What these Terms actually say
- RentCaddie is software. You pay a monthly fee; we give you access, keep your data isolated, and never sell it.
- Plans are month-to-month. Cancel anytime. The 14-day trial is free; after that you pay $97/mo until you cancel.
- If RentCaddie doesn't save you at least 12 hours in your first 30 paid days, we refund the month and pay you $100. One email.
- Your data is yours. One-click JSON or CSV export anytime. Cancel and we delete everything within 30 days (except what regulations require we keep).
- Disputes go to arbitration, individually — no class actions. Our total liability is capped at 12 months of fees you paid us.
01 Acceptance of terms
These Terms of Service (the "Terms") form a binding agreement between you and RentCaddie ("RentCaddie," "we," "us," or "our") governing your access to and use of the RentCaddie platform, website, APIs, and related services (collectively, the "Service").
By creating an account, clicking "I agree," or otherwise accessing or using the Service, you accept these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you are entering into these Terms on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and "you" refers to that organization.
You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into a binding contract to use the Service. RentCaddie is a business tool intended for property owners, property managers, and their authorized team members. It is not offered for personal, household, or consumer use.
If you do not agree to these Terms, do not create an account and do not use the Service.
02 Description of service
RentCaddie is a cloud-based property management platform that helps operators list units, screen applicants, sign leases, collect rent, process maintenance requests, run inspections, keep accounting records, and communicate with tenants, cleaners, and vendors. The Service is delivered as software-as-a-service.
Features, limits, and included integrations may change over time as we improve the Service. We may add, modify, or remove functionality at our discretion; where a change materially reduces the core functionality of a paid plan, we will provide reasonable notice and, if applicable, a prorated adjustment.
The Service is a tool. RentCaddie does not provide legal, financial, tax, or real-estate advice. We don't draft leases for your jurisdiction, we don't underwrite tenants, and we don't decide whether to rent to an applicant. You are solely responsible for compliance with the laws that apply to your rental business — including fair housing, landlord-tenant, security deposit, fair credit reporting, consumer notice, and tax laws.
03 Account registration & security
To use the Service, you must register for an account through our authentication provider (Supabase Auth). You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to keep it up to date. Each paid subscription corresponds to a single workspace — a private, isolated environment that holds your properties, tenants, leases, payments, documents, and settings.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to use strong, unique passwords and to enable multi-factor authentication when we offer it. You will notify us immediately at security@rentcaddie.com if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.
You may invite team members to your workspace at roles defined within the product (for example, Owner, Admin, Manager, Accountant, Field staff, Viewer). You are responsible for the conduct of anyone you invite, including revoking access when they leave your team. Sharing a single login across multiple people is prohibited.
We may suspend or terminate accounts that show evidence of compromise, fraud, or violation of these Terms. We will try to notify you before doing so unless doing so would risk further harm.
04 Subscription plans & billing
RentCaddie is offered on a subscription basis at $97/month per workspace, with unlimited units included. Plan details and current feature inclusions are described on our Pricing page and may be referenced within the product.
Free trial. New workspaces receive a 14-day free trial. A payment method is required at signup; you are not charged until the trial ends. You can cancel before the trial ends to avoid any charge.
Billing & auto-renewal. Monthly plans renew on the same calendar day each month. Your payment method is charged automatically at the start of each billing period. All fees are quoted in U.S. Dollars and exclude applicable taxes. You authorize us and our payment processor (Stripe) to charge your chosen payment method for each recurring charge.
Cancellation. You may cancel at any time from within the product. Cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period; we do not prorate partial-month cancellations on monthly plans.
Failed payments. If a charge fails, we will retry and notify you. After 14 days of continued failure, we may suspend billable features until the balance is paid. Accounts that remain past due for 30 days may be downgraded or canceled.
Price changes. We may change standard pricing for new customers at any time. Existing customers will receive at least 30 days' advance notice by email before any price change takes effect, and customers grandfathered into legacy pricing will be protected as described in the announcement.
05 The RentCaddie Guarantee
We offer a one-time money-back guarantee for new paying customers. You are eligible if, at the end of your first 30 paid days, the in-app "Time Saved" report shows that RentCaddie has saved your workspace fewer than 12 hours of work compared to its baseline estimate.
To claim the guarantee, send a single email to hello@rentcaddie.com within 14 days of the end of your first 30 paid days that includes your workspace name and your in-app Time Saved report. We will:
- Refund any subscription fees you paid during those first 30 paid days to your original payment method; and
- Issue you an additional $100 via refund or ACH, typically within 10 business days of verification.
The guarantee is limited to one claim per customer and per workspace. It does not cover: (a) third-party fees charged by Stripe or other integrated providers; (b) accounts that did not configure core features (rent collection, lease creation, or maintenance) during the 30-day period; or (c) fraud, abuse, or obvious gaming of the Time Saved report. We reserve sole discretion to determine eligibility in good faith.
In plain English: Use the product for a month. If it didn't save you 12 hours, we pay you to leave. One email, no forms, no hoops.
06 Acceptable use
You agree not to use the Service to do anything unlawful, harmful, or abusive. Without limiting the foregoing, you agree not to:
- Harass, threaten, discriminate against, or retaliate against any tenant, applicant, vendor, or RentCaddie user, including conduct that violates fair housing or anti-discrimination laws;
- Use the Service to commit fraud, launder money, evade tax, or violate any other applicable law or regulation;
- Send unsolicited bulk communications (spam) to tenants, applicants, or third parties, or use RentCaddie's messaging tools in violation of TCPA, CAN-SPAM, or similar laws;
- Circumvent, disable, probe, or interfere with any security feature, rate limit, usage quota, or access control;
- Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the Service, except to the extent such restriction is prohibited by law;
- Scrape, data-mine, or copy any portion of the Service other than your own workspace data;
- Upload malware, viruses, or content that infringes someone else's intellectual property, privacy, or publicity rights;
- Resell, sublicense, or white-label the Service without a written agreement with us.
Violation of this section is a material breach of these Terms and may result in immediate suspension or termination without refund.
07 User content & intellectual property
Your data is yours. As between you and RentCaddie, you own all data, files, documents, images, and other content that you or your team members upload to the Service, including tenant personal information, lease documents, and accounting records ("Customer Content"). We do not claim any ownership interest in Customer Content.
Limited license to us. You grant RentCaddie a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, copy, transmit, display, and process Customer Content solely as necessary to provide the Service to you, to secure it, to back it up, to prevent fraud and abuse, and to comply with law. This license exists only for the duration of your subscription plus the limited retention windows described in our Privacy Policy.
No AI training without consent. We do not use Customer Content to train general-purpose AI models. Where AI features operate on your data, processing is scoped to your workspace and inputs are not retained for cross-customer model improvement.
RentCaddie's IP. The Service itself — including the software, user interface, designs, logos, documentation, and all underlying technology — is owned by RentCaddie and is protected by intellectual-property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service during your subscription, subject to these Terms. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
Feedback. If you send us suggestions, feature requests, or other feedback, you grant us an irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free license to use that feedback to improve the Service without obligation to you.
08 Third-party services
The Service integrates with third-party providers to deliver certain functionality. These providers have their own terms and privacy policies, which govern your use of their services when accessed through RentCaddie:
- Stripe, Inc. — payment processing, subscription billing, and Stripe Connect for rent collection;
- Supabase, Inc. — authentication, database, and file storage;
- Vercel, Inc. — hosting and edge routing;
- Resend, Inc. — transactional email delivery;
- and other providers listed in our Privacy Policy.
You are responsible for reviewing and agreeing to the terms of any third-party provider whose service you use through RentCaddie. RentCaddie is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, legality, or conduct of third-party services, and we disclaim liability arising from them to the fullest extent permitted by law.
09 Payment processing
Rent collection and other money movement features are powered by Stripe, Inc. When you enable rent collection, you are prompted to create and connect a Stripe Connect account and to accept Stripe's Connected Account Agreement and Services Agreement. Your ability to accept payments depends on Stripe's ongoing approval, KYC verification, and underwriting decisions — RentCaddie is not a party to those decisions.
You are the merchant of record for all payments collected from your tenants. You are responsible for: (a) resolving chargebacks, disputes, and refund requests initiated by your tenants; (b) reporting and remitting any applicable taxes on amounts collected; (c) maintaining any licenses or registrations required to collect rent in your jurisdiction; and (d) complying with the Stripe Restricted Businesses list.
Rent payments are routed directly from tenant to your bank via Stripe Connect — RentCaddie does not hold or process tenant funds. Payouts to your bank account are made on Stripe's standard schedule.
10 Data & privacy
Our collection, use, storage, and disclosure of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Service you acknowledge that policy and the data processing it describes.
Where you upload personal information about tenants, applicants, vendors, or other third parties, you represent and warrant that you have the legal right to do so and to permit RentCaddie to process that information on your behalf. You are the data controller and RentCaddie is the data processor with respect to such information, as those terms are used in applicable privacy laws.
If you are subject to GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, or other jurisdictional requirements that demand a separate data processing agreement (DPA), you may request our standard DPA at privacy@rentcaddie.com.
11 Termination and data export
You may cancel your subscription at any time from within the product. We may suspend or terminate your access for material breach of these Terms, fraud or abuse, non-payment lasting more than 30 days, or where required by law or to protect the safety of other users.
Data export. For 30 days following cancellation or termination, we will preserve your workspace in a read-only state and allow you to export your data through the in-product export tools. Exports include tenant records, lease documents, transaction history, and financial ledgers in standard formats (CSV, PDF, and JSON where applicable).
Deletion. After the 30-day export window closes, active Customer Content is deleted from our production systems. Encrypted, access-controlled backups containing your data age out according to the schedule described in our Privacy Policy (typically within 90 days). Certain records — including financial transactions and audit logs — may be retained longer where required by law.
Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 7, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 18) survive any termination of these Terms.
12 Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, RENTCADDIE AND ITS LICENSORS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure against every threat, compatible with every device, or that any data processed by the Service will be accurate or preserved without loss. We do not warrant that the Service, its AI features, or any document template will satisfy legal requirements in your jurisdiction or produce any particular business outcome.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. In those jurisdictions, the exclusions above apply only to the extent permitted by law.
13 Limitation of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER RENTCADDIE NOR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, FROM ALL CAUSES OF ACTION AND UNDER ALL THEORIES OF LIABILITY, WILL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES YOU PAID TO RENTCADDIE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
14 Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless RentCaddie, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any third-party claims, damages, liabilities, losses, costs, and reasonable attorneys' fees arising out of or related to: (a) your Customer Content; (b) your use of the Service in violation of these Terms or applicable law; (c) your violation of the rights of a tenant, applicant, vendor, or other third party, including fair-housing and landlord-tenant laws; or (d) any taxes or fees for which you are responsible.
15 Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Alabama, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to Section 16 (Dispute Resolution), any judicial proceeding relating to these Terms that is not subject to arbitration must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Madison County, Alabama, and each party consents to the personal jurisdiction and venue of those courts.
16 Dispute resolution; arbitration; class-action waiver
Informal resolution. Before initiating arbitration or any legal proceeding, you agree to contact us at legal@rentcaddie.com with a written description of the dispute, the relief you seek, and your contact information. The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally within 60 days.
Binding arbitration. If the parties cannot resolve the dispute informally, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures then in effect. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator in Madison County, Alabama, or by videoconference at the parties' election.
Class-action waiver. You and RentCaddie each agree that any dispute will be resolved only on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding.
Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual action in small-claims court, and either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court for claims relating to intellectual property, unauthorized access, or confidentiality.
30-day opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to legal@rentcaddie.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms.
17 Modifications to terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make a material change, we will post the updated Terms at this URL, update the "Last updated" date at the top, and provide at least 30 days' advance notice by email to the primary contact on your workspace before the change takes effect.
If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you may cancel your subscription before the effective date without penalty. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
