Fair Use Policy — Barcelona Travel Hacks
Welcome to our Fair Use Policy. At Barcelona Travel Hacks (BTH), we’re committed to empowering travel enthusiasts while protecting the integrity of our content. This page outlines how users can responsibly access and enjoy the assets available on our platform.
✨ What “Fair Use” Means to Us Fair use on BTH refers to respectful, limited access to our content for personal travel planning, inspiration, and enjoyment. Here's what that includes:
✅ Viewing and downloading PDF travel documents for personal use
✅ Browsing images in our extensive galleries (view-only access)
❌ Copying or reproducing images without prior written consent
❌ Automated scraping or bulk downloading of content
How the BTH Coin System Works
💰 How the BTH Coin System Works To make premium content accessible while maintaining fair use, we’ve introduced a coin-based access system:
🪙 Silver Coins (Free Monthly Quota)
New users who log in via Google authentication receive up to 100 free silver BTH coins, prorated based on the days remaining in the month (e.g., 15 days = 50 coins).
If a user logs in at least once during the month, their silver coin balance resets to 100 coins at the start of the next month.
Silver coins expire at the end of each month and do not carry over.
🏅 Gold Coins (Paid Access)
Users can purchase gold coins to extend access beyond the free silver quota.
Gold coins do not expire and can be used anytime.
Coins are spent in this order: silver first, then gold (if available).
Gold coin purchases grant 30 days of ad-free access from the date of purchase.
💡 Additional Notes
Coins are non-transferable and intended for personal, non-commercial use only.
BTH coins are non-refundable and hold no monetary value.
Pricing: 1 euro = 100 gold coins
🎯 Subtle Rewards for Frequent Visitors
At Barcelona Travel Hacks, we value curiosity and consistency. That’s why our coin system is designed to quietly reward users who return often:
🔄 Monthly Silver Coin Reset: Users who log in at least once every 30 days automatically receive a fresh batch of 100 silver coins at the start of each month.
🎟️ Ad-Free Browsing with Gold Coins: Purchasing gold coins not only unlocks more content—it also grants 30 days of ad-free access, making your experience smoother and more immersive.
