Welcome to infomapJAPAN. By reading our articles and using our maps, you agree to the terms below. We’ve kept them short and free of legalese so you know exactly where you stand. If anything here doesn’t sit right with you, please don’t use the site.
Informational only
infomapJAPAN is a free travel and culture guide. Everything we publish is general information to help you plan and enjoy a trip to Japan. It is not professional, legal, financial, medical, or safety advice, and it is not a substitute for guidance from a qualified professional or an official source. Use your own judgement, and seek expert advice when your decision warrants it.
Accuracy and your responsibility
We work hard to keep our information current for 2026 and to write clearly about the places we cover. Even so, Japan changes constantly: prices, train and bus schedules, opening hours, seasonal closures, festival dates, and entry rules can all shift without notice.
Before you travel — and again close to the day — please verify the latest official details directly with the relevant operator, venue, or authority. Treat our content as a helpful starting point, not the final word. Decisions about your itinerary, budget, and safety remain yours.
No warranty
The site, its articles, and its maps are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We do not guarantee that the content is complete, accurate, current, or fit for any particular purpose.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, infomapJAPAN is not liable for any loss, inconvenience, or expense arising from decisions you make based on the content — for example, a missed connection, a closed attraction, or an out-of-date price. You use the information at your own risk.
Intellectual property
The articles, maps, illustrations, and original photography on this site belong to infomapJAPAN unless stated otherwise. You’re welcome to read, bookmark, and share links for personal, non-commercial use.
You may notcopy, republish, redistribute, sell, or build a competing product from our content — in whole or in part — without our written permission. If you’d like to feature or reference our work, just get in touch and ask.
Third-party links
Some pages link out to external sites, such as official tourism boards, transport operators, and booking services. We share these because we think they’re useful, but we don’t control them and aren’t responsible for their content, accuracy, or privacy practices. Following an external link is at your own discretion, and that site’s own terms will apply.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time as the site grows or as the law requires. When we do, we’ll revise the date below. Continuing to use infomapJAPAN after a change means you accept the updated terms, so it’s worth glancing back here now and then.
