We do not introduce Service Providers to Users of our Platform, find projects or matters for Service Providers, or find Service Providers for Users of our Platform. Through the Platform, Service Providers may be notified of Clients that may be seeking their services, and Users of our Platform may be notified of Service Providers that may offer the services they seek; at all times, however, you are responsible for evaluating and determining the suitability of any project, Client or Service Provider on your own. If you decide to enter into a service agreement with any Service Provider found through the use of our Platform, that agreement is directly between you and such Service Provider and we shall not be a party to such service agreement.

You acknowledge, agree, and understand that the Company is not a party to the relationship or any legal dealings directly between Clients and Service Providers. Without limitation, Users are solely responsible for: (a) ensuring the accuracy and legality of any content provided by a Service Provider; (b) determining the suitability of a Service Provider (such as ensuring that the Service Provider is able to provide the required service in the mode required by the Client ensuring that the Service Provider is able to provide the required service in the mode required by ); (c) negotiating, agreeing to, and executing any terms or conditions of a service agreement; (d) performing any services; or (e) paying for any services provided by a Service Provider. 

You further acknowledge, agree, and understand that Users are solely responsible for assessing whether to enter into a service agreement with a Service Provider and for verifying any information about such Service Provider. The Company does not make any representations about or guarantee the truth, quality, efficacy or accuracy of a Service Provider’s listings or other content on the Platform; does not verify any feedback or information provided by Users of the Platform about the Service Providers; and does not vet or otherwise perform background checks on the Service Providers.

You also acknowledge, agree, and understand that the Service Providers are solely responsible for determining, and have the sole right to determine, which service requests to accept; the time, place, manner, and means of providing any services; and the type(s) of services to provide. The prices for the services of Service Providers will be determined through communication with the Service Providers throughcan be found on the Platform.

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions is intended to prohibit or discourage (nor should be construed as prohibiting or discouraging) any User from engaging in any other business activities or providing any services through any other channels they choose except as may be expressly provided in these Terms and Conditions. Users are free at all times to engage in such other business activities and services and are encouraged to do so.

While we may help facilitate the resolution of disputes, the Company has no control over and does not guarantee: (a) the quality, reliability, accuracy, or effectiveness of any services; (b) the truth or accuracy of any listing descriptions, ratings, reviews, or other User Submissions (as defined below); or (c) the performance or conduct of any User or third party. The Company does not endorse any Service Provider or services. Any references to a Service Provider being “verified” (or similar language) only indicates that the Service Provider has completed a relevant verification or identification process and nothing else. Any such description is not an endorsement, certification or guarantee by the Company about any Service Provider’s ability or quality. Users should always exercise due diligence and care when deciding whether to hire a Service Provider or communicate and interact with other Users, whether online or in person.

When you decide to engage a Service Provider to obtain services, a contractual relationship is created directly between you and the Service Provider. You and the Service Provider have complete discretion both with regard to whether to enter into a service agreement and with regard to the terms of any such agreement.

You may be permitted to access the Platform using your mobile device and the Platform may allow you to receive messages on your mobile device (collectively “Mobile Features”). Your mobile device carrier may prohibit or restrict certain Mobile Features and certain Mobile Features may be incompatible with your mobile device carrier or mobile device. In addition, your mobile device carrier may charge its standard messaging, data and other fees to enable you to use the Mobile Features. We have no responsibility or liability for any fees or charges you incur when using the Mobile Features. You should check with your mobile device carrier to find out whether any fees or charges will apply. You should also contact your mobile device carrier with any other questions regarding the Mobile Features.

You acknowledge that your use of the Platform using the Mobile Features is subject to any terms set forth in the terms of service of the third party providing the mobile device on which the Platform operates. We shall not be liable to you if you do not have a compatible mobile device or if you download the wrong version of the Platform for your mobile device. The Company reserves the right to terminate your use of the Platform should you be using the Platform with an incompatible or unauthorized device.

Your Use of the Platform and Account Set-Up and Security

You are responsible for obtaining your own access to the Platform and for the Platform’s availability and performance. You are required to ensure that all persons who access the Platform through your internet connection are aware of, and comply with, these Terms and Conditions. You are responsible for any security breaches or performance issues relating to accessing the Platform. 

The Platform may require User registration and creation of an Account. In these Terms and Conditions, an “Account” means the Account page you create for (and about) yourself. It is a condition of your use of the Platform that all the information you provide on the Platform is correct, true, unaltered, current, accurate and complete. Unless otherwise indicated by us in writing, each registration is for a single User only.

There are two different Account types: Clients and Service Providers. Once you register for one Account type, you will not be able to add the other Account type under the same e-mail address. A User may only be either a Client or Service Provider on our Platform. For example, if you already have a Service Provider Account (defined below), you cannot add a Client Account as a separate Account type in settings without re-registering. The Service Provider would have to create a new Account with a different e-mail address to be a Client on the Platform. You agree not to have or register for more than one Account without express written permission from us. We reserve the right to revoke the privileges of the Account or access to, or use of, the Platform, and those of any and all linked Accounts without warning if, in our sole discretion, false or misleading information has been provided in creating, marketing, or maintaining your Account. 

An individual or an organization may register for an Account to use the Platform as a Client (“Client Account”). Only one User may be associated with a Client Account. 

An individual or an organization may register for an Account to use the Platform as a Service Provider (“Service Provider Account”). If the Company at any time becomes aware that a Service Provider is providing services not in compliance with applicable law, we reserve the right to periodically or permanently remove your Account from our Platform. 

Your provision of registration information including the creation of your Account and any submissions you make to the Platform through any functionality such as applications, orders, personal profiles, chat rooms, e-mail, message boards, personal or interest group web pages, forums, online forms, blogs, bulletin boards, and other such functions (collectively, “Interactive Functions”) constitute your consent to all actions we take with respect to such information in accordance with the Privacy Policy. 

Any username, passwords or any other piece of information chosen by you or provided to you as part of our security procedures must be treated as confidential, and you must not disclose such information to any other individual or entity. You must exercise caution when accessing your Account from a public or shared device so that others are not able to view or record your password or other personal information. You understand and agree that should you be provided with an Account through the Platform, your Account is personal to you and you agree not to provide any other individual or entity with access to the Platform or portions of it using your username, password or other security information. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to, or use of, your username or password or any other breach of security. You also agree to ensure that you logout from your Account with the Platform at the end of each session. You are responsible for any password misuse or any unauthorized access.  

We reserve the right at any time and from time to time, to disable or terminate your Account, any username, password or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by us, in our sole discretion for any or no reason, including, but not limited to, your violation of any provision of these Terms and Conditions. Upon termination or disablement of your Account, we will not provide you with any refunds or credits of any kind whatsoever. If we disable or terminate your Account for any reason, you are prohibited from registering and creating a new Account under your name or e-mail address, a fake or borrowed name or the name of any third party, even if you may be acting on behalf of the third party.

You are prohibited from attempting to circumvent and from violating the security of the Platform including without limitation: (a) accessing content and data that is not intended for you; (b) attempting to breach or breaching the security and/or authentication measures which are not authorized; (c) restricting, disrupting or disabling service to Users, hosts, servers or networks; (d) illicitly reproducing TCP/IP packet header; (e) disrupting network services and otherwise disrupting the Platform owner’s ability to monitor the Platform; (f) using any robot, data mining, spider or other automatic device, process or means to access the Platform for any purpose, including monitoring or copying any of the Platform content; (g) introducing any viruses, trojan horses, worms, logic bombs or other material that is malicious or technologically harmful; (h) attacking the Platform via a denial-of-service attack, distributed denial-of-service attack, flooding, mailbombing or crashing; (i) attempting to decompile or reverse engineer any software contained on the Platform; and (j) otherwise attempting to interfere with the proper working of the Platform. You may not use any network monitoring or discovery software to determine the site architecture or extract information about usage or Users.    

You will provide us with such proof of identity as we may reasonably request from time to time. By providing us with your telephone number and using the Platform, you agree that we may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, use your mobile telephone number for calls and, if such telephone number is a mobile number, for text (SMS) messages, in order to assist with facilitating your use of the Platform. Standard call or message charges or other charges from your telephone carrier may apply to calls or text (SMS) messages we send you. You may opt-out of receiving text (SMS) messages from us by replying with the word “STOP” to a text message. You acknowledge that opting out of text (SMS) messages may impact your ability to use the Platform. 

By using the Platform, you expressly consent and agree to accept and receive communications from us, including via text (SMS) message, calls and push notifications to the cellular telephone number you provided to us. By consenting to being contacted by us, you understand and agree that you may receive communications, including marketing communications generated by automatic telephone dialing systems and/or which will deliver pre-recorded messages, sent by or on behalf of the Company, its affiliated companies and/or other Users of the Platform, including but not limited to: operational communications concerning your Account or use of the Platform, updates concerning new and existing features on the Platform, communications concerning promotions run by us and news concerning the Company and industry developments. You acknowledge that you are not required to consent to receive promotional messages as a condition of using the Platform.

Relationships on the Platform

Clients and Service Providers may enter into any written agreements that they deem appropriate provided that any such agreements do not conflict with, narrow, or expand the Company’s rights and obligations under these Terms and Conditions.

You acknowledge, agree, and understand that we are not a party to any contract, that the formation of a service agreement between Users will not, under any circumstance, create an employment or other service relationship between us and the Service Provider.

Service Providers are obligated to keep all User information confidential. The Company is not a party to any service agreement between Service Providers and Clients and therefore not privy to direct communication between the Users. We intend to maintain the confidential and privileged status of communications within a Service Provider-Client relationship to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law. The fact that the Company may maintain confidential information, directly or indirectly, in a database maintained by the Company or a third-party provider, or the ability of the Company to create aggregate information or composite information about Users shall not constitute the waiver of any privilege in a Service Provider-Client relationship. 

Terms Specific to Service Providers

When describing the potential services Clients may retain on the Platform, Service Providers must: (a) provide complete and accurate information about the services; and (b) clearly set out the scope of the services and any applicable restrictions or limitations or requirements that apply to that service. Despite the foregoing, Clients and Service Providers can always agree to modify the scope of work of the services if necessary.

The placement and ranking of a Service Provider’s Account in search results on the Platform may vary and depend on a variety of factors, such as User search parameters and preferences, service requirements, price, responsiveness to Client requests, cancellation history, type service, and/or ease of retaining. 

When a Client retains a Service Provider and the Service Provider accepts, the Users are entering into a legally binding agreement.
