5.2.4. Order of Listing Display

5.3. Taxes

You agree to be bound by and comply with the following terms and conditions regarding Your Tax obligations upon accepting these General Terms and Conditions.

5.3.1. Property Supplier’s Tax Obligations

As a Property Supplier, You are solely responsible for determining Your obligations to report, collect, remit or include in Your Listing Fees any applicable Taxes, as defined below. You understand that any appropriate governmental agency, department and/or authority where Your Property is located may require Taxes to be collected from Tenants or Property Suppliers from the Rates, 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 Rate set by Property Suppliers.

5.3.2. Tax Jurisdictions

Livly may decide in its sole discretion to facilitate collection and remittance of Occupancy Taxes from or on behalf of Tenants or Property Suppliers, in accordance these General Terms and Conditions (“Collection and Remittance”) if such jurisdiction asserts Livly or Property Suppliers have an Occupancy Tax collection and remittance obligation. In any jurisdiction in which Livly decides to facilitate direct Collection and Remittance, You hereby instruct and authorize Livly to collect Occupancy Taxes from Tenants on the Property Supplier’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, that Livly collects and remits will be visible to and separately stated to both Tenants and Property Supplier on their respective transaction documents prepared by Livly . Where Livly is facilitating Collection and Remittance, Property Suppliers are not permitted to collect any Occupancy Taxes being collected by Us relating to their Property in that jurisdiction.

5.4 Insurance

For so long as You are a Property Supplier, You agree to maintain general commercial liability insurance for each Property for which Livly provides Services or creates Listings under these General Terms and Conditions, in the amount of at least One Hundred Thousand Dollars (150,000.00) per incident and Three Hundred Thousand ($300,000.00) in the aggregate.  You agree that You will provide Livly with a copy of Your insurance certificate within ten days of Livly providing You with written notice requesting the same.  You understand and agree that Your insurance policy maintained under this Section shall be the first policy Livly shall look to in the event of any claim or damage arising from or relating to these General Terms and Conditions.  Additionally, You waive, release, give up and surrender any right of subrogation against Livly , its Affiliates, and Livly ’s officers, directors, employees, and agents as a condition of entering these General Terms and Conditions.

5.5 Application Process & Credit Reports

We allow tenants to request a credit report and/or a background check report and remit them to Property Suppliers using the Service. When a Tenant makes such a request, we will give the prospective Property Supplier the option to view a single-use copy of his or her credit report and/or background check report and to share it with the requesting Property Supplier. To provide this portion of the Service, we may ask for your Social Security Number and other personally identifying information (such as information about other creditors you have had), which we will share with our third-party credit reporting agency for the purposes of preparing and sharing reports and verifying your identity, and which we will not store (except than on a temporary basis) or use for any other purpose.

Tenants may opt into having their history of Livly processed rental payments furnished to third-party consumer credit-reporting agencies. To provide this service, we may securely transmit relevant tenant personal information to such agencies, including the tenant’s name, date of birth, address, payment amounts, and payment dates. Successful rent payments made by tenants while this feature is enabled may appear on credit reports provided by such agencies (including reports provided outside of the Service) and may be considered by such agencies in calculating credit scores. This feature may be disabled by tenants at any time. While this feature is enabled, months for which no payment has been made via Livly will be reported to agencies as “no activity” (which is not an indication of failure to pay rent or of late payment). If a tenant disables this feature during the term of a current lease, the entire payment history associated with that lease may be deleted from reports about that tenant. Tenants may also have their entire Livly rental payment history deleted from agencies’ reports upon request, though such removal will require processing by the agencies and may not take effect immediately. If you are a tenant and would like your payment history removed from credit reports about you, please contact us at support@livly.app Please note that, apart from giving tenants the ability to have their entire Livly rent payment history removed from agency credit reports, Livly does not control how or for how long payment history data covering periods during which this feature was enabled will appear on such credit reports.

If you are a Property Supplier requesting a credit report or a background check report from a prospective tenant, you certify that you are making such request, and will use such report, for the purpose of your own evaluation of the prospective tenant in connection with that tenant’s rental application and for no other purpose. If you are a tenant ordering a credit report or background check report, you certify that you are ordering such report, and will use such report, for the purpose of furnishing the report to a prospective Property Supplier in connection with your rental application and for no other purpose. You agree not to share any credit report or background check report obtained through Livly with anyone other than as allowed using the sharing mechanism on the Livly site.

A Credit-report and background check-report functionality is provided by our third-party credit reporting agencies and may not be available for all users or at all times for various reasons, including reasons beyond our control or about which we may not have specific information. If you are unable to order, share, request, or view a credit report or background check report using the Service, you should contact the person requesting or being asked to provide the report via the contact information he or she has listed on Livly to discuss the matter directly. You may also contact Livly at support@Livly .com for assistance.

We are not a credit bureau and do not control the contents of credit reports, (except to the limited extent described above with respect to opt-in rental payment reporting), including reports obtained through the Service. We are not responsible for the contents of any credit report or background check report or any credit score, whether correct or incorrect. Credit reports and background check reports can contain information that is incorrect, incomplete, or not up to date, and reports are not a substitute for carefully reviewing and independently verifying all information contained in a rental application and interviewing a prospective tenant. If you believe that any information contained in your credit report or background check report is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to dispute it. To dispute the contents of your credit report, please contact us via email at support@Livly .com or the telephone number displayed when your report is made available for viewing on Livly . To dispute the contents of your background check report, please contact RentPrep via email or telephone as described on your background check report.

Property Suppliers has the option to select automatic approvals presets to instantly approve tenants when creating their listings (“Inst-A-Rent”). The Property Supplier accepts the full risk of instant rentals. If you are a Property Supplier or Agent accepting credit reports or background check reports, you specifically agree to familiarize yourself and comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and any applicable state laws governing the use of consumer reports. To the extent you rely in any way on the contents of a report in taking an adverse action against an applicant (such as denying an application or requiring a co-signer or higher deposit), you are required to furnish the applicant with an adverse action notice as described in this document even if the contents of the report played only a small role in your decision. Note that for purposes of credit reports, Livly is the applicable consumer reporting agency (CRA); for purposes of background check reports, Transunion Smart Move is the applicable CRA.

We use third-party identity verification services to help ensure that users are who they say they are prior to enabling certain features of the Services, such as electronic payments and the ordering and requesting of credit reports. Once your identity has been verified, we may also display a badge or other indicator to let other users know that you’ve successfully completed the verification process. However, we neither control nor guarantee the accuracy of any identity verification service (and none can prevent all scams), so you should always take the same precautions in dealing with others through our site that you would in person.

We are not a real estate agent or broker. We don’t screen properties or listings or offer any guaranty or advice regarding the suitability of properties, Property Suppliers, or potential tenants. Nothing we say should be construed as such advice, and you agree not to rely on us in making decisions on, well, anything at all.

The tenant selection and confirmation features are designed to make communication between Property Suppliers and prospective tenants easier; neither they nor any other aspect of the Services are intended to create any kind of contract or other legal obligation between a Property Supplier and a prospective tenant (or between anyone else, for that matter). Just like in the offline world, you should wait until a written rental or lease agreement is signed by both the Property Supplier and tenant before relying on any tenancy you arrange using Livly .

5.6 Indemnification

You, as a Property Supplier, understand and agree, at Your sole and exclusive expense, to indemnify and defend Livly, its Affiliates, and its officers, directors, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Livly Indemnitees”) against any claim or action arising from or related to these General Terms and Conditions, which shall include and not be limited to any and all losses, expenses, costs (including court costs), reasonable attorney’s fees, and damages, including special, general, indirect, consequential, exemplary, punitive, or any other measure of damages, whether arising in contract or tort.  You further agree to pay the Livly Indemnitees’ court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees under this section on a monthly basis as they are incurred by any of the Livly Indemnitees.  Any of the Livly Indemnitees may participate in the defense or settlement of any claim, demand, litigation, administrative proceeding, or other dispute for which You indemnify the Livly Indemnitees under this Section.  You also agree not to consent to the entry of any settlement, resolution, or judgment without the prior written consent of the affected Livly Indemnitees, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

5.7 Limitation of Livly ’s Liability

You, as a Property Supplier, shall irrevocably release and hold harmless Livly , its officers, directors, employees, agents, and its Affiliates, from all claims arising from these General Terms and Conditions and any Rent obtained through Livly , the Website, or the Livly Channels, whether those claims are brought by any Tenant or any third party. You expressly agree to release Livly , its officers, directors, employees, agents, and its Affiliates for claims of any kind, including those arising in tort or contract, or under other law (e.g., the Fair Housing Act and other federal law, whether or not relating to housing or Property), and release Livly , its officers, directors, employees, agents, and its Affiliates from any claim for damages of any kind, whether arising from contract or tort, in law or equity (and including any and all claims for injunctive or declaratory relief), including special, general, indirect, consequential, exemplary, punitive, or any other measure of damages, and further release Livly from any claim for attorneys’ fees and costs in any claim or dispute. You further shall hold Livly , its officers, directors, employees, agents, and its Affiliates harmless for any claims a Tenant or third party brings against You in connection with these General Terms and Conditions or the Property specified in these General Terms and Conditions.

Article 6. General

6.1. Prices

The price of the Services will be as quoted on the Website from time to time, except in cases of obvious error. Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect Rent already accepted except as stated in Section 3.5.4 and its subparts above. Livly may in some cases assess a Rentals fee in relation to some transactions made by the Tenant or on the Tenant’s behalf. The Tenant will be notified of all applicable charges at the time of Rentals. Despite Livly ’s best efforts, some of the Services listed on the Website may be incorrectly priced. LIVLY EXPRESSLY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO CORRECT ANY PRICING ERRORS ON OUR WEBSITE AND/OR ON RENT MADE UNDER AN INCORRECT PRICE. IN SUCH EVENT, IF AVAILABLE, WE WILL OFFER YOU THE OPPORTUNITY TO KEEP YOUR RENTALS AT THE CORRECT PRICE OR WE WILL CANCEL YOUR RENTALS WITHOUT PENALTY. Livly is under no obligation to provide Services to a Tenant at an incorrect (lower) price, even after Tenant have been sent confirmation of their Rentals.

6.2. How Our Sort Order is Determined

Travelers have many options to help them find the ideal lodging for Rentals. The “sort” settings allow travelers to order search results to their preference, whether based on price, verified review score, or other criteria. The “filter” settings also allow travelers to include or exclude various options to suit their travel needs. If no options are selected, we will show a range of relevant options in the search results.

Our default sort order reflects the relevance of properties to Your search criteria, as we want to make sure You are able to quickly and easily find the offer that is right for You. We measure relevance by taking into account factors like a property’s location, its review scores, the popularity of the property (measured by how many travelers on our sites make Rent at that property), the quality of the content provided by the property, and the competitiveness of the property’s rates and availability, all relative to other properties meeting Your chosen search criteria. The compensation which a property pays us for Rent made through our sites is also a factor for the relative ranking of properties with similar offers, based on the relevance factors described above. On our non-default sorts (e.g., by price or by star rating), properties with similar results will be ordered based on the factors above.

6.3. Photographs and Illustrations

Livly may provide photographs and illustrations that give the Tenant a depiction of the Services offered. The purpose of these photographs and illustrations is to show the Tenant the level of accommodation and the degree of comfort, and they must not be considered to be making any representation that exceeds this purpose.

6.4. Insurance

The prices on the Website do not include renters insurance. The Tenant is therefore advised to consider renters insurance that may be required by the Property Supplier. It is the Tenant’s responsibility to ensure any insurance policy taken out is adequate to cover their requirements.  The risks covered by these policies, as well as the cost and the amount of coverage, are disclosed by any insurer the Tenant engages to purchase such an insurance policy. If a policy is bought, the insurer will send the policy to the Tenant. Claims must be submitted directly to the insurance company by the terms and conditions of the policy.

6.5. Non-Disparagement

You agree that, unless compelled by legal process, you will refrain from making any disparaging statements or representations, whether directly or indirectly, verbally or in writing, through social media or any other means online or by email or direct messaging of any kind about Livly, our Affiliates or Officers. Within the context of this section, a disparaging statement or representation refers to any communication that, if made public, could lead the recipient of the communication to doubt the business condition, integrity, competence, or good character of the individual or entity to whom the communication pertains.

Article 7. Financial conditions and payment procedures

7.1 Local Taxes and Payments

Unless specified otherwise in the Rules and Restrictions, the prices of the Services shown on the Website are expressed in US Dollars, excluding local taxes imposed by the authorities in some countries and other fees, whether or not charged by Livly or any Property Supplier. The price of Services reserved on the Website or by telephone must be paid to Livly.  Payment may be charged by more than one party (as will be shown on the Tenant’s bank or credit card statement); however, the total amount charged will not exceed the total price of the Services plus any fees, charges, or taxes levied by Livly, the Property Supplier, or any governmental authority.

The Tenant shall provide the details of the Tenant’s payment card, and Livly will often have to verify: (i) the validity of the payment card (through a charge of a nominal value that is either refunded within a few days or deducted from the final payment due to the Property Supplier) and, (ii) the availability of funds on the payment card (to be confirmed by the bank issuing the Tenant’s credit card).

7.2. Tax Recovery Charge

Except as provided below concerning tax obligations on the amounts we retain for our services, Livly does not collect taxes for remittance to applicable taxing authorities. The tax charges on prepaid Rent are a recovery of the estimated transaction taxes (e.g. sales and use, occupancy, room tax, excise tax, value added tax, etc.) that Livly pays to the Property Suppliers for taxes due on the rental of the appropriate property. The Property Supplier invoices Livly for tax amounts. The Property Suppliers are responsible for remitting applicable taxes to the applicable taxing jurisdictions. Livly does not act as a co-vendor with the property or Property Supplier with whom our Tenant reserves travel arrangements. Taxability and the appropriate tax rate vary greatly by location. The actual tax amounts paid by Livly to the Property Suppliers may vary from the tax recovery charge amounts, depending upon the rates, taxability, etc., in effect at the time of the actual use of the Property Supplier’s property by the Tenant. In addition to the above, in certain jurisdictions, sales, use and/or local occupancy taxes may be imposed on the amounts that Livly charges for its Services. The actual tax amounts on our Services, if any, may vary depending on the rates in effect at the time of Your Rentals.

Article 8. Tenant Service and the handling of complaints

Queries or requests for information or complaints, should be sent to support@Livly.app for ease of resolution, Tenant are encouraged to bring their complaints within 14 days of the incident. Any hard copy complaints should be directed to the Property Supplier providing the Service offered through Livly or the Website using the address provided in their Rules and Restrictions or to Livly.

Tenant are encouraged to raise any issues they experience during their trip via the number above (or as soon as reasonably possible), so that measures can be taken to resolve the problem and to limit the damage suffered by the Tenant.

Complaints about loss of, theft of or damage to luggage, clothing or personal belongings that were not under the Tenant’s control during the stay should be addressed to the appropriate Property Supplier.

Article 9. Livly ’s Liability

Each Tenant and Property Supplier accepts that where Livly acts as an interface between the Tenant and the Property Suppliers, Livly will under no circumstances be held liable concerning Services the Tenant has used or Rent the Tenant has made with one or more Property Suppliers. Livly is not liable if and insofar as the Tenant is able to claim for damages under an insurance policy such as travel and/or vacation cancellation insurance.  Livly shall not be liable for any disputes arising between or among any Tenant(s) or Property Supplier(s).

The respective Property Suppliers have provided the information displayed on this Website, and Livly does not accept any liability for any inaccuracies.  Tenants must ensure that they verify all information given before making a Rentals.

Article 12. Final Provisions
