OVERVIEW
This website is owned and operated by the Responsible Tourism Institute (RTI). Throughout the text, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, “ITR” and “RTI” refer to the Responsible Tourism Institute.
RTI offers this website, including all information, tools and services available on it, to you, the user, conditional upon your acceptance of all the terms, conditions, policies and notices set out here.
By visiting our site and/or purchasing any of our services or downloadable documents, you engage in our “Service” and agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions (“Terms and Conditions”, “Terms”), including the additional terms and conditions and policies referenced here and/or available by hyperlink. These Terms and Conditions apply to all users of the site, including, without limitation, users who are browsers, customers and/or content contributors.
These Terms and Conditions must be read as a whole, together with our Privacy Policy.
Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully before accessing or using our website. By accessing or using any part of the site, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not accept all the terms and conditions of this agreement, you may not access the website or purchase any service. If you access some or all of our services through an offer or proposal, acceptance of that offer or proposal is likewise expressly conditional upon these Terms and Conditions.
Any new downloads, features or tools added to this website shall also be subject to these Terms and Conditions. You can review the most current version of the Terms and Conditions at any time on this page. Amendments to these Terms and Conditions shall be governed by the provisions of Section 22.
SECTION 1 - TERMS OF THE RESPONSIBLETOURISMINSTITUTE.COM WEBSITE
By accepting these Terms and Conditions, you declare that your age at the time of using our services allows you, under your national legislation, to use them with full legal capacity. This may be because you have reached the age of majority, because you are younger but your personal national legislation allows it, or because you are an emancipated minor under your legislation. All of the above applies provided that you have not been declared legally incapacitated and that your legislation is not contrary to the public policy established by the Spanish legislation in force in this regard.
You may not use our services for any illegal or unauthorised purpose, nor may you, in the use of the Service, violate any laws in your jurisdiction (including, without limitation, intellectual property laws).
You must not transmit any computer virus or any other type of malicious code that may in any way affect the functionality or operation of the Service, of any related website, of other websites or of the Internet, nor any code of a destructive nature.
A breach or violation of any of the Terms may result in the suspension or termination of your Services, in accordance with Section 16.
SECTION 2 - GENERAL CONDITIONS
We reserve the right not to provide the service where the user does not comply with the conditions set out in these Terms and Conditions.
You understand that your content (not including payment information) may be transferred unencrypted and involve (a) transmissions over various networks and (b) changes to conform and adapt to the technical requirements of connecting networks or devices. Payment information is always encrypted during transfer over networks. If you would like to know more about how your data is processed and about your privacy, please consult our Privacy Policy.
The headings used in this agreement are included for convenience only and shall not limit or otherwise affect these Terms.
SECTION 3 - ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS AND TIMELINESS OF INFORMATION
The general information published on this website (articles, news and informative content) is provided for information purposes only. It should not be relied upon as the sole basis for making decisions without consulting primary, more accurate, more complete or more timely sources of information. This proviso does not apply to the information on the services that the law requires to be provided before purchase, which we shall keep accurate and up to date in accordance with Section 10.
This site may contain certain historical information. Historical information is necessarily not current and is provided for your reference only. We may modify the general content of this site at any time, with no obligation to update historical information.
SECTION 4 - CHANGES TO SERVICES AND THEIR PRICES
Although we may notify our customers of changes to the prices of our services, the prices shown on this website may be subject to change without prior notice. These changes shall not affect services already purchased, except as provided in the following paragraphs.
We may modify or discontinue the website (or any part of its content) at any time, without prejudice to access to services already purchased. We shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the website that does not affect those services.
The prices shown at the time of purchase of our services have been set in accordance with the regulations in force when they were published on the website and on the payment gateway. However, legislative or regulatory changes —at national, regional or European level— may occur after the service has been purchased and paid for. If such changes impose on RTI additional requirements, new schemes or any other administrative or financial burden that directly affects the service purchased, RTI may propose a justified revision of the applicable prices.
In such a case, RTI shall notify you in writing, at least thirty (30) days in advance, of the nature of the regulatory change, its technical and financial impact on the service purchased and the resulting new financial proposal. You may accept the change or terminate the contract early without penalty by notifying RTI in writing within fifteen (15) days of the notification.
SECTION 5 – SERVICES OFFERED
Our services are offered online through this website or any other domain owned by the Responsible Tourism Institute. We have made every effort to describe the services on this site as accurately as possible. Given their online nature, we cannot guarantee that they are accessible from every location, and they may not work properly in certain geographical areas.
We may limit the offer of some or all of our services to certain geographical regions or jurisdictions, and may limit the number of places available for any service, stating this in its description. Service descriptions and prices may change in accordance with Section 4. We may stop offering any service at any time, without this affecting services already purchased.
SECTION 6 - PURCHASE PROCESS, BILLING AND ACCOUNT INFORMATION
To purchase our services, the user must select them, provide the information requested, accept these Terms and Conditions and complete payment through the means available on the website. Once payment has been confirmed, you will receive confirmation of your purchase and the corresponding invoice by email.
RTI may refuse or cancel an order where any of the following apply: payment has not been completed, the information provided is incorrect or incomplete, there are reasonable indications of fraud or misuse of the means of payment, or these Terms and Conditions have been breached. In such a case, we shall inform you using the contact details provided and, if any charge has been made, we shall refund it in full.
You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase and account information, and to keep it up to date, including your email address and your billing and payment details, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you when necessary.
RTI is an entity established in the Canary Islands (Santa Cruz de Tenerife), and its services are therefore subject, where applicable, to the Canary Islands General Indirect Tax (IGIC). The tax treatment of each purchase depends on where the customer is established:
- Customers established in the Canary Islands: the invoice will include IGIC at the current rate.
- Businesses or professionals established in mainland Spain or the Balearic Islands: the invoice is issued without IGIC or VAT (Article 17 of Law 20/1991 and Articles 69 and 84.One.2 of Law 37/1992). The customer shall account for VAT under the reverse charge mechanism.
- Businesses or professionals established in another European Union Member State: the invoice is issued without IGIC or VAT. The customer shall account for the applicable VAT in their country under the reverse charge mechanism (Articles 44 and 196 of Directive 2006/112/EC).
- Businesses or professionals established outside the European Union: the invoice is issued without IGIC. The customer is responsible for declaring, where applicable, any taxes due in their country.
For this treatment to apply, the customer must provide their tax identification number and, if established in the European Union, their EU VAT identification number. In all cases, the customer is responsible for declaring any tax applicable under their own tax obligations. If the customer is not acting as a business or professional, the taxation applicable under the regulations in force shall apply.
SECTION 7 – THIRD-PARTY TOOLS AND SERVICES ASSIGNED BY THIRD PARTIES
We may provide you with access to third-party tools that do not form part of the services purchased. Such tools are provided “as is” and “as available”, and their use is optional and at your own risk. Before using them, you must make sure that you are aware of and accept the terms on which the relevant external providers supply them.
RTI shall not be liable for the operation of such tools or for their use by third parties. This is without prejudice to any liability legally attributable to RTI and to the rights granted to you under consumer protection legislation.
A service may have been purchased by a third party and assigned to you by means of a code. For example, as part of promotions, prizes or other incentives, or through your connection with administrations, territorial tourism managers (‘destinations’), associations, federations, groupings or similar entities. In that case, for the proper performance of the service, RTI may disclose to the entity that purchased it the services assigned and used, as well as the identification data strictly necessary for that purpose [company name and contact email address]. This processing shall be carried out under the terms described in our Privacy Policy.
We may also, in the future, offer new services and/or features through the website (including the release of new tools and resources). Such new features and/or services shall also be subject to these Terms and Conditions.
SECTION 8 - THIRD-PARTY LINKS
Certain content and services available through our Service may include materials from third parties.
Third-party links on this site may direct you to third-party websites that are not affiliated with us. We are not responsible for examining or evaluating their content or accuracy. We do not warrant, and shall not have any liability for, any third-party materials or websites, or for any other third-party materials, products or services, except where we have actual knowledge of their unlawfulness and fail to act diligently to remove or disable the relevant link.
Subject to the same proviso as in the previous paragraph, we are not liable for any harm or damages related to the purchase or use of goods, services, resources or content, or to any other transactions made on third-party websites. Please review the policies and practices of third parties carefully and make sure you understand them before engaging in any transaction. Complaints, claims, concerns or questions regarding third-party products or services should be directed to the relevant third party.

Reservation of rights. We may ask you at any time to remove all links, or any particular link, to our website, for example where the link is misleading, harms our image or does not comply with these conditions. In that case, you must remove it as soon as possible. We may also amend our linking policy, and the new conditions will be published on this page. By continuing to link to our website, you agree to be bound by and to comply with these linking conditions.
Removal of links from our website. If you find any link on our website that you consider objectionable for any reason, you may contact us. We shall consider your request and, if the link leads to unlawful content, we shall act diligently to remove it. Although we endeavour to ensure that the information on this website is correct, we do not warrant its completeness or accuracy, nor that the website will always remain available or that its material will be kept up to date, without prejudice to Section 10.
Content liability. We shall not be held responsible for any content appearing on a website that links to ours. The owner of that site shall be liable, in accordance with the law, for any claims arising from its content. No link to our website may appear on pages or in contexts containing content or materials that may be interpreted as defamatory, obscene or criminal, or that infringe, or promote the infringement of, third-party rights.

Depending on the information they contain and the way you use your device, they may be used to recognise you.
Technical cookies, which are necessary for the website to function, are installed without the need for consent.

Third-party cookies. This website may use third-party services which, on behalf of RTI, collect information for statistical purposes and on the use of the site. In particular, it uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Details of the cookies used, their purpose and their duration can be found in our Cookie Policy.
SECTION 10 - ERRORS, INACCURACIES AND OMISSIONS
Occasionally there may be information on our site or in the Service that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies or omissions relating to service descriptions, prices, promotions, offers, features or availability. We may correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions and update the information published, subject to the safeguards set out in the following paragraph.
If an error affects a purchase that has already been made (for example, a manifestly incorrect price), we shall inform you and you may choose either to maintain the purchase with the corrected information or to cancel it, in which case we shall refund the amount paid in full.
Except as provided in the previous paragraph and for the information that the law requires to be provided before purchase, which we shall keep accurate and up to date, we undertake no obligation to update, amend or clarify any other general information published on the website. No update date shown in the Service should be taken to indicate that all information in the Service has been modified or updated.
SECTION 11 - PROHIBITED USES
In addition to the other prohibitions set out in these Terms and Conditions, you are prohibited from using the site or its content for the following purposes:
(a) any unlawful purpose;
(b) soliciting others to perform or participate in any unlawful acts;
(c) violating any international, European, national, regional or local regulations, rules, laws or by-laws;

Furthermore, you must not attempt to gain unauthorised access to this website, the server on which it is hosted or any server, computer or database connected to it, nor attack it by means of denial-of-service attacks. We shall report any breach of the applicable regulations to the relevant authorities and cooperate with them.
If you engage in any of these prohibited uses, we may suspend or terminate your access to our services, in accordance with Section 16.
SECTION 12 – CONDITIONS OF ACCESS TO THE SERVICES
The purchase of a service grants a personal, non-exclusive and non-transferable right of access to its content for the period stated in the description of each service before purchase. Each purchase corresponds to a single user. Access credentials may not be shared with or transferred to third parties.
Before purchase, the description of each service will inform you of its content, its duration, its format (access to digital content or live delivery), the technical requirements needed and, where applicable, the type of diploma or certificate of completion issued.
The content of the services is the property of RTI or its licensors. It may only be used for the personal use of the user who purchased it. Its reproduction, distribution, public communication or transformation, in whole or in part, is prohibited without the express written authorisation of RTI.
Access to a service may only be suspended or terminated for breach of the conditions of this section or of Section 11, in accordance with Section 16.
SECTION 13 - WARRANTIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Warranties. RTI shall provide the services with due diligence and in accordance with their description on the website. If you are a consumer, you are entitled to the conformity guarantees granted to you by the consolidated text of the Spanish General Law for the Protection of Consumers and Users, which these Terms do not limit in any way.
Subject to the above, we do not guarantee that access to the website or the services will be uninterrupted or error-free at all times. We may temporarily interrupt access for technical, maintenance or security reasons, and we shall endeavour to keep such interruptions as short as possible. Nor do we guarantee that the results you obtain from applying the content of the services will meet your specific expectations, as these depend on how you apply them.
Limitation of liability. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, RTI shall not be liable for any indirect or consequential damages arising from the use of, or inability to use, the website or the services, such as loss of profits, loss of revenue or business, or loss of data. In any event, our liability shall be limited to damages that were reasonably foreseeable at the time the contract was entered into.
These limitations shall not apply to damages caused by wilful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of RTI, to personal injury, or to any other case in which the law does not permit liability to be excluded or limited.
RTI shall not be liable for the operation or content of third-party tools that do not form part of the services purchased, in accordance with Section 7.
Complaints. If you experience any issue or are not satisfied with a service, you can contact us at info@responsibletourisminstitute.com. We shall review your case and respond to you, without prejudice to the rights set out in Sections 4 and 20 and to any other means of complaint available to you by law (see Section 19).
If you are acting as a business or professional, you must submit any claim within one (1) year from the date on which you became aware, or should have become aware, of the facts giving rise to it. If you are a consumer, the time limits established by law shall apply.
SECTION 14 - INDEMNIFICATION
You shall be liable, in accordance with the law, for any loss or damage you cause to RTI or to third parties as a result of breaching these Terms and Conditions, violating any law or infringing the rights of third parties, including intellectual property rights in the content of the services.
If you are acting as a business or professional, you further agree to indemnify and hold harmless RTI and its branches, subsidiaries, partners, directors, employees, collaborators and suppliers from any claim or demand by third parties arising from such breaches, including reasonable legal fees.
SECTION 15 - SEVERABILITY
If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is found to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed not to have been included, without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.
SECTION 16 - TERMINATION AND SUSPENSION
You may stop using the website at any time. If you wish to close your user account, you can request this at info@responsibletourisminstitute.com or through the Customer Service resources. Closing your account shall not affect the rights of withdrawal and refund set out in Section 20.
RTI may suspend or terminate your access to the services only in the event of a serious or repeated breach of these Terms and Conditions, fraudulent use or any of the prohibited uses set out in Section 11. Unless the seriousness of the breach or a legal obligation prevents it, we shall notify you in advance, stating the reason, so that you can remedy it or submit representations. In such cases, no refund shall be made for the amounts corresponding to the period already used.
If RTI stops offering a service you have already purchased for reasons not attributable to you, it shall notify you with reasonable notice and refund you the proportional part of the price corresponding to the period or content not used.
Obligations incurred by the parties prior to termination, and any clauses which by their nature must remain in force, shall survive termination.
SECTION 17 - ENTIRE AGREEMENT AND INTERPRETATION
Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms and Conditions shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.
These Terms and Conditions, together with the information provided in the description of each service at the time of purchase and the policies published on this website (Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy), constitute the entire agreement between you and us in relation to the use of the website and the purchase of services.
If you are a consumer, any unclear or ambiguous clauses shall be interpreted in the manner most favourable to you, in accordance with consumer protection legislation.
SECTION 18 - GOVERNING LAW
In accordance with Regulation (EC) No 593/2008 on the law applicable to contractual obligations (Rome I), these Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the European Union and, subsidiarily, the laws of the Kingdom of Spain.
If you are a consumer habitually resident in another State, this choice of law shall not deprive you of the protection afforded to you by the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of habitual residence.
SECTION 19 - COMPLAINTS AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
If you have any complaint or claim, you can send it to info@responsibletourisminstitute.com or by post to the address given in Section 27. We shall respond as soon as possible and, in any event, within the legally established time limits. If you are a consumer, official complaint forms are available to you, which you can request from us by the same means.
If you are acting as a business or professional, for any dispute relating to these Terms and Conditions and the services purchased, the parties expressly submit to the courts and tribunals of Santa Cruz de Tenerife (Spain), waiving any other jurisdiction.
If you are a consumer, the competent court shall be the one determined in accordance with the applicable regulations, including the court of your place of residence. You may also have recourse to any applicable out-of-court consumer dispute resolution schemes.
SECTION 20 - RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL
To exercise it, you must inform us of your decision by means of a clear statement sent to info@responsibletourisminstitute.com or by post to the address given in Section 27. To help us process your request, please include the details that allow us to identify your purchase (name, invoice number and date).
We shall refund all payments received from you without undue delay and, in any event, within a maximum of fourteen (14) working days from the date on which you inform us of your decision. The refund will be made using the same means of payment that you used for the purchase, unless we expressly agree otherwise, and at no cost to you.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal.
- Services providing access to digital content: you will lose the right of withdrawal once access to the content has begun, provided that, before purchase, you gave your express consent to access it during the withdrawal period and acknowledged that you would thereby lose that right. We will send you confirmation of that consent.
- Live services or other services: if you expressly request that performance begin during the withdrawal period and then withdraw, you must pay the proportional part of the service already provided up to that point. If the service has been fully performed with your express consent and your acknowledgement that you would lose the right of withdrawal, that right shall no longer apply.
Services purchased by third parties. Where the service has been purchased by a third party and assigned to you by means of a code, any refund request shall, where applicable, be made by the entity that made the payment.
Business or professional customers. The statutory right of withdrawal applies only to consumers. However, RTI will apply the same fourteen (14) working-day refund policy to purchases made by businesses or professionals, provided that the service content has not been accessed and performance of the service has not begun.
Payments to the User. If we owe you any amount, you must provide us with the information necessary to pay it to you. If we make a payment to you in error, we shall inform you and may request its return in accordance with the law.
In all cases, the rights and remedies granted by the legislation in force remain unaffected.
SECTION 21 - DISCLOSURE OF DATA
As a general rule, RTI will not disclose your personal data to third parties, except where required by law or where necessary for the provision of the service, under the terms described in our Privacy Policy.
SECTION 22 – AMENDMENTS
You can review the most current version of the Terms and Conditions at any time on this page. We may update these Terms and Conditions, for example to adapt them to legal changes or to new services.
Amendments shall apply to purchases made from the date of their publication. Earlier purchases shall be governed by the Terms and Conditions in force at the time they were made, unless you expressly accept the new version. If an amendment materially affects a service you are currently using, we shall notify you sufficiently in advance.
The information on the website may only be consulted and printed for personal, non-commercial use.
SECTION 23 - INDUSTRIAL AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
All industrial and intellectual property rights in this website and its content (texts, images, design, logos, trade marks, software and other elements) belong to RTI or to those who have licensed their use to RTI. You may use such content only in the manner expressly authorised by RTI or its licensors. This shall not prevent you from using the website to the extent necessary to consult or copy information about your purchase or the contact details.
SECTION 24 - FORCE MAJEURE
RTI shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations where this is due to events beyond its reasonable control (“force majeure”). Force majeure events include, among others:
- strikes, lockouts or other industrial action;
- civil commotion, riot, terrorist threat or attack, or war;
- fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, epidemic or any other natural disaster;
- inability to use public or private telecommunications systems, widespread Internet outages or failures of hosting providers not attributable to RTI;
- acts, decrees, regulations or restrictions of any government or public authority.
The affected obligations shall be suspended for as long as the force majeure event continues, and the time limit for performing them shall be extended by a period equal to its duration. RTI shall use all reasonable means to bring the force majeure event to an end or to find a solution enabling it to perform its obligations. If the force majeure event permanently prevents the provision of a service already purchased, we shall refund you the proportional part of the price not used.
SECTION 25 - COMMUNICATIONS AND NOTICES
Applicable regulations require some of the information or communications we send you to be in writing. By using this website, you agree that most such communications will be electronic. We will contact you by email or provide you with information by posting notices on this website. For contractual purposes, you agree to this electronic means of communication and acknowledge that communications we send you electronically satisfy the legal requirement to be in writing. This condition shall not affect your statutory rights.
Notices you send to us must be sent to info@responsibletourisminstitute.com or to the postal address given in Section 27. We may send communications to the email address or postal address you provided when making your purchase.
SECTION 26 - ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
You may not assign or transfer the contract, or the rights or obligations arising from it, without our prior written consent, except as provided for services assigned by code in Section 7.
RTI may assign the contract or subcontract part of the provision of the services, for example in the event of a business reorganisation. You will be notified of any such assignment, and it shall not affect your statutory rights as a consumer, nor reduce or limit any guarantees we have given you.
