Acceptance of these terms
Tourism Rio de Janeiro is owned and operated by The Travel Spark Company LLC. By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
What we provide
We publish independent travel information, comparisons, planning suggestions and editorial recommendations about Rio de Janeiro and related destinations. We are not a tour operator, hotel, travel agency, transport provider or ticket seller unless a page clearly states otherwise.
Opening hours, prices, routes, weather, availability, entry requirements and local conditions can change. Confirm important details with the relevant venue, authority or service provider before relying on them.
Affiliate links and third-party bookings
Some links are affiliate links. We may earn a commission when you book through partners such as Viator or Expedia, at no extra cost to you. Affiliate compensation does not guarantee coverage or a positive recommendation.
Any booking is made directly with the third-party provider. Its prices, availability, cancellation rules, payment terms, privacy policy and customer service obligations apply. We are not a party to that transaction and do not control the provider's performance.
Traveler responsibility and risk
Travel, hiking, swimming, nightlife, transport and outdoor activities involve risks. You are responsible for assessing your health, experience, insurance, route, weather, local guidance and personal safety. Follow official advice and instructions from qualified operators.
Site content is general information, not medical, legal, financial or emergency advice. Seek an appropriate professional when a decision requires that expertise.
Intellectual property and permitted use
Unless otherwise stated, the site's writing, branding, graphics, photographs, layouts and original materials are owned by The Travel Spark Company LLC or used with permission and are protected by applicable law.
You may share links and quote short excerpts with clear attribution. You may not reproduce, scrape, republish, sell, train a commercial dataset on, or distribute substantial portions of the site without written permission.
Prohibited uses
- Using the site for an unlawful, fraudulent or abusive purpose.
- Attempting to bypass security, access restricted systems or disrupt the service.
- Introducing malicious code, automated spam or excessive automated requests.
- Impersonating the site, its contributors or a third-party provider.
- Using the brand or content in a way that suggests endorsement without permission.
Availability and disclaimers
The site and its content are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim warranties of accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement and uninterrupted availability.
We may update, remove or restrict content or features at any time. External links are provided for convenience and do not make us responsible for third-party sites, content or practices.
Limitation of liability and indemnity
To the maximum extent permitted by law, The Travel Spark Company LLC and its owners, contributors, affiliates and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages arising from the site, reliance on its content, a third-party booking, travel disruption, injury, loss or a provider dispute.
You agree to indemnify and hold those parties harmless from claims, liabilities, losses and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful use of the site or your violation of these terms.
Changes, severability and waiver
We may update these terms by posting a revised version and effective date. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised terms. If a provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
Governing law and jurisdiction
These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable there, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to any rights you cannot waive under applicable consumer law, disputes will be submitted to the courts located in Ontario, Canada.
