Terms of Use

These Terms of Use (the Terms) govern the use of the Kari website at kari.rent and its subdomains (the Service). They form a contract between you and Pavel Ilin, an individual entrepreneur registered in Georgia, identification number 345667655, address: Tamar Mefe Avenue 22a, flat 143, Batumi, Georgia (Kari, we, us).

By signing in to the Service you confirm that you have read and accept these Terms and that you have read the Privacy Policy. If you do not accept the Terms, do not sign in; you may still browse public listings. The English version of the Terms prevails; the Russian and Georgian versions are translations provided for convenience.

1. Definitions

• User: any person who uses the Service; you means the User.
• Owner: a User who lists a property that he or she owns.
• Representative: a User who lists a property on behalf of its owner under a notarised power of attorney.
• Tenant: a User who looks for a property to rent and requests viewings.
• Listing: an offer to let a property published on the Service, including its text, photos and conditions.
• Verification: the check described in section 5 of these Terms.
• Content: any text, photos, documents and other material that a User submits to the Service.

2. What the Service is

The Service is an online platform where Owners and Representatives publish Listings for long-term rental of residential property in Georgia, and Tenants find Listings and request viewings.

Kari acts only as an information intermediary. Kari is not a party to any lease or other agreement between Users, is not a real estate agent or broker, does not represent either party, does not hold deposits and does not collect or transfer rent or other payments. Any decision to enter into a lease, its terms and its performance are solely a matter between the Users concerned.

Using the Service is currently free of charge for all Users. Kari does not charge Tenants a commission.

3. Account

To list a property or request a viewing you must sign in with a Google or Apple account. By signing in you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and have full legal capacity, and that the information you provide is true and belongs to you.

Each person may have only one account. You must keep access to your Google or Apple account secure, and you are responsible for all actions taken through your account. Tell us at support@kari.rent without delay if you believe your account has been used without your permission.

You must keep your profile accurate and up to date. Tenants must not misstate who will live in the property, including children and pets.

4. Listing a property

You may list a property only if you are its owner or act on the owner's behalf under a valid notarised power of attorney that authorises you to let it. If the property has several owners, you confirm that you have the consent of the co-owners required by law.

A Listing must:

• concern a residential property in Georgia that is actually available for long-term rent;
• contain true, accurate and complete information, including the price, address, area, number of rooms, floor and the rental conditions (children, pets, payment scheme, deposit);
• contain only photos of that property that reflect its current condition and that you have the right to use;
• be removed or unpublished by you without delay once the property is rented or is no longer available.

A Listing must not:

• be false, misleading or a duplicate of another Listing for the same property;
• contain statements that discriminate on grounds such as race, colour, ethnic or national origin, citizenship, religion, sex, sexual orientation, disability or age. Owners may set objective conditions only through the fields provided by the Service (for example, children, pets, payment scheme and minimum term);
• offer short-term or daily rental, or anything other than the rental of the property described;
• contain contact details, links or advertising in the text or photos;
• require a Tenant to pay any money before a viewing or before a lease is signed;
• infringe the rights of third parties or the legislation of Georgia.

You are solely responsible for your Listing and for complying with the legislation of Georgia that applies to letting property, including tax obligations.

5. Verification and what the verification mark means

Before a Listing is published with the verification mark, Kari checks: (a) the identity of the person submitting it, through the identity verification service Sumsub; and (b) that this person's name and personal number match the owner shown in the Public Registry data for the cadastral code provided, as at the date of the check. For a Representative, a moderator also reviews the power of attorney. A Listing may be published only after a moderator has reviewed it, where the automatic check does not give a clear result.

The verification mark and its date show only the result of that check on that date. It does not guarantee, and Kari is not responsible for: changes in ownership, encumbrances or other registry data after the check; the accuracy of the Public Registry data themselves; the condition, legal status or suitability of the property; the accuracy of other information in the Listing; or the conduct of the Owner or Representative. We recommend that Tenants view the property in person, check the current registry extract at napr.gov.ge before signing, and sign a written lease.

Kari may repeat the check, ask for additional documents, and remove the verification mark or unpublish a Listing if the check cannot be completed or its result is no longer valid.

6. Viewing requests

When a Tenant requests a viewing, the request, the contact details provided and the Tenant's profile are passed to the Owner or Representative. The Owner or Representative decides whether to respond. Kari does not guarantee a response, the availability of the property or the conclusion of a lease.

Never pay a deposit, rent, a "booking fee" or any other amount before you have viewed the property and signed a lease. Report any such request, or any other suspicious behaviour, to support@kari.rent.

7. Prohibited use

You must not:

• use the Service for fraud, or to impersonate another person, or use another person's documents or data;
• try to obtain the verification mark by deception or bypass the verification;
• use contact details or other data of Users obtained through the Service for any purpose other than the rental of the property concerned, including for advertising or spam;
• harass, threaten or insult other Users;
• collect data from the Service by automated means (scraping, crawling, bots) without our written permission, or interfere with the operation or security of the Service;
• use the Service in breach of the legislation of Georgia.

8. Content and intellectual property

You retain your rights to the Content you submit. You grant Kari a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence, valid in all countries, for as long as the Content is published on the Service and for 30 days after it is removed, to store, reproduce, adapt technically (resize, crop, re-encode, translate) and display the Content on the Service, and to show your Listing when promoting the Service. You confirm that you have the rights necessary to grant this licence and that the Content does not infringe the rights of third parties.

The Service itself, including its design, name and logo, texts written by Kari and software, belongs to Kari and is protected by law. You may not copy or use it except to use the Service in the ordinary way.

9. Moderation and suspension

Kari may review Content before or after publication. If we reasonably believe that you have breached these Terms or the law, that a Listing is fraudulent or inaccurate, or if a competent authority requires it, we may refuse or unpublish a Listing, remove the verification mark, or suspend or close your account. Where practicable and permitted by law, we will tell you what we did and why. You may contest our decision by writing to support@kari.rent; a person will review your objection.

10. Paid services

Kari may introduce paid services, such as promotion of Listings. Before you order a paid service we will show you its price, content, duration and the terms of payment, cancellation and refund. Those terms will form part of these Terms. Nothing in them will limit the rights that you have as a consumer under the legislation of Georgia.

11. Availability of the Service

We make reasonable efforts to keep the Service available and working correctly, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may change, suspend or discontinue features of the Service. If we discontinue the Service as a whole, we will notify Users at least 30 days in advance where possible.

12. Liability

To the extent permitted by the legislation of Georgia, Kari is not liable for: Content published by Users; the actions or omissions of Users; any lease or other agreement between Users and its performance; the condition of any property; errors in Public Registry data; or interruptions caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control or by third-party services (including Google, Apple and Sumsub).

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under the legislation of Georgia, including liability for damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence, or the rights you have as a consumer.

You are liable for damage caused to Kari or to other Users by your breach of these Terms.

13. Ending the use of the Service

You may stop using the Service at any time and may ask us to delete your account by writing to support@kari.rent. When we delete your account, we unpublish your Listings. Some data is kept for the periods set out in the Privacy Policy.

Kari may close your account in the cases described in section 9. Sections 8 (as regards rights already granted), 12 and 15 continue to apply after your account is closed.

14. Changes to these Terms

We may change these Terms. The current version and its effective date are always published on this page. We will notify you of material changes at least 14 days before they take effect, by email or by a notice on the Service. If you continue to use the Service after the changes take effect, you accept them. If you do not accept them, you may stop using the Service and ask us to delete your account.

15. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the legislation of Georgia. If a dispute arises, please first write to support@kari.rent; we will try to resolve it within 30 days. If it cannot be resolved, it will be settled by the competent court of Georgia. This does not restrict any mandatory rules that allow a consumer to bring a claim in another court or before another body.
