Linkiipal’s community guidelines help create a safe, respectful, and trustworthy marketplace where neighbors can confidently rent and share items. They apply to both Owners and Renters, from the first conversation to the final return.

1. Treat everyone with respect. Communicate courteously, including during disagreements. Harassment, discrimination, threats, bullying, intimidation, and retaliation are not allowed.
2. Be honest and authentic. Use accurate account information and complete the required verification before renting or listing. Owners must provide truthful descriptions, photos, and item conditions. Impersonation, misleading listings, and false claims undermine the community’s trust.
3. Respect other people’s property. Renters must use items responsibly, follow operating instructions, and return them on time in the condition received, allowing for normal wear from proper use. Report damage, loss, or missing components promptly. Theft, intentional damage, and deliberate non-return are prohibited.
4. Honor your booking commitments. Owners should provide the agreed item in safe, working condition and be ready for the scheduled handoff. Renters should follow pickup, delivery, and return arrangements. Communicate promptly when a problem arises and follow Linkiipal’s applicable booking policies.
5. Keep transactions on Linkiipal. Process rental payments through the platform. Do not move transactions outside Linkiipal to avoid fees or bypass its safeguards. Keep booking-related communication within the platform so there is a clear record.
6. Put safety first. Only list eligible items and use rented equipment safely and lawfully. Do not provide unsafe equipment, conceal known defects, or use items for prohibited activities.
7. Protect everyone’s privacy. Use information shared during a rental only for its intended purpose. Do not expose another member’s address, identification, contact details, or private conversations to intimidate or publicly shame them.
8. Leave fair, honest reviews. Owners and Renters can review each other after completed rentals. Reviews should reflect the actual experience. Fake reviews, manipulation, and threats involving reviews are not allowed.
9. Handle disputes in good faith. Report concerns through Linkiipal and cooperate with its review process. Provide accurate information and genuine evidence. False damage claims, unfair deposit demands, evidence tampering, extortion, and public shaming are prohibited.
10. Help protect the community. Report suspected fraud, unsafe listings, abusive behavior, or unauthorized account activity promptly. You can contact support@linkiipal.com for assistance.

Violations may result in warnings, listing removal, account restrictions, suspension, or termination, depending on the circumstances and seriousness of the conduct. Serious safety concerns or suspected fraud may require immediate action.
