The Site, Application and Services can be used to facilitate the listing and booking of Accommodations. Such Accommodations are included in Listings on the Site, Application and Services by Hosts. You may view Listings as an unregistered visitor to the Site, Application and Services; however, if you wish to book an Accommodation or create a Listing, you must first register to create an TIPBNB Account (defined below).

TIPBNB makes available an online platform or marketplace with related technology for Guests and Hosts to meet online and arrange for bookings of Accommodations directly with each other. TIPBNB is not an owner or operator of properties, including, but not limited to, hotel rooms, motel rooms, other lodgings or Accommodations.

6.  Account Registration

You must register to create an account ("TIPBNB Account") in order to access certain features of the Site and Application, and to book an Accommodation or create a Listing and become a Member. You may register to join the Services directly via the Site or Application or as described in this section.

You can also register to join by logging into your account with certain third-party social networking sites ("SNS") (including, but not limited to, Facebook; each such account, a "Third-Party Account"), via our Site or Application, as described below. As part of the functionality of the Site, Application and Services, you may link your TIPBNB Account with Third-Party Accounts, by either: (i) providing your Third-Party Account login information to TIPBNB through the Site, Services or Application; or (ii) allowing TIPBNB to access your Third-Party Account, as permitted under the applicable terms and conditions that govern your use of each Third-Party Account. You represent that you are entitled to disclose your Third-Party Account login information to TIPBNB and/or grant TIPBNB e 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 TIPBNB to pay any fees or making TIPBNB subject to any usage limitations imposed by such third-party service providers. By granting TIPBNB access to any Third-Party Accounts, you understand that TIPBNB 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 TIPBNB Account and TIPBNB 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 TIPBNB Account on the Site, Services and Application. Please note that if a Third-Party Account or associated service becomes unavailable or TIPBNB'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 TIPBNB Account and your Third-Party Accounts, at any time, by accessing the "Settings" section of the Site and Application. 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. TIPBNB makes no effort to review any SNS Content for any purpose, including but not limited to for accuracy, legality or non-infringement and TIPBNB is not responsible for any SNS Content.

Your TIPBNB Account and your TIPBNB Account profile page will be created for your use of the Site and Application based upon the personal information you provide to us or that we obtain via an SNS as described above. You shall not have more than one (1) active TIPBNB Account. You must provide accurate, current and complete information during the registration process and to update such information to keep it accurate, current and complete. TIPBNB reserves the right to suspend or terminate your TIPBNB Account and your access to the Site, Application and Services if you create more than one (1) TIPBNB Account, or if any information provided during the registration process or thereafter proves to be inaccurate, fraudulent, not current, incomplete, or otherwise in violation of these Terms of Service.

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 TIPBNB Account, whether or not you have authorized such activities or actions. You will immediately notify TIPBNB of any unauthorized use of your TIPBNB Account.

7.  Accommodation Listings

As a Member, you may create Listings. During this process, you will be asked a variety of questions about the Accommodation to be listed, including, but not limited to, the location, capacity, size, features, and 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. You understand and agree that the placement or ranking of Listings in search results may depend on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, Guest and Host preferences, ratings and/or ease of booking.

Other Members will be able to book your Accommodation via the Site, Application and Services based upon the information provided in your Listing, your Guest requirements, and Guests' search parameters and preferences. You understand and agree that once a Guest requests a booking of your Accommodation, you may not request the Guest to pay a higher price than in the booking request.

You acknowledge and agree that you alone are responsible for any and all Listings and Member Content you post. Accordingly, you represent and warrant that any Listing you post and the booking of, or a Guest's stay at, an Accommodation in a Listing you post (i) will not breach any agreements you have entered into with any third parties, such as homeowners association, condominium, lease or rental agreements, and (ii) will (a) be in compliance with all applicable laws (such as zoning laws and laws governing rentals of residential and other properties), Tax requirements, Intellectual Property laws, and rules and regulations that may apply to any Accommodation included in a Listing you post (including having all required permits, licenses and registrations), and (b) not conflict with the rights of third parties. TIPBNB assumes no responsibility for a Host's compliance with any agreements with or duties to third parties, applicable laws, rules and regulations. TIPBNB reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, to remove or disable access to any Listing for any reason, including Listings that TIPBNB, in its sole discretion, considers to be objectionable for any reason, in violation of these Terms, o TIPBNB’S then-current Policies and Community Guidelines, or otherwise harmful to the Site, Application or Services.

If you are a Host, you understand and agree that TIPBNB does not act as an insurer or as your contracting agent. 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 TIPBNB is not a party to it.

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, such as 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, TIPBNB makes certain tools available to you to help you to make informed decisions about which Members you choose to confirm or preapprove 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.)

TIPBNB 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.

 

8.  No Endorsement

TIPBNB does not endorse any Member, Listing or Accommodation. You understand that Verified Photos are intended only to indicate a photographic representation of the Accommodation at the time the photograph was taken. Verified Photos are therefore not an endorsement by TIPBNB of any Member, Listing or Accommodation.

Members are required by these Terms to provide accurate information. TIPBNB may, for transparency or fraud prevention or detection purposes, directly or through third parties, ask you to provide a form of government identification, your date of birth, and other information, or undertake additional checks and processes designed to help verify or check the identities or backgrounds of Members and/or screen Member information against third party databases or other sources. However, TIPBNB does not make any representations about, confirm, or endorse any Member or the Member's purported identity or background.

By registering for an TIPBNB Account, you agree that TIPBNB may - but is not obligated to - request a consumer report on you from a Consumer Reporting Agency. If we do request a consumer report, we'll request and use it in compliance with applicable law, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Any references in the Site, Application or Services to a Member being "verified" or "connected" (or similar language) only indicate that the Member has completed a relevant verification or identification process, and does not represent anything else. Any such description is not an endorsement, certification or guarantee by TIPBNB about any Member, including of the Member's identity and whether the Member is trustworthy, safe or suitable. Instead, any such description is intended to be useful information for you to evaluate when you make your own decisions about the identity and suitability of others whom you contact or interact with via the Site, Application and Services. We therefore recommend that you always exercise due diligence and care when deciding whether to stay with a Host or to accept or preapprove a booking request from a Guest, or to have any other interaction with any other Member. TIPBNB is not 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. You agree not to attempt to impose liability on or seek any legal remedy from TIPBNB 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. This limitation shall not apply to any claim by a Host against TIPBNB regarding the remittance of payments received from a Guest by TIPBNB on behalf of a Host, which instead shall be subject to the limitations described in the section below entitled "Limitation of Liability".

9.  Bookings and Financial Terms

A.    Key definitions

"Accommodation Fees" means the amounts that are due and payable by a Guest in exchange for that Guest's stay in an Accommodation. The Host alone, and not TIPBNB, is responsible for the Accommodation Fees for his or her Listing. The Host may in his or her sole discretion decide to include in these amounts (i) a cleaning fee or any other fee permitted on the TIPBNB platform, or (ii) Taxes that the Host determines that he or she has to collect.

"Guest Fees" means the fee that TIPBNB charges a Guest for the use of the Services, which is calculated as a percentage of the applicable Accommodation Fees. The Guest Fees will be displayed to the Guest when the Guest is asked whether to send a booking request to a Host.

"Host Fees" means the fee that TIPBNB charges a Host for the use of the Services, which is calculated as a percentage of the applicable Accommodation Fees. The Host Fees will be displayed to the Host when the Host is asked whether to confirm or reject a booking request from a prospective Guest.

"Payment Method" means a payment method that you have added to your TIPBNB Account, such as a credit card, debit card or PayPal.

"Service Fees" means collectively the Guest Fees and the Host Fees.

"Total Fees" means collectively the Accommodation Fees and the Guest Fees plus any Taxes.

B.    Bookings and Financial Terms for Hosts

If you are a Host and a booking is requested for your Accommodation via the Site, Application or Services, you will be required to either preapprove, confirm or reject the booking request within the Booking Request Period. Failure to do so will cause the booking request to automatically expire. If you are unable to confirm or decide to reject a booking request within the Booking Request Period, any amounts collected by TIPBNB for the requested booking will be refunded to the applicable Guest, minus all associated fees which are due to TIPBNB.

Prior to acceptance, TIPBNB will share with you generic data regarding the guest, particularly data which cannot be used to form inherent biases. TIPBNB will also provide an indication of whether or not the Guest has provided other information to TIPBNB, such as a verified email address, connection to SNSs, or a government ID.

Once a booking is accepted via the Site, Application or Services, TIPBNB e will then share with you (i) the first and last name of the Guest who has requested the booking, (ii) a link to the Guest's TIPBNB Account profile page, and (iii) if the Guest and Host have both connected their TIPBNB  counts to SNS and have not turned off sharing of social connections, the names of any shared connections on such SNS. When you confirm a booking requested by a Guest, TIPBNB 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.

TIPBNB will collect the Total Fees from Guests at the time of the booking request or upon the Host's confirmation and will initiate payment of the Accommodation Fees (less applicable fees and taxes) to the Host in most cases within 24 hours of the scheduled check-in time of the Guest at the applicable Accommodation (except to the extent that a refund is due to the Guest).

Each Host agrees that TIPBNB may, in accordance with the cancellation policy selected by the Host and reflected in the relevant Listing, (i) permit the Guest to cancel the booking and (ii) refund to the Guest that portion of the Accommodation Fees specified in the applicable cancellation policy.

All Hosts and Guests also agree to be bound to the terms of TIPBNB’s Guest Refund Policy.

C.     Bookings and Financial Terms for Guests

The Hosts, not TIPBNB, 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 TIPBNB, will be responsible for performing the obligations of any such agreements, that TIPBNB is not a party to such agreements, and that TIPBNB (including any or all subsidiaries) disclaims all liability arising from or related to any such agreements.

The Total Fees payable will be displayed to a Guest before the Guest sends a booking request to a Host. As noted above, the Host is required to either preapprove, confirm or reject the booking request within the Booking Request Period; otherwise, the requested booking will be automatically cancelled. Upon receipt of your booking request, TIPBNB may initiate a pre-authorization and/or charge a nominal amount to your Payment Method. If a requested booking is cancelled (i.e. not confirmed by the applicable Host), any amounts collected by TIPBNB 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 Payment Method will be released, if applicable.

You as a Guest agree to pay the Total Fees for any booking requested, and in most cases confirmed, in connection with your TIPBNB Account. TIPBNB Payments will collect the Total Fees.

Once your confirmed booking transaction is complete you will receive a confirmation email summarizing your confirmed booking.

D.    Service Fees and Other Fees

In consideration for the use of TIPBNB's online marketplace and platform, TIPBNB charges Service Fees. TIPBNB collects these Service Fees and, where applicable, may also collect Taxes (such as VAT in Europe) in respect of the Host Fees and Guest Fees. TIPBNB deducts the Host Fees from the Accommodation Fees before remitting the balance to the Host. Guest Fees are, as noted above, included in the Total Fees.

More information on any such costs or deductions will be available via the Site and Application. Except as otherwise provided herein, Service Fees are non-refundable.

E.     General Booking and Financial Terms

Cancellations and Refunds

If, as a Guest, you wish to cancel a confirmed booking made via the Site, Application and Services, either prior to or after arriving at the Accommodation, the cancellation policy of the Host contained in the applicable Listing will apply to such cancellation. TIPBNB’s ability to refund the Accommodation Fees 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. The Guest Fee is non-refundable regardless of the cancellation policy selected by the Host. TIPBNB will initiate any refunds due.

If a Host cancels a confirmed booking made via the Site, Services, and Application, (i) TIPBNB e will refund the Total Fees for such booking to the applicable Guest and (ii) the Guest will receive an email or other communication from TIPBNB containing alternative Listings and 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 TIPBNB the Total Fees relating to the confirmed booking for the Accommodation in the alternative Listing, in accordance with these Terms. If a Host cancelled a confirmed booking and you, as a Guest, have not received an email or other communication from TIPBNB, please contact TIPBNB .

If, as a Host, you cancel a confirmed booking, you agree that TIPBNB may apply penalties or consequences to you or your Listing, including (i) publishing an automated review on your Listing indicating that a booking was cancelled, (ii) keeping the calendar for your Listing unavailable or blocked for the dates of the cancelled booking, or (iii) imposing a cancellation fee. You will be notified of the situations in which a cancellation fee applies before you decide to cancel.

In certain circumstances, TIPBNB may decide, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary or desirable to cancel a confirmed booking made via the Site, Application and Services. This may be for reasons set forth in  TIPBNB 's Extenuating Circumstances policy   or for any other reason. TIPBNB may also determine, in its sole discretion, to refund to the Guest part or all of the amounts charged to the Guest in accordance with the Guest Refund Policy. You agree that TIPBNB and the relevant Guest or Host will not have any liability for such cancellations or refunds.

Rounding Off

TIPBNB may, in its sole discretion, round up or round down amounts that are payable from or to Guests or Hosts to the nearest whole functional base unit in which the currency is denominated (e.g. to the nearest dollar, euro or other supported currency); for example, TIPBNB will round up an amount of $101.50 to $102.00, and $101.49 to $101.00.

Some currencies are denominated in large numbers. In those cases, TIPBNB may determine the functional base unit in which those currencies are denominated to be 10, 100 or 1,000 of the currency; the corresponding examples for such currencies would be for TIPBNB to round up an amount of 1,045 up to 1,050 and 1,044 down to 1,040, or 35,450 up to 35,500 and 35,449 down to 35,400, or 837,500 up to 838,000 and 837,499 down to 837,000.

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. TIPBNB does not take any responsibility or liability for whether the Host does in fact make the donation he or she pledged to make. In such cases, the Host in question is responsible for his or her own compliance with all laws and regulations applicable to such pledges and/or fund-raising.

Booking Modifications

You as a Guest or Host are responsible for any modifications to a booking that you direct TIPBNB Customer Service to make ("Booking Modifications"), and you agree to pay any Accommodation Fees, Guest Fees, Hosts Fees, Services Fees, and/or Taxes associated with such Booking Modifications.

10.                        Foreign Currency

TIPBNB 's online platform facilitates bookings between Guests and Hosts who may prefer to pay in a currency different from their destination currency, which may require foreign currency conversions to accommodate these differing currency preferences. Although the TIPBNB platform may allow users to view the price of Listings in a number of currencies, the currencies available for users to make and receive payments may be limited. Currencies may not include the default currency in any given geographic location.

11.                        Taxes

Tax regulations may require us to collect appropriate tax information from our Hosts, or to withhold taxes from payouts to Hosts, or both. For instance, IRS regulations stipulate that we must collect an IRS Form W--9 from certain US Hosts, and an appropriate IRS Form W--8 (e.g. Form W--8BEN) from non-US hosts with at least one Listing in the US. You as a Host understand and agree that you are solely responsible for determining (i) your applicable Tax reporting requirements, and (ii) the Taxes that should be included, and for including Taxes to be collected or obligations relating to applicable Taxes in Listings. You are also solely responsible for remitting to the relevant authority any Taxes included or received by you. TIPBNB cannot and does not offer Tax-related advice to any Members.

You as a Host are solely responsible for keeping the information in your tax forms current, complete and accurate. If you as a Host fail to provide us with documentation that we determine to be sufficient to alleviate our obligation (if any) to withhold taxes from payments to you (e.g. where you are a US Host and you fail to provide us with a completed IRS Form W--9), we reserve the right in our sole discretion to freeze all payouts to you until resolution, to withhold such amounts as required by law, or to do both.

Where applicable, or based upon request from a Host, TIPBNB may issue a valid VAT Invoice to such Host.

You understand and acknowledge that appropriate governmental agencies, departments or authorities (the "Tax Authority") where your Accommodation is located may require Taxes to be collected from Guests or Hosts on the amount paid for the right to use and/or occupancy of accommodations, 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 or Accommodation Fees set by Hosts, a set amount per day, or other variations, and are sometimes called "occupancy taxes," "hotel taxes," "lodging taxes," "transient taxes," "sales and use taxes," "value added taxes," "room taxes" or "tourist taxes" (hereafter, "Occupancy Taxes").

A.    Occupancy Tax Collection and Remittance

In certain jurisdictions, TIPBNB may decide in its sole discretion to facilitate collection and remittance of Occupancy Taxes from or on behalf of Guests or Hosts, in accordance with your directions in these Terms ("Collection and Remittance") if such tax jurisdiction asserts TIPBNB or Hosts have a tax collection and remittance obligation. In any jurisdiction in which we decide to facilitate direct Collection and Remittance, whether you are a Guest or Host, in lieu of the Host collecting Occupancy taxes from Guests and remitting to the Tax Authority, you hereby instruct and authorize TIPBNB to collect Occupancy Taxes from Guests on the Host's behalf at the time Accommodation Fees are collected, and to remit such Occupancy Taxes to the Tax Authority. When TIPBNB facilitates Collection and Remittance of Occupancy Taxes in a jurisdiction for the first time, TIPBNB will provide notice to existing Hosts with Listings for Accommodations in such jurisdictions. When a new Listing is created in a jurisdiction where TIPBNB facilitates Collection and Remittance of Occupancy Taxes, the Host will be notified during the Listing creation process.

The amount of Occupancy Taxes, if any, collected and remitted by TIPBNB will be visible to and separately stated to both Guests and Hosts on their respective transaction documents. Where TIPBNB is directly facilitating Collection and Remittance, Guests and Hosts agree that Hosts are not permitted to attempt collection or collect any Occupancy Taxes relating to their Accommodations on TIPBNB in that such jurisdiction. You expressly agree to release, defend, indemnify, and hold TIPBNB and its affiliates and subsidiaries, and their officers, directors, employees and agents, harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, debts, obligations, a TIPBNB nd expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and/or accounting fees, arising out of or in any way related to Occupancy Taxes, including, without limitation, the applicability of, calculation, collection or remittance of Occupancy Taxes in any amount or at all as to your transactions or Accommodations. For any jurisdiction in which we facilitate Collection and Remittance, Hosts and Guests expressly grant us permission, without further notice, to store, transfer and disclose data and other information relating to them or to their transactions, bookings, Accommodations and Occupancy Taxes, including, but not limited to, personally identifiable information such as Host or Guest's name, Listing addresses, transaction dates and amounts, tax identification number(s), the amount of taxes collected from Guests or allegedly due, contact information and similar information, to the relevant Tax Authority.

B.    Opt-in to Host Remittance of Taxes

In other jurisdictions, TIPBNB may decide in its sole discretion to facilitate Occupancy Tax collection on behalf of Hosts and Guests in accordance with a Host's direction to opt in to a specific Occupancy Tax line item in the booking process, in which the Host directs that Occupancy Taxes from Guests be sent directly to the Host so that the Host will remit such taxes directly to Tax Authority ("Opt-in for Host Remittance"). In any jurisdiction in which we decide to facilitate Collection by Opt-in for Host Remittance, whether you are a Guest or Host, you hereby instruct and authorize TIPBNB to send Occupancy Taxes received from Guests at the time Accommodation Fees are collected to the Host who is obligated to send such taxes to the Tax Authority directly. If TIPBNB offers and a Host selects Opt-in for Host Remittance in any jurisdiction, Hosts and Guests remain solely responsible and liable for the payment and remittance of any and all taxes that may apply to Accommodations; you agree and understand that TIPBNB is not responsible for, and will not send any such Occupancy Taxes to the Tax Authority under Opt-in to Host Remittance of Taxes. You hereby agree that through third party payment processors, TIPBNB is merely processing Your election and direction to have Occupancy Taxes from Guests sent directly to the Host for remittance by the Host to the Tax Authority, and that You will remit all amounts collected from Guests as Occupancy Taxes to such Tax Authority. You expressly agree to release, defend, indemnify, and hold TIPBNB and its affiliates and subsidiaries, and their officers, directors, employees and agents, harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, debts, obligations, and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and/or accounting fees, arising out of or in any way related to Occupancy Taxes, including, without limitation, the applicability of, calculation of, collection of Occupancy Taxes in any amount or at all as to your transactions or Accommodations. For any jurisdiction in which we facilitate Opt-in for Host Remittance, Hosts and Guests expressly grant us permission, without further notice, to store, transfer and disclose data and other information relating to them or to their transactions, bookings, Accommodations and Occupancy Taxes, including, but not limited to, personally identifiable information such as Host or Guest's name, Listing addresses, transaction dates and amounts, tax identification number(s), the amount of taxes received by Hosts from Guests, or allegedly due, contact information and similar information, to the relevant Tax Authority.

C.     Miscellaneous Occupancy Tax Provisions

Whether you are a Guest or Host, you agree that any claim or cause of action relating to TIPBNB 's facilitation of Opt-in for Host Remittance or Collection and Remittance of Occupancy Taxes shall not extend to any supplier or vendor that may be used by TIPBNB in connection with facilitation of Opt-in Remittance or Collection and Remittance of Occupancy Taxes, if any. Guests and Hosts 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 TIPBNB from the applicable Tax Authority in accordance with applicable procedures set by that Tax Authority.

In any jurisdiction in which we have not provided notice of, or are not facilitating (or are no longer facilitating) the collection or remittance of Occupancy Taxes by Collection and Remittance, Opt-in for Host Remittance or any other means or method, in your jurisdiction, Hosts and Guests remain solely responsible and liable for the collection and/or remittance of any and all Occupancy Taxes that may apply to Accommodations.

Hosts and Guests acknowledge and agree that in some jurisdictions, TIPBNB may decide not to facilitate collection or remittance of Occupancy Taxes or may not be able to facilitate the collection and/or remittance of Occupancy Taxes, and nothing contained in these Terms of Service is a representation or guarantee that TIPBNB will facilitate collection and/or remittance of Occupancy Tax anywhere at all, including in any specific jurisdiction, or that TIPBNB will continue to facilitate any collection or remittance of Occupancy Tax in any specific jurisdiction in which it may have been offered. TIPBNB reserves the right, in its sole determination, to cease any facilitation of any collection and remittance of Occupancy Tax (regardless of method used or to be used in the future) for any reason or no reason at all, provided that it will give Hosts reasonable notice in any jurisdiction in which TIPBNB determines to cease any such facilitation.

12.                        Damage to Accommodations and Security Deposits

At the conclusion of the rental agreement, you as a Guest are responsible for ensuring the Accommodation is 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 whom you invite to, or otherwise provide access to, the Accommodation. In the event that a Host claims otherwise and provides evidence of damage ("Damage Claim"), including but not limited to photographs, you agree to pay the cost of replacing the damaged items with equivalent items.

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. TIPBNB  will use commercially reasonable efforts to address Hosts' requests and claims related to Security Deposits, but TIPBNB is not responsible for administering or accepting any Damage Claims by Hosts related to Security Deposits, and disclaims any and all liability in this regard.

If a Host makes a Damage Claim for a confirmed booking of an Accommodation, you as a Guest will be notified of any Damage Claim and given forty-eight (48) hours to respond. Thereafter, TIPBNB will collect any such costs from you and/or against the Security Deposit. TIPBNB also reserves the right to otherwise collect payment from you and pursue any avenues available to  TIPBNB in this regard in situations in which you have been determined, in TIPBNB 's sole discretion, to have damaged any Accommodation.

Both Guests and Hosts agree to cooperate with and assist TIPBNB in good faith. Both Guests and Hosts agree to provide TIPBNB with such information and take such actions as may be reasonably requested by TIPBNB, in connection with any Damage Claims or other 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 TIPBNB or a representative of TIPBNB regarding use or abuse of the Site, Application or the Services. If you are a Guest, upon TIPBNB '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 TIPBNB or a third party selected by TIPBNB or its insurer, with respect to losses for which the Host is requesting payment from TIPBNB.

If you are a Guest, you understand and agree that TIPBNB may 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 or to an Accommodation or any personal or other property located at an Accommodation. You agree to cooperate with and assist TIPBNB in good faith, and to provide TIPBNB with such information as may be reasonably requested by TIPBNB, 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 TIPBNB may reasonably request to assist TIPBNB in accomplishing the foregoing.

Security Deposits, if required by a Host, may be applied to any fees due from a Guest overstaying at a Listing without the Host's consent.

13.                        Overstaying without the Host's Consent

Guests agree that a confirmed booking is merely a license granted by the Host to the Guest to enter and use the Listing for the limited duration of the confirmed booking and in accordance with the Guest's agreement with the Host. Guests further agree to leave the Accommodation no later than the checkout time that the Host specifies in the Listing or such other time as mutually agreed upon between the Host and Guest. If a Guest stays past the agreed upon checkout time without the Host's consent, they no longer have a license to stay in the Listing and the Host is entitled to take any and all appropriate and legal actions required to make the Guest leave. In addition, Guests agree that the Host can charge the Guest, for each 24-hour period that the Guest stays over the agreed period without the Host's consent, an additional nightly fee of two times the average nightly Accommodation Fee originally paid by the Guest to cover the inconvenience suffered by the Host, plus all applicable Service Fees, Taxes, and any legal expenses incurred by the Host to make the Guest leave (collectively, "Additional Sums"). TIPBNB will collect Additional Sums from Guests.

26.                        Assignment

You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without TIPBNB 's prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms, without such consent, will be null and of no effect. TIPBNB may assign or transfer these Terms, at its sole discretion, without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted assigns.

27.                        Notices

Any notices or other communications permitted or required hereunder, including those regarding modifications to these Terms, will be in writing and given by TIPBNB (i) via email (in each case to the address that you provide) or (ii) by posting to the Site or via the Application. For notices made by e-mail, the date of receipt will be deemed the date on which such notice is transmitted.

28.                        Controlling Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and your use of the Services will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York 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 New York, New York 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.

29.                        Dispute Resolution

If you reside in the United States, you and TIPBNB 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, Application or Collective Content (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 TIPBNB are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action lawsuit, class-wide arbitration, private attorney-general action, or any other representative proceeding. Further, unless both you and TIPBNB 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. This agreement to arbitrate evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision. The arbitration will be administered by an arbitration agency of TIPBNB’s choosing. 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. The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the arbitration agency will appoint an arbitrator in accordance with their own rules.

Arbitration Location and Procedure. Unless you and TIPBNB e 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 TIPBNB 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 arbitration agency’s rules. Subject to those 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 agency’s 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. TIPBNB 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 filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the agency’s rules. However, if your claim for damages does not exceed $75,000, TIPBNB 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 TIPBNB 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 (including by email) within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the "Last Updated" date above or in the date of TIPBNB '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 TIPBNB 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).

30.                        General

The failure of TIPBNB 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 TIPBNB. 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.

31.                        Third party beneficiary

These Terms do not and are not intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties.
