2. REGISTRATION OBLIGATIONS 

To use certain areas of this Website, you must first complete the registration process to create an account ("Account”) and select and register a unique username and password (collectively, "Credentials”). Your Account and Credentials are specific to you and may not be shared with or transferred to any other person. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Credentials and you will be held responsible for any harm caused by disclosing or resulting from any unauthorized use of your Credentials. You will not permit any other person to use your Account or Credentials, and you will immediately notify RentBubba if you know or suspect that your Account or Credentials have been used by any other person. 

During the registration process, you will provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Service’s registration form (such information being the "Registration Data”). You will also maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current, and complete. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or complete, or RentBubba has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or complete, RentBubba has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service (or any portion thereof) by you.

For greater certainty, verification of the identity of a person means the examination of an original identifying document from an independent source (for example, a piece of government-issued photo identification such as a driver’s license or passport) to ensure that the person is who they say they are. If RentBubba, at its discretion, considers your Account or Credentials to be insecure or to have been used inappropriately, then RentBubba may immediately cancel the Account or Credentials without any notice to you.

3. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES 

Services. RentBubba is offering to persons who have Accounted a service to enable the rental of goods to other persons who have Accounts (the "Services”). The provision of the Services is subject to these Terms, or other terms you accepted when subscribing for the Services. The Services include features to allow persons who have Accounts to publish an advertisement(s) for good(s) that such person (each, an "Owner”) desires to rent to persons who have Accounts (each, a "Renter”). The Services also include features to enable Renters to schedule a rental, make arrangements for pickup or delivery, and payment of rental fees. All goods rented through the Service shall be subject to the terms of a rental agreement ("Rental Agreement”) between the Owner and the Renter, which shall incorporate these Terms and Conditions.

Advertisements of Goods Available for Rent. Each advertisement must include a description of the Owner’s good(s) available for rent, photograph(s) of such good(s), pricing, availability, the location for pickup or delivery instructions, and any additional restrictions apply to the use of such good(s) by each Renter. Photographs should reflect the present condition of the Owner’s goods available for rent, and you agree to provide a higher quality photograph upon request. The Owner should include a link to the online instruction manual for such good(s) if available and/or include copies of the instruction manual(s) if available. 

Cancellation of rentals. Each advertisement for good(s) available for rent through the Service shall specify the cancellation terms apply for such rental(s). Details on RentBubba’s options for cancellation are available at the following link: www.rentbubba.com/cancellation policy. Owners or Renters may cancel a Rental Agreement by submitting a cancellation request using the Service, and acknowledging a cancellation will negatively impact the Owner’s or Renter’s ranking on the Service. Subject to reasonableness, RentBubba reserves the right to suspend or cancel access to the Service for repeat cancellations in excess of three. 

Use of Rented Goods. Each Renter agrees that the Owner’s good(s) will only be used in accordance with the corresponding instruction manual if available, and any additional restrictions specified by the Owner in the advertisement, which will be reproduced in the Rental Agreement. The Renter is responsible for any damages to the Owner’s good(s) up to the replacement value, and agrees to return the Owner’s good(s) in the same condition that good(s) were provided to the Renter. Rented good(s) may not be re-rented to third parties. 

Security Deposits. The Service also permits Owners to request a security deposit subject to processing for loss of or damages to the rented good(s). The security deposit is paid at the same time as the rental fee and is held without interest by RentBubba’s payment processor for the duration of the rental period. The security deposit will be returned to the Renter if no losses or damages have been reported with respect to the rented good(s) following the completion of the rental period in accordance with Section 3.6 below. 

insurance for Rented Goods. Subject to eligibility, Owners have the option to purchase insurance to cover damage and/or loss of the Owner’s good(s). Details on RentBubba’s insurance are available at the following link: www.rentbubba.com/protect. If insurance coverage is not available, or if an Owner does not agree to purchase insurance, then the risk of damage to and/or the loss of the Owner’s good(s) shall be borne by the Owner.

FOR GREATER CERTAINTY, RENTBUBBA SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, LOSSES, INCLUDING THEFT OF THE OWNER’S GOOD(S), RENTED USING THE SERVICES.

All claims for damages/losses under RentBubba’s insurance must also be submitted no later than twenty-four (24) hours following the completion of the rental period. For eligible insurance good(s), the Owner shall be reimbursed as per the terms of RentBubba’s insurance policy less the applicable deductible. 

Late Fees. The Renter acknowledges and agrees that late fees will be charged at a rate of triple the daily rental rate plus a ten percent (10%) processing fee for rented goods(s) that are not returned in accordance with the return date(s) specified in the Rental Agreement. Good(s) not returned within five (5) days may be deemed by RentBubba to have been lost or stolen. 

Disputes. RentBubba must be informed of any disputes between the Owner and the Renter regarding damages or losses within forty-eight (48) hours following the completion of the rental period. If we are unable to resolve any such dispute within a reasonable time, not to exceed fourteen (14) days, then the
