Terms Of Service - Space Partner

Welcome to Upflex!

Upflex, Inc.(“us”, “we”, or “Upflex”) enables owners and/or operators of workspaces (each, a “Space Partner” or “you”) to offer for booking or otherwise make available its workspaces, which include without limitation, desks, meeting rooms, individual offices and partial, full or multiple floors (collectively, “Spaces”) for use by users who book the Spaces, either as individuals or through corporate accounts (collectively, “Guests”) on demand. The listing of Spaces by Space Partners, and access to and booking of Spaces by Guests, is completed through the Upflex dashboard on the website located at http://upflex.com (the “Site”) or through the Upflex mobile application and application program interface (the “Mobile Application”). This process requires the Space Partner’s registration for an account (as described in Account Registration below). Together, the Site and the Mobile Application are the “Upflex Platform”, and all associated services, including but limited to providing Spaces through the Site and the Mobile Application, are referred to as the “Service”). “Client Users” includes any registered user of the Service.  Additionally, Guests may have invitees who are not registered in the Upflex Platform but attend the booking, these individuals will be referred to as “Visitors”.

UPFLEX’S ROLE

As the provider of the Upflex Service, Upflex does not own, control, offer, or manage any listings or services provided by Space Partners, including but not limited to the amenities or inventory type of the Spaces. The booking of a Space by Guest on the Upflex Platform grants the Guest a revocable license to use the Space for the duration of time specified by the booking.  The contractual relationship for the use of Spaces are directly between Space Partners and Guests, and Upflex is not a party to these contracts. Further, Upflex is not a real estate broker or insurer and is not acting as an agent in any capacity for any Guest and, as a result, has no authority to act on behalf of any Member, except as expressly detailed in the Payment Terms section below.

The Upflex Service enables Space Partners to offer and publish Spaces and Guests to search for, book, and review Spaces. Upflex does not and cannot control the conduct of Guests and Space Partners. Upflex has the right, but no obligation, to monitor and verify that Space Partner use of the Upflex Service complies with the Space Partner Terms. Upflex also has the right, but no obligation, to monitor and verify that Guests are complying with their applicable Terms of Service.  Space Partner acknowledges and agrees that Upflex administers its policies, including those included in these Space Partner Terms, and decisions about whether and how to apply them to a particular situation, at its sole discretion. Space Partner agrees to cooperate with and assist Upflex and to take such actions and provide such information as may be reasonably requested by Upflex with respect to any investigation or actions undertaken by Upflex regarding the use or abuse of the Upflex Service.

Hosts are solely responsible for their Listings and for their Workspaces. Upflex does not guarantee the accuracy, existence, quality, safety, suitability, or legality of any Listings, Workspaces, Member ratings, reviews, or other Content, or the performance or conduct of any Member or third party, including but not limited to Hosts and Guests.

ACCOUNT REGISTRATION

In order to use certain features of the Service, Space Partner must register for an account (“Upflex Account”) and provide information about Space Partner and their spaces as prompted by the account registration form. Space Partner represents and warrants that: (a) all required registration information submitted is truthful and accurate; (b) you will maintain the accuracy of such information; (c) that you are not located in a country that is subject to U.S. government embargo or that has been designated by the U.S. government as a “terrorist supporting” country; and (d) you are not listed on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

Provided you give thirty-day notice, you may delete your Upflex Account at any time, for any reason, by following the instructions on our Site or within the Mobile Application. You may also suspend taking booking at any time for any reason.   At the Space Partner’s option, any existing bookings after termination effective date may be honored or may be canceled, provided Space Partner provides full refund for a canceled booking.  Upflex may terminate or suspend your Upflex Account in accordance with Termination and Suspension below.

SPACE LISTINGS

Through the Service, Space Partners may list a variety of Spaces, including desks, meeting rooms, private offices for booking for on-demand.  For each Space listed, Space Partner must (i) provide complete and accurate information about your Space (e.g., listing description, location, amenities, and availability); (ii) disclose any requirements that apply to use of a Space, including additional rules, regulations, check-in requirements; (iii) meet the insurance requirements set forth below; and (iv) provide any other pertinent information requested by Upflex. Any images used in your Space listings must accurately reflect the quality and condition of your Space. You are responsible for keeping your listing information (including availability) up-to-date at all times. All the items you provide in your listing are “Space Partner Content”

The placement and ranking of listings in search results on the Service may vary and depend on a variety of factors, such as location, User search parameters, User requirements, Space Partner requirements, availability, reviews and ratings, customer service and cancellation history, type of Space, and/or ease of booking.

You represent and warrant that any Space listings you post, and any Space you actually provide to a Guest, will: (a) not breach any agreements you have entered into with any third parties; (b) comply with these Space Partner Terms; (c) comply with all applicable laws, tax requirements, and other rules and regulations, including all rules relating to health and safety; and (d) have obtained all required permits, licenses, insurance coverage, and registrations. As a Space Partner, you are responsible for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of any individuals who are present at the Space.

ACCEPTANCE OF BOOKING REQUESTS MADE BY UPFLEX USER

When a Space Partner confirms, accepts or pre-approves a booking request made by a Guest, the Space Partner is entering into a legally binding agreement directly with the Upflex User and is required to provide the specific space  inventory  to the Guest as described in the Space listing when the booking request is made.  The booking of a Space grants the Guest a revocable license to use the Space for the time period specified in the booking request.  Upflex is not a beneficiary or otherwise a party to this contractual relationship between Space Partner and Guests.  Upflex shall only assist facilitating communication between Space Partner and Guest at Upflex’s discretion.

TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN GUESTS AND SPACE PARTNERS FOR BOOKING SPACES

Upflex offers the Service as a platform to connect Space Partners and Guests and to facilitate the booking of Spaces between the Space Partners and Guests. You understand and agree that Upflex does not act as an insurer or as a Guest’s, or as your contracting agent or real estate broker. If a Guest requests to book your Space and/or ultimately uses your Space, any agreement you enter into with such Guest is between you and the Guest and Upflex is not a party to that agreement.

As a Space Partner, you agree to abide by the following Space Partner policies:

• You are solely responsible for maintaining the Space in safe condition and in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances, including all applicable building requirements. You agree to share your health and safety policy and practices for the Space(s) with Upflex upon request.
• You are solely responsible for ensuring that the Space is clean and ready to use at the start of each reservation period.
• You are solely responsible for ensuring that the booking of the Space through the Service does not violate any lease or other agreements relating to Space or any building policies.
• You are solely responsible for ensuring that the Space provides all of the services and amenities listed in the description of the applicable Space.
• If you approve a booking of your Space to begin at a specified time or on a specified date, you shall ensure that the Space is available to the Guest at the specified time or on the specified date. In the event the Space is not available to the Guest at the specified time or on the specified date, you shall make available to the Guest at the originally scheduled time and date another Space in the same building of equal or larger size, similar configuration, and similar amenities for the same fee.

Both Guests and Space Partners may submit feedback to the Service following the completion of a Space booking. You acknowledge and agree that other Users may publicly post ratings and reviews of you and/or your Space, as applicable, and that Upflex may, but is not obligated to, monitor such postings. Upflex is not responsible in any manner for such ratings and reviews, and you hereby release Upflex from any and all claims, causes of actions, obligations or liabilities arising from or relating to such ratings and reviews.

Upflex requests that Guests comply with the Guest Code of Conduct set forth in the Upflex Terms of Service, but Upflex does not regulate or oversee Guest conduct in any manner.  Upflex will assist only in facilitating communication between the two parties should an issue arise.

INSURANCE

Space Partner shall, at its own cost and expense, maintain and keep in force at all times when it has Space(s) listed through the Service, appropriate insurance for each Space, including (a) commercial general liability insurance, including premises/operation liability, contractual liability, third-party property damage, and claims for personal injury and/or death, with a minimum limit of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Space Partner CGL Policy”); employer’s liability and worker’s compensation insurance to the extent required by applicable state laws; and any other insurance required by law. The Space Partner CGL Policy must include a waiver of subrogation in favor of Upflex and include Upflex as an additional insured. Please review any respective insurance policy carefully, and in particular make sure that you are familiar with and understand any exclusions to, and any deductibles that may apply for, such insurance policy, including, but not limited to, whether or not your insurance policy will cover the actions or inactions of Guests (and their invitees, if applicable) while working at your Space.

DISPUTES BETWEEN GUESTS AND SPACE PARTNERS

Upflex will provide such information as may be reasonably requested by Space Partners in connection with any complaints or claims made by Guests or Space Partners relating to Spaces or any personal or other property located at a Space. Upflex will assist only in facilitating communication between the two parties should an issue and/or dispute arise.

SPACE PARTNERS FEES

We charge Space Partners a service fee equal to 15% of the Space Partner’s list price from any daily, hourly, weekly, and monthly Booking to help Upflex provide a high-quality service to Space Partners, including managing the Platform, Bookings and payments. Except as otherwise provided on the Platform, Space Partner Fees are non-refundable.

Upflex in its sole discretion determines the price Upflex charges its users provided that the price will not be lower than the list price provided by the Space Partners. Space Partners MUST give thirty-day (30) advanced notice of any proposed changes or adjustment in their list price. Any bookings made in advance at the previous list price shall be honored and paid out at the previous rate. Upflex reserves the right to change the fees and/or commission structure for desks, meeting rooms, private offices and other inventory types, provided that such changes would only apply to future bookings. As a Space Partner, you can track the use of your Space on the Space Partner Portal that is updated in real time.

CHANGES, CANCELLATIONS, AND REFUNDS FOR SPACES

Space Partners and Guests are responsible for any changes to a booking that they make through the Service, including payment of any additional fees, services charges, and/or taxes associated with such changes. Guests can cancel an accepted booking at any time. If a Guest cancels an accepted booking at least 24 hours in advance, Upflex will refund any applicable fees. If a Guest cancels an accepted booking less than 24 hours in advance, there will be no refund of applicable fees. If a Space Partner cancels a confirmed booking, the Guest will receive a full refund of applicable fees for such booking within a commercially reasonable time of the cancellation. In some instances, Upflex may allow the Guest to apply the refund to a new booking, in which case Upflex will credit the amount against the Guest’s subsequent booking at the Guest’s direction. Space Partners may only cancel a confirmed booking if the Space is rendered unusable, the amenities listed as available at the Space at the time of booking are no longer available, or with at least 30 days’ advance (when possible) written notice so as to not inconvenience Guests.

In certain circumstances, Upflex may decide, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary to cancel a confirmed booking and make an appropriate refund. In such circumstances, the Guest will receive a full refund of applicable fees for such booking. If a Guest cancels a confirmed booking or Upflex determines that it is necessary to cancel a confirmed booking, and such cancellation necessitates a refund to the Guest in accordance with these Space Partner Terms, the Space Partner agrees if the Space Partner has already received payment for such booking, Upflex will be entitled to recover the amount of such refund from Space Partner, including by offsetting such refund amount out from any future payments due to Space Partner.

TERMINATION AND SUSPENSION, UNPUBLISHING OF LISTING

These Space Partner Terms will remain in full force and effect while you use the Service. We may suspend or terminate these Space Partner Terms and your right to use the Service at any time for any reason at our sole discretion, including for any use of the Service in violation of these Space Partner Terms. You may request to delete your Upflex Account at any time within your User settings or by sending us an email at support@upflex.com; provided, however, that such Space Partner-initiated termination will be effective 30 days from the date of request for deletion (“Termination Date’). For avoidance of doubt, you must give Upflex 30 days’ advance notice prior to removing your Spaces from the Service and terminating your Upflex Account.  All bookings, up to and including the Termination Date , shall be honored.  You may also choose unpublish space and disable bookings for a period of time.  If this option is chosen, the listing will appear but it will not be possible to make a booking.   Upon the effective date of termination of your Upflex Account, your right to access and use the Service will terminate immediately.  If you delete your Upflex Account as a Space Partner, any confirmed booking(s) will be automatically canceled and your Guests will receive a full refund for any pending bookings.

• obscure, delete, or delay any Space listings, ratings, reviews, or other User Content;
• cancel any pending or confirmed bookings;
• limit your access to or use of the Service; and/or

If your access to or use of the Service has been limited or your Upflex Account has been suspended or terminated by us, you may not register a new Upflex Account or access and use the Service through an Upflex Account of another User.
