The updated terms explicitly state that automated agents, bots, APIs, and AI-based tools accessing your account on your behalf are covered by the agreement, and you are responsible for all actions those tools take. Previously, the terms referenced electronic agents more generically. The revised language directly obligates account holders for automated activity, meaning if a buy-for-me agent, API, or bot violates platform rules through your account, you bear liability for that violation. The updated terms also remove country-specific overrides that previously applied in the UK, Italy, France, Germany, Japan, and South Korea, meaning the main terms now apply uniformly across those jurisdictions without regional exemptions.

If we reasonably expect to provide a refund to a Guest under one of these policies, we may delay release of any payout for that Reservation until a refund decision is made.
