YepSea Terms of Use

Last updated: 14/01/2021

The company helps users to search and book travel experiences, post opinions and interact in forums. However, it is not a travel agency or tour operator and does not provide the experiences directly. When making a booking, the user purchases the tour, ticket or other service directly from the third-party provider.

These Terms of Use apply to any use of the YepSea Services. Please read the Terms of Use carefully, as they contain important information about your legal rights and their limitations, as well as a section regarding applicable law and jurisdiction in case of disputes. By accessing or using the YepSea Services, you acknowledge that you have read these Terms of Use and agree to be bound by them. If you do not agree to all of the Terms of Use, your access to or use of the Services will not be permitted.

1. Introduction

a. These terms of use, together with the Privacy Policy (collectively, the "Terms of Use") set out the terms on which YepSea ("YepSea", "the Company") provides services (the "Services") through YepSea's booking platform (the "Platform") as made available through the website (www.YepSea.com), together with all related domains, white label and partner sites, mobile and related applications, collectively referred to as the "Website") and by telephone. The term "User" means any person accessing or using the Services. YepSea is not a travel agency or tour operator and is not a provider of tours, activities or experiences. When you make a booking, you are using the Platform to enter into a contract with third party providers.

b. To contact YepSea, please visit the YepSea Customer Service page with all the company's contact details.

c. These Terms of Use govern the relationship between you and the Company with respect to the use of the Services, including any bookings made for tours, tickets, attractions, activities and/or experiences (referred to in these Terms of Use as "Experiences") advertised on the Site and made available by third party providers (each, a "Product").

d. By using or accessing the Services, reserving a Product ("Reservation") and/or creating an account on the Site ("YepSea Account"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use without modification and acknowledge that you have read and understood them. In all agreements relating to a Booking, the user making the Booking shall be deemed to have accepted these Terms of Use on behalf of all persons included in the Booking.

e. The Company reserves the right to update or otherwise modify these Terms of Use at any time. You agree that your access to or continued use of the Services following any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms of Use.

b. If you become aware of an infringement of your trade mark or the Company's trade mark, contact us to report a claim of copyright infringement.

10. Products and Reservations

a. YepSea provides the Platform through which you may enter into a contract with the third party supplier of a Product ("Supplier"). YepSea is not a supplier of any Product and the contract for the supply of any Booked Product is entered into directly between you and the relevant Supplier. With respect to each Reservation, YepSea acts as an agent of the Supplier, which means that the profile of a Product represents an invitation to the user to make an offer to a Supplier. As part of this process, the Company is free to accept or reject such offer on behalf of the Supplier. These Terms of Use govern your use of the Services, including your use of the Platform through which you may make such an offer to a Supplier. However, the supply of the Product you have booked will be subject to the terms and conditions displayed on the Site in respect of that Product, the information made available to you during the Booking process and the terms and conditions of the Supplier with whom you enter into a legal contract for the supply of the Product.

b. By making a Reservation, you agree to review and be bound by the Supplier's terms and conditions and any other rules or regulations related to the Product ("Supplier Terms"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Provider Terms conflict with these Terms of Use with respect to the legal relationship between you and YepSea, these Terms of Use shall prevail. You assume the entire risk of your interactions with the Providers. YepSea disclaims any and all liability for the acts, omissions, errors, misrepresentations, warranties, breaches or negligence of any Provider or for any personal injury, death, property damage, or other damages or expenses resulting from interactions between you and any Provider.

c. YepSea is not a travel agency and does not provide or own any Experience. Although, through the Site, YepSea provides Product information and facilitates Reservations, such activities do not in any way imply sponsorship or endorsement of Providers by YepSea, nor affiliation between YepSea and any Provider. Although YepSea users may rate and review certain Products based on their own experiences, YepSea does not sponsor or recommend any Products. You agree that YepSea is in no way responsible for the accuracy or completeness of any information obtained from Suppliers and/or posted on the Site.

d. By making a Reservation, the user declares that they are at least 18 years of age, have the legal authority to enter into this binding agreement and a binding agreement with the Provider, to use the Services, to purchase the Product and to provide only true and accurate information. You also agree to use the Platform exclusively to make legitimate Bookings for yourself and/or for third parties on whose behalf you are legally authorised to act.

11. Prices

a. The price of each Product shall be quoted per person, unless otherwise specified.

b. Prices are based on the local rate in effect at the time of the quotation, converted at the prevailing exchange rate as determined by YepSea. For more information on currency conversion, please refer to Section 12.

c. Quotations are subject to change without notice until the Reservation is made.

d. Unless otherwise specified by the Supplier, prices do not include local taxes, surcharges, including costs for international departures, security costs, port charges, parking, customs fees, costs for transporting passenger effects or taxes for international transport.

e. Inclusions are determined by the Supplier. Prices do not include gratuities, passport and visa fees, personal or baggage insurance, any other items of a personal nature, taxes and charges, beverages or food not expressly indicated as included by the Supplier.

12. Currency Conversions

a. Where YepSea provides a currency converter, exchange rates will be based on various publicly available sources, to be used for reference purposes only. Rates are not verified and may vary. Currencies in the quotes may not be updated daily, so YepSea and its partners do not guarantee their accuracy. YepSea accepts no liability in the event of price changes due to currency fluctuations.

13. Payments

a. When you make a Reservation, YepSea, as Supplier's limited payment collection agent, collects payment information and processes the transaction as described in Section 14. Unless otherwise specified, full payment by credit or debit card is required to make a Reservation. The payee indicated on the statement shall be YepSea.

b. The value of the Reservation may be subject to taxes, charges, foreign transaction fees, exchange rates or other costs. The bank or card issuer may make the conversion to local currency and charge for it, resulting in differences between the amount shown on the Platform and the final amount charged. YepSea recommends that you contact your bank or card issuer if you have any questions about applicable conversion rates or costs.

14. Payment processing

a. Under these Terms of Use, payment processing services for the Services provided on the Site are provided by Stripe and Paypal depending on the payment method used for the Booking.

15. Changes or cancellations by the user

a. Once a Product has been purchased, the Reservation cannot be changed or cancelled by obtaining a refund, unless otherwise stated in the terms and conditions applicable to the Product concerned.

b. Standard cancellation mode allows for a request to modify and/or cancel a Reservation up to 24 hours prior to the start time of the Reservation or, if the Experience does not have an explicit start time, the modification or cancellation request must be received by 11:59 p.m., two days prior to the start date. The times indicated refer to the time zone of the Experience.

c. If "All sales are final" or a substantially similar message is displayed (which includes, without limitation, all group bookings made through the Group Booking Department), the Product is non-refundable and it will not be possible to change or cancel the Booking once made. A minority of products use different cancellation modes. In all cases, check the cancellation mode in the profile of the Product concerned at the time of the Reservation, as this defines the terms applicable to cancellation and possible refunds.

d. Subject to Sections 15.2 and 15.3, (a) requests to amend or correct a Reservation, including requests to change the date ("Change Request") must be made online via the "Manage Reservation" section of the Site; (b) if it is possible to satisfy a Change Request, YepSea will not charge any fee, provided that the Request is received by the deadline specified in the Product Profile. Suppliers may charge an additional fee for fulfilling a Change Request. In such circumstance, you must pay such surcharge in order for YepSea to process the Change Request.

e. All Change Requests will be processed by YepSea, subject to availability and the agreement of the Supplier concerned. YepSea does not guarantee acceptance of all Change Requests. To the extent that the Supplier is unwilling or unable to accept a Change Request, your right to receive a refund (if any) will be governed by the cancellation of the Booking.

f. If you make a Reservation, using a promotional code, or accept a discount or special offer during the payment process, any change requests subsequent to the Reservation may invalidate the discount or special offer.

g. There are no refunds once an Experience has begun or for packages, accommodation meals or other services that the user has already started using.

16. Other changes and cancellations

a. At times, Suppliers may change Products after purchase, including, without limitation, the date, price, services included, coverage, age requirements and/or other features and/or requirements. YepSea therefore reserves the right to cancel, modify or replace any Product purchased, at any time and for any reason. If the change proposed by the Supplier is substantial (for example, a change of dates and/or a significant change of itinerary) and you are not satisfied with the alternative offered, you will be entitled to a full refund of the original purchase price.

b. The Company reserves the right to determine, in its sole discretion, if it is necessary or desirable, for the protection of its own interests, the interests of the Provider or the user, to revoke the Services by disregarding the cancellation of the Product and proceeding to the final cancellation of a Reservation. The Company also reserves the right to determine, at its own discretion, whether to reimburse the user for the amounts charged or part thereof. You agree to indemnify the Supplier concerned and the Company against any liability in respect of such cancellations or refunds.

17. Passports, visas and insurance

a. When making a Reservation, you are responsible for ensuring that you meet all requirements for entry into foreign countries and that you have valid and proper travel documents, including a passport and visa.

b. For passport and visa requirements, please contact the relevant embassy or consulate. Requirements may change at any time and it is your responsibility to check the updated information before making a Reservation and prior to any departure. YepSea accepts no responsibility for any person being refused access to a flight or entry into a country, including countries of stopover or passage en route to their final destination.

c. As health and residence permit requirements are subject to change without notice, YepSea recommends that you check with the appropriate consulate prior to departure. It is also your responsibility to consult your attending physician for up-to-date advice or vaccinations prior to international travel, to verify that you meet all health requirements and to obtain travel-related medical information and advice.

d. Users are strongly advised to purchase comprehensive travel insurance prior to departure in order to protect their purchase. In the event of trip cancellation or substantial change of dates, the insurance policy may reimburse cancellation penalties and related expenses. Please read the terms and conditions of the insurance policy you have taken out carefully.

e. Although most travel, including travel to international destinations, is completed without incident, travel to some destinations may involve greater risks than others. YepSea encourages customers to check prohibited destinations, notices, announcements and communiqués issued by the Foreign Ministry, the European Union and destination countries before booking travel to an international destination.

f. YepSea MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY THAT TRAVEL TO ANY DESTINATION IS RECOMMENDED OR RISK-FREE AND DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES OR LOSSES RESULTING FROM TRAVEL TO CERTAIN DESTINATIONS.

f. If any YepSea Group Company is found liable for any loss or damage resulting from or otherwise related to the use of the Services, a Reservation or the use of a Product, such liability shall in no event exceed, in the aggregate, the greater of (a) the amount paid to YepSea in respect of the Reservation from which the claim arises; (b) one hundred United States dollars (USD 100.00).

g. The limitation of liability set forth in this Section 18 reflects the allocation of risk between the parties. The limitations specified in this Section shall survive and remain in effect even if the essential purpose of any limited remedy specified in these Terms of Use is found to be ineffective. The limitations of liability set forth in these Terms of Use shall survive for the benefit of the YepSea Group Companies.

For Products bearing the words "Shore Excursion with Guarantee", (a) if you purchase the Product for use while at a particular port of disembarkation and (b) you are not brought back to the ship by the Supplier concerned in time for embarkation, YepSea will (in accordance with Sections 20.2 and 20.3) arrange the necessary transportation to the next port of call.

b. The guarantee defined in this Section 20.1 - 20.4 is provided only in the event of failure to return to the ship in time for embarkation that is not attributable to the fault or action of the passenger. The guarantee is void in the event of delay caused by the conduct of the passenger and/or deviation from the booked Experience.

c. To take advantage of the guarantee, you must provide YepSea with the ship's exact arrival and departure information and check that there is sufficient time between the end time of the Experience and the ship's departure time (minimum 2 hours). Contact YepSea as soon as possible to arrange transport to the next port of call, as it is not possible to book the vessel personally without invalidating the guarantee.

d. Subject to the user's eligibility, YepSea will facilitate the booking of transport to the next port of call (for a value not exceeding USD 1,000 per person).

e. Subject to the protections guaranteed under Section 20.1 - 20.4, if the ship does not call at a particular port or if it is delayed beyond the guaranteed shore excursion start time, you need only contact YepSea within 14 days. The Company will issue a refund to you following verification of the vessel's actual itinerary.

21. YepSea Tickets

a. You will receive a YepSea branded ticket or, alternatively, a voucher from the Supplier ("Ticket") for each Product booked. To access and print the Ticket, you will be directed to a secure webpage hosted by YepSea that contains the link to the Ticket. Certain Reservations provide for the issuance of an electronic Ticket in addition to or instead of a paper Ticket.

b. You must present the authentic and original Ticket to the relevant Supplier in order to use the Product. The Reservation cannot be honoured or used without producing a valid Ticket. Please ensure that you read the terms and conditions relating to the Reservation in order to understand the Supplier's requirements for producing the Ticket.

c. For security reasons, when redeeming the Ticket you must present a valid photo ID and sign the Ticket.

d. In some cases, a Supplier may require you to show the payment card used to purchase the Product at the time of the activity. This is usually the case for tickets to attractions and shows. You are advised to check any requirements. If you have any questions about this, please contact the YepSea customer support team.
