Terms & Conditions

1. Introduction and Acceptance

Welcome to Fixabee ("Platform", "we", "us", "our"), operated by Aadhi Pixels Ltd. These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Fixabee mobile application and website (collectively, the "Services").

By creating an account, accessing, or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must not use our Services.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. We will notify you of material changes via email or through the Platform. Your continued use of the Services after such modifications constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

2. Nature of the Platform

Fixabee expressly IS NOT:

• A cleaning company or service provider of any kind
• An employer, principal, or agent of any Provider
• A party to the contract between Customers and Providers
• Responsible for the quality, safety, or legality of services provided
• Responsible for the qualifications, background, or conduct of Providers
• An insurer or guarantor of any services or transactions

Providers are independent contractors who use the Platform to offer their services. They set their own rates, hours, methods, and terms of service. The contractual relationship for any services booked is solely between the Customer and the Provider.

3. Eligibility and Account Registration

To use our Services, you must:

• Be at least 18 years of age
• Have the legal capacity to enter into binding contracts
• Provide accurate, current, and complete registration information
• Maintain the security of your account credentials
• Promptly update your information if it changes

For Providers: You must additionally have the legal right to work in your jurisdiction, provide accurate date of birth for compliance verification, and maintain any required licences, permits, or insurance for the services you offer.

You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account. If you suspect unauthorised access, contact us immediately at support@fixabee.com.

4. Payments, Fees, and Escrow

4.1 Payment Processing

When a Customer books a service, payment is collected through Stripe and held in escrow until the service is completed and confirmed. This protects both parties by ensuring:

• Customers only pay for completed services
• Providers are guaranteed payment for services rendered

4.2 Platform Fee

Fixabee charges a platform fee (commission) on each transaction. This fee is deducted from the Provider's payment before transfer. The current fee rate is displayed during booking and in Provider account settings.

4.3 Escrow and Release

Funds are held in escrow and released to the Provider when:

• The Customer confirms the booking is complete, OR
• 7 days pass after the Provider marks the service as complete without Customer dispute

4.4 Provider Payouts

Providers receive payments directly to their bank account via Stripe Connect. Providers must complete Stripe's identity verification and onboarding process to receive payouts. Payout timing depends on Stripe's processing schedule and the Provider's country.

5. Cancellations and Refunds

5.1 Customer Cancellations

Customers may cancel bookings subject to the following:

• Free cancellation: Up to 24 hours before the scheduled service
• Late cancellation: Within 24 hours may incur a cancellation fee
• No-show: Failure to provide access or be present may result in full charge

5.2 Provider Cancellations

Providers who cancel bookings may face penalties including reduced visibility on the platform and, for repeated cancellations, account suspension.

5.3 Refunds

Refunds are processed through Stripe and typically appear within 5-10 business days depending on your bank. Fixabee does not control refund timing once processed.

6. Limitation of Liability

6.1 No Liability for Services

Fixabee accepts NO LIABILITY for:

• The quality, safety, legality, or suitability of any services provided by Providers

• Personal injury or harm of any kind
• Any consequential, incidental, indirect, or special damages
• Lost profits, business interruption, or loss of data
• Actions, omissions, or conduct of any Provider or Customer
• Disputes between Customers and Providers

• Secure valuable items before any service
• Maintain adequate home insurance coverage

6.3 Maximum Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Fixabee's total aggregate liability to you for any claims arising from or related to the Services shall not exceed the greater of: (a) the platform fees you have paid to Fixabee in the 12 months preceding the claim, or (b) £100.

6.4 Platform Availability

We do not guarantee uninterrupted access to the Platform. We are not liable for any unavailability, delays, or technical issues.

• Your violation of any third-party rights
• Any services you provide or receive through the Platform

Our decisions are final and made at our sole discretion. For disputes involving significant damages or legal matters, you should seek independent legal advice and pursue resolution directly with the other party or through the courts.
