Agents and third parties are responsible for preparing the Details and fielding enquiries directly from you. Other than to facilitate introductions between you and the relevant agent when you make an enquiry about a property, we do not get involved in any further communications between you and agents and we do not participate in any part of the transaction.

    Details are hosted by us in good faith but are produced directly by agents and/or third parties and have not been verified by us. You are responsible for making your own enquiries and we provide no guarantee and accept no responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any information contained within the Details.

    You are responsible for:

    1. checking, confirming and satisfying yourself as to the accuracy of any Details;
    2. instructing a surveyor and/or obtaining legal advice before committing to any purchase; and
    3. ensuring that you act in good faith towards any other parties.

    You represent and warrant that your use of the App will comply at all times with these Terms of Use and any further terms that may apply to you in relation to your use of the App including all amendments and revisions to these Terms in accordance with Clause 4 (Changes to the Agreement) herein.

    Security

    When you register an account with us, you will be asked to provide your email address and create a password. Any password you create (including when you update your password from time to time) must be a “strong” one, comprising a combination of at least eight characters, made up of letters, numbers, and symbols. Additionally, the password must not be easily guessed (such as, for example, your date of birth). You must keep your details secure and confidential at all times. You must not disclose your password to anyone else. You should not write down your email address and password together in the same place and you must take care that nobody sees (or overhears) you when entering your details into the App.

    If you forget your password, you can click the ‘forgot password’ link under the “My Account” tab on the login page where you will be guided through the steps for replacing your password.

    If your correct login details are used to access your account, we will assume that you are the person accessing it and you will be responsible for such use. You must notify us immediately by emailing support@propertykey.bh upon discovering or suspecting that your login details or the mobile device on which you downloaded the App have been lost or stolen or that anyone else has learned your login details or that there has been any unauthorised use of your account. Until you do, your Account will not be secure. Upon contacting us, we will lock your account to prevent anyone else from using it. We will then work with you to update your password and unlock your account.
