(“HomeThingy,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), governing your access to and use of the HomeThingy website (homethingy.com), mobile application, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).
By creating an account, accessing the Services, or clicking “I Agree” or Signing in, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms, including the arbitration and governing law provisions in Section 15, and by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Changes take effect 7 days after notice is provided, and your continued use of the Services after that period constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.

2.PRIVACY
Your privacy matters to us. Our Privacy Policy, available at homethingy.com/privacy, explains how we collect, use, store, and share your personal data, including addresses you search, account information, and payment details. By using the Services, you consent to the data practices described in our Privacy Policy. Where you are located in India, we process personal data in accordance with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, and applicable rules issued thereunder.
3.ELIGIBILITY AND LOCATION
You must be at least 18 years old and capable of forming a legally binding contract to use the Services. HomeThingy is operated from India. We make no representation that the Services, or the accuracy of Reports, are appropriate or available for use in every location. If you access the Services from outside India, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws, including data transfer and import/export regulations.
4.DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES
HomeThingy uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to analyze publicly available data — including public records, census data, listing databases, and crime statistics — to generate Reports covering estimated market price, price forecasts, safety scores, infrastructure quality, demographics, and related neighborhood insights for properties you search.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Services for your personal or internal business use. Some features require registration and, for Premium Subscriptions, payment of applicable fees. We may add, modify, or discontinue features of the Services at any time, as described in Section 10.
5.AI-GENERATED CONTENT; NOT PROFESSIONAL ADVICE
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. REPORTS ARE GENERATED USING AUTOMATED, AI-DRIVEN ANALYSIS OF THIRD-PARTY DATA AND ARE PROVIDED FOR GENERAL INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY.
Price estimates, price forecasts, safety scores, infrastructure ratings, and all other Report content are statistical estimates and predictions. They are not appraisals, valuations, surveys, or guarantees of any kind, and actual market conditions, prices, safety, or infrastructure quality may differ materially from what a Report indicates.
Reports do not constitute, and should not be relied upon as, financial advice, investment advice, legal advice, real estate brokerage advice, or a substitute for professional inspection, appraisal, title search, or legal due diligence. Before making any decision to purchase, sell, finance, or invest in a property, you should independently verify all information and consult qualified professionals, including a licensed real estate agent, appraiser, inspector, and legal counsel.
Third-Party Data may be incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate, as it is sourced from public records and third-party providers that we do not control and cannot independently verify in every case. HomeThingy disclaims any obligation to update Reports to reflect subsequent changes in the underlying data.
6.REGISTRATION AND ACCOUNT RESTRICTIONS
To access certain features, you must register for an account. You agree to (a) provide accurate, current, and complete registration information, and (b) promptly update such information to keep it accurate. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us immediately at support@homethingy.com if you suspect unauthorized use of your account.
You agree not to: (a) create an account using false information or impersonate another person; (b) share your account credentials with third parties; (c) use the Services to build a competing product; (d) reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code or underlying models of the Services; (e) use bots, scrapers, or automated tools to systematically extract Report data; (f) circumvent usage limits on the Free Tier; or (g) use the Services for any unlawful purpose.
7.RULES OF CONDUCT
In connection with your use of the Services, you must not: post or transmit content that is unlawful, threatening, harassing, defamatory, or infringes any third party's intellectual property or privacy rights; upload viruses or malicious code; interfere with or disrupt the Services or servers; harvest data about other Users; use the Services for any commercial resale of Report data without our written consent; or attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the Services, other accounts, or related systems.

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, including its formation, interpretation, breach, or termination, will first be addressed through good-faith negotiation.
