You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to update it as needed. Lokali Stays reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts that provide false information.
5.1. All listing content, including but not limited to photos, descriptions, pricing, and availability, is provided directly by the Lister. Lokali Stays does not independently verify property ownership, physical condition, legal right to lease, or the accuracy of any listing information.

6.2. The Verified badge is a community-generated trust indicator only. It does not constitute government identity verification, a background check, a credit check, or any form of legal, financial, or regulatory endorsement of the Lister or their listings.
6.3. Lokali Stays makes no representation or warranty regarding the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of any review used to determine Verified status.

The Platform and all content are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. Lokali Stays does not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any listing, review, or user-generated content.
