You may not transfer or sell your Member Account to another party without Hotel Engine’s prior written consent. If you are registering as a business entity, you personally guarantee that you have the authority to bind the entity to this Agreement.

 

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFER OR SHARING OF YOUR MEMBER ACCOUNT OR OF ANY CONTENT OF THE SITE MAY CAUSE IRREPARABLE HARM TO HOTEL ENGINE. AS SUCH, HOTEL ENGINE RESERVES THE RIGHT TO HOLD ANY MEMBER, USER OR ADMINISTRATOR WHO TRANSFERS, SHARES OR OTHERWISE ALLOWS ACCESS TO A MEMBER ACCOUNT OR ANY CONTENT OF THE SITE (INCLUDING NAMES OF SUPPLIERS AND HOTEL PRICING) TO ANY UNAUTHORIZED USER, WITHOUT THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF HOTEL ENGINE, CIVILLY AND/OR CRIMINALLY RESPONSIBLE AND HOTEL ENGINE WILL PURSUE ALL REMEDIES AFFORDED AT LAW, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND MONETARY DAMAGES.  Additionally, Hotel Engine may, without notice or delay, temporarily suspend a Member, User or Administrator, temporarily or indefinitely suspend a Member’s, User’s or Administrator’s account privileges, terminate a Member’s Member Account, deny access to the Site by Member or any of Member’s Administrators or Users, take technical and legal actions to keep a Member and its Users and Administrators off the Site, and refuse to provide services to a Member and its Users and Administrators.

Hotel Engine reserves the right, in Hotel Engine’s sole discretion, to cancel Member Accounts, terminate any Member, Administrator, and/or User from further participation in the Site if Personal Information (defined below) cannot be confirmed as being accurate. Hotel Engine reserves the right to refuse or cancel service to anyone, cancel Member, Administrator and/or User Accounts, terminate any Member from further participation in Hotel Engine.com for any reason and without notice, at any time, so long as such refusal does not violate any applicable law.

 

F. Refunds

Refunds will occur only after the respective Hotel has refunded Hotel Engine. In the event the Supplier does not refund Hotel Engine, the Member or applicable User will not receive a refund. All refunds are subject to the Hotel Engine’s cancellation policy. All disputes regarding Hotel cancellations must be received within 48 hours of the cancellation. Any such dispute not received within 48 hours of cancellation will be deemed to be accepted by Member or applicable User.

If the Hotel provides a partial refund, Hotel Engine will pass along to Member all refunds minus cancellation and termination fees associated with the change to the Hotel reservation.

 

G. Email Communications

By creating your Member Account and accepting the terms of this Agreement, you hereby authorize Hotel Engine to periodically communicate with you via the email address that you provide to Hotel Engine when you set up your Member Account in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

VI. Confirmed Booking Types/Hotel Incidental Charges

A. Prepaid Confirmed Booking

You acknowledge that Hotel rates displayed on the Site are a combination of the pre-negotiated room rate for rooms reserved on your behalf and the facilitation fee retained by Hotel Engine for its services. You authorize Hotel Engine to book reservations for the Total Cost of Booking.

 

Prepaid Confirmed Bookings are paid online at the time of the Confirmed Booking. You agree that your credit card will be charged for the Total Cost of Booking upon submitting your Confirmed Booking.

 

The tax recovery charge is assessed to recover the estimated taxes that Hotel Engine, you, and/or a third party pays to the Supplier in connection with your Confirmed Booking (e.g., sales and use, occupancy, room tax, excise tax, value added and other similar taxes). The balance of the additional amount is a fee that Hotel Engine charges in connection with the handling of Confirmed Bookings.

 

We do not collect and remit the taxes to the applicable tax authorities. The Supplier(s) bill all applicable taxes to Hotel Engine and/or a third party, and Hotel Engine and/or a third party remit such taxes directly to the Suppliers. Taxability and the appropriate tax rate vary greatly by location. The actual tax cost paid to the Suppliers may vary from the tax recovery charge, depending upon the rates, taxability, etc. in effect at the time of the actual use of the Hotels by Members. Service fees retained by Hotel Engine for its services vary based on the amount and type of Confirmed Booking.

 

B. Direct Bill Confirmed Booking

All Prepaid Confirmed Booking terms and conditions set forth above apply to all Direct Bill Confirmed Bookings, except that the Total Cost of Booking for each User will be charged to the Member Account.

 

Direct Bill Confirmed Bookings are billed bi-weekly or monthly to Member and must be paid by Member promptly upon receipt. Any Member Account which has a past due balance of 30 days will be considered delinquent. Delinquent accounts are subject to 18% late-fee penalties and Hotel Engine reserves the right to immediately suspend or terminate Direct Bill privileges by all Users of the delinquent Member. Hotel Engine may utilize automated Member account notifications to inform Members who permit Direct Bill for their Users of upcoming Member Account payments due or of delinquent or past due Member Account payments.

 

Members that elect to enroll in Direct Bill Booking consent to the choice of law and jurisdiction provisions contained within Sections XXI(A) and (C) of this Agreement.

 

C. Administrative Access

Each Member shall have one or more Administrators who have administrative access to such Member’s Member Account. Administrative access allows such Administrator(s) to add new Users, assign Users Direct Bill privileges, set up departments, supply or update a Corporate Travel Policy, view invoices and review travel report data. Member hereby acknowledges that all Users given administrative access to such Member’s Member Account (i.e., Administrators) will have authority to grant Direct Bill privileges to any Users.

 

D. Hotel Incidental Charges

Hotel Engine may, in its sole discretion, cover incidental costs charged by a Hotel relating to a Member’s Hotel stay. Such incidental charges may include, but are not limited to, in-room dining charges, damage charges, parking fees, in-room entertainment, and phone charges. In such an instance, you agree that Hotel Engine may charge the credit card used to charge the Confirmed Booking to cover the cost of such incidental charges. If the credit card used for the Confirmed Booking is no longer valid or the incidental charges are otherwise unable to be processed, Hotel Engine shall send you an invoice for such incidental charges which shall be due within thirty (30) days’ receipt. Additionally, a five percent (5%) convenience fee may be added to the total of such incidental charges.

VII. Supplier Terms and Conditions
A Supplier may apply additional terms and conditions related to the Confirmed Booking(s) and other services provided by that Supplier (“Supplier Terms and Conditions”). You agree to abide by the Supplier Terms and Conditions imposed by the Supplier(s) with respect to your Confirmed Booking(s). Please review the Supplier Terms and Conditions associated with your Confirmed Booking(s).

VIII.  Changes to and Cancellations of Confirmed Bookings
You may cancel or change your Confirmed Booking unless otherwise stated in the Supplier Terms and Conditions. Some cancellations, room-night reductions, or other changes to Confirmed Bookings may result in a service fee charged in USD per room, per night. In addition, if you cancel or change your Confirmed Booking after the cancellation policy period applicable to the Hotel you reserved or after the applicable period provided in the Supplier Terms and Conditions, the Supplier(s) may charge you one night’s room rate, tax recovery charges, service fees or greater penalties based on the Supplier Terms and Conditions. Refunds may or may not be made for no-shows or early checkouts. See the room rate cancellation policies and other terms provided in the Supplier Terms and Conditions for complete details. You agree to pay any cancellation or change fee that you incur and agree that Hotel Engine is not responsible for any additional cancellation or change fee charged to you by Supplier.

IX. Hotel Engine Travel Credit

There are multiple ways in which a Member may be eligible to earn Travel Credit on their Member Account, including but not limited to: (1) invitation of a new Member; (2) purchasing Hotel Engine’s Flex Coverage or subscription to FlexPro; or (3) in Hotel Engine’s discretion in the event of a cancellation. Use of the Travel Credit is governed by the terms of this Agreement.

 

A. Invitation of a New Member

Any Member who refers a new Member to Hotel Engine may be eligible to receive Travel Credit. In order to be eligible to receive Travel Credit, the new Member which you refer must complete the following: (1) create a new Member Account; (2) complete a Confirmed Booking; and (3) must not cancel or request a refund of the Confirmed Booking. In the event that a new Member referred by you does not complete these steps, you will not be eligible for Travel Credit. Once the foregoing steps are completed, the Travel Credit shall be automatically loaded to your Member Account.

 

B. Purchasing Hotel Engine’s Flex Coverage or Subscription to FlexPro

Members may be able to purchase Flex Coverage or subscribe to FlexPro for any Confirmed Booking in accordance with the terms of Section X of this Agreement. In the event that you purchase Flex Coverage or have a FlexPro subscription and need to cancel a Confirmed Booking that is unable to be refunded in accordance with Sections V(F) and VIII of this Agreement, you will receive Travel Credit for such Confirmed Booking in an amount equal to the full purchase price of the Confirmed Booking, inclusive of taxes and fees paid by you. After the cancellation is processed, the Travel Credit shall be automatically loaded to your Member Account.

 

C. Other Cancellations or Issues

Members may also be eligible to receive Travel Credit in the sole discretion of Hotel Engine in the event of special circumstances surrounding a cancellation of a Confirmed Booking or other customer service issue. Nothing contained in this Agreement is meant to create an obligation of Hotel Engine to provide you with Travel Credit and the decision to provide Travel Credit rests solely with Hotel Engine. In the event that you receive Travel Credit pursuant to this Subsection C, such Travel Credit shall be automatically loaded to your Member Account.

 

D. Use of Travel Credit

Members who have Travel Credit on their Member Account may elect to apply them to any Confirmed Booking upon checkout. Any remaining balance owed by you after application of any Travel Credit, including applicable taxes and fees, shall remain your responsibility to pay upon checkout.

 

E. Expiration of Travel Credit

Any Travel Credit loaded to your Member Account shall remain valid for a period of one (1) year from the date which they appear on your Member Account. In the event that you fail to use the Travel Credit within this timeframe, they will be automatically removed from your Member Account. You agree that Hotel Engine is not obligated to provide any additional notice that the Travel Credit will be or have been removed from your Member Account. Further, you agree that Hotel Engine shall have no liability to you whatsoever relating to the expiration and removal of Travel Credit in accordance with this Subsection E.

 

F. Travel Credit and Personal Accounts

In order to earn Travel Credit on a Personal Account, the Member must purchase the Confirmed Booking using their Personal Account. Any Travel Credit or reward points earned by Confirmed Bookings made on accounts linked to a Corporate Customer account shall not transfer to any Personal Account. In the event that a Corporate Customer account is deactivated or removed, any earned Travel Credit or reward points associated with the Corporate Customer account shall not transfer to a Personal Account and shall become void at the time of such deactivation or removal.

 

X. Flex Coverage and FlexPro Subscriptions

Each Member may have the option to purchase Flex Coverage for a singular Confirmed Booking or subscribe to FlexPro, which will provide coverage for all Confirmed Bookings, pursuant to the terms herein. Please note, certain Member Accounts may have configurations set up by the Administrator which does not allow for purchase of Flex Coverage or subscription to FlexPro. Flex Coverage and FlexPro are designed to protect you from cancellation of Confirmed Bookings that fall outside of Hotel Engine’s cancellation policy found in Sections V(F) and VIII of this Agreement. In the event that you purchase Flex Coverage or subscribe to FlexPro and you are unable to cancel the Confirmed Booking under the terms of Sections V(F) and VIII of this Agreement and receive a full refund, you shall receive Travel Credit in an amount equal to the purchase price of the Confirmed Booking, inclusive of taxes and fees paid by you. This Travel Credit will be automatically loaded to your Member Account. Use of any Travel Credit is subject to the terms and conditions found in Section IX of this Agreement.

 

A. Purchase of Flex Coverage for a Single Booking

The cost of Flex Coverage applicable to your single Confirmed Booking will be indicated upon check out. Once purchased, Flex Coverage is nonrefundable regardless of whether it is utilized by you. In the event that your Confirmed Booking is eligible for cancellation and a full refund in accordance with Sections V(F) and VIII of this Agreement, you will not be eligible to receive Travel Credit, nor shall you be eligible for a refund of the cost of the purchase of Flex Coverage.

 

B. FlexPro Subscriptions

Each Member shall have the option of purchasing a subscription to FlexPro cancellation or modification coverage. Members may cancel their FlexPro subscription at any time; however, the cost of the FlexPro subscription is nonrefundable. Cancellation or modification coverage provided by a FlexPro subscription shall only apply to: (1) Confirmed Bookings made after enrollment into the FlexPro subscription; and (2) Confirmed Bookings consumed while the FlexPro subscription is active. Upon termination of the FlexPro subscription or expiration of the FlexPro subscription term, no further cancellation or modification coverage shall be available even if a Confirmed Booking is made when the FlexPro subscription was active. Hotel Engine reserves the right to terminate a Member’s FlexPro subscription in the event that such Member’s cancellation-to-consumed booking ratio exceeds industry standards or, in Hotel Engine’s sole discretion, a Member is abusing the FlexPro program. For Members who purchase a month-to-month FlexPro subscription term, Hotel Engine may increase the price of the monthly FlexPro subscription by providing no less than sixty (60) days’ notice in writing.
