When creating a Listing through the Platform you must (i) provide complete and accurate information about your property (such as listing description, location, and calendar availability), (ii) disclose any deficiencies, restrictions (such as house rules) and requirements that apply and (iii) provide any other pertinent information requested by Us. You are responsible for keeping your Listing information (including calendar availability) up-to-date at all times.

 

You are solely responsible for setting a price (including any Taxes if applicable) for your Listing (“Listing Fee”). Once a Traveler requests a booking of your Listing, you may not request that the Traveler pays a higher price than in the booking request.

Pictures, animations or videos (collectively, “Images”) used in your Listings must accurately reflect the quality and condition of your Host Services. We reserve the right to require that Listings have a minimum number of Images of a certain format, size and resolution.

 

The placement and ranking of Listings in search results on the may vary and depend on a variety of factors, such as search parameters, Travelers preferences, Host requirements, reservation history, price and calendar availability, number and quality of Images, customer service and cancellation history, reviews and ratings, ease of booking, and other factors that we may deem important to the User experience from time to time.

You also agree to pay the applicable Host Fee and any applicable Taxes, which will be collected pursuant to the Payments Terms.

 

We recommend that Hosts obtain appropriate insurance for their Host Services. Please review any respective insurance policy carefully, and in particular make sure that you are familiar with and understand any exclusions to, and any deductibles that may apply for, such insurance policy, including, but not limited to, whether or not your insurance policy will cover the actions or inactions of Traveler (and the individuals the Traveler has booked for, if applicable) while staying at your Accommodation or participating in other Host Service.

 

Notwithstanding the provision of direct communication tools to Hosts and Travelers, we have no responsibility for or otherwise any involvement in the communications between Hosts and Travelers.

 

Terms applicable to Co-Hosts

 

We may enable Hosts to authorize other users (“Co-Hosts”) to administer the Host’s Listing(s), and to bind the Host and take certain actions in relation to the Listing(s) as permitted by the Host, such as accepting booking requests, messaging and welcoming Travelers, and updating the Listing Fee and calendar availability (collectively, “Co-Host Services”). Any agreement formed between Host and Co-Host may not conflict with these Terms of Use and the Payments Terms. Co-Hosts may only act in an individual capacity and not on behalf of Rentalslew or other organization, unless expressly authorized by Us. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to limit the number of Co-Hosts a Host may invite for each Listing and to limit the number of Listings a Co-Host may manage.

 

Hosts and Co-Hosts may agree on a fee (“Co-Host Services Fee”) in consideration for the Co-Host Services provided by the Co-Host. When such an agreement is made, the Host agrees to pay the Co-Host Services Fee for any confirmed booking of their Listing, which will be deducted directly from the Listing Fee after deduction of any applicable Host Fee. In addition, Hosts may instruct a Co-Host to provide certain one-time services in relation to their Listing. Hosts can pay Co-Hosts for one-time services and any other expenses using the Resolution Center.

 

Hosts and Co-Hosts agree that each activity, booking, or other transaction reported on the Platform, including any Co-Host Services provided by the Co-Host and any amounts due from a Host to the Co-Host for the provision of such services, will be deemed accurate, correct and binding, unless challenged, by notifying the other person and Rentalslew (by emailing contact@rentalslew.com ), within 21 days of posting of the disputed activity, booking or other transaction on the Platform.

 

Hosts should exercise due diligence and care when deciding who to add as a Co-Host to their Listing(s). Hosts remain solely responsible and liable for any and all Listings and User Content published on the Platform, including any Listing created by a Co-Host on their behalf. Further, Hosts remain responsible and liable for their own acts and omissions, including, but not limited to, conduct that causes harm or damage to the Co-Host(s). Co-Hosts remain responsible and liable for their own acts and omissions when engaging in their roles and responsibilities as a Co-Host, including, but not limited to, conduct that causes harm or damage to the Host. In addition, both Host and Co-Host are jointly responsible and severally liable for third party claims, including Traveler claims, arising from the acts and omissions of the other person as related to hosting activities, communications with Guests, and the provision of any Co-Host Services.

 

Unless agreed otherwise by Host and Co-Host, Host and Co-Host may terminate the Co-Host agreement at any time. In addition, both Host and Co-Host acknowledge that their Co-hosting relationship will terminate in the event that Rentalslew (i) terminates the Co-Host service or (ii) terminates either party’s participation in the Co-Host service. When the Co-Host agreement is terminated, the Host will remain responsible for all of the Co-Host’s actions prior to the termination, including the responsibility to fulfill any pending or future bookings initiated prior to the termination. When a User is removed as a Co-Host, that User will no longer have access to any Host or Guest information related to the applicable Host’s Listing(s).

 

As a Co-Host, you will not be reviewed by Travelers, meaning that your Co-Host activities will not affect your Reviews or Ratings for other Listings for which you are a Host. Instead, the Host of such Listing(s) will be reviewed by Guests (including potentially on the basis of the Co-Host’s conduct and performance). Hosts acknowledge that Reviews and Ratings from Guests for their Listing(s) may be impacted by a Co-Host’s conduct and performance.

All applicable fees, including the Listing Fee, Security Deposit (if applicable), Traveler Fee and any applicable Taxes (collectively, “Total Fees”) will be presented to you prior to booking a Listing. You agree to pay the Total Fees for any booking requested in connection with your Rentalslew Account.

 

Upon receipt of a booking confirmation from us, a legally binding agreement is formed between you and your Host, subject to any additional terms and conditions of the Host that apply, including in particular the applicable Cancellation Policy and any rules and restrictions specified in the Listing. Rentalslew Payments will collect the Total Fees at the time of the booking request or upon the Host’s confirmation pursuant to the Payments Terms.

 

If you book a Listing on behalf of additional travelers, you are required to ensure that every additional Traveler meets any requirements set by the Host, and is made aware of and agrees to these Terms of Use and any terms and conditions, rules and restrictions set by the Host.

Booking Accommodations

 

You agree that a confirmed booking of an accommodation (“Accommodation Booking”) is a limited license granted to you by the Host to enter, occupy and use the Accommodation for the limited duration of the Accommodation Booking, during which time the Host (only where and to the extent permitted by applicable law) retains the right to re-enter the Accommodation, in accordance with your agreement with the Host.

 

You agree to leave the Accommodation no later than the checkout time that the Host specifies in the Listing or such other time as mutually agreed upon between you and the Host. If you stay past the agreed upon checkout time without the Host’s consent (“Overstay”), you no longer have a license to stay in the Accommodation and the Host is entitled to make you leave in a manner consistent with applicable law. In addition, you agree to pay, if requested by the Host, for each twenty-four (24) hour period (or any portion thereof) that you Overstay, an additional nightly fee of up to two (2) times the average nightly Listing Fee originally paid by you to cover the inconvenience suffered by the Host, plus all applicable Traveler Fees, Taxes, and any legal expenses incurred by the Host to make you leave (collectively, “Overstay Fees”). Overstay Fees for late checkouts on the checkout date that do not impact upcoming bookings may be limited to the additional costs incurred by the Host as a result of such Overstay. Rentalslew Payments will collect Overstay Fees from you pursuant to the Payments Terms. A Security Deposit, if required by a Host, may be applied to any Overstay Fees due for a Traveler’s Overstay.

 

Listing Accommodations

 

Host may only list one Accommodation per Listing. Host may choose to require a security deposit for their Listings, each Listing will specify whether a security deposit is required for the applicable Listing (“Security Deposit”). Hosts are not allowed to ask for a Security Deposit after a booking has been confirmed or outside of the Platform. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to address Hosts’ requests and claims related to Security Deposits, but We are not responsible for administering or accepting any claims by Hosts related to Security Deposits.

 

You represent and warrant that you own the Accommodation or are duly authorized to arrange for use and occupancy of the Accommodation by way of license to occupy (as principal and not as agent).

 

You represent and warrant that any Listing you post and the booking of, or a Traveler’s stay at, an Accommodation will (i) not breach any agreements you have entered into with any third parties, such as homeowners association, condominium, or other agreements, and (ii) comply with all applicable laws (such as zoning laws), Tax requirements, and other rules and regulations (including having all required permits, licenses and registrations). As a Host, you are responsible for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of any individuals who reside at or are otherwise present at the Accommodation at your request or invitation, excluding the Traveler (and the individuals the Traveler invites to the Accommodation, if applicable).

 

Booking Modifications, Cancellations and Refunds, Resolution Center

 

Hosts and Travelers are responsible for any modifications to a booking that they make via the Platform or direct Rentalslew customer service to make (“Booking Modifications”), and agree to pay any additional Listing Fees, Host Fees or Traveler Fees and/or Taxes associated with such Booking Modifications.

 

Guests can cancel a confirmed booking at any time subject to the Listing’s Cancellation Policy, and Rentalslew Payments will provide any refund to the Traveler in accordance with such Cancellation Policy. Unless extenuating circumstances exist, any amounts due to the Host under the applicable Cancellation Policy will be remitted to the Host by Rentalslew Payments pursuant to the Payments Terms.

 

If a Host cancels a confirmed booking, the Guest will receive a full refund of the Total Fees for such booking and Rentalslew may publish an automated review on the Listing cancelled by the Host indicating that a booking was cancelled. In addition, Rentalslew may (i) keep the calendar for the Listing unavailable or blocked for the dates of the cancelled booking, and/or (ii) impose a cancellation fee, unless the Host has a valid reason for cancelling the booking pursuant to Rentalslew’s Extenuating Circumstances Policy or has legitimate concerns about the Traveler’s behavior.

 

In certain circumstances, We may decide, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary to cancel a confirmed booking and make appropriate refund and payout decisions. This may be for reasons set forth in Rentalslew’s Extenuating Circumstances Policy or (i) where We believe in good faith, while taking the legitimate interests of both parties into account, this is necessary to avoid significant harm to Us, other Users, third parties or property, or (ii) for any of the reasons set out in these Terms of Use.

 

If a Traveler suffers a Travel Issue pursuant to the Guest Refund Policy, Rentalslew may determine, in its sole discretion, to refund the Guest part or all of the Total Fees in accordance with the Guest Refund Policy.

 

Users may use the Resolution Center to send or request money for refunds, additional Host Services, Co-Host Services or Damage Claims related to bookings. You agree to pay all amounts sent through the Resolution Center in connection with your Rentalslew Account, and Rentalslew Payments will handle all such payments pursuant to the Payments Terms.

 

For unexpected canceled work assignments speak with Host first and refer to – contract between you and the host to know your options if unresolved contact us at contact@rentalslew.com

Ratings and Reviews

 

Within a certain time frame after completing a booking, Guests and Hosts can leave a public review (“Review”) and submit a star rating (“Rating”) about each other. Any Ratings or Reviews reflect the opinion of individual Users and do not reflect Our opinion. Ratings and Reviews are not verified by Us for accuracy and may be incorrect or misleading.

 

Ratings and Reviews by Guests and Hosts must be fair, truthful and factual and may not contain any offensive or defamatory language. Ratings and Reviews must comply with Rentalslew’ Content Policy and Extortion Policy.

 

Users are prohibited from manipulating the Ratings and Reviews system in any manner, such as instructing a third party write a positive or negative Review about another User. Ratings and Reviews displayed on this Platform are intended as only general guidelines, and We do not guarantee the accuracy of the Ratings or Reviews.

Damage to Accommodations, Disputes between Users

As a Traveler, you are responsible for leaving the Accommodation (including any personal or other property located at the Accommodation) in the condition it was in when you arrived. You are responsible for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of any individuals whom you invite to, or otherwise provide access to, the Accommodation, excluding the Host (and the individuals the Host invites to the Accommodation, if applicable).

 

If a Host claims and provides evidence that you as a Traveler have damaged an Accommodation or any personal or other property at an Accommodation (“Damage Claim”), the Host can seek payment from you through the Resolution Center. If a Host escalates a Damage Claim to Rentalslew, you will be given an opportunity to respond. If you agree to pay the Host, or Rentalslew determines in its sole discretion that you are responsible for the Damage Claim, Rentalslew Payments will utilize the Security Deposit to cover the Damage Claim pursuant to the Payments Terms. Rentalslew also reserves the right to otherwise collect payment from you and pursue any remedies available to Rentalslew in this regard in situations in which you are responsible for a Damage Claim.

 

Users agree to cooperate with and assist Rentalslew in good faith, and to provide Rentalslew with such information and take such actions as may be reasonably requested by Rentalslew, in connection with any Damage Claims or other complaints or claims made by Users relating to Accommodations or any personal or other property located at an Accommodation.

 

Taxes

As a Host you are solely responsible for determining your obligations to report, collect, remit or include in your Listing Fees any applicable VAT or other indirect sales taxes, occupancy tax, tourist or other visitor taxes or income taxes (“Taxes”).

 

Tax regulations may require us to collect appropriate Tax information from Hosts, or to withhold Taxes from payouts to Hosts, or both. If a Host fails to provide us with documentation that we determine to be sufficient to alleviate our obligation (if any) to withhold Taxes from payouts to you, we reserve the right to freeze all payouts, withhold such amounts as required by law, or to do both, until resolution.

 

You understand that any appropriate governmental agency, department and/or authority (“Tax Authority”) where your Accommodation is located may require Taxes to be collected from Travelers or Hosts on Listing Fees, and to be remitted to the respective Tax Authority. The laws in jurisdictions may vary, but these Taxes may be required to be collected and remitted as a percentage of the Listing Fees set by Hosts, a set amount per day, or other variations, and are sometimes called “transient occupancy taxes,” “hotel taxes,” “lodging taxes,” “city taxes,” “room taxes” or “tourist taxes” (“Occupancy Taxes”).

 

In certain jurisdictions, Rentalslew may decide in its sole discretion to facilitate collection and remittance of Occupancy Taxes from or on behalf of Guests or Hosts, in accordance these Terms (“Collection and Remittance”) if such jurisdiction asserts Rentalslew or Hosts have an Occupancy Tax collection and remittance obligation. In any jurisdiction in which we decide to facilitate direct Collection and Remittance, you hereby instruct and authorize Rentalslew (via Rentalslew Payments) to collect Occupancy Taxes from Guests on the Host’s behalf at the time Listing Fees are collected, and to remit such Occupancy Taxes to the Tax Authority. The amount of Occupancy Taxes, if any, collected and remitted by Rentalslew will be visible to and separately stated to both Guests and Hosts on their respective transaction documents. Where Rentalslew is facilitating Collection and Remittance, Hosts are not permitted to collect any Occupancy Taxes being collected by Rentalslew relating to their Accommodations in that jurisdiction.

 

You agree that any claim or cause of action relating to Rentalslew’s facilitation of Collection and Remittance of Occupancy Taxes shall not extend to any supplier or vendor that may be used by Rentalslew in connection with facilitation of Collection and Remittance, if any. Guests and Hosts agree that we may seek additional amounts from you in the event that the Taxes collected and/or remitted are insufficient to fully discharge your obligations to the Tax Authority, and agree that your sole remedy for Occupancy Taxes collected is a refund of Occupancy Taxes collected by Rentalslew from the applicable Tax Authority in accordance with applicable procedures set by that Tax Authority.

 

We reserve the right, with prior notice to Hosts, to cease the Collection and Remittance in any jurisdiction for any reason at which point Hosts and Guests are once again solely responsible and liable for the collection and/or remittance of any and all Occupancy Taxes that may apply to Accommodations in that jurisdiction.

Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement

 

Rentalslew is committed to customer satisfaction, so if you have a problem or dispute, we will try to resolve your concerns. But if we are unsuccessful, you may pursue claims as explained in this section. This section lays out: (1) the initial process you must follow by reporting your claim to Rentalslew prior to filing any arbitration or lawsuit in accordance with this section; and (2) binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).

 

Prior to initiating arbitration, you and Rentalslew each agree to notify the other party of the dispute and attempt to negotiate an informal resolution to it first. We will contact you at the email address you have provided to us; you can contact Rentalslew’s customer service team by emailing us at [insert email] (the “Internal Review Procedure”). Your email to [insert email] beginning the Internal Review Procedure must contain the following information: (1) your name, (2) your address, (3) the email address you used to make your reservation, (4) your reservation number, (5) the date of your reservation, (6) the name of the property that you reserved, (7) a brief description of the nature of your complaint, and (8) the resolution that you are seeking (together, the “Required Information”). Additionally, the subject line of your email must state, “Request Under Disputes Provision.”

 

If after a good faith effort to negotiate one of us feels the dispute has not and cannot be resolved informally, the party intending to pursue arbitration agrees to notify the other party via email prior to initiating the arbitration. In order to initiate arbitration, a claim must be filed with the AAA and the written Demand for Arbitration (available at www.adr.org) provided to the other party, as specified in the AAA Rules.

 

You and Rentalslew mutually agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use or the breach, termination, enforcement or interpretation thereof, or to the use of the Platform, the Host Services, or the Collective Content (collectively, “Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration (the “Arbitration Agreement”). If there is a dispute about whether this Arbitration Agreement can be enforced or applies to our Dispute, you and Rentalslew agree that the arbitrator will decide that issue.

 

You and Rentalslew each agree that the following claims are exceptions to the Arbitration Agreement and will be brought in a judicial proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction: (i) Any claim related to actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights; (ii) Any claim seeking emergency injunctive relief based on exigent circumstances (e.g., imminent danger or commission of a crime, hacking, cyber-attack).

 

This Arbitration Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision. The arbitration will be administered by AAA in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified here. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1–800–778–7879.

 

In order to make the arbitration most convenient to you, Rentalslew agrees that any required arbitration hearing may be conducted, at your option, (a) in the county where you reside; (b) in San Francisco County; (c) in any other location to which you and Rentalslew both agree; (d) via phone or video conference; or (e) for any claim or counterclaim under $25,000, by solely the submission of documents to the arbitrator.

 

You may be entitled to seek an award of attorney fees and expenses if you prevail in arbitration, to the extent provided under applicable law and the AAA rules. Unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous or filed for the purpose of harassment, Rentalslew agrees it will not seek, and hereby waives all rights it may have under applicable law or the AAA rules, to recover attorneys’ fees and expenses if it prevails in arbitration.

 

The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court with proper jurisdiction. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only on an individual basis and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim.

 

YOU AND Rentalslew ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AS TO ALL ARBITRABLE DISPUTES.

 

You and Rentalslew acknowledge and agree that we are each waiving the right to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action lawsuit, class-wide arbitration, private attorney-general action, or any other representative proceeding as to all Disputes. Further, unless you and Rentalslew both otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one party’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this paragraph is held unenforceable with respect to any Dispute, then the entirety of the Arbitration Agreement will be deemed void with respect to such Dispute.

 

Notwithstanding the provisions regarding modification of these Terms of Use, if we make changes this dispute resolution and arbitration agreement after the date you last accepted these Terms of Use (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms of Use), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice (including by email) within thirty (30) days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Last Updated” date above or in the date of Rentalslew’s email to you notifying you of such change. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and Rentalslew in accordance with the provisions of the “dispute resolution and arbitration agreement” section as of the date you last accepted these Terms of Use (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms of Use).

 

Except as provided otherwise, this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement will survive any termination of these Terms of Use and will continue to apply even if you stop using the Platform or terminate your Rentalslew Account.

 

Limitation on Time to File Claims

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE PLATFORM MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

Waiver and Severability

No waiver of by the Rentalslew of any term or condition set forth in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Rentalslew to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

Entire Agreement
