b. Our Relationship with You. The Services contain Content and a set of tools to assist persons and entities in the net lease property exchange market. Our users may include real estate brokers, buyers, sellers, developers, lenders, borrowers, and other third-parties that service or otherwise participate in the net lease property exchange market (e.g., accountants and appraisers). From time to time, we may also provide other paid products and services. Ultimately, however, all real estate transactions are themselves governed by purchase and sale agreements or other transaction documents between buyers, sellers, brokers, and other involved parties (“Transaction Documents”), whether or not you use the Services in connection with any of the same. Accordingly, you acknowledge and agree that:
b.i. We make no guaranty regarding or otherwise in respect of any of our users, including the number of brokers, buyers, sellers, lenders, and other third parties registered on the Platform, or the number of Registered Users that may be qualified or otherwise available to you via the Platform;
b.ii. Any terms and conditions of any Transaction Documents are and will be solely and exclusively between you and the relevant contract counterparty or parties (as applicable);
b.iii. We do not endorse, and make no representations or warranties regarding, any user of the Platform or any property or services offered for sale by any such user, including without limitation, with respect to certification, licenses held, experience, credibility, timeliness or quality, any other qualifications, or the integrity, responsibility or actions of any user of the Platform, whether in public, private or offline interactions. With respect to any broker user or any other user that purports to hold certain licenses, certifications, permissions and/or authority, we do not and will not have any obligation to independently verify the licensure, certification, permission and/or authority of such users, and it is your sole responsibility to confirm the same;
b.iv. Your engagement with any user of our Platform (whether via Transaction Documents or otherwise) is at your sole and exclusive risk, and you can and should conduct due diligence you deem necessary or appropriate before doing so. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each buyer and seller is solely responsible for conducting all necessary due diligence activities regarding any property, which may include title and legal status, current and potential valuations, physical condition and aesthetic/tenant improvement attributes, environmental reports, encumbrances, or any other pertinent information. Buyers and sellers are encouraged to consult with licensed professionals to review all relevant information, records, and reports. Buyers and sellers assume all risk and potential liability related to due diligence activities. We do not guaranty or otherwise verify the completeness or accuracy of any Content made available on or through our Services in respect of these issues; and
b.v. We are not and will not be responsible or liable for any acts or omissions of a user of our Platform with which you engage.
We are not a licensed brokerage firm or entity and are not licensed real estate brokers; therefore, we require that any seller offering a property via the Services be represented by a broker unless the seller is a licensed real estate broker or unless otherwise unnecessary.
ANY DISPUTES BETWEEN USERS OF THE SERVICES ARE SOLELY BETWEEN SUCH USERS. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT WE HAVE NO OBLIGATION OR RESPONSIBILITY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH DISPUTES (INCLUDING DISPUTES INVOLVING TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS).
c. Your Submission of Registration Information to Us. To access the Services or parts thereof (such as the Platform), you will be asked to provide certain registration details and other information. It is a condition of your use of the Services that all registration information you provide on or via the Services is correct, current, and complete. You understand that our collection, use and disclosure of all such information is governed by our Privacy Policy, and you consent to all actions we take with respect to such information consistent with our Privacy Policy. We may (but are not obligated to) directly or through third parties, make any inquiries we consider necessary to validate your identity or other information provided by you to us. Any user who identifies himself or herself as a broker or agent on the Services hereby represents and warrants that he or she is validly licensed as a broker and is in compliance with applicable broker requirements in all jurisdictions in which he or she is required to be licensed. We may, in our sole discretion, but without any obligation to verify the licensure of such individual as a broker or agent, remove from the list of brokers any user who we believe is not a licensed broker or agent in any applicable jurisdiction. We may in our sole discretion terminate the accounts of, and refuse services to, any user who repeatedly or knowingly misrepresents any registration information, including his or her licensed broker or agent status or upon notification by any state agency or similar governmental authority that such user is not a licensed broker (if and as applicable).
d. Access Credentials. You may be issued a username, identification number, password, link, or security key, security token, PIN or other security code, method, technology or device used, alone or in combination, to verify an individual's identity and authorization to access and use the Services (“Access Credentials”). We encourage you to use strong Access Credentials (i.e., in the case of a password, one that is long, uses a mix of letters (upper and lower case), numbers and symbols, has no ties to your personal information, and no dictionary words) even if the Services permit simple Access Credentials. You have and will retain sole responsibility for the security and use of all Access Credentials, including for any losses that you or any third-party may suffer as a result of the authorized or unauthorized use of any Access Credentials by any third-party. We reserve the right to disable any Access Credentials at any time in our discretion for any or no reason, including (without limitation) if, in our opinion, you have violated any provision of these Terms.
e. Email Capabilities of the Services. The Services may include certain email campaign, marketing and newsletter services for brokers (the “Email Services”) which provide a collection of tools and resources to create, launch, and manage certain email campaigns related to listings and other activities by the applicable broker. By using any Email Services, you agree to send email only to those who have given you consent or with whom you have an established business relationship. Furthermore, you acknowledge and agree that: (i) your use of the Email Services and any Content included by you in any email must be in compliance with all Laws, (and for the avoidance of doubt, may not be used for the sending of illegal unsolicited email or “spam”); (ii) if required by applicable Laws, every message sent in connection with the Email Services must contain an unsubscribe or opt-out link or function; and (iii) we may in our sole discretion immediately disable your access to the Email Services at any time for any reason, including, without limitation if we believe that your use of the same is unlawful or otherwise harmful.

b. Your Content May Expose You to Liability. You acknowledge that Your Content may expose you to liability. For example, but not by way of limitation, you may be exposed to liability if Your Content contains material that is false, intentionally misleading, or defamatory; violates any third-party right, including any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, moral right, privacy right, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property or proprietary right; contains material that is unlawful, including illegal hate speech or pornography; exploits or otherwise harms minors; or violates or advocates the violation of any Laws. You agree not to submit any of Your Content to us unless you have received all necessary rights and authorizations, including from the photographer or videographer and/or copyright owner of any photographs or videos, to publish and advertise the property listing online. Specifically, you shall not submit a photograph if you received the photograph from a third-party information provider under the terms of a license that does not allow posting of such photograph or video on our Platform. You: (i) represent and warrant that all properties and associated information provided by you to us, including Your Content, will be accurate; and (ii) agree to administer the properties provided by you and maintain their accuracy at all times. You are entirely responsible, and we accept no responsibility, for Your Content. While we will undertake reasonable efforts for data backup and business resumption, you will be solely responsible for retaining back-up copies of all Content that you provide to us.
c. Use of Your Content. We may use Your Content as set forth in our Privacy Policy. We have no obligation to retain or provide you with copies of Your Content, nor do we guarantee any confidentiality with respect to Your Content. Accordingly, once you submit Your Content to us, you thereby irrevocably grant us a world-wide, perpetual, non-exclusive, royalty-free, assignable, sub-licensable, transferable license and right to use, reproduce, adapt, aggregate, perform, display, publish, translate, prepare derivative works from, modify, distribute, sell, and take any other action with respect to all of Your Content (in whole or in part), whether submitted in the past or in the future, and/or to incorporate it in other works in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed.
We reserve the right to add, delete, replace, rearrange, or otherwise modify all or any portion of Your Content as we deem necessary or appropriate, including, for example, to best fit the applicable Services’ content presentation format, and/or to avoid a third party infringement claim. You acknowledge and agree that we will in no event be responsible or liable for, and hereby forever release and will indemnify defend and hold us harmless from, any errors or omissions that may occur or otherwise result from any addition, deletion, replacement, rearrangement or other modification by us to all or any portion of Your Content.
We may, in our sole discretion but without any obligation to search for such, remove any Content (including Your Content) in violation of these Terms. We will, in our sole discretion, terminate the accounts of, and refuse Services to any user for any reason, including to any user who repeatedly or knowingly violates these Terms. We will have the sole authority to choose the manner in which any property listing will be searched, displayed, accessed, viewed, downloaded, copied, and otherwise used on the Platform and we will have the right to modify the property listing in the exercise of our rights under these Terms.
d. Listing Content. The Services may show listing content from Your Content and listing content we gather from other sources (collectively, “Listing Content”). With respect to any Listing Content submitted by you to us, we may offer you the opportunity to view and/or approve such Listing Content before we make it publicly viewable on the Services, in which case, you will promptly view, approve or request edits, provided that your failure to indicate approval or to request changes within 24 hours of receiving the link to the proposed Listing Content will cause your approval to be deemed automatically and without need of further action from you or us. If, following publication you would like to request changes to Listing Content submitted by you, then you can do so by contacting us at [email protected] and requesting the relevant changes.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, we reserve the right to create our own Listing Content or to add, delete, replace, rearrange, or otherwise modify all or any portion of Listing Content submitted to the Services by you, in each case, as we deem appropriate in our sole discretion. You acknowledge and agree that our own Listing Content, or our additions, deletions, replacements, rearrangements or other modifications to your Listing Content, may include (without limitation) scoring or other key performance indicators (as determined by us in our sole discretion) that may reflect negatively or positively on your listing, and you will hold us harmless from and against any liability or losses that you might incur as a result of any such Listing Content. We may, at any time and without prior notice, screen, remove, edit, or block any Listing Content on the Services, that in our sole judgment violates these Terms or are otherwise objectionable. If notified by a user of the Services or content owner that Listing Content allegedly do not conform with these Terms, we may investigate the allegation and determine in our sole discretion whether to remove the Listing Content on a going-forward basis, which we reserve the right to do at any time and without notice.
You agree to waive, and hereby do waive, any legal or equitable right or remedy you may have against us with respect to any Listing Content. We expressly disclaim any and all liability in connection with Listing Content. For more information on our handling of infringing Content, please see the following “Copyright Infringement” Section.

If these state laws apply to you, some or all of the above disclaimers, exclusions or limitations may not apply to you. In the event that the foregoing is determined or held to be inapplicable or unenforceable by any court, arbitration panel or other tribunal, then the statute of limitations for the State of Florida, including Chapter 95, Florida Statutes, will apply to any such action, claim, dispute or proceeding referred to final or binding arbitration.
17. OUR REMEDIES.
You acknowledge that we may be irreparably damaged if these Terms are not specifically enforced, and damages at law would be an inadequate remedy. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision of these Terms by you, we will be entitled, in addition to all rights and remedies, to an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach, without being required to show any actual damage or to post an injunction bond, or to a decree for specific performance of the provisions of these Terms. You agree that (notwithstanding Section 18 below) we may bring any action or proceeding with regard to such injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach in the courts of record of Miami-Dade County, Florida, or the United States District Court, Southern District of Florida, Miami Division. You consent to personal jurisdiction over you by such court and to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court, and waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in such court.
18. LEGAL DISPUTES.
a. Applicable Law. These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflicts of law principles. You agree that the Services will be deemed: (i) solely based in the State of Florida; and (ii) a passive service that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over us and our assigns, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than the State of Florida.
b. Agreement to Arbitrate. Any civil action, claim, dispute or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms or any previous version of these Terms, your use of or access to the Services, including any Content (except for an injunctive action regarding a breach or threatened breach of any provision of these Terms by you as provided above) will be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, before a single arbitrator, rather than in court.
b.i. Before initiating arbitration, you acknowledge and agree that you will first give us an opportunity to resolve your problem or dispute. This includes sending a written description of your problem or dispute to us including, but not limited to, information or representations related to the Services and upon which you rely to [email protected] , Attn: Legal Dispute. You agree to negotiate with us in good faith about your problem or dispute.
b.ii. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is very limited. However, an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual. You and we agree that the arbitrator will apply the terms of these Terms as a court would.
b.iii. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms, and to arbitrate any part of these Terms, including any claim that all or any part of this section or these Terms is void or voidable.
b.iv. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) exclusively in Miami-Dade County, Florida, under the AAA’s rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (as applicable), as modified by this section. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the AAA’s site at http://www.adr.org.
b.v. You and we will select the arbitrator, and if you and we are unable to reach agreement on selection of the arbitrator within 30 days after the notice of arbitration is served, then the AAA will select the arbitrator. Arbitration will not commence until the party requesting arbitration has deposited U.S. $1,000 with the arbitrator for the arbitrator’s fees and costs. Subject to the foregoing, payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's applicable consumer rules. The parties shall be responsible for their own attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration, unless they are authorized by law or the arbitrator determines that a claim was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose or in bad faith.
b.vi. The arbitration hearing will commence within 60 days after the appointment of the arbitrator and the hearing will be completed and an award rendered in writing within 60 days after the commencement of the hearing. Prior to the hearing, each party will have the right to take up to four evidentiary depositions, and exchange two sets of document production requests and two sets, each, of not more than 10 interrogatories.
b.vii. The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator will not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving our other users, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same user to the extent required by applicable law.
b.viii. Judgment on any award rendered by the arbitrator is final, binding and conclusive on you and us and your and our respective administrators, executors, legal representatives, successors and assigns, and may only be entered in the state or federal courts of record for Mia
