Your use of this Website constitutes your agreement to all such terms, conditions, and notices in effect at such time. If you have any questions regarding these Terms and Conditions, you may contact us at info@repairtime.com.

1. INTRODUCTION TO REPAIRTIME. Upon your registration, an email address is required and will be used as your login username. You will also be asked to establish a password and to confirm that password.

2. REPAIRTIME SERVICES. At RepairTime, we are committed to making our participating service providers' experience a profitable and positive one. Service providers are permitted to register and participate at the RepairTime Website only upon receiving an email invitation from a registered member. Upon your receipt of a registered member invitation submission, you will be eligible to register your services at the RepairTime Website. During the registration process, you will be asked to create a service provider profile, select the service categories within which you provide services, select the service area within which you provide services, and to provide editorial or promotional content (up to 256 characters) regarding your business.

   Once you have completed the registration process, registered members and their network constituency of friends, family and neighbors will be able to link to you and your services. Registered members are provided the flexibility of submitting service requests for multiple service providers (i.e. bid), single service providers (i.e. assign), or directly to their service provider of choice (i.e. direct). All service request submissions are performed online at the RepairTime Website. Only registered members are permitted to submit service requests through the RepairTime Website. Upon submission of a service request, RepairTime will match the registered member’s service request with participating service providers in accordance with such request (i.e. bid, assign, direct). In the event the registered member submits a bid service request, up to three participating service providers will be matched with the service request and provided the lead. In the case of an assign or direct service request, only one participating service provider will be matched with the lead. Service providers will be informed of service request leads by automated email. Service request leads are also posted within the matched service providers secure login area of the RepairTime Website. You are asked to respond to a service request lead in a timely manner by accepting or declining the lead. Leads that are not responded to, by the service provider, prior to the selected service date entered by the registered member will expire on that date. Through the service provider secure login area of the RepairTime Website, service providers may track the history of the leads they receive and their status. Registered members are encouraged to provide rating and review feedback with respect to service requests submitted and completed through the RepairTime Website. Rating and review feedback will be available for viewing by RepairTime registered members and all such content is and shall remain the sole and exclusive property of RepairTime.

   We do not guarantee the volume of leads you will experience by participating in the RepairTime Website. We make no guarantees or representations regarding the skills and quality of workmanship performed by you, or any participating service provider. RepairTime does not endorse or recommend the services of any particular service provider. It is entirely up to you to enter into a direct contract or otherwise reach agreement with a registered member, and we do not guarantee or warrant your performance on the job or the outcome or quality of the work you perform. Payment for the services you render to registered members is to be arranged directly by you with the registered members. We do not guarantee payment for your services, or make any other representations regarding the creditworthiness of the registered members.
