These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the NetChefs website and services (collectively, the “Service”), operated by NetChefs. By using the Service, you agree to these Terms.
1. The Service
NetChefs provides an online platform to connect hosts and clients with independent culinary professionals (“Chefs”). NetChefs is not a party to agreements between you and a Chef unless we expressly state otherwise. Food preparation, staffing, logistics, insurance, permits, and on-site execution are solely between hosts/clients and Chefs or their businesses.
2. Eligibility and accounts
You must be able to enter a binding agreement in your jurisdiction. You are responsible for the accuracy of information you provide and for safeguarding access to any account credentials. Notify us promptly if you believe your account has been compromised.
3. Acceptable use
- Do not misuse the Service, probe for vulnerabilities, or attempt unauthorized access.
- Do not use the Service to harass, discriminate, mislead others, or break the law.
- Do not upload malware or content you do not have rights to share.
4. Payments and fees
Payments, refunds, cancellations, deposits, taxes, gratuities, and chargebacks may be processed according to disclosures shown at checkout, in proposals, invoices, or in your account. Fees and payout timing can change; we will post updates where reasonably noticeable.
5. Intellectual property
The Service, branding, logos, and site content provided by NetChefs are owned by NetChefs or its licensors. You retain rights in content you submit, and you grant NetChefs a license to host, display, and use that content as needed to operate the Service.
6. Disclaimer; limitation of liability
The Service is provided “as is.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, NetChefs disclaims warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We are not liable for indirect or consequential damages, or for losses arising from events involving Chefs or third parties.
7. Indemnity
To the extent allowed by law, you agree to defend and indemnify NetChefs against claims arising from your use of the Service, your events, food service, personnel, your content, or your violation of these Terms.
8. NetChefs service text messages
If you choose text contact, NetChefs may send you messages about your inquiry, consultations, bookings, scheduling, and service updates, including NetChefs Daily requests at the mobile number you provide. This SMS program does not include advertising or promotional messages.
On our inquiry forms, select “Contact me by text” to opt in. Selecting “I prefer contact via email” submits your request without SMS enrollment. Text messaging is optional and is not a condition of purchase. Providing a phone number or accepting these Terms alone does not enroll you in text messages.
Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.
Reply STOP to opt out. You may receive one final message confirming your unsubscribe request. Reply HELP for assistance, or email info@netchefs.net.
Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
