By registering, signing in, or using our Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. All references to "RentMate" or "the System" in these Terms refer to the Service Operator and/or those acting on his behalf. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

2. Description of Service & Digital Delivery SLA

RentMate provides technological tools for managing rental properties, tracking payments, calculating index-linkage, generating property handover protocols, producing lease contract drafts, and managing documents. All calculations and document generation serve as technological aids only and do **not** constitute legal, financial, tax, or professional advice. The user is solely responsible for verifying the accuracy of calculations and ensuring the contract complies with applicable laws.

Digital Delivery SLA: RentMate is a digital Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform. Service delivery and tool access occur immediately upon account registration in the mobile app (or free tool usage on the website), with zero physical delivery fees or shipping delays.

3. User Accounts, Security & PCI-DSS Compliance

To access certain features, you must register and create an account. You agree to provide accurate, complete, and updated information. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. Authentication via third parties (like Google Sign-In) is also subject to their respective terms and policies.

No Website Billing & PCI-DSS App Store Standard: The RentMate website operates strictly as an informational and free-tools portal with zero direct payment processing or credit card collection on the website. Where paid app subscriptions or services are offered in the future, billing is processed using SSL/TLS encryption under strict PCI-DSS Level 1 standards directly through official app stores (Apple App Store & Google Play) and/or licensed payment providers. Payment card details are never stored on RentMate servers.

4. Limitation of Liability and Absolute Indemnification

4.1 Disclaimer of Warranties (As-Is & As-Available): The Service, calculators, contract generators, handover protocols, and all generated outputs are provided strictly on an "As-Is" and "As-Available" basis without warranties or representations of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service Operator and his representatives shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages (including loss of profits, lost rental income, errors in index linkage calculations, contract drafting inaccuracies, landlord-tenant legal disputes, data loss, or outages of third-party APIs such as CBS, WhatsApp, or Google).

4.2 Cap on Liability: If, notwithstanding the foregoing disclaimers, any liability is established against the Service Operator by a competent court, the total aggregate liability of the Service Operator for all claims arising out of or related to the Service shall not exceed the lesser of the actual total fees paid by the user to RentMate in the three (3) months preceding the event, or 100 NIS (One Hundred Israeli Shekels).

4.3 Indemnification: You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Service Operator, his affiliates, officers, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, or debt, and expenses (including legal and attorney fees) arising from: (a) your use of or access to the Service; (b) your violation of any term of these Terms of Service; (c) any tenant dispute, contract error, or incorrect data input by you; or (d) any third-party claim brought against the Service Operator in connection with your account or use of the Service.

4.4 Force Majeure in Israel: The Service Operator shall not be liable for any delays, performance failures, or outages caused by Force Majeure events beyond reasonable control, including war, hostilities, military operations, emergency military call-up (Tzav 8), civil defense directives (Home Front Command), nation-wide strikes, natural disasters, or national telecommunication network interruptions.

5. Tenant Messaging, Third-Party Document Uploads & Background Screening

Users of the Service (the "Landlord") may utilize system-generated messaging links (such as One-Tap WhatsApp links) opened directly on the Landlord's personal device to communicate with their tenants, as well as optional automated system notifications where enabled in supported tiers. When dispatching messages via personal WhatsApp links, the Landlord is the sole sender and bears exclusive responsibility for message content, accuracy, and legal compliance. Automated system notifications, where activated, are strictly conditional upon obtaining the tenant's prior express consent (Opt-in). The Landlord represents and warrants that they have legally obtained such consent and shall immediately cease dispatching messages if the tenant requests to opt out. This service is limited to operational notifications only (payment management, index adjustments, lease termination, insurance and guarantees) and does not constitute promotional or advertising material.

Landlord Representation Regarding Third-Party Documents (Tenants, Candidates & Guarantors) and Public Registry Checks: Whenever inputting personal details or uploading documents belonging to third parties (including national ID copies, payslips, income records, checks, leases, or guarantor details of tenants or rental applicants), or initiating background lookups against official publicly accessible Israeli government registries (such as Bank of Israel restricted accounts and Ministry of Justice insolvency registries via data.gov.il), the Landlord represents and warrants that they have duly informed the data subjects and obtained their prior express consent to submit, process, and verify such information for tenancy evaluation purposes. The Landlord bears sole and exclusive liability toward any tenant, applicant, or guarantor for unauthorized uploads or checks and shall fully indemnify the Service Operator against any resulting claim.

13. Statutory Disclaimer — AI Scanner, CPI & Rent Tax Calculators, Document Generator & Electronic Signatures

Strict Legal & Tax Disclaimer: RentMate is a technological self-service platform for managing rental properties and is not a law firm, CPA firm, licensed tax advisor, appraisal corporation, investment advisor, or licensed real estate brokerage. The AI Lease Scanner, CPI linkage calculators, Residential Rent Tax Simulator (exemption, 10% flat tax, and marginal tax tracks), contract and guarantor draft generators, and digital handover protocols serve strictly as self-service technological aids and do not constitute legal, tax, accounting, appraisal, or financial advice.

Pursuant to Section 20 of the Israel Bar Association Law, 1961, the Service does not substitute for individual legal counsel by a licensed attorney or tax advice by a certified accountant or tax advisor.

Electronic Signature Status: The platform's electronic signing workflow for leases, addendums, guarantor letters, and handover protocols (incorporating SMS/WhatsApp OTP verification, audit timestamps, and SHA-256 document hashing) operates as a technological evidentiary mechanism constituting a standard electronic signature, and does NOT constitute a "Certified Electronic Signature" issued by a registered Certifying Authority under the Israeli Electronic Signature Law, 5761-2001. Parties remain responsible for confirming suitability for their specific legal transaction.
