Terms of Use
Effective date: November 11, 2026
Please read these Terms of Use carefully. They form a legally binding agreement between you and Bayitoo and they limit our liability and your rights. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Introduction and acceptance
1.1. These Terms of Use (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of the website https://bayitoo.com and every related page, application, feature, tool, email, newsletter, API and service (together, the "Service"), which is owned and operated by Bayitoo, whose address is [Company address, Israel] ("Bayitoo", "we", "us" or "our").
1.2. By visiting, browsing, registering for, or otherwise using the Service, or by clicking "I agree" or a similar button, you confirm that you have read, understood and accepted these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. If you use the Service on behalf of a company or other entity, you confirm that you have authority to bind that entity, and "you" includes that entity.
1.3. Some features have additional rules or fees (for example paid or featured placement). Those additional terms apply together with these Terms. If there is a conflict, the more specific terms prevail for that feature.
2. Definitions
- "Listing" means any advertisement or entry for a property for sale or rent, including text, photographs, video, floor plans, prices, location data and contact details.
- "Project" means a new-construction or development project page.
- "User" means any person who visits or uses the Service, including visitors, registered account holders, advertisers, agents, brokers and developers.
- "Advertiser" means a User who posts or manages a Listing or Project, whether an owner, tenant, agent, broker or developer.
- "User Content" means any content that a User submits, uploads, posts or transmits through the Service, including Listings, photographs, descriptions, messages, reviews and profile information.
- "Our Content" means all content we create or license, including the design, layout, text, graphics, logos, software, databases, articles, news items, compilations and the "look and feel" of the Service, excluding User Content.
3. Our role: a platform, not a broker or adviser
3.1. Bayitoo is an online platform that allows Users to search for, publish and discover property information and to contact one another. We are not a real estate broker, agent, appraiser, lawyer, mortgage lender, financial adviser, tax adviser, engineer or surveyor, and we do not provide brokerage services within the meaning of the Israeli Real Estate Brokerage Law, 1996 or any similar law.
3.2. We are not a party to any agreement, negotiation, viewing, purchase, sale, lease or other transaction between Users, and we do not guarantee that any transaction will occur or be completed. Any agreement is solely between the Users concerned. We do not collect or hold deposits, rent, purchase price or commission on behalf of Users.
3.3. We do not own, inspect, verify, endorse or guarantee any property, Listing, Project, Advertiser or User. The appearance of a Listing, Project, agent, developer, advertisement or link on the Service is not a recommendation or endorsement.
3.4. Nothing on the Service is professional, legal, financial, tax, investment, planning or engineering advice. You should obtain independent professional advice before making any decision.
4. Eligibility and accounts
4.1. You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into a binding contract to register an account, post a Listing or make a payment. The Service is not directed to children.
4.2. Registration and email verification. To create an account you must provide accurate, complete and current information and a working email address that you control. Your account is activated only after you verify your email address by following the link we send you. We may delete accounts that are not verified within a reasonable period. If you change your email address, the new address must also be verified before it replaces the old one.
4.3. You are responsible for keeping your password confidential and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately at info@bayitoo.com of any unauthorized use. We are not liable for loss caused by your failure to protect your credentials. You may not share, sell or transfer your account.
4.4. If you register as an agent, broker, developer or other professional, you represent and warrant that you hold every license, registration and permission required by law for your activities (including, where applicable, a broker's license under the Israeli Real Estate Brokerage Law, 1996), that you will keep it valid, and that you will present it truthfully. We may ask for proof and may suspend professional features until you provide it.
4.5. We may refuse registration, restrict features, or suspend or close any account at our discretion, including where we suspect a breach of these Terms, fraud, abuse or legal risk.
5. Using the Service
5.1. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable licence to access and use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial purposes of searching for property and, if you are an Advertiser, for lawfully advertising property through the Service.
5.2. Search results, maps, prices, distances, areas and other information are provided for general guidance only. Currency conversions (for example between shekels, US dollars and euros) use indicative rates that we set and update from time to time; they are estimates, not offers, and the actual transaction currency and rate may differ. Area figures may be shown in square metres or square feet and may be converted or rounded. Maps use OpenStreetMap data and may be inaccurate or out of date.
5.3. We may change, suspend, restrict or discontinue the Service or any part of it, temporarily or permanently, at any time and without liability. We do not promise uninterrupted or error-free operation, and the Service may be unavailable for maintenance, technical faults or reasons beyond our control.
6. Listings and User Content
6.1. Responsibility. You are solely responsible for the User Content you submit and for the consequences of publishing it. We do not review every item and do not verify its accuracy, legality or completeness.
6.2. Your promises. By submitting a Listing or any User Content you represent and warrant that: (a) the property exists, is genuinely available on the terms stated, and you are the owner or are authorized by the owner to advertise it; (b) all information, including price, size, rooms, floor, condition, fees, availability and photographs, is accurate, complete, current and not misleading, and any material defect, legal restriction, lien, building-permit issue or dispute known to you is disclosed; (c) you own, or have obtained all rights, licences and consents to use, every photograph, text and other material you upload, and that it does not infringe any copyright, trademark, privacy, personality or other right of anyone; (d) every person who is identifiable in your content, and every person whose contact details you provide, has consented to their publication; (e) your content complies with all applicable laws; and (f) you will remove or update a Listing promptly when the property is no longer available.
6.3. No discrimination. Listings and communications must not discriminate or express a preference or limitation based on race, religion, nationality, origin, gender, sexual orientation, personal status, age, disability, family status, parenthood, or any other characteristic protected by law, including the Israeli Prohibition of Discrimination in Products, Services and Entry into Places of Entertainment and Public Places Law, 2000 and the Equal Rights of Persons with Disabilities Law, 1998. We may remove any Listing that we believe breaches this rule.
6.4. Prohibited Listing content. You must not post: duplicate or fake Listings; properties you are not authorized to advertise; "bait" prices or availability; content unrelated to real estate; links, telephone numbers or advertising in fields not intended for them; content that is false, deceptive, defamatory, obscene, hateful, threatening, harassing or invasive of privacy; watermarks or contact details of other businesses in photographs; or any content that promotes illegal activity.
6.5. Moderation and approval. Listings and Projects may require our approval before publication, and we may approve, edit for formatting, reject, unpublish, relocate, feature, limit or remove any content at any time, with or without notice or reason, in our sole discretion. We may translate or reformat content for display. Approval is not a verification of accuracy or legality and does not make us responsible for the content.
6.6. Duration. Listings are published for a limited period that we may define and change. Expired Listings are removed from search and may be renewed by the Advertiser. We are not liable for the loss of any Listing or content.
6.7. Licence to us. You retain ownership of your User Content. You grant Bayitoo a worldwide, non-exclusive, perpetual (for content already published, and for backups and legal records), irrevocable (to the extent permitted by law), royalty-free, fully paid, transferable and sublicensable licence to host, store, reproduce, compress, resize, adapt, translate, display, distribute, publish, promote and make available your User Content (including by sharing it on our social media channels, newsletters, banners and partner channels, and in search-engine results) in connection with operating, improving and promoting the Service. You waive, to the extent permitted by law, any moral rights in respect of such use. This licence continues for a reasonable period after removal for backup and technical reasons, and indefinitely for content that others have shared or for our legal records.
6.8. Images. Images you upload may be automatically resized, compressed, converted to other formats and stripped of metadata (such as camera and location data) to improve performance and protect privacy. Do not upload images that contain personal data of third parties without their consent.
6.9. Contact between Users. If you submit an inquiry, we may pass your name, email address, telephone number and message to the Advertiser, and the Advertiser may contact you directly. Advertisers may use contact details received through the Service only to respond to the inquiry and must not add them to marketing lists or disclose them to third parties without the person's consent.
7. Prohibited conduct
You agree not to, and not to permit or assist anyone else to:
- use any robot, spider, scraper, crawler, script, automated tool or other automatic means to access, collect, copy, extract or monitor the Service, its data or its Listings (other than standard search-engine indexing that respects our robots.txt), or to build, enrich or populate any database, directory, competing service or dataset from the Service;
- copy, reproduce, republish, frame, mirror, resell, sublicense or commercially exploit any part of the Service, Our Content, or any Listing or User Content without our prior, explicit, written consent;
- bypass, disable or interfere with security, rate-limits, access controls, captchas or content-protection features, or probe, scan or test the vulnerability of the Service;
- overload or disrupt the Service, introduce viruses, malware or harmful code, or conduct denial-of-service attacks;
- harvest or collect personal data, email addresses or telephone numbers of Users, or use contact details obtained from the Service for unsolicited commercial messages, spam, scams or phishing;
- impersonate any person or entity, misrepresent your identity, licence, authority or affiliation, or create accounts using false or another person's details;
- post fraudulent, misleading or manipulated Listings, prices, reviews or inquiries, engage in price or market manipulation, or use the Service to commit fraud, money laundering or any unlawful act;
- contact other Users for purposes other than a genuine interest in the property, or harass, threaten, stalk, defame or abuse any person;
- use the Service to advertise another real estate portal or competing services, or to redirect Users away from the Service;
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or attempt to obtain the source code or database structure of the Service, except as permitted by mandatory law;
- remove or alter any copyright, trademark or other notice, or use our name, logo or brand without written permission; or
- violate any applicable law or regulation, or the rights of any third party.
Breach of this section may result in immediate removal of content, account suspension, technical blocking (including blocking of IP addresses), and legal action including claims for damages and injunctive relief. Because unauthorized copying may cause harm that is difficult to measure, you agree that we may seek injunctive relief without proof of actual damage, in addition to any other remedy.
8. Intellectual property
8.1. All rights in the Service and Our Content, including copyright, database rights, trademarks, trade names, logos, designs, software, source code, the selection, arrangement and compilation of Listings and data, and the "Bayitoo" name and logo, belong to Bayitoo or its licensors and are protected by Israeli and international law. Except for the limited licence in section 5.1, no rights are granted to you.
8.2. Our databases and the compilation of Listings represent a substantial investment by us. Any extraction or re-utilization of a substantial part of them, whether in one go or repeatedly, is prohibited.
8.3. Map data is © OpenStreetMap contributors and available under the Open Database Licence. Third-party names, logos and marks belong to their owners.
8.4. If you send us feedback, ideas or suggestions, you grant us the right to use them freely without compensation or attribution.
9. Copyright and content complaints
9.1. We respect intellectual-property rights. If you believe that content on the Service infringes your copyright, trademark, privacy or other rights, or that a Listing is inaccurate, fraudulent or discriminatory, send a written notice to info@bayitoo.com that includes: your name and contact details; a description of the protected work or right; the exact web address of the content; a statement that you hold the right or are authorized to act for the owner; a statement that the information in the notice is accurate; and your signature (electronic is acceptable).
9.2. We may remove or disable access to the content, notify the User who posted it, and provide that User with the complaint. The User may respond with a counter-notice stating the legal basis for the content. We may restore content where appropriate but are not obliged to decide disputes between third parties, and we may require a court order.
9.3. We may terminate the accounts of Users who repeatedly infringe the rights of others. Knowingly submitting a false complaint may expose you to liability.
10. Fees, payments and featured placement
10.1. Browsing and searching are free. Some features, such as additional Listings, featured or promoted placement, Project listings, banner advertising and subscriptions, may be offered for a fee. Prices, duration and conditions are shown before you pay and may change at any time; changes do not affect services you have already paid for.
10.2. Prices are stated in Israeli shekels (NIS) unless otherwise indicated and, unless stated otherwise, include or exclude value-added tax as shown at checkout. Payments are processed by third-party payment providers (currently Stripe). By paying, you agree to the provider's terms. We do not store your full card number. You are responsible for any bank or currency-conversion fees.
10.3. We may waive or change fees. We may, at our sole discretion, list content free of charge, grant promotional placement, apply discounts or set different prices for different Users. Such actions do not create any right or expectation for future treatment.
10.4. Refunds. Except where mandatory law (including the Israeli Consumer Protection Law, 1981) requires otherwise, all payments are final and non-refundable once the paid service has been activated or the content has been published, including where the Listing is later removed because you breached these Terms, the property is sold or rented, or you decide not to proceed. Where the law gives a consumer a right to cancel a distance transaction, you may exercise it by writing to info@bayitoo.com; any refund will reflect the portion of the service already provided and any cancellation fee permitted by law. Featured placement is displayed on a best-effort basis and does not guarantee any number of views, inquiries or transactions.
10.5. If a payment fails, is reversed or disputed (a "chargeback"), we may suspend or remove the related services and recover the amount and our costs. You must not initiate a chargeback for services that were delivered.
10.6. You are responsible for any taxes that apply to you. Invoices and receipts are issued in accordance with the law.
11. Communications and marketing
11.1. By registering you agree that we may send you service-related emails (for example account verification, security, password resets, inquiries, listing status, payment receipts and alerts you requested). Service emails are not marketing and cannot be turned off while you hold an account.
11.2. If you subscribe to our newsletter or consent to marketing, you agree that we may send you advertising messages by email, as permitted by section 30A of the Israeli Communications (Telecommunications and Broadcasting) Law, 1982 and other applicable law. You may withdraw consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any message or by writing to info@bayitoo.com.
11.3. Saved-search alerts are sent only if you create a saved search, and you may change their frequency or stop them in your account at any time.
12. Third-party services, links and advertising
12.1. The Service may contain links to, or integrations with, third-party websites, maps, social networks, payment providers, advertisers and services. We do not control them, are not responsible for their content, accuracy, availability, privacy practices or products, and your use of them is at your own risk and subject to their own terms.
12.2. Advertisements, sponsored placements and banners are provided by third parties or by us on their behalf. We do not endorse any advertiser or product, and you deal with advertisers at your own risk.
12.3. If you share our content on social media or use social-media features, you also agree to that platform's terms.
13. No reliance; due diligence
13.1. Property transactions are complex and carry significant financial and legal risk. Before relying on any information from the Service, or paying any money, you are strongly advised to: inspect the property in person; verify ownership and encumbrances in the Land Registry (Tabu) or the relevant registry; check planning, building permits, zoning and any liens or debts; verify the identity and licence of the other party and of any agent or broker; obtain a written contract reviewed by an independent lawyer; and use secure payment methods. Never send money to a person you have not verified, and do not pay deposits or fees before viewing the property and receiving a written agreement.
13.2. Information about Projects, including images, visualizations, prices, areas, specifications, delivery dates and amenities, is provided by developers and Advertisers, is indicative only, may change, and does not form part of any contract. Computer-generated images are artistic impressions.
13.3. We do not provide mortgage, valuation or investment services. Any estimates, calculators, price indications or market information are for general information only and are not a valuation or advice.
14. Disclaimer of warranties
14.1. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, RELIABILITY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, SECURITY, OR UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE OR VIRUS-FREE OPERATION.
14.2. WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATION THAT ANY LISTING, PROJECT, PRICE, AVAILABILITY, AREA, PHOTOGRAPH, MAP, CURRENCY RATE OR OTHER INFORMATION IS ACCURATE, LEGAL, CURRENT OR COMPLETE, OR THAT ANY USER IS WHO THEY CLAIM TO BE OR WILL PERFORM THEIR OBLIGATIONS. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT USING THE SERVICE WILL LEAD TO ANY SALE, RENTAL, INQUIRY OR RESULT.
15. Limitation of liability
15.1. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, Bayitoo, ITS OWNERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, PARTNERS, SUPPLIERS AND LICENSORS (THE "RELEASED PARTIES") SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, OPPORTUNITY, GOODWILL, SAVINGS, DATA OR REPUTATION, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
15.2. WITHOUT LIMITING THE ABOVE, THE RELEASED PARTIES ARE NOT LIABLE FOR: (A) ANY LISTING, PROJECT, USER CONTENT OR COMMUNICATION OF ANY USER OR THIRD PARTY; (B) ANY TRANSACTION, AGREEMENT, DISPUTE, FRAUD, MISREPRESENTATION, DEFECT, NON-PERFORMANCE OR LOSS ARISING BETWEEN USERS OR BETWEEN YOU AND ANY THIRD PARTY, INCLUDING ADVERTISERS, AGENTS, BROKERS AND DEVELOPERS; (C) INACCURATE OR OUTDATED INFORMATION; (D) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR DATA OR ACCOUNT, OR ANY CYBER-ATTACK, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT CAUSED BY OUR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILFUL MISCONDUCT; (E) INTERRUPTIONS, DELAYS OR FAILURES OF THE SERVICE OR OF THIRD-PARTY SERVICES, INCLUDING HOSTING, EMAIL, PAYMENT, MAP AND SOCIAL-MEDIA PROVIDERS; OR (F) EVENTS BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL.
15.3. IF, DESPITE THE ABOVE, WE ARE FOUND LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY REASON, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (I) THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, AND (II) ONE HUNDRED NEW ISRAELI SHEKELS (NIS 100).
15.4. Any claim relating to the Service must be brought within one (1) year after the cause of action arose, to the extent the law permits a shorter limitation period; otherwise it is barred.
15.5. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including mandatory consumer rights. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you; in that case our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted.
16. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Released Parties from and against any claim, demand, action, loss, liability, damage, penalty, cost and expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: your use or misuse of the Service; your User Content or Listings; your breach of these Terms or any law; your infringement of any third-party right; any transaction or dispute between you and another User or third party; or any claim by a person whose data you submitted without authority. We may assume the exclusive defence of any matter, and you will cooperate with us.
17. Disputes between Users
If you have a dispute with another User, you will resolve it directly with that User. You release the Released Parties from all claims and damages, known and unknown, arising from such disputes. We may, but are not obliged to, share information with authorities or the other party in connection with a dispute as permitted by our Privacy Policy and the law.
18. Suspension and termination
18.1. You may stop using the Service and close your account at any time through your account or by writing to info@bayitoo.com.
18.2. We may suspend, restrict or terminate your access, remove content, and block devices or IP addresses at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have breached these Terms or the law, harmed another User or us, or for operational, security or legal reasons. No refund is due for fees paid where we terminate for your breach.
18.3. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including sections 6.7, 7, 8, 10, 13 to 17, 21 and 22.
19. Privacy and data protection
Our collection and use of personal data is described in our Privacy Policy. By using the Service you acknowledge that you have read it. If you provide personal data about another person (for example, an owner or tenant), you confirm that you are entitled to do so.
20. Changes to the Service and these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated version on the Service with a new effective date and, for material changes, may notify you by email or a notice on the Service. Changes apply from the date stated and do not apply retroactively to disputes that arose before. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Service. It is your responsibility to review the Terms periodically.
21. Governing law and jurisdiction
21.1. These Terms and any dispute relating to them or the Service are governed exclusively by the laws of the State of Israel, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.
21.2. The competent courts of Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any such dispute, and you consent to that jurisdiction and waive any objection of inconvenient forum. Before commencing proceedings, you agree to first contact us at info@bayitoo.com and attempt in good faith to resolve the matter for at least thirty (30) days.
21.3. To the extent permitted by law, any claim must be brought in your individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective or representative action.
21.4. Mandatory consumer-protection rights of your country of residence, where they cannot be waived, remain unaffected.
22. General provisions
22.1. Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and replace all prior understandings.
22.2. Severability. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the remaining provisions remain in force.
22.3. No waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of it.
22.4. Assignment. You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations without our written consent. We may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, to any affiliate or successor, including in a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.
22.5. Force majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including war, hostilities, terrorism, security events, natural disaster, epidemic, power or telecommunication failures, labour disputes, government action or failures of third-party providers.
22.6. Languages. The Service may be offered in several languages for convenience. If there is any inconsistency between language versions, the English version prevails, to the extent permitted by law.
22.7. Notices. We may give you notice by posting on the Service or by email to the address in your account. You may contact us at the details below. Records kept by us are admissible evidence of communications and transactions.
