Section 2 discusses what Rental Pro Club does and does not do when providing the Site and Site Services and some of your responsibilities when using the Site to find or enter into a Service Contract with a User or Client, as detailed below.
The Site is a marketplace where Rental Property Owners, Service Providers and Buyers can identify each other and advertise, buy and sell real estate, and sell Services online. Subject to the Terms of Service, Rental Pro Club provides the Site Services to Users, including hosting and maintaining the Site, facilitating the formation of Contracts, and assisting Users in resolving disputes which may arise in connection with those Contracts.
Rental Pro Club merely makes the Site and Site Services available to enable RPOs, Service Providers and Buyers to find and transact directly with each other. Rental Pro Club does not introduce RPOs and Buyers. Through the Site and Site Services, RPO’s may be notified of Service Providers and Buyers that may be seeking to acquire their properties and RPOs may be notified of Service Providers that may offer the services they seek; at all times, however, Users are responsible for evaluating and determining the suitability of any Buyer or Service Provider on their own. If Users decide to enter into a Sales or Services Contract, the Contract is directly between the Users and Rental Pro Club is not a party to that Service Contract.
You acknowledge, agree, and understand that Rental Pro Club is not a party to the relationship or any dealings between Users. Without limitation, Users are solely responsible for (a) ensuring the accuracy and legality of any User Content, (b) determining the suitability of other Users for a Service Contract (such as any interviews, vetting, background checks, or similar actions), (c) negotiating, agreeing to, and executing any terms or conditions of Service Contracts. You further acknowledge, agree, and understand that you are solely responsible for assessing whether to enter into a Service Contract with another User and for verifying any information about another User, including Composite Information (defined below). Rental Pro Club does not make any representations about or guarantee the truth or accuracy of any RPO’s listings or other User Content on the Site; does not verify any feedback or information provided by RPO’s or Service Providers; and does not vet or otherwise perform background checks on Buyers or Clients. You acknowledge, agree, and understand that Rental Pro Club does not, in any way, supervise, direct, control, or evaluate Service Providers or their work and is not responsible for any Project, Project terms or Work Product. Rental Pro Club makes no representations about and does not guarantee, and you agree not to hold Rental Pro Club responsible for, the quality, safety, or legality of Service Providers; the qualifications, background, or identities of Users; the ability of Service Providers to deliver Services; the ability of RPOs to pay for Services; User Content, statements or posts made by Users; or the ability or willingness of a Buyer to actually complete a transaction.
RPO, Buyer and Service Providers acknowledges and agrees that Users are solely responsible (a) for all tax liability associated with payments received from RPO’s, Buyers and Service Providers through Rental Pro Club. In the event of an audit of Rental Pro Club, Users agrees to promptly cooperate with Rental Pro Club and provide copies of User’s tax returns and other documents as may be reasonably requested for purposes of such audit, including but not limited to records showing User is engaging in an independent business as represented to Rental Pro Club.
Section 3 discusses the relationship you may decide to enter into with another User, including Service Contracts between Users, as detailed below.
If a RPO and Service Provider decide to enter into a Service Contract, the Service Contract is a contractual relationship directly between the Client and User. Client and User have complete discretion both with regard to whether to enter into a Service Contract with each other and with regard to the terms of any Service Contract. You acknowledge, agree, and understand that Rental Pro Club is not a party to any Service Contracts, that the formation of a Service Contract between Users will not, under any circumstance, create an employment or other service relationship between Rental Pro Club and any User or a partnership or joint venture between Rental Pro Club and any User.
With respect to any Service Contract, Clients and Users may enter into any written agreements that they deem appropriate (e.g., confidentiality agreements, invention assignment agreements, assignment of rights, etc.) provided that any such agreements do not conflict with, narrow, or expand Rental Pro Club’s rights and obligations under the Terms of Service, including this Agreement..
Users may agree to any terms they deem appropriate with respect to confidentiality. If and to the extent that the Users do not articulate any different agreement, then they agree that this Section 3.3 (Confidentiality) applies.
To the extent a User provides Confidential Information to the other, the recipient will protect the secrecy of the discloser’s Confidential Information with the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information, but in no event with less than due care. On a User’s written request, the party that received Confidential Information will promptly destroy or return the disclosing party’s Confidential Information and any copies thereof contained in or on its premises, systems, or any other equipment otherwise under its control.
It is the intent of the Parties to this Agreement that Users who have entered into Service Contracts or disclosed or received Confidential Information to another User are third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement with respect to this Section 3 only.
Section 4 discusses what you agree to concerning listing, selling and buying property
The first service option is the process that occurs when you sign-up for a free RPO account. After agreeing to the full Electronic Consent and Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy request, you will enter your property details. You will then get matched with Lenders, Brokers, or Partners who may respond with conditional purchases offers posted back to your RPO Account. You will be able to see one purchase offer per month and see how many additional offers are waiting for your review if you become a monthly member.
"Listing(s)" means a description of a Property that the Seller lists for sale using the Services. When one creates a Listing, you will need to submit information to us about the Property, including without limitation, images, general property information and tenant and lease information. You hereby grant a license to Rental Pro Club, Inc. to use such listing information in order to operate the Services - please see the Section below entitled "Rights in Content Granted by You". It is important that such information be complete and accurate and we do not verify any such information or User Content you provide to us via the Services for your Listings. A Listing can also include requirements with which potential Buyers must comply in order to purchase the Property for sale in a Listing. We may provide Additional Property Information for Listings. You agree that you are responsible for all Listings you post and for keeping the Listings information current and up to date, including up to the date of sale of a Property included in a Listing. We reserve the right to reject a Listing for any reason in our sole and absolute discretion. We will notify you if we reject your Listing and we may give you an opportunity to amend your Listing into a form that we would publish.
"Additional Property Information" means information about the Properties included in Listings, including, without limitation, valuation estimates, inspections, pest reports, conditions, repairs, cost estimates, financial estimates, neighborhood information, photographs, lease verification, property management terms, title, permits and lien information, that we obtain from a variety of sources. This Additional Property Information is licensed to Users under the Section below entitled "Rights in Content Granted by Rental Pro Club" and our provision of the Additional Property Information to Users does not in any way mean that we have endorsed or are endorsing the Seller or Seller's Listing or the outcome of any purchase of a Property. You hereby authorize Rental Pro Club to act on your behalf, if applicable, to gather the Additional Property Information and you agree to grant Rental Pro Club any necessary authorization to do so. You acknowledge that the Additional Property Information made available via the Services is current as of the date that it was generated and Rental Pro Club makes no warranties that the Additional Property Information will be accurate or up to date on that date that Users access and view the Additional Property Information.

We may, on Seller's behalf, provide Additional Property Information to Buyers via the Services about a Seller's Listing.

Unless both you and Rental Pro Club expressly agree otherwise in writing, either of us may terminate this Agreement in our sole discretion, at any time, without explanation, upon written notice to the other, which will result in the termination of the other Terms of Service as well, except as otherwise provided herein. You may provide written notice to legalnotices@RentalProClub.com. In the event you properly terminate this Agreement, your right to use the Site and Site Services is automatically revoked, and your Account will be closed. Rental Pro Club is not a party to any Service Contract between Users. Consequently, User understands and acknowledges that termination of this Agreement (or attempt to terminate this Agreement) does not terminate or otherwise impact any Service Contract or Project entered into between Users. If you attempt to terminate this Agreement while having one or more open Projects, you agree (a) you hereby instruct Rental Pro Club to close any open contracts; (b) you will continue to be bound by this Agreement and the other Terms of Service until all such Projects have closed on the Site; (c) Rental Pro Club will continue to perform those Site Services necessary to complete any open Project or related transaction between you and another User; and (d) you will continue to be obligated to pay any amounts accrued but unpaid as of the date of termination or as of the closure of any open Service Contracts, whichever is later, to Rental Pro Club for any Site Services or such other amounts owed under the Terms of Service and to any Users for any User Services.
Without limiting Rental Pro Club’s other rights or remedies, we may, but are not obligated to, temporarily or indefinitely revoke access to the Site or Site Services, deny your registration, or permanently revoke your access to the Site and refuse to provide any or all Site Services to you if: (i) you breach the letter or spirit of any terms and conditions of this Agreement or any other provisions of the Terms of Service; (ii) we suspect or become aware that you have provided false or misleading information to us; or (iii) we believe, in our sole discretion, that your actions may cause legal liability for you, our Users, or Rental Pro Club or our Affiliates; may be contrary to the interests of the Site or the User community; or may involve illicit or illegal activity. If your Account is temporarily or permanently closed, you may not use the Site under the same Account or a different Account or re=register under a new Account without Rental Pro Club’s prior written consent. If you attempt to use the Site under a different Account, we reserve the right to reclaim available funds in that Account and/or use an available Payment Method to pay for any amounts owed by you to the extent permitted by applicable law.
You acknowledge and agree that the value, reputation, and goodwill of the Site depend on transparency of User’s Account status to all Users, including both yourself and other Users who have entered into Service Contracts with you. You therefore agree as follows: IF RENTAL PRO CLUB DECIDES TO TEMPORARILY OR PERMANENTLY CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNT, RENTAL PRO CLUB HAS THE RIGHT WHERE ALLOWED BY LAW BUT NOT THE OBLIGATION TO: (A) NOTIFY OTHER USERS THAT HAVE ENTERED INTO SERVICE CONTRACTS WITH YOU TO INFORM THEM OF YOUR CLOSED ACCOUNT STATUS, (B) PROVIDE THOSE USERS WITH A SUMMARY OF THE REASONS FOR YOUR ACCOUNT CLOSURE. YOU AGREE THAT RENTAL PRO CLUB WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ANY NOTICE THAT IT MAY PROVIDE TO ANY USER REGARDING CLOSED ACCOUNT STATUS OR THE REASON(S) FOR THE CLOSURE.
Except as otherwise required by law, if your Account is closed for any reason, you will no longer have access to data, messages, files, or other material you keep on the Site and that that any closure of your Account may involve deletion of any content stored in your Account for which Rental Pro Club will have no liability whatsoever. Rental Pro Club, in its sole discretion and as permitted or required by law, may retain some or all of your Account information.
After this Agreement terminates, the terms of this Agreement and the other Terms of Service that expressly or by their nature contemplate performance after this Agreement terminates or expires will survive and continue in full force and effect. For example, the provisions requiring arbitration, permitting audits, protecting intellectual property, requiring non-circumvention, indemnification, payment of fees, reimbursement and setting forth limitations of liability each, by their nature, contemplate performance or observance after this Agreement terminates. Without limiting any other provisions of the Terms of Service, the termination of this Agreement for any reason will not release you or Rental Pro Club from any obligations incurred prior to termination of this Agreement or that thereafter may accrue in respect of any act or omission prior to such termination.
Section 14 discusses your agreement with Rental Pro Club and our agreement with you about how we will resolve any disputes, including that we will both first try to resolve any dispute informally and, if you are in the United States, that we both agree to use arbitration instead of going to court or using a jury if we can’t resolve the dispute informally, as detailed below.
If a dispute arises between you and Rental Pro Club or our Affiliates, our goal is to resolve the dispute quickly and cost-effectively. Accordingly, unless you opt out as provided in Section 14.4.4 below, you, Rental Pro Club, and our Affiliates agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy that arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the other Terms of Service, your relationship with Rental Pro Club (including without limitation any claimed employment with Rental Pro Club or one of our Affiliates or successors), the termination of your relationship with Rental Pro Club, or the Site Services (each, a “Claim”) in accordance with this Section 14 (sometimes referred to as the “Arbitration Provision”).
Claims covered by this Arbitration Provision include, but are not limited to, all claims, disputes, or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Terms of Service, any Service Contract, escrow payments or agreements, any payments or monies you claim are due to you from Rental Pro Club or our Affiliates or successors, trade secrets, unfair competition, false advertising, consumer protection, privacy, compensation, classification, minimum wage, seating, expense reimbursement, overtime, breaks and rest periods, termination, discrimination, retaliation or harassment and claims arising under the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Civil Rights Act of 1964, Rehabilitation Act, Civil Rights Acts of 1866 and 1871, Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, Americans With Disabilities Act, Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Family Medical Leave Act, Fair Labor Standards Act, Employee Retirement Income Security Act (except for claims for employee benefits under any benefit plan sponsored by the Company and (a) covered by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 or (b) funded by insurance), Affordable Care Act, Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act, Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, Older Workers Benefits Protection Act of 1990, Occupational Safety and Health Act, Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, False Claims Act, state statutes or regulations addressing the same or similar subject matters, and all other federal or state legal claims arising out of or relating to your relationship with Rental Pro Club or the termination of that relationship.
Disputes between the parties that may not be subject to predispute arbitration agreement as provided by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Public Law 111-203) or as provided by an Act of Congress or lawful, enforceable Executive Order, are excluded from the coverage of this Agreement.
These Site Terms of Use, the other Terms of Service, and any Claim will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law provisions and excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG); provided, however, that any Claims made by any User located within the United States will be governed by the law of the state in which such User resides. However, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, this Arbitration Provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq.).
Before serving a demand for arbitration of a Claim, you and Rental Pro Club agree to first notify each other of the Claim. You agree to notify Rental Pro Club of the Claim at Attn: Legal, 441 Logue Ave., Mountain View, CA 94043 or by email to legalnotices@Rental Pro Club.com, and Rental Pro Club agrees to provide to you a notice at your email address on file (in each case, a “Notice”). You and Rental Pro Club then will seek informal voluntary resolution of the Claim. Any Notice must include pertinent account information, a brief description of the Claim, and contact information, so that you or Rental Pro Club, as applicable, may evaluate the Claim and attempt to informally resolve the Claim. Both you and Rental Pro Club will have 60 days from the date of the receipt of the Notice to informally resolve the other party’s Claim, which, if successful, will avoid the need for further action.
This Arbitration Provision applies to all Users except Users located outside of the United States and its territories.
In the unlikely event the parties are unable to resolve a Claim within 60 days of the receipt of the applicable Notice, you, Rental Pro Club, and our Affiliates agree to resolve the Claim by final and binding arbitration before an arbitrator from JAMS, instead of a court or jury. JAMS may be contacted at www.jamsadr.com.
This Arbitration Provision applies to any Claim (defined above) the parties may have and survives after your relationship with Rental Pro Club ends. Claims covered by this Arbitration Provision include, but are not limited to, all claims, disputes or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Terms of Service and the Rental Pro Club Payroll Agreement. This Arbitration Provision is intended to apply to the resolution of disputes that otherwise would be resolved in a court of law or before a forum other than arbitration. If for any reason JAMS will not administer the arbitration, either party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction with authority over the location where the arbitration will be conducted for appointment of a neutral arbitrator.
Except as otherwise provided herein, arbitration will be conducted in Santa Clara County, California in accordance with the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures’ Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures then in effect. Arbitration of disputes brought by a User that allege a violation of a consumer protection statute also will be subject to the JAMS Consumer Arbitration Minimum Standards, and such arbitrations will be conducted in the same state and within 25 miles of where the User is located. Claims by Users that allege employment or worker classification disputes or will be conducted in the state and within 25 miles of where User is located in accordance with the JAMS Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect. The applicable JAMS arbitration rules may be found at www.jamsadr.com or by searching online for “JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures,” “JAMS Employment Arbitration Rules,” or “JAMS Consumer Arbitration Minimum Standards.” Any dispute regarding the applicability of a particular set of JAMS rules shall be resolved exclusively by the arbitrator. Any party will have the right to appear at the arbitration by telephone and/or video rather than in person.
You and Rental Pro Club will follow the applicable JAMS rules with respect to arbitration fees. In any arbitration under the JAMS Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures, the User will pay JAMS arbitration fees only to the extent those fees are no greater than the filing or initial appearance fees applicable to court actions in the jurisdiction where the arbitration will be conducted, with Rental Pro Club to make up the difference, if any. In any arbitration under the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures’ Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures then in effect in which a User makes a claim under a consumer protection statute, the User will pay JAMS arbitration fees only to the extent those fees are no greater than the filing or initial appearance fees applicable to court actions in the jurisdiction where the arbitration will be conducted, or $250.00, whichever is less, with Rental Pro Club to make up the difference, if any. The arbitrator must follow applicable law and may award only those remedies that would have applied had the matter been heard in court. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s decision in any court having jurisdiction.
This Arbitration Provision does not apply to litigation between Rental Pro Club and you that is or was already pending in a state or federal court or arbitration before the expiration of the opt-out period set forth in Section 12.4.4, below. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no amendment to this Arbitration Provision will apply to any matter pending in an arbitration proceeding brought under this Section 14 unless all parties to that arbitration consent in writing to that amendment.
This Arbitration Provision also does not apply to claims for workers compensation, state disability insurance or unemployment insurance benefits.
Nothing in this Arbitration Provision prevents you from making a report to or filing a claim or charge with a government agency, including without limitation the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, U.S. Department of Labor, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, National Labor Relations Board, or Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs. Nothing in this Arbitration Provision prevents the investigation by a government agency of any report, claim or charge otherwise covered by this Arbitration Provision. This Arbitration Provision also does not prevent federal administrative agencies from adjudicating claims and awarding remedies based on those claims, even if the claims would otherwise be covered by this Arbitration Provision. Nothing in this Arbitration Provision prevents or excuses a party from satisfying any conditions precedent and/or exhausting administrative remedies under applicable law before bringing a claim in arbitration. Rental Pro Club will not retaliate against you for filing a claim with an administrative agency or for exercising rights (individually or in concert with others) under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act.
This Arbitration Provision is the full and complete agreement relating to the formal resolution of Claims. Except as otherwise provided in this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision covers, and the arbitrator shall have exclusive jurisdiction to decide, all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, enforcement, or application of this Arbitration Provision, including the enforceability, revocability, scope, or validity of the Arbitration Provision or any portion of the Arbitration Provision. All such matters shall be decided by an arbitrator and not by a court. The parties expressly agree that the arbitrator and not a court will decide any question of whether the parties agreed to arbitrate, including but not limited to any claim that all or part of this Arbitration Provision, this Agreement, or any other part of the Terms of Service is void or voidable.
In the event any portion of this Arbitration Provision is deemed unenforceable, the remainder of this Arbitration Provision will be enforceable. If any portion of the Class Action Waiver in subsection C, below, of this Arbitration Provision is deemed to be unenforceable, you and Rental Pro Club agree that this Arbitration Provision will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
12.4.3. CLASS AND COLLECTIVE WAIVER
Private attorney general representative actions under the California Labor Code are not arbitrable, not within the scope of this Arbitration Provision and may be maintained in a court of law. However, this Arbitration Provision affects your ability to participate in class or collective actions. Both you and Rental Pro Club agree to bring any dispute in arbitration on an individual basis only, and not on a class or collective basis on behalf of others. There will be no right or authority for any dispute to be brought, heard or arbitrated as a class or collective action, or as a member in any such class or collective proceeding (“Class Action Waiver”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the JAMS rules, disputes regarding the enforceability, revocability, scope, or validity or breach of the Class Action Waiver may be resolved only by a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. In any case in which (1) the dispute is filed as a class or collective action and (2) there is a final judicial determination that all or part of the Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, the class or collective action to that extent must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction, but the portion of the Class Action Waiver that is enforceable shall be enforced in arbitration. You and Rental Pro Club agree that you will not be retaliated against, disciplined or threatened with discipline as a result of your filing or participating in a class or collective action in any forum. However, Rental Pro Club may lawfully seek enforcement of this Arbitration Provision and the Class Action Waiver under the Federal Arbitration Act and seek dismissal of such class or collective actions or claims.
You may opt out of the Arbitration Provision contained in this Section 14 by notifying Rental Pro Club in writing within 30 days of the date you first registered for the Site. To opt out, you must send a written notification to Rental Pro Club at Attn: Legal, 1511 Route 22 Ste 152, Brewster, NY 10509-4020 that includes (a) your Account username, (b) your name, (c) your address, (d) your telephone number, (e) your email address, and (f) a statement indicating that you wish to opt out of the Arbitration Provision. Alternatively, you may send this written notification to legalnotices@RentalProClub.com. Opting out of this Arbitration Provision will not affect any other terms of this Agreement.
If you do not opt out as provided in this Section 12.4.4, continuing your relationship with Rental Pro Club constitutes mutual acceptance of the terms of this Arbitration Provision by you and Rental Pro Club. You have the right to consult with counsel of your choice concerning this Agreement and the Arbitration Provision.
This Arbitration Provision replaces all prior agreements regarding the arbitration of disputes and is the full and complete agreement relating to the formal resolution of disputes covered by this Arbitration Provision. In the event any portion of this Arbitration Provision is deemed unenforceable, the remainder of this Arbitration Provision will be enforceable. If any portion of the Class Action Waiver in Section 12.4.3, above, is deemed to be unenforceable, you and Rental Pro Club agree that this Arbitration Provision will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Section 13 discusses additional terms of the agreement between you and Rental Pro Club, including that the Terms of Service contain our full agreement, how the agreement will be interpreted and applied, and your agreement not to access the Site from certain locations, as detailed below.
This Agreement, together with the other Terms of Service, sets forth the entire agreement and understanding between you and Rental Pro Club relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and cancels and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous discussions, agreements, representations, warranties, and other communications between you and us, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof and thereof. The section headings in the Terms of Service are included for ease of reference only and have no binding effect. Even though Rental Pro Club drafted the Terms of Service, you represent that you had ample time to review and decide whether to agree to the Terms of Service. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation of the Terms of Service arises, no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring you or Rental Pro Club because of the authorship of any provision of the Terms of Service.
No modification or amendment to the Terms of Service will be binding upon Rental Pro Club unless in a written instrument signed by a duly authorized representative of Rental Pro Club or posted on the Site by Rental Pro Club. Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. We do not guarantee we will take action against all breaches of this User Agreement.
User may not assign the Terms of Service, or any of its rights or obligations hereunder, without Rental Pro Club’s prior written consent in the form of a written instrument signed by a duly authorized representative of Rental Pro Club. Rental Pro Club may freely assign this Agreement and the other Terms of Service without User’s consent. Any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of this subsection will be null and void. Subject to the foregoing restrictions, the Terms of Service are binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the successors, heirs, and permitted assigns of the parties.
If and to the extent any provision of this Agreement or the other Terms of Service is held illegal, invalid, or unenforceable in whole or in part under applicable law, such provision or such portion thereof will be ineffective as to the jurisdiction in which it is illegal, invalid, or unenforceable to the extent of its illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability and will be deemed modified to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law so as to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties. The illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability of such provision in that jurisdiction will not in any way affect the legality, validity, or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction or of any other provision in any jurisdiction.
The parties to this Agreement will not be responsible for the failure to perform or any delay in performance of any obligation hereunder for a reasonable period due to labor disturbances, accidents, fires, floods, telecommunications or Internet failures, strikes, wars, riots, rebellions, blockades, acts of government, governmental requirements and regulations or restrictions imposed by law or any other similar conditions beyond the reasonable control of such party.
The English language version of the Terms of Service will be controlling in all respects and will prevail in case of any inconsistencies with translated versions, if any. The Site is controlled and operated from our facilities in the United States.
Rental Pro Club makes no representations that the Site is appropriate or available for use outside of the United States. Those who access or use the Site from other jurisdictions do so at their own risk and are entirely responsible for compliance with all applicable foreign, United States, state, and local laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, export and import regulations, including the Export Administration Regulations maintained by the United States Department of Commerce and the sanctions programs maintained by the Department of the Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control. You must not directly or indirectly sell, export, re-export, transfer, divert, or otherwise dispose of any software or service to any end user without obtaining any and all required authorizations from the appropriate government authorities. You also warrant that you are not prohibited from receiving U.S. origin products, including services or software.
In order to access or use the Site or Site Services, you must and hereby represent that you are not: (a) a citizen or resident of a geographic area in which access to or use of the Site or Site Services is prohibited by applicable law, decree, regulation, treaty, or administrative act; (b) a citizen or resident of, or located in, a geographic area that is subject to U.S. or other sovereign country sanctions or embargoes; or (c) an individual, or an individual employed by or associated with an entity, identified on the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Persons or Entity List, the U.S. Department of Treasury Specially Designated Nationals or Blocked Persons Lists, or the U.S. Department of State Debarred Parties List or otherwise ineligible to receive items subject to U.S. export control laws and regulations or other economic sanction rules of any sovereign nation. You agree that if your country of residence or other circumstances change such that the above representations are no longer accurate, that you will immediately cease using the Site and Site Services and your license to use the Site or Site Services will be immediately revoked.
In connection with the Site Terms of Use, you may be entitled to receive certain records from Rental Pro Club or our Affiliates, such as contracts, notices, and communications, in writing. To facilitate your use of the Site and the Site Services, you give us permission to provide these records to you electronically instead of in paper form.

Social Networking Services
You may register for an account directly with our Site, or through a social networking service. If you register with a social networking service (or later link your account to one), we will collect certain information about you from that social networking service, and what we collect depends on your privacy settings with that social networking service. The Service may also allow you to “like” or share content with social networking services.
You may register to join the Service directly via the Service or by logging into your account with a third party social networking service (“SNS”) via our Service (e.g., Facebook, Github and other third party services that let you sign in using your existing credentials with those services). If you choose to register via an SNS, or to later link your account with the Service to your account with an SNS, we will use the Personal Information you have provided to the SNS (such as your name, email address, gender and other information you make publicly available via the SNS) to create your account. Note that the information we collect from and through an SNS may depend on the privacy settings you have set with the SNS and the permissions you grant to us in connection with linking your account with the Service to your account with an SNS. Other than what we may share with the SNS as described below, the Personal Information an SNS has about you is obtained by the SNS independent of our Service, and Rental Pro Club is not responsible for it.
The Rental Pro Club Service also may permit additional interactions between it and a third party website, service, or other content provider, such as enabling you to “like” or share content to a third party SNS. If you choose to “like” or share content, or to otherwise share information from or via our Service with a third party site or service, that information may be publicly displayed, and the third party may have access to information about you and your use of our Service (and we may have access to information about you from that third party). These features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on our site, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Your interactions with third parties through an SNS or similar features are governed by the respective privacy policies of those third parties.
You represent that you are entitled to use your SNS account for the purposes described herein without breach by you of any of the terms and conditions that govern the SNS, and without obligating Rental Pro Club to pay any fees or making Rental Pro Club subject to any usage limitations imposed by such SNS. You can disable the link between your Rental Pro Club account and your SNS account at any time though the “Settings” section of our Service. Please note that your relationship with any SNS is governed solely by your agreement(s) with such SNS. If your SNS account terminates, then functions enabled through the link between your Rental Pro Club account and your SNS account will terminate as well.
We use information collected through the Service to provide and improve the Service, process your requests, prevent fraud, provide you with information and advertising that may interest you, comply with the law, and as otherwise permitted with your consent.

Rental Pro Club takes commercially reasonable steps to help protect and secure the information it collects and stores about Rental Pro Club Users. All access to the Site is encrypted using industry-standard transport layer security technology (“TLS”). When you enter sensitive information (such as tax identification number), we encrypt the transmission of that information using secure socket layer technology (“SSL”). We also use HTTP strict transport security to add an additional layer of protection for our Rental Pro Club Users. But remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Thus, while we strive to protect your Personal Information, Rental Pro Club cannot ensure and does not warrant the security of any information you transmit to us.
Because we are a U.S. company, we process and store your information in the United States and our service providers may process and store it elsewhere.
Rental Pro Club is a U.S. company. If you are located outside the United States and choose to provide information to us, Rental Pro Club transfers Personal Information to the United States for processing, and our service providers may process Personal Information in the United States and elsewhere. These countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the information. When we transfer your information to the United States, we will protect it as described in this Privacy Policy.
When we transfer Personal Information from territories in the EEA or with similar laws to our affiliates or service providers in the United States and elsewhere outside the EEA, we rely on approved data transfer mechanisms, including standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission and the Privacy Shield, as described below. You may request a copy of the standard contractual clauses relevant to your Personal Information, if any, using the contact information below.
As a business subject to the investigatory and enforcement authority of the United States Federal Trade Commission, Rental Pro Club has certified that its U.S. operations adhere to the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Frameworks (“Privacy Shield”) with respect to the Personal Information that Rental Pro Club receives in reliance on the Privacy Shield. Our Privacy Shield certification is available at https://www.privacyshield.gov/list. To learn more about the Privacy Shield program, please visit https://www.privacyshield.gov.
When Rental Pro Club receives Personal Information under the Privacy Shield and then transfers it to a third party service provider acting as an agent on Rental Pro Club’s behalf, Rental Pro Club may have certain responsibility under the Privacy Shield if both (i) the agent processes the information in a manner inconsistent with the Privacy Shield and (ii) Rental Pro Club is responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
Covered European residents should contact Rental Pro Club at the contact information below regarding Rental Pro Club’s compliance with the Privacy Shield. Rental Pro Club will attempt to answer your questions and satisfy your concerns in a timely and complete manner as soon as possible. If, after discussing the matter with Rental Pro Club, your issue or complaint is not resolved, Rental Pro Club has agreed to participate in the Privacy Shield independent dispute resolution mechanisms listed below, free of charge to you. PLEASE CONTACT RENTAL PRO CLUB FIRST.
For other Personal Information Rental Pro Club receives under the Privacy Shield, Rental Pro Club has committed to refer unresolved privacy complaints under the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Principles to an independent dispute resolution mechanism, JAMS Privacy Shield Dispute Resolution, operated by JAMS. If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your complaint, or if your complaint is not satisfactorily addressed, please visit https://www.jamsadr.com/eu-us-privacy-shield for more information and to file a complaint.
If your complaint still is not resolved through these channels, under limited circumstances, an additional binding arbitration option may be available before a Privacy Shield panel, as described at privacyshield.gov. Every individual also has a right to lodge a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority.
Our Service contains links to other websites. If you choose to click on a third party link, you will be directed to that third party’s website. The fact that we link to a website is not an endorsement, authorization or representation of our affiliation with that third party, nor is it an endorsement of their privacy or information security policies or practices. We do not exercise control over third party websites. These other websites may place their own cookies or other files on your computer, collect data or solicit Personal Information from you. We encourage you to read the privacy policies or statements of the other websites you visit.
The profile you create on our Site will be publicly accessible unless otherwise indicated. You may change the privacy settings of your profile through your account portal.
Phishing websites imitate legitimate websites in order to obtain personal or financial information. Identity theft and the practice currently known as “phishing” are of great concern to Rental Pro Club. For more information about phishing, visit the website of the Federal Trade Commission at http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0003-phishing. In addition, if you believe you have received an email or had a similar interaction with a third party pretending to be Rental Pro Club, please report it at legal@rentalproclub.com.
We allow you to choose whether we share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
Pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1798.83, California residents who provide us with personal information in obtaining products or services for personal, family, or household use are entitled to request and obtain from us, one time per calendar year, information about the customer information we shared, if any, with other businesses for their own direct marketing uses. Alternatively, the law provides that a company may comply, as Rental Pro Club does, by disclosing in its privacy policy that it provides consumers choice (opt-in or opt-out) regarding sharing Personal Information with third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes, and information on how to exercise that choice. As stated above in this Privacy Policy, Rental Pro Club provides you choice prior to sharing your personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes. If you do not opt-in or if you choose to opt-out at the time Rental Pro Club offers that choice, Rental Pro Club does not share your information with that identified third party for its direct marketing purposes.
If you are a California resident and you have questions about our practices with respect to sharing information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes and your ability to exercise choice, please contact us using the contact information below.
You must put the statement “Your California Privacy Rights” in the subject field of your email or include it in your writing if you choose to write to us at the designated mailing address. You must include your name, street address, city, state, and ZIP code. We will respond to you at your mailing address or, at our option, your email address. We are not responsible for notices that are not labeled or sent properly, or do not have complete information.
We may change this Privacy Policy. If we make material changes, we will provide notice.
Rental Pro Club may update this Privacy Policy at any time and any changes will be effective upon posting. In the event that there are material changes to the way we treat your Personal Information, we will display a notice through the Services prior to the change becoming effective. We may also notify you by email, in our discretion. However, we will use your Personal Information in a manner consistent with the Privacy Policy in effect at the time you submitted the information, unless you consent to the new or revised policy.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at legal@rentalproclub.com.
Effective September 26th, 2018
These API Terms of Use (the “API Terms”), dated as of 9/22/2018(the “Effective Date”), are made and entered into by and between Rental Pro Club Global Inc., a Delaware corporation and its affiliates (“Rental Pro Club” or “we”), and you (“Developer” or “you”). Rental Pro Club and Developer are sometimes referred to in the API Terms individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”. Rental Pro Club and Developer hereby agree as follows:
By registering a software application, website, or product you create or service that you offer (a “Developer Application”), you agree to be bound by the API Terms. You must read, agree to, and accept all of the terms and conditions contained in the API Terms in order to use the Rental Pro Club API. Additionally, you agree to and accept the Rental Pro Club Terms of Service, available at https://www.RentalProClub.com/legal/. If you disagree with any of the terms of the API Terms or the Rental Pro Club Terms of Service, Rental Pro Club does not grant you a license to use the Rental Pro Club API. If you are using the Rental Pro Club API on behalf of a company or any other entity, you represent and warrant that you have full legal authority to register a Developer Application on behalf of that entity and bind it to the API Terms and the Rental Pro Club Terms of Service. If you are not authorized, you may not accept the API Terms or register a Developer Application for someone else.
Capitalized terms not defined in the API Terms have the meanings given to them in the Rental Pro Club Terms of Service.
Developer wishes to use and access the Rental Pro Club API in connection with the development and distribution of a Developer Application and agrees to the additional requirements herein. Developer and Rental Pro Club hereby agree as follows:
At its discretion, Rental Pro Club may require or offer Certification for certain Applications. Certification will consist of confirmation by Rental Pro Club or a third party it designates that your Application’s technology complies with the API Terms and the Rental Pro Club Terms of Service. You will be responsible for all costs associated with certification and any modifications necessary to meet the certification requirements and you may not be permitted to access the Rental Pro Club API in certain cases until certification is complete. At Rental Pro Club’s discretion, future modifications of your Application or use or display of Rental Pro Club Content may be subject to re-certification. If Rental Pro Club requires certification, your failure to maintain certification is cause for immediate termination of the API Terms.
Except as provided in the API Terms, Developer may not copy or store any Rental Pro Club Content, or any information expressed by or representing Rental Pro Club Content (such as hashed or otherwise transformed data).
Developer will protect Rental Pro Club User Data in accordance with all applicable laws. Your network, operating system, and software of your web servers, databases, and computer systems (collectively “Systems”) must be properly configured to securely operate the Developer Application and Rental Pro Club User Data. The Developer Application must use reasonable security measures to protect any Rental Pro Club User Data and any elements or components of the Rental Pro Club API. You shall not architect, design, or select Systems in a manner to avoid these obligations. You must promptly report to Rental Pro Club at legal@RentalProClub.com any security deficiencies in, or intrusions into, your Systems that you discover to Rental Pro Club. You will work with Rental Pro Club to correct any security deficiency and disconnect any intrusions or intruders as soon as practicable upon discovery of any such deficiency or intrusion. In the event of any security deficiency or intrusion involving the Developer Application or Rental Pro Club User Data, you will make no public statements without prior written and express permission from Rental Pro Club in each instance, unless otherwise required by law.
Subject to the API Terms, Rental Pro Club may, in its sole discretion, make specific instances or versions of the Rental Pro Club API available to Developer for use in connection with Developer Applications. Rental Pro Club may terminate such access to the Rental Pro Club API, in whole or certain features, functions, or services thereof, for convenience, at any time. The Rental Pro Club API will be deemed to be a part of the Site Services as set forth in the Rental Pro Club Terms of Service.
Rental Pro Club may provide technical support, upgrades, or modifications of the Rental Pro Club API in Rental Pro Club’s sole discretion. Rental Pro Club may cease providing technical support, upgrades, or modifications of the Rental Pro Club API at any time and for any reason without notice or liability to Developer. Rental Pro Club may release new versions of the Rental Pro Club API and require Developer to use the new version of the Rental Pro Club API. Developer’s use of new releases or versions of the Rental Pro Club API will be acceptance of all modifications of the Rental Pro Club API.
Developer understands and acknowledges that Rental Pro Club may be independently creating applications, content, and other products or services that may be similar to or competitive with the Developer Application. Nothing in the API Terms will be construed as restricting or preventing Rental Pro Club from creating and fully exploiting any applications, content, and other products or services, without any obligation to Developer. This paragraph will survive the termination or expiration of the API Terms.
Developer agrees that the content of the Rental Pro Club API, and any Rental Pro Club Content that by its nature should reasonably be known to be confidential, is deemed to be confidential information of Rental Pro Club and Developer will maintain the same in strict confidence and not disclose the same to any third party (other than employees, agents and contractors of Developer for the sole purpose of providing services to Developer to complete work permitted hereunder) or use the same for any purpose other than its performance under the Agreement. To the extent that you retain any Rental Pro Club Content after the termination or expiration of the API Terms, this paragraph will survive the termination or expiration of the API Terms.
The provisions of the API Terms will control over any inconsistent provisions of the Rental Pro Club Terms of Service, and the Rental Pro Club Terms of Service, as modified and supplemented by the API Terms, will remain in full force and effect. Any “shrink wrap” or “click wrap” license agreement or any other terms and conditions associated with Developer’s Application is null and void, is not applicable hereunder, and is expressly excluded.
Rental Pro Club currently provides the Rental Pro Club API without charge. However, Rental Pro Club reserves the right, at Rental Pro Club’s sole discretion, to charge fees for future use of or access to the Rental Pro Club API. Developer may not charge any fee to Rental Pro Club users for the Developer’s Application without the express written permission or agreement of Rental Pro Club.

This policy describes how Rental Pro Club uses cookies on www.rentalproclub.com (the “Site”). We recommend that you also consult our Privacy Policy for additional information on how we collect and use information collected from visitors to the Site. This policy is effective 9/20/2018. Your continued use of the Site after that will signify your acceptance of this policy. We may modify this Agreement without notifying you, so please check back often for updates.
By using the Site, you agree that we can use the cookies described in this Cookie Policy. You can stop cookies by changing the settings in your browser (more information on how to do this is provided below).
Cookies are text files, containing small amounts of information, which are downloaded to your browsing device (such as a computer or smartphone) when you visit a website. Cookies can be recognized by the website that downloaded them — or other websites that use the same cookies. This helps websites know if the browsing device has visited them before.
Cookies do lots of different jobs, like helping us understand how the Site is being used, letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, and generally improving your browsing experience. Cookies can also help ensure marketing you see online is more relevant to you and your interests.
The type of cookies used on most websites can generally be put into one of six categories: Strictly Necessary, Performance, Functionality, Flash, Tailored Content and Targeting. In order to provide you with the best browsing experience, Upwork uses all of these categories on the Site. You can find out more about each cookie category in the sections below.
These cookies are essential, as they enable you to move around the Site and use its features, such as accessing secure areas. Without these cookies, some services you have asked for such as payment submission can’t be provided.
These cookies collect information about how you use the Site, for example which pages you go to most often and if you get error messages from certain pages. These cookies don’t gather information that identifies you. All information these cookies collect is anonymous and is only used to improve how the Site works.
These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language or the region you’re in). For instance, the Site uses functionality cookies to remember your language preference. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you’ve made to text size, font and other parts of pages that you can customize. They may also be used to provide services you’ve asked for such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. The information these cookies collect may be anonymous and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
We may, in certain circumstances, use Adobe Flash Player to deliver special content, such as video clips or animation. To improve your user experience, Local Shared Objects (commonly known as “Flash cookies”) are employed to provide functions such as remembering your settings and preferences. Flash cookies are stored on your device, but they are managed through an interface different from the one provided by your web browser. This means it is not possible to manage Flash cookies through your browser in the same way you would normally manage cookies. Instead, you can access your Flash management tools from Adobe’s website at http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html.
Tailored content cookies help the Site provide enhanced features and display content in a way that is relevant to you. These cookies help the Site determine what information to show you based on how you have used the Site previously. These cookies do not track your browsing activity on other websites.
These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign. They remember that you have visited a website and this information may be shared with other organizations such as advertisers. This means after you have been to the Site you may see some advertisements about our services elsewhere on the Internet.
The length of time a cookie will stay on your browsing device depends on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. Session cookies will only stay on your device until you stop browsing. Persistent cookies stay on your browsing device until they expire or are deleted.
First party cookies are cookies that belong to us, while third party cookies are cookies that another party places on your browsing device through our Site. For example, Facebook will place a cookie on your browsing device if you click on the Facebook link when browsing the Site.
The browser you are using to view the Site can enable, disable or delete cookies. To do this, follow the instructions provided by your browser (usually located within the “Help,” “Tools” or “Edit” facility). Please note that if you set your browser to disable cookies, you may not be able to access certain parts of the Site for example applying for a job or posting a job. Other parts of the Site may also not work properly. You can find out more information about how to change your browser cookie settings at www.allaboutcookies.org.
