This is a starting template covering the points a marketplace app like this typically
needs — it is not legal advice. Have a lawyer review it before you publish it, especially
the liability, arbitration, and refund sections, which vary a lot by country and state.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of The Beauty App (the "App"), operated
by The Beauty App ("we", "us", "our"). By creating an account or using the App, you agree
to these Terms. If you don't agree, don't use the App.
1. What The Beauty App is
The Beauty App is a marketplace that connects clients with independent beauty
professionals ("pros") — hair, lashes & brows, nails, makeup, and skin services. We
provide the platform (the map, messaging, booking requests, and payments infrastructure);
we do not employ pros, and we are not a party to the service a client and a pro agree to.
2. Who can use the App
You must be at least 18 years old to create an account.
You're responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide, and for keeping
your login credentials secure.
One account per person. Accounts are not transferable.
3. Accounts for pros
Pros represent that the services, prices, and photos on their profile are accurate,
their own real work, and that they're legally permitted to offer the services listed.
New pro profiles go through a review before appearing on the map (see our
verification and approval process). We can reject or remove a profile at our
discretion, including for policy violations or repeat reports from clients.
Pros are independent — not our employees, agents, or contractors. You're solely
responsible for your own taxes, licensing, insurance, and compliance with local
regulations for the services you offer.
4. Bookings
A booking request is not confirmed until the pro accepts it in the App.
Cancellation and rescheduling terms are between the client and the pro — we
encourage clear communication, but we don't mediate every dispute.
To keep the platform usable for everyone, we limit how many booking requests you can
send per day and prevent stacking multiple pending requests with the same pro.
5. Subscriptions & payments
The "Plus" subscription for pros is billed through the Apple App Store or Google
Play, depending on your device, and renews automatically until cancelled.
Refunds for subscription charges are handled by Apple or Google under their own
policies — we don't process refunds directly for in-app purchases.
We may change subscription pricing or features with notice in the App.
6. Content & conduct
You agree not to:
Post photos that aren't your own work, or that are misleading, inappropriate, or
infringe someone else's rights.
Harass, threaten, or discriminate against another user.
Use the App for anything illegal, or to solicit payment or business outside the
App in a way that circumvents these Terms.
Attempt to scrape, reverse-engineer, or interfere with the App's normal operation.
We may remove content, suspend, or terminate accounts that violate these rules,
including based on user reports. See our in-app reporting and blocking tools.
7. Reviews & ratings
Ratings should reflect a genuine experience with a pro. We may remove reviews that are
fraudulent, off-topic, or violate these Terms.
8. Disclaimers
The App is provided "as is." We don't guarantee the quality, safety, or legality of
services offered by pros, the accuracy of listings, or that bookings will be honored. Any
service you receive from a pro is solely between you and that pro.
9. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, The Beauty App is not liable for any indirect,
incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the App or your interactions
with other users, including services performed by a pro.
10. Termination
You can delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access for
violating these Terms, fraudulent activity, or repeated user reports, with or without
notice depending on severity.
11. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we'll notify
you in the App before they take effect.
12. Governing law
[Insert your governing jurisdiction here — this depends on where your business is
legally registered.]
