Date of last revision: August 22, 2025
Effective Date: This Privacy Policy is effective for new accounts created on or after August 22, 2025. For existing users, it will take effect on September 15, 2025.
This privacy policy applies between you, the User of this Website and Safara Travel, Inc. (“Safara”, “us”), the owner and provider of this Website. Safara takes the privacy of your information very seriously. This privacy policy applies to our use of any and all Data collected by us or provided by you in relation to your use of the Website.
If you are a resident of California or another U.S. jurisdiction that provides specific privacy rights, you may also have additional rights under applicable state law.
Please read this privacy policy carefully.
This is a legal agreement between you and Safara Travel, Inc. (the “Agreement”). As used herein, “you” means a user of the Site and Services, and in addition, when the user of the Site is a limited liability company, corporation, partnership, or other organization (an “Entity”), the term “you” also includes such Entity. You should carefully read this Agreement, the Safara Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) and the Safara Cookies Policy (the “Cookies Policy”), both of which are incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. By using the Site and Services, you agree to this Agreement. If you have entered into another agreement with Safara, then the terms of that agreement shall control where they conflict with this Agreement.
This Agreement not only governs your use of the Site and Services, but also governs the use of the Site or Services to any person, Entity, organization, or otherwise to which you provide access to use the Site or Services. If you do not wish to agree to be bound by this Agreement, you are not permitted to access the Site or Services. If you access the Site or use the Services, this Agreement will apply to you unless Safara otherwise agrees in writing that some or all of the terms of this Agreement will not apply to you.
Safara reserves the right to change, modify, add to, supplement, or delete any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including the Privacy Policy and Cookies Policy, which are incorporated into this Agreement) at any time and from time to time. Safara will notify you in the event there is a material change to this Agreement, the Privacy Policy, or the Cookies Policy. If any future changes to this Agreement are unacceptable to you or cause you to no longer be in compliance with this Agreement, you must immediately stop using the Site and Services. If you do not agree to the revised terms, your sole remedy is to discontinue use of the Services. Continued use of the Services after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised terms**.**
Safara Travel, Inc. (“Safara”) provides and is responsible for our platform, enabling users to book hotel accommodations (the “Services”). Safara does not provide the hotel stay or manage the properties listed; these are the responsibility of the individual service providers (the “Service Providers”).
Safara takes reasonable care to provide a functional and reliable Platform, but we cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of all information (as we rely on details provided by Service Providers). While we strive to correct any errors or interruptions promptly, to the extent permitted by law, Safara cannot be held responsible for inaccuracies, missing information, or temporary outages and expressly disclaims all liability arising from reliance on information provided by Service Providers.
In order to facilitate your bookings and stays, you acknowledge and agree that Safara may share your information with the hotel(s) with which you make reservations through the Platform, as well as with third-party service providers engaged to support the booking and reservation process. This information may include your name, contact details, booking details, preferences, payment information, and any other information reasonably required to process your reservation, facilitate your stay, or deliver related services. Safara is not responsible for how hotels or third-party service providers use or process this information, and such use will be governed by their own privacy practices.
Subject to your acceptance and compliance with this Agreement, Safara grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, and limited license to use the Site and Services for your personal non-commercial and private use.
You may only use the Site or Services if you are allowed by law to enter into a binding contract in the jurisdiction in which you access the Site and you are in compliance with all applicable, federal, state, and local laws (and all regulations and rules thereunder). However, under no condition may you use the Site or Services if you are under the age of eighteen (18). You may not use the Services if you are subject to U.S. export restrictions or are located in a jurisdiction subject to comprehensive U.S. trade sanctions.
You are responsible for all actions on the Site by you or under your account and for taking all reasonable steps to ensure that no unauthorized persons shall have access to your Site password or account. Without limiting the foregoing: (a) it is your sole responsibility to control the dissemination and use of any login code and password; (b) authorize, monitor, and control access to and use of your Site account and password; (c) promptly inform Safara of any need to deactivate a password; and (d) to update and keep current your contact information. You grant Safara and all other persons or entities involved in the operation of the Site the right to transmit, monitor, retrieve, store, and use any information recorded and/or stored in your account in connection with the Site.
Prices for Services on the Site are displayed without sales tax and all other taxes and fees included unless stated differently on the Site. Any obvious errors and mistakes (including misprints) in a listing are not binding on Safara. Trip itineraries are indicative only and not guaranteed. Safara is not responsible for any fees imposed by your bank, card issuer, or payment provider (including currency conversion fees).
Safara offers a loyalty program (“Safara Rewards”) to eligible users of its Platform. Details of the Safara Rewards program, including eligibility requirements, benefits, redemption terms, and other conditions, can be found at https://www.safara.com/rewards.
Safara reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify, suspend, or terminate any aspect of the Safara Rewards program at any time, including but not limited to:
Any such changes will apply prospectively and may be made without prior notice unless otherwise required by applicable law. Safara is not obligated to provide compensation or replacement benefits for changes to or termination of the program.
Rewards earned through Safara Rewards have no cash value and cannot be transferred, sold, or exchanged for cash, unless explicitly stated in the Safara Rewards terms.
Safara reserves the right to suspend or terminate your participation in Safara Rewards, void earned rewards, or cancel reservations made using rewards if Safara determines, in its sole discretion, that you have violated these Terms, misused the program, engaged in fraudulent activity, or otherwise acted in bad faith. Safara may, in its sole discretion, adjust, revoke, or correct Rewards or account balances in cases of system error, miscalculation, or suspected misuse.
Participation in Safara Rewards does not guarantee access to any specific benefits or rewards. All benefits are subject to availability, as determined by Safara and its partners. By participating in Safara Rewards, you agree to comply with these Terms and the terms set forth at https://www.safara.com/rewards, as they may be updated from time to time.
The Company may sometimes offer incentives for inviting others to the platform through a “Referral Program”. Any incentives or rewards for referring new customers are subject to the restrictions below and any applicable terms of the current referral program, or the sole discretion of the Company.
Referrers cannot refer themselves or create multiple, fictitious or fake accounts with the Company. No User may use the Referral Program to violate any law, infringe or violate the rights of any third party, or otherwise act in a manner that is deemed harassing, harmful, illegal, hateful, obscene or outside the spirit and intent of the Referral Program. In addition, you may not (i) tamper with the Referral Program, (ii) act in an unfair or disruptive manner, or (iii) use any system, bot or other device or artifice to participate or receive any benefit in the Referral Program. This includes but is not limited to a general prohibition on posting of the referral codes on any website which offers the referral code to anyone other than Friends, i.e. individuals to whom you personally know. If we believe that a referral code associated with a User’s account was used in such a manner, we have the right to remove all credit associated with that account, cancel any existing reservations, and remove the User from the Safara Platform. We may pursue any remedies available under law, including civil and criminal remedies.
We reserve the right to cancel, modify or terminate the Referral Program at any time for any reason. We reserve the right to disqualify any User at any time from participation in the Referral Program if we have a good faith belief that he/she has violated any of these Terms.
Safara reserves the right to cancel the Services for any reason by sending a written notice of cancellation to the contact information you provided. All accumulated promotional or reward credits will be forfeited immediately, and therefore, not transferred or reinstated for any reason. Refunds of prepaid bookings, if any, will be handled in accordance with the applicable cancellation policy.
You authorize Safara to facilitate property reservations on your behalf for a total price inclusive of the room rate as displayed, plus taxes and services fees (where applicable). By submitting a booking, you authorize Safara (or its payment processor) to immediately charge your payment method for the full booking amount and any applicable taxes and fees.
You agree that if you cancel or change a prepaid hotel reservation, you will pay any fees associated with that change/cancellation as stated in the booking policy details of the reservation. If there is any remaining refund due, it will be refunded to the original payment method (Safara account credits or credit card).
If you do not check-in for the first night of your reservation but plan to stay for subsequent nights, you must notify Safara Travel, Inc. no later than the check-in time of the initial booking in order to prevent cancellation of your reservation.
Earned credits are account credits offered in exchange for an action on the member’s end (ex. referral credits, cashback on Safara bookings). These credits are valid for 2 years and can be used at any property, any time - there are no blackout dates or redemption restrictions. Credits are not legal tender and have no cash value except as expressly provided.
Offers are periodically granted with the use of specific codes or through the use of specific signup links. Different offers are valid for different periods of time, and may only be redeemed one time per user. A user may not redeem more than one offer per account, and a user may not create multiple accounts in order to redeem offers more than once. If we believe that a User has redeemed multiple offers, we have the right to remove all credits associated with that account, cancel any existing reservations, and remove the User from the Safara Platform.
By providing your email address to Safara, you agree to receive promotional, service, and transactional emails. You can unsubscribe from promotional emails at any time by using the “Unsubscribe” link in the email footer. Unsubscribing from promotional emails will NOT unsubscribe you from service or transactional emails (including, but not limited to, password reset emails, booking confirmation emails, trip reminder emails, etc.).
By providing your mobile phone number to Safara, you agree to receive auotmated, pre-recorded, and marketing, service, and transactional SMS communications. By opting in, you consent to receive automated marketing and service texts. ****Consent is not a condition of purchase.

The entire contents of the Site (including, without limitation, all visual content, audio visual content, text, and the arrangement, sequence, structure, and organization of the Site) are copyrighted under the United States copyright laws and/or similar laws of other jurisdictions. “Safara” and Safara logos are trademarks of Safara and may not be used without the express written permission of Safara.

15.1 You expressly agree that use of the Site and Services is at your own risk and is provided on an “as is” basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including, without limitation, warranties to title or the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement of intellectual property. Without limiting the foregoing, neither Safara nor its affiliates, parent companies, subsidiaries, or any of their directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, third-party content providers, distributors, licensees or licensors, nor anyone who has been involved in the creation, production, or delivery of the Site or Services (collectively, the “Safara Parties”) warrant that the Site and Services, including the information made available through the Site or Services, will be uninterrupted, uncorrupted, accurate, reliable, current, timely, error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that the Site or the server that makes the Site available are free from viruses, worms, Trojan horses, or other harmful components. Safara is not responsible for acts or omissions of hotels or third-party Service Providers.
15.2 To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Safara Parties will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, exemplary or consequential damages, personal injury or wrongful death, lost or anticipated profits, lost data, reputational harm, loss of goodwill, or business interruption, the use or misuse of content in any way whatsoever arising out of the use of, or inability to use, the Site or Services, whether or not the Safara Parties are advised of the possibility of such damages. In the event that the foregoing exclusion of liability is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, the parties instead agree that the Safara Parties will not be liable to you for more than the greater of the amount you have paid Safara in the ninety (90) days immediately preceding the date on which you first assert any such claim or one hundred and zero/100 U.S. dollars ($100.00).
15.3 To the fullest extent permitted by law, these disclaimers of liability apply to any and all damages or injury whatsoever caused by or related to the use of, or inability to use, the Site or Services under any cause or action of any jurisdiction, including, without limitation, actions for breach of warranty, breach of contract, or tort (including negligence).
Subject to this Agreement, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Safara Parties from and against all claims, causes of action, liability, expense, loss, or demand brought against the Safara Parties arising out of your use of the Site or Services or that of any individual you provide access to the Site and/or your breach or alleged breach, or that of any individual you provide access to use the Site or Services, of any term, condition, obligation, representation, or warranty in this Agreement, including by paying all attorneys’ fees and costs to defend such claims and actions and all awards, damages costs, and expenses arising therefrom, or any violation of this Agreement, applicable law, or the rights of a third party**.**
This Agreement and all aspects of the Site and Services will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the United States and the State of Delaware governing contracts entered into and to be fully performed in the State of Delaware (i.e., without regard to conflict of laws provisions) regardless of your location. With respect to any disputes of claims not subject to informal dispute resolution or arbitration (as set forth below), you agree not to commence or prosecute any action in connection therewith other than in the state courts located in the State of New York, County of New York, and you consent to, and waive all defenses and lack of personal jurisdiction and inconvenient forum with respect to venue and jurisdiction in the state courts located in the State of New York.
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to this Agreement (“Dispute”), you and Safara agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding. Such information negotiations commence upon written notice from one person to the other. You will send your notice with attention to Safara at 1920 Hillhurst Ave #V833, Los Angeles, CA, 90027 USA.
If you and Safara are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations within thirty (30) days, either you or Safara may elect to have the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election arbitrate by one party will be final and binding on the other. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. Nothing in this Section prevents you from bringing an individual action in small claims court if your claims qualify.
You and Safara agree that any arbitration will be limited to the Dispute between Safara and you individually. To the fullest extent permitted by law: (a) no arbitration will be joined with any other; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other provisions.
You and Safara agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or Safara’s intellectual property rights; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, privacy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief.
The failure of Safara to require or enforce specific performance by you of any provision of this Agreement or to exercise any right under them will not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of Safara’s right to assert or rely upon any such provision or right in that or any other instance.
You and Safara agree that if any portion of this Agreement, except for Section 17.5, is found illegal or unenforceable in whole or in part by any court of competent jurisdiction, such provision will, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such determination of invalidity or unenforceability without affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other manner or jurisdiction and without affecting the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which will continue to be in full force and effect. If Section 17.5 is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither you nor Safara will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of Section 17.5 found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute will be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction in the state courts located in the State of New York, County of New York, and you and Safara agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the Court.
You and Safara both agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to the use of the Site or Services or this Agreement (including the Privacy Policy and Cookies Policy) must be within ONE (1) YEAR after such claim or cause of action arose or will be forever barred.
Safara operates and controls the Site from its offices in North America. Safara makes no representation that the Site or Services are appropriate or available in other locations. The information provided on the Site is not intended for distribution to or used by a person or Entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject Safara to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons or Entities who choose to access the Site from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.
This Agreement is effective until terminated by either party. You may terminate this Agreement by destroying all materials obtained from the Site, Safara, or any other website or source. This termination right is subject to applicable law. The privileges granted to you under this Agreement will terminate immediately and automatically without notice from Safara if, in our sole discretion, you fail to comply with any term or provision of this Agreement, or if termination is determined to be reasonably necessary due to legal, operational, or business reasons, at our sole discretion.
Neither the course of conduct between the parties nor trade practice will modify this Agreement. Any modification must be made in writing by Safara and, where required, with notice to you. The section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and will not affect its interpretation. You agree that this Agreement will not be construed against Safara as the drafter.
You may not assign this Agreement without Safara's prior written consent, which may be withheld by Safara in its sole discretion, and any assignment without such consent shall be deemed null and void. An instance of an assignment in one case shall not constitute a waiver of consent for any other assignment. Such anti-assignment provision shall not apply to any Entity that has a right to assign its written agreement with Safara relating to the Site or Services.
This Agreement contains the entire understanding between you and Safara and supersedes all prior understandings between the parties concerning its subject matter and cannot be changed or modified by you.
You hereby waive any and all defenses you may have based on the electronic form of this Agreement and the lack of signing by the parties hereto to execute this Agreement.
