Couple of things I found interesting. Some of these things are not new but they are trying to make it very clear/understandable where their responsibility limits are. There have been recent threads on this site about A few of these topics.
2.4. Airbnb does not endorse any Member, Listing or Host Services. Any references to a Member being “verified” (or similar language) only indicate that the Member has completed a relevant verification or identification process and nothing else.
1.7. Due to the nature of the Internet, Airbnb cannot guarantee the continuous and uninterrupted availability and accessibility of the Airbnb Platform.
4.4 You may not register more than one (1) Airbnb Account unless Airbnb authorizes you to do so. You may not assign or otherwise transfer your Airbnb Account to another party. (Translation by me-Guests Cannot allow someone else to use their account-no third party bookings)
7.1.8 Airbnb recommends that Hosts obtain appropriate insurance for their Host Services.
7.2.1 Unless expressly allowed by Airbnb, you may not list more than one Accommodation per Listing.
7.4.4 As a Co-Host, you will not be reviewed by Guests, meaning that your Co-Host activities will not affect your Reviews or Ratings for other Listings for which you are a Host
10.1 …Ratings and Reviews are not verified by Airbnb for accuracy and may be incorrect or misleading.
11.4 If you are a Guest or a Co-Host, you understand and agree that Airbnb may make a claim under your homeowner’s, renter’s or other insurance policy related to any damage or loss that you may have caused, or been responsible for, to any personal or other property (including an Accommodation) of the Host
15.4 Airbnb may immediately, without notice, terminate this Agreement and/or stop providing access to the Airbnb Platform if (i) you have materially breached your obligations under these Terms…
19.4 Agreement to Arbitrate . You and Airbnb mutually agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising…will be settled by binding individual arbitration
There is a LONG section on cancellations—no real changes but reinforces, “this is how Airbnb handles cancellations”. Meaning if we don’t like it, we shouldn’t use their platform.
Long boring read, but if we make a mistake, it could cost us. Worth the read.
