1. About Spot Me
Spot Me ("we", "us", "our") operates an online marketplace that connects people who need parking ("Renters") with people who make private parking spaces available ("Hosts"). Spot Me is not a parking provider, is not a party to any rental agreement between a Renter and a Host, and does not take possession of any vehicle.
2. Using Spot Me
You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use Spot Me. You agree to provide accurate, current information and to keep your account details updated.
3. Bookings & payment
When you book a spot you authorize a charge for the displayed all-in price. Payments are processed by Stripe; Spot Me does not store your card details. A receipt is emailed after a successful charge.
4. Host responsibilities
You confirm you have the legal right to offer the space, that listing it does not violate any lease, HOA, or local rule, and that the space is safe and accurately described. You are responsible for the condition of your space and for making it available as booked.
5. Renter responsibilities
You agree to use the spot only as agreed, to park lawfully and within the marked area, to follow the Host's instructions, and to leave on time. You are responsible for any damage you cause.
6. Fees
Spot Me charges Hosts a 20% platform fee on each completed booking; Hosts keep 80% of the booking amount. Prices shown to Renters are all-in.
7. Cancellations & refunds
Renters may cancel free up to 24 hours before the booking start. Later cancellations and refunds are handled at our discretion. Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method via Stripe and may take several business days to appear.
8. Prohibited conduct
You may not use Spot Me for any illegal activity, to damage or trespass beyond the booked spot, to misrepresent a space, or to evade fees. We may suspend accounts that violate these Terms.
9. Liability
Spot Me is not responsible for damage to, or theft of, vehicles or personal property, or for injury at a listing. See our Liability page for details. You use Spot Me at your own risk.
10. Changes & termination
We may update these Terms and suspend or terminate access for cause. If we make material changes, we will post the updated Terms.
