You represent that you are entitled to disclose your Third Party Account login information to JumpStay and/or grant JumpStay access to your Third Party Account (including, but not limited to, for use for the purposes described herein), without breach by you of any of the terms and conditions that govern your use of the applicable Third Party Account and without obligating JumpStay to pay any fees or making JumpStay subject to any usage limitations imposed by such third party service providers. By granting JumpStay access to any Third Party Accounts, you understand that JumpStay will access, make available and store (if applicable) any Content that you have provided to and stored in your Third Party Account (“SNS Content”) so that it is available on and through the Site, Services and Application via your JumpStay Account and JumpStay Account profile page. Unless otherwise specified in these Terms, all SNS Content, if any, will be considered to be Member Content for all purposes of these Terms. Depending on the Third Party Accounts you choose and subject to the privacy settings that you have set in such Third Party Accounts, personally identifiable information that you post to your Third Party Accounts will be available on and through your JumpStay Account on the Site, Services and Application. Please note that if a Third Party Account or associated service becomes unavailable or JumpStay’s access to such Third Party Account is terminated by the third party service provider, then SNS Content will no longer be available on and through the Site, Services and Application. You have the ability to disable the connection between your JumpStay Account and your Third Party Accounts, at any time, by accessing the “Settings” section of the Site and Application. PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR THIRD PARTY ACCOUNTS IS GOVERNED SOLELY BY YOUR AGREEMENT(S) WITH SUCH THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS.

You are responsible for safeguarding your password. You agree that you will not disclose your password to any third party and that you will take sole responsibility for any activities or actions under your JumpStay Account, whether or not you have authorized such activities or actions. You will immediately notify JumpStay of any unauthorized use of your JumpStay Account.

Accommodation Listings

As a Member, you may create Listings. To this end, you will be asked a variety of questions about the Accommodation to be listed, including, but not limited to, the location, capacity, size, features, availability of the Accommodation and pricing and related rules and financial terms. In order to be featured in Listings via the Site, Application and Services, all Accommodations must have valid physical addresses. Listings will be made publicly available via the Site, Application and Services. Other Members will be able to book your Accommodation via the Site, Application and Services based upon the information provided in your Listing. You understand and agree that once a Guest requests a booking of your Accommodation, the price for such booking may not be altered.

You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for any and all Listings you post. Accordingly, you represent and warrant that any Listing you post and the booking of, or Guest stay at, an Accommodation in a Listing you post (i) will not breach any agreements you have entered into with any third parties and (ii) will (a) be in compliance with all applicable laws, Tax requirements, and rules and regulations that may apply to any Accommodation included in a Listing you post, including, but not limited to, zoning laws and laws governing rentals of residential and other properties and (b) not conflict with the rights of third parties. Please note that JumpStay assumes no responsibility for a Host’s compliance with any applicable laws, rules and regulations. 
You understand and agree that JumpStay does not act as an insurer or as a contracting agent for, or representative of, you as a Host, and if a Guest requests a booking of your Accommodation and stays at your Accommodation, any agreement you enter into with such Guest is between you and the Guest and JumpStay is not a party thereto. Please note that JumpStay reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, to remove or disable access to any Listing for any reason, including Listings that JumpStay, in its sole discretion, considers to be objectionable for any reason, in violation of these Terms or otherwise harmful to the Site, Application or Services. 
When you create a Listing, you may also choose to include certain requirements which must be met by the Members who are eligible to request a booking of your Accommodation, including, but not limited to, requiring Members to have a profile picture or verified phone number, in order to book your Accommodation. Any Member wishing to book Accommodations included in Listings with such requirements must meet these requirements. More information on how to set such requirements is available via the “Hosting” section of the Site, Application and Services.

If you are a Host, JumpStay makes certain tools available to you to help you to make informed decisions about which Members you choose to confirm for booking for your Accommodation. You acknowledge and agree that, 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 Guest (and the individuals the Guest invites to the Accommodation, if applicable.) 


JumpStay recommends that Hosts obtain appropriate insurance for their Accommodations. Please review any insurance policy that you may have for your Accommodation carefully, and in particular please 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 Guests (and the individuals the Guest invites to the Accommodation, if applicable) while at your Accommodation.

No Endorsement

JumpStay does not endorse any Members or any Accommodations. In addition, although these Terms require Members to provide accurate information, we do not attempt to confirm, and do not confirm, any Member’s purported identity. You are responsible for determining the identity and suitability of others who you contact via the Site, Application and Services. JumpStay will not be responsible for any damage or harm resulting from your interactions with other Members. By using the Site, Application or Services, you agree that any legal remedy or liability that you seek to obtain for actions or omissions of other Members or other third parties will be limited to a claim against the particular Members or other third parties who caused you harm and you agree not to attempt to impose liability on, or seek any legal remedy from JumpStay with respect to such actions or omissions. 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

Bookings and Financial Terms for Hosts

If you are a Host and a booking is requested for your Accommodation via the Site, Application and Services, you will be required to either confirm or reject the booking within 24 hours of when the booking is requested (as determined by JumpStay in its sole discretion) or the booking request will be automatically canceled. When a booking is requested via the Site, Application and Services, we will share with you (i) the first and last name of the Guest who has requested the booking, (ii) a link to the Guest’s JumpStay Account profile page, (iii) the names of any members of an SNS with whom you are “friends” or associated on the SNS if such individuals are also “friends” or associated with the Guest on such SNS, and (iv) an indication that the name that the Guest provided to JumpStay when the Guest became a Member matches the name that the Guest provided to the SNSs to which the Guest has linked his or her JumpStay Account, so that you can view such information before confirming or rejecting the booking. If you are unable to confirm or decide to reject a booking of an Accommodation within such 24 hour period, any amounts collected by JumpStay for the requested booking will be refunded to the applicable Guest’s credit card and any pre-authorization of such credit card will be released. When you confirm a booking requested by a Guest, JumpStay will send you an email, text message or message via the Application confirming such booking, depending on the selections you make via the Site, Application and Services.

The fees displayed in each Listing are comprised of the Accommodation Fees (defined below) and the Guest Fees (defined below.) Where applicable, Taxes may be charged in addition to the Accommodation Fees and Guest Fees. The Accommodation Fees, the Guest Fees and applicable Taxes are collectively referred to in these Terms as the “Total Fees”. The amounts due and payable by a Guest solely relating to a Host’s Accommodation are the “Accommodation Fees”. Please note that it is the Host and not JumpStay which determines the Accommodation Fees. The Accommodation Fee may include a cleaning fee, at the Host’s discretion. JumpStay charges a fee to Guests based upon a percentage of applicable Accommodation Fees which are the “Guest Fees”. The Guest Fees are added to the Accommodation Fees to calculate the Total Fees (which will also include applicable Taxes) displayed in the applicable Listing. JumpStay will collect the Total Fees at the time of booking confirmation (i.e. when the Host confirms the booking within 24 hours of the booking request) and will remit the Accommodation Fees (less JumpStay’s Host Fees (defined below)) to the Host within 24 hours of when the Guest arrives at the applicable Accommodation.

Please note that JumpStay does not currently charge fees for the creation of Listings. However, you acknowledge and agree that JumpStay reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to charge you for and collect fees from you for the creation of Listings. Please note that JumpStay will provide notice of any Listing fee collection via the Site, Application and Services, prior to implementing such a Listing fee feature.

Bookings and Financial Terms for Guests

The Hosts, not JumpStay, are solely responsible for honoring any confirmed bookings and making available any Accommodations reserved through the Site, Application and Services. If you, as a Guest, choose to enter into a transaction with a Host for the booking of an Accommodation, you agree and understand that you will be required to enter into an agreement with the Host and you agree to accept any terms, conditions, rules and restrictions associated with such Accommodation imposed by the Host. You acknowledge and agree that you, and not JumpStay, will be responsible for performing the obligations of any such agreements, and JumpStay is not a party to such agreements and disclaims all liability arising from or related to any such agreements.

Listings for Accommodations will specify the Total Fees. As noted above, the Host is required to either confirm or reject the booking within 24 hours of when the booking is requested (as determined by JumpStay 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 Host), any amounts collected by JumpStay will be refunded to such Guest, depending on the selections the Guest makes via the Site and Application, and any pre-authorization of such Guest’s credit card will be released, if applicable.

You agree to pay JumpStay for the Total Fees for any booking requested in connection with your JumpStay Account if such requested bookings are confirmed by the applicable Host. In order to establish a booking pending the applicable Host’s confirmation of your requested booking, you understand and agree that JumpStay reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to (i) obtain a pre-authorization via your credit card for the Total Fees or (ii) charge your credit card a nominal amount, not to exceed one dollar ($1), or a similar sum in the currency in which you are transacting ( e.g. one euro or one British pound) to verify your credit card. Once JumpStay receives confirmation of your booking from the applicable Host, JumpStay 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 JumpStay cannot control any fees that may be charged to a Guest by his or her bank related to JumpStay’s collection of the Total Fees, and JumpStay disclaims all liability in this regard.

In connection with your requested booking, you will be asked to provide customary billing information such as name, billing address and credit card information either to JumpStay or its third party payment processor. You agree to pay JumpStay for any confirmed bookings made in connection with your JumpStay Account in accordance with these Terms by one of the methods described on the Site or Application – e.g. by PayPal or credit card. You hereby authorize the collection of such amounts by charging the credit card provided as part of requesting the booking, either directly by JumpStay or indirectly, via a third party online payment processor or by one of the payment methods described on the Site or Application. You also authorize JumpStay to charge your credit card in the event of damage caused at an Accommodation as contemplated under “Damage to Accommodations” below and for Security Deposits, if applicable. If you are directed to JumpStay’s third party payment processor, you may be subject to terms and conditions governing use of that third party’s service and that third party’s personal information collection practices. 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

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

Service Fees

In consideration for providing the Services, JumpStay collects service fees from Hosts and Guests (“Service Fees”). Service Fees are made up of two (2) components: (i) Guest Fees and (ii) a fee that is charged to the Host based upon a percentage of the amount of the Accommodation Fees (“Host Fees”). Where applicable, Taxes may also be charged in addition to the Host Fees. Host Fees are deducted from the Accommodation Fees before remitting the Accommodation Fees to the Host, within 24 hours of when the Guest arrives at the applicable Accommodation. Guest Fees are, as noted above, included in the Total Fees.

Balances will be remitted to Hosts via check, PayPal, direct deposit or other payment methods described on the Site or via the Application, in the Host’s currency of choice, depending upon the selections available on the site, and selections the Host makes via the Site, Application and Services. Please note that for any payments by JumpStay in currencies other than U.S. dollars, JumpStay may deduct foreign currency processing costs from such payments. More information on foreign currency processing cost deductions will be available via the Site and Application. Except as otherwise provided herein, Service Fees are non-refundable.

 

General Booking and Financial Terms

Cancellations and Refunds

If, as a Guest, you cancel your requested booking before the requested booking is confirmed by a Host, JumpStay will refund any Accommodation Fees and any Guest Fees collected for such requested booking within a commercially reasonable time. If, as a Guest, you wish to cancel a confirmed booking made via the Site, Application and Services, the cancellation policy of the Host contained in the applicable Listing will apply to such cancellation. 
If a Host cancels a confirmed booking made via the Site, Services, and Application, (i) JumpStay will refund the Total Fees for such booking to the applicable Guest within a commercially reasonable time of the cancellation and (ii) the Guest will receive an email or other communication from JumpStay containing other related information. If the Guest requests a booking from one of the alternative Listings and the Host associated with such alternative Listing confirms the Guest’s requested booking, then the Guest agrees to pay JumpStay the Total Fees relating to the confirmed booking for the Accommodation in the alternative Listing, in accordance with these Terms. If a Host canceled a confirmed booking and you, as a Guest, have not received an email or other communication from JumpStay, please contact JumpStay at
http://www.JumpStay.com/contact/.

 

Recurring Payments

In some instances, Guests 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 Accommodation (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 JumpStay 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 Hosts 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. JumpStay is not affiliated or associated with such charities or organizations and we do not sponsor or support their activities. We do not control, and will not take any responsibility or liability for, whether the Host does in fact make the donation he or she pledged to make.

Taxes

In accord with prevailing current United States IRS regulations regarding federal tax reporting requirements, JumpStay may 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. JumpStay cannot and does not offer Tax-related advice to any Members of the Site, Application and Services. Additionally, please note that each Host 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 Host, JumpStay may issue a valid VAT invoice to such Host. 


Foreign Currency

As part of the Services, JumpStay may provide 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 Guest) 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 Host. The currency in which you will be charged will be determined by JumpStay based on the payment method you select and the location of the Accommodation in the Listing you are booking. If the currency in which you will be charged is different from the currency chosen by the Host to receive payment, JumpStay 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 JumpStay 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 JumpStay 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, JumpStay 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 JumpStay makes payment to a Host.


 

Damage to Accommodations

As a Guest, you are responsible for leaving the Accommodation in the condition it was in when you arrived. You acknowledge and agree that, as a Guest, 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 Accommodation. In the event that a Host claims otherwise and provides evidence of damage, including but not limited to, photographs, you agree to pay the cost of repairing the Accommodations and 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 JumpStay Account. JumpStay also reserves the right to charge the credit card on file in your JumpStay Account, or otherwise collect payment from you and pursue any avenues available to JumpStay in this regard, including using Security Deposits and legal action, in situations in which you have been determined, in JumpStay’s sole discretion, to have damaged any Accommodation that you have rented through the JumpStay system. 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 Accommodation to the applicable Host or to JumpStay (if applicable).

Both Guests and Hosts agree to cooperate with and assist JumpStay in good faith, and to provide JumpStay with such information and take such actions as may be reasonably requested by JumpStay, in connection with any complaints or claims made by Members relating to Accommodations or any personal or other property located at an Accommodation or with respect to any investigation undertaken by JumpStay or a representative of JumpStay regarding use or abuse of the Site, Application or the Services. If you are a Guest, upon JumpStay’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 Host, at no cost to you, which process will be conducted by JumpStay or a third party selected by JumpStay, with respect to losses for which the Host is requesting payment from JumpStay.

If you are a Guest, you understand and agree that JumpStay 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 an Accommodation or any personal or other property located at an Accommodation. You agree to cooperate with and assist JumpStay in good faith, and to provide JumpStay with such information as may be reasonably requested by JumpStay in order to make a claim under your homeowner’s, renter’s or other insurance policy, including, but not limited to, executing documents and taking such further acts as JumpStay may reasonably request to assist JumpStay in accomplishing the foregoing.

JumpStay Affiliate and Referral Programs

As a Member, by referring your friends to request a booking or create a Listing that receives a confirmed booking via the Site, Application and Services, you may participate in the “Referral Program”, which is a loyalty program we offer to our Members. If you choose to participate in the Referral Program, for each friend you refer to JumpStay for which a Qualifying Referral (defined below) is completed, you may be able to receive JumpStay Travel Credits (defined below) (each a “Referral Reward”). “JumpStay Travel Credits” are “points” that may be applied as credits toward future confirmed bookings made by Members via the Site, Application and Services.

In order to receive a Referral Reward, each of the following requirements must be met (collectively, a “Qualifying Referral”): (i) you must log in to your JumpStay Account on the Site or Application and select either the “Invite Friends with Facebook” or “Email Your Friends” link; (ii) you must share the link provided with friends via Facebook or Twitter, by copying and pasting the unique referral link generated via the Services, by sending the unique referral link generated via the Services in an email via the Services to your friends; or by using the other tools provided by JumpStay to share the unique referral link with friends; (iii) a friend who clicks the link on Facebook or otherwise or clicks the link contained in the email must create a JumpStay Account and become a Member; and (iv) after becoming a Member, the friend must either request a booking of an Accommodation which is confirmed by the applicable Host or create a Listing which subsequently receives a confirmed booking via the Services with Total Fees of at least seventy-five dollars ($75) that is not subsequently cancelled. Please note that you may not be the Host or the Guest for the booking to receive a Referral Reward.

Satisfaction of a Qualifying Referral and the Referral Reward you receive will be reflected in your JumpStay Account in a commercially reasonable amount of time after the Qualifying Referral has been completed. The Referral Rewards you accrue will be displayed in your JumpStay Account profile page. Referral Rewards can be accrued solely by you and you may not earn Referral Rewards by permitting another individual to use your JumpStay Account.

By acquiring Referral Rewards, you agree and acknowledge that JumpStay is granting you a limited, revocable license to a digital item, and that Referral Rewards are not your personal property.

General

The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of JumpStay. 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.
