User Acknowledgments

  • Toolbelt, Inc. provides a technology platform connecting independent builders, contractors, and skilled workers (collectively, “Users”) with one another. Any employment or independent contractor relationship entered into between or among Users is directly between and among the Users; ToolBelt, Inc. is not a party to any such relationship.  You acknowledge and agree that the relationship between you and Toolbelt, Inc. is limited to payment to ToolBelt, Inc. for the use of the Services (where your use of the Services requires payment to ToolBelt, Inc.). Users are neither employees nor independent contractors of ToolBelt, Inc. No joint venture, franchisor-franchisee, partnership, or agency relationship is intended or created by these Terms of Use.
  • The Services offered by Toolbelt Inc. do not include those of a contractor, builder or worker. Toolbelt, Inc. does not in any way employ, supervise, manage, direct, or control the work of Users in any way and does not assess, warrant, or guarantee the suitability, legal work status, skills, experience, or abilities of any User. Toolbelt, Inc. does not verify Users’ compliance with applicable laws or regulations and has no responsibility or liability for the acts and/or omissions of any User. Accordingly, in the event you transact business with other Users through the Services, you do so at your own risk, and you agree to use your own independent skill, experience, knowledge, and expertise in doing so, without reliance on ToolBelt, Inc. or the Services for such purposes.
  • While Toolbelt, Inc. makes available certain aspects of the Services to Users free of charge, Toolbelt, Inc. offers a paid subscription offering which Toolbelt, Inc. refers to as its Pro Subscription plan. Pro Subscription plans offer numerous benefits to Users above and beyond Toolbelt, Inc.’s free Services offerings. Among other things, Users who purchase a Pro Subscription plan are able to make unlimited connections through the Services and post unlimited project applications. In addition, where a User purchasing a Pro Subscription plan posts a project application, the Services allow ToolBelt, Inc.’s customer success team to leverage its database of potential subcontractors and other skilled workers in order to send push notifications to potential subcontractors and other skilled workers that match the posting’s requirements or criteria. Accordingly, you acknowledge and agree that ToolBelt, Inc. may prioritize project application postings made by Users who have purchased a Pro Subscription plan above project application postings made by Users who are using the Services free of charge.
