Service StayList provides an on-line platform that helps connect hosts who own or manage accommodations, attractions, theaters, events or restaurants (“Listings”) and guests seeking to rent or inquire about such Listings (collectively, with all other services provided through the Site, the “Services”). Hosts with a StayList Account (“Hosts”) may list on the Service and Guests with a StayList Account may book Listings (“Guest”), in accordance with this Agreement. “User” means any user of the Site or Service, and may be a Guest or a Host. If you are a Host, the provisions regarding Hosts apply to you. If you are a Guest, the provisions regarding Guests apply to you. If you are a User, the provisions regarding Users apply to you.
Listings Hosts may create Listings by following the instructions on the Site and providing certain information about the Host’s Listing (e.g., the location, capacity, size, features, availability, pricing, and rules). Listings will be made publicly available via the Services and Guests may book Listings, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. We may include a feature which enables the Host to also include certain requirements which must be met by the Guests in order for the Guest to book the Listing (e.g., must have a profile photo or phone number) when the Host creates a Listing. A Host may also include any terms and conditions that the Host wants the Guest to agree to in order to book the Listing (“Listing Terms”). By submitting a Booking Request (as described below) for a Listing, the Guest agrees to the Listing Terms (defined below). THE LISTING TERMS ARE SOLELY BETWEEN THE HOST AND THE GUEST, AND STAYLIST IS NOT A PARTY THERETO. All Listings are deemed User Content and therefore the provisions in Section 4.1 and the Acceptable Use Policy apply to Listings. StayList reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, to remove any Listing for any reason (including but not limited to Listings that StayList, in its sole discretion, considers to be in violation of these Terms or that StayList considers objectionable for any reason).
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES REGARDING THE LISTINGS, RENTALS, REVIEWS, HOSTS, GUESTS, OR OTHER USERS. LISTINGS, RENTALS, AND REVIEWS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS”.

IN NO EVENT SHALL WE (OR OUR SUPPLIERS) BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY LOSSES OR DAMAGES WHATSOEVER ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE RENTALS, LISTINGS, OR REVIEWS, OR YOUR INTERACTION WITH ANY HOSTS, GUESTS, OR OTHER USERS. STAYLIST’S SOLE ROLE IS TO FACILITATE THE AVAILABILITY OF THE SITE AND SERVICES. THE HOST, AND NOT STAYLIST, IS THE OWNER OF THE RENTAL IN THE LISTING. STAYLIST IS NOT A REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT, CONTRACTING AGENT, OR INSURER OF ANY HOSTS OR GUEST.

Payment Terms Booking Procedures
Hosts set the price for their Listings, which shall include the price for renting the Rental and may include (at the Host’s discretion) local, state, federal or other taxes (“Taxes”) (e.g., sales taxes, value added taxes, and goods and services taxes) and other charges (e.g., cleaning charges) (collectively, the “Full Price”). Hosts also provide a floor price they will accept for their Listings (“Minimum Acceptable Price”) and attributes for discounting their Listings (e.g., high-demand periods, number of days before trip start date when discounting is activated, etc.) (“Discount Attributes”), which StayList uses to calculate the “StayList Discounted Price” for the Listings. In addition, Hosts can specify discounts (e.g. 15% off of rental rates for trips in the month of August), which are also used by StayList to calculate the “StayList Discounted Price” for the Listings. StayList displays either the Full Price or, if applicable, StayList Discounted Price, to Guests, who can book that listing at such price. Hosts may automatically have StayList accept/reject Booking Requests (“Automatic Acceptance”) or manually accept/reject Booking Request (“Manual Acceptance”). “Booked Listing” means a Booking Request from a Guest that has been accepted by or on behalf of a Host as described below. The ” Expected Price” is the lower of Full Price or StayList Discounted Price for a Listing.
If a Host elects Manual Acceptance, the following applies: If a Guest submits a Booking Request, StayList will provide the Host notice of the Booking Request and the details of the Booking Request. The Host will then be required to either reject the Booking Request or accept the Booking Request within 24 hours of such notice; otherwise the Booking Request will be automatically rejected. When a Booking Request is accepted, the cancellation policy provided by the Host in the Listing will apply.
If a Host elects Automatic Acceptance, the following applies: If a Guest submits a Booking Request, StayList will automatically accept the Booking Request on behalf of the Host. When a Booking Request is accepted, the cancellation policy provided by the Host in the Listing will apply. Payment Terms for Guests The following terms apply to Guests: If your Booking Request is accepted, you agree to pay StayList for the Booking Price plus a Guest Service Fee (defined below).If and when you make a Booking Request, StayList will (i) obtain a pre-authorization via your credit card for the Booking Price and a guest service fee or (ii) charge your credit card a nominal amount, not to exceed one dollar ($1). If and when your Booking Request is accepted, StayList will collect the Booking Price and a guest service fee from your credit card. If your Booking Request is rejected, any amounts collected by StayList for the Booking Request will be refunded to your credit card and any pre-authorization of such credit card will be released. If a Host’s cancellation policy applies to your Booked Listing (as described above), StayList will use commercially reasonable efforts to implement that cancellation policy. If you are directed to StayList’s third party payment processor, you may be subject to terms and conditions governing use of that third party’s service and that third party’s personal information collection practices. Please review such terms and conditions and privacy policy before using the Services. You hereby authorize StayList or its third party on-line payment processor to obtaining a pre-authorization and/or charge your credit card as described above. Payment Terms for Hosts The following terms apply to Hosts: For each Booked Listing, the Host will be remitted the Expected Price for the Booked Listing minus a Host Service Fee (defined below). StayList will remit you the payment (i) in accordance with your applicable cancellation policy for Booking Requests (e.g., 100% remitted 2-3 business days after transaction). All payment will be in US dollars. All Service Fees are earned fees at the time of payment and are NON-REFENDABLE. Service Fees are exclusive of all Taxes and you are responsible for calculation, collection, and payment of all Taxes that apply to your transaction. You hereby authorize StayList to deduct Service Fees as described above. StayList currently does not charge a fee for creating Listings; however, StayList reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to charge a Listing fee in the future and will provide notice thereof on its Site prior to such fee taking effect. Service Fee
In consideration for providing the Services, StayList collects service fees from Hosts and Guests (“Service Fees”). Service Fees are made up of two components: (i) Guest Service Fees and (ii) Host Service Fees. Guest Service Fees is up to 3% of the non-tax portion of the Expected Price. Host Service Fees is up to 2.99% + $0.30 USD of the Expected Price for the credit card processing and up to 3.5% + $0.30 USD of the Expected Price for American Express processing. Except as otherwise provided herein, Service Fees are earned fees at the time of payment and are NON-REFUNDABLE.
Security Deposits
Hosts may choose to include a security deposit requirement in their Listings (“Security Deposits”), which is in addition to the Booking Price. Guests are responsible for leaving the Rental in the condition it was in when the Guest arrived or in the condition in keeping with the terms and conditions set forth in the Host’s Listing Terms. Guests are responsible for the Guest’s own acts and omissions and the acts and omissions of any individuals who the Guest invites to, or otherwise provides access to, the Rental. If a Security Deposit is required, then StayList will obtain a pre-authorization via the Guest’s credit card for the Security Deposit prior to the Guest’s check-in date for the Rental. If a Host claims damage and provides StayList evidence of the damage and the damage amount (“Damage Amount”) through the Service within 48 hours of the Guest check out date, StayList will notify the Guest through the Service and the Guest will have 48 hours after such notice to respond. If the Guest does not respond, StayList will collect the Damage Amount up to the Security Deposit amount from the Guest’s credit card, and remit the same to the Host. If the Guest responds and provides StayList evidence to the contrary, the both the Guest and Host agree to cooperate with StayList in good faith to resolve the complaint. If the parties are unable to resolve the complaint within 2 business days thereafter, then StayList in its sole discretion may determine the Damage Amount, if any, and collect the Damage Amount up to the Security Deposit amount from the Guest’s credit card, and remit the same to the Host. Both the Host and the Guest agree that any such determination by StayList is binding. The Host and the Guest agree that any dispute regarding the Damage Amount is solely between the Host and Guest and each hereby releases, holds harmless, and indemnifies StayList therefrom. Except as set forth above, StayList is not responsible for any claims by Hosts related to damage to the Rental, and disclaims any and all liability in this regard . If you are a Guest, you hereby authorize StayList or its third party on-line payment processor to obtaining a pre-authorization and/or charge your credit card as described above.
Double Bookings
It is the Host’s sole and absolute responsibility to ensure that there are not multiple bookings on the Host’s Listings (e.g., a booking is made for the Listing outside of the StayList Service and another booking is made for the Listing through the StayList Service). If a Host makes a reservation for a Listing outside of the StayList Service, the Host will immediately update the Listing with that information in the StayList Service to accurately reflect this reservation. If a Host fails to immediately update the Listing as described above, and a Guest makes a Booking Request that results in a Booked Listing (” Double Booking”), the Host must notify the Guest and StayList at [email protected] of the Double Booking within 48 hours and no later than 48 hours before the Guest’s check-in date. If the Host cancels the Guest’s Booked Listing, then the Host will either (i) provide the Guest an alternate Rental Property which is acceptable to the Guest or (ii) cover the cost for the Guest to book an alternate similar Rental Property on the StayList Service (as selected by StayList in its sole discretion), or if no such alternate is available on the StayList Service, an alternate Rental Property elsewhere which is acceptable to the Guest. Both the Host and the Guest agree that any such selection by StayList is binding. Except as set forth above, StayList is not responsible for any claims by Guests related to damages caused by Double Bookings, and disclaims any and all liability in this regard. Guest hereby releases, indemnifies, and holds harmless StayList from and against any and all liability for damages of any kind resulting from any such Double Booking. Host, too, releases, indemnifies, and holds harmless StayList from and against any and all liability for damages of any kind resulting from any such Double Booking and agrees to pay any and all judgments or settlement amounts as well as any and all costs of StayList’s defense, including but not limited to court costs and attorney fees.

Dispute Resolution PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
Except for either party’s claims of infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret, any and all disputes between you and StayList arising under or related in any way to this Agreement, must be resolved through binding arbitration as described in this section. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be interpreted broadly. It includes, but is not limited to, all claims and disputes relating to your use of any of the StayList Site and Services.
YOU AGREE THAT BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND STAYLIST ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU AND STAYLIST AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. ANY ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED.
The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this section. Each party shall choose an arbitrator and the two arbitrators shall choose a third arbitrator. The arbitration, including any and all hearings, shall take place in Knox County, Tennessee. For any claim where the total amount of the award sought is $10,000 or less, the AAA, you and StayList must abide by the following rules:
the arbitration shall be conducted solely based on written submissions; and
the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties.If the claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA rules, and the hearing (if any) must take place in Knox County, Tennessee (as must any other arbitration hearing hereunder).
The arbitrator’s ruling is binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. In the event this agreement to arbitrate is held unenforceable by a court, then the disputes that would otherwise have been arbitrated shall be exclusively brought in the state courts located in Knox County, Tennessee or federal courts located in Eastern District of Tennessee. Claims of infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret shall be exclusively brought in the state courts located in Knox County, Tennessee and federal courts located in Eastern District of Tennessee.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed solely and exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Tennessee, USA without giving effect to any law that would result in the application of the law of another jurisdiction.
Entire Agreement This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and us regarding the use of the Site and Services. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. The word “including” means including without limitation. The provisions of this Agreement are severable. If any provision of this Agreement is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will be unimpaired and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
