2. Application of these general terms and conditions

These general terms and conditions constitute, together with any other terms, an agreement between the User and Workaround. These general terms and conditions shall apply to all use of Workaround's services and apply to all Users.

If the User uses the service for the benefit of a company or organization that is a Landlord or Tenant, these general terms and conditions apply to such company or other legal entity in addition to the User. In such cases, the User guarantees that the User has the right to legally bind the company or organization to these general terms and conditions.

For Landlords, in addition to these general terms and conditions, Workaround's general terms and conditions for Landlords, as updated from time to time, applies to Landlord’s use of the services. If a party has entered into a separate agreement with Workaround, such agreement shall prevail in case of conflicting wording.

4. About the service

Workaround supplies a brokering service for the rental and booking of vacant premises. The service is based on information in the form of text and images - about users, meeting rooms, conference premises and office sites supplied by Workaround through its landlords and tenants.

The Landlord and Tenant enter into a direct agreement with each other for rentals mediated through the Workaround platform. Workaround provides a brokering service. Workaround is not a landlord and is not a party to the agreement between Landlord and Tenant.

Tenants and Landlords via the Workaround platform are responsible for the material displayed as well as the prices and availability of the object. It is not allowed to link or refer to external websites in the advert text or in other user-generated content on the Workaround website.

It is Workaround's policy to always review all material posted on the site. Workaround reserves the right to reject material and/or change information posted on the service.

Workaround does not provide any cover for property or premises against loss or damage due to theft or vandalism caused by the hirer. Each host and guest is responsible for their own insurance needs.

5. Notification of interest and exclusivity

When a User who is a Tenant chooses to submit a notification of interest to a Landlord via the service, the User (in this case the Tenant) authorizes Workaround to exclusively represent the User towards the Landlord(s) for a period of 30 days. Exceptions to the exclusivity only apply to such Landlord who, within 48 hours after receiving a notification of interest, notifies Workaround that they already engage in an active and ongoing dialogue with the User through other channels and/or other brokers of office space. However, this does not affect the exclusivity towards other Landlords.

If the User who is a Tenant does not contact Workaround after the initial 30 days and expresses in writing a desire to be represented by another office space broker, Workaround will represent the interested party on an ongoing basis towards Landlords (see Terms and Conditions for Hosts section 7 for more information).

Use of the service is free of charge for Users who are Tenants. Landlords shall pay compensation in accordance with Workaround's general terms and conditions for Landlords or separate agreement between the Landlord and Workaround.
