Terms of Use

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account or use the Service. By using it, you confirm that you are 18 or older and able to enter into a binding agreement.

HomeTalent is a platform that helps buyers discover and connect with independent local sellers ("Creators"). Creators are independent individuals and businesses — not employees, agents or partners of Home Talent.

Home Talentis not a party to any sale, booking, store visit, alteration or other arrangement between buyers and Creators. We don't make, own, inspect, store, sell or deliver the items or services listed, and we don't guarantee their quality, safety, legality, or that a listing is accurate.

• Give accurate information and keep it up to date.
• Keep your password private. You're responsible for activity on your account.
• One person per account. Don't create accounts for others or impersonate anyone.

Buyers and Creators arrange and complete payment directly between themselves — currently in person. Home Talent does not process, hold, guarantee or refund these payments, and is not responsible for any payment, price, deposit, refund or dispute between users.

Creators are solely responsible for their prices, for collecting payment, and for any taxes, licenses or permits their sales require. If we add online payments in the future, additional terms will apply and will be shown to you before you use them.

Many HomeTalent transactions happen in person — store visits, pickups and alterations. You choose whether to meet another user, and you do so at your own risk. Home Talentdoes not screen, verify the identity of, or conduct background checks on users, and isn't responsible for anyone's conduct, on or off the Service.

Please use good judgment and follow our Safety Tips. If you ever feel unsafe, leave and contact local authorities.

If you sell on HomeTalent, you agree to:

• Describe your items honestly, with accurate photos, prices and availability.
• Only sell items you have the right to sell, and follow all laws that apply to your business.
• Honor the visits, orders and alterations you accept, and the policies you state in your shop.
• Be solely responsible for the quality and safety of your items and services, including alterations.
• Keep buyers' personal information private and use it only to complete their request.

• List anything illegal, counterfeit, stolen, unsafe, or that you don't have the right to sell.

You keep ownership of the photos, descriptions, reviews and messages you post. You give Home Talent a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, display and share that content to operate and promote the Service. You confirm you have the rights to everything you post. We may remove content that breaks these Terms.

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent allowed by law, Home Talent makes no warranties of any kind, express or implied, including about the Service, its availability, or any user, listing, item or service.

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Home Talent is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for any loss, injury, damage or dispute arising from transactions, payments, meetups, items, services or conduct between users.

You agree to defend and hold harmless Home Talent from any claims, losses or expenses arising from your use of the Service, your content, your transactions or meetups with other users, or your breaking these Terms or the law.

Disputes about a sale, payment, item, alteration or visit are between the buyer and the Creator. We encourage you to resolve them directly and respectfully. We may help where we can, but we are not obligated to.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. HomeTalent is available in more than one state; if you live elsewhere, any rights your own state's law gives you that can't be waived by agreement still apply.

We may update these Terms. If the changes are meaningful, we'll ask you to review and accept the new version before you continue using the Service. The effective date at the top shows the current version.
