Review Kidcoover's Terms & Conditions.*
I agree to Kidcoover's Terms & Conditions.
These terms and conditions ("Terms") apply to your visit to and your use of our website at www.kidcoover.com and www.kidcoover.ca (collectively, the "Website") and your use of Services (as defined below), as well as to all information, recommendations and/or services provided to you by Kidcoover (defined below) on or through the Website and the Services.

Your contracting partner is Kidcoover Caregivers Inc. a limited liability company, existing under the laws of the Province of British Columbia and having the incorporation number BC1020415 ("Kidcoover").

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE WEBSITE OR THE SERVICES. BY USING THE WEBSITE OR THE SERVICES, YOU HEREBY REPRESENT, WARRANT, UNDERSTAND, AGREE TO AND ACCEPT THESE TERMS IN THEIR ENTIRETY WHETHER OR NOT YOU REGISTER AS A USER OF THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES.

These Terms incorporate by reference all other policies, rules and terms and conditions as set forth in Service materials, either in print or on our Website (collectively, the “Policies”). IF YOU OBJECT TO ANYTHING IN THESE TERMS, THE DATA POLICY OR THE OTHER POLICIES DO NOT USE THE WEBSITE OR THE SERVICES.

These Terms are subject to change by Kidcoover at any time. We will notify you about significant changes in these Terms by sending a notice to the email address registered in your account, or by placing a prominent notice on our Site, so that you can choose whether to continue using our Services. Significant changes will go into effect no less than 30 days after we notify you. Non-material changes or clarifications will take effect immediately upon posting of the updated terms on our Website. Your continued use of the Website or the Services after the effective date of any change will constitute acceptance by you of such change.

1. WHAT SERVICES DOES KIDCOOVER PROVIDE?
Kidcoover offers information and a means to obtain childcare services offered by third party childcare providers, caregivers or nannies (the "Caregiver"), which may be requested through the use of the Website and/or by sending an inquiry to a Kidcoover representative. Kidcoover facilitates the provision of childcare services by caregivers on a contract basis or on a permanent basis, as your employee. All such services provided by Kidcoover to you, by means of your use of a Kidcoover representative and/or the Website, are hereafter referred to as the "Services".

2. HOW IS A CONTRACT CONCLUDED BETWEEN KIDCOOVER AND YOU?
By using the Website or the Service, you enter into a contract with Kidcoover (the "Contract"). In order to be able to use the Service, you first need to sign up with Kidcoover. When signing up, you are obligated to provide Kidcoover with your personal information, mobile telephone number and email address.

You must be at least 18 years of age or older to use the Service. If you reside in a jurisdiction that restricts the use of the Service or Website because of age, or restricts the ability to enter into contracts such as this one due to age, you must abide by such age limits and you must not use the Service or the Website. You represent that if you are an individual, you are of legal age to enter into a binding contract, or that if you are registering on behalf of a legal entity, that you are authorized to enter into, and bind the entity to, these Terms and register for the Service.

3. HOW TO USE THE SERVICE
The Website allows you to send a request for Services to Kidcoover. Kidcoover reviews your request and communicates with you and potential Caregivers about your request. The Caregiver has sole and complete discretion to accept or reject each request for Service. If the Caregiver accepts a request, Kidcoover notifies you and provides information regarding the Caregiver - including the Caregiver’s first name, work eligibility, relevant background and experience, and references.

For the avoidance of doubt: Kidcoover itself does not provide childcare services, and Kidcoover is not a childcare provider. It is up to the Caregiver to offer childcare services, which may be requested through the use of the Website and/or the Service. Kidcoover only acts as intermediary between you and the Caregiver. The provision of the childcare by the Caregiver to you is therefore subject to the agreement (to be) entered into between you and the Caregiver. Kidcoover shall never be a party to such agreement.

If, at your election, a full-time Caregiver is permanently placed with you and becomes your employee (such event, a “Permanent Placement”), we are not a party to any agreement between you and the Caregiver. In the event of a Permanent Placement, you become the employer and are responsible for compliance with all applicable employment and other laws in connection with any employment relationship you establish (such as applicable employment standards legislation (including minimum wage laws), occupational health and safety legislation, and worker’s compensation insurance or benefit programs). A NEGOTIATED FEE SHALL APPLY TO ALL PERMANENT, FULL-TIME AND PART-TIME PLACEMENTS THAT OCCUR WITHIN LESS THAN SIX MONTHS OF THE DATE THE CAREGIVER FIRST COMMENCES WORK WITH YOU. THIS FEE SHALL BE $750 FOR PART-TIME CAREGIVERS AND $2000 FOR FULL-TIME CAREGIVERS, OR AS OTHERWISE AGREED UPON BY Kidcoover AND YOU PRIOR TO THE TIME OF SUCH PERMANENT PLACEMENT.

KIDCOOVER INVESTS HEAVILY IN THE SELECTION AND TRAINING OF OUR CAREGIVERS, AND WE VALUE THEM HIGHLY. SHOULD YOU WISH TO HIRE ONE OF OUR CAREGIVERS DIRECTLY ON A PERMANENT OR TEMPORARY BASIS, A PLACEMENT FEE MUST BE DETERMINED WITH KIDCOOVER PRIOR TO AN OFFER OF EMPLOYMENT BEING MADE TO OUR EMPLOYEE. THE PLACEMENT FEE WILL BE BASED ON OUR PERMANENT FEE STRUCTURE, BUT MAY ATTRACT A DISCOUNT BASED ON THE LENGTH OF TIME OUR EMPLOYEE HAS BEEN WORKING FOR YOU.

IF YOU MAKE AN OFFER OF PERMANENT EMPLOYMENT TO A CAREGIVER WHO, WAS INTRODUCED TO YOU BY KIDCOOVER OR IS PERFORMING AN ASSIGNMENT FOR YOU (OR WHO HAS PERFORMED AN ASSIGNMENT FOR YOU DURING THE PREVIOUS TWELVE (12) MONTHS) WHICH THE ON-HIRE EMPLOYEE OR NOMINATED REPRESENTATIVE ACCEPTS, YOU MUST PAY TO Kidcoover THE PERMANENT PLACEMENT FEE IN RESPECT OF THE ON-HIRE EMPLOYEE/NOMINATED REPRESENTATIVE IN ACCORDANCE WITH Kidcoover'S RECRUITMENT FEES. A FAILURE TO PAY THE PLACEMENT FEE WILL BE DEEMED AN UNAUTHORIZED CONVERSION AND SUBJECT TO AN ADDITIONAL $500 PENALTY AND SUBJECT TO LEGAL ACTION.

You are solely responsible for interviewing and selecting an appropriate Caregiver based on Kidcoover's recommendation.
Subject to applicable law, we may, at our option, conduct limited screening of a Caregiver through verification checks, as further described above. Do not rely on this limited screening as complete, accurate, up-to-date or conclusive of the individual’s or entity’s suitability as an employer or care provider.

THERE ARE RISKS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO RISK OF PHYSICAL HARM, WHEN YOU DEAL WITH SOMEONE YOU CONNECT WITH THROUGH Kidcoover. YOU ASSUME ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH DEALING WITH OTHER PERSONS WITH WHOM YOU COME IN CONTACT THROUGH Kidcoover.

WE PROVIDE NO ASSURANCE OR REPRESENTATION (EXPRESS OR IMPLIED) REGARDING THE QUALITY, TIMING, OR LEGALITY OF THE SERVICES ACTUALLY DELIVERED BY CAREGIVERS OR THE INTEGRITY, RESPONSIBILITY OR ACTIONS OF USERS OR CAREGIVERS. ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR RECOMMENDATIONS THAT WE MAKE WITH RESPECT TO ANOTHER WEBSITE USER OR CAREGIVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THOSE ABOUT THE SUITABILITY, RELIABILITY, TIMELINESS, AND ACCURACY OF THE SERVICES PROVIDED BY CAREGIVERS OR THE INTEGRITY, RESPONSIBILITY OR ACTIONS OF USERS OR CAREGIVERS WHETHER IN PUBLIC, PRIVATE OR OFFLINE INTERACTIONS, IS BASED ON THE INFORMATION PROVIDED TO US AND OUR LIMITED INVESTIGATION OF READILY AVAILABLE INFORMATION.

4. YOUR USE OF KIDCOOVER, THE WEBSITE AND THE SERVICES
You warrant that the information you provide to Kidcoover is accurate and complete. Kidcoover is entitled at all times to verify the information that you have provided and to refuse the Service or use of the Caregiver without providing reasons.

By using the Website or the Service, you agree that:
a. You will only use the Service for your sole, personal use and will not use it on behalf of a third party;

f. You will not impair the proper operation of the network or the Website;
g. You will not try to harm the Service, Website or Caregiver in any way whatsoever;
h. You will keep secure and confidential your membership password or any identification we provide you which allows access to the Service; and
i. You will provide us with whatever proof of identity we may reasonably request.

Kidcoover reserves the right to immediately terminate the Service and the use of the Website should you not comply with any of the above rules.

Because of the type of care services, the setting of the Services and the nature of the relationship between you and a Caregiver, you represent and warrant that you (i) have never been the subject of a complaint, restraining order or any other legal action involving, arrested for, charged with, or convicted of any criminal offense involving violence, abuse, neglect, theft or fraud, or any offense that involves endangering the safety of others, dishonesty, negligence or drugs, and (ii) are not nor have ever been registered, and are not currently required to register, as a sex offender with any government entity.

By using our Services, you agree that we may request verification checks using your Personal Information, in accordance with our Data Policy. We do this to verify the information you provide us (such as your name, address, email address, etc.), the representations and warranties you make in the Terms and on the Website (such as representations regarding your criminal background), and your suitability for Kidcoover. The results of these verification checks are made available to Kidcoover.

We may use third party service providers to perform these verification checks. Our third party service providers may conduct verification checks against a variety of materials which, subject to applicable law, may include but not be limited to media streams, terrorist watch lists, criminal and fugitive watch lists, fraud watch lists, law enforcement reports, criminal databases, sex offender registries and other data to perform these verification checks.

5. PAYMENT FOR SERVICES
The use of the Website and your Kidcoover membership is free of charge. Kidcoover reserves the right to introduce a fee for the use of the Website and/or the Membership. If Kidcoover decides to introduce such a fee, Kidcoover shall inform you accordingly and allow you to either continue or terminate the Contract.

THE RATES THAT APPLY FOR THE CHILDCARE BY THE CAREGIVER WILL BE COMMUNICATED BY Kidcoover TO YOU VIA EMAIL, PHONE OR THE WEBSITE. THESE MAY BE MODIFIED OR UPDATED BY Kidcoover FROM TIME TO TIME. IT IS YOUR OWN RESPONSIBILITY TO REMAIN INFORMED ABOUT THE RATES FOR YOUR SERVICES.

Kidcoover shall charge you for the Services and/or childcare provided to you by the Caregiver on behalf of the Caregiver. You agree that you will pay Kidcoover for all childcare and/or Services you purchase from the Caregiver, and that Kidcoover may charge your credit card account as provided by you when registering for the Service for the childcare (including any taxes and late fees, as applicable) that may be accrued by or in connection with your account. You are responsible for the timely payment of all fees and for providing Kidcoover with a valid credit card account for payment of all fees at all times. ANY PAYMENT MADE IS NON-REFUNDABLE.

Kidcoover uses a third-party payment processor (the "Payment Processor") to link your credit card account to the Service. The processing of payments or credits, as applicable, in connection with your use of the Caregiver and/or Service will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the Payment Processor and your credit card issuer in addition to these Terms. Kidcoover is not responsible for any errors by the Payment Processor. In connection with your use of the Services, Kidcoover will obtain certain transaction details, which Kidcoover will use solely in accordance with its Privacy.

6. LIABILITY
