2.Subbiejob.com’s contractual model & a description of the facilitation service

2.1.Upon acceptance of these Terms and Conditions by you, and in exchange for the Fees, Subbiejob.com will provide contact details to you from time to time as more particularly described below.

2.2.Subbiejob.com operates the Website which has been established to facilitate the provision of potential customers’ contact details to professionals for the provision of a wide range of services.

2.3.Prospective Customers will be able to search the Website to find potential professionals to meet the Prospective Customer’s requirements. We call Prospective Customer requests “SubbieJob”, and each Subbiejob will provide details about the Prospective Customer’s requirements.

2.4.By accepting these Terms and Conditions, you agree that you will need to register as a “Professional” on the Website, which will mean that you will have the right to access relevant Subbiejobs in exchange for Subcontracted work. If you redeem Credits in response to a particular Subbiejob, Subbiejob.com will share with you the contact details which have been provided by Prospective Customers, who will then be known as Contacts, so that you can get in touch with them. The Prospective Customer will be entitled to review any responses they receive from you and other Professionals, and may or may not decide to enter into a separate contract with you or another Professional. Where you are engaged by a Prospective Customer, those persons will become your Customer. For the avoidance of doubt, a Customer is a customer of the Professional, and not a customer of Subbiejob.com.

2.5.Upon completion of a Professional’s registration on the Website, Subbiejob.com shall provide a link from the Website to the Professional’s own website, and shall include a facility for Customers to review a Professional’s performance which shall be available on the Website for Prospective Customers to see. You acknowledge and agree that any reviews left are the Customers’ own opinion, and that Subbiejob.com is not liable to you in any way whatsoever for the content of such reviews. You will ensure that any website that is linked to your profile on the Website complies with all applicable laws, guidance and regulations.

2.7.Important:
 Subbiejob.com acts only as a facilitator of the Contacts referred to above, and the provision of any services by a Professional (including the Services provided by you) to a Customer will be subject to an entirely separate legal contract. If there are any issues with performance of those Services by you, the Customer will have legal rights of redress against you, as the Professional, directly.

3.Quality of the Facilitation Services

3.1.The Facilitation Services will be provided by Subbiejob.com using reasonable care and skill . Time will not be of the essence where we have stated on the Website that any Contacts will be provided within a prescribed period of time.

3.3.Unlike other providers in the market, the Facilitation Services do not make any guarantees that you will be successful in being hired by a Prospective Customer for services, and our role is only to give you the opportunity to make contact with a Prospective Customer. If you do not secure a job with the Prospective Customer who has issued a Subbiejob on our Website, you will not be entitled to any refund from us. Please see Section 6 below for further information regarding our policy on Credit refunds.

4.The Professional’s obligations

4.1.You warrant to Subbiejob.com that the Services that you provide to your Customers will be performed by you and anyone acting on your behalf with due care and diligence, with integrity and to such high standard of quality as it is reasonable for the Customer to expect in all the circumstances, and shall comply at all times with all laws, guidance and regulations that apply to your provision of the Services to your Customers (including, without limitation, those relating to data privacy, consumer law, and health & safety).
