2.              Disclaimers

2.01         Swishboom may be used to facilitate the listing, marketing, acceptance, and completion of babysitting opportunities (“Appointments”). We make our Services available as an online marketplace for users who list available Appointments (“Care Seekers”) to connect with other users who want to book babysitting appointments (“Caregivers”) and make arrangements directly with each other. Swishboom IS NOT AN AGENCY. We do not employ or engage Caregivers. Our responsibilities are limited to providing an App where Care Seekers can connect with Caregivers and facilitating the availability of the Services.

2.02         YOU AGREE THAT SWISHBOOM HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY TO YOU RELATED TO ANY APPOINTMENT MADE THROUGH THE SERVICES OR TO ANY CARE PROVIDED BY CAREGIVERS OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS OF USE. SWISHBOOM CANNOT AND DOES NOT CONTROL THE INFORMATION OR CONTENT CONTAINED IN ANY LISTINGS (OTHER THAN THE ARRANGEMENT AND DISPLAY OF SUCH CONTENT) AND THE LEGALITY, SAFETY OR SUITABILITY OF ANY APPOINTMENTS. SWISHBOOM IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR AND DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL LIABILITY RELATED TO ANY AND ALL LISTINGS AND APPOINTMENTS. ACCORDINGLY, ANY APPOINTMENTS WILL BE MADE OR ACCEPTED AT A USER’S OWN RISK, AND CARE SEEKERS MUST SATISFY THEMSELVES WITH ANY CAREGIVER’S CREDENTIALS.

2.03         CAREGIVERS ARE NOT EMPLOYEES, PARTNERS, REPRESENTATIVES, AGENTS, JOINT VENTURERS OR FRANCHISEES OF SWISHBOOM. SWISHBOOM DOES NOT PERFORM ANY OBLIGATIONS IN CONNECTION WITH THE CARE PROVIDED FOR CARE SEEKERS AND DOES NOT EMPLOY CAREGIVERS TO PERFORM SUCH OBLIGATIONS. USERS HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SWISHBOOM DOES NOT SUPERVISE, DIRECT, CONTROL OR MONITOR A CAREGIVER’S APPOINTMENTS BUT MAY MONITOR BOOKINGS MADE THROUGH THE SERVICES.

2.04         Swishboom strongly recommends that, if any User is introduced to an individual who may be a suitable Caregiver, said User should take all reasonable and sensible precautions and steps to assess such individual. Any information gained from questionnaires or tests on the App are based solely upon information submitted by other individuals or Users of the App. Accordingly, Swishboom makes no guarantees as to its correctness, completeness, or accuracy of such User Content and cannot verify or otherwise ascertain the accuracy of such user-submitted information. Users are solely responsible for undertaking steps to check or otherwise ascertain the accuracy of any user-submitted information. Each user is solely responsible for the accuracy, legality, currency and compliance of its own User Content and will be solely liable for false, misleading, inaccurate, infringing or other actionable material contained or referred to therein.

2.05         Although each member/subscriber/user must agree to these Terms of Use, Swishboom cannot guarantee that each member is at least the required minimum age, nor does Swishboom accept responsibility or liability for any content, communication or other use or access of the App by persons under the age of 13 in violation of these Terms of Use. It is also possible that other Users (including unauthorized users, or “hackers”) may post or transmit offensive or obscene materials through the App and that you may be involuntarily exposed to such offensive or obscene materials. It is also possible for others to obtain personal information about you via your use of the App. These individuals may use your information for purposes other than what you intended. Swishboom is not responsible for the use of any personal information that you disclose on the App. Please carefully select the type of information that you post on the App or release to others. SWISHBOOM DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, FOR THE ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF OTHER USERS (INCLUDING UNAUTHORIZED USERS), WHETHER SUCH ACTS OR OMISSIONS OCCUR DURING THE USE OF THE APP OR OTHERWISE.

2.06         Although Swishboom attempts to maintain the integrity and accuracy of the information on the App, Swishboom provides any services on an “as is” basis and makes no guarantees as to its correctness, completeness, or accuracy. The App may contain typographical errors, inaccuracies, or other errors or omissions. Also, unauthorized additions, deletions, or alterations could be made to the App by third parties without our knowledge. If you believe that information found on the App is inaccurate or unauthorized, please inform Swishboom by contacting us via information provided below. Swishboom specifically disclaims any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. Further, Swishboom does not warrant that your use of the service will be secure, uninterrupted, always available or error-free, or that the service will meet your requirements or that any defects in the service will be corrected. Swishboom disclaims liability for, and no warranty is made with respect to, connectivity and availability.

2.07         Caregivers and Care Seekers are solely responsible for their interactions with each other, and any other parties with whom such user interacts, whether online through the App or offline. Caregivers and Care Seekers agree that Swishboom will not be responsible for any liability incurred as the result of such interactions. ALTHOUGH SWISHBOOM DOES VERIFY EACH CAREGIVER’S EMAIL ADDRESS AND PHONE NUMBER, CHECK THE CAREGIVER’S NAME AGAINST THE SEX OFFENDER REGISTRY IN THE STATE WHERE THE CAREGIVER LISTS A PRIMARY RESIDENCE, AND CONTACT REFERENCES PROVIDED BY THE CAREGIVER (“VERIFICATION PROCESSES”), SUCH VERIFICATION PROCESSES ARE COMPLETED ON THE CAREGIVER’S ENROLLMENT, AND SWISHBOOM DOES NOT HAVE ANY ONGOING VERIFICATION PROCEDURES. LIKEWISE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT SWISHBOOM DOES NOT CONDUCT BACKGROUND CHECKS ON ANY APP USERS. ALTHOUGH SWISHBOOM DOES CONDUCT LIMITED VERIFICATION AS NOTED ABOVE, SWISHBOOM CANNOT AND DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE ACCURACY OF ANY INFORMATION AND DOES NOT ENDORSE, CERTIFY, OR GUARANTEE ANY INFORMATION ABOUT ANY USER. SWISHBOOM MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES AS TO THE CONDUCT OF ITS USERS OR THEIR COMPATIBILITY WITH ANY CURRENT OR FUTURE USERS.
