This Disclaimer ("Disclaimer") sets out the terms on which One Laplace, Inc. ("we", "us", or "our") makes the editorial travel media website Glos Travel (the "Site") available to you. Please read this Disclaimer carefully before using the Site. By using the Site, you are deemed to have agreed to this Disclaimer.

1. Accuracy of information

We take reasonable care to produce and maintain the content on the Site, but we do not warrant the accuracy, currency, usefulness, completeness, or fitness for any particular purpose of any information published on the Site.

In particular, the following information about travel in Japan is liable to change over time and may not reflect the latest situation at the moment you rely on it:

Before travelling or acting on the information, please verify the latest details with official websites or directly with the relevant operator or government authority. We accept no responsibility for the consequences of actions taken in reliance on the content of the Site.

2. Medical, legal, tax, and financial information

Articles on the Site are intended to provide general information and do not constitute medical, legal, tax, financial, immigration, insurance, or other professional advice. Where individual circumstances require professional judgement, please consult a qualified professional.

3. Links to third-party sites

The Site contains links to websites operated by third parties. The content, privacy policies, and terms of those sites are managed by the relevant third parties and are outside our control. We accept no responsibility for any loss or damage arising from or in connection with your use of any third-party site.

4. Responsibility for your own actions

You use the Site at your own risk. You are solely responsible for any decisions, actions, and outcomes based on the information on the Site, and we accept no responsibility for the following matters:

  1. Any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential loss suffered by you or any third party arising from or in connection with the content of the Site (including changes to travel plans, additional costs, lost opportunity, or emotional distress);
  2. The outcome of any investment, contract, purchase, travel, or other decision based on the content of the Site;
  3. Any malfunction or loss arising on your device in connection with your use of the Site (including malware infection or data loss); and

The foregoing limitations do not apply to loss caused by our wilful misconduct or gross negligence, nor to liability that cannot be excluded under the Japanese Consumer Contract Act or other mandatory provisions of law.

5. Intellectual property

All copyright, trade-mark rights, and other intellectual-property rights in the text, photographs, illustrations, logos, design, source code, and other content on the Site are owned by us or by the respective rights holders.

You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, modify, transmit to the public, or otherwise reuse such content beyond the limits of personal use and other uses permitted under the Copyright Act, without our prior written consent.

Quotations are permitted only when they meet all requirements of Article 32 of the Japanese Copyright Act: the work must have been published; the quotation must be consistent with fair practice; it must be within a reasonable scope necessary for the purpose of quotation; the source must be cited; and the relationship between the host work and the quoted material must be clear (the host being primary).

6. AI-assisted content

Articles on the Site are reviewed by our editors before publication. Where generative AI has been used to assist in producing parts of an article, our editors verify the factual content and the quality of expression before publication, but errors arising from the limitations of AI cannot be entirely excluded. If you notice an error, please let us know via our contact channel.

7. AI-assisted translation

The English-language content on the Site is produced by translating the original Japanese text using AI (machine translation), and is reviewed by our editors before publication. Despite that review, translated content may contain inaccuracies, omissions, or nuances that differ from the original, and we cannot entirely eliminate such discrepancies.

For each article, the original Japanese version is the controlling text. In the event of any discrepancy or inconsistency between the Japanese original and the English translation, the Japanese version prevails. We make no warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy, completeness, or fitness for any particular purpose of any translated content, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we accept no responsibility for any loss or damage suffered by you or any third party arising from reliance on such translated content.

If you notice a translation error, please let us know via our contact channel; we will review and, where appropriate, correct it.

8. Changes, suspension, and termination of the Site

We may change, add to, or remove content on the Site, and may interrupt, suspend, or terminate the operation of all or any part of the Site, at any time and without prior notice. We accept no responsibility for any loss to you or any third party arising as a result.

9. Prohibited conduct

In using the Site, you must not engage in any of the following:

  • Conduct that violates law or public order and morals;
  • Conduct that infringes the rights of us, other users, or any third party;
  • Conduct that interferes with the operation of the Site (including excessive access or scraping);
  • Commercial use of the Site's content without our prior consent;
  • Unauthorised access, transmission of malware, reverse engineering, etc.; or
  • Any other conduct that we reasonably consider inappropriate.

10. Changes to this Disclaimer

We may amend this Disclaimer from time to time. The amended Disclaimer takes effect when it is posted on the Site. For material changes, we will notify you through the Site.

11. Governing law and jurisdiction

This Disclaimer is governed by the laws of Japan. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Disclaimer or your use of the Site shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Tokyo Summary Court or the Tokyo District Court (as appropriate to the value of the claim) as the court of first instance.

If you qualify as a "consumer" under the Japanese Consumer Contract Act, mandatory consumer-protection rights granted to you by that Act or by other mandatory provisions of law are not affected by this clause.
