Terms of Service

Terms and conditions governing your use of TravelPRNews.com and its travel press release distribution and related service(s) (collectively, the “Service”):

1. Use

  1. Submitted PR Materials; Editorial Guidelines
     You are responsible for the content, accuracy, and legality of all press releases and other PR information submitted by you to EPR Network, LLC dba TravelPRNews.com (“TravelPRNews.com”) or entered into the Service (the “Submitted PR Materials”). Because of the volume of information and the number of travel press releases submitted to TravelPRNews.com, TravelPRNews.com cannot be responsible for verifying facts contained in Submitted PR Materials. All Submitted PR Materials must follow TravelPRNews.com’s editorial guidelines (as posted on the website and subject to change at any time at TravelPRNews.com’s sole discretion).

License & Enforcement Authorization (for Submitted PR Materials).
 By submitting PR materials to TravelPRNews.com, you grant EPR Network, LLC a worldwide, royalty-free, transferable license to reproduce, distribute, display, publish, archive, store, and otherwise use such PR materials in connection with the Service (including on websites, feeds, and archives). You further authorize EPR Network, LLC to act as your authorized agent for purposes of protecting and enforcing copyrights in the Submitted PR Materials, including (without limitation) the right to send cease-and-desist letters, submit DMCA notices, and pursue legal or administrative remedies to prevent unauthorized copying or misuse.

  1. Editorial Control; Ownership of Editorial Enhancements
     TravelPRNews.com reserves the right (i) to reject or edit Submitted PR Materials, provided that substantive edits to Submitted PR Materials will not be made without your prior consent; and (ii) to remove any press release from its website, pull any press release from distribution, or deny approval to any press release. TravelPRNews.com can only remove Submitted PR Materials from its own site; it makes no representation or warranty regarding removal from third-party sites not affiliated with or controlled by TravelPRNews.com or EPR Network, LLC.

TravelPRNews.com retains all rights, title, and interest in any original editorial enhancements it creates in connection with Submitted PR Materials or its own original reporting (collectively, “TravelPRNews Editorial Content”), including but not limited to summaries/abstracts, headlines, FAQs, curated links, editorial picks, formatting, selection/coordination/arrangement of materials, page design and layout. These enhancements and original reporting are copyrighted works of EPR Network, LLC. To the extent applicable outside the U.S., TravelPRNews.com also asserts rights in its selection and arrangement of content and data compilations under applicable laws.

  1. Publication Timing
     TravelPRNews.com endeavors to disseminate Submitted PR Materials promptly and accurately. Any inadvertent errors by TravelPRNews.com will be corrected promptly upon discovery, without additional charge, and such obligation to correct shall constitute the sole liability of TravelPRNews.com in this regard. If Submitted PR Material is not published on and distributed via TravelPRNews.com within 30 days of the earlier of (i) the date on which you enter such material or (ii) payment for the Service (even if you have not yet entered the material) for reasons other than a delay caused solely by TravelPRNews.com, then TravelPRNews.com’s service to you concerning such material and/or payment shall be considered complete, and TravelPRNews.com shall have no further obligation to you regarding such material or payment.
  2. Contact Details
     All Submitted PR Materials transmitted by TravelPRNews.com must contain a user-supplied contact name, phone number, and email address that may be verified by TravelPRNews.com.
  3. Distribution; No Placement Guarantee; Optional Exclusivity
     TravelPRNews.com does not guarantee specific placement or third-party pickup of any travel press release. It will deliver content via online distribution methods to make such content available to third parties who discover it across the Internet, intended or unintended. Where PR materials are submitted on an exclusive basis, you warrant that you have not provided, and will not provide, the same PR materials to any other newswire or distribution service until after TravelPRNews.com has published them.
  4. Acceptable Use; Automated Access
     You agree to use the Service only for its intended purpose and not for any illicit purposes including, but not limited to, reverse engineering of the site and/or its processes or inclusion of such processes in a derivative service. You shall not query, scrape, harvest, crawl, or access any TravelPRNews.com systems or content by automated means (including bots, spiders, or similar tools) without prior written consent from TravelPRNews.com or EPR Network, LLC. Systematic retrieval of data or content to create or compile, directly or indirectly, a collection, database, or directory without prior written permission is prohibited.
  5. Use of Site Content; Republishing Restrictions
     Except for Submitted PR Materials as distributed through the Service, you may not copy, republish, mirror, or otherwise reproduce TravelPRNews Editorial Content (including summaries, headlines, curated links, FAQs, formatting, selection/coordination/arrangement, or original reporting) without prior written permission from TravelPRNews.com. Limited quotation for news reporting/criticism is permitted with clear attribution and a conspicuous link to the original TravelPRNews.com page. Any other reuse requires prior written consent.
