Terms of Service

Welcome to StreamerHomes.com (the "Platform"). StreamerHomes is operated by Brighter Ecommerce LLC, doing business as StreamerHomes and, from time to time, referred to herein as the Meeting Platform ("MP"). 

StreamerHomes was created to help connect video game streaming content creators who are interested in shared or live‐in housing arrangements. Having observed the growth of streamer houses and collaborative living arrangements around tournaments and content creation, we created this Platform to explore whether such housing can become a broader, community‐driven option. The Platform also enables Users to post for virtual collaboration partners ("Streammates") and to post in search of brand or product sponsorships, in each case as further described in these Terms.

By accessing or using StreamerHomes.com, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Platform.

- "Host" means a User who posts or lists a room, home, or other living space.
- "Seeker" means a User who views, responds to, or communicates regarding housing or room
 listings.
- "Listing" means any post, description, image, message, or other content relating to housing or room availability.
- "Streammate Post" means a post created by a User for the purpose of finding another User to engage in virtual collaboration, including but not limited to co-streaming, co-op gameplay, screen-share sessions, or other remote content creation activities.
