Terms of Service

1. About Journeyblog

Journeyblog publishes travel writing, destination guides, and podcast episodes. The content is provided for informational and inspirational purposes. We are not a travel agency and do not book, sell, or arrange travel on your behalf.

2. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Service for any unlawful purpose
• Scrape, copy, or republish our content without written permission
• Attempt to disrupt, reverse-engineer, or bypass security of the Service
• Impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation
• Upload malicious code, spam, or harassing content

3. Intellectual property

All content on Journeyblog — articles, photography, podcast audio, designs, and the Journeyblog name and logo — is owned by Journeyblog or licensed to us. You may share links to our pages and quote short excerpts with clear attribution. Any other use requires our written permission.

4. User-submitted content

If you send us a tip, comment, photo, or message via the contact form or email, you grant Journeyblog a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, edit, and publish that content in connection with the Service, with appropriate attribution where reasonable.

5. Travel information disclaimer

Our travel content is researched and written in good faith, but conditions change. Visa requirements, health guidance, prices, opening hours, safety advisories, and border rules can shift rapidly. Always verify critical details with the relevant official sources (government travel advisories, airlines, visa authorities, local tourism offices) before making plans.

Nothing on Journeyblog is medical, legal, financial, or professional advice.

6. Third-party links and affiliate relationships

Journeyblog may link to third-party websites or services. We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content, privacy practices, or terms. Some links may be affiliate links, meaning we earn a small commission if you make a purchase — at no additional cost to you. We only affiliate with services we'd recommend anyway.

7. Disclaimers

The Service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that the content is complete or current.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Journeyblog and its team will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Service or reliance on its content. Your sole remedy for dissatisfaction with the Service is to stop using it.

9. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms periodically. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

10. Governing law

These Terms are governed by applicable law without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Any disputes will be resolved in a court of competent jurisdiction.
