  1. Reservation Information.

 

When you make a reservation to license a Guest Unit, you agree to provide current, complete, and accurate information. You agree to promptly update any information that you provide, including your email address, phone number and credit card numbers and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed. 

 

If you change or deactivate the email that you used to make a reservation for any Guest Unit, you must update your information within 72 hours to prevent us from sending to someone else messages intended for you. 

 

  1. Modification of these Terms.

 

Placemakr reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions of these Terms at any time by posting the amended Terms to the Site or otherwise through the other Placemakr Services. If Placemakr updates these Terms, it will update the “last updated” date at the top of the Terms. Please check these Terms, including any Policies, periodically for changes. Your continued (a) making of a reservation, (b) licensing or occupancy of a Guest Unit or (c) use of Site, after the posting of changes constitutes your binding acceptance of such changes. In the event that a change to these Terms materially modifies your rights or obligations, Placemakr will make reasonable efforts to notify you of such change. Placemakr may provide notice through a pop-up or banner within any of the Placemakr Services, by sending an email to any address you may have used to make a reservation, or through other similar mechanisms. Additionally, if the changed Terms materially modify your rights or obligations, Placemakr may require you to provide consent by accepting the changed Terms. For all other changes, except as stated elsewhere by Placemakr, such amended Terms or Fees will automatically be effective, replacing the previously-effective Terms or Fees. IF AT ANY TIME YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, PLEASE IMMEDIATELY TERMINATE YOUR RESERVATIONS AND THE USE OF THE SITE AND ALL OF THE OTHER PLACEMAKR SERVICES. 

 

To the extent that any modifications to the Terms are not allowed under applicable laws, the current version of the Terms or Policies shall continue to apply provided that such modifications shall not be effective and only with respect to the provisions modified, the prior version of the Terms shall continue to apply.
