Limitations of Obligations and Responsibilities of Company

We are not a referral, matching or placement service. We do not provide, refer, place, offer or seek to obtain employment or engagements for any of the users of the Website or the App.

WE DO NOT SCREEN OR VERIFY THE TRAINING OR EXPERIENCE OF ANY USER OF THE WEBSITE OR THE APP OR ANY CONTENT SUBMITTED BY A USER OR ANYONE OTHER THAN COMPANY (“USER CONTENT”), INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PROFILES AND REVIEWS. WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, COMPLETENESS OR TIMELINESS OF PROFILES OF OUR USERS, REVIEWS, BACKGROUND CHECK INFORMATION, AFFILIATIONS OR OTHER USER CONTENT SUBMITTED ON THE WEBSITE OR THE APP AND MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT ANY SUCH USER CONTENT ON THE WEBSITE OR THE APP. WE MAKE NO FURTHER REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT THE BABYSITTERS OR INDIVIDUALS SEEKING BABYSITTING SERVICES (“GUARDIANS”). YOU SHOULD MAKE YOUR OWN ASSESSMENTS OF THE PERSONS YOU DECIDE TO INTERACT WITH, ENGAGE, PROVIDE SERVICES TO OR RECEIVE SERVICES FROM.

With respect to Babysitters, we conduct background checks to verify your account or registration information and the representations and warranties you have made. This may include, without limitation, using third party service providers to conduct criminal background checks or identity verification checks or to perform other background or verification services, and, using available public records, including information available on online social networks and other online sources, each to the extent permitted by law. 03853152.10 3

We are not involved in the transactions between Babysitters and Guardians. Users of the Website and the App arrange for the services solely between themselves, and Company is not party to any of those service arrangements. We do not have control, supervise or provide any training or equipment to Babysitters, and we have no control over the quality, timing, legality, failure to provide, or any other aspect whatsoever of the services provided by Babysitters. As set forth below, you agree to release Company from any claims or liability that may arise from any disputes between you and other users of the Website and the App.

Tax Implications

We are not an employment service and we do not serve as an employer of any Babysitter. As such, Babysitters and Guardians are solely responsible (and Company is not responsible) for any tax, withholding or reporting, including, but not limited to, unemployment insurance, workers’ compensation, social security or payroll withholding tax or income reporting in connection with any services provided by Babysitters. You understand and agree that if Company is found to be liable for any tax, withholding tax or reporting obligation in connection with any services provided or received by you, then you will immediately reimburse and indemnify Company for all costs, expenses and liabilities (including any interest and penalties) relating to the same.

Services

The Company enables you and other users to connect with and engage the services of independent babysitters ("Wyndy Babysitters") who provide childcare services as Third-Party Providers. These services are designed to facilitate the booking and coordination of babysitting services between you and the Wyndy Babysitters.

Once you make a request for a babysitter, Wyndy notifies available Wyndy Babysitters of the opportunity to fulfill your request. It is at the discretion of the Wyndy Babysitter to decide whether to offer their services to you, and it is your decision whether to accept the services from a Wyndy Babysitter. To ensure the safety and protection of both Wyndy babysitters and the families they serve, Wyndy is proud to offer occupational accident coverage as a required form of work injury protection. This means that in the event of a work-related accident or injury, Wyndy babysitters are covered, providing them and you with peace of mind.

It's important to understand that Wyndy is not a childcare provider or employer of the Wyndy Babysitters. Wyndy solely provides the platform to connect you with independent Third-Party Providers offering babysitting services. Wyndy Babysitters are not agents, apparent agents, ostensible agents, or employees of Wyndy in any way. Any efforts or policies undertaken by Wyndy to enhance safety, security, or facilitate the provision of services by Wyndy Babysitters (whether required by regulations or not) do not establish an employment, agency, or related relationship between Wyndy and the Wyndy Babysitters.

By using the Wyndy Services, you acknowledge that the services are intended for personal, noncommercial use and that the relationship between you and the Wyndy Babysitters is that of an independent contractor arrangement.

Except as set forth in the Disputes; Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver Section immediately below, all matters relating to the Website or the App and these Terms of Use and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Alabama without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Alabama or any other jurisdiction).

Disputes; Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

Section immediately below, all matters relating to the Website or the App and these Terms of Use and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Alabama without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Alabama or any other jurisdiction). Disputes; Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver By accessing or using the Website or downloading or using the App and/or agreeing to these Terms of Use when they are presented to you, Company may require you to submit any disputes arising from the use of these Terms of Use, the Website or the App, including disputes arising from or concerning their interpretation, violation, invalidity, non-performance, or termination, to final and binding arbitration applying Alabama law, with the following exceptions:

  • you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims apply; and

  • in the event that the arbitration agreement in these Terms of Use is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against Company (except for small-claims court actions) may be commenced only in a federal or state court located within Jefferson County, Alabama, and we both consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes. YOU WAIVE ANY AND ALL OBJECTIONS TO THE EXERCISE OF JURISDICTION OVER YOU BY SUCH COURTS AND TO VENUE IN SUCH COURTS.

    The arbitration agreement in these Terms of Use is governed by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures (the “AAA Rules”), including its procedural provisions, in all respects. This means that the AAA Rules govern, among other things, the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration agreement and all of its provisions, including, without limitation, the class action waiver discussed below. State arbitration laws do not govern in any respect.

    This arbitration agreement is intended to be broadly interpreted and will survive termination of these Terms of Use. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to the extent permitted by law to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this arbitration agreement, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this arbitration agreement is void or voidable. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same compensatory damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow these Terms of Use as a court would.

    To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to: 1500 1st Avenue North, Unit 20, Birmingham, AL 35203. The arbitration will be conducted by an arbitrator mutually agreed to by the parties under the AAA Rules or, if applicable, any applicable supplemental rules. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In no event will we pay for attorneys' fees. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location.

We each agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, and that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. YOU AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration section (except for your consent to venue in Jefferson County, AL) will be null and void and neither of us will be entitled to arbitrate our dispute.

Our rights and obligations under this arbitration provision shall inure to the benefit of the consumer reporting agency regardless of whether the consumer reporting agency is named as a co-defendant with us or named individually in a claim that would otherwise be subject to this arbitration provision if brought against us.

Limitation on Time to File Claims

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF USE, THE WEBSITE, OR THE APP MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

Waiver and Severability

No waiver of by Company of any term or condition set forth in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of Company to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

Entire Agreement

The Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy and any other terms and conditions expressly incorporated herein or therein by reference constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and Company with respect to the Website or the App and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to the Website or the App.
