Terms of Use

By accessing or using the SPEEDHOME website, mobile applications, and related services (collectively, the “Platform” or “Services”) provided by Speedrent Technology Sdn Bhd (Company No. 201601005661 (1176587-M)) (“SPEEDHOME,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), you, the User (“User,” “you,” “your”), signify your absolute and unconditional acceptance of and agreement to be bound by these Terms of Use (“Terms”). If you do not agree to these Terms in their entirety, you are prohibited from using the Services.

1. Our Services and SPEEDHOME’s Role

1.1. SPEEDHOME provides an online Platform that primarily functions as a venue to connect Landlords and Tenants for the purpose of renting residential properties in Malaysia. Our Services may include property listing facilitation, communication tools, digital tenancy agreement templates (“SPEEDSIGN”), access to optional Software-as-a-Service products for Landlords (“SaaS Product”), facilitation of access to landlord insurance products (for which SPEEDHOME acts as a licensed insurance agency/agent), optional “Homerunner” support services, and facilitation of rental payments through our Platform.

1.2. **SPEEDHOME’s Limited Role:** You acknowledge and agree that SPEEDHOME’s fundamental role is that of a technology platform provider and facilitator. For its basic Platform services, SPEEDHOME does not act as an “estate agent” or “property manager” as defined under the Valuers, Appraisers, Estate Agents and Property Managers Act 1981 (Act 242) or any other applicable law. We do not undertake property viewings (unless as part of an optional, subscribed Homerunner service with a defined logistical scope), negotiate tenancy terms on your behalf, or manage properties in a discretionary capacity unless such functions are explicitly part of a distinct, optional “Subscribed Service” (as defined below) chosen and paid for by you, and only to the extent specified in the terms of that Subscribed Service.

1.3. **Tenancy Agreements:** While SPEEDHOME is named as a party in its standard Tenancy Agreement template for the purpose of facilitating certain Platform functionalities and providing Subscribed Services chosen by the Landlord, SPEEDHOME’s involvement as a party is strictly limited to the obligations and roles expressly defined for SPEEDHOME within that Tenancy Agreement, particularly concerning the operation of the Platform and the delivery of any such Subscribed Services. For all other aspects of the Landlord-Tenant relationship, SPEEDHOME is not a principal party and assumes no fiduciary duties or agency responsibilities beyond those explicitly undertaken for specific Subscribed Services. You agree that SPEEDHOME’s inclusion as a party to the Tenancy Agreement is primarily for operational efficacy of the Platform and Subscribed Services and does not automatically confer upon SPEEDHOME the general roles or responsibilities of an estate agent or property manager.

2. Optional Subscribed Services and Fees

2.1. **Subscribed Services:** Landlords may opt to purchase or subscribe to additional services, including but not limited to our SaaS Product, enhanced Homerunner services, or specific support packages (“Subscribed Services”). The specific features, scope, and fees for Subscribed Services are detailed at the point of subscription or purchase and are governed by these Terms and any additional terms specific to that Subscribed Service.

2.2. **Insurance:** Landlord insurance plans may be offered through our Platform. If a Landlord purchases an insurance plan, our SaaS Product may be included as a complementary component, subject to the terms of the insurance package.

2.3. **Service Fees:**

a. **SaaS Product Fee:** If you subscribe to our SaaS Product, you agree to pay the specified annual subscription fee (e.g., RM799 per year plus applicable taxes, subject to change with notice).

b. **Rental Processing Fee:** For all rental payments processed through the Platform, a Rental Processing Fee (currently 1.88% of the rental amount plus applicable taxes, subject to change with notice) will be charged to the Landlord or as otherwise agreed. This non-refundable fee is for the use of the payment facilitation technology provided by our Platform and covers associated third-party payment gateway costs, transaction processing, and platform maintenance for this function. SPEEDHOME is not liable for any delays or failures in payment processing attributable to third-party payment gateways or banking systems.

2.4. **Fee Decoupling:** You acknowledge that fees for Subscribed Services or specific technology features (like the Rental Processing Fee) are for those distinct, chosen services or technology usage. These fees are, where applicable, intended by SPEEDHOME to be decoupled from the core rental transaction facilitated by the basic Platform features.

2.5. **Payment Terms:** All fees are due and payable in accordance with the billing terms in effect at the time. SPEEDHOME may use third-party payment processors, and you agree to their terms. Late payments may incur additional charges or suspension/termination of Services at SPEEDHOME’s sole discretion. All fees are non-refundable unless expressly stated otherwise by SPEEDHOME in writing or required by mandatory applicable law. SPEEDHOME reserves the right to change its fees or introduce new charges upon reasonable notice.

3. User Accounts and Obligations

3.2. **Account Security:** You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You must notify SPEEDHOME immediately of any unauthorized use or security breach. SPEEDHOME is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this section.

3.3. **User Conduct and Responsibilities:** You agree to use the Services lawfully and in accordance with these Terms. You shall not:

a. Violate any applicable laws, regulations, or third-party rights.

b. Submit false, misleading, defamatory, or offensive content.

c. Use the Platform to harass, abuse, or harm another person.

d. Interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Platform or Services.

e. Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Platform or its related systems.

f. Scrape, data mine, or otherwise extract data from the Platform without SPEEDHOME’s prior written consent.

3.4. **Landlord Obligations:** Landlords are solely responsible for: ensuring they have the legal right to rent properties listed; the accuracy, legality, and completeness of their listings; the safety, habitability, and condition of their properties; compliance with all housing laws and regulations; and their conduct towards Tenants.

3.5. **Tenant Obligations:** Tenants are solely responsible for: verifying the suitability of properties; fulfilling their obligations under any Tenancy Agreement, including timely rent payment; and their conduct towards Landlords.

4. Intellectual Property

4.2. **User-Generated Content:** You grant SPEEDHOME a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, sublicensable, and transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform, and display any content, information, or materials you upload, submit, store, send, or receive on or through the Services (“User-Generated Content”) for any purpose related to the provision, promotion, and improvement of the Services and SPEEDHOME’s business, without any compensation to you. You warrant that you own or have the necessary rights to submit User-Generated Content and that it does not infringe any third-party rights.

7.3. THE LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN SPEEDHOME AND YOU.
