About The Service:

The LocalStudent service allows users to book a variety of tasks such as lawn mowing, and other general tasks (“Tasker Services”) or (“Services”) as further described on the Website ("Customers"). Customers can connect through the Website or LocalStudent App with other users ("Taskers") or (“Students”) who have registered on the Website as able to complete certain tasks, and who wish to complete the Customer’s tasks (the "Service"). You can use the Service from a computer or a mobile device if you have downloaded the LocalStudent App. Customers and Taskers are collectively referred to as "Users".


IMPORTANT: By using the Services you understand and acknowledge that we provide a booking and dispatch service that connects Customers with Taskers (including their personnel and subcontractors) and that Taskers are fully independent and not employees or agents of LocalStudent. Although we do not control Taskers work product or behavior on the job site, Taskers are required, as a condition of being part of our community to adhere to certain basic conduct standards such as professional conduct, reliability, honesty and good workmanship. Taskers are not permitted to represent themselves as our employees or that they have the ability to bind us to certain actions. If any Tasker does so, please inform us promptly. Taskers are solely responsible for determining the means and manner of performing the Tasker Services to Customers, and you understand that we do not have any control over or any oversight of how Taskers deliver the Tasker Services. We are not responsible for delivering on or completing any tasks and we are not responsible for and will not be liable in any way for any acts or omissions of Taskers and/or their employees or personnel. We do not typically endorse, validate or verify the qualifications, skills or licenses of any Taskers nor will we be responsible for the performance, actions or inactions of any Taskers. You should therefore ensure that you carry out your own searches and ask questions of Taskers and/or their employees, subcontractors and other personnel, to satisfy yourself of their credentials and ability to perform the services you need performed, prior to engaging any Tasker for Tasker Services.

Registration:

In order to access the Service and start posting tasks as a Customer you will be required to provide certain personal information as well as details about the Tasker Services you require, all as further set forth in Section 3, below. Any personal information provided by Customers and Taskers in the registration process and/or through use of the Services will be treated in accordance with the terms of our Privacy Policy, which you should read carefully. For greater certainty, you can register as a User on behalf of a corporate entity, however you acknowledge and agree that LocalStudent reserves the right to verify the corporation’s existence.

How the Service Works:

a.     Posting a Task. If you post a task on the Service, you will be asked to provide certain information pertaining to the task, including the location the task will be performed, the date of the requested Service(s), your email address, as well as your credit/debit card information.

b.     Assigning of a Task. Once a task has been posted and approved, Taskers can accept tasks posted on the LocalStudent App based on factors such as availability and geographic proximity. Once a Tasker has accepted a task, the Tasker will call the Customer to confirm the time and place for the task. The Tasker and/or Customer may contact us at info@localstudent.com if there are any issues.

Cancellation fees:

Here is an example of cancelling 2 days prior to the service. For example, if the service is scheduled on Wednesday July 19th, then the day prior to the service is July 18th, 2 days prior to the service is July 17th and 3 days prior to the service is July 16th.

a) If the Customer cancels prior to 2 days of the scheduled service date, there is no fee.

b) If the Customer cancels within 2 days of the scheduled service date, there is a $24.99 plus tax fee.

Re-scheduling:

d) For rescheduling a task, if the Customer reschedules before 48 hours of the task start time, there is no fee.

e) If the Customer reschedules the task within 48 hours of the start time, there is a $24.99 plus tax fee for a single booking.

f) If a Customer cancels more than one service at any time, there is a $24.99 plus tax fee.

g.     LocalStudent reserves the right to waive the cancellation fees under circumstances it deems, in its sole discretion, to be suitable. The decision of LocalStudent to waive such cancellation fees shall be deemed as final.

iv.Tasker Non-Attendance/Poor Task Quality. If a Tasker fails to show up to perform a task assigned to him/her or performs a task poorly, LocalStudent has the right to suspend the Tasker and charge a 100% of the Task value from the Tasker's earnings or recover this from him/her. LocalStudent’s decision will be final.

v.Completion and Billing of a Task. When a task has been completed, the Customer will be charged the final amount of the Services to the Customer’s payment card that we have on file. The Customer will be charged a payment processing fee as well. Note that the payment processing fee is approximately 2.9% plus 30 cents of the total transaction but could change, as determined by our payment processor. Taskers are paid only after Customers have made payment for the Services.

vi.Task Completion Disputes. Customers have 24 hours from completion of the task to file a dispute. Disputes may be filed by emailing us at info@localstudent.com and providing us with evidence such as photographs and narration. LocalStudent will take fourteen (14) days to review and provide a response to any complaints. Any decision by LocalStudent will be deemed final.


Prohibited Activities:

a.     Prohibited Acts. Users are not permitted to exchange contact information (including phone numbers, emails and full names) or post contact information on the Service prior to a task being assigned. Once a task has been posted, Taskers may receive location information and contact information for Customers to facilitate completing the task. Taskers will contact the Customers, and accordingly, Customers may obtain certain personal information from Taskers. Please respect the privacy of other Users of the Services and only use personal information to the extent necessary to perform the Tasker Services or otherwise complete the transaction.

b.     Prohibited Services. The following is a non-exhaustive list of the type of services that are prohibited from being requested, offered, negotiated or completed in relation to the Service by Users:

       i.         any service that would violate the law, rules, regulations, orders and/or legal rights of any person or entity in the jurisdiction of the Customer or the Tasker or in any other applicable jurisdiction, including without limitation, criminal laws and labour and employment laws;

     ii.         any service that encourages or facilitates illegal activity;

    iii.         pornographic or obscene services including sexual and escort services, offers and solicitations of prostitution, and pornography;

    iv.         any services or contracts that the Customer has no legal right to request or that the Tasker has no legal right to perform;

     v.         lottery, raffles, sweepstakes entries

    vi.         any services that would harm children or minors

   vii.         affiliate marketing, multilevel marketing or pyramid schemes; and

  viii.         services related to spam, or unsolicited services or products, or false, misleading or fraudulent services.


Fees and Payment Terms:

a.     Task Fees. The task fees are pre-determined by LocalStudent in its sole discretion. By posting a task, the Customer agrees to pay the task fee, and any electronic fund transfer fee charged by the payment processor.

b.     Taxes. The Task Fee is exclusive of taxes.. Accordingly, Customers and not LocalStudent are responsible for paying any applicable tax on a Task, including without limitation, sales tax, value added taxes, any and other local, provincial or federal taxes, levies, duties or tariffs.

c.     Refunds. Since LocalStudent offers competitive prices, the bookings are final (subject to the cancellation policy above); accordingly, is not the policy of LocalStudent to issue refunds. In the event that an Customer is entitled to a refund, the Tasker will be liable for the same, meaning that if an Customer is entitled to a refund and initiates a refund on Stripe, a credit card or other payment method, LocalStudent will charge the Tasker the complete amount of the chargeback for the applicable transaction.

d.     LocalStudent Fees. Browsing the Website, downloading the LocalStudent App and setting up an account are all free of charge. There is also no fee for Customers to post an LocalStudent request or for Taskers to respond to a request. All tasks are dealt as credit tasks, i.e. the estimated cost is pre-approved at the time of posting of the task. Taskers are not allowed to take cash from Customers for any tasks completed in connection with the Website or Service, and Customers should notify LocalStudent if any Tasker requests cash payments for the Tasker Services. LocalStudent has the right to withhold payments from Taskers if there are any complaints or disputes between the Tasker and an Customer. LocalStudent will mediate all disputes between Customers and Taskers and LocalStudent’s decision will be deemed as final and cannot be challenged. Taskers are NOT allowed to contact Customers directly in the event of a dispute.

e.     Changes to LocalStudent Fees. LocalStudent reserves the right to change the Service Fee or implement charges for other features of the Service as indicated to Users from time to time.
