Terms of Service

Definitions

Same Day Cancellation means a Client cancels a scheduled booking, appointment, estimate visit, or work order on the calendar day the service is scheduled to occur, after a Service Professional has accepted the booking through the Platform.

Same Day Cancellation may include cancellations made before or after the Service Professional begins traveling to the service location.

VareFy may assess applicable cancellation fees in accordance with Platform policies then in effect.

Client No Show means a Client is unavailable, unreachable, denies access, fails to appear, fails to provide required access information, or otherwise prevents a Service Professional from reasonably beginning or performing the scheduled service after the Service Professional has arrived at or near the agreed service location.

A Client No Show may occur whether the service is scheduled at a residence, business, job site, or other approved location.

Platform records, including messages, timestamps, GPS records, arrival confirmations, and related documentation, may be used to determine whether a Client No Show occurred.

Client No Shows may result in a forty dollar ($40) minimum service fee, cancellation fees, or other charges disclosed through the Platform.

1. Platform Overview

VareFy operates a technology platform that enables clients and independent service professionals to connect, communicate, schedule services, process payments, and manage work orders.

VareFy is a neutral platform provider and does not perform, supervise, direct, manage, or guarantee any labor or services offered through the Platform.

The Platform is not an emergency service. Users should not rely on VareFy for emergency assistance, urgent safety situations, medical emergencies, or time-critical services where immediate professional or governmental response is required.

All services are performed by independent third-party service professionals, not by VareFy.

VareFy's role is limited to providing platform tools and related services, including:

• user accounts and communication tools;
• work order and scheduling functionality;
• payment facilitation through third-party providers;
• identity verification and related platform integrity tools;
• GPS, photo, and work-session documentation features; and
• limited dispute support and platform integrity tools.

2. Eligibility and Accounts

You must be at least eighteen (18) years old and legally capable of entering binding agreements to use the Platform.

You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete account information and to keep that information updated.

The Platform is intended solely for users located within the State of Texas unless otherwise authorized by VareFy.

Users under the age of eighteen (18) are prohibited from creating accounts, offering services, requesting services, or otherwise using the Platform.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity occurring under your account.

VareFy may suspend, restrict, or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, create safety concerns, involve fraud or abuse, or otherwise present risk to the Platform or its users.

3. Independent Service Professionals

Service professionals using VareFy are independent third parties and are not employees, agents, joint venturers, partners, or representatives of VareFy.

VareFy does not control or direct how services are performed, what tools or materials are used, how pricing is determined, or whether services comply with local licensing or permit requirements.

Each service professional is solely responsible for:

• their services and conduct;
• pricing and work quality;
• taxes and insurance;
• licensing and legal compliance; and
• interactions with clients.

Clients are solely responsible for evaluating whether a service professional is appropriate for their needs.

VareFy does not guarantee the qualifications, licensing, conduct, safety, legality, or quality of any user or service.

4. Work Orders and Payments

Clients and service professionals may create service requests, estimates, bookings, and work orders through the Platform.

Payments are processed through third-party payment providers, including Stripe Connect and related financial infrastructure services.

Transactions may involve temporary payment holding, processing delays, reserve periods, identity verification requirements, fraud prevention reviews, payout scheduling, or other payment workflow mechanisms administered by third-party providers.

VareFy does not directly hold customer funds and is not a bank, money transmitter, escrow company, or financial institution.

Platform fees, payment timing, cancellations, refunds, and payout timing may vary depending on the nature of the transaction, payment processing requirements, dispute status, or Platform rules in effect at the time of the transaction.

Users agree not to circumvent the Platform for the purpose of avoiding applicable fees, payment systems, or platform protections.

Work Orders, Payment Release, and Cancellations

Clients are responsible for reviewing completed work orders in a timely manner.

Unless a Client reports a platform issue, payment dispute, or work-related concern through the Platform within two (2) hours after a work order is marked complete, the Client authorizes VareFy to automatically release eligible funds to the Service Professional.

Clients who believe a work order was completed improperly or who wish to dispute a transaction must report the issue through the Platform before automatic payment release occurs.

Same-day cancellations may be subject to a cancellation fee. Unless otherwise stated within the Platform, cancellations occurring after a Service Professional has accepted the booking and on the scheduled service date may result in a forty dollar ($40) cancellation charge.

If a Client fails to appear, denies access, is unavailable at the scheduled service location, or otherwise prevents the Service Professional from reasonably performing the scheduled service, the Client may be charged a forty dollar ($40) minimum service fee, in addition to any applicable Platform fees or cancellation charges.

VareFy reserves the right to determine the applicability of cancellation fees, no-show charges, and automatic payment releases based on available Platform records, including messages, timestamps, GPS records, scheduling data, and other transaction information.

5. Verification and Platform Features

VareFy may provide optional or automated verification-related features, including:

• identity verification;
• profile verification;
• GPS or location-based confirmations;
• work-session timing tools;
• photo documentation;
• messaging records; and
• fraud prevention or platform integrity systems.

Verification-related features are designed to support transparency, identity confirmation, operational recordkeeping, and platform integrity. These features do not eliminate risk and should not be interpreted as guarantees of safety, reliability, professional competence, lawful conduct, or future behavior.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise within the Platform, VareFy does not conduct criminal background checks, professional licensing reviews, trade certification reviews, or ongoing screening of users.

Identity verification or profile verification features do not constitute guarantees regarding a user's conduct, criminal history, professional qualifications, licensing status, insurance status, or fitness to perform any particular service.

Users should not assume that any user has undergone criminal screening, professional vetting, licensing review, or ongoing monitoring unless explicitly stated within the Platform.

Any platform records, timestamps, photos, or verification data may be reviewed internally for operational, support, fraud prevention, safety, or dispute-related purposes.

6. User Conduct

Users agree not to:

• violate any applicable law;
• provide false or misleading information;
• impersonate another person or entity;
• harass, threaten, or abuse other users;
• upload fraudulent, manipulated, or misleading content;
• misuse the Platform or interfere with Platform operations;
• use the Platform for illegal or unauthorized purposes; or
• attempt to bypass Platform systems, payment processes, or security features.

VareFy reserves the right to investigate suspected violations and to suspend or terminate accounts at its discretion.

Users may submit content through the Platform, including profile information, messages, photos, reviews, work-order documentation, support communications, and other materials ("User Content").

Users are solely responsible for any User Content they submit, upload, transmit, or share through the Platform.

VareFy maintains a zero-tolerance policy for unlawful, abusive, threatening, harassing, hateful, fraudulent, obscene, or otherwise objectionable content or conduct.

VareFy reserves the right, but not the obligation, to review, remove, restrict, or disable User Content and to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these standards or otherwise present a risk to users or the Platform.

7. Disputes and Platform Support

VareFy may provide limited dispute support, documentation review, or communication assistance between users.

VareFy is not an arbitrator, contractor, insurer, employer, or guarantor of any transaction or service performed through the Platform.

VareFy may review available information such as work order records, messages, timestamps, payment records, GPS data, or uploaded photos when evaluating disputes, fraud concerns, or platform misuse.

Any operational actions taken by VareFy regarding platform administration, refunds, holds, account actions, or payment processing are intended solely for Platform administration purposes.

Failure to report a dispute before an automatic payment release occurs may limit VareFy's ability to recover, reverse, or adjust funds already disbursed to a Service Professional.

8. Privacy and Intellectual Property

Your use of the Platform is subject to the VareFy Privacy Policy, which explains how information is collected, used, stored, and shared. By using the Platform, you consent to the practices described in the Privacy Policy.

• payments or transactions;
• platform interruptions or failures; or
• acts or omissions of users or third parties.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, VareFy's total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Platform shall not exceed the total platform fees paid to VareFy related to the specific transaction giving rise to the claim.

12. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Any disputes arising from these Terms or the Platform shall be brought in the state or federal courts located in Texas, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.
