You understand and agree that your use of our Site, App or Service is solely at your own risk.
Rogo expressly disclaims any and all warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. Because our Service enables Lenders and Renters to communicate with one another, we reserve the right to monitor such communications. However, we are not required to do so. We are not a party to any transaction that occurs between a Lender and a Renter. You expressly acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for, and we expressly disclaim, any and all liability that may result from (a) any information provided by a Lender or a Renter; (b) the provision or use of any product; and/or (c) the conduct, online or offline, of any user of the Service.
- NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES
Rogo does not sponsor, endorse, or recommend any Lender or Renter, nor do we make any representations or warranties about the quality, reliability, availability, legality, or suitability for a particular purpose of any product shown by Lenders on our Site or App. Additionally, we cannot and do not represent or warrant that any Lender is licensed, qualified, insured or capable of providing any product, and we make no representations or warranties about the accuracy or reliability of any information provided by a Lender or a Renter.

- RENTAL AGREEMENT
- For Lenders. When you use the Service to provide a product to a Renter:
- You represent and warrant that
- You are the sole Lender of the product or that you have full agency or other authority to provide the product to the Renter;
- The product is accurately described in the listing, including current condition and any known faults, defects or problems;

- As a Lender, you are solely responsible for the cost of any repairs or adjustments to the product that are not necessitated by damage caused by the Renter.
- All disputes arising out of or relating to the rental agreement or relating to the Renter will be resolved between Lender and Renter. At Lender’s request ROGO may, but is not required to, provide intermediary services to assist in facilitating a compromise solution. If Lender and Renter are unable to reach a satisfactory compromise, further action must be between those parties exclusively, using outside resources such as informal dispute resolution, arbitration, mediation, or the courts.

- You represent and warrant that
- You are knowledgeable with respect to the type of product being rented and adjustments required for the safe operation and use of the product;
- You have the legal capacity and full authority to enter into the rental agreement;
- You will treat the product with at least the same degree of care as you would your own property, and in any event with reasonable care; and
- You will return the product to the Lender in the same condition as you received it, except for ordinary wear and tear, on the due date and time and at the location specified in the listing.
- You are fully responsible for your safety and the safety of any third parties while using the product.
- You understand that there will be additional charges if the product is returned at a different time, date, or location than indicated in the listing, including late charges and/or additional rent charges, as specified in the listing.
- You must ensure the product

- is kept free of any liens or encumbrances; and
- is stored in a safe place and environment.
- You acknowledge the Lender may repossess the product at any time without notifying you in advance if:

- You will not remove any labels from the product, including but not limited to labels identifying the product as property of the Lender.
- You will not modify the product in any manner without the Lender’s prior written approval.
- All disputes arising out of or relating to the rental agreement or relating to the Lender will be resolved between Renter and Lender. If Renter and Lender are unable to reach a satisfactory compromise, further action must be between those parties exclusively, using outside resources such as informal dispute resolution, arbitration, mediation, or the courts.
- TERMINATION OF SERVICE
We reserve the right to deny Service to any person or entity at our sole and absolute discretion. You acknowledge and agree that Rogo may stop providing the Service or restrict your use of the Service at any time, without notifying you in advance, for any reason or no reason, including, without limitation, for any violation of this Agreement or if we suspect that you have used any aspect of the Service to conduct any fraudulent or illegal activity.
- ACCOUNT
To access the Service, you must have an account. You can create an account by completing the registration process. You may be required to provide information about yourself as part of the registration process or your continued use of the Service. You agree that any registration information that you submit to Rogo will be correct, accurate and up to date.
- FEES
If you are a Lender, you agree to pay Rogo a fee equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the gross amount of the rental fee specified in each listing corresponding to a rental transaction (the “Transaction Fee”). Included in this amount is a fee equal to two and nine-tenths (2.9%) of the gross amount of the rental fee specified in each listing, together with a 30-cent ($0.30) flat fee, for each rental transaction (together, the “Payment Processing Fee”), which we will pass on to our third-party payment processor, Stripe. You agree to pay all fees and taxes incurred by you or anyone using your account. The Fees will be payable in U.S. Dollars at the time the rental fee is paid by the Renter. Rogo may, from time to time, modify, amend, or supplement its pricing and billing procedures, and such changes will be effective immediately upon posting a link to an update of this Agreement or posting such changes elsewhere on the Site or the App. If there is a dispute regarding your payment of Fees for any rental transaction, Rogo has the right to terminate your account without prior notice. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ALL FEES AND OTHER CHARGES PAYABLE TO ROGO OR ONE OUR THIRD-PARTY PROVIDERS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE IN WHOLE OR IN PART. YOU ARE FULLY LIABLE FOR ALL CHARGES TO YOUR ACCOUNT, INCLUDING ANY UNAUTHORIZED CHARGES.
- PAYMENT PROCESSING
Payment processing for the Service for Lenders and Renters is provided by Stripe and is subject to the Stripe payment processing connected agreement, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively the “Stripe Agreements”) located at https://stripe.com/legal. By using the Service, you agree to be bound by the Stripe Agreements, as they may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As a condition of Stripe’s payment processing service, you agree to provide Rogo accurate and complete information about you, and you authorize Rogo to share such information and relevant transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe.
Rogo reserves the right to withhold payment or charge back to your account any amounts otherwise due to us under this Agreement, or any amounts due as a result of a breach of this Agreement by you. To ensure proper payment, you are solely responsible for providing and maintaining accurate contact and payment information associated with your account, which may include required tax information, or as otherwise required by applicable law. If you dispute any payment made hereunder, you must notify Rogo in writing within thirty (30) days of any such payment; failure to so notify Rogo will result in your waiver of any claim relating to any such disputed payment. Payments will be calculated solely based on records maintained by Rogo in its sole and absolute discretion. No other measurements or statistics of any kind will be accepted by Rogo or have any effect under this Agreement.
- TAXES
You are solely responsible for all tax obligations associated with your rental transactions. For purposes of this Agreement, “tax” means any income taxes, sales taxes, value added taxes (VAT), goods and services taxes (GST), or any other taxes that the Lender or Renter may be required by law to collect and/or remit to any governmental agencies. The laws in different jurisdictions vary. Rogo cannot and does not offer tax-related advice to anyone. Please consult your tax advisor to determine the tax treatment for your activities related to the Service. If you are entitled to an IRS Form 1099-k in connection with any transaction, it will be issued by Stripe. This section is provided for information purposes only and is not intended to constitute tax advice. You understand and agree that (a) you are solely responsible for complying with your tax obligations arising out of your use of the Service and (b) you will comply with such obligations. You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Rogo, its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, subsidiaries, agents, successors and assigns from and against any liabilities, damages, losses, costs, expenses or settlement fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, defense costs, investigation expenses, discovery costs, and court costs) arising out of your breach of this section. Neither Lenders nor Renters are considered “affiliates” for any purpose.

- GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; VENUE
This Agreement is governed by Washington law, without regard to conflict of laws principles.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Rogo will be allowed to apply for equitable remedies (including but not limited to injunctions) in any jurisdiction.
- BINDING ARBITRATION
- Writing. Certain portions of this Section 35 are deemed to be a “written agreement to arbitrate” pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. You and Rogo intend and agree that this Section 35 satisfies the “writing” requirement of the Federal Arbitration Act.
- First Try to Resolve Disputes and Excluded Disputes. If any controversy, allegation, or claim arises out of or relates to the Site, the App, these Terms and Conditions, or any additional terms, whether heretofore or hereafter arising (collectively, a “Dispute”), or to any of our actual or alleged intellectual property rights (an “Excluded Dispute”), then you and we agree to send a written notice providing a reasonable description of the Dispute or Excluded Dispute, along with a proposed resolution of it. Our notice to you will be sent to the most recent contact information that you provide to us; if no such information has been provided or if such information is not current, then we owe you no obligation under this Section. Your notice to us must be sent to: [email protected]. For a period of sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of notice from the other party, you and we will engage in a dialogue in order to attempt to resolve the Dispute or Excluded Dispute, though nothing will require either you or us to resolve the Dispute or Excluded Dispute on terms upon which you or we are not comfortable.
- Forums for Alternative Dispute Resolution. If you are located in, are based in, have offices in, or do business in a jurisdiction in which this Section 35 is enforceable, the following mandatory arbitration provisions apply to you:
- If we cannot resolve a Dispute within sixty (60) days of receipt of the notice, then either you or we may submit the Dispute to formal arbitration. If we cannot resolve an Excluded Dispute within sixty (60) days of our receipt of the notice, then either you or we may submit the Excluded Dispute to formal arbitration only if you and we consent, in a writing signed by you and an officer or legal representative of Rogo, to have that Excluded Dispute subject to arbitration. In such a case, that Excluded Dispute will be deemed a “Dispute” for the remainder of this Section 35.
- Upon expiration of the applicable sixty-day period and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a Dispute will be resolved solely by binding arbitration in accordance with the then-current Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”). If the Dispute has a claimed value of not more than $250,000, then the arbitration will be heard and determined by a single neutral arbitrator who is a retired judge or a lawyer with not less than fifteen (15) years’ experience as a practicing member of the bar in the substantive practice area related to the Dispute, who will administer the proceedings. If the Dispute has a claimed value of more than $250,000, or if we elect, in our sole discretion, to bear the costs of arbitration in excess of those that would occur for a proceeding before a single neutral arbitrator, then the arbitration will be heard and determined by a three-member panel, with one member to be selected by each party and the third (who will be chair of the panel) selected by the two party-appointed members or by JAMS in accordance with the then-current Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures. The arbitrator or arbitration panel, as the case may be, will apply applicable law, the provisions of these Terms and Conditions, and any additional terms set forth in our Privacy Policy to resolve any Dispute. Such resolution shall be made according to the applicable law and facts and will issue a reasoned award on no other basis. If you and we do not both consent to the arbitration of an Excluded Dispute as set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph of this Section 35c, then this paragraph and the remainder of this Section 35 will not apply to the Excluded Dispute.

- Nature, Limitations and Location of Arbitration. In arbitration, as with a court, the arbitrator must honor the terms of this Agreement (and any additional terms) and can award the prevailing party damages and other relief, including attorneys’ fees. However, with arbitration:
- there is no judge or jury;
- the arbitration proceedings and outcome are subject to certain confidentiality rules; and
- judicial review of the arbitration outcome is limited.
All parties to the arbitration will have the right, at their own expense, to be represented by an attorney or other advocate of their choosing. If an in-person arbitration hearing is required, then it will be conducted in the City of Vancouver, County of Clark, Washington. You and we will pay the administrative and arbitrator’s fees and other costs in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules; but if applicable arbitration rules or laws require Rogo to pay a greater portion or all of such fees and costs in order for this Section 35 to be enforceable, then Rogo will have the right to elect to pay the fees and costs and proceed to arbitration, or to decline to do so and have the matter resolved through the courts. Discovery will be permitted pursuant to the applicable arbitration rules. The arbitrator’s decision must consist of a written statement stating the disposition of each claim of the Dispute, and must provide a statement of the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and any award (if any) is based. Judgment on the arbitration decision and award (if any) may be entered in or by any court that has jurisdiction over the parties pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act.
- Severability. You and we agree that if any portion of this Section 35 is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion shall be severed, and the remainder of the section shall be given full force and effect.
- GENERAL
- No Collaboration. You understand and agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and us as a result of this Agreement or your use of the Service.
- Assignment. Rogo may assign its rights under this Agreement to any person or entity without your consent. The rights granted to you under this Agreement may not be assigned without our prior written consent, and any attempted unauthorized assignment by you will be null and void.
- Severability. If any part of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, then that portion shall be severed, and the remainder of the Agreement shall be given full force and effect.
- Attorneys’ Fees. In the event any litigation or arbitration is brought by either party in connection with this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 35 above, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party all the reasonable costs, attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by such prevailing party in the litigation.
- No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not constitute a present or future waiver of such provision, nor will it in any way affect our right to enforce the same provision at a later time. An express waiver by Rogo of any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement will not be understood as a waiver of your obligation to comply with the same provision, condition or requirement at a later time.
- Notices. All notices given by you or required under this Agreement shall be in writing and sent to [email protected].
- Equitable Remedies. You acknowledge and agree that we would be irreparably damaged if the terms of this Agreement were not specifically enforced, and therefore you agree that we shall be entitled, without bond, other security, or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to breaches of this Agreement, in addition to such other remedies as we may otherwise have available to us under applicable laws.
- ENTIRE AGREEMENT
This Agreement, including any documents referenced in it, constitutes the entire agreement between you and Rogo with respect to the Service. It supersedes any and all prior agreements between you and Rogo relating to the Service.
