Owner violations of this policy may lead to suspension or termination of the involved property listing. Evolve will be entitled to collect its management fees and issue full refunds to travelers at the owner’s expense. 

Guest violations, including violations by any of your invitees, may lead to termination of a stay without refund and a future ban from travel with Evolve. 

Consequences may vary based on the severity and frequency of violations. In certain cases, Evolve may notify its partners or law enforcement of behavior that potentially threatens any person’s safety or violates applicable law.
