Terms of service

Last updated [DATE] · Draft. Our lawyers still have to review this text.

These terms apply when you use Cozi Stay to find, book or rent a home in Texas. Please read them before you book.

If something here is unclear, email hello@cozistay.com (sample) and we'll explain it.

1. About us

Cozi Stay is run by [COMPANY LEGAL NAME], [ADDRESS]. We run the website and the app. We don't own the homes listed on it. Each home is rented out by its owner or property manager, who is your host or landlord.

2. Your account

You need an account to book, apply or pay, and you must be 18 or older. Keep your password to yourself. If you think someone else has used your account, tell us straight away.

3. Booking a short stay

The price at checkout is what you pay. It includes the nightly rate, the cleaning fee and taxes.

Your booking is confirmed once the payment goes through. The host's house rules and cancellation policy are part of the booking, so read them before you pay.

4. Renting long term

Sending an application doesn't mean you have the home. If the landlord accepts you, you sign a lease with them directly. The lease sets the rent, the deposit, how long you stay and what each of you is responsible for.

We keep a copy of the signed lease in your account and collect rent for the landlord.

5. Payments

You pay online. Our payment provider processes the payment, and we never see your full card number. Deposits are kept apart from rent and returned under the terms of your booking or lease.

6. Cancelling

You can cancel a short stay from your booking page. Before you confirm, we show you how much you'll get back under the policy you accepted. Refunds go to the card or account you paid with.

7. What you agree not to do

Don't list a home you have no right to rent. Don't use Cozi Stay to harass anyone. Don't turn away guests or tenants because of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status or national origin.

8. Our liability

[LIABILITY TERMS TO BE PROVIDED BY COUNSEL]

9. Which law applies

Texas law governs these terms. [VENUE AND DISPUTE TERMS TO BE PROVIDED BY COUNSEL]

10. If we change these terms

We'll email you at least [NOTICE PERIOD] before a change applies. Bookings and leases you already have stay under the version you accepted.
