Terms & Conditions

Last updated: January 29, 2026

These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) form a legally binding agreement between you and Hotel’s Future (“Hotel’s Future,” “we,” “us,” “our”) governing your purchase of, access to, and use of our standalone digital revenue management simulator scenario and related materials (collectively, the “Simulator”).

1. Introduction

The Simulator is an interactive educational product designed to help learners practice hospitality revenue management decision-making through simulated booking requests and analytics/reporting.

These Terms apply only to the Simulator offer described at checkout and do not govern any future membership subscriptions, learning paths, or broader platform features unless and until you separately agree to additional terms.

1.1 Acceptance of Terms

By purchasing, accessing, or using the Simulator, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy (incorporated by reference, if presented/available where you purchase or access the Simulator). If you do not agree, do not purchase or use the Simulator.

Hotel’s Future is operated and managed by Zdenek Kures, self‑employed freelancer.

2. Definitions

“Simulator” means the specific interactive scenario/simulation, including the PMS-like booking decision flow, analytics/reporting pack, checklists, notepad/notes features (if available), and any accompanying instructional materials made available with your purchase.
“Scenario” means a particular simulation configuration and dataset used within the Simulator
“Content” means all text, data, templates, reports, visualizations, files, videos, documents, scenario logic, configurations, and other materials provided through the Simulator.
“User” or “you” means any person who purchases, accesses, or uses the Simulator.
“Tips” means loyalty points that may be issued by Hotel’s Future for eligible activities or as a refund mechanism (if offered for this Simulator).
“Refund in Tips” means a refund issued as Tips credited to your account, not cash, not transferable, and redeemable only as described at the time of issue and/or in applicable program rules.

3. Changes to Terms

We may modify these Terms by posting updated Terms where the Simulator is offered or accessed. Changes apply:

immediately for new purchases after posting; and
30 days after posting for existing users with access.

Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.

4. Eligibility and Access

4.1 Age Requirements

You must be at least 18 to purchase the Simulator. If you are at least 16 but under 18, you may use the Simulator only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian.

4.2 Account (if required)

If access requires an account, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and keep it updated. You are responsible for safeguarding your credentials and all activity under your account.

4.3 One User / One Access

Simulator access is licensed to a single individual (the account holder). You may not share, sell, transfer, sublicense, assign, or otherwise provide access to any other person.

5. Purchase Terms, Pricing, and Taxes

5.1 Pricing

Prices are displayed at checkout in USD and are inclusive of applicable taxes, unless clearly stated otherwise at checkout.

5.2 Payment

Payment is due in full at the time of purchase. We may use third‑party payment processors. You agree to their terms and conditions when you complete the payment. We do not store full payment card details on our servers.

5.3 Lifetime Access

If the product page/checkout states “lifetime access,” this means access for the lifetime of the Simulator offering, i.e., for as long as we continue to make the Simulator available for access in substantially the same form. Lifetime access is not a guarantee that the Simulator will be available forever and does not mean access for your lifetime regardless of product discontinuation, platform changes, legal requirements, or technical constraints.

We may modify, update, suspend, discontinue, or replace the Simulator (including its datasets, reports, modules, UI, or underlying logic) at any time. Where reasonably practicable, we will aim to maintain access for users who purchased lifetime access; however, we do not guarantee uninterrupted or perpetual availability.

If we permanently discontinue the Simulator, we may, at our discretion, provide you with access to a materially equivalent replacement experience and/or issue a reasonable credit or Refund in Tips for the discontinued Simulator, subject to applicable law and these Terms.

5.4 Launch Credit Offer (Direct Purchases Only)

If you purchase the Simulator directly from Hotel’s Future (i.e., not via Udemy or any other third‑party marketplace), you may be eligible for our “Risk‑Free when you buy direct” launch offer. Under this offer, we will credit 100% of your purchase price back to your account as Tips at the time of the official launch of the Hotel’s Future platform (the “Launch”). Tips credited under this offer are not cash, are non-transferable, and may only be redeemed on Hotel’s Future as permitted at Launch.

This offer applies only to direct purchases and does not apply to purchases made through third‑party platforms (including Udemy). Third‑party purchases are subject to the third party’s billing and refund rules, and we cannot issue Tips credits for those transactions.

We reserve the right to refuse, reverse, or withhold Tips credits where we reasonably suspect fraud, chargebacks, abuse, account sharing, or other violations of these Terms.

Tips under this offer will be credited at Launch and require an active account in good standing at that time.

6. License and Acceptable Use

6.1 License Grant

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Simulator solely for your personal, non-commercial educational purposes.

6.2 Restrictions (No Copying / No Redistribution / No Reverse Engineering)

You may not, and may not permit others to:

copy, reproduce, distribute, publicly display, publish, or sell any Simulator Content;
record, scrape, extract, or systematically download Content (including datasets, reports, screenshots in bulk, scenario configurations, or evaluation logic) except for reasonable personal notes;
create derivative works from the Simulator or Content;
reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive source code, scenario logic, formulas, evaluation criteria, or underlying data structures;
bypass, disable, or circumvent access controls, licensing checks, or security features;
use the Simulator for any commercial purpose (including internal corporate training) unless expressly agreed in writing by us.

6.3 Notes / Notepad (if available)

If the Simulator provides a notepad/notes feature, you may use it to store your personal learning notes. You remain responsible for what you enter, and you should not enter confidential third‑party data you are not authorized to share.

7. Refund Policy (Simulator)

Because the Simulator is a digital product with immediate access, refunds are limited as follows.

7.1 Refund in Tips (Standard Policy)

Because the Simulator is a digital product with immediate access, cash refunds are not available. If you are not satisfied, you may submit a request for a Refund in Tips within 14 days of purchase, provided that: (a) your usage is below 20% of the Simulator experience (measured by progress/completions/time/activities as reasonably determined by our systems), and (b) we do not detect refund abuse or policy circumvention.

If approved, the Refund in Tips will be credited at the time of the official launch of the Hotel’s Future platform (Launch) (not immediately). Refunds are issued exclusively as Tips, are not cash, and are non-transferable. If cashback Tips or promotional benefits were awarded for the purchase, the refunded Tips amount may be reduced by the value already awarded.

Upon approval of a refund, your access to the Simulator will be revoked immediately.

7.2 Abuse Prevention

We reserve the right to deny any refund (including Refunds in Tips), revoke awarded Tips (including cashback), and/or suspend or terminate access if we suspect abuse, including repeated refund requests, excessive consumption prior to refund, fraud, sharing access, or other suspicious activity.

7.3 EU/EEA/UK Digital Content Notice

Where applicable, by purchasing and accessing the Simulator, you expressly consent to immediate access to digital content and acknowledge that your right of withdrawal may be limited or lost once performance has begun, as permitted by applicable law—subject always to any mandatory consumer rights that cannot be excluded.

7.4 Tips Availability and Timing

You acknowledge that Tips functionality may not be available prior to Launch. Any Tips credits owed under these Terms (including Refunds in Tips and any promotional Tips credits) will be issued only once Tips are available and operational at Launch. If we reasonably determine that an account is ineligible due to fraud, chargebacks, access sharing, or other violations of these Terms, we may withhold or reverse Tips credits.

8. Educational Nature; Simulator Limitations

The Simulator is an educational training environment. It may simplify reality and may not model all real-world hotel dynamics. For example, the Scenario may intentionally exclude cancellations, no-shows, or overbooking in order to focus learning on core decision-making and RevPAR optimization.

You are solely responsible for how you apply any learning from the Simulator in real business contexts.

9. Intellectual Property

All rights, title, and interest in and to the Simulator and Content (including scenario design, datasets, reports, workflow, UI, and evaluation logic) are owned by Hotel’s Future and/or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

“Hotel’s Future” and associated names/logos are trademarks and may not be used without prior written permission.

10. User Content (If You Submit Any)

If the Simulator allows you to submit content (e.g., comments, reviews, notes shared to others, uploads) (“User Content”), you represent you have the rights to submit it and it does not violate law or third-party rights.

To operate and improve the Simulator, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, and display User Content only as necessary to provide the Simulator and related support and operations.

We may remove User Content that violates these Terms.

11. Third-Party Links and Services

The Simulator may include links to third-party resources. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party content, products, or services.

12. Termination and Suspension

12.1 By You

You may stop using the Simulator at any time.

12.2 By Us

We may suspend or terminate your access without notice if we reasonably believe you violated these Terms (including sharing access or copying Content), or if required for security or legal compliance.

12.3 Effect of Termination

Upon termination/expiration:

your license ends and access may be revoked;
any outstanding payment obligations remain; and
provisions that by their nature should survive will survive (including IP, disclaimers, limitation of liability, dispute resolution, and indemnity).

13. Disclaimers

THE SIMULATOR AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON‑INFRINGEMENT.

We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any content, forecasts, benchmarks, or simulated outputs, nor any specific learning or business outcomes.

We do not warrant uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free operation.

14. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HOTEL’S FUTURE AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, OR GOODWILL.

IN NO EVENT SHALL HOTEL’S FUTURE’S TOTAL LIABILITY EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE SIMULATOR IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some limits may not apply to you.

15. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Hotel’s Future and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of your access to or use of the Simulator, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of another.

16. Dispute Resolution

16.1 Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Czech Republic (Czechia), without regard to conflict of law principles.

16.2 Arbitration

Any dispute arising from these Terms shall be resolved through binding arbitration conducted by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) International Court of Arbitration under its rules. The arbitration shall take place in Prague, Czechia, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

16.3 Class Action Waiver

You and Hotel’s Future agree to bring claims only in your individual capacities, not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.

16.4 Injunctive / Equitable Relief

Nothing prevents either party from seeking injunctive or equitable relief for data security, intellectual property infringement, or unauthorized access.

17. General Provisions

Entire Agreement: These Terms (and any incorporated policies) constitute the entire agreement for the Simulator.
Severability: If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder remains effective.
No Waiver: Failure to enforce is not a waiver.
Assignment: You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign without restriction.
