16. Program Participation Disclaimer and Travel Risk Notice

ExploringAbroad.com functions solely as an informational platform that aggregates and publishes listings of international opportunities, including but not limited to study abroad programs, volunteer and teach abroad positions, cultural exchange options, and language immersion experiences. We do not operate, manage, endorse, or quality-control any of the third-party programs, organizations, or institutions featured on the Website.

Users are solely responsible for evaluating and verifying the legitimacy, safety, credibility, and suitability of any program or provider prior to engagement. We strongly advise that users independently gather comprehensive information about any program of interest by:

• Requesting official details and documents directly from the program or institution
• Asking specific questions about expectations, accommodations, costs, and safety protocols
• Contacting past participants, alumni, or independent references for testimonials
• Reviewing publicly available feedback, interviews, and ratings
• Consulting with academic advisors, international education offices, or professional mentors before committing to a program

International travel and participation in overseas programs naturally involve a variety of personal, financial, cultural, legal, and health-related risks. These may include, but are not limited to, exposure to communicable diseases, political unrest, unsafe transportation conditions, discriminatory practices, and differing legal or societal norms related to gender, race, religion, or orientation.

Users are strongly encouraged to assess their own risk tolerance, health status, and travel experience before making commitments abroad. It is your responsibility to consider current geopolitical conditions, public health advisories, local laws, and cultural differences before departing for any international destination.

Travel Abroad LLC does not assume liability for any issues, injuries, damages, or losses—whether physical, financial, emotional, or legal—that arise as a result of engaging with any third-party provider or from travel-related experiences. All disputes, claims, or grievances relating to program quality, safety, compensation, or discrimination must be directed toward the program provider or relevant authorities.

17. Risk and Liability Waiver

You understand and agree that participating in any abroad program carries inherent risks, including but not limited to: travel delays, cultural misunderstandings, exposure to diseases, political instability, loss of property, personal injury, or death. These risks may arise from the nature of travel, from third-party providers, or from circumstances beyond anyone’s control.

By using this Website and engaging with any third-party content, you acknowledge that Travel Abroad LLC is not liable for any injury, loss, claim, damage, or any special, incidental, or consequential damages of any kind, whether based in contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise, arising from your participation in such programs or from your reliance on any information provided on this Website.

19. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severable from the rest of these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions. In such a case, the unenforceable clause will be replaced by a valid provision that most closely reflects the intent of the original clause.
