Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk and we disclaim all liability and responsibility for any loss or damage resulting from such reliance. Furthermore, while we take certain measures intended to assist users in avoiding potentially fraudulent or other illegal activity, including using third-party identity verification services to help ensure the identity of users before allowing them to use certain interactive features of the Website (such as requesting credit reports or using the electronic payments service), we cannot and do not guarantee the effectiveness of these measures or the accuracy of the identity of any user, even if we have indicated that such user’s identity has been verified. You assume the risk of transacting business with any other user or third-party through the Website and understand that an indication that a user’s identity has been verified means only that the user has provided sufficient information to satisfy the identity verification process of our third party identity verification vendors and that it is not a guaranty of the identity of such person. The Website may include content provided by third parties, including materials provided by other users, bloggers and third-party licensors, syndicators, aggregators and/or reporting services. All statements and/or opinions expressed in these materials, and all articles and responses to questions and other content, other than the content clearly provided by us, are solely the opinions and the responsibility of the person or entity providing those materials and do not necessarily reflect our opinion. We are not responsible, or liable to you, for the content or accuracy of any materials provided by any third party.

In some cases, these interactive services are provided by third parties. By using the interactive services, you specifically acknowledge and agree that any information submitted by you or obtained by us or such third parties in connection with your use of these services, including, but not limited to, your name, address, phone number, credit history, including credit report and/or score, rental history, and employment history/verification, may be provided to us or by us to third parties (including but not limited to potential lessors, credit reporting services, third-party vendors, advertisers, and service providers, or other third parties). YOU ARE PROVIDING EXPRESS PERMISSION FOR US TO COLLECT ALL SUCH INFORMATION AND TO PROVIDE IT TO THIRD PARTIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH OUR PRIVACY POLICY.
8. Credit Reporting and Background Checks
We allow rental managers to request a credit report and/or a background check report from prospective tenants through the Website. When a landlord makes such a request, we will give the prospective tenant the option to order a single use copy of his or her credit report and/or background check report and to share it with the requesting landlord. To provide this service, we may ask for your Social Security Number and other personally identifying information (such as information about other creditors you have had), which we will share with our third-party credit reporting agency for the purposes of preparing and sharing reports and verifying your identity, and which we will not store (except on a temporary basis) or use for any other purpose.
If you are a landlord requesting a credit report or a background check report from a prospective tenant, You represent that you are making such request, and will use such report, in compliance with applicable law and solely for the purpose of your own evaluation of the prospective tenant in connection with that tenant’s rental application and for no other purpose, and that that you have never been involved in, and promise that you will not become involved in, any credit fraud or other unethical business practice and that you will immediately notify us and discontinue all use of the Website and any reports and other information obtained via the Website if you are ever involved in any such fraud or practice. You must familiarize yourself with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) and any applicable state laws governing the use of consumer reports and comply with the FCRA and all such state laws. To the extent you rely in any way on the content of a report in taking an adverse action against an applicant (such as denying an application or requiring a co-signer or higher deposit), you may be required to furnish the applicant with an adverse action notice as required by the FCRA and applicable state law, even if the content of the report played only a small role in your decision. Note that for purposes of credit reports, ManyRoofs is the applicable consumer reporting agency (“CRA”), and for purposes of background check reports, the company providing the background check is the applicable CRA. If you are a tenant ordering a credit report or background check report, you certify that you are ordering such report, and will use such report, for the purpose of furnishing the report to a prospective landlord in connection with your rental application and for no other purpose. You agree not to share any credit report or background check report obtained through the Website with anyone other than as allowed using the sharing mechanism on the Website. Credit-report and background check-report functionality is provided by our third-party credit reporting agencies and may not be available for all users or at all times for various reasons, including reasons beyond our control or about which we may not have specific information. If you are unable to order, share, request, or view a credit report or background check report using the Website, you should contact the person requesting or being asked to provide the report via the contact information provided through the Website to discuss the matter directly. You may also contact us at support@manyroofs.com for assistance. We are not a credit bureau and do not control the content of credit reports (except to the limited extent described above with respect to opt-in rental payment reporting), including reports obtained through the Website. We are NOT responsible for the content of any credit report or background check report or any credit score, whether correct or incorrect. Credit reports and background check reports can contain information that is incorrect, incomplete, or not up to date, and reports are not a substitute for carefully reviewing and independently verifying all information contained in a rental application and interviewing a prospective tenant. If you believe that any information contained in your credit report or background check report is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to dispute it. To dispute the content of your credit report, please contact us via email at support@manyroofs.com or the telephone number displayed when your report is made available for viewing on the Website.

As such, any dispute between any Indemnified Party (including, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, third parties who are not signatories to this agreement) and you that is not resolved through negotiation, including any dispute as to the validity or applicability of this arbitration clause, shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the JAMS under its rules and procedures in effect when the claim is filed.

So, for example, if a provision in these terms is found to be unenforceable, we agree an arbitrator (or, if permitted, a court) shall only strike that provision and that the remaining provisions of the Terms shall remain in force. The Terms constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all previous written or oral agreements between us with respect to such subject matter. You may not assign the Terms or assign any rights or delegate any obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, without our prior written consent. Any such purported assignment or delegation by you without the appropriate prior written consent will be null and void and of no force and effect. We may assign the Terms and any rights or delegate any obligations hereunder without your consent and notice.
