1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing, browsing, or using the Onitly platform ("Platform"), whether through our website at www.onitly.app or mobile applications, you ("User") acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you must immediately discontinue use of the Platform.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Dem Business LLC, a Florida limited liability company, doing business as Onitly ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"). Your continued use of the Platform following any modifications to these Terms constitutes your acceptance of such modifications.
2. Nature of the Platform
Onitly is a marketplace and technology platform only. We provide a digital space that connects clients seeking services with independent service providers who offer those services. Onitly operates solely as an intermediary platform and is NOT a party to any contract, agreement, or transaction between clients and service providers.
Specifically, Onitly:
- Provides a space with profiles, reviews, ratings, and communication tools to facilitate connections between clients and service providers;
- Does not employ, engage, supervise, direct, or control any service provider listed on the Platform;
- Does not participate in, mediate, or guarantee any transaction, contract, or agreement between clients and providers;
- Does not provide, perform, or deliver any of the services listed by providers on the Platform;
- Acts only as a technology facilitator, not as a contractor, employer, agent, or representative of any user.
3. No Guarantee or Endorsement
Onitly does NOT guarantee, endorse, warrant, or take responsibility for:
- Any service provider's work quality, reliability, competence, qualifications, or professional conduct;
- Any contract, agreement, arrangement, or understanding between clients and service providers;
- Any damages, losses, injuries, property damage, or any other harm resulting from services arranged through the Platform;
- The accuracy, completeness, truthfulness, or reliability of provider profiles, descriptions, certifications, reviews, or ratings;
- The outcome of any service engagement initiated through the Platform;
- The timeliness, completion, or quality of any work performed by a service provider.
Clients hire service providers at their OWN RISK. It is the sole responsibility of the client to review profiles, ratings, reviews, credentials, and any other available information before engaging a service provider. Onitly strongly recommends that clients independently verify provider credentials, insurance, licensing, and references before entering into any agreement.
