Photo Policy
A photo on a travel site implies something: that this is what the place actually looks like. We take that seriously, which is why every image on KidWaypoint comes from one of two sources, both disclosed here.
Where Our Photos Come From
- Official sources. Where a venue provides press or media images - through a media kit, a press page, or a direct request - we use those, credited to the venue and used within the terms they were provided under.
- Licensed stock photography. Where no official image is available, we use licensed stock photos that accurately represent the type of place or activity being described. A stock photo is never presented as a photo of the specific venue it accompanies unless it is confirmed to be an image of that exact location.
We do not scrape images from other blogs, review sites, or social media without a license. We do not use a photo we don't have clear rights to, regardless of how easy it would be to find one.
Every image on the site carries attribution where the license or the source requires it. If you are a venue and want an image credited differently, removed, or replaced with a current one, Talk to Us and we'll handle it directly - usually within a few business days. If you believe a photo is used without proper rights, misrepresents a location, or is out of date in a way that could mislead a visiting family, tell us at
What We Don't Do
We don't generate AI images of real places and present them as photographs. If an illustration or AI-generated graphic ever appears on the site - for a decorative banner, for example - it is labeled as an illustration, not offered as a depiction of a real, specific location. We don't claim a photo shows current conditions at a venue unless we know when it was taken. Where that matters - a seasonal exhibit, a renovated area - we note it or avoid using an outdated image altogether rather than let it imply something no longer true.
