What this site is

Panama Tropic is a personal site with Panamanian recipes, travel guides to Panama and practical travel tips. Everything here is shared for general information. It isn’t professional travel, legal, medical, nutrition or safety advice. Please read our Disclaimer before you rely on anything from this site. We don’t sell products or services on this site.

Unless stated otherwise, the text, recipes, photos and videos on this site belong to us. You’re welcome to:

  • read, cook from and share links to anything here;
  • print a recipe for your own personal use;
  • pin our images to Pinterest or share our posts on social media with a link back to the original page;
  • quote a short part of a post with a link back to the original page.

Please don’t copy whole posts, recipes or photos to another website, book or social media account, don’t remove our credit from them, and don’t use them commercially without our written permission. If you’d like to use something in a way not covered here, just ask us.

Your conduct

When you use the site, the newsletter, the comments or the contact form, please don’t send spam, malware or anything illegal, abusive or that infringes someone else’s rights. Don’t try to break into, overload or scrape the site in a way that disrupts it. We may edit or remove any comment, and we may block anyone who misuses the site.

Links, ads and affiliate links

The site links to other websites and shows ads from Google AdSense. Some links are affiliate links (see our Disclaimer). We don’t control other websites or the ads that ad networks show, and we’re not responsible for their content, products, bookings or privacy practices. Showing an ad doesn’t mean we endorse the product. Any purchase or booking you make is between you and the seller.

No warranty

We work hard to keep our recipes and guides accurate, but prices, schedules, rules and conditions change, and we make mistakes. The site and everything on it are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, including any warranty that the content is accurate, complete, current or fit for a particular purpose.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we aren’t liable for any loss or damage that comes from using this site or any information on it, including travel delays, missed connections, cancelled bookings, illness, injury, or property damage. Some places don’t allow these limits, so some of them may not apply to you.

Privacy

How the site handles personal information, cookies and ads is explained in our Privacy Policy.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be handled in the state or federal courts located in Cook County, Illinois, unless the law where you live says otherwise.

Changes

We may update these terms from time to time. The date at the top shows the latest version. If you keep using the site after a change, that means you accept the updated terms.
