  1. Heyhome Services

    The Company connects independent, third-party home service providers (“Service Providers”) with you (“Requester”) to provide you with the home services you request through the Company’s technology platform. When booked through the Company’s platform, you will pay for these “HeyHome Services“ through our online portal after completion of the service (unless you are booking a recurring plan, in which case you will pay for such service before booking completion). When booked through one of the Company’s retail partners, you will pay for these HeyHome Services upfront, either on the partner’s website or in its retail store. HeyHome IS A PLATFORM THAT CONNECTS REQUESTERS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND IS NOT THE PROVIDER OF HOME SERVICES.

  2. Screening For Heyhome Services
    1. For HeyHome Services, we use a multi-step process to screen potential Service Providers, as described further below. The process is designed to filter qualified potential Service Providers with appropriate backgrounds in compliance with applicable law. For HeyHome Services, we currently use a third-party background check provider, Checkr, Inc., to conduct any background checks. The eligibility criteria for Service Providers may be modified from time to time by the Company without notice to you. With respect to criminal background checks, you acknowledge and understand that the Company makes no guarantee with respect to the accuracy, reliability or quality of information received from any such third parties. You further understand and acknowledge that the Company relies upon representations from the Service Provider with respect to certain information pertaining to the Service Provider. The Company has no obligation or duty to perform or disclose the results of criminal background, financial, licensure or other information received from any investigation or background check.
    2. You should make whatever investigation or other resources that you deem necessary or appropriate before participating in HeyHome Services. THE COMPANY PERFORMS SCREENING SOLELY AT THE TIME THE SERVICE PROVIDER APPLIES TO REGISTER WITH THE COMPANY. THE COMPANY CANNOT AND DOES NOT WARRANT OR REPRESENT THAT A SERVICE PROVIDER’S PROFILE AND BACKGROUND CHECK SCREENING INFORMATION IS UP TO DATE. THE COMPANY IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO UPDATE A SERVICE PROVIDER’S BACKGROUND CHECK OR PROFILE. THE COMPANY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT, WHETHER ONLINE OR OFFLINE, OF ANY USER INCLUDING SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, INJURY OR DAMAGE ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY HEYHOME SERVICES.
  3. Payment For Heyhome Services; Trust & Safety Fee; Special Promotions
    1. Either prior to a scheduled HeyHome Service or immediately following the scheduled end time of a HeyHome Service, we will charge the Requester’s credit card for those HeyHome Services the Requester has ordered, and for all purchases and payments for reimbursement costs, fees, expenses or applicable taxes associated with a HeyHome Service, and the Requester hereby authorizes us to charge any credit card on file in the Requester’s HeyHome account or other previously approved payment methods for such amounts. We will use third party services to process credit card information. By accepting this Agreement, you are giving the Company (or a third-party payment processor on the Company’s behalf) permission to charge any on-file credit card, debit card, or other previously approved methods of payment for fees that you owe the Company. Depending on the transaction you selected or services requested, the Company may charge you on a one-time or recurring basis. All information that you provide in connection with a purchase or transaction or other monetary transaction interaction with the HeyHome Services must be accurate, complete, and current. You agree to pay all charges incurred by users of your credit card, debit card, or other payment method used in connection with a purchase or transaction or other monetary transaction interaction with the Company at the prices in effect when such charges are incurred. We retain the right, in our sole discretion, to place a hold on the Requester’s credit card for an ordered or completed HeyHome Service transaction. Seventy-two (72) after a HeyHome Service is completed, if there is no complaint by the Requester, we will mark the HeyHome Service as closed.
    2. Except for the Company’s Refund Policy as set forth at https://www.heyhome.io/refund-policy , no refunds or credits will be provided once the Requester’s credit card has been charged, except that at our sole discretion, refunds or credits may be granted in extenuating circumstances. While we will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of all credit card and all other personal information, we expressly disclaim any liability for any damage that may result should any information be released to any third parties, and you agree to hold us harmless for any damages that may result therefrom. Requesters will be liable for all transaction taxes on the HeyHome Service(s) provided (other than taxes based on the Company’s income). If we determine that your actions or performance may result in returns, chargebacks, claims, disputes, violations of our terms or policies, or other risks to the Company or third parties, then the Company may withhold any payments to you for as long as we determine any related risks to the Company or third parties persist. For any amounts that we determine you owe us, we may (i) offset any amounts that are payable by you to us (in reimbursement or otherwise) against any payments we may make to you or amounts we may owe you; (ii) invoice you for amounts due to us, in which case you will pay the invoiced amounts upon receipt; (iii) reverse any credits to your bank account; or (iv) collect payment or reimbursement from you by any other lawful means. If we determine that your account has been used to engage in deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or to repeatedly violate this Agreement, then we may in our sole discretion permanently withhold any payments to you.
    3. Recurrent Service with Automatic Renewal and Recurring Charges.
      1. Recurring Service. When requesting certain HeyHome Services, Requesters may have the option of choosing that the HeyHome Service be repeated on a regular basis (“Recurrent Service”). For example, a Requester may choose that a cleaning be performed every two weeks. When a Requester chooses a Recurrent Service, the Company will automatically schedule that Recurrent Service to occur on future dates indefinitely at the frequency requested by Requester. The Company cannot guarantee that the same Service Provider will be available for each Recurrent Service appointment or that Recurrent Service appointments will not be canceled or modified.
      2. BILLING, RECURRING CHARGES AND AUTOMATIC RENEWAL. When a Requester signs up for a Recurrent Service, Requester will be charged for the initial booking as provided in Section 3(a). THEREAFTER, REQUESTER’S AGREEMENT TO PAY FOR THE HEYHOME SERVICE WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW AND REQUESTER’S CREDIT CARD WILL BE CHARGED THE SAME NON-PROMOTIONAL AMOUNT, AS ORIGINALLY DISCLOSED TO REQUESTER AT THE TIME OF SIGNING UP FOR THE RECURRENT SERVICE, IN ADVANCE OF EACH AUTOMATICALLY SCHEDULED HEYHOME SERVICE APPOINTMENT, AS WELL AS FOR ANY APPLICABLE CANCELLATION FEES AND TAXES.
      3. CANCELLATION OF AUTOMATICALLY RENEWING RECURRING SERVICE. Requesters may cancel the automatically renewing Recurrent Service AT ANY TIME by sending an email to hello@heyhome.io or by mailing a notice of cancellation to HeyHome, Attn: Billing, 178 Elizabeth St, Pearl River NY 10965. REQUESTERS MUST CANCEL MORE THAN TWENTY-FOUR HOURS OR AFTER REACHING MINIMUM BOOKINGS WHERE APPLICABLE PRIOR TO THEIR NEXT HEYHOME SERVICE IN ORDER TO AVOID BEING CHARGED CANCELLATION FEES, INCLUDING LOSS OF RECURRING PLAN DISCOUNT, AND/OR FOR THEIR NEXT HEYHOME SERVICE PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY’S CANCELLATION POLICY AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 9.
      4. HeyHome Trust and Support Fee. The Company may assess an additional "Trust and Support Fee" to support the HeyHome Services, including costs related to background checks, insurance, customer support, and related services provided to you by the Company in connection with the HeyHome Services. The Trust and Support Fee will be applied to each appointment of a Professional Service requested through the HeyHome Services (e.g., if you requested a Recurrent Service, a Trust and Support Fee may be assessed on each Recurrent Service appointment). The amount of the Trust and Support Fee may vary but shall be retained by the Company in its entirety.
      5. Dormant Account Service Charge. An account is considered dormant/inactive if it has had no activity for a period of six (6) months. Activity would include applying any portion of a credit balance to payment for Professional Services. Where permitted by applicable law, a dormant account fee of up to $10 is assessed monthly until the account is reactivated or the balance has reached zero. To reactivate your account, please email hello@heyhome.io.
      6. Referral Discounts. In the event that you are given a code through which you may refer a friend to HeyHome Services in exchange for a referral discount, you shall not use any online marketing or advertising to promote such code or to artificially increase the amount of credits awarded. By way of example, you may not post, or cause, request or permit a third party to post any such code on a coupon website, nor use any paid search marketing, online advertising, forum posting, newsgroup posting or bulk email to disseminate such code. You may only share such code with your personal friends and acquaintances for legitimate referral purposes, as determined by us in our sole discretion. The Company’s referral discounts are redeemable for HeyHome Services or service requests paid for through HeyHome Pay on the HeyHome App. The Company’s referral discounts have no cash value and are not redeemable for cash unless otherwise required by law. Without limiting our other rights and remedies, we may terminate such code and/or your account for any breach of this Section.

    26. Mutual Arbitration Agreement
      1. Informal Negotiations. To expedite resolution and reduce the cost of any dispute, controversy or claim, past, present, or future, between you and the Company, including without limitation any dispute or claim related to or arising out of this Agreement (“Dispute”), you and the Company may attempt to negotiate any Dispute informally (the “Informal Negotiations”) before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding. Such Informal Negotiations will commence upon written notice. Your address for any notices under this section is your email address and/or physical address that you have provided to the Company. The Company’s address for such notices is:hello@heyhome.io and/or by mail to HeyHome, Attn: Legal, 178 Elizabeth St, Pearl River NY 10965.
      2. Arbitration. If a Dispute is not resolved through Informal Negotiations, you and the Company agree to resolve any and all Disputes (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) through final and binding arbitration (“Arbitration Agreement”). This Arbitration Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and evidences a transaction involving commerce. The arbitration will be commenced and conducted before a single arbitrator under the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”), both of which are available at the AAA website (www.adr.org). Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation will be governed by the AAA Rules (and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules). If you are unable to pay such costs, the Company will pay all arbitration fees and expenses. Each party will pay the fees for his/her or its own attorneys, subject to any remedies to which that party may later be entitled under applicable law. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing. Additionally, the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement. However, the preceding sentence shall not apply to the “Class Action Waiver” described in Section d below.
      3. Excluded Disputes. You and the Company agree that the following Disputes are excluded from this Arbitration Agreement: (1) any Dispute seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or our intellectual property rights; (2) individual claims in small claims court; (3) any claim that an applicable federal statute expressly states cannot be arbitrated; and (4) any claim for temporary or preliminary injunctive relief on the ground that without such relief the arbitration provided in this Arbitration Agreement may be rendered ineffectual.
      4. WAIVER OF RIGHT TO BE A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS ACTION. You and the Company agree to bring any Dispute in arbitration on an individual basis only, and not as a class or collective action. There will be no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought, heard or arbitrated as a class or collective action (“Class Action Waiver”). Regardless of anything else in this Arbitration Agreement and/or the applicable AAA Rules or AAA Consumer Rules, the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of the Class Action Waiver may only be determined by a court and not an arbitrator.
      5. Rules/Standards Governing Arbitration Proceeding. A party who wishes to arbitrate a Dispute covered by this Arbitration Agreement must initiate an arbitration proceeding no later than the expiration of the statute of limitations that applicable law prescribes for the claim asserted. The arbitrator shall apply the statute of limitations that would have applied if the Dispute had been brought in court. The arbitrator may award any remedy to which a party is entitled under applicable law, but remedies shall be limited to those that would be available to a party in their individual capacity, and no remedies that otherwise would be available to an individual under applicable law will be forfeited. The arbitrator is without authority to apply any different substantive law. The parties have the right to conduct adequate civil discovery and present witnesses and evidence as needed to present their cases and defenses, and any dispute in this regard shall be decided by the arbitrator. The location of the arbitration proceeding shall take place in the city or county where you reside, unless each party agrees otherwise. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enter judgment upon the arbitrator’s decision/award.
      6. Severability. You and the Company agree that if any portion of this section entitled “Mutual Arbitration Agreement” is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of this Section 27 will be given full force and effect.
    27. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Time Limitation For Claims

      Except for the Arbitration Agreement in Section 27, which is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and except as may be prohibited by the law of the State in which you primarily reside, this Agreement is governed and interpreted pursuant to the laws of the State of California, United States of America, notwithstanding any principles of conflicts of law. For all Disputes not subject to arbitration, You agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts located within the county of Los Angeles, California. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out or related to your use of the Company’s platform, websites or apps or this Agreement shall be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or will forever be barred.

    28. Independent Service Providers

      THE COMPANY PROVIDES A SOFTWARE PLATFORM WHICH ALLOWS YOU TO PURCHASE HEYHOME SERVICES FROM THE COMPANY THAT THE COMPANY FULFILLS USING INDEPENDENT SERVICE PROVIDERS.
