You retain ownership of any content you create within the Service (notes, board names, etc.). By using the Service, you grant us a limited license to store, display, and process your content solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you.

Property listing data imported from third-party websites remains subject to those websites' terms of service and intellectual property rights.

10. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, or that any property information displayed is accurate, complete, or current.
