The Squire Platform is protected by intellectual property laws, including without limitation copyright laws and trademark laws, and international treaties. Unauthorized reproduction or distribution of the Services or the Squire Platform, or any portion of them, may result in severe civil and criminal penalties, and will be prosecuted to the maximum extent possible under the law. The Services are licensed, not sold.

I. SERVICES

Squire is a platform that provides a marketplace for clients (” Clients” or ” you“) seeking grooming services (” Grooming Services“) by connecting Clients with barbers and/or grooming professionals (collectively, ” Professionals“) providing Grooming Services. The Professionals and Clients are both users of the Services provided by Squire and are hereinafter referred to collectively as ” Users.”

Squire solely provides a platform for Professionals and Clients to connect and serves only as a medium to facilitate the provision of Grooming Services. Squire does not provide or contract for Grooming Services, and Professionals and Clients contract independently for the provision of Grooming Services. Each Client is solely responsible for selecting the Professional, the Grooming Services to be provided and the location at which Grooming Services will be performed, whether on the premises of a Professional or at a site designated by the Client. Any decision by a Client to receive Grooming Services or by a Professional to provide Grooming Services is a decision made in such person’s sole discretion.

Squire does not have control over the quality, suitability, reliability, timing, durability, legality, failure to provide, or any other aspect whatsoever of any Grooming Services provided by Professionals nor of the integrity, responsibility or any of the actions or omissions whatsoever of any Professionals or Clients. Squire makes no representations or warranties whatsoever with respect to Grooming Services offered or provided by Professionals or requested by Clients through use of the Services, whether in public, private, or offline interactions, or about the accreditation, registration or licensing of any Professional. You understand that Squire does not routinely screen its Users, inquire into the background of its Users or attempt to verify information provided by any User. Squire does not verify or confirm that any User is who they claim to be or is accurately representing themselves and does not verify or confirm any representations with respect to Grooming Services or Professionals’ identity on the Squire Platform. Squire does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or reliability of this information or any information provided on or through the Squire Platform.

Although the Services are intended to provide each Professional’s availability in real-time, it is possible that a scheduling conflict may occur that requires the Professional to reschedule your reservation. Creation of a reservation using the Services is not a guarantee that the Professional will honor the reservation as scheduled.

Squire cannot guarantee availability of the Services to any User.

II. PAYMENTS

By using the Squire Services to book and pay for Grooming Services means you acknowledge and agree to pay the fees associated with booking the Grooming Services (” Charges“) as described either at the time of reservation or in person with the Professional at time of checkout. Charges include applicable fees for Grooming Services, plus any tips to the Professional that you elect to pay, plus applicable booking fees, if any, applicable taxes and other applicable fees. Grooming Services fees are set by Professionals and are set forth on the applicable Professional’s page within the Squire Platform. After you make a reservation but prior to your time of appointment, an authorization hold may be placed on your payment method. Your payment method will not be charged until after the time of your appointment. If you cannot make your appointment, it is your responsibility to cancel on time to avoid unnecessary charges. Note, however, it is your responsibility to know your Professional’s cancellation policy and the cancellation policy of the business your Professional is associated with (the ” Shop“). In the event that you cancel your appointment for Grooming Services, depending on your Professional’s or the Shop’s cancellation policy, you may be assessed a cancellation fee (” Cancellation Fee“). If using the Squire Services to book your appointment, then each Professional’s Cancellation Fee, if any, is displayed for you to acknowledge and agree prior to you submitting your reservation. We may also assess a ” Disruption Fee” against you if we suspect that you have made repeated and frequent cancellations or intentionally cancelled Grooming Services to disrupt the Services or the provision of Grooming Services. Cancellation Fees and Disruption Fees may be equal to the entire Charges for the reservation.

In connection with using the Squire Platform to receive Grooming Services you are required to enter credit card or other payment information. By entering your payment information when requested, you authorize Squire and payment processors to charge and process assessed Charges, Cancellation Fees or Disruption Fees. While Squire takes what we believe to be reasonable efforts to ensure secure transmission of your information to third parties who assess and process payments, Squire is not responsible for any fees or charges assessed by third parties or any errors in the processing of payments by third parties, including any errors that result from third-party negligence, improper transmission of payment information, your mistaken submission of payment information, or your submission of erroneous payment information.

Squire facilitates the payment transaction per these Terms of Service between you and each Professional, but is not responsible for mediating any resulting disputes. Squire has no obligation to provide refunds or credits, but may grant them in extenuating circumstances, as a result of specific refund guarantee promotions, or to correct any errors made by Squire, in each case in Squire’s sole discretion.

III. PAYMENT PROCESSING SERVICES

Squire’s Role

Part of the functionality of the Services allows Clients to pay and Professionals to accept payments for Grooming Services, including card-based payments initiated with cards bearing the trademarks of various credit or debit card companies (collectively, the ” Networks“). Squire is not a bank and does not offer banking services as defined by the United States Department of Treasury. Squire facilitates the processing of payments Professionals receive from Clients. This means that we collect, analyze and relay information generated in connection with these payments.

Authorization

You authorize us to process payments in accordance with the Services, using the payment information you have supplied.

Credit Card Authorization

Upon addition of a new payment method, Squire may seek authorization of your selected payment method for verification purposes to ensure that the cost of Grooming Services will be covered and protect against unauthorized behavior. The authorization is not a charge. However, it may reduce your available credit by the authorization amount until your applicable Network’s next processing cycle. Should the amount of our authorization exceed the total funds on deposit in your account, you may be subject to overdraft or non-sufficient funds charges by the institution issuing your debit or credit card. We cannot be held responsible for these charges and are unable to assist you in recovering them from your issuing institution.

Depending on the Third Party Accounts you choose and subject to the privacy settings that you have set in such Third Party Accounts, personally identifiable information that you post to your Third Party Accounts may be available on and through your Account on the Squire Platform. Please note that if a Third Party Account or associated service becomes unavailable or Squire’s access to such Third Party Account is terminated by the third party service provider, then SNS Content may no longer be available on and through the Squire Platform. At your request made via e-mail to [email protected], Squire will deactivate the connection between the Squire Services and any of your Third Party Accounts and delete any applicable information stored on Squire’s servers that was obtained through such Third Party Account, except the username and profile picture that become associated with your Account.

You are responsible for any tax consequences, if any, that may result from your redemption or use of Rewards.
