    We respect the intellectual property rights of others and encourage users to do the same. Accordingly, we have a policy of removing User Submissions that violate intellectual property rights of others, suspending access to this Site (or any portion thereof) to any user who uses this Site in violation of someone’s intellectual property rights, and/or terminating in appropriate circumstances the account of any user who uses the this Site or any of the Services in violation of someone’s intellectual property rights.

    Pursuant to Title 17 of the United States Code, Section 512 (“DMCA”), we have implemented procedures for receiving written notification of claimed copyright infringement and for processing such claims in accordance with such law.

  • Identify the allegedly infringing material in a sufficiently precise manner to allow us to locate that material;
  • Contain adequate information by which we can contact you (including postal address, telephone number, and e-mail address);

In response, you may provide our Agent with a written counter-notification that includes the following information:

  • Your physical or electronic signature;
  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;

This Agreement, including policies incorporated herein, constitute the entire agreement between you and HomeZada with respect to the Site and the Services. This Agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals, whether electronic, oral or written, between you and HomeZada with respect to the Site. No provision of this Agreement shall be waived except pursuant to a writing executed by the party against whom the waiver is sought. No waiver will be applicable other than in the specific instance in which it is given. No failure to exercise, partial exercise of, or delay in exercising any right or remedy, or failure to require the satisfaction of any condition under, this Agreement shall operate as a waiver or estoppel of any right, remedy or condition.

Nothing in this Agreement creates a relationship of agent and principal, partners, franchisor-franchisee, joint venturers or employer–employee between the parties, and no act or obligation of either party will in any way bind the other. You may not assign, transfer or sublicense any or all of your rights or obligations under this Agreement without our express prior written consent. We may also provide notice of changes to this Agreement by displaying such notices or by providing links to such notices. You agree that a printed version of this Agreement and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this Agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.
