Legal and Affiliate Disclaimer

Affiliate Disclaimer

The Global Viewpoint Travel Blog contains affiliate links, which means we may earn a commission if you make a purchase through one of these links at no extra cost to you. We only recommend products, services, and accommodations that we’ve personally used, loved, or believe will bring genuine value to our readers. Our opinions are always our own and are not influenced by any affiliate partnerships.

Our travel recommendations are based on firsthand experience and extensive research – either mine, my team’s, or our trusted network of global travel contributors. Everything we share is curated with care and grounded in years of exploring 70+ countries.

Transparency is important to us. While affiliate links help support the work we do, they never influence our editorial decisions or content integrity.

We cannot be held liable for any issues, losses, disappointment, or damages that may arise from booking accommodations or purchasing services through our affiliate partners.

For any questions or concerns about affiliate relationships, feel free to contact us at jon@myglobalviewpoint.com.

Image Usage

We use a mix of our own photography, licensed stock imagery (e.g., Shutterstock), free stock images, and press images provided by hotels and tourism boards. We do our best to ensure image accuracy and proper credit.

Some photos may be illustrative and not always 100% representative of the experience or destination. We are not liable for any disappointment, decisions, damage, theft, injury, or death made based on visual content.

If you believe an image has been used without permission, please reach out to us directly and we will address it promptly.

Content Accuracy

All information published on Global Viewpoint is shared in good faith. While we strive to keep content accurate and up to date, travel conditions can change quickly due to weather, politics, local regulations, and more.

We disclaim any responsibility for errors, outdated details, or losses resulting from reliance on this site. This includes, but is not limited to, any failure or alleged failure in the delivery of the products/services referred to herein, or in the event of the bankruptcy, liquidation or cessation of trade of any company, individual or firm referred to herein.

Readers are always encouraged to double-check critical information (e.g., visa requirements, health mandates, and transport availability) before booking anything mentioned on our site.

Advertising & Tracking

We may work with third-party advertising networks (such as Google, Meta, or Mediavine) to display ads on our website. These may use cookies to personalize your experience. See our Privacy Policy Page for more.

We also may participate in remarketing campaigns to reach past site visitors via ads. These platforms (e.g. Google, Facebook, or Instagram) may use cookies based on your activity on Global Viewpoint.

Affiliate Programs

Global Viewpoint participates in several affiliate programs, including (but not limited to) Booking.com, Stay22, GetYourGuide, Viator, Going.com, and Amazon Associates. These programs use cookies to track purchases and assign commission.

Again, this does not affect the content we create. We earn from qualifying purchases but this does not affect our editorial decisions. Our opinions are always our own.
