USE OF
INFORMATION
WCT reserves the right, and you authorize WCT and its
affiliates, to use and assign all information provided by you in any manner
consistent with WCT's Privacy Policy. You may view WCT's Privacy Policy by
clicking HERE.
CONTENT
Some of the Content
that refers to city attractions, things to do, hotel accommodations, restaurants
and other services is the property of, and is supplied by, third parties that
are not under WCT's control. WCT does not independently verify, and does not
guarantee, the accuracy of the information that we receive from such third
parties. All information, prices and availability are subject to change without
notice.
LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES
The Booking
Engine may contain hyperlinks to websites operated by third parties. WCT does
not control such websites and will not be responsible for their content or for
any breach of contract or any intentional or negligent action on the part of
such third parties, which results in any loss, damage, delay or injury to you or
your companions. WCT is not responsible for the accuracy of opinions expressed
on such websites, and such websites are not investigated, monitored or checked
for accuracy or completeness by WCT. Inclusion of any linked website on the
Booking Engine does not imply or constitute approval or endorsement of the
linked website by WCT. If you decide to leave the Booking Engine to access these
third party sites, you do so at your own risk. All rules, policies (including
privacy policies) and operating procedures of websites operated by third parties
will apply to you while on such sites. WCT is not responsible for information
provided by you to third parties.
TAX RECOVERY
CHARGE
The tax charge on Hot Rate hotel transactions is a recovery of
all applicable transaction taxes (e.g. sales and use, occupancy, room tax,
excise tax, value added tax, etc.) that WCT collects from customers and pays to
vendors (such as hotels, etc.) in connection with your travel arrangements.
WCT is not the vendor collecting and remitting such tax to the
applicable tax authorities. The vendors bill WCT for applicable taxes and WCT
remits such amounts directly to the vendors. WCT is not a co-vendor associated
with the vendor with whom WCT books or reserves travel
arrangements.
Taxability and the appropriate tax rate vary greatly by
location. The actual amount of tax paid to vendors may vary from the tax
recovery charge, depending upon the rates, taxability or other factors in effect
at the time of the actual use of a given travel service by a customer.
WCT does not incur the cost of sales tax from vendors located in Alaska,
Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon, as these states do not impose a
sales tax. Also, certain jurisdictions impose a hotel occupancy tax or other
type of transaction tax upon the renting of a hotel room, an automobile, etc.
The type of tax collected by a vendor will vary by service and location.
TERMS OF SERVICE - HOT RATE HOTEL RESERVATIONS
ONLY
Credit cards for Hot Rate hotel reservations will be charged the
full amount for the reservation including all taxes and applicable service fees
at the time of booking. Reservations may be changed or cancelled anytime within
the appropriate hotel's cancellations policy period at a charge indicated on the
applicable website. Upon arrival and check in at a hotel, you are responsible
for the entire length of stay. No refunds or credits will be issued for any
nights reserved but not consumed. Cancellations made after the hotel cancel
policy period has lapsed or no shows will be charged according to the hotel's
cancellation policy (although the cancellation charge usually equals one night's
room rate plus tax, you should look to the specific hotel's policies for the
exact charges that you may incur). No contract will exist between you and WCT
(or its affiliates) until WCT has sent you an email with a pre-payment voucher
that you will present to the appropriate hotel at the time of your check
in.
CURRENCY CONVERTER
Currency rates are
based on various publicly available sources and should be used as guidelines
only. Rates are not verified as accurate, and actual rates may vary. Currency
quotes are not updated every day. Check the date on the Currency Converter for
the day that currency was last updated. Neither WCT nor its affiliates warrant
or guarantee the accuracy of any such information. When using this information
for any financial purpose, WCT advises you to consult a qualified professional
to verify the accuracy of the currency rates. WCT does not authorize the use of
this information for any purpose other than personal use and hereby prohibits,
to the maximum extent allowable the resale, redistribution, and use of this
information for commercial purposes.
INDEMNIFICATION
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold
WCT and its affiliates and any of WCT or its affiliates' officers, directors,
employees, agents, successors and assigns, harmless from and against any
liability, claim, loss, expense, cause of action or demand, including without
limitation reasonable legal and accounting fees arising directly or indirectly
in connection with any breach by you of any term, condition, representation,
warranty or covenant contained herein or otherwise resulting from your use of
the Booking Engine.
CONTRACT
INFORMATION
No contract will exist as between you and WCT or any of
its affiliates for the sale of any product or service unless and until WCT
accepts your reservation by email confirming your reservation or purchase and
issues you a unique confirmation code. Acceptance will be deemed complete and
will be deemed to be effectively communicated to you for all purposes at the
time that WCT sends the email to you, whether or not you receive the email.
MISCELLANEOUS
This User Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida,
USA, without regard to any conflict of law principles. You irrevocably and
unconditionally agree that any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to
this User Agreement may be brought in the United States District Court for the

jurisdiction, in any court of competent jurisdiction in Palm Beach County; and
hereby consent to the jurisdiction of each such court in any proceeding. Use of

to all provisions of these terms and conditions, including, without limitation,
this paragraph.
This User Agreement (and any other terms and conditions
referenced herein) constitutes the entire and only agreement between WCT and its
affiliates and you, and supercedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements,
representations, warranties and understandings with respect to the Booking
Engine, the Content or any products or services provided by or through the
Booking Engine, and the subject matter of this User Agreement.
You agree
that no joint venture, partnership, employment or agency relationship is created

performance of this User Agreement is subject to existing laws and legal
process, and nothing contained in this User Agreement is in derogation of WCT's
right to comply with law enforcement requests or requirements relating to your
use of the Booking Engine or information provided to or gathered by WCT with
respect to such use.
If any part of this User 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 this User Agreement shall continue in
effect.
A printed version of this User Agreement and of any notice given
in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings
based upon or relating to this User Agreement to the same extent and subject to
the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated
and maintained in printed form.
WCT's failure to enforce any provision
of this User Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision nor of the
right to enforce such provision.

people, characters, and/or data mentioned herein are not intended to represent
any real individual, company, product, or event. Any rights not expressly
granted herein are reserved.
Other terms and conditions may apply to
your purchase of products or services offered on or through the Booking
