1. JOL
CORP;
Screening.
a. JOL CORP is a technology platform that makes
available certain home services to individuals seeking to obtain home services (“Requesters”) that JOL CORP fulfills using
independently-established home service providers customarily engaged in a trade, occupation and/or business of
providing the services requested (“Professionals”). Those certain services requested by the Requesters, which
are to be completed by the Professionals, are hereinafter referred to as "Professional
Services" or "Jobs": Requestors understand and agree that Professionals' agreement to
provide requested Professional Services creates a contractual relationship between the Requestor and
Professional, and Requestor and Professional may negotiate the terms of their contract. As described further in
Section 4(e) below, no contractual relationship is created during a negotiation period associated with each
Professional Service before a Professional is committed to the Professional Service. Professional Services also
include Professional Services that are requested through Home Improvement Referrals, which are described further
in Section 3(g) below. The Professional Services may include the delivery, installation and/or assembly of
furniture and/or other items obtained through the JOL CORP or from a third party
("Merchandise"), but shall not be deemed to include the Merchandise itself. JOL CORP does not itself provide Merchandise.
JOL
CORP, THROUGH THE
JOL
CORP, OFFERS INFORMATION
AND A METHOD TO OBTAIN SUCH PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AND/OR MERCHANDISE, BUT DOES NOT AND DOES NOT INTEND TO
PROVIDE SUCH PROFESSIONAL SERVICES OR MERCHANDISE ITSELF OR ACT IN ANY WAY AS A RETAILER OR MANUFACTURER, OR AS
A CLEANING, HANDYMAN, OR OTHER HOME-RELATED OR MOVING-RELATED SERVICE PROVIDER, AND EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET
FORTH HEREIN DISCLAIMS ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AND/OR MERCHANDISE PROVIDED
TO THE REQUESTER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, A WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF GOOD AND WORKMANLIKE SERVICES,
WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR COMPLIANCE WITH ANY LAW, REGULATION, OR CODE. JOL CORP IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH, ENDORSED OR
SPONSORED BY ANY THIRD PARTY MERCHANDISE PROVIDER OR RETAILER.
b. Screening and
Licensing. FOR PROFESSIONALS THAT REGISTER TO USE THE JOL CORP IN THEIR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, FOR
PROFESSIONALS THAT ARE REQUESTED THROUGH HOME IMPROVEMENT REFERRALS AND FOR PROFESSIONALS THAT ARE ENTITIES THE
BACKGROUND CHECK IS LIMITED TO THE OWNER/PRINCIPAL OF THE COMPANY. Each Requester should exercise
caution and common sense to protect its personal safety and property, just as you would when interacting with
any person whom you do not know. We recommend you confirm these licensing requirements with the business and
local licensing authorities. Licensing may be required by the
county or local authority in which the work is being performed. We recommend you confirm these licensing
requirements before proceeding with your project. We always recommend that you ask the Professional to provide
you with a copy of their license. JOL CORP PERFORMS SCREENING SOLELY AT THE TIME
THE PROFESSIONAL APPLIES TO REGISTER ON THE PLATFORM AND/OR AFTER A PROFESSIONAL COMPLETES THEIR FIRST JOB
THROUGH THE PLATFORM. JOL CORP CANNOT AND DOES NOT WARRANT OR
REPRESENT THAT A PROFESSIONAL'S PROFILE AND BACKGROUND CHECK SCREENING INFORMATION IS UP TO DATE. JOL CORP IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO UPDATE A
PROFESSIONAL'S BACKGROUND CHECK OR PROFILE. BY USING THE PLATFORM AND EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, THE
REQUESTER AGREES TO HOLD JOL CORP FREE FROM THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY
LIABILITY OR DAMAGE THAT MIGHT ARISE OUT OF THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES. JOL CORP IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT,
WHETHER ONLINE OR OFFLINE, OF ANY USER INCLUDING PROFESSIONALS, AND WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, INJURY OR
DAMAGE ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY PROFESSIONAL SERVICES.

3. Payments; Recurring
Services and Recurring Charges; JOL CORP Guarantee; Claims; Dormant
Account Service Charge.
a. Payments. Requesters are
obligated to pay in advance for those Professional Services and/or Merchandise they obtain through the
Platform ("Payments"). Prior to the scheduled Professional Service, we will charge the Requester's
credit card according to the amount the Requester has agreed to on the Platform with respect to those
Professional Services and/or Merchandise, the Requester has ordered, and for all purchases and payments for
reimbursement costs, fees, expenses or applicable taxes associated with a Professional Service as well as the
Trust and Support Fee (as defined in 3(f) below), and the Requester hereby authorizes us to charge the credit
card on file in the Requester's Platform account for such amounts. We will use third party services to process
credit card information. By accepting this Agreement, you are giving JOL CORP (or a third-party payment processor
on JOL
CORP behalf) permission
to charge your on-file credit card, debit card, or other approved methods of payment for fees that you owe
JOL
CORP. Depending on the
transaction you selected or services requested, JOL CORP may charge you on a one-time or
recurring basis. All information that you provide in connection with a purchase or transaction or other monetary
transaction interaction with the Professional Services must be accurate, complete, and current. You agree to pay
all charges incurred by users of your credit card, debit card, or other payment method used in connection with a
purchase or transaction or other monetary transaction interaction with JOL CORP at the prices in effect when such
charges are incurred. We retain the right, in our sole discretion, to place a hold on the Requester's credit
card for an ordered or completed Professional Service transaction. Seventy-two (72) hours after a Professional
Service is completed, if there is no complaint by the Requester, we will mark the Professional Service as
closed. Except for Professional Services that are requested through Home Improvement Referrals, all Payments by
Requesters must be made through the Platform. Any Professional Services that are requested through Home
Improvement Referrals, any Payments paid, or any Professional Services scheduled or obtained outside of the
Platform are not subject to our Guarantee in Section 3(d). No refunds or credits will be provided
once the Requester's credit card has been charged, except that at our sole discretion, refunds or credits may be
granted in extenuating circumstances, as a result of specific promotions, or to correct any errors we have made.
While we will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of all credit card and all other
personal information, we expressly disclaim any liability for any damage that may result should any information
be released to any third parties, and you agree to hold us harmless for any damages that may result therefrom.
Requesters will be liable for all transaction taxes on the Professional Service(s) provided (other than taxes
based on JOL CORP income). If we determine that your
actions or performance may result in returns, chargebacks, claims, disputes, violations of our terms or
policies, or other risks to JOL CORP or third parties, then JOL CORP may withhold any payments to you for
as long as we determine any related risks to JOL CORP or third parties persist. For any
amounts that we determine you owe us, we may (i) offset any amounts that are payable by you to us (in
reimbursement or otherwise) against any payments we may make to you or amounts we may owe you; (ii) invoice you
for amounts due to us, in which case you will pay the invoiced amounts upon receipt; (iii) reverse any credits
to your bank account; or (iv) collect payment or reimbursement from you by any other lawful means. If we
determine that your account has been used to engage in deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or to
repeatedly violate this Agreement, then we may in our sole discretion permanently withhold any payments to you.
b. Price. The base
price for a Professional Service paid to JOL CORP ("Price") depends on factors,
such as location and, if part of a Recurrent Service, how frequently a Recurrent Service is ordered, and payment
terms may increase. Therefore, the same Professional Service may cost more in a different location or if the
Professional Service is ordered less frequently. However, you will be notified prior to any such payment
increase with sufficient notice to enable you to cancel the Recurrent Service as set forth herein. Additionally,
you may reach agreement with the Professional for additional payment above the base Price listed for a
Professional Service. Requesters and Professionals are free to negotiate any terms of their agreement, and there
will be no penalty to the Professional for declining a Professional Service during an initial Negotiation Period
as specified below in Section 4(e). If you and your Professional agree to new job details, you can let
JOL
CORP know by contacting
our support team. We’ll process whatever changes you need in accordance with your agreement with the pro. You
can also coordinate booking detail or pay changes directly with the Professional.
c. Recurrent Service with
Automatic Renewal and Recurring Charges.
(i) Recurring Service: When
requesting certain Professional Services, Requesters may have the option of choosing that the Professional
Service be repeated on a regular basis ("Recurrent Service"). For example, a Requester may choose that a
cleaning be performed every two weeks. When a Requester chooses a Recurrent Service, the JOL CORP platform will automatically schedule
that Recurrent Service to occur on future dates indefinitely at the frequency requested by Requester.
JOL
CORP cannot guarantee
that the same Professional will be available for each Recurrent Service appointment or that Recurrent Service
appointments will not be canceled.
(ii) BILLING, RECURRING CHARGES AND
AUTOMATIC RENEWAL: When a Requester signs up for a Recurring Service, Requester will be charged immediately for
the initial booking. THEREAFTER, REQUESTER'S AGREEMENT TO PAY FOR THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICE WILL AUTOMATICALLY
RENEW AND REQUESTER'S CREDIT CARD WILL BE CHARGED THE SAME NON-PROMOTIONAL AMOUNT, AS ORIGINALLY DISCLOSED TO
REQUESTER AT THE TIME OF SIGNING UP FOR THE RECURRING SERVICE, IN ADVANCE OF EACH AUTOMATICALLY SCHEDULED
PROFESSIONAL SERVICE APPOINTMENT, AS WELL AS FOR ANY APPLICABLE CANCELLATION FEES AND TAXES.
(iii) CANCELLATION OF AUTOMATICALLY
RENEWING RECURRING SERVICE: Requesters may cancel the automatically renewing Recurrent Service AT ANY TIME by by mailing a notice of cancellation to JOL CORPORATION ADDRESS. REQUESTERS MUST CANCEL MORE THAN
TWENTY-FOUR HOURS PRIOR TO THEIR NEXT PROFESSIONAL SERVICE IN ORDER TO AVOID BEING CHARGED CANCELLATION FEES
AND/OR FOR THEIR NEXT PROFESSIONAL SERVICE PURSUANT TO JOL CORP CANCELLATION POLICY AS SET FORTH IN
SECTION 4(e).
ProFinder. Upon entering your
information and the request for which you would like a Professional, we will attempt to match you with up to
four Professionals in your area, who may be interested in fulfilling your service need. However, we do not
guarantee that we will be able to match your service needs with a Professional or that there are Professionals
in your area that are either capable or willing to complete your service needs.
ii. Instant Connect. Professional
by phone immediately. If you request, we will search for a Professional and you can connect with them by phone.
We do not endorse or recommend
the services of any particular Professional. It is entirely up to you to
evaluate the Professional and the Professional's qualifications, and to enter into a direct contract or
otherwise reach agreement with a Professional outside of the Platform. We do not guarantee or warrant any
Professional's performance on the job or the outcome or quality of the services performed. The Professionals are
not employees or agents of JOL CORP.
iv. We may inform you of certain
offers or discounts provided by a Professional that provides the Professional Services. Such offers or discounts are made
solely by the Professional, and we do not guarantee or warrant the pricing or discounts that a Professional may
offer you. Any quotes provided by Professionals for Professional Services that are requested through
JOL
CORP
are not contractually
binding offers, are for informational purposes only, and cannot be accepted on or via us. No contractual
arrangement is created based upon the quotes provided to you from Professionals (or your scheduling of an
appointment with a Professional) via us for Professional Services that are requested through JOL CORP. To contract with a Professional,
you must work directly with the Professional. We do not perform, and is not responsible for, any of the Services
requested by you in your service request. Your rights under contracts you enter into with Professionals are
governed by the terms of such contracts and by applicable provincial and local laws. We are not a party to such
agreements. All payments and applicable taxes must be made to the Professional in accordance with the
agreements.

below. The Materials are protected from unauthorized copying and dissemination by copyright law, trademark law,
international conventions, and other intellectual property laws. JOL CORP and/or its affiliates, subsidiaries,
parents and licensors are and shall continue to be the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest

and Copyright Agent. JOL CORP respects the intellectual property
of others, and expects Users to do the same. JOL CORP will respond to properly submitted

person's or entity's copyright or other intellectual property right (such person or entity,
a "Complainant") and sends to JOL CORP a properly submitted copyright notice
as indicated below, we will investigate, and if it
determines, in its discretion, that the material is infringing, will remove the content and may terminate the
access of the User who posted such content to the Platform in the case of repeat infringers. All notices
claiming an infringement of copyright rights must contain the following:
(i) Identification of the
intellectual property right that is allegedly infringed. All relevant registration numbers, or a statement
concerning the Complainant's ownership of the work, should be included.
(ii) A statement specifically
identifying the location of the infringing material, with enough detail that may find it on the Platform. Please
note: it is not sufficient to merely provide a top level URL.
(iii) The complete name, address,
telephone number and email address of Complainant.
(iv) A statement that Complainant
has a good faith belief that the use of the allegedly infringing material is not authorized by the owner of the
rights, or its agents, or by law.

information contained in the notification is accurate, and under the penalty of perjury, Complainant is
authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other property rights that are allegedly infringed;

property rights that are allegedly being infringed.

participate in Mobile Features. We have no responsibility or liability for any fees or charges you incur when

JOL
CORP, JOL CORP and not Apple is responsible for
addressing any claims you may have relating to the App Store Sourced Application, or your possession and/or use
thereof, including, but not limited, to: (i) product liability claims, (ii) any claim that the App Store Sourced
Application fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under
consumer protection or similar legislation.

App Store Sourced Application, or your possession and use of the App Store Sourced Application, infringes on a
third party's intellectual property rights, you will not hold Apple responsible for the investigation, defense,
settlement and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claims.

19.Mutual Arbitration
Agreement.
a. Informal
Negotiations. To expedite resolution and reduce the cost of any dispute, controversy or claim,
past, present, or future, between you and JOL CORP, including without limitation any
dispute or claim related to or arising out of this Agreement ("Dispute"), you and JOL CORP may attempt to negotiate any Dispute
informally (the "Informal Negotiations") before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding. Such
Informal Negotiations will commence upon written notice. Your address for any notices under this section is your
email address and/or physical address that you have provided to JOL CORP.
b. Arbitration. If
a Dispute is not resolved through Informal Negotiations, you and JOL CORP agree to resolve any and all Disputes
(except those Disputes expressly excluded below) through final and binding arbitration ("Arbitration
Agreement"). This Arbitration Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and evidences a
transaction involving commerce. The arbitration will be commenced and conducted before a single arbitrator under
the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association
("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA
Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website (www.adr.org). Your arbitration fees
and your share of arbitrator compensation will be governed by the AAA Rules (and, where appropriate, limited by
the AAA Consumer Rules). If you are unable to pay such costs, JOL CORP will pay all arbitration fees and
expenses. Each party will pay the fees for his/her or its own attorneys, subject to any remedies to which that
party may later be entitled under applicable law. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing. Additionally,
the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to
resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this
Arbitration Agreement. However, the preceding sentence shall not apply to the "Class Action Waiver" described in
Section d below.
c. Excluded
Disputes. You and JOL CORP agree that the following Disputes are
excluded from this Arbitration Agreement: (1) any Dispute seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the
validity of, any of your or our intellectual property rights; (2) individual claims in small claims court; (3)
any claim that an applicable federal statute expressly states cannot be arbitrated; and (4) any claim for
temporary or preliminary injunctive relief on the ground that without such relief the arbitration provided in
this Arbitration Agreement may be rendered ineffectual.
e. Rules/Standards
Governing Arbitration Proceeding. A party who wishes to arbitrate a Dispute covered by this
Arbitration Agreement must initiate an arbitration proceeding no later than the expiration of the statute of
limitations that applicable law prescribes for the claim asserted. The arbitrator shall apply the statute of
limitations that would have applied if the Dispute had been brought in court. The arbitrator may award any
remedy to which a party is entitled under applicable law, but remedies shall be limited to those that would be
available to a party in their individual capacity, and no remedies that otherwise would be available to an
individual under applicable law will be forfeited. The arbitrator is without authority to apply any different
substantive law. The parties have the right to conduct adequate civil discovery and present witnesses and
evidence as needed to present their cases and defenses, and any dispute in this regard shall be decided by the
arbitrator. The location of the arbitration proceeding shall take place in the city or county where you reside,
unless each party agrees otherwise. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enter judgment
upon the arbitrator's decision/award.
f. Severability. You
and JOL
CORP agree that if any
portion of this section entitled "Mutual Arbitration Agreement" is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion
will be severed and the remainder of this section 19 will be given full force and effect.
20.Governing Law;
Jurisdiction. Except for the Arbitration
Agreement in Section 19, which is governed by the Arbitration Act and except as may be prohibited by the law of
the European Union in which you primarily reside, this
Agreement is governed and interpreted pursuant to the laws of the European Union, notwithstanding any principles of
conflicts of law. For all Disputes not subject to arbitration, You agree to submit to the personal and exclusive
jurisdiction and venue of the courts located within the country of European Union.
21.Assignment. This Agreement may not be
assigned or transferred by you without our prior written approval. We may assign or transfer this Agreement
without your consent, including but not limited to assignments: (i) to a parent or subsidiary, (ii) to an
acquirer of assets, or (iii) to any other successor or acquirer. Any assignment in violation of this section
shall be null and void. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of permitted successors and assigns.
22.General
Provisions. All provisions that should by
their nature survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. The agency, partnership, joint venture,
employer-employee or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by this Agreement. A failure by
us to enforce any provision(s) of this Agreement will not be construed as a waiver of any provision or right.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and JOL CORP with respect to its subject matter.
If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will be
enforced to the fullest extent possible, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. You
agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, there shall be no third party
beneficiaries to this Agreement. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any Dispute,
claim or cause of action arising out of or related to this Agreement must be filed within one (1) year after
such Dispute, claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. All notices provided by a party in connection
with this Agreement will be deemed given as of the day they are received either by email, messenger, delivery
service, or in the U.S. Mail, postage prepaid, certified or registered, return receipt requested, and addressed
as follows: Your address for such notices is your email address and/or physical address that you have provided
to JOL
CORP. The captions in
this Agreement are solely for convenience and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement. This
Agreement shall not be modified except in writing signed by both parties or by means of a new posting by
JOL
CORP
as described below. This
Agreement shall be interpreted as if jointly drafted by the parties. JOL CORP shall have no liability to you for
any failure or delay in performing its obligations in this Agreement where such failure or delay is caused by an
event or circumstance beyond JOL CORP reasonable control including, without
limitation, strikes, lock-outs and other industrial disputes, breakdown of systems or network access, failure of
Professionals to perform, flood, fire, explosion, acts of terrorism or accident.
23.Changes to this
Agreement. We reserve the right, at our
sole and absolute discretion, to change, modify, add to, supplement or delete any of the terms and conditions of
this Agreement at any time, effective with or without prior notice. If any future changes to this Agreement are
unacceptable to you or cause you to no longer be in compliance with this Agreement, you must terminate, and
immediately stop using, the Platform. Your continued use of the Platform following any revision to this
Agreement constitutes your complete and irrevocable acceptance of any and all such changes.
24.Severability These Terms shall be deemed
severable. In the event that any provision is determined to be unenforceable or invalid, such provision shall
nonetheless be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law, and such determination shall not affect the
validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.
25.Contact Information. If you have any questions regarding this Agreement, please contact us at JOLCorporation.
I HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I HAVE
READ AND UNDERSTAND THESE TERMS OF USE AND PRIVACY POLICY, AND AGREE THAT MY USE OF THE PLATFORM IS AN
ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF MY AGREEMENT TO BE BOUND BY ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

3. Payments; Recurring
Services and Recurring Charges; Claims
a. Payments. Users of the Platform
contract for Professional Services directly with other Users. JOL CORP is not a party to any contracts for
Professional Services. The Platform facilitates these contracts by supplying a medium through which Requesters
can connect with Professionals, schedule certain Professional Services, and make payments for certain
Professional Services ("Payments"). Requesters are obligated to pay in advance for those Professional Services
and/or Merchandise they obtain through the Platform. Prior to the scheduled Professional Service, we will charge
the Requester's credit card according to the amount the Requester has agreed to on the Platform with respect to
those Professional Services and/or Merchandise, the Requester has ordered, and for all purchases and payments
for reimbursement costs, fees, expenses or applicable taxes associated with a Professional Service as well as
the Trust and Support Fee (as defined in 3(f) below), and the Requester hereby authorizes us to charge the
credit card on file in the Requester's Platform account for such amounts. We will use third party services to
process credit card information. By accepting this Agreement, you are giving JOL CORP (or a third-party payment processor
on JOL
CORP behalf) permission
to charge your on-file credit card, debit card, or other approved methods of payment for fees that you owe
JOL
CORP. Depending on the
transaction you selected or services requested, JOL CORP may charge you on a one-time or
recurring basis. All information that you provide in connection with a purchase or transaction or other monetary
transaction interaction with the Professional Services must be accurate, complete, and current. You agree to pay
all charges incurred by users of your credit card, debit card, or other payment method used in connection with a
purchase or transaction or other monetary transaction interaction with JOL CORP at the prices in effect when such
charges are incurred. We retain the right, in our sole discretion, to place a hold on the Requester's credit
card for an ordered or completed Professional Service transaction. Seventy-two (72) hours after a Professional
Service is completed, if there is no complaint by the Requester, we will mark the Professional Service as
closed. If the Requester has agreed with the Professional to extend or reduce the hours in or to reschedule a
requested Professional Service, the Requester bears the responsibility for notifying JOL CORP Requesters must notify JOL CORP either by changing the date or hours
of the requested Professional Service through the Platform. While we will use commercially
reasonable efforts to ensure the security of all credit card and all other personal information, we expressly
disclaim any liability for any damage that may result should any information be released to any third parties,
and you agree to hold us harmless for any damages that may result therefrom. Requesters will be liable for all
transaction taxes on the Professional Service(s) provided. If we determine that your actions or
performance may result in returns, chargebacks, claims, disputes, violations of our terms or policies, or other
risks to JOL CORP or third parties, then we may withhold any payments to you for
as long as we determine any related risks to JOL CORP or third parties persist. For any
amounts that we determine you owe us, we may (i) offset any amounts that are payable by you to us (in
reimbursement or otherwise) against any payments we may make to you or amounts we may owe you; (ii) invoice you
for amounts due to us, in which case you will pay the invoiced amounts upon receipt; (iii) reverse any credits
to your bank account; or (iv) collect payment or reimbursement from you by any other lawful means. If we
determine that your account has been used to engage in deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or to
repeatedly violate this Agreement, then we may in our sole discretion permanently withhold any payments to you.
b. Price. The
price for a Professional Service ("Price") depends on factors, such as location and how frequently a
Recurrent Service is ordered, and payment terms may increase. Therefore, the same Professional Service may cost
more in a different location or if the Professional Service is ordered less frequently. However, you will be
notified prior to any such payment increase with sufficient notice to enable you to cancel the Recurrent Service
as set forth herein.
c. Recurrent Service with
Automatic Renewal and Recurring Charges.
(i) Recurring Service: When requesting certain Professional Services, Requesters may have the option of choosing that the Professional Service be repeated on a regular basis ("Recurrent Service"). For example, a Requester may choose that a cleaning be performed every two weeks. When a Requester chooses a Recurrent Service, the platform will automatically schedule that Recurrent Service to occur on future dates indefinitely at the frequency requested by Requester. JOL CORP cannot guarantee that the same Professional will be available for each Recurrent Service appointment or that Recurrent Service appointments will not be canceled.
