- Services Connect Professionals and Requesters. DishwasherHero provides an online marketplace that connects Users who are willing to provide Professional Services (“Professional(s)”) with Users who are looking for Professionals (“Requesters”). Each Requester request for Professional Services (a “Booking Request”) to be provided by one or more Professionals (the “Professional Services”) is hereinafter referred to as a “Mission”. DishwasherHero does not employ Professionals, so the actual contracts for Professional Services are directly between Requesters and Professionals. In providing the Service under this Term of Use it is expressly agreed that the Talent is acting as an independent contractor and not as an employee. Therefore the Requester is solely responsible for any damages due to its negligence and liable for any injuries occurred at is workplace and to pay any indemnity to Talent. Requester agrees not to claim any damages to DishwasherHero resulting from injuries to Talent. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between any User, Talent and DishwasherHero as a result of these Terms, or the use of the DishwasherHero Platform.DISHWASHERHERO OFFERS INFORMATION AND A METHOD FOR REQUESTERS TO REQUEST PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AND TO CONTRACT WITH ONE OR MORE PROFESSIONALS TO PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, BUT DISHWASHERHERO DOES NOT PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AND HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY PROFESSIONAL SERVICES PROVIDED TO YOU BY PROFESSIONALS.

You agree that DishwasherHero has sole discretion over the establishment and maintenance of any Pooled Account.

This assignment applies only to interest earned on your funds, and nothing in this Agreement grants DishwasherHero any ownership right to the principal of the funds you maintain with DishwasherHero. In addition to or instead of earning interest on Pooled Accounts, DishwasherHero may receive a reduction in fees or expenses charged for banking services by the banks that hold your funds. You understand that use of the Services may result in charges to you for the services or goods you receive from a Third Party Provider (“Charges”). After you have received services or goods obtained through your use of the Service, DishwasherHero will facilitate your payment of the applicable Charges on behalf of the Third Party Provider, as such Third Party Provider’s limited payment collection agent. Payment of the Charges in such manner shall be considered the same as payment made directly by you to the Third Party Provider. Charges will be inclusive of applicable taxes where required by law. Charges paid by you are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by DishwasherHero. You retain the right to request lower Charges from a Third Party Provider for services or goods received by you from such Third Party Provider at the time you receive such services or goods. DishwasherHero will respond accordingly to any request from a Third Party Provider to modify the Charges for a particular service or good. All Charges are due immediately and payment will be facilitated by DishwasherHero using the preferred payment method designated in your Account, after which DishwasherHero will send you a receipt by email. If your primary Account payment method is determined to be expired, invalid or otherwise not able to be charged, you agree that DishwasherHero may, as the Third Party Provider’s limited payment collection agent, use a secondary payment method in your Account, if available. As between you and DishwasherHero, DishwasherHero reserves the right to establish, remove and/or revise Charges for any or all services or goods obtained through the use of the Services at any time in DishwasherHero’s sole discretion. Further, you acknowledge and agree that Charges applicable in certain geographical areas may increase substantially during times of high demand. DishwasherHero will use reasonable efforts to inform you of Charges that may apply, provided that you will be responsible for Charges incurred under your Account regardless of your awareness of such Charges or the amounts thereof. DishwasherHero may from time to time provide certain users with promotional offers and discounts that may result in different amounts charged for the same or similar services or goods obtained through the use of the Services, and you agree that such promotional offers and discounts, unless also made available to you, shall have no bearing on your use of the Services or the Charges applied to you. You may elect to cancel your request for services or goods from a Third Party Provider at any time prior to such Third Party Provider’s arrival, in which case you may be charged a cancellation fee. This payment structure is intended to fully compensate the Third Party Provider for the services or goods provided. Except with respect to taxicab transportation services requested through the Application, DishwasherHero does not designate any portion of your payment as a tip or gratuity to the Third Party Provider. Any representation by DishwasherHero (on DishwasherHero’s website, in the Application, or in DishwasherHero’s marketing materials) to the effect that tipping is “voluntary,” “not required,” and/or “included” in the payments you make for services or goods provided is not intended to suggest that DishwasherHero provides any additional amounts, beyond those described above, to the Third Party Provider. You understand and agree that, while you are free to provide additional payment as a gratuity to any Third Party Provider who provides you with services or goods obtained through the Service, you are under no obligation to do so.

b. Arbitration.If a Dispute is not resolved through Informal Negotiations, you and DishwasherHero 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).

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.c.

f. 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.
