By using or utilizing the Trip Service (e.g. by making a Trip Reservation through the Trip Service), you enter into a direct (legally binding) contractual relationship with Satreks with which you make a reservation or purchase a product or service (as applicable). From the point at which you make your Trip Reservation, we act as an intermediary between you and the Trip Provider, transmitting the relevant details of your Trip Reservation to the relevant Trip Provider(s) and sending you a confirmation email.

The information that we disclose regarding the Trip Service, is based on the information provided to us by Trip Providers and our knowledge of the Trip Provider. Although we will use reasonable skill and care in performing our Trip Service, we cannot guarantee that all information is accurate, complete, or correct, nor can we be held responsible for any errors (including manifest and typographical errors), any interruptions (whether due to any (temporary and/or partial) breakdown, repair, upgrade, or maintenance of our Platform or otherwise), displayed on our Platform.  Through our star system, we make recommendations or endorsement in the Platform of each Trip Provider considering the quality, service level, facilities and other characteristics, but we cannot guarantee that you will fully agree in all of them. It is only for the purpose of helping evaluate each product or service.

Our Trip Service is made available for personal and non-commercial use only.

3. Booking Process: Inquiry before Booking.

The booking process is explained in our Platform in the “Planning your Trip Section” and differs from other common booking companies. Our Platform is not connected in real time with hotels, lodges or cruises. That means that customers need to inquiry before booking any product or service in order to confirm availability of dates by Trip Providers.

4. Prices

The prices as offered in our Platform are highly competitive. All prices for your Trip are displayed including VAT/sales tax and all other taxes (subject to change of such taxes) and fees, unless stated differently on our Platform or the confirmation email/order. Prices are per person or group per day and subject to validity or expiration, if applicable.

All special offers and promotions are marked as such. If they are not labeled as such, you cannot derive any rights in the event of obvious errors or mistakes.

Our Platform presents all extra charges (ex. wire transfer fees for non us resident) or any other product or services (ex. like hunting or fishing licenses, shells) in each Trip page or during the reservation process.  Any other additional service or product consumed by our customers during the trip that are not in the reservation in the Platform (eg. transfers, dinners, lunch) that is not included in the Trip or in the Trip provider service, will be charged separately.

Other services provided directly by us along the booking and/or during the trip that not require purchases to third parties, like recommendations of destinations, advice, trip follow up, problem solving issues regarding to the trip (ej. like plane flight date changes, change in reservations dates), are free of charge.

Only Trip Providers which have a commercial relationship with Satreks will be made available on Platform. Satreks is not an open platform (like Amazon or eBay) where end users or Trip Providers can make their product available (no C2C platform).

7. Full and Partial Payments. Credit Card, Bank Transfer or Check Payment.

We offer the possibility to pay through different payment method like bank transfer, check or credit card for Trip Reservations during the Trip Reservation process, by means of secure online payment. We also offer to possibility to pay deposit (partial payment) or full deposit of the Trip. The Trip is considered fully paid when the customer pays 100% of the price of each product or service. Partial payment is considered only as a reservation for the Trip.

Credit card payment is safely processed from your credit/debit card to the bank account of Satreks through a third-party payment processor.

Detail Information for Check payment and Wire transfers are informed on the Platform and also in the order confirmation email. Satreks is not responsible for any mistake made by customers in regarding to any payment method. Only payment received in the Satreks account (not in the Platform), constitute a payment of (part of) the booking price by you of the relevant product or service in final settlement of such (partial) due and payable price and you cannot reclaim such paid monies. Till that moment the reservation is not confirmed and Satreks could change the dates of the trips according to the availability of the Trip provider/s. For check or wire transfer payments, there will be a natural delay in the confirmation of the reservation since it not depends on Satreks.  When the payment is received in Satreks account, you could receive an email informing that the order is partially paid o paid completed, depending on the type of payment (partial or full payment).

In the event of credit card fraud or unauthorized use of your credit card by third parties, most banks and credit card companies bear the risk and cover all the charges resulting from such fraud or misuse, which may sometimes be subject to a deductible (usually set at EUR 50 (or the equivalent in your local currency)). In the event that your credit card company or bank charges the deductible from you because of unauthorized transactions resulting from a reservation made on our Platform, we will pay you this deductible, up to an aggregate amount of EUR 50 (or the equivalent in your local currency). In order to indemnify you, make sure that you report this fraud to your credit card provider (in accordance with its reporting rules and procedures) and contact us immediately by email (customerservice@satreks.com). State “credit card fraud” in the subject line of your email and provide us with evidence of the charged deductible (e.g. policy of the credit card company). This indemnification only applies to credit card reservations made using satreks.com secure server and the unauthorized use of your credit card resulted through our default or negligence and through no fault of your own while using the secure server.

10. Recommended Destinations

The stars rating used for every accommodations do not correspond to the international star ranking system applicable to hotel accommodations. The Satreks star rating of Suppliers on our Platform or “Recommended Lodges & Hotels” or “Recommended Tours” (or any similar wording); is created through our knowledge and considers a multitude of criteria in order to facilitate the evaluation to our customers. The star rating is based, for example the popularity of an accommodation premise among our visitors (e.g. guest reviews), customer service history (including the number and type of guest complaints), and other booking-related. A customer can choose to rank, for example, accommodations on the basis of lowest price first, review scores, accommodation type (etc.). A customer thus has full control on the presentation of the search results.

Only Trip Providers that meet and maintain certain qualification criteria can be listed as recommended.

Only customers who have stayed at the Accommodation will be invited by Booking.com to comment on their stay at the relevant accommodations and to provide a score for certain aspects of their stay. The completed guest review may be (a) uploaded onto the relevant Trip Provider’s information page on our Platform for the sole purpose of informing (future) customers of your opinion of the service (level) and quality of the Trip Provider, and (b) (wholly or partly) used and placed by Satreks at its sole discretion (e.g. for marketing, promotion, or improvement of our service) on our Platform or such social media platforms, newsletters, special promotions, apps, or other channels owned, hosted, used, or controlled by Satreks. In order to offer and maintain recent (and therefore relevant) reviews, reviews can only be submitted within a limited period of time (60 days) after a stay and each review will could be available for a long period of time (5 years) after posting. You have the option to choose various different forms of ranking and filter (e.g. by date, star, type of destination, price). Satreks does not allow the Trip Provider to respond to a review. We reserve the right to adjust, refuse, or remove reviews at our sole discretion insofar it violates our review policy. Satreks does not compensate or otherwise reward a customer for completing a review. The guest review form should be regarded as a survey and does not include any (further commercial) offers, invitations, or incentives whatsoever.
