These Terms of Use apply when you access or use triestia.com.
By using Triestia, you acknowledge these terms. If you do not agree with them, please stop using the website.
1. About Triestia
Triestia is an independent travel guide to Trieste and its surroundings, created by Maxim and Olga.
We visit tourist attractions, beaches, neighbourhoods and local businesses, take original photographs and, whenever reasonably possible, check information firsthand.
Some content is based on research using official websites and other sources rather than a personal visit. We do not present researched information as firsthand experience when it is not.
2. Informational purpose
The content on Triestia is provided for general travel-planning and informational purposes.
It does not constitute legal, medical, safety, financial or other professional advice. You remain responsible for your travel arrangements, decisions and personal safety.
3. Accuracy and changes
We make reasonable efforts to provide useful and accurate information. However, travel information can change without notice.
This includes:
- opening hours and seasonal schedules;
- admission prices;
- parking tariffs and restrictions;
- public transport schedules;
- accessibility and available facilities;
- menus and prices;
- accommodation conditions;
- local regulations;
- temporary closures;
- weather and sea conditions.
We do not guarantee that all information will always be complete, current or free from error.
Before travelling or making a purchase, booking or other important decision, you should verify essential information directly with the relevant attraction, restaurant, accommodation provider, transport operator, municipality or other responsible organisation.
4. Reviews and editorial opinions
Descriptions, recommendations and assessments published on Triestia may include the personal opinions of the authors.
Experiences can vary depending on timing, staffing, weather, season, personal preferences and other circumstances.
Businesses and organisations may contact us to propose factual corrections. We reserve editorial control over all content and are not required to remove an honestly expressed opinion merely because it is unfavourable.
5. Independence and commercial relationships
Unless clearly stated otherwise, Triestia is not officially connected with, endorsed by or acting on behalf of the attractions, restaurants, hotels, booking services or other organisations mentioned on the website.
If content is sponsored, paid for, created following a complimentary visit or contains an affiliate relationship, we will disclose that relationship where appropriate.
Triestia does not currently accept bookings or payments on behalf of the businesses described on the website.
6. External links
Triestia contains links to third-party websites for convenience and additional information.
We do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their availability, security, content, privacy practices, prices, products, services or contractual terms.
A link does not necessarily constitute an endorsement. Any transaction or agreement entered into with a third party is solely between you and that third party.
7. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Triestia and its authors will not be liable for losses or damages resulting solely from:
- reliance on outdated or incomplete travel information;
- changes made by third-party businesses or public authorities;
- the use or unavailability of third-party websites;
- cancellations, delays, closures or changes in services;
- personal travel decisions made by a visitor.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by law, including liability arising from fraud, intentional misconduct or other liability that cannot legally be excluded.
8. Safety
Travel, swimming, hiking, cycling and other activities may involve risks.
Conditions can change rapidly. Follow posted signs, official warnings, weather alerts, lifeguard instructions and directions from competent authorities.
The inclusion of a beach, route, attraction or activity on Triestia does not constitute a guarantee that it is safe or suitable for every visitor.
