Effective Date: 25-July-2025

Welcome to Living Cluster, operated by Lotez Technologies (OPC) Private Limited (“we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of our website, mobile applications, and services (collectively, the “Services”). By accessing or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. Please read them carefully.

1. Use of Services

Living Cluster provides a technology platform that facilitates apartment management services, including payment processing of maintenance fees from apartment residents to their respective apartment associations. We act solely as a technology service provider and aggregator and do not own or manage apartment associations.

2. User Accounts

To access certain features, you may be required to create an account and provide accurate, complete information. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.

3. Payment Processing

Payments made through Living Cluster are processed via third-party payment gateways such as Cashfree. All maintenance fee payments collected from apartment residents are transferred directly to the bank accounts of the respective apartment associations. Lotez Technologies (OPC) Private Limited does not charge any commission or markup on these payments.

Residents are responsible for paying any applicable payment gateway convenience fees or transaction charges.

4. Refunds and Cancellations

Since payments are made directly to apartment associations, Living Cluster does not handle refunds or cancellations. Refunds, if any, are subject to the policies and decisions of the respective apartment associations. Residents seeking refunds or adjustments should contact their apartment association directly.
