From time to time, you may choose to communicate with, interact with, or obtain Third Party Services from Providers, advertisers, clients, sponsors, or other promotional partners (collectively, “Advertisers”) found on or through our Services or via a hyperlinked website, service or platform. All such communication, interaction and participation is strictly and solely between you and such Advertisers and we shall not be responsible or liable to you in any way in connection with these activities or transactions (including, without limitation, any representations, warranties, covenants, contracts or other terms or conditions that may exist between you and the Advertisers or any goods or services you may purchase or obtain from any Advertiser).

9. PAYMENT, PRICING, AND RELATED TERMS.
Service Fee
Roomi may charge Listing, marketing and Listing boosts fees to Providers (“Provider Fees”) and/or service or marketing fees to Movers (“Mover Fees”) collectively, “Service Fees”) in consideration for the use of the Services. More information about when Service Fees apply and how they are calculated is available to you upon checkout when you book a Listing and at https://help.roomiapp.com/general/how-do-i-boost-my-listing. Any applicable Service Fees (including any applicable taxes) will be displayed to a Provider or Mover prior to publishing or booking an Accommodation and, depending on if you are a Mover or a Provider, shall be either added to or deducted from a Mover’s first month’s Rental Payment. Roomi reserves the right to change the Service Fees at any time, and will provide users adequate notice of any fee changes before they become effective.
You are responsible for paying any Service Fees that you owe to Roomi. The applicable Service Fees (including any applicable taxes) are collected by RoomiPay or a third party service provider. RoomiPay or the third party service provider will deduct any Service Fees from the Provider Fee before remitting the payout to the Provider. Any Mover Fees are included in the total fees collected by RoomiPay. Except as otherwise provided in the Services, Service Fees are non-refundable.
Additional Fee-Based Services
 We may make available certain fee-based transactions, content and other e-commerce services, including, without limitation, the ability to elect to undergo a background check and coordinate with our third party insurance partner to obtain renters insurance (“Fee-Based Services”). Certain Fee-Based Services may utilize third party service providers (e.g., Apple, IDCheckr, etc.), and all purchases made through these third party service providers are subject to their respective terms and conditions, and in the event of a conflict between such third party’s terms and conditions and these Terms, the terms and conditions of the third party service provider shall govern and control. Roomi is not responsible and has no liability whatsoever for goods or services you obtain through our third party service providers or other web sites or web pages. We encourage you to make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online transaction with any of these third parties. You agree to pay in full the prices for any purchases made using the User Account registered to you, including all applicable taxes and exchange fees.
Payment Method and Terms
 Our Services may accept certain methods of payment which will be indicated at the time of purchase as forms of payment (each, an “Authorized Payment Method”), subject to certain restrictions, including, without limitation, territory restrictions, bank/payment card restrictions, redemption restrictions, spending limits, third party service provider restrictions or otherwise, which may prevent the processing of your order. If a transaction has been declined online due to payment card issues, please ensure all data is correct and resubmit. If the transaction is not accepted online, you will be unable to use that card for your transaction and should use another Authorized Payment Method. If a payment card company is being used for a transaction, Roomi may obtain a pre-approval from the applicable payment card company for an amount up to the amount of the order. All purchases and redemptions are final once you click the “Submit”, “Book” or similar button/link and billing to your payment card occurs at such time or shortly thereafter. If payment is not received by us from your credit card issuer, you agree to promptly pay all amounts due upon demand by us. Roomi reserves the right to change any and all prices or values for any products or services at any time, for any reason.
Taxes
 If you are a Provider, you are solely responsible for determining your obligations to report, collect, remit or include in your Rent Payments any applicable VAT or other indirect sales taxes, occupancy tax, tourist or other visitor taxes or income taxes. Tax regulations may require us to collect appropriate tax information from Providers, or to withhold taxes from payments made to Providers, or both.
 In the event that Roomi is required to make any payments on behalf of a Provider to any tax authority, Provider shall immediately reimburse Roomi in full for such payments, including any interest assessed by such tax authority. You agree that any claim or cause of action relating to Roomi's facilitation any taxes shall not extend to any supplier or vendor that may be used by Roomi in connection with facilitation of any taxes, if any. Movers and Providers 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 Roomi from the applicable tax authority in accordance with applicable procedures set by that tax authority.
You understand that any appropriate governmental agency, department and/or authority where your Accommodation is located may require taxes to be collected from Movers or Providers on Rent Payments, 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 Rent Payments set by Providers, a set amount per day, or other variations, that may be referred to as “occupancy taxes” or “room taxes.”
Roomi reserves the right, with prior notice to Providers, to cease the collection of any taxes in any jurisdiction for any reason at which point Providers and Movers 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.
Additional Terms and Conditions
 Roomi may revise any or all of the fees and prices associated with the Fee-Based Services at any time for any or no reason. Further, while we try to be as accurate as possible when describing and displaying our products and services, Roomi does not guarantee that product or service descriptions or other content and products will be available, accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free. Descriptions and images of, and references to, products or services on or in connection with the Fee-Based Services do not imply Roomi’s endorsement of such products or services. Despite our best efforts, some products or services may be mispriced or unavailable.
Roomi and its third party operational service providers reserve the right to change Listings and descriptions, images, and references, and to limit the availability dates of any Accommodation. Further, if Roomi terminates your use of or registration to our Services because you have breached these Terms, you shall not be entitled to a refund of any Service Fees, Rent Payments, Security Deposits, payments or other consideration.

Roomi strongly encourages Providers to require Movers to execute a lease or agreement with Movers in order to set forth all applicable terms and conditions associated with the leasing of the Accommodation and establish a binding agreement between the Provider and Mover.UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL ROOMI BE LIABLE IN ANY WAY FOR ANY CLAIMS RELATED TO ANY LISTING, A PROVIDER’S FAILURE TO EXECUTE A LEASE OR AGREEMENT WITH A MOVER OR ANY SUCH CANCELLATION, REFUND AND/OR PAYOUT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, A PROVIDER’S INABILITY TO FIND A DIFFERENT MOVER FOR THE ACCOMMODATION OR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND INCURRED AS A RESULT OF SUCH FAILURE TO EXECUTE A LEASE OR AGREEMENT OR FOR ANY INACCURACIES IN THE LISTING. Listing Content used in your Listing must accurately reflect the quality and condition of the Accommodation and Provider Service. Unless expressly allowed by Roomi, you may not list more than one Accommodation per Listing. Roomi reserves the right to require that Accommodations have a minimum amount of Listing Content and with regard to photos or images, require a certain format, size and resolution. You are responsible for keeping your Accommodation information (including availability, Listing Content and Rent Payment) up-to-date at all times. Under no circumstances shall Roomi be liable in any way for any claims arising out of or related to the Listing, Listing Content, Cancellation Policy or the Accommodation, including, without limitation, a Provider’s or Mover’s use of the Accommodation, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of such Provider’s or Mover’s use of the Accommodation.
Rent Payment. You are solely responsible for setting a rental price (including any taxes if applicable, or charges such as cleaning fees) for your Accommodation (“Rent Payment”). Once a Mover requests to move into your Accommodation, you may not request that the Mover pay a higher Rent Payment than in the rental request. If you do request a higher Rent Payment, the Mover will have the right to cancel the booking for your Accommodation and receive a full-refund of the Total Fees.
Accommodation Requests. When you accept or have pre-approved a rental request by a Mover, you are entering into a legally binding agreement with the Mover and are required to provide the Accommodation to the Mover as described in your Listing and the terms set forth in the Listing Content, including the Rent Payment, when the Accommodation request is made. You also agree to pay the applicable Provider Fee and any applicable taxes.
Security Deposit. If you choose to require a security deposit for your Accommodation, you must specify this in your Listing ("Security Deposit"). Providers are not allowed to ask for a Security Deposit after an Accommodation request has been confirmed or outside of the Services. If you subsequently ask a Mover to provide a Security Deposit and the Mover does not agree to pay the Security Deposit, this constitutes a refusal to render Provider Services and Mover may cancel the booking. Roomi will not be involved in and is not responsible for administering or accepting any Security Deposits nor any claims by Providers related to Security Deposits. You, not Roomi, shall remain fully liable and responsible to hold the Security Deposit in a manner consistent with applicable laws and to return the Security Deposit to the Mover upon expiration of the lease term.
Cancellation Policy
 As a Housing Provider and Premium Housing Provider you have the ability to select which Cancellation Policy applies to your Listing. The Relaxed Cancellation Policy shall be the only Cancellation Policy available for Listings created by Listers. Once you select the applicable Cancellation Policy, the policy may not be modified after an Accommodation request has been confirmed. You can learn more information about Roomi’s Cancellation Policies and considerations for which policy you may prefer to choose for your Listing by visiting Roomi’s Cancellation Policy Terms and Conditions.
Provider Representations and Warranties. You represent and warrant that any Listing you post and the rental of, or a Mover's stay at, an Accommodation will (a) not breach any agreements you have entered into with any third parties, such as landowners, homeowners association, condominium, or other agreements, and (b) 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 Provider, 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 Mover and any individuals the Mover invites to the Accommodation.

11. ADDITIONAL TERMS SPECIFIC TO PREMIUM HOUSING PROVIDERS
In addition to abiding by the additional terms specific to Housing Providers, the following terms apply to Premium Housing Providers.
Requirements. In order to receive the “Premium Housing Provider” designation, Housing Providers must: (1) have completed five Accommodation bookings successfully, (2) supply Roomi with a letter of recommendation from a previous Mover and (3) complete the additional screening questions with a Roomi account manager. You may contact an account manager to arrange to complete the additional screening questions by emailing us at partnerships@roomiapp.com.
Additional Benefits. Premium Housing Providers are eligible to receive additional benefits including Early Payouts (as further described below), premium marketing placement for their Listings and extended payment terms for Provider Fees.
Early Payouts. Certain Premium Housing Providers may be eligible to receive a portion of their Rent Payments (“Early Payout”) for a booking prior to the start date of a confirmed booking Accommodation by using the payment service that initiates payouts of Rent Payments to Premium Housing Providers (the “Early Payouts Service”). The Early Payout Service is subject to a fee equal to one percent (1%) of the first month’s Rent Payments (the “Payout Fee”). The Early Payouts Service modifies the schedule in which Roomi would initiate payouts of Rent Payments for confirmed booking Accommodations to enable the Premium Housing Provider to receive Rent Payments (less any applicable fees and charges including, Provider Fees and the Payout Fee) within forty-eight (48) hours of a confirmed booking for an Accommodation.
You are only eligible to use the Early Payout Service if: (1) you are a Premium Housing Provider and (2) the booking confirmation for an Accommodation is received between twenty-one and ninety (21-90) days in advance of the start date of the confirmed booking. In the event that you owe Roomi any outstanding amounts (e.g., Provider Fees, Cancellation Fees, Service Fees, etc.), Roomi will deduct those outstanding amounts from the Early Payout prior to remitting any Early Payout to the Premium Housing Provider.
Cancellations shall follow the Cancellation Policy you have chosen for the applicable Listing. If you receive an Early Payout for a confirmed booking of an Accommodation that is later cancelled, you agree to promptly return the Early Payout to Roomi. Without limiting any of Roomi’s other rights or remedies under these Terms, Roomi may offset such amounts attributable to the Early Payout against any other amounts due and payable to you by Roomi in connection with your use of the Services.

12. ADDITIONAL TERMS SPECIFIC TO MOVERS
Accommodation Requests. When you submit an Accommodation request, you agree that you are making an offer to the Provider to enter into a legally binding agreement with the Provider to rent the Accommodation for the lease term. You acknowledge and agree that a Provider may accept or reject your offer to rent the Accommodation in Provider’s sole and absolute discretion. Roomi will promptly notify you by email once an Accommodation request has been accepted or rejected by a Provider.
Mover Fees and Rent Payments. Subject to meeting any requirements (such as completing any verification processes) set by Roomi and/or the Provider, you can book or rent an Accommodation available via the Services by following the respective booking process. All applicable fees, including the Mover Fee, Security Deposit (if applicable), the first Rent Payment and any applicable taxes (collectively, “Total Fees”) will be presented to you prior to confirming your rental of the Accommodation. Roomi (via its payment processing partner) will collect the first month’s Rent Payment and Mover Fee upon confirmation of your booking of an Accommodation and shall remit such amounts to Provider immediately following the scheduled start date of an Accommodation rental. Except to the extent a Mover uses the RoomiPay service to deliver a Rent Payment to a Provider, all Rent Payments and Security Deposit payments made by Mover to Provider following the first Rent Payment shall be transacted directly between the Mover and Provider and Roomi (and its payment processing partners) shall have no responsibility or liability with regard to such payments. You agree to pay the Total Fees for any booking requested in connection with your User Account.
Rental Confirmation. Upon receipt of a rental confirmation regarding an Accommodation from Roomi, a legally binding agreement is formed between you and your Provider, subject to any additional terms and conditions of the Provider that apply, including in particular the Cancellation Policy or any rules and restrictions specified in the Listing. Additionally, it is your responsibility to comply with any requirements the Provider may have, including the provision of character references and/or guarantor information. Roomi (via its payment processing partners) shall collect the first month’s Rent Payment and Mover Fee upon confirmation of your booking of an Accommodation.
Modifications, Cancellations and Refunds.
Housing Providers and Premium Housing Providers may select which Cancellation Policy applies to their Listings. The Relaxed Cancellation Policy shall be the only Cancellation Policy available for Listings created by Listers. To learn more about the Cancellation Policies Housing Providers and Premium Housing Providers may choose from and your rights associated with each Cancellation Policy, please visit Roomi’s Cancellation Policy Terms and Conditions.
A Mover and Provider is responsible for any modifications to the rental terms with respect to a confirmed rental Accommodation that such Mover or Provider makes via the Services, direct Roomi Customer Service to make, or that such Mover or Provider makes offline and agrees to pay any additional Provider Fees, Mover Fees, Rent Payments and/or taxes associated with such modification. Movers can cancel a confirmed booking in accordance with the Listing’s Cancellation Policy, and as applicable, Roomi or Provider, will refund the amount of the Total Fees due to the Mover in accordance with such Cancellation Policy. Unless extenuating circumstances exist (as determined by Roomi in its sole discretion), you shall remain fully liable for and agree to remit any portion of the Total Fees due to the Provider under the applicable Cancellation Policy.
If a Provider cancels a confirmed rental, the Mover will receive a full refund of the Total Fees for such rental within a commercially reasonable time of the cancellation. Roomi may publish an automated review on the Listing cancelled by the Provider indicating that a booking was cancelled. In addition, Roomi may (i) keep the calendar for the Listing unavailable or blocked for the dates of the cancelled lease term, (ii) impose a lease cancellation fee, unless the Provider has a valid reason for cancelling the rental, to be determined in Roomi’s sole and absolute discretion, or has legitimate concerns about the Mover’s behavior and such fee shall be payable upon receipt of invoice from Roomi, (iii) suspend and/or terminate the Provider’s User Account and/or (iv) move Provider’s Listing to the bottom of the Listing search results or otherwise de-prioritize such Listing.
A Mover will also receive a full refund of the Total Fees for such rental in the event that Mover suffers either: (a) the Provider cancels a rental shortly before the scheduled start of the rental, or fails to provide the Mover with the reasonable ability to access the Accommodation (e.g., does not provide the keys and/or a security code); (b) the Mover cancels a confirmed rental because the Accommodation’s description in the Listing or depiction of the Accommodation is materially inaccurate with respect to: (i) the size of the Accommodation (e.g., number and size of the bedroom, bathroom and/or kitchen or other rooms), (ii) whether the booking for the Accommodation is for an entire home, private room or shared room, and whether another party, including the Provider, is staying at the Accommodation during the lease term, (iii) special amenities or features represented in the Listing are not provided or do not function, such as decks, pools, hot tubs, bathrooms (toilet/shower/bathtub), kitchen (sink/stove/refrigerator or major other appliances), and electrical, heating or air condition systems, or (iv) the physical location of the Accommodation (proximity); or (c) the Mover cancels a confirmed rental because at the start of the Mover’s booking, the Accommodation (i) is not generally clean and sanitary (ii) contains safety or health hazards that would be reasonably expected to adversely affect the Mover’s stay at the Accommodation in Roomi’s sole and absolute determination or (iv) has vermin or contains pets not disclosed in the Listing.
In certain circumstances, Roomi 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 where (i) Roomi believes in good faith, while taking the legitimate interests of both parties into account, this is necessary to avoid significant harm to Roomi, other users, third parties or property, or (ii) for any of the reasons set out in these Terms. Under no circumstances shall Roomi be liable in any way for any such cancellation, refund and/or payout, including, without limitation, your inability to find a different Accommodation or to lease the cancelled Accommodation, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of such cancellation, refund and/or payout.
Roomi Rent Protection for Listers.
For some Listings and subject to the below terms and conditions, Roomi may offer a free incentive (“Rent Protection”) to Listers who require Movers to book their Accommodations online. If a Lister qualifies for Rent Protection, a Lister may receive a full or partial refund in accordance with the terms below.
To qualify for Rent Protection and receive a Rent Protection payment from Roomi, you must: (a) provide Roomi with information supporting your request to alter the terms of an accepted booking and/or cancel the booking 24 hours after the move-in date, (b) respond to requests from and provide additional information to Roomi regarding the cancellation request, (c) not have directly or indirectly caused the circumstances leading to your request for cancellation (e.g., the Accommodation’s description in the Listing or depiction of the Accommodation is materially inaccurate, etc.), (d) have contacted Roomi requesting to cancel the booking no later than two weeks after the move-in date, (e) have made reasonable efforts to remedy the circumstances giving rise to the reason for your request for cancellation, including contacting the Mover via the Services, (f) provide reasonable evidence that the Mover vacated the Accommodation and has found an alternative rental space and (g) not have received a chat request from other potential Movers for a period of 14 days from the date that the original Mover vacated the Accommodation. If Lister meets the above prerequisites for Rent Protection, Lister will be eligible to receive up to one month’s Rental Fee for the Accommodation. In the event of any dispute related to Rent Protection, Roomi shall make the final determination with regard to such request in its sole and absolute discretion

13. DAMAGE TO ACCOMMODATIONS; DISPUTES BETWEEN USERS.

Any provision which must survive in order to allow us to enforce its meaning shall survive the termination of these Terms; however, no action arising out of these Terms or your use of our Services, regardless of form or the basis of the claim, may be brought by you more than one year after the cause of action has arisen (or if multiple causes, from the date the first such case arose).

B. These Terms and the rights of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, exclusive of conflict or choice of law rules. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration in New York County, New York before one arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. The parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and the award, including the hearing, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision. The parties acknowledge that these Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce. Any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of these Terms shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C., Secs. 1-16). In any arbitration arising out of or related to these Terms, the arbitrator shall award to the prevailing party, if any, the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the arbitration. If the arbitrator determines a party to be the prevailing party under circumstances where the prevailing party won on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims, the arbitrator may award the prevailing party an appropriate percentage of the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the arbitration. Each of you and Roomi agree to adopt and agree to implement the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedure (as it exists on the effective date of these Terms) with respect to any final award in an arbitration arising out of or related to these Terms.
C. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, EACH OF YOU AND ROOMI WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PURSUE DISPUTES ON A CLASS WIDE BASIS; THAT IS, TO EITHER JOIN A CLAIM WITH THE CLAIM OF ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY, OR ASSERT A CLAIM IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF ANYONE ELSE IN ANY ARBITRATION.
D. To the extent that there is a conflict between these Terms and the Additional Terms, the Additional Terms shall govern. To the extent that there is a conflict between these Terms and the specific Rules for the activity in which you choose to participate, the Rules shall govern.

24.BACKGROUND CHECKS

Background Check Policy
Roomi has partnered with Garbo to help users make safer decisions about who they want to live with. Garbo’s background check platform can show if someone has a history of violent or harmful behavior via public records of arrests, convictions, and sex offender registries. In order to run a safety check on Garbo, users will need to first collect information of the target of the search, such as the first name and phone number. Garbo search credits are included as a benefit in some paid plans andare only available for the following users:

  1. Roomi users seeking housing (a “Roomi Mover”); and
  2. Roomi users seeking a Roomi Mover (a “Roomi Lister”), whereby the Roomi Lister meets the following conditions (the “Roomi Lister Background Check Conditions”) as it relates to their relationship with a Roomi Mover: 1) that the Roomi Lister will NOT enter into a lease or sublease agreement directly with the Roomi Mover; and 2) that the Roomi Lister will NOT collect rent or security deposit directly from the Roomi Mover.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE BACKGROUND CHECK SERVICE IS BEING PROVIDED BY A THIRD-PARTY AND NOT BY ROOMI. BY ELECTING TO USE THE BACKGROUND CHECK SERVICE, YOU HEREBY AGREE TO RELEASE AND FOREVER DISCHARGE ROOMI AND EACH OF ITS AFFILIATES FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, ACTIONS, DAMAGES, COSTS OR EXPENSES OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, KNOWN OR UNKNOWN, THAT YOU MAY EVER HAD, NOW HAS OR HEREAFTER CAN, SHALL OR MAY HAVE AGAINST ROOMI AND/OR EACH OF ITS AFFILIATES ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE BACKGROUND CHECK, INCLUDING THE THIRD-PARTY VENDOR’S COLLECTION, USE AND VERIFICATION OF YOUR INFORMATION AND THE RESULTS OF THE BACKGROUND CHECK.
