Independent Providers & Referrals
Malibu Local Handyman Co. may subcontract work to independent, licensed local providers, and may refer projects that are larger than our scope to independent licensed contractors. The provider who performs the work is responsible for its own licensing, insurance, permits and workmanship. Any estimate, agreement, warranty or payment for work performed by an Independent Provider is between you and that provider.

Disclaimers
Throughout the Site, we may provide links and pointers to Internet sites maintained by third parties. Our linking to such third-party sites does not imply an endorsement or sponsorship of such sites or the information, products, or services offered on or through the sites.
The information, products, and services offered on or through the Site are provided “as is” and without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the fullest extent permissible pursuant to applicable law, we disclaim all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.
You agree at all times to indemnify and hold harmless Malibu Local Handyman Co., its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, agents, and employees from any claims, causes of action, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses arising out of or related to your breach of any obligation, warranty, or representation under these Terms of Service.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the entire liability of the Company under any provision of these Terms of Service, and your exclusive remedy, is limited to the amount you actually paid to the Company through the Site, or 100 USD if you have not paid anything through the Site.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Company be liable for any special, incidental, indirect or consequential damages (including loss of profits, loss of data, business interruption or loss of privacy) arising out of or related to your use of or inability to use the Site, even if the Company has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or the limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so some of these limitations may not apply to you; in those states, liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.
“AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” Disclaimer
The Site is provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE,” with all faults and without warranty of any kind. The Company makes no representation that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, accurate or current, or free of viruses or other harmful components. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions, so some of the above may not apply to you; where that is the case, the exclusions apply to the greatest extent the law allows.

Certain sections of the Site may allow you to purchase products and services from third-party vendors. We are not responsible for the quality, accuracy, timeliness, reliability, or any other aspect of these products and services. If you make a purchase from a third party linked through the Site, the information obtained during your visit, including payment information, may be collected by both the merchant and us.
Your participation in any dealings with third-party vendors is solely between you and the third party. Malibu Local Handyman Co. shall not be responsible for any loss or damage incurred as a result of such dealings.

You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a United States government embargo or designated by the United States government as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not listed on any United States government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
Severability & Waiver
If any provision of these Terms of Service is held to be unenforceable or invalid, it will be changed and interpreted to accomplish its objectives to the greatest extent possible under applicable law, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. Our failure to exercise a right or require performance of an obligation under these Terms of Service does not affect our ability to do so later, and a waiver of one breach is not a waiver of any later breach.
Changes to Terms of Service
We may update these Terms of Service from time to time. The latest version will always be available on our website with the effective date. If a change is material, we will make reasonable efforts to post notice on the Site at least 30 days before the new terms take effect.
