Registrants
Requirements for Providing a Registrant with Access to an MLS® VOW
An MLS® VOW Participant must not provide a Registrant with access to MLS® VOW Data through the MLS® VOW Participant’s MLS® VOW unless and until:

RULES of COOPERATION of the CADREB, FVREB and REBGV
(a) the MLS® VOW Participant establishes a lawful REALTOR®/ consumer or REALTOR®/client relationship with that Registrant, including, where necessary, completion of any applicable agency, non-agency, and other disclosure obligations, and execution of any required agreements;
(b) the Registrant has provided the MLS® VOW Participant, through the MLS® VOW, with the Registrant’s name, valid e-mail address and, at the option of the MLS® VOW Participant, other information;
(c) the MLS® VOW Participant has displayed the Terms of Use to the Registrant on the MLS® VOW;
(d) the Registrant has affirmatively and expressly agreed to the Terms of Use where at a minimum, the Registrant has been required to open and review the agreement and agree to the agreement by “mouse-clicking” an acknowledgement of agreement displayed on the MLS® VOW;
(e) the Registrant has supplied the MLS® VOW Participant with a user name and a password, both of which must be unique to the Registrant, (the user name and password may be established by the Registrant or may be supplied by the MLS® VOW Participant at the option of the MLS® VOW Participant). The Registrant’s password and access to MLS® VOW Data must expire on a date not later than 30 days after being issued. Passwords may not be automatically renewed upon expiration;
(f) the MLS® VOW Participant has sent an e-mail to the Registrant at the e-mail address described in (b) above confirming the user name and password and the Registrant has acknowledged receipt of the e-mail by mouse-clicking an acknowledgment of receipt displayed in the e-mail; and
(g) upon expiration of their password the Registrant must provide the MLS® VOW Participant with a new password to regain access to the MLS® VOW Data. The MLS® VOW Participant shall not permit the Registrant to regain access to the MLS® VOW Data until the MLS® VOW Participant has sent an e-mail to the Registrant at the e-mail address described in (b) above confirming the new password and the Registrant has acknowledged receipt of the e-mail by mouse- clicking an acknowledgement of receipt displayed in the e-mail.


Terms of Use
The Terms of Use must include an express acknowledgement and agreement by the Registrant in favour of the MLS® VOW Participant, the corresponding brokerage and the Board that:

RULES of COOPERATION of the CADREB, FVREB and REBGV
(a) the Registrant has received, read and understood the form published by the British Columbia Real Estate Association entitled “Privacy Notice and Consent” (this document may be linked);
(b) the Registrant acknowledges entering into a lawful REALTOR®/ consumer or REALTOR®/client relationship with the Member;
(c) all data obtained from the MLS® VOW is intended for and may only be used for the Registrant’s personal, non-commercial use;
(d) the Registrant has a bona fide interest in the purchase, sale or lease of real estate of the type being offered through the MLS® VOW;
(e) the Registrant will not himself, and will not permit or assist others to, directly or indirectly:
(i) copy, redistribute or retransmit any of the MLS® VOW Data or information provided;
(ii) display, post, disseminate, distribute, publish, broadcast, transfer, sell or sublicense any of the MLS® VOW Data to another person.
(iii) engage in Scraping (including “screen scraping” and “database scraping”), “data mining” or any other activity intended to collect, store, re-organize, summarize or manipulate any MLS® VOW Data or any related data;
(f) the Registrant acknowledges the Board’s ownership of, and the validity of the Board’s proprietary rights and copyright in the MLS® VOW Data, and listing information; and
(g) the Registrant expressly authorizes the Board or their duly authorized representatives, to access the MLS® VOW and Registrant’s information provided to the MLS® VOW Participant, for the purposes of verifying compliance with and pursuing enforcement of the Terms of Use and all applicable rules, regulations, bylaws, policies, and laws.


Terms of Use may not Impose Financial Obligation
A Terms of Use agreement may not impose a financial obligation on a Registrant or create an agency agreement with the Registrant. Any financial obligation or agency agreement entered into by a Registrant through an MLS® VOW must be set forth separately from the Terms of Use, must be prominently labelled and may not be accepted solely by mouse click. The Registrant must also receive a subsequent confirmation of the terms of any such financial obligation or agency agreement and the financial obligation or agency agreement may not become effective until the Registrant acknowledges acceptance of those terms by mouse click. Prior to entering into an agency agreement with a Registrant the MLS® VOW Participant must ask the Registrant whether the Registrant is a party to any other agency agreements. 

Maintenance of Records
MLS® VOW Participants must maintain a record of the name, telephone number, e-mail address and, if required by the MLS® VOW Participant the street address supplied by the Registrant, and the user name of each Registrant during the currency of the Registrant’s password and for not less than one hundred and eighty (180) days after the expiration of the validity of the Registrant’s password.

Privacy Policy
An MLS® VOW must boldly display a privacy policy that informs Registrants of the ways in which information obtained from them will be used, and obtain each Registrant’s consent to all of the ways in which personal information that they provide may be collected, used, or disclosed including the fact that personal information may be shared with the Board for auditing and/or legal purposes.
