Terms of Service
Last updated: 19 April 2026
Map of Iceland is a travel utility platform and affiliate partner. We help you discover Iceland, plan trips, and book rentals and tours through trusted partners. The actual rental or tour contract is between you and our partner (KeyCar, Tourdesk, etc.) — not with us.
Who we are
Map of Iceland (mapoficeland.is) is an Iceland travel platform operated from Iceland. Contact: info@mapoficeland.is.
What we do
We provide free access to:
- Iceland POI database (waterfalls, hot springs, volcanoes, hikes, campsites, and more)
- Live data (weather, road conditions, aurora forecast, fuel prices, webcams)
- Trip planning tools and itinerary builder
- AI-assisted travel guidance
- Affiliate links to rentals, tours, and accommodation
Acceptable use
- Don't scrape our content for republication.
- Don't use the AI chat to generate harmful, illegal, or copyrighted content.
- Don't spam our community features (comments, photo uploads, reviews).
- Don't bypass rate limits or attempt to overload the platform.
We reserve the right to suspend accounts that violate these rules.
Bookings and partner liability
When you book a rental car or tour through one of our partner links:
- The booking contract is between you and the partner (KeyCar for cars/campers, Tourdesk for tours, etc.).
- We pass minimum-necessary information (name, email, dates) to the partner so they can process your booking.
- Cancellation, refund, dispute, and damage policies are set by the partner, not by us.
- We earn a commission on successful bookings. This is disclosed transparently and never affects your price.
- If a partner mishandles your booking, contact them first. We'll help mediate if needed but the legal liability sits with them.
User-generated content
If you upload photos, write reviews, or post comments:
- You retain copyright over your content.
- You grant us a non-exclusive license to display your content on the platform with attribution.
- We may remove content that violates the law, infringes third-party rights, or violates our community standards.
Liability disclaimer
We strive for accuracy but cannot guarantee the platform is error-free. Specifically:
- Live data (weather, road conditions, aurora) is sourced from public APIs and may be delayed or wrong. Always verify critical info with official sources before driving.
- POI information (opening hours, accessibility, prices) may be out of date. Call ahead for anything time- or money-critical.
- AI-generated content may contain errors or hallucinations. Use as a starting point, not as gospel.
- Iceland is wild. Weather changes fast, roads close, conditions are demanding. You travel at your own risk and are responsible for your own safety.
Governing law
These terms are governed by Icelandic law. Disputes go to Icelandic courts.
Changes
If we materially change these terms, we'll email subscribers and update the "Last updated" date.
