Home & Own Terms Of Services
Last Updated: April 7, 2020
Welcome to Home & Own. We’ve developed an online marketplace to help you find great spaces and host exceptional events. We tried to make this Services Agreement easy to read and understand. Please take time to read it carefully as it governs your use of our platform to book and list spaces and services.
Services Agreement
We provide a Platform to help users connect with each other to book Spaces and Services but do not endorse any specific Guests, Hosts, Spaces, or Vendors or Vendor Services registered with or offered through the Platform. Any designations or badges provided through the Platform are based on the information we have available to us which may be provided by other users or third parties and which may be inaccurate or out of date and do not constitute endorsement. Each user is independent, and Hosts and Vendors are independent contractors, unaffiliated with Home & Own, that are solely responsible for the character, quality, utility and provision of any Space or Vendor Service they provide or do not provide to you.
This Home & Own Services Agreement (“PSA”) is a contract between Home & Own and the person or entity that registered with Home & Own (“user” or “you”). This Agreement describes the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Home & Own marketplace to book or list spaces or other services through our website or apps, and governs your hosting spaces for other users; and establishes the obligations owed between you and Home & Own, and between you and other users.
If you have questions about this Agreement, please contact us. Your use of the Platform or Services constitutes your ongoing acceptance of this Agreement, as amended.
Section 1: General Terms
1.1 Services
(a) Platform Services. Home & Own is a unique marketplace provider that offers several different services to its users. There are three types of Home & Own users: 1) Guests (our users who use Host Services and/or Vendor Services); 2) Hosts (our users who offer Host Services to Guests); and 3) Vendors (our users or third-parties who offer Vendor Services to Guests). Home & Own connects them all through the Home & Own Platform (“Platform”) which is the online marketplace that allows our users to connect, communicate, and transact with each other directly through “Bookings.” We are continuously improving the Platform for all users and reserve the right to make changes in our discretion. Changes we make to the Platform, including discontinuing certain features, affect all users and we try to minimize disruption to users. However, these changes may affect users differently. We are not responsible if any specific changes we make to the Platform adversely affect how you use them.
(b) Host Services. Hosts may use our Platform to offer a specific location, property, site, or other area (a “Space”) and related services to a Guest to use for a specific time and purpose (an “Event”) using our Platform. The details of each Space, including its availability, booking price, additional fees, rules, and other terms are provided in a “Listing.” Please note, Home & Own does not own, lease, or control the Spaces listed, and does not make decisions surrounding whether to accept a Booking. In addition, Hosts may provide goods or services for an Event at an additional cost (“Host Add-Ons”). Hosts are solely responsible for their Spaces, Listings, and Host Services.
(c) Vendor Services. Vendors may use our Platform to offer specific products or services to supplement a Guest’s Event. For example, the supplying of catered food during an Event is a Vendor Service. Please note, Home & Own does not offer, lease, rent, provide, or control any of the Vendor Services. Vendors are solely responsible for their Vendor Services.
(d) Concierge Services. Home & Own may provide a service to help Guests coordinate the Booking of Vendor Services (not provided by the Host) for an Event. Concierge Services depend on a Guest’s unique needs and may include identifying specific Vendors (such as catering or furniture rental), scouting Spaces, or assistance in event planning.
1.2 Using Our Services
(a) Eligibility. You must be at least 18 years of age and able to enter into legally binding contracts in order to access and use the Platform, create an account, or utilize any of the Services. By using the Platform and our Services, you represent and warrant that you meet all of the foregoing eligibility requirements. If you do not meet all of these requirements, you must not access or use the Platform. You represent that you will comply with all export control laws in your local jurisdiction.
(b) Third Party Services and Content. Our Platform is made available to you in connection with the offering of third party services that Home & Own does not control. Home & Own does not endorse any such third party services and in no event shall Home & Own be liable or responsible for any third party services or third party services providers (like Hosts or Vendors).
(c) Planning an Event. Our Platform allows users to connect to third-parties to plan Events. Users control the availability, quality, and terms of their Listings, Host Services, and Vendor Services. It is your responsibility to evaluate each Guest, Host, and Vendor with whom you choose to contract, communicate, or otherwise interact. Home & Own is not responsible for the content posted by our users, nor are we responsible for the quality of Spaces, Host Services, or Vendor Services offered. We do not assume any responsibility for the confirmation of any user’s identity, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, and as permitted by applicable laws, we may, but have no obligation to, take efforts to verify the identity of users and/or screen them against public and private databases for the purposes of preventing fraudulent activity and providing a safe transacting community.
(d) Bookings. When users enter into Bookings with one another (e.g. when a Host confirms a Booking request from a Guest or when a Guest books Vendor Services for an Event), they enter into a contract directly with one another. Home & Own does not become a party to the contract between users. Home & Own is not acting as an agent for any user, except for as specified in Section 3.2 (Using Concierge Services) and Section 1.4 (Appointment of Home & Own as a Limited Collection Agent). Users are prohibited from using the Home & Own platform to facilitate contracts outside of the Platform.
(e) Communication With Home & Own. You agree that Home & Own may contact you by telephone, text messages or SMS (including by an automatic telephone dialing system), through electronic messaging on the Platform, or via email at any of the communication methods provided by you or on your behalf in connection with your Account, including for marketing purposes. You understand that you are not required to provide consent to receive marketing communications as a condition of purchasing any goods or services, and you may opt out of those marketing communications at any time. You specifically consent to receive communications related to your Account through text messages, SMS, or other communications sent to your mobile device (“Mobile Notifications”). Standard mobile rates will apply for any Mobile Notifications you receive. You may stop receiving these Mobile Notifications at any point by responding to such message with “STOP” or following the instructions included in a message. However, if you do so, you may miss critical messages related to your Account. We are not responsible for and disclaim all liability for all harm or losses caused by disabling Mobile Notifications. Please contact us us if you experience issues when attempting to stop Mobile Notifications.
(f) Communications With Other Users. The Platform allows you to communicate with other users without disclosing sensitive personal contact information. You may use the Platform only as permitted in this PSA. You may not use the Platform to send messages that are unwanted or unrelated to Booking a Listing through the Platform, harass or attempt to market other services to users, or to solicit and/or send spam. We are not responsible for, and disclaim all liability resulting from, any losses or harm to you resulting from sharing personal or sensitive information with other users, or communicating or engaging with users outside of the Platform. More information regarding appropriate communications conduct when using Home & Own is included in our Community Guidelines. Home & Own, at its sole option and without notice or any obligation to do so, may from time to time (i) remove communications among users which contain or share personal contact information, or (ii) suspend or terminate the accounts of users that share personal contact information.
(g) Compliance with the Law. You will comply with all Laws applicable to your use of the Space, Host Services, Platform Services (including use of the Platform), Vendor Services, and Concierge Services, whether as a Host, Guest, or Vendor. While we may provide information to help you understand certain obligations of using various Services, we are not authorized to provide and do not provide any legal advice. If you are unsure how to comply with Laws, you should seek legal advice related to Listing or Booking a Space. As used in this PSA, “Laws” means all applicable federal, state, local, and other governmental laws, regulations, ordinances, codes, rules, court orders, and all recorded and unrecorded private contract, restrictions, covenants and other agreements.
(h) Contractual Disputes Between Users. Home & Own may facilitate the resolution of disputes between users, but does not become a party to any contract by doing so. We are not responsible to you or any third party for providing, or for the condition or nature of, any Space, Host Services, or Vendor Services. Hosts, Guests, and Vendors are independent third-parties and are not affiliated, controlled by, or employed by Home & Own. Hosts and Vendors set their own prices, use their own facilities and resources, and may condition use of Spaces or Vendor Services as they feel is appropriate for their business. For more on Dispute Resolution, see Section 4 (Dispute Resolution).
1.3 Your Account
(a) Registration. Before using the Platform or Services, you must create an account with Home & Own (“Account”) and provide us with information about yourself or your company. If you are registering on behalf of a legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to legally bind that entity and grant all rights, permissions, and licenses contained in this PSA or any other applicable terms. Misrepresenting your affiliation or association with an entity may result in immediate termination of your Account, ineligibility to participate in any of our Services, monetary damages, and reporting to the appropriate legal authority.
(b) Account Security. You will be required to provide an email address and password to keep your Account secure (“Credentials”) and agree to keep your Credentials private and secure. You are responsible for any actions associated with your Account whether or not authorized. You are solely responsible for the actions or communications of your employees, representatives, hires, or agents (“Agents”). We are not responsible for and disclaim all liability for use of your Account by your Agents. You may not assign or transfer your Account to another party without our prior written consent.
(c) Account Updates. We may ask that you update your Account or provide additional or different information at any time. This includes requiring additional details about Spaces or payment information. You are required to update all Account information necessary to maintain compliance with this PSA, including but not limited to maintaining proper contact information and payment information.
(d) Account Termination By You. You may terminate your Account at any time by notifying us. You are responsible for all activity associated with your Account made before it is closed including: (i) payment of Fees, Taxes, Fines or other charges; (ii) providing use of Spaces to Guests as previously Booked; or (iii) other liabilities caused by or resulting from use of the Platform or Service. We may retain Content and continue to display and use any public Content (including comments or reviews of Spaces) after your Account is terminated. Termination of your Account does not terminate any contractual arrangements you have with third parties, including any obligations to government entities for tax purposes.
(e) Account Termination By Us. We may suspend your Account--including your ability to communicate with other users, receive payments, or complete Bookings--or terminate this PSA and your Account at any time and based on our sole discretion without limitation. We are likely to terminate your account if (i) we believe that use of your Account poses a risk to Home & Own, you, other users, or third parties; (ii) there is evidence of actual or potential fraud by you or on your behalf; (iii) you fail to respond to communications from us or other users; or (iv) you fail to comply with this PSA and associated policies including the Community Guidelines and Cancellation and Refund Policy or applicable Law.
(f) Survival. Upon termination of this PSA or any agreement between you and Home & Own, the clauses of this PSA that reasonably should survive termination will remain in effect.
1.4 Fees and Taxes
(a) Fees and Payments. You understand that Home & Own may initiate charges to you for the goods or services you receive. By using our Services, you authorize Home & Own to receive and/or enable your payment of applicable charges for the goods or services (including third party services like Host Services and Vendor Services) obtained through your use of the Platform and Platform Services.
You acknowledge and accept that, as between you and Home & Own, Home & Own may revise charges for any services obtained through use of the Platform at any time in Home & Own’s sole discretion. Home & Own will make reasonable efforts to inform you of the charges incurred through your use of the Platform Services, but you shall be responsible for all charges incurred under your Account regardless of your awareness of such charges. The charges you incur may be owed directly to third party service providers (like Hosts and/or Vendors), and Home & Own will collect those charges from you, on the third party’s behalf as their limited collection agent, and payment of such charges by you will be considered the same as if made directly by you to the third party service provider. Home & Own reserves the right to otherwise collect payment from you and pursue any remedies available to Home & Own in circumstances in which you are deemed liable or owing for any unpaid fees, damages, fines or other sums for which you are responsible, as decided by Home & Own in its sole discretion and in accordance with this Home & Own Services Agreement, the applicable policy set by Home & Own, and/or the terms of the Booking Agreement mentioned in the Listing.
(b) Fees Charged by Home & Own. Home & Own charges services fees to its users in exchange for use of the Platform Services or for providing Concierge Services. Hosts are charged Host Fees; Guests are charged Guest Fees, and Vendors are charged Vendor Fees (collectively “Service Fees”). Service Fees are described in more detail on our Fees Overview. All applicable Service Fees and Taxes will be displayed to the applicable user prior to completion of a Booking. Home & Own reserves the right to alter or amend its fees at any time and such changes will become effective after reasonable notice has been given.
(c) Host Charges and Additional Fees. A Booking provides a limited use of a Space or Vendor Service as described in the Listing and Booking Agreement, if applicable, for which the Host charges a fee ( the “Booking Price”). A Host may sometimes also charge a Cleaning Fee in association with the use of a Space. If the Host offers Host Add-Ons in a Booking, the Host may also charge a Host Add-On Fee. If you use a Space or Vendor Services beyond that specified in your agreement with another user you will be responsible for payment of additional Fees (“Additional Fees”) as described on the Fees Overview. Additional Fees are determined based on the factors described in the Listing. As a Guest, you are solely responsible for any damage done to the Space or the Amenities by anyone attending or working at your Event. Hosts must notify us within 72 hours days of a Guest exceeding the permitted use of the Space and specifically request payment of Additional Fees. Users agree that Home & Own may, in its sole discretion, determine whether a Host is entitled to receive Additional Fees in accordance with this Home & Own Services Agreement, the applicable policy set by Home & Own, and/or the terms of the Booking Agreement between the Guest and Host mentioned in the Listing.
(d) Prepaid Fees. Certain Bookings may require you to provide a portion of prepaid Fees or a refundable amount (“Deposit”) in advance. All Fees and Deposits, as applicable, will be identified prior to completing your Booking. If held by Home & Own, at our option, Deposits may be credited to your Booking or returned when the Space is returned in acceptable condition and free of any material damage. While we may facilitate the collection of Fees and Deposits for Hosts, once remitted to Hosts, we are not responsible for the return of Fees or Deposits to Guests, where applicable.
(e) Taxes and Fines. You are solely responsible for payment of all taxes, levies, penalties, and other costs imposed by any taxing authority or government agency related to Listing or Booking Spaces or Vendor Services including any sales or occupancy tax, indirect taxes such as valued added tax (VAT) or goods and services tax (GST), usage or permitting fees, duties, and other taxes imposed by municipalities, states, or governments through regulation, ordinance, law, or judicial or regulatory interpretation (collectively “Taxes”). Except as required by Law, Home & Own will not calculate, track or pay Taxes or submit Tax reporting on your behalf. You are responsible for all Taxes owed for Booking or Listing a Space, or providing or using Vendor Services including, without limitation, accurate calculation of Taxes due, timely remittance of Taxes to the appropriate taxing authority and maintenance of any required records and accounts. If any taxing authority demands that we pay such Taxes on your behalf, you are immediately liable to us for such Taxes and will reimburse or pay Home & Own for such Taxes upon demand. You are also responsible for any penalties arising from your failing to comply with this PSA including those issued by regulatory or taxing authorities, law enforcement, fire code or safety agencies, or other third parties; or that may be issued by us for losses we or users incur that are based on your failing to comply with this PSA or misuse of the Platform, Services, Space, or Vendor Services (collectively, “Fines”). You understand and agree that Home & Own does not provide you with any advice or guidance of any kind or nature regarding Taxes and that you have been advised to consult with your tax advisor for any required advice or guidance regarding Taxes.
(f) Payment. You will timely and fully pay any Fees, Deposits, Taxes, Fines, or other amounts you owe under this PSA. If you owe amounts and we are unable to receive payment through the Platform for any reason, then we may require that you pay through other means (such as direct debit, wire transfer, or cashiers’ check). We may set-off any amounts owed to us through collection of funds that would otherwise be payable to you through the Platform. You are responsible for any costs or expenses associated with our recovering Fees, Taxes, or Fines owed, including our attorneys’ fees or expenses. In our discretion, any late payments of more than 7 days may incur a late charge of up to ten percent (10%) and accumulate interest of ten percent (10%) per month until delinquency is resolved. We may use any legal means available to us to collect delinquent payments, including collections agencies or court filings.
(g) Payment Processing. Acceptance and payment of funds between users or Home & Own on the Platform (“Payment Processing”) is provided by Stripe. Your use of Payment Processing is subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement that includes the Stripe Services Agreement as may be modified by Stripe from time to time (collectively, the “Stripe Agreement”). As a condition using Payment Processing, you must provide accurate and complete information about you and your business and you authorize us to share this information to Stripe. All bank and credit card information is sent directly to and stored with Stripe using their security protocols. Home & Own does not store your payment information on its systems and shall not have any responsibility for the safety or security of that information. Your use of Payment Processing is conditioned upon your compliance with the Stripe Agreement, and if the Stripe Agreement is terminated by Stripe you may not be able to use the Platform, or have your Account suspended or terminated. We may change or add other payment processing services at any time upon notice to you, which may be subject to additional terms or conditions.
Appointment of Home & Own as a Limited Collection Agent. Each user (such as Hosts, Vendors, or Guests who facilitate certain transactions through our Platform) who collects payment for services provided via the Platform (“Collecting User”) hereby appoints Home & Own as the Collecting User’s payment collection agent solely for the limited purpose of accepting funds from other users purchasing such services (“Paying User”).
Each Paying User acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the fact that Home & Own is not a party to the agreement between you and the Collecting User, Home & Own acts as the Collecting User’s payment collection agent for the limited purpose of accepting payments from you on behalf of the Collecting User. Once a Paying User makes payment of funds to Home & Own, the Paying User’s payment obligation to the Collecting User for the agreed upon amount is extinguished, and Home & Own is responsible for remitting the funds to the Collecting User in the manner described in this PSA, which constitutes Home & Own’s agreement with the Collecting User. In the event that Home & Own does not remit any funds, the Collecting User will have recourse only against Home & Own and not the Paying User directly.
Each Collecting User agrees that payment made by a Paying User through Home & Own shall be considered the same as a payment made directly to the Collecting User. The Collecting User will provide the purchased services to the Paying User in the agreed-upon manner as if the Collecting User has received the payment directly from the Paying User. Each Collecting User agrees that Home & Own may refund the Paying User in accordance with this PSA (including all applicable terms referenced herein) and each Collecting User understands that Home & Own’s obligation to pay the Collecting User is subject to and conditional upon successful receipt of the associated payments from Paying User. Home & Own shall be obligated to make payments to Collecting User only for such amounts that have been actually received by Home & Own from Paying User in accordance with this PSA. In accepting appointment as the limited payment collection agent of the Collecting User, Home & Own assumes no liability for any acts or omissions of the Collecting User.
