2. Description of Service

Homier provides software tools for managing private vacation home sharing among trusted individuals. We are a coordination and calendar management platform, not a marketplace or booking agent.

  • Invitation-only access control systems
  • Calendar and booking coordination features
  • Communication tools between known parties
  • Optional SMS notifications for booking activity (requires phone verification and explicit consent)

Important: Homier is a neutral software provider. We do not vet guests, supervise visits, provide insurance coverage, or intervene in disputes. We are not a party to any agreements between property owners and guests. All arrangements, responsibilities, and agreements are handled directly between users.

3. User Accounts and Eligibility
