BookingSparrow TERMS OF SERVICE
BY USING THE BookingSparrow WEBSITE LOCATED AT www.bookingsparrow.com (THE “WEBSITE”), SOFTWARE PLATFORM (the “PLATFORM”), AND/OR USING THE FEATURES OF THE BOOKINGSPARROW APP (the “APP”) You hereby ACKNOWLEDGE that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). THESE TERMS APPLY TO ALL USERS OF THE WEBSITE, PLATFORM, APP AND SERVICES (AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED BELOW), INCLUDING INDIVIDUALS AND ENTITIES WHO REGISTER FOR THE SERVICES, INDIVIDUALS AND ENTITIES WHO USE THE SERVICES AND INDIVIDUALS WHO VISIT THE WEBSITE (COLLECTIVELY, “USERS” OR “YOU”). IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS, DO NOT USE THE WEBSITE, APP OR SERVICES.
KTMM Inc., doing business as BookingSparrow (“BookingSparrow”, “we”, or “us”), is the owner and operator of the Website, Platform and App. The BookingSparrow Website and App allows registered Users (“Clients”) to book stylists (“Stylists”), who provide on-demand beauty services during sessions (“Sessions”), and provides a platform for Stylists to advertise their services to Clients (collectively, the “Services”).
1.1 Accounts. To access certain features of the Website, App and Services, you will need to register for an account (your “Account”) by providing us with your name, email address, phone number, government issued identification, and location. You may also be asked to provide other information in accordance with our Privacy Policy. You agree that you are responsible for keeping your Account password confidential and secure, and further understand that you are solely responsible and liable for any activities that occur under your Account.
1.2 Eligibility. To use and/or register for the Services, you must:
By accepting these Terms, you represent that you understand and agree to the foregoing.
1.3 Credit Card. In order to register for the Services, you may be required to provide valid credit card and billing information (“Billing Information”). BookingSparrow uses third-party payment processors (“Payment Processors”) to process transactions. You authorize your Billing Information to be provided to the third-party Payment Processors. You acknowledge and agree that terms of service of the Payment Processor will govern your agreement and interactions with the Payment Processor and that our Terms and policies do not govern. BookingSparrow HAS NO LIABILITY ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF OR ACCESS TO THE PAYMENT PROCESSOR.
2.1 Platform. BookingSparrow is a mobile beauty services platform that connects Clients with Stylists available for on-demand beauty services. Clients and Stylists contract directly with one another in all respects of any Sessions. BookingSparrow will not be a party to any agreements or contracts between Clients and Stylists for Sessions. BookingSparrow acts to coordinate payments between Users, but does not act as a service provider and nothing in our involvement in the marketplace and payment process makes us responsible for Sessions.
3.1 Client Fees. For every booking made, Clients agree to pay the fees charged by Stylists (the “Subtotal”) as well as a convenience charge (“Convenience Charge”) to BookingSparrow, which will be displayed to the Client at the time of booking a Stylist on BookingSparrow. The Convenience Charge and Subtotal will be included in the price displayed to Clients. Upon booking the Stylist on the Platform, the full amount of the Convenience Charge and Subtotal must be paid. BookingSparrow reserves the right to change the Convenience Charge at any time. When a Client makes a reservation using the Services, the Client agrees that the full amount of the Convenience Charge and Subtotal, including applicable taxes, will be charged to the credit card/debit card on file of the Client using the Billing Information provided.
3.2 Stylist Fees. For every booking made, Stylists agree to pay a fee to BookingSparrow on the Subtotal (the “Stylist Fee”), which will be collected by BookingSparrow at the time payment is made by the Client on the Platform. BookingSparrow reserves the right to modify the Stylist Fee at any time.
3.3 Payment of Fees. Following a Session, subject to Section 3.4 below, BookingSparrow will remit to the Stylist the Subtotal owed to the Stylist, less the Stylist Fee, pursuant to the terms of the agreement between the Client and the Stylist, and such payment shall be considered the same as though payment was made directly from the Client to the Stylist. All payments are sent to BookingSparrow via a third-party payment processor setup on the Website, which is then forwarded to the Stylist after BookingSparrow receives payment and the Stylist’s services have been completed.
3.4 Taxes. Stylists are solely responsible for calculating, withholding and/or remitting any taxes related to Subtotals. BookingSparrow will be responsible for calculating and remitting taxes on any Convenience Charges and Stylist Fees. The Stylist agrees to indemnify BookingSparrow, and each of its officers, directors, employees and agents and hold them harmless against any and all losses, taxes, damages, liabilities, and claims arising out of the calculation, remittance or withholding of any applicable taxes, except as it relates to the Convenience Charge or Stylist Fee.
3.5 Client Cancellations. If a Client cancels a booking four (4) hours or more before the time of the Session (the “Session Time”), then the Client will receive a full refund for the Convenience Charge and Subtotal paid. If a Client cancels a booking between one (1) and four (4) hours before the Session Time, then the Convenience Charge and twenty percent (20%) of the Subtotal will not be refundable, as the Stylist may have had to forego other Session requests for that time. If a Client cancels a booking within one (1) hour of the Session Time, then the Client will not receive a refund for any amounts paid.
3.6 Stylist Cancellations. If a Stylist cancels a Session for any reason and at any time, all payments made to the Stylist in connection with the Session must be returned in accordance with these Terms, in addition to any other associated fees incurred by BookingSparrow or Client.
3.7 Refunds. Unless a Session is cancelled four (4) hours or more before a Session Time, BookingSparrow does not provide any refunds to Clients for Convenience Charges.
