MAYA Terms of Service
Version 2
Effective Date: September 28, 2026
Last Updated: September 28, 2026
The short version
- MAYA is for hotels and hospitality businesses, not consumers. If you set up an account, connect or subscribe a property, or switch one to live, you confirm you can bind your business to these Terms.
- You control the rules, floors, ceilings and prices, including the starter rules MAYA sets up for you. MAYA runs them and, once you switch off simulation, sends the resulting rates to your property management system automatically. Every rate is your decision and your responsibility, including compliance with your channel contracts and the law.
- We do not guarantee revenue, occupancy, bookings or any other result. Simulations and previews are estimates.
- MAYA depends on your PMS and other third parties. We are not liable for their failures or for rates that arrive late, wrong or not at all. Keep an eye on your PMS and channels.
- Subscriptions renew automatically, trials become paid unless you cancel first, and fees are not refundable except as the Terms say. If your PMS shows more rooms than you pay for, we tell you and then raise your bill to match. Our payment processor holds your card details, and we may charge the card for any property on your account.
- Disconnecting does not delete your data. Deletion is on written request. We may delete imported data for a property that never pays after 180 days without use.
- Our total liability is capped at what you paid us in the three months before the problem, and we are never liable for lost revenue or lost bookings.
- Disputes go to individual arbitration. No class actions and no jury trials, and claims must be brought within one year.
This summary is for convenience only. It is not part of the Terms and does not change or limit them.
1. Agreement and Acceptance
2. Definitions
In these Terms:
- “Authorized User” means any individual who accesses the Service under your account or with your credentials, including your employees, contractors, owners and management company personnel.
- “Connected System” means a property management system, channel manager or other third-party platform that you connect to the Service, for example Cloudbeds, Mews or ThinkReservations.
- “Configuration” means everything that determines what the Service calculates or publishes for you, including pricing rules and their conditions, floors and ceilings (“guardrails”), manual prices, base prices, room type settings (including which room types count as rooms), closed periods, rooms out of service, and whether a property is in simulation or live.
- “Customer Data” means data that you or your Authorized Users submit to the Service, Imported Data, and your Configuration. It does not include Aggregated Data or Usage Data.
- “Imported Data” means data the Service retrieves from a Connected System, such as reservations, room types, rate plans, availability, property details, and taxes and fees.
- “Property” means each hotel or other lodging property connected to, or subscribed under, your account.
- “Published Rate” means any rate or price that the Service sends to a Connected System, and any rate that results from it on any sales channel.
- “Suggestion” means any starter rule, guardrail suggestion, recommendation, finding, classification, forecast, simulation, preview, explanation or other output that the Service proposes or displays.
- “Third-Party Service” means any product or service not provided by MHS, including Connected Systems, online travel agencies and other sales channels, payment processors, hosting and email providers.
- “Fees” means all amounts payable for the Service.
“Including” means “including without limitation.” Headings are for convenience only.
3. The Service
4. Your Prices Are Your Responsibility
- your agreements with online travel agencies, channel managers, wholesalers, franchisors, brands, management companies, owners and lenders, including rate parity, most-favored-nation, minimum rate and inventory obligations;
- laws on price display, advertised and total pricing, mandatory fees, taxes, advertising and consumer protection;
- price gouging and price control laws, including those that restrict lodging rate increases during a declared state of emergency or disaster. The Service does not monitor emergency declarations or changes in law and will not adjust your rates for them. Where the law requires it, you must change your rates, for example by deleting or changing the rules that set them, setting manual prices or changing rates directly in your Connected System, and you may ask MHS in writing at info@modern-hospitality-solutions.com to return a Property to simulation mode. Turning a rule off or returning a Property to simulation mode stops further changes but does not lower rates already sent (Section 4.5), rules that fire later still apply on top of a manual price, and the Service can replace a rate you change directly in your Connected System at any time, for example when its own price for that night changes or when that night comes within the range of dates the Service sends. You remain responsible for your rates until they comply;
- competition and antitrust laws. You will not use the Service to share competitively sensitive information with, or to coordinate prices with, any competitor; and
- anti-discrimination, privacy and tax laws.
5. No Guarantee of Results
6. Connected Systems and Other Third Parties
- the availability, performance, security, accuracy, acts or omissions of any Third-Party Service;
- outages, maintenance, rate limits, errors, API changes, deprecations or suspensions of any Connected System, or the end of MHS's access to one;
- rates that are delayed, not sent, sent more than once, rejected, partly applied, overwritten, rounded, converted or applied incorrectly by a Connected System or sales channel;
- data supplied by a Connected System, including its accuracy and completeness; or
- how any sales channel displays, distributes or prices your inventory.
7. Fees, Trials, Renewal and Payment
- store it, and charge it without further authorization for all Fees, taxes and other amounts due under these Terms, including renewals, trial conversions, room count changes and prorations, for every Property on your account;
- show it again to your Authorized Users and offer it for use when any other Property on your account is subscribed; and
- verify it when you subscribe and at any time afterwards, including by zero-amount or temporary authorization checks.
You must keep your payment details current. This authorization continues until every subscription on your account has ended and every amount due has been paid. You will reimburse MHS for any charge reversed because that representation was untrue.
8. Your Data
- Disconnecting. Disconnecting a Connected System stops the Service from syncing with it and sending rates to it. It does not delete Customer Data. Except as the next bullet says, MHS keeps Customer Data after a disconnection or cancellation so that a Property can reconnect or resubscribe without being set up again.
- Properties that never pay. If no Fee has ever been paid for a Property (a trial that ends without payment counts as never paid) and nobody has used the Service for it for at least 180 days, MHS may delete the Imported Data for that Property, data derived from it, its Connected System connection and stored credentials, and invitations nobody accepted. MHS may keep the Property's account record, settings and Configuration so it does not have to be set up again, although you may need to reconnect your Connected System. If nobody creates or signs in to a MAYA account to claim a newly connected Property before its connection link expires, MHS may remove that connection, its stored credentials and the Property record at any time after the link expires. MHS has no obligation to keep any of this data for any period.
- Deletion on request. The Service does not let customers delete a Property or its Imported Data. You can remove rules, manual prices and similar settings in the Service, but to have a Property's Customer Data deleted, send a written request to info@modern-hospitality-solutions.com from the email address of a Hotel Admin or General Manager of the Property. Once MHS has verified the request, it will delete or de-identify that Customer Data within 90 days. Deletion is permanent, ends the Service for the Property without a refund, and means a later reconnection starts from scratch.
- What MHS may keep. Even after deletion, MHS may keep database backups until they expire, 7 days after each is taken (Section 8.7); billing, tax and transaction records; records of acceptance of these Terms, audit logs and correspondence; anything needed to establish, exercise or defend legal claims or required by law; and Aggregated Data and Usage Data.
- No backup service. The Service is not a backup of your Connected Systems, and MHS has no obligation to export or return Customer Data except where the law requires it.
9. Acceptable Use
You will not, and will not allow anyone else to:
- copy, modify, or create derivative works of the Service;
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise try to discover the source code, algorithms, models or rule logic of the Service, except to the extent the law allows this despite this restriction;
- sell, resell, sublicense, rent, lease or provide the Service to anyone else, or use it as a service bureau, except that a management company may use it for the Properties on your account that it manages;
- use the Service, or any information from it, to build, train, benchmark or improve a competing product or service, or to copy its features, rules or design;
- run or publish benchmark, performance or comparative tests of the Service without MHS's prior written consent;
- scrape or use automated means to access the Service other than through interfaces MHS provides for that purpose, or probe, scan or test its vulnerabilities;
- interfere with or disrupt the Service, or get around its security, access controls, rate limits, user limits, billing or room count measurement;
- upload malware or anything harmful;
- share one login between individuals, or create accounts with false information or by automated means;
- connect a Connected System or Property you are not authorized to connect; or
- use the Service in breach of any law or anyone's rights, or to publish prices that are unlawful, deceptive or discriminatory.
10. Intellectual Property
11. Suspension
MHS may suspend all or part of the Service, for one or more Properties, immediately and without liability if: an amount is overdue; you breach Section 9 or any other part of these Terms; your use creates a security risk or may harm MHS, a Connected System, a Third-Party Service or anyone else, or expose any of them to liability; a Connected System provider requires it or ends MHS's access; or the law requires it. MHS will try to tell you when it reasonably can. Section 4.5 applies to any suspension, and you remain responsible for managing your rates while it lasts.
12. Term and Termination
13. Confidentiality
Each party will use reasonable care to protect the other's non-public information that it receives in connection with the Service and is marked or would reasonably be understood as confidential, and will use it only for purposes of these Terms. MHS's confidential information includes the non-public features, logic, pricing terms and security of the Service. This does not cover information that is or becomes public through no fault of the recipient, that the recipient already had or independently developed, or that it lawfully received from someone else. A party may disclose confidential information where the law requires, after giving notice where it lawfully can. Customer Data is handled under Section 8 and our Privacy Policy.
14. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SERVICE, ALL SUGGESTIONS, PUBLISHED RATES, SIMULATIONS AND OTHER OUTPUT, AND ALL DOCUMENTATION AND SUPPORT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITH ALL FAULTS. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MHS, ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS AND SUPPLIERS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND ANY WARRANTY ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. MHS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE OR ERROR-FREE; THAT RATES WILL BE CALCULATED AS YOU INTEND OR DELIVERED TO ANY CONNECTED SYSTEM OR CHANNEL; THAT ANY DATA WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE OR PRESERVED; THAT ERRORS WILL BE CORRECTED; OR THAT THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR NEEDS OR PRODUCE ANY RESULT. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION FROM MHS CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS.
15. Limitation of Liability
16. Indemnification
17. Disputes, Arbitration and Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES DISPUTES TO BE RESOLVED BY BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, AND IT WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO TAKE PART IN A CLASS ACTION.
