3. Rules for Listings, Events, and Place Submissions

Because Activity Guide is built around user-submitted content, all listings must be honest, relevant, and complete.

When posting an activity, event, or place, you must ensure that:

  • the information is materially accurate;
  • the title, category, location, and description match the offering;
  • prices, dates, availability, contact details, and booking instructions are not misleading;
  • photographs and videos accurately represent the activity, event, or place;
  • you have authority to advertise the business, venue, event, or experience;
  • any required permits, permissions, licences, or approvals have been obtained;
  • any age limits, safety requirements, risks, accessibility limitations, or participation restrictions are clearly disclosed where relevant.

You may not post listings that:

  • are fake, duplicated, irrelevant, or deliberately miscategorised;
  • are created only to drive traffic elsewhere without providing genuine value on Activity Guide;
  • contain keyword stuffing, hidden promotions, or misleading SEO tactics;
  • promote businesses, services, or events unrelated to the stated category;
  • include unsupported medical, safety, or performance claims;
  • create a false impression of endorsement, partnership, sponsorship, or verification by Activity Guide.

4. Safety and Risk-Related Content

Many listings on Activity Guide involve outdoor, sport, travel, wellness, family, or adventure experiences. Because of this, extra care must be taken when publishing safety-related information.

You must not:

  • conceal known hazards or material safety risks;
  • provide false information about qualifications, guides, instructors, equipment, insurance, or safety standards;
  • advertise an experience as suitable for children, beginners, or vulnerable participants if that is not true;
  • encourage unlawful trespassing, reckless behaviour, or unsafe participation;
  • use the platform to organise harmful, dangerous, or unlawful gatherings.

Activity Guide may remove or restrict any content that appears unsafe, irresponsible, or likely to cause harm.

5. Reviews, Feedback, and User Interaction

Where reviews, comments, enquiries, or feedback features are available, you must use them honestly and respectfully.

You may not:

  • post fake reviews or testimonials;
  • post reviews on behalf of others without disclosure and authorisation;
  • offer incentives in exchange for misleading reviews;
  • abuse, threaten, stalk, or harass other users or businesses;
  • publish personal attacks, doxxing, or private/confidential information;
  • use contact forms or messaging tools for spam or unrelated promotions.

By uploading or submitting content to Activity Guide, you confirm that:

  • you own the content or have the right to use and publish it;
  • your content does not violate any third-party rights;
