- In a proactive way: The User can click on the link Create your Lessee Space after having displayed the connection window by clicking on the main menu on Connection > Lessee Space. After filling in all the obligatory fields, the User receives an email inviting him/her to activate his/her account by clicking on the link set up for this purpose.
- In a passive way: Upon sending a Rental Request, if the User is new on the Website, an account on the Lessee Space is automatically created. He/she will then receive an email informing him/her that the space has been created, with an invitation to log onto the site to personalise his/her password.

Registration process for the Lessor and rules relating to his/her account

An account on Owner Space is created automatically for the Lessor whose Property Offered is published for the first time on the Website. If the Lessor wishes to have another Property Offered on the reference list this will be administered via the same account.

Rules regarding User accounts

Access to personal spaces, Lessee Space or Lessor Space, is carried out by means of a personal log-in and password chosen by the User. These identifiers and passwords are personal and strictly confidential. The User is solely responsible for use of his/her account and of access to his/her personal space which will be carried out under his/her log-in and password.

The User undertakes to provide full and exact personal information, so that Paris Attitude does not have to verify the accuracy of the personal data.

This information must be substantiated on the first request of Paris Attitude. The User undertakes to alert Paris Attitude of any possible difficulty regarding access to his/her space or in a general way of any particular difficulty to the following address: mail@parisattitude.com

In the event of errors committed by the User as regards the email address provided or any other problem regarding the User's account, Paris Attitude reserves the right to block access to the Lessee Space and/or to the Lessor Space until the problem is resolved.

In the event of ID theft, the User will inform Paris Attitude by electronic means to the following address: mail@parisattitude.com within a twenty-four (24)-hour timeframe following disovery of the ID theft.

The Lessee undertakes not to create or use any other accounts than this one initially created without prior written authorisation from Paris Attitude. In default, any prior account could be cancelled.

Use of the Website

Use of the Website by the Lessee

- Searching for a Property Offered:
The Lessee seeking to rent a furnished property can consult the Website for offers published by Paris Attitude at any time. It has a search engine allowing catalogue results to be filtered and access to be gained to the main information concerning the Properties Offered, in particular: geographic location, price, description of the property with several photos, availability and the opinions left of previous lessees if applicable.

- Selection of properties offered and Rental Request:
The Lessee is able to send a Rental Request with no charge applying to Paris Attitude. He/she may attach a selection of up to five (5) of the Properties Offered. Paris Attitude undertakes to treat this request by verifying the availability of the Properties Offered selected by the Lessee, by searching other similar properties or those corresponding to the search criteria of the Lessee if necessary, and to take all necessary steps for the formation of the Rental Contract. All regulations governing rental are contained in said contract.

- Lessee Space:
The Lessee Space allow the Lessee to facilitate searches and management of furnished rentals. Lessees can manage their profile, i.e. their surname, first name, date of birth, address, email, password for connection, telephone number. These details, once registered, are used for each new Rental Request. It behoves the Lessee to verify these are exact before sending each Rental Request and if necessary, to enter their Space to correct the details. The Lessee can also follow their reservations (address of the property, status of the request).

Use of the Website by the Lessor

- Listing (referencing) a Property Offered:
the Lessor has the option of sending a request for having his/her property listed via a form on the Website. On receipt, Paris Attitude reserves the right to judge if the property presented sufficiently satisfies the policy of internal quality which has been set, based both on objective criteria of equipment, state and geographic location of the property on one hand, and on the other on subjective criteria such as decoration and style. If the property satisfies the preliminary test, a second evaluation takes place during a physical visit from a Paris Attitude representative during the course of which the agent will draw up a detailed inventory of the property and will take photos, thus allowing a property page to be created and published on the Website. To finalise the listing, the Lessor candidate and Paris Attitude sign a contract giving Paris Attitude a mandate to offer the property for rent. All rules governing this contractual relation are contained in said mandate. The mandate is signed by hand between the Lessor and the Paris Attitude agent.

- Classifying of a property in the search results:
classification of a Property Offered in the search results depends in part on the search criteria entered by the Lessor and of the score allocated to this property by Paris Attitude at the time of the search. This score varies from day to day, allowing the most pertinent results possible be brought to the Lessor. It is calculated in particular thanks to the date of the last updating of the calendar of available property, the rate of cancellations of rentals confirmed by the Lessor, and the type of mandate to which he or she is subscribed with Paris Attitude.

- De-listing a property:
Paris Attitude or the Lessor can decide at any time to stop the execution of the mandate they have concluded. Rules regarding termination are specified in said mandate. Consequently, Paris Attitude will cancel the display of the Property Offered in the search results of its Website.

- Owner Space:
The Owner Space allows the Lessor to manage his/her property or properties listed on the Website, his/her Rental Offers and profile: :
. Management of Property Offered: the Lessor can independently manage the updating of the availability of their property. The Lessor can also easily make contact with the agent in charge of his/her property to amend the list of equipment, amend the amount of rent or ask for de-listing of a property
. Management of Rental Offers: the Lessor can accept or refuse a Rental Offer from their own space.
