If you do not fully agree to these Terms, you are not authorized to access or otherwise use the Site. You should read through all the Terms carefully. The Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Marsbrook (marsbrookholidayideas.com). You are not authorized to use this Site unless you are able to enter into legally binding contracts. Further, in some cases, we and a user may enter into a separate written agreement or contract providing additional terms and conditions of such user’s use of this Site and incorporating these Terms by reference. 1. The Site is a Venue and We are Not a Party to any Holiday / Coursel Transaction.We urge all users to be responsible about their use of this Site and any transaction entered into as a result of either advertising their holidays or purchasing a holiday. We do not own or manage, nor can we contract for, any holiday listed on the Site. Instead, the Site acts as a venue to allow holiday providders who advertise on our Site (each, a “member”) to offer in a variety of pricing formats, a specific holiday to potential customers (each, a “ traveller” and, collectively with a member, the “users”). We are not involved in any transaction between travellers and members even though we may from time to time provide tools that enable a traveller to enter into a transaction to purchase a specific holiday directly from a member (a “Holiday Transaction”). As a result, any aspect of an actual or potential transaction between a traveller and a member, including the quality, safety or legality of the holidays advertised, the truth or accuracy of the listings (including the content thereof or any holiday or review), the ability of members to offer a given holiday or the ability of travellers to pay for the holidy(s) are solely the responsibility of each user. 2.
