1. What FlatPing is
FlatPing is a real estate marketplace that connects people looking to rent or buy property directly with property owners, verified local brokers, and potential flatmates. We give you the choice of how you navigate real estate. FlatPing is a platform, not a party to any rental or sale agreement. We do not own, manage, inspect, or guarantee any property, and FlatPing itself does not act as a broker or agent. FlatPing operates only as an intermediary that hosts and transmits content provided by users, within the meaning of the Information Technology Act, 2000 and the rules made under it. We do not initiate the transmission, select the receiver, or modify the information contained in user listings and messages, except for lawful moderation as described in Section 10.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use FlatPing. By using the Service, you confirm that you meet these requirements and that the information you provide is accurate.
3. Your account
- You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure and for all activity under your account.
- You agree to provide accurate information and to select the correct account intent (e.g., Renter, Owner, Broker) that reflects your actual use of the platform.
- You may not impersonate others, create accounts for anyone but yourself, or maintain multiple accounts to evade restrictions.
- Notify us promptly of any unauthorised use of your account.
4. Your listings and content
You are solely responsible for the listings, photos, messages, reviews, and other content you post. You represent that:
- You have the right to list the property and to post the content you provide.
- Your listings are genuine, accurate, and not misleading.
- Your content does not infringe anyone's rights or violate any law.
You grant FlatPing a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, display, and distribute your content within the Service for the purpose of operating and promoting FlatPing.
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Post false, fraudulent, duplicate, or misleading listings.
- Harass, threaten, spam, or defraud other users.
- Post unlawful, discriminatory, obscene, or harmful content.
- Collect or scrape other users' data, or use the Service to send unsolicited messages.
- Attempt to disrupt, reverse-engineer, or gain unauthorised access to the Service.
- Use FlatPing for any purpose other than genuine real estate transactions and flatmate connections.
6. Transparent ecosystem policy
FlatPing operates a dual-ecosystem based on transparency. Users can choose to deal directly with owners to skip brokerage fees, or to hire a verified local broker for expert assistance. Honesty is mandatory: Brokers and real estate agents must identify themselves by creating a Broker profile. Posing as a direct owner while acting as an undisclosed broker, or hiding fees, is strictly prohibited and will result in permanent removal from the platform.
7. Verification and reviews
Verification (including identity documents or RERA registration) is optional. Where completed, it indicates that we have reviewed the documents submitted. It is not a guarantee of any user's conduct or of any property. Users may leave reviews on Broker storefronts. Reviews must be honest and based on genuine transaction experiences; we may remove reviews that are fake, abusive, or violate these Terms. Brokers have the right to publicly respond to reviews on their profile.
8. Fees and advertising
FlatPing is free to use. We do not charge you usage fees or subscription fees, and we do not take any commission or cut of any property transaction. If you choose to engage a broker found on FlatPing, any brokerage fee is agreed and settled directly between you and that broker, independently of us.
FlatPing is supported by advertising. We display third-party advertisements through Google AdMob. These ads are served by Google and its advertising partners, who may use device identifiers (including your device's Advertising ID) and similar technologies to select, deliver, and measure ads. How this data is handled is described in our Privacy Policy and in Google's own policies. We may introduce additional paid or premium features in the future; if we do, we will make their terms clear before you use them.
9. Dealings between users
Any rental agreement, sale contract, payment, deposit, visit, or other dealing arising from a connection made on FlatPing is solely between the users involved. FlatPing is not responsible for the conduct of any user, the condition or legality of any property, the truth of any listing, or the outcome of any transaction. We strongly encourage you to verify details independently, visit properties in person, use written agreements, and exercise extreme caution before transferring any funds.
10. Moderation and removal
We review listings and profiles before they go live and may edit, hide, or remove any content, and suspend or ban any account, that we reasonably believe violates these Terms or harms users or the platform. Where practical we aim to act fairly, but we may act without prior notice where necessary to protect users.
11. Intellectual property
The FlatPing name, logo, app, and design are owned by us and protected by law. These Terms do not grant you any right to use them except as needed to use the Service. Content you post remains yours, subject to the licence in Section 4.
12. Disclaimers
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that any listing, user, or property is genuine, accurate, or suitable.
13. Limitation of liability and indemnity
To the maximum extent permitted by law, FlatPing will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or for any loss arising from your dealings with other users, your reliance on any listing, any in-person meeting or property visit, or your use of (or inability to use) the Service. To the extent any liability cannot be excluded, our total aggregate liability to you for all claims relating to the Service is limited to the amount you have paid us for the Service, which for a free service is zero. Nothing in these Terms limits any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless FlatPing InfoTech (OPC) Pvt. Ltd., its directors, officers, and employees from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and costs (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or connected with: (a) content you post; (b) your use or misuse of the Service; (c) your dealings or disputes with any other user; or (d) your breach of these Terms or of any applicable law or third-party right.
14. Termination
You may stop using FlatPing and delete your account at any time (see our Delete account page). We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms or where necessary to protect the Service or its users. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (such as content licences already granted, disclaimers, and limitations of liability) will continue to apply.
15. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of India. Subject to applicable law, the courts of New Delhi, India will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the Service.
16. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date and, where appropriate, notify you in the app. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised Terms.
