Rules for Publishing Offers
Last updated: July 24, 2026.
These Rules for Publishing Offers apply to every provider who submits or edits an offer on Navigate Croatia — a boat, a day trip, or both. Their purpose is to keep the catalog accurate, lawful, and safe for guests, providers, and third parties.
The document has a common part that applies to every offer, plus separate sections for boats and for day trips. Confirmation is given per offer and is bound to the version current at that moment.
Common rules
1. What is confirmed when submitting an offer
- the specific offer may be advertised;
- the photos, text, video, and other uploaded materials may be used;
- the description, price, location, availability, and contact details are accurate and up to date;
- the offer is lawful and does not infringe third-party rights.
Confirmation applies to a specific version of the offer. A material change — for example price, capacity, location, description, or photos — requires a new confirmation before the offer becomes public again.
2. How an offer must look
- the offer must describe what is actually being provided;
- the title, description, and photos must not mislead guests;
- photos should show the actual offer rather than generic or third-party images;
- the starting price must be a real starting price for the advertised unit;
- mandatory costs and material restrictions must not be hidden or presented in a misleading way.
3. Prohibited content and third-party privacy
Unlawful, misleading, abusive, or harmful content, as well as content that infringes the privacy or other rights of third parties, must not be published. This includes in particular:
- third-party personal or confidential data without an appropriate legal basis and, where required, consent;
- third-party phone numbers, email addresses, home addresses, identity document details, banking data, or medical data;
- photos of guests, children, crew, licence plates, documents, contracts, or message screenshots unless publication rights are held for them;
- photos, text, logos, or other materials that infringe copyright, trademark, or other third-party rights;
- false claims, unreal pricing, false availability, or other misleading content.
4. AI copy and translations
If AI assistance, automatic translation, or SEO suggestions are used, responsibility for the final content remains with the provider. Any such text must be reviewed before saving and publishing it.
5. Preparation created by our team
Our team may prepare a profile and offers in advance to help a provider get started. Such preparation is not publication: nothing becomes public until the provider claims the account and personally confirms each offer. The provider may edit any prepared offer, decline it, or mark it as not theirs.
6. What the platform may do
Navigate Croatia may reject, hide, restrict, temporarily remove, or permanently remove an offer or account if a breach of these rules, inaccurate data, a privacy violation, third-party rights infringement, spam, a security risk, or other unlawful or harmful content is reasonably suspected. The platform may request corrections, additional information, or supporting evidence before public publication or after a report is received.
Specific rules for boats
- the offer must describe the specific vessel being provided;
- technical details — length, cabins, berths, guest capacity, engine — must match the actual vessel;
- rental terms, seasonal pricing, and mandatory costs must be stated clearly;
- if GPS tracking is advertised, the device must actually be installed on that vessel;
- the offer is submitted for moderation with at least three photos of the actual vessel.
Specific rules for day trips
- the provider is authorised to offer and operate the trip as described;
- applicable legal and safety requirements for carrying passengers and operating the trip are met;
- duration, departure point, guest count, itinerary, and included and excluded items must be accurate;
- if the trip relies on a specific boat, that boat must be owned or lawfully used by the same provider and must be confirmed before the trip is submitted for moderation;
- cancellation terms must be clear and applied equally to all guests;
- the offer is submitted for moderation with at least one photo.
Reports and questions
If clarification is needed or a disputed offer needs to be reported, use the contact form. Include the offer name or link, the reason for the report or request, and, where possible, a short explanation or supporting evidence.
