Terms for Customers (Travellers)

As a traveller using SkarduBooking.com, you are responsible for providing accurate and truthful personal information during the booking process. Your booking constitutes a contractual agreement between you and the hotel vendor, and you agree to be bound by the terms of the booking, including payment obligations, cancellation rules, and any property-specific policies.
You are required to review the details of each property carefully before making a reservation. This includes verifying amenities, room types, pricing, location, and the cancellation policy provided by the vendor. Payments made through SkarduBooking.com must be completed using valid and authorised payment methods. Refunds are subject to the vendor's individual cancellation policy and may not be guaranteed in all cases. In the event of a cancellation, you must notify the platform or the hotel within the timeframe stated by the vendor. Last-minute cancellations or failure to show up may result in full or partial charges, as determined by the property.
SkarduBooking.com acts as a booking intermediary and is not the provider of the accommodation or travel service. We are not responsible for the service quality, safety, or satisfaction during your stay. While we may assist in resolving issues or disputes, we are not legally liable for any problems that arise during or after your booking, including service failures, miscommunication, or acts beyond anyone's control, such as natural disasters or political disruptions.
Guests are expected to respect the rules of each property and the cultural norms of the Gilgit-Baltistan region. Any disruptive behaviour, damage to property, or violation of local laws may lead to denied future access to the platform or legal action by the vendor.


At SkarduBooking.com, we are fully committed to respecting and protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your personal information when you use our website or services. By accessing our platform, making a booking, or listing your property, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

In addition, we automatically collect some technical data when you visit the website. This includes your IP address, device type, browser, operating system, and pages visited. This information helps us improve our site performance, enhance user experience, and analyze traffic.


Use of Information

The information we collect is used to manage your bookings, facilitate communication between customers and hotel vendors, process payments, and provide customer support.

However, we do share necessary information with our trusted partners, including hotel vendors, to confirm your bookings and manage reservations. Payment processors and technical service providers may also receive relevant data to complete transactions and operate the website securely.
In the event of a legal requirement, such as a government request, court order, or legal proceeding, we may be obligated to disclose certain personal data. Additionally, in cases where there is a suspected violation of law or terms of use, your information may be shared to protect our rights or the safety of others.


Data Protection and Security

We use secure servers, encryption, and access control protocols to protect your data. We take reasonable steps to safeguard your information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.
