These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement ("Agreement") between you and Playamoblados (as defined below) governing your access to and use of the Playamoblados website, including any subdomains thereof, and any other websites through which Playamoblados makes its services available (collectively, "Site"), our mobile, tablet and other smart device applications, and application program interfaces (collectively, "Application") and all associated services (collectively, "Playamoblados Services"). The Site, Application and Playamoblados Services together are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Playamoblados Platform”.

When these Terms mention “Playamoblados,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” it refers to the Playamoblados you are contracting with. Account as determined by either your express selection or by Playamoblados’s assessment of your residence using various data attributes associated with your Playamoblados Account.

Our collection and use of personal information in connection with your access to and use of the Playamoblados Platform is described in our Privacy Policy.

1. Scope of Playamoblados Services

1.1 The Playamoblados Platform is an online marketplace that enables registered users (“Members”) and certain third parties who offer services (Members and third parties who offer services are “Hosts” and the services they offer are “Host Services”) to publish such Host Services on the Playamoblados Platform (“Listings”) and to communicate and transact directly with Members that are seeking to book such Host Services (Members using Host Services are “Guests”). Host Services may include the offering of vacation or other properties for use ("Accommodations"), single or multi-day activities in various categories (“Experiences”), access to unique events and locations (“Events”), and a variety of other travel and non-travel related services.

1.2 As the provider of the Playamoblados Platform, Playamoblados does not own, create, sell, resell, provide, control, manage, offer, deliver, or supply any Listings or Host Services, nor is Playamoblados an organiser or retailer of travel packages. Hosts alone are responsible for their Listings and Host Services. When Members make or accept a booking, they are entering into a contract directly with each other. Playamoblados is not and does not become a party to or other participant in any contractual relationship between Members, nor is Playamoblados a real estate broker or insurer. Playamoblados is not acting as an agent in any capacity for any Member, except as specified in the Payments Terms.

1.3 While we may help facilitate the resolution of disputes, Playamoblados has no control over and does not guarantee (i) the existence, quality, safety, suitability, or legality of any Listings or Host Services, (ii) the truth or accuracy of any Listing descriptions, Ratings, Reviews, or other Member Content (as defined below), or (iii) the performance or conduct of any Member or third party. Playamoblados does not endorse any Member, Listing or Host Services. Any references to a Member being "verified" (or similar language) only indicate that the Member has completed a relevant verification or identification process and nothing else. Any such description is not an endorsement, certification or guarantee by Playamoblados about any Member, including of the Member's identity or background or whether the Member is trustworthy, safe or suitable. You should always exercise due diligence and care when deciding whether to stay in an Accommodation, participate in an Experience or Event or use other Host Services, accept a booking request from a Guest, or communicate and interact with other Members, whether online or in person. Verified Images (as defined below) are intended only to indicate a photographic representation of a Listing at the time the photograph was taken, and are therefore not an endorsement by Playamoblados of any Host or Listing.

1.4 If you choose to use the Playamoblados Platform as a Host or Co-Host (as defined below), your relationship with Playamoblados is limited to being an independent, third-party contractor, and not an employee, agent, joint venturer or partner of Playamoblados for any reason, and you act exclusively on your own behalf and for your own benefit, and not on behalf, or for the benefit, of Playamoblados. Playamoblados does not, and shall not be deemed to, direct or control you generally or in your performance under these Terms specifically, including in connection with your provision of the Host Services. You acknowledge and agree that you have complete discretion whether to list Host Services or otherwise engage in other business or employment activities.

1.5 To promote the Playamoblados Platform and to increase the exposure of Listings to potential Guests, Listings and other Member Content may be displayed on other websites, in applications, within emails, and in online and offline advertisements. To assist Members who speak different languages, Listings and other Member Content may be translated, in whole or in part, into other languages. Playamoblados cannot guarantee the accuracy or quality of such translations and Members are responsible for reviewing and verifying the accuracy of such translations. The Playamoblados Platform may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties for merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

1.6 The Playamoblados Platform may contain links to third-party websites or resources (“Third-Party Services”). Such Third-Party Services may be subject to different terms and conditions and privacy practices. Playamoblados is not responsible or liable for the availability or accuracy of such Third-Party Services, or the content, products, or services available from such Third-Party Services. Links to such Third-Party Services are not an endorsement by Playamoblados of such Third-Party Services.

1.7 Due to the nature of the Internet, Playamoblados cannot guarantee the continuous and uninterrupted availability and accessibility of the Playamoblados Platform. Playamoblados may restrict the availability of the Playamoblados Platform or certain areas or features thereof, if this is necessary in view of capacity limits, the security or integrity of our servers, or to carry out maintenance measures that ensure the proper or improved functioning of the Playamoblados Platform. Playamoblados may improve, enhance and modify the Playamoblados Platform and introduce new Playamoblados Services from time to time.

6.2 Any applicable Service Fees (including any applicable Taxes) will be displayed to a Host or Guest prior to publishing or booking a Listing. Playamoblados reserves the right to change the Service Fees at any time, and will provide Members adequate notice of any fee changes before they become effective.

6.3 You are responsible for paying any Service Fees that you owe to Playamoblados. The applicable Service Fees (including any applicable Taxes) are collected by Playamoblados Payments. Playamoblados Payments will deduct any Host Fees from the Listing Fee before remitting the payout to the Host. Any Guest Fees are included in the Total Fees collected by Playamoblados Payments. Except as otherwise provided on the Playamoblados Platform, Service Fees are non-refundable.

8.2 Booking Accommodations

8.2.1 You understand that a confirmed booking of an Accommodation (“Accommodation Booking”) is a limited license granted to you by the Host to enter, occupy and use the Accommodation for the duration of your stay, during which time the Host (only where and to the extent permitted by applicable law) retains the right to re-enter the Accommodation, in accordance with your agreement with the Host.

8.2.2 You 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 you and the Host. If you stay past the agreed upon checkout time without the Host's consent (“Overstay”), you no longer have a license to stay in the Accommodation and the Host is entitled to make you leave in a manner consistent with applicable law. In addition, you agree to pay, if requested by the Host, for each twenty-four (24) hour period (or any portion thereof) that you Overstay, an additional nightly fee of up to two (2) times the average nightly Listing Fee originally paid by you to cover the inconvenience suffered by the Host, plus all applicable Guest Fees, Taxes, and any legal expenses incurred by the Host to make you leave (collectively, "Overstay Fees"). Overstay Fees for late checkouts on the checkout date that do not impact upcoming bookings may be limited to the additional costs incurred by the Host as a result of such Overstay. If you Overstay at an Accommodation, you authorize Playamoblados (via Playamoblados Payments) to charge you to collect Overstay Fees. A Security Deposit, if required by a Host, may be applied to any Overstay Fees due for a Guest’s Overstay.

8.3 Booking Experiences, Events and other Host Services

8.3.1 You should carefully review the description of any Experience, Event or other Host Service you intend to book to ensure you (and any additional guests you are booking for) meet any minimum age, proficiency, fitness or other requirements which the Host has specified in their Listing. At your sole discretion you may want to inform the Host of any medical or physical conditions, or other circumstances that may impact your and any additional guest’s ability to participate in any Experience, Event or other Host Service. In addition, certain laws, like the minimum legal drinking age in the location of the Experience, Event or other Host Service, may also apply. You are responsible for identifying, understanding, and complying with all laws, rules and regulations that apply to your participation in an Experience, Event or other Host Service.

8.3.2 Before and during an Experience, Event or other Host Service you must at all times adhere to the Hosts’ instructions.

8.3.3 You may not bring any additional individuals to an Experience, Event or other Host Service unless such an individual was added by you as an additional guest during the booking process on the Playamoblados Platform.

8.4 Playamoblados Travel Credits

Playamoblados Travel Credits may be redeemed for eligible bookings via the Playamoblados Platform as specified in the terms and conditions provided with the Travel Credit. You may only redeem Playamoblados Travel Credits after the Playamoblados Travel Credits are reflected in your Playamoblados Account.

9. Booking Modifications, Cancellations and Refunds, Resolution Center

9.1 Hosts and Guests are responsible for any modifications to a booking that they make via the Playamoblados Platform or direct Playamoblados customer service to make ("Booking Modifications"), and agree to pay any additional Listing Fees, Host Fees or Guest Fees and/or Taxes associated with such Booking Modifications.

9.2 Guests can cancel a confirmed booking at any time pursuant to the Listing’s cancellation policy, and Playamoblados Payments will refund the amount of the Total Fees due to the Guest in accordance with such cancellation policy. Unless extenuating circumstances exist, any portion of the Total Fees due to the Host under the applicable cancellation policy will be remitted to the Host by Playamoblados Payments pursuant to the Payments Terms.

9.3 If a Host cancels a confirmed booking, the Guest will receive a full refund of the Total Fees for such booking within a commercially reasonable time of the cancellation. In some instances, Playamoblados may allow the Guest to apply the refund to a new booking, in which case Playamoblados Payments will credit the amount against the Guest’s subsequent booking at the Guest’s direction. Further, Playamoblados may publish an automated review on the Listing cancelled by the Host indicating that a booking was cancelled. In addition, Playamoblados may (i) keep the calendar for the Listing unavailable or blocked for the dates of the cancelled booking, and/or (ii) impose a cancellation fee, unless the Host has a valid reason for cancelling the booking pursuant to Playamoblados’s Extenuating Circumstances Policy or has legitimate concerns about the Guest’s behavior.

9.4 For Experiences, Events and other Host Services, if inclement weather creates an unsafe or uncomfortable scenario for Guests, Hosts may modify or cancel a Host Service. If there is a substantial change in the itinerary or the Host Service needs to be cancelled, Playamoblados will work with the Host and/or Guests to provide Guests an alternative date for the Host Service, an appropriate refund or a rebooking.

9.5 In certain circumstances, Playamoblados may decide, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary to cancel a confirmed booking and make appropriate refund and payout decisions. This may be for reasons set forth in Playamoblados's Extenuating Circumstances Policy or (i) where Playamoblados believes in good faith, while taking the legitimate interests of both parties into account, this is necessary to avoid significant harm to Playamoblados, other Members, third parties or property, or (ii) for any of the reasons set out in these Terms.

9.6 If a Guest suffers a Travel Issue pursuant to the Guest Refund Policy, Playamoblados may determine, in its sole discretion, to refund the Guest part or all of the Total Fees in accordance with the Guest Refund Policy.

9.7 If, as a Host, your Guest cancels a confirmed booking or Playamoblados decides that it is necessary to cancel a confirmed booking, and Playamoblados issues a refund to the Guest in accordance with the Guest Refund Policy, Extenuating Circumstances Policy, or other applicable cancellation policy, you agree that in the event you have already been paid, Playamoblados Payments will be entitled to recover the amount of any such refund from you, including by subtracting such refund amount out from any future Payouts due to you.

9.8 Except as otherwise set out in these Terms, Members may use the Resolution Center to send or request money for refunds, additional Host Services, Co-Host Services or Damage Claims related to bookings. You agree to pay all amounts sent through the Resolution Center in connection with your Playamoblados Account, and Playamoblados Payments will handle all such payments.

10. Ratings and Reviews

10.1 Within a certain time frame after completing a booking, Guests and Hosts can leave a public review (“Review”) and submit a star rating (“Rating”) about each other. Ratings or Reviews reflect the opinions of individual Members and do not reflect the opinion of Playamoblados. Ratings and Reviews are not verified by Playamoblados for accuracy and may be incorrect or misleading.

10.2 Members are prohibited from manipulating the Ratings and Reviews system in any manner, such as instructing a third party to write a positive or negative Review about another Member.

10.3Ratings and Reviews are part of a Member’s public profile and may also be surfaced elsewhere on the Playamoblados Platform (such as the Listing page) together with other relevant information such as number of bookings, number of cancellations, average response time and other information.

11. Damage to Accommodations, Disputes between Members

As a Guest, you are responsible for leaving the Accommodation (including any personal or other property located at the Accommodation) in the condition it was in when you arrived. 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, excluding the Host (and the individuals the Host invites to the Accommodation, if applicable).
