no responsibility for the content of advertising material, including, without limitation, any error, omission or inaccuracy therein.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we (together with our officers, directors, employees, representatives, affiliates, providers and third parties) do not accept any liability for (a) any inaccuracies or omissions in the content displayed on or via the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms; or (b) any act of god, accident, delay or any special, exemplary, punitive, indirect, incidental or consequential loss or damage of any kind (including, without limitation, lost profits or lost savings), whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, incurred by you arising out of or in connection with your access to, use of, or inability to access or use, the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms or any content contained provided therein.
Subject to these Terms and to the extent permitted by law, our maximum aggregate liability to you arising out of or in connection with these Terms or your access to, use of, or inability to access or use, the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms shall be limited to the sum of €20 (twenty EUR).
Nothing in these Terms shall limit our fraud or willful fraudulent misrepresentation or any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.
Your liability to us
Subject to these Terms, you will be responsible and liable to us for all actions, claims, proceedings, costs, damages, losses and expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees) incurred by us or our group, and each of our officers, directors, employees and agents, arising out of, or in any way connected with your use of the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms or breach of these Terms.
Termination
Trekhunt may in its absolute discretion immediately terminate any agreement with you under these Terms at any time upon notice to you and/or, if you have a log-in account, by cancelling your access to your account. Trekhunt can also disable any User Content you have uploaded or displayed via Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms. Trekhunt may suspend your use of the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms without notice at any time, without incurring any liability to you whatsoever.
General provisions
You acknowledge that your unauthorised use of the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms may result in irreparable damage and injury to Trekhunt and/or its affiliates or licensors for which money damages would be inadequate. Consequently, in the event of such unauthorised use, we and our affiliates and/or licensors (as applicable) shall have the right, in addition to any other legal remedies available, to seek an immediate injunction against you prohibiting any further use of the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision (in whole or part) of these Terms shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions (in whole or part). The whole or part of any provision which is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed deleted from these Terms.
These Terms are personal to you. You shall not be entitled to assign these Terms in whole or in part to any third party without our prior written consent.
These Terms represent the entire agreement between us and you and supersede and replace all and any previous terms, conditions, agreements and arrangements in respect of your use of the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms.
We will act promptly to any indications of User Content that is in breach of these Terms. Where you know of or suspect any illegal activities, or know of or suspect that works belonging to you have been infringed, please write to us at the address provided below, marked for the attention of our ‘General Counsel’ or here.
Any failure by us to enforce any of these Terms shall not be considered to be a waiver of them or the right to subsequently enforce any of these Terms.
A person who is not a party to these Terms shall have no right to enforce any provision of these Terms.
Irrespective of the country from which you access or use the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms, to the extent permitted by law these Terms and your use of the Trekhunt Services and/or Trekhunt Platforms shall be governed in accordance with the laws of Hungary and you are deemed to have submitted to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Hungary to resolve any disputes which may arise hereunder.
