By accessing or using our platform, you acknowledge and agree to abide by these Terms and Conditions, alongside all relevant supplementary policies and agreements.
1.2 Definitions & Interpretations
Section II: Registration, Account Creation & Management
2.1 Eligibility & Registration
To register, users must be 18+ years old and legally permitted to operate within the Spanish real estate sector.
PropertyList.es may verify registrations and request supporting documentation.
Account Acceptance & Agreement
By creating an account, clicking “I agree”, or otherwise using the Platform after being shown these Terms, you accept these Terms and confirm you have authority to bind the entity you represent. PropertyList.es records and retains users’ acceptance (including the version of Terms accepted, user identity and timestamp). By creating an account or using the Platform, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, you must refrain from creating an account or using the Platform.
2.2 Account Authorisation
By registering on PropertyList.es, you represent and warrant that you have received express authorisation from the estate agency or company you represent to open and operate an account on this platform. You acknowledge that any account created without such authorisation constitutes a breach of these Terms, and you assume full responsibility for any claims, damages or losses arising from such unauthorised actions. In the event that an account is found to have been created without proper authorisation, PropertyList.es reserves the right to immediately suspend or terminate the account without prior notice. Furthermore, PropertyList.es shall not be held liable for any claims or losses arising from the unauthorised use of an agency’s name.
2.3 Account Security & Integrity
Members are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account credentials, including passwords, and for all activities that occur under their account, whether authorised or unauthorised. Members must promptly notify PropertyList.es of any unauthorised access or suspected security breaches. Failure to do so may result in the member being held liable for any consequences arising from such activities.
2.4 Right to Refuse Service
PropertyList.es reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to refuse, suspend, or terminate access to its services to any individual or entity, for any reason or no reason, at any time, without prior notice or explanation subject to mandatory consumer protections. This includes, but is not limited to, the refusal of listings, removal of existing listings, suspension of accounts, or denial of platform access. PropertyList.es is not obligated to provide any justification for such actions and shall not be liable for any consequences arising from the exercise of this right.
Section III: Content, Listings & Proprietary Rights
3.1 Listing Protocols & Compliance
All property listings must comply with regional real estate laws and regulations and must be authorised by the property owner. PropertyList.es reserves the right to review and audit listings for compliance. If a listing is found to be non-compliant, PropertyList.es may, at its sole discretion, take one or more of the following actions:
Members agree to cooperate fully with any compliance audits or investigations conducted by PropertyList.es.
3.2 Content Usage & Rights Allocation
Members retain ownership of the content they upload to PropertyList.es. However, by uploading content, members grant PropertyList.es a perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, display, and promote the content for marketing and operational purposes. This license remains in effect even after a listing is removed by the member, unless the member formally requests in writing to revoke the license for future promotional use. PropertyList.es will honour such requests within 30 days of receipt, but previously published promotional materials may not be retracted.
3.3 User-Generated Content & Liability
Members are solely responsible for ensuring that all content they upload, including property details, images, and descriptions, is accurate, up-to-date, and does not infringe on any third-party intellectual property rights (e.g., copyrighted images, trademarks, or other proprietary materials). Members must obtain all necessary permissions and licences before uploading any third-party content. PropertyList.es is not liable for any claims arising from the unauthorised use of third-party intellectual property. Members agree to indemnify and hold harmless PropertyList.es, its officers, employees, agents, and affiliates from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including legal fees) arising out of their use of the platform or the uploading of any content that infringes upon third-party intellectual property rights or violates applicable laws or regulations.
3.4 API & XML Feed Subscriptions
PropertyList.es may integrate with third-party services such as payment processors, CRM systems, or MLS databases. Users acknowledge that PropertyList.es is not responsible for the performance, security, or data handling of these services.
XML Feed Subscription
The XML Feed Subscription is an optional, paid integration intended for technically skilled members. By subscribing:
You are responsible for installing, configuring, and maintaining the feed.
PropertyList.es provides documentation and automated endpoints but does not provide on-site installation, bespoke integration, or custom development.
Use of AI-generated code, third-party plugins, or external consultants is at your own risk. PropertyList.es is not liable for errors, data loss, or misconfigurations caused by subscriber actions.
Support & Service Levels
Basic documentation and email support are included. Additional development or troubleshooting is treated as paid professional services.
Ownership & License
Members retain ownership of their content. Enabling the feed grants PropertyList.es a licence to distribute the data as needed to provide the service. Resale or redistribution to third parties requires a separate written licence.
Refunds & Termination
Feeds are non-refundable except when PropertyList.es is demonstrably at fault. Access may be suspended or terminated for abuse, security issues, or non-payment. Subscribers must maintain backups of all imported or replicated data. Refunds may be given in credits at PropertyList.es’ disgresion.
Changes
PropertyList.es may modify feed formats or endpoints, providing at least 30 days’ notice for backward-incompatible changes.
Limitation of Liability
PropertyList.es’s liability is subject to Section VIII of these Terms.
XML Feed — Operational Terms & License
(a) Feed Spec & Access. PropertyList.es will publish a versioned XML feed specification and issue access credentials (API key) to subscribers. Subscribers must secure their API keys and are solely responsible for key confidentiality; compromised keys may be revoked.
(b) Rate Limits, Monitoring & Logs. PropertyList.es may enforce reasonable rate limits and require logs, diagnostics or evidence to investigate issues. Continued abuse, excessive usage or behaviour that threatens platform stability may result in temporary suspension of feed access.
(c) Installation & Support. Subscribers are responsible for installing, configuring, testing and maintaining the feed on their systems. PropertyList.es supplies documentation and basic email support. Custom integration, on-site configuration, bespoke development or troubleshooting beyond documentation is not available.
(d) License & Redistribution. Members retain ownership of listing content. By enabling the XML feed you grant PropertyList.es a limited licence to distribute the member’s data for feed delivery. Subscribers may not re-sell, re-syndicate, sublicense or provide the feed to third parties without a separate written licence from PropertyList.es.
(e) Backups & Data Loss. Subscribers must maintain backups of any data imported from the feed. PropertyList.es is not liable for loss of subscriber copies or derivative data.
(f) Changes & Notice. Backward-incompatible changes to feed formats or endpoints will be announced in writing at least 30 days in advance; PropertyList.es will make reasonable efforts to support prior formats during transition.
(g) Liability. Subject to applicable law, PropertyList.es’s liability in relation to the XML Feed is limited as set out in Section IX. Subscribers accept the operational risks of self-installation and third-party integrations.
3.5 Intellectual Property Rights
All intellectual property rights, including but not limited to trademarks, logos, designs, software, and proprietary technology associated with PropertyList.es, are the exclusive property of PropertyList.es or its licensors. Users are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access and use the platform in accordance with these Terms & Conditions.

Section IV: Data Management, Privacy & Cybersecurity
4.1 Data Usage, Retention & Deletion
PropertyList.es collects and processes personal data to provide services, comply with legal obligations, and support legitimate operational purposes. Users have the right to access, correct, and request deletion of their personal data, subject to mandatory legal obligations and justified business needs (for example: fraud prevention, tax, accounting, or contractual records).
Upon account closure, PropertyList.es will delete personal data that is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected in a timely manner and in accordance with our Data Retention Schedule (published in the Privacy Policy). Certain categories of data may be retained for longer where required by law or necessary for legitimate business purposes; such retention periods and legal bases are set out in the Privacy Policy and Data Retention Schedule.
In the event of a personal data breach affecting user data, PropertyList.es will notify the relevant supervisory authority without undue delay and, where required by law, notify affected users within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach (when feasible).
PropertyList.es acts as data controller for content uploaded by members, and as data processor for personal data processed on behalf of customers where applicable. A standard Data Processing Agreement is available on request or via our Info Hub and will apply where parties execute it. The DPA describes processing purposes, security measures, subprocessors, international transfers (if any), and the obligations of each party.
4.2 Cybersecurity Measures
PropertyList.es employs state-of-the-art security protocols, including Cloudflare and other advanced measures, to protect user data. However, no system is entirely immune to risks, and absolute security cannot be guaranteed. Users are encouraged to take their own precautions to safeguard their accounts, such as using strong, unique passwords, enabling two-factor authentication where available, and regularly updating their login credentials. PropertyList.es is not liable for any unauthorised access or data breaches resulting from the user’s failure to adopt adequate security measures.
4.3 Marketing & Email Communication
By registering on PropertyList.es, users consent to receiving marketing emails, platform updates, and service notifications. Users may opt out at any time through their account settings or by contacting support or clicking opt out on emails.
Section V: Payment & Subscription Policy
5.1 Credit Purchases & Subscription Model
Credits purchased on PropertyList.es are non-transferable outside of the purchasing agency and may not be sold, exchanged, or shared between different agencies or accounts. However, within an agency, credits may be shared with other users who hold “Can Feature” or “Admin” privileges, allowing them to use the credits for approved platform features (e.g., lead generation, premium listings). Any attempt to transfer or resell credits outside of these permitted conditions will result in immediate account suspension.
The subscription model offers discounted credits for recurring purchases, subject to the terms outlined at the time of purchase.
5.2 No Refund Policy (Credits, Subscriptions & Add-Ons)
Credits and subscriptions are non-refundable except as set out in this Section or as required by applicable consumer protection law. If PropertyList.es materially fails to provide a paid service (for reasons within our control) such that the service is unusable, users may submit a claim to MLS Support within 14 days of discovery providing detailed reproduction steps and logs. We will investigate and may issue platform credits or, where required by law, monetary refunds. Platform credits are the default remedy and will be applied at PropertyList.es’s discretion. This section does not limit statutory consumer rights.
5.3 Credit Expiration & Usage
Credits do not expire but can only be used for approved services within PropertyList.es.
5.4 Payment Methods & Pricing Changes
PropertyList.es reserves the right to update pricing for credits, subscriptions, or services. Users will be notified of pricing changes via email and through announcements on the Info Hub (info.propertylist.es) at least 30 days before changes take effect. Continued use of the platform after such notifications constitutes acceptance of the revised pricing. Accepted payment methods include major credit/debit cards and PayPal. PropertyList.es is not responsible for fees or currency conversion charges imposed by third-party payment processors.
5.5 Affiliate and Advertising Disclosures
Some content or listings on the platform may be sponsored, and PropertyList.es may engage in affiliate marketing programs. All users should be aware that certain content may be sponsored or affiliated with third-party services. These disclosures will be clearly indicated on the relevant listings.
PropertyList.es may provide links to third-party websites or services for the convenience of users. These links are provided solely as a reference, and PropertyList.es does not endorse, control, or assume responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services.
