Linking Policy For Travel Agents 

The Terms and Conditions of Use set forth herein apply to the entire group of Company Websites. Many Company Websites contain links to or frames of non-Company Websites. We try to include links and frames only to other sites that are in good taste, but we do not control nor are we responsible for the contents of those sites. Similarly, we cannot guarantee that such non-Company Websites will not change without our knowledge. The inclusion of a link to or frame of any non-Company Websites does not imply the Company's endorsement of the linked or framed sites or their content. Any concerns regarding any such service or resource, or any link thereto, should be directed to the particular service or resource 

The Company encourages links to its Internet sites by bona fide travel agents. Any such links to a Company Website must conform to the following rules:

Unless the Company provides you, the travel agent, with prior authorization in writing, any link to a Company Website must use one of the logos (displayed at right) which are protected by trademark law. 

The Company grants you a limited license to use these logos, but does not transfer title in these logos to you. The logos may only be used as an active link to the appropriate Royal Caribbean or Celebrity Cruises site. (Simply right-click on the appropriate logo and save it to your directory.)

• You may not use the above logos to imply that any portion of the Company has sponsored or endorsed your World Wide website without receiving the prior written permission of the Company.
• You may not alter the logos in any way, including proportions or colors, and may not animate or morph the logos to change their appearance.
• You may not use the logos on any site which, in the Company's sole discretion, disparages Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises or their affiliates, or their respective products or services.
• The logos may only be used on World Wide Web pages which, in the Company's sole discretion, make accurate references to the Company and its products and/or services. The logos must be placed on the same page as the reference to Royal Caribbean or Celebrity Cruises and as close to the reference as feasible.
• Any link to a Company Website must only be to that site's home page. As an example, the home page of various Company Websites may be viewed and accessed from the link displayed beneath the logos listed below. No "deep linking" to other pages on a Company Website is permitted without the Company's prior written consent.
• The Company may, in its sole discretion, terminate your right to use these logos at any time. The Company may take action against any use of the logos that does not conform to these policies or that infringes any right held by the Company and will actively seek the recovery of any costs it may incur preventing any such misuse or damages that may result from such misuse.

Other Logos And Graphics

No logos or graphics other than those listed here may be used without the prior written approval of the Company. Any unauthorized use of any materials contained on a Company Website may result in criminal or civil penalties and the Company will actively seek the recovery of any costs and damages it may incur preventing the misuse or misappropriation of its property.
