Terms of Service
Last updated: September 2026
1. Who we are
guard.lease is operated by Dzmitry Hutaryan (JDG), a sole proprietorship registered in Poland, based in Warsaw, Poland. You can reach us at support@guard.lease.
2. What the service does
You upload a Dutch residential rental contract. An AI model reads it and sets each clause against the text of Dutch housing law — Burgerlijk Wetboek Boek 7, Titel 4, and the rent rules of the Besluit huurprijzen woonruimte. The result is a report that lists clauses which appear to conflict with the statute, clauses whose lawfulness depends on facts the contract does not state, and a suggested next step for each.
3. Not legal advice
The report is information, not legal advice. We are not a law firm, no lawyer takes part in producing a report, and using guard.lease creates no lawyer–client relationship. The report describes what the law says and what your contract says. It does not decide your case, and it cannot take into account anything outside the contract text.
Before you act on a finding — before you withhold a payment, give notice, or start a procedure — have it checked by Het Juridisch Loket, the Huurcommissie, a local huurteam, or a lawyer.
4. Accuracy and limits
The analysis is automated and can be wrong. It can miss a clause, misread one, or flag one that is in fact lawful. It reads the statute as it stood on the date shown on the home page; the law and the case law change, and a report does not follow them after that date.
It works from the contract text alone. Whether a rule applies to you can depend on facts the report cannot know — when the contract was signed, how many WWS points the dwelling scores, who the tenant is. We give no guarantee that a report is complete, correct, or up to date.
5. Your side of it
By uploading a contract you confirm that you are a party to it or otherwise entitled to have it analysed, and that you are at least 18. Do not upload documents you have no right to share. What you do with the report is your decision and your responsibility.
6. Payments and refunds
The number of findings, the severity of each, and one finding in full are free. The full report is a one-time purchase for the contract you uploaded, with no subscription. The price, including VAT, is shown on the report page before you pay and again at checkout.
Payments are handled by Creem (Armitage Labs OÜ, Tallinn, Estonia), which sells the report to you as merchant of record and issues your receipt. Creem's buyer terms apply to the payment itself.
The full report is digital content delivered the moment your payment completes. By paying you ask for immediate delivery and acknowledge that, once the report is unlocked, the 14-day right of withdrawal no longer applies. If the report is not delivered because of a fault on our side, write to us within 14 days and we will arrange a refund through Creem.
7. How long a report is available
A report is kept for a limited time and then deleted, together with everything the analysis produced. The periods are stated in the Privacy Policy and on the report page. Keep the report link: it is the only way to open the report. We hold no account and no e-mail address for you, so we cannot recover a link you have lost.
8. Liability
To the extent the law allows:
- We are not liable for loss that follows from acting, or not acting, on a report — including rent or deposit not recovered, a tenancy lost or not ended, penalties, legal costs, or any indirect or consequential loss.
- Our total liability for anything arising from the service is limited to the amount you paid for the report concerned.
Nothing in these terms limits liability for intent or gross negligence, or any right you have as a consumer that cannot be limited by agreement.
9. The service and these terms
The terms in force when you pay are the ones that apply to that purchase. We may change these terms for future purchases; the date at the top of this page says when they last changed. We may also change or discontinue the service, but a report you have paid for stays available for the period stated when you bought it. We may refuse or stop an analysis that misuses the service, for example automated bulk uploads.
10. Your contract and our report
Your contract stays yours. The report is for your own use in connection with that tenancy; you may share it with anyone advising you. Do not resell it or present it to others as legal advice.
11. Law and disputes
Dutch law governs these terms. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory rules of the country where you live. Disputes go to the Dutch courts, unless the law entitles you to bring them before the courts of your own country.
