The Host is responsible for ensuring that the accommodation he offers is described accurately, correctly and completely. He must provide the information in GoLodger’s required fields at a minimum so that the accommodation and the offer are described with sufficient accuracy.
The Host is free to stipulate further conditions such as the amount of any deposit, the cost of final cleaning, cancellation options, etc... The various cancellation policies that can be agreed are available under cancellation policies.
The user is liable to GoLodger for all actions performed using his user account, unless the user is not responsible for the misuse of his user account.
Once the user is aware that third parties have access to his user data or have otherwise gained access to his user account, he must notify GoLodger of this immediately. GoLodger is entitled to then block the user account until the situation has been clarified.

GoLodger saves for the user the multimedia content uploaded by him (images, text, etc...). It merely arranges the necessary memory space and access to it. Users themselves are therefore solely responsible for the content they upload to GoLodger and indemnify GoLodger against all third-party claims resulting from this.

GoLodger merely provides access to the websites and accepts no responsibility for the content. The links to third-party Internet sites merely serve to facilitate navigation.

GoLodger is not responsible for third-party offerings or content. The owners of third party content or Internet sites to which GoLodger.com links to are solely responsible for both their content and for the goods or services that they offer.
By posting your listing on GoLodger.com, you also agree that your property’s data will be shared and viewed on third party websites and/or applications with which GoLodger has an agreement with. In any case, GoLodger is not responsible for any booking made via a third party website and/or application and these bookings will be concluded solely at the Host’s discretion. The Host will be notified that this is a booking from a third party.
Booking process, payment, invoicing
By listing an accommodation on GoLodger.com, the Host is issuing an invitation to submit offers. Another user can submit an offer to conclude a lease for this accommodation. The agreement arises if the Host accepts this offer within 24 hours in a manner intended by GoLodger. Otherwise, the other user is no longer bound to his offer.
You understand that a confirmed booking of an 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.
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 the checkout time is not specified by Host, the checkout time will be 10:00 AM by default. 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. GoLodger Payments will collect Overstay Fees from you pursuant to the Payments Terms. A Security Deposit, if required by a Host, may be applied to any Overstay Fees due for a Guest’s Overstay.
Cancellations are considered to be withdrawals before the planned check-in. One of the options shown under Cancellation Policies can be agreed. Refunds required as a result will be paid by GoLodger to the Guest after deducting any applicable cancellation fees and any cost incurred in making the refunds.
The Host must ensure that:
the description of the accommodation and the images used do not violate the law or third-party rights and that they relate only to the accommodation on offer.
successfully booked accommodation is indicated accordingly.
information uploaded does not constitute references to third-party content.
he complies with public law regulations, particularly those for payment, factoring and tax law obligations, which may also include any obligations under sales tax law or indirect tax obligations. The Host will be solely responsible of the obligations and duties of the offer content. GoLodger is entitled to verify whether Hosts are fulfilling their tax obligations or not.
The payment process shall take place under the following provisions:
The agreement arises by way of a total price shown at the end of the booking. This consists of the rent, the service fee and any other fees demanded by the Host such as cleaning fees. The fees comprise of an administration component and a property-based component.. After a booking has been made, GoLodger notifies users of its content and the total price.
GoLodger is entitled to change the amount of service fees at any time. This does not apply to leases already concluded.
The Tenant must pay the total price shown in the booking by way of the channel chosen in the booking process. GoLodger receives the money from the Tenant on behalf of the Host and holds it for the Host. The booking is only considered concluded once GoLodger receives the rent amount from the Tenant. This especially applies to payments via Cash Collection and Bank Deposit.
GoLodger transfers the rent amount to the Host 24 hours after Guest check-in in the rented accommodation if the Guest did not raise any dispute or submit any request to GoLodger to hold or cancel the payment. In case the Guest wants to raise a dispute or hold the payment, instructions to GoLodger must be sent immediately using the contact form in the Contact Us page stating grounds and/or rationale for doing so.
If use of the accommodation is not transferred to the Tenant as per contractual arrangement, the Tenant has the right to a full refund.
The Host shall satisfy his obligation to pay the service fee to GoLodger by way of GoLodger deducting the service fee from the rent amount and transferring the balance amount to his account, so that the Host does not have to make any further payments.
Users can offset GoLodger service fees against receivables only if these are due and have been legally established or are undisputed. Receivables cannot be transferred to third parties.
On request, the Host must issue the Tenant with an invoice for the total price. On request, GoLodger will issue the Host with an invoice for the service fee, though this will be shown without sales tax or similar indirect taxes in accordance with tax law provisions, unless expressly stated otherwise in these regulations.
Unless GoLodger is notified otherwise, it is refutably assumed that the Host operates in a business capacity and is aware of his resulting (sales) tax obligations and satisfies these accordingly. GoLodger is entitled to demand corresponding evidence of the Host’s business capacity.
The Host reserves the right to additionally charge other on-site costs based on consumption and use (in particular: electricity, water, heating). The Host must advise the Tenant that he has a basic right to charge these costs before concluding the agreement. Such costs are not taken into account in the calculation of the service fee. This also applies to any security deposit.
Booking vouchers issued by GoLodger can be used by Tenants to make bookings within set periods. Tenants do not receive any payment.
Users are prohibited from circumventing the above booking and payment processes, in particular the service fees.
Security Deposit
The Host is entitled to charge a security deposit in his offer. If a Host demands a security deposit from the Tenant on the day of arrival, corresponding information on the amount of the security deposit and the payment method must have already been mentioned in the offer and/or the property description. The amount of the security deposit must be stipulated prior to the booking. It must also be clarified in advance when the amount must be paid (e.g. three months before arrival, in cash on arrival).
If the Host did not mention the security deposit when advertising his accommodation, but demands a security deposit at a later time and the Tenant does not agree, this constitutes a refusal to render performance by the Host under the agreed contract. In such cases, GoLodger reserves the right to cancel the booking and to charge the Host a cancellation fee.
GoLodger is not responsible for the administration of security deposits or for any claims asserted by the Host.
Review system
The website allows users to review each other after the conclusion of the transaction. Reviews are intended to provide meaningful information on users' trustworthiness. The reviews are not reviewed in advance by GoLodger.
Users undertake to make only truthful statements in the reviews they submit and to comply with the corresponding legal provisions. The reviews expressed by users must not violate third-party rights, in particular personality rights. They must be objective and must not contain defamatory criticism.
Any use of the review system contrary to the purpose of the review system is prohibited. In particular, users are prohibited from issuing reviews about themselves or arranging for third parties to let information be known in reviews that is unrelated to the settlement of the underlying agreement, and are prohibited from using reviews for any purpose other than presentation on the website.
GoLodger does not intervene in the review system without justifiable grounds. Reviews issued will be neither amended nor removed by GoLodger unless GoLodger is legally and specifically required to do so. Reviews cannot be altered after they have been posted. They are saved permanently in a user’s reviews profile and can be viewed by all users. GoLodger is entitled to add notes to a review if this is useful for clarification and a better understanding of the review in question. The only case where GoLodger will publish a review in place of a user is if the Host has cancelled a booking, in which case an automatic one-star review will be published on the offer.
If reviews are abused by a user, GoLodger shall have the right to remove the review as an exception and to take the measures stated in section 12. This applies in particular if:
the review must be removed on account of an enforceable court ruling against those who issued the review;
the comment contains remarks that are vulgar, obscene, racist, not suitable for minors, sexual in nature or criminally offensive;
the review contains another member’s personal information, such as name, address, telephone number or e-mail address;
the review contains unauthorised links or scripts;
if a user has inadvertently posted a negative review for the wrong user, but has already corrected this error and assigned the same review to the correct user;
the review was issued by a person who was not authorised to make the booking;
the review comes from a user whose user account was blocked by GoLodger within 90 days of registration. This does not apply to user accounts that are blocked for non-payment of a service fee or in situations where users are granted the opportunity to solve the problem and the user account is restored.
If both users agree, a review that has already been issued can be withdrawn. The review point will be removed and will no longer be included in the reviews profile.
Duration, termination
This Agreement shall be effective for an indefinite amount of time until such time when you or GoLodger terminate the Agreement in accordance with this provision.
You may terminate this Agreement at any time via the "Delete Account" feature in the User Account on the GoLodger platform. If you cancel your GoLodger Account as a Host, any confirmed booking(s) will be automatically cancelled and your Guests will receive a full refund. If you cancel your GoLodger Account as a Guest, any confirmed booking(s) will be automatically cancelled and any refund will depend upon the terms of the Listing’s cancellation policy.

cancel any pending or confirmed bookings;
limit your access to or use of the GoLodger Platform;

In case of non-material breaches and where appropriate, you will be given notice of any intended measure by GoLodger and an opportunity to resolve the issue to GoLodger's reasonable satisfaction.
If we take any of the measures described above (i) we may refund your Guests in full for any and all confirmed bookings that have been cancelled, irrespective of preexisting cancellation policies, and (ii) you will not be entitled to any compensation for pending or confirmed bookings that were cancelled.
When this Agreement has been terminated, you are not entitled to a restoration of your GoLodger Account or any of your Member Content. If your access to or use of the GoLodger Platform has been limited or your GoLodger Account has been suspended or this Agreement has been terminated by us, you may not register a new GoLodger Account or access and use the GoLodger Platform through an GoLodger Account of another Member.

Measures in the event of illegal conduct and/or conduct in breach of contract by the user
GoLodger.com is entitled to terminate access to the Website for any User with or without giving any reasons and with or without prior notice. This will especially apply in cases where the User is violating legal provisions, third party rights or when the information provided by the subscriber upon registration is misleading and/or incorrect, or when a User publishes content that is misleading, harms others, sexual or violent in nature, or conflicts with public morality. The second party does not have the right to repudiate the first party’s decision and/or compel the first party to retract its decision.
In case GoLodger determines that a user is in breach of its Terms & Conditions and/or is not acting in good faith, GoLodger can contest and cancel existing leases in the name of the Host without taking into account the otherwise applicable cancellation policies, and reject the user’s offers for the conclusion of a lease in the name of the Host.
Leases that have already been concluded between the user and other users are not affected by deletion of a property. This applies accordingly to claims for the payment of service fees already due. An effective lease does not arise if GoLodger deletes an offer before it is accepted by a user.
GoLodger reserves the right to block a user, taking the legitimate interests of the users into account, if the user has repeatedly received negative reviews.
GoLodger’s Liabiltiy

Cancellation by the Host:
GoLodger.com takes booking cancellation very seriously as it gives a negative experience to Guests.
In the case of a cancellation by the Host, the Guest will be reimbursed the full price of the booking. In such cases, no cancellation fees will be incurred by the Guest.
GoLodger will help the Guest find alternative accommodation to the best of its abilities.
GoLodger will publish an automatic one-star review on the Host’s property.
The Host must pay a cancellation penalty fee of 20% from his next booking.
The cancellation penalty will be deducted from the Host’s outstanding amounts with GoLodger.com. If there is no outstanding amount or if there is any remaining amount, it will be deducted from the Host’s next booking(s) or it can be paid voluntarily by the Host to GoLodger.com.
The Host will not receive a payment from any bookings they have canceled.
The listing connected to the canceled booking will be penalized in the rankings; this could lead to less booking requests in the future. Furthermore, the dates won’t be available for anyone else to book.
For the second time the Host cancels a booking, the Host will pay a penalty fee of 50% from his next booking with GoLodger.com. Any subsequent cancellations after that may lead to the permanent removal of the Host’s property from GoLodger.com and the Host will not be able to post any units on GoLodger.com.
GoLodger, at its own discretion, has the right to waive the the penalty fees and the one-start review if the cancellation was done for Extenuating Circumstances, such as an unexpected death of a family member or a serious illness.
After the Host has confirmed the booking, GoLodger.com collects the deposit amount from the Guest via his chosen payment method.
The booking is considered to be confirmed only when GoLodger.com collects the deposit amount from the Guest.
The Guest pays the remainder of the rent amount at Checkin.
GoLodger.com releases the deposit amount minus our Service Fees and any banking / transactional charges to the Host 24 hours after Guest check-in. If check-in happens on a weekend or on a public holiday, the Host will receive the funds the first working day after that. The time it takes for the Host to receive the funds depends on the Host's chosen preferred payout method.
The Host is responsible for updating his preferred Payout Method in the user profile so that GoLodger.com can send the amounts received for property rentals.
Currently the only Payout Method available is wire transfers to the Host's bank account. The user can update his bank account information securely in the Payout Method tab in the User Profile.
In case of any refunds to the Hosts or to the Guests, it will be done using the transfer method which is most convenient for GoLodger.com.
The Host may be liable for a penalty of 20% in the case of posting inaccurate data on the website and / or in the case of handing over the unit in poor conditions to the Guest (unless otherwise displayed / described clearly on the unit’s page or pre-agreed with the Guest)
Guests must report any issues / inaccurate data within 12 hours of check-in. Failure to report any issues within the first 12 hours means that the Guest has accepted the condition of the property as is.
In case GoLodger receives a complaint by the Guest that the property data listed on the website is inaccurate, GoLodger will hold the Host’s payment and will launch an investigation to compare facts during which it may ask the Guest to submit photos and / or videos that may support their claim.
In case the data is found to be inaccurate, the Host must refund 20% of the rental amount to the Guest if the Host and the Guest mutually agree to continue the lease.
In some cases, when the data is extremely inaccurate, the Guest might get a refund of 50% if he decided to continue his stay at the property. GoLodger has the sole discretion over deciding on the refund amount and its decision will be final.
In case the Guest decides to vacate the property, he will be entitled to a full refund.
GoLodger has the final say in all disputes and its decision is considered final. Not agreeing to GoLodger’s decision can be considered a breach of contract and can result in terminating the User’s account.
The Host must amend the property’s data and ensure that the information on the website is complete and accurate in order to comply with GoLodger’s Terms and Conditions. Failure to do so will lead to the permanent removal of the property from the website and to the disabling of the Host’s account.
The Host’s property will be permanently removed and his account will be permanently deactivated if GoLodger receives a second complaint about data inaccuracy.
