- SERVICE PROFESSIONAL PRESCREENING PROCEDURES AND DISCLAIMERS (DOES NOT APPLY TO BOOK NOW SERVICES OR PROJECT ADVISOR SERVICES).
Unless otherwise noted on the screening tab of a Service Professional's profile page, Servizzco.com uses the following criteria as part of its registration enrollment process ("registration") for new Service Professional businesses, with the exception of Corporate Accounts (as described below) which are screened applying for membership in our network. We perform the below screening at the time of the Service Professional business' enrollment:
- Licensing - We confirm that a prospective new SP business has any applicable required trade licensing for the services for which we match them to consumers. Certain professionals may require additional licensing for specific projects. We recommend you confirm these licensing requirements with the business and the applicable local licensing authorities. Larger projects often require the use of sub-contractors for specific types of work (for example, a kitchen remodel may require an electrician or plumber). We recommend you verify that all the sub-contractors doing work on your project carry the appropriate licensing. Servizzco relies on representations of service professionals that are General building contractors to have insurance to cover home improvement tasks that such service professionals are performing more than one task. We always recommend that you ask the business to provide you with a copy of their license and insurance.
- Business Filings - For service professionals that are corporations or limited liability companies, we confirm that the business is registered and current at the time of listing on our platform.
- Criminal Records Search - We use third party data sources to conduct a KYC, on the owner(s)/principal(s) of the company, for any relevant criminal convictions associated with the owner(s)/principal(s) of the business, within the three years prior to such service professional's application for membership in the Servizzco network. Servizzco's third-party vendor uses a national criminal database ("NCD") to screen our service professionals. The comprehensiveness of the NCD may not be 100% accurate. Please be aware that the reporting in the NCD is particularly limited in the following states: AL, CO, DE, GA, ID, KS, LA, ME, MA, MI, MS, MT, NE, NV, NH, NM, SD, UT, VA, VT, and WY.
- Sex Offender Search - We check the websites that consolidate state sex offender information in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located to confirm that there is not a match based solely on the name of the owner/principal of the company. We do not run sex offender searches in any other states. Please note that only a fingerprint match can guarantee an accurate match for a sex offender search. We recommend that you check the applicable state sex offender websites for any individuals that will be performing work in your home.
- WE PERFORM THE ABOVE SCREENING BASED UPON INFORMATION PROVIDED TO US BY THE SERVICE PROFESSIONAL (E.G. NAME OF OWNER, BIRTHDATE).
NOTE: SERVIZZCO PERFORMS SCREENING SOLELY AT THE TIME THE SERVICE PROFESSIONAL APPLIES FOR MEMBERSHIP IN THE SERVIZZCO NETWORK, AND THEREFORE A SERVICE PROFESSIONAL'S INFORMATION MAY CHANGE OR EXPIRE OVER TIME, AND BETWEEN SCREENINGS. THUS, SERVIZZCO CANNOT AND DOES NOT WARRANT OR REPRESENT THAT PROFILE AND SCREENING INFORMATION IS UP TO DATE. SERVIZZCO IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO UPDATE A SERVICE PROFESSIONAL'S SCREENING INFORMATION. WE RECOMMEND THAT BEFORE WORKING WITH A SERVICE PROFESSIONAL YOU VERIFY THAT INFORMATION PRESENTED IN THE SERVICE PROFESSIONAL'S PROFILE IS STILL ACCURATE, CURRENT AND ACCEPTABLE TO YOU.
Corporate Accounts: Some Service Professionals are employees, franchisees, dealers, or independent contractors ("Corporate SP's") of larger national or corporate accounts ("Corporate Accounts"). In such event, you may be matched with the Corporate Account entity or with one of their Corporate SP's. The above screening criteria is not applicable to Corporate Accounts, and therefore, Servizzco does not screen the Corporate Accounts or Corporate SP's.
Service Professionals Profiles: Serizzco allows Service Professionals to post profiles about themselves and their business on the Servizzco or apps. Servizzco does not review or verify the information or representations set forth in those profiles, except as expressly set forth above, as they are self-reported by the Service Professional. Servizzco therefore makes no representations or warranties regarding any information posted by a Service Professional, and assumes no liability for such information.
The above procedures may change from time to time at the sole discretion of Servizzco. Servizzco believes that it uses commercially reasonable methods to check these matters but does not make any representations or warranties that members continue to meet the above screening criteria after the date of their enrollment in the HomeAdvisor network. When it comes to screening, every system has its flaws. That is because no background system in the Turks and Caicos Island is one hundred percent accurate. Servizzco does not represent or warrant that the information received from the government agencies or from third party sources is accurate, error free, or that it is up to date or updated at the time that Servizzco checks such information. Most agencies have periodic update cycles or schedules and this information is not updated on a real-time basis by such agencies and third party sources.
DISCLAIMER: SERVIZZCO EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED RELATING TO THE SCREENING PROCESS, CRITERIA, PROCEDURES, OR INFORMATION OBTAINED OR PRESENTED IN THE SCREENING PROCESS OR DISCLOSURES INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE, OR THAT THE SCREENING OR VERIFICATION PROCEDURES OR STANDARDS ARE SUFFICIENT OR THAT THE INFORMATION RECEIVED IN THESE SCREENING OR VERIFICATION PROCEDURES IS ACCURATE, TIMELY OR ERROR FREE. - 13. RATINGS & REVIEWS ARE NOT ENDORSED BY SERVIZZCO.COM

YOU AGREE TO INDEMNIFY SERVIZZCO, AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, CO-BRANDERS, AND ANY PARTNERS AND HOLD THEM EACH HARMLESS FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS OR DEMANDS, INCLUDING ATTORNEY'S FEES, MADE BY ANY THIRD PARTY DUE TO OR ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVIZZCO SERVICES IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVIZZCO WEB SITE, WITH REGARD TO ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND A SERVICE PROFESSIONAL, OR YOUR VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, OR ARISING FROM YOUR VIOLATION OF ANY RIGHTS OF A THIRD PARTY. - AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE ALL DISPUTES AND GOVERNING LAW
- The exclusive means of resolving any dispute between you and Servizzco or any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to use of this Website and/or Servizzco's services (including any alleged breach of these Terms and Conditions) shall be BINDING ARBITRATION administered by the American Arbitration Association, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE FEDERAL OR STATE LAW. You may not under any circumstances commence, participate in or maintain against Servizzco any class action, class arbitration, or other representative action or proceeding.
- *NOTICE OF RIGHTS*. By using the Website and/or Servizzco's services in any manner, you agree to the above arbitration agreement. In doing so, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend any claims between you and Servizzco. YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER CLASS PROCEEDING. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR, NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. You are entitled to a fair hearing before the arbitrator. The arbitrator can grant any relief that a court can, but you should note that arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons. For details on the arbitration process, see our Arbitration Procedures.
- Any proceeding to enforce this arbitration agreement, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, may be commenced in any court of competent jurisdiction. In the event that this arbitration agreement is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against Servizzco may be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in Dale County, FL. You hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes.
- These Terms and Conditions, and any dispute between you and Servizzco, shall be governed by the laws of the state of Florida without regard to principles of conflicts of law, provided that this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
- GENERAL PROVISIONS. You acknowledge and agree that the Servizzco Services are provided to you on an "AS IS" basis without any warranty whatsoever, and your sole and exclusive remedy, and Servizzco's sole obligation to you or any third party for any claim arising out of your use of the Servizzco Services or the Servizzco or apps, is that you are free to discontinue your use of the Servizzco Services or the Servizzco.com or apps at any time. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, Servizzco EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND YOU AGREE THAT Servizzco SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL (INCLUDING LOST PROFIT), EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (EVEN IF Servizzco HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES) ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY CONSEQUENCES WHICH FLOW FROM IT. SOME STATES AND PROVINCES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON OR EXCLUSION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. IN SUCH STATES AND PROVINCES, THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. The Terms and Conditions will inure to the benefit of Servizzco's successors, assigns and licensees. If any provision of these Terms and Conditions shall be deemed unlawful, void or unenforceable, for any reason, by any court of competent jurisdiction that provision shall be modified in order to make it enforceable, while maintaining the spirit of the provision. Alternatively, if modification is not possible, such provision shall be stricken and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms. The failure of Servizzco to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms and Conditions shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Services or the Terms and Conditions must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. The section titles in the Terms and Conditions are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of the State of Florida as such laws are applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely in the State of Florida and between Florida residents. You agree to submit to jurisdiction in Florida and that any claim arising out of or related to these Terms and Conditions will be brought solely in a court in Dade County, Florida. These Terms and Conditions constitute the entire agreement between you and Servizzco and supersede all oral and written negotiations or representations of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. These Terms and Conditions may not be modified or amended other than by an agreement signed by both parties.
