Accordingly, we encourage you to communicate directly with other Members on the Site and Services regarding any bookings or Listings made by you.

Bookings and Financial Terms for Renters

The Space Owners, not SharemySpace®, are solely responsible for honoring any confirmed bookings and making available any Spaces reserved through the Site, Application and Services. If you, as a Renter, choose to enter into a transaction with a Owner for the booking of an Space, you agree and understand that you will be required to enter into an agreement with the Owner and you agree to accept any terms, conditions, rules and restrictions associated with such Space imposed by the Owner.

You acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding the fact that SharemySpace® is not a party to the agreement between you and the Owner, SharemySpace® acts as the Owner’s payment agent for the limited purpose of accepting payments from you on behalf of the Owner. Upon your payment of amounts to SharemySpace® which are due to the Owner, your payment obligation to the Owner for such amounts is extinguished, and SharemySpace® is responsible for remitting such amounts, less the Booking Fee and the Processing Fee to the Owner. In the event that SharemySpace® does not remit any such amounts to a Owner, such Owner will have recourse only against SharemySpace®.

Listings for Spaces will specify the Total Fees. As noted above, the Owner is required to either confirm or reject the booking within 24 hours of when the booking is requested (as determined by SharemySpace® in its sole discretion) or the requested booking will be automatically cancelled. If a requested booking is cancelled (i.e. not confirmed by the applicable Owner), any amounts collected by SharemySpace® will be refunded to such Renter, depending on the selections the Renter makes via the Site and Application, and any pre-authorization of such Renter’s credit card will be released, if applicable.

Once SharemySpace® receives confirmation of your booking from the applicable Owner, SharemySpace® will collect the Total Fees in accordance with the terms and conditions of these Terms and the pricing terms set forth in the applicable Listing. Please note that SharemySpace® cannot control any fees that may be charged to a Renter by his or her bank related to SharemySpace®’s collection of the Space Fees, and SharemySpace® disclaims all liability in this regard.

Please review such terms and conditions and privacy policy before using the services. Once your confirmed booking transaction is complete you will receive a confirmation email summarizing your confirmed booking.

Security Deposits

Space Owners may choose to include security deposits in their Listings (“Security Deposits”). Each Listing will describe whether a Security Deposit is required for the applicable Space. If a Security Deposit is included in a Listing for a confirmed booking of Space, SharemySpace® will, in its capacity as the payment agent of the Owner, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a pre-authorization of the Renter’s credit card in the amount the Owner determines for the Security Deposit within a reasonable time prior to the Renter’s check-in at the applicable Owner’s Space. SharemySpace® will also use its commercially reasonable efforts to address Space Owners’ requests and claims related to Security Deposits, but SharemySpace® is not responsible for administering or accepting any claims by Space Owners related to Security Deposits, and disclaims any and all liability in this regard.

Service Fees

In consideration for providing the Services, SharemySpace® collects service fees from Space Owners (“Booking Fees”). A Booking Fee is a fee that is charged to the Owner based upon a percentage (Currently 4.5%) of the amount of the Space Fees (“Owner Fees”). Booking Fees are deducted from the Space Fees before remitting the Space Fees to the Owner, within seven (7) business days of payment being collected by SharemySpace®

Balances will be remitted by SharemySpace® to Space Owners via check, PayPal, direct deposit or other payment methods described on the Site or via the Application, in the Owner’s currency of choice, depending upon the selections the Owner makes via the Site, Application and Services.

If, as a Renter, you cancel your requested booking before the requested booking is confirmed by a Owner, SharemySpace® will cancel any pre-authorization to your credit card and/or refund any nominal amounts charged to your credit card in connection with the requested booking within a commercially reasonable time. If, as a Renter, you wish to cancel a confirmed booking made via the Site, Application and Services, either prior to or after arriving at the Space, the cancellation policy of the Owner contained in the applicable Listing will apply to such cancellation. Our ability to refund the SpaceFees and other amounts charged to you will depend upon the terms of the applicable cancellation policy. Details regarding refunds and cancellation policies are available via the Site and Application.

Recurring Payments

In some instances, Renters may be required to make recurring, incremental payments toward the Total Fees owed for a confirmed booking before beginning his or her stay at the applicable Space(collectively, “Recurring Payments”). More information on Recurring Payments will be made available via the Site, Application and Services, if applicable. If Recurring Payments apply to your payment obligations for Total Fees owed for a confirmed booking, you authorize SharemySpace®, on behalf of the Owner, to collect the Total Fees in the increments and at the frequency associated with the applicable Recurring Payments, identified on the Site, Application and Services.

Donations

Some Space Owners may pledge to donate a portion of the funds they receive from confirmed bookings made via the Site, Application and Services to a particular cause or charity. We do not control, and will not take any responsibility or liability for, whether the Owner does in fact make the donation he or she pledged to make.

Taxes

IRS regulation, regarding federal tax reporting requirements, stipulates that SharemySpace® must collect IRS Form W-9 from all property owners in the United States. You understand and agree that you are solely responsible for determining your applicable Tax reporting requirements in consultation with your tax advisors. SharemySpace® cannot and does not offer Tax-related advice to any Members of the Site, Application and Services. Additionally, please note that each Owner is responsible for determining local indirect Taxes and for including any applicable Taxes to be collected or obligations relating to applicable Taxes in Listings. Where applicable, or based upon request from a Owner, SharemySpace® may issue a valid VAT invoice to such Owner.

Foreign Currency

As part of the Services, SharemySpace® provides a feature through which Members may view Total Fees for various Listings in foreign currencies. You understand and agree that these views of Total Fees are for informational purposes only and are not the official Total Fees for the Listings. If you (as a Renter) request a booking, you will be notified of the currency in which you will be charged together with the corresponding amount of Total Fees, if your booking is confirmed by a Owner. The currency in which you will be charged will be determined by SharemySpace® based on the payment method you select and the location of the Spacein the Listing you are booking. If the currency in which you will be charged is different from the currency chosen by the Owner to receive payment, SharemySpace® will be responsible for the required currency conversion processing, including the costs thereof, which will be calculated based on the most current applicable foreign exchange rate that SharemySpace® has uploaded to the Site as of the date and time that your booking is confirmed (the “Applicable Exchange Rate”). You acknowledge that the Applicable Exchange Rate used for currency conversion processing may not be identical to the applicable market rate in effect at the specific time such processing occurs because: (i) although SharemySpace® updates the Applicable Exchange Rate on a regular basis, it does not update such rate on a real-time basis; and (ii) the Applicable Exchange Rate may include an incremental cost or margin that is not included in the applicable market rate. For the avoidance of doubt, SharemySpace® will retain any profits (and will bear any losses) that result from such currency conversion processing due to changes in the applicable foreign exchange rate between the date your booking is confirmed and the date SharemySpace® makes payment to a Owner.

Damage to Spaces

As a Renter, you are responsible for leaving the Space in the condition it was in when you arrived. You acknowledge and agree that, as a Renter, you are responsible for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of any individuals who you invite to, or otherwise provide access to, the Space. In the event that a Owner claims otherwise and provides evidence of damage, including but not limited to, photographs, you agree to pay the cost of replacing the damaged items with equivalent items. After being notified of the claim and given forty eight (48) hours to respond, the payment will be charged to and taken from the credit card on file in your SharemySpace® Account. SharemySpace® also reserves the right to charge the credit card on file in your SharemySpace® Account, or otherwise collect payment from you and pursue any avenues available to SharemySpace® in this regard, including using Security Deposits, in situations in which you have been determined, in SharemySpace®’s sole discretion, to have damaged any Space, including, but not limited to, in relation to any payment requests made by Space Owners under the SharemySpace® Owner Guarantee, and in relation to any payments made by SharemySpace® to Space Owners. If we are unable to charge the credit card on file or otherwise collect payment from you, you agree to remit payment for any damage to the Spaceto the applicable Owner or to SharemySpace® (if applicable).

Both Renters and Space Owners agree to cooperate with and assist SharemySpace® in good faith, and to provide SharemySpace® with such information and take such actions as may be reasonably requested by SharemySpace®, in connection with any complaints or claims made by Members relating to Spaces or any personal or other property located at a Space(including, without limitation, payment requests made under the SharemySpace® Owner Guarantee) or with respect to any investigation undertaken by SharemySpace® or a representative of SharemySpace® regarding use or abuse of the Site, Application or the Services. If you are a Renter, upon SharemySpace®’s reasonable request, and to the extent you are reasonably able to do so, you agree to participate in mediation or similar resolution process with a Owner, at no cost to you, which process will be conducted by SharemySpace® or a third party selected by SharemySpace®, with respect to losses for which the Owner is requesting payment from SharemySpace® under the SharemySpace® Owner Guarantee.

If you are a Renter, you understand and agree that SharemySpace® reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to make a claim under your homeowner’s, renter’s or other insurance policy related to any damage or loss that you may have caused or been responsible for to a Spaceor any personal or other property located at a Space(including amounts paid by SharemySpace® under the SharemySpace® Owner Guarantee.)

Controlling Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and the United States of America, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions. You and we agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of a state court located in Delaware or a United States District Court located in Delaware for any actions for which the parties retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights, as set forth in the Dispute Resolution provision below.

Dispute Resolution

You and SharemySpace® agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, or to the use of the Services or use of the Site or Application (collectively, “Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights. You acknowledge and agree that you and SharemySpace® are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless both you and SharemySpace® otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this “Dispute Resolution” section will be deemed void. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this “Dispute Resolution” section will survive any termination of these Terms.

Arbitration Rules and Governing Law. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this “Dispute Resolution” section. (The AAA Rules are available at http://www.adr.org/arb_medor by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section.

Arbitration Process. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. (The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at http://www.adr.org/aaa/ShowPDF?doc=ADRSTG_004175 and a separate form for Delaware residents at http://adr.org/aaa/ShowPDF?doc=ADRSTG_004314.) The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of Delaware and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.

Arbitration Location and Procedure. Unless you and SharemySpace® otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and SharemySpace® submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.

Arbitrator’s Decision. The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. 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 having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator’s award damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” section above as to the types and the amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses, to the extent provided under applicable law. SharemySpace® will not seek, and hereby waives all rights it may have under applicable law to recover, attorneys’ fees and expenses if it prevails in arbitration.
Fees. Your responsibility to pay any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the AAA Rules. However, if your claim for damages does not exceed $75,000, SharemySpace® will pay all such fees unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).

Changes. Notwithstanding the provisions of the “Modification” section above, if SharemySpace® changes this “Dispute Resolution” section after the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice (at http://www.SharemySpace®.com/contact) within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Last Updated Date” above or in the date of SharemySpace®’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 SharemySpace® in accordance with the provisions of this “Dispute Resolution” section as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).

General

The failure of SharemySpace® to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of SharemySpace®. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise. If for any reason an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
