be viewable by other users of the Services and through third-party websites. As such,
any Contributions you transmit may be treated as non-confidential and nonproprietary.
When you create or make available any Contributions, you thereby

The creation, distribution, transmission, public display, or performance, and the

and other users of the Services to use your Contributions in any manner
contemplated by the Services and these Legal Terms.
You have the written consent, release, and/or permission of each and every

Understand Your Legal Responsibilities.

For instance, certain property owners and lease agreements, as well as homeowner and condominium association guidelines, may impose restrictions or prohibitions on subletting, short-term rentals, or extended stays.
Some municipalities have zoning ordinances or other regulations that limit the short-term rental of residential properties. Specific jurisdictions may necessitate Hosts to register, obtain permits, or secure licenses for specific Host Services, such as short-term rentals, extended stays, food preparation, alcohol service for sale, tour guiding, or vehicle operation. In certain locations, the Host Services you intend to provide might be entirely prohibited. Some areas may mandate the registration of Guests staying at your Accommodation. Additionally, certain jurisdictions have legislation that grants tenancy rights to Guests and imposes additional responsibilities on Hosts.
For example, certain places have laws governing landlord-tenant relationships, rent control, and eviction procedures that may apply to longer-term stays. Familiarize yourself with your local regulations to determine the relevant guidelines for the Host Services you plan to offer.
The information we provide regarding legal requirements serves purely as informational guidance, and it is essential that you independently verify your obligations.
You are responsible for managing and handling the personal data of Guests and other individuals in accordance with applicable privacy laws and these Terms, including our Host Privacy Standards. If you have inquiries concerning the application of local laws, it is advisable to seek legal counsel.

- GOVERNING LAW
These Legal Terms are governed by and interpreted following the laws of the United
Kingdom, and the use of the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the
International Sales of Goods is expressly excluded. If your habitual residence is in
the EU, and you are a consumer, you additionally possess the protection provided to
you by obligatory provisions of the law in your country to residence. Likkletek Limited

- DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Informal Negotiations
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim
related to these Legal Terms (each a ‘Dispute’ and collectively, the ‘Disputes’) brought
by either you or us (individually, a ‘Party’ and collectively, the ‘Parties’), the Parties
agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly
provided below) informally for at least ten (10) days before initiating arbitration. Such
informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other
Party.
Binding Arbitration
Any dispute arising from the relationships between the Parties to these Legal Terms
shall be determined by one arbitrator who will be chosen in accordance with the
Arbitration and Internal Rules of the European Court of Arbitration being part of the
European Centre of Arbitration having its seat in Strasbourg, and which are in force
at the time the application for arbitration is filed, and of which adoption of this clause
constitutes acceptance. The seat of arbitration shall be London, United Kingdom. The
language of the proceedings shall be English. Applicable rules of substantive law
shall be the law of the United Kingdom.
Restrictions
The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the
Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be
joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to
be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilise class action procedures; and (c)
there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported
representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions
concerning informal negotiations binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to
enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights
of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy,
invasion of privacy, or unauthorised use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this
provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to
arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or
unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction
within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the
personal jurisdiction of that court.
