- Work2Day is Solely a Venue for Communications. Work2Day is a communications platform for enabling the connection between individuals seeking to obtain services (“Clients”) and/or individuals seeking to provide services (“Workers/Professionals”). Clients and Workers/Professionals together are referred to as “Users”. Those certain services requested by the Clients, which are to be completed by the Workers/Professionals, are hereinafter referred to as “Professional Services”. The Professional Services may include the delivery and/or assembly of furniture and/or other items (“Merchandise”), but shall not be deemed to include the Merchandise itself. Work2Day does not itself provide Professional Services or Merchandise. The provision of all Professional Services is up to the Professionals, which may be scheduled through use of Work2Day. WORK2DAY, THROUGH THE WORK2DAY APP, 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, GENERAL LABOUR, LANDSCAPING, SNOW REMOVAL, LIGHT DUTY OR OTHER HOME-RELATED, SMALL BUSINESS RELATED, OR MOVING-RELATED SERVICE PROVIDER, AND HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AND/OR MERCHANDISE PROVIDED TO THE CLIENT BY WORKERS/PROFESSIONALS, 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. WORK2DAY IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH, ENDORSED OR SPONSORED BY ANY THIRD PARTY MERCHANDISE PROVIDER OR SERVICE RETAILER.
- Background Checks. By January 2020 Work2Day will perform background checks on all Workers/Professionals via third party background check services to the extent permitted by applicable law. However, each Client 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. BY USING WORK2DAY, THE CLIENT AGREES TO HOLD WORK2DAY FREE FROM THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY LIABILITY OR DAMAGE THAT MIGHT ARISE OUT OF THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES. WORK2DAY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT, WHETHER ONLINE OR OFFLINE, OF ANY USER INCLUDING WORKERS/PROFESSIONALS, AND WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, INJURY OR DAMAGE ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY PROFESSIONAL SERVICES.
- Personal Information; User Accounts.
- Collection of your Personal Information. Some of the materials available on the Work2Day App may require prior registration to access. If you decide to access such materials you will be required to register. We may refuse to grant you, and you may not use, a user name, email address or screen name that is already being used by someone else; that may be construed as impersonating another person; that belongs to another person; that violates the intellectual property or other rights of any person; that is offensive; or that we reject for any other reason at our sole discretion. When you complete a registration with Work2Day, you will be required to provide certain personal information. You agree that such information will be true, accurate and complete, and that you will update this information promptly when it changes. If you provide any information that is untrue or inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, or if we suspect that your information is untrue or inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, we may, at our sole discretion, suspend or terminate your right to access any material for which registration is required. Any personally identifiable information collected, used, and disclosed hereunder will be subject to the terms of the Privacy Policy.
- Account, Password and Security. You are the sole authorized user of your account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any username, password and account provided by you or us for accessing Work2Day. You are solely and fully responsible for all activities that occur under your password or account, except that Work2Day may, in certain circumstances, access your account to make changes that you request, such as rescheduling a Service appointment. Work2Day has no control over the use of any User’s account by the User or third parties and expressly disclaims any liability derived therefrom. Should you suspect that any unauthorized party may be using your password or account or you suspect any other breach of security, you must contact us immediately at support@work2day.ca. Nothing in this section shall affect Work2Day’s rights to limit or terminate the use of Work2Day, as provided below in section 4(b).
- Proof of Identity. You will provide us with such proof of identity as we may reasonably request from time to time.
- Text Messages and Phone Calls. By providing your phone number and using Work2Day, you agree that we may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, use your mobile phone number for calls and, if such phone number is a mobile number, for text (SMS) messages, in order to assist with facilitating the requested Professional Services. Standard call or message charges or other charges from your phone carrier may apply to calls or text (SMS) messages we send you. You may opt-out of receiving text (SMS) messages from us by replying with the word “STOP” to a text message from us. You acknowledge that opting out of text (SMS) messages may impact your ability to use the Work2Day App. You agree to Work2Day’s use of a service provider to mask your telephone number when you call or exchange text (SMS) messages with a Service Professional or Service Requestor on the Work2Day App using a telephone number provided by Work2Day. Work2Day also masks the telephone number of the Service Requestor or Service Professional with whom you are communicating. During this process, Work2Day and its service provider will receive in real time and store call data, including the date and time of the call or text (SMS) message, the parties’ phone numbers, and the content of the text (SMS) messages. You agree to the masking process described above and to Work2Day’s use and disclosure of this call data for its legitimate business purposes.
- Emails. Work2Day may send you confirmation and other transactional emails regarding the Professional Services. Work2Day may also send you emails about services that we think might interest you (“Promotional Emails”). You can unsubscribe from Promotional Emails at any time by clicking unsubscribe in our email communications or contacting us.
- Payments; Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee; Claims: Refund Policy:
- Payments. Users of Work2Day contract for Professional Services directly with other Users. Work2Day is not a party to any contracts for Professional Services. Work2Day facilitates these contracts by supplying a medium through which Clients can connect with Workers/Professionals, schedule Professional Services, and make payments for Professional Services (“Payments”). Clients are obligated to pay in advance for the Professional Services and/or Merchandise they order through the Work2Day App. We will charge the Client’s credit card according to the amount the Client has agreed to on the Work2Day App with respect to all Professional Services and/or Merchandise, the Client has ordered, and for all purchases and payments for reimbursement costs, fees or expenses associated with a Professional Service as well as the Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee (as defined in 3(d) below), and the Client hereby authorizes us to charge the credit card on file in the Client’s Work2Day account for such amounts. We will use third party services to process credit card information. By accepting this Agreement, you are giving Work2Day (or a third-party payment processor on Work2Day’s behalf) permission to charge your on-file credit card, debit card, or other approved methods of payment for fees that you owe Work2Day. Depending on the transaction you selected or services requested, Work2Day 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 Work2Day at the prices in effect when such charges are incurred. We retain the right, at our sole discretion, to place a hold on the Client’s credit card for an ordered or completed Professional Service transaction. Forty-eight (48) hours after a Professional Service is completed, if there is no complaint by the Client, we will mark the Professional Service as closed. If the Client has agreed with the Worker/Professional to extend or reduce the hours in or to reschedule a requested Professional Service, the Client bears the responsibility for notifying Work2Day. Clients must notify Work2Day either by changing the date or hours of the requested Professional Service through the Work2Day App or by visiting the Work2Day Support Center by emailing support@work2day.ca. All Payments by Clients must be made through the Work2DayApp. Any Payments paid outside of the Work2Day App are not subject to our Workmanship Guarantee in Section 3(d). Except for the Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee in Section 3(d), and the Refund Policy in Section 3(e), no refunds or credits will be provided once the Client’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. Clients will be liable for all transaction taxes on the Professional Service(s) provided (other than taxes based on Work2Day’s income).
- Job Rate. The rate per hour for a Professional Service (“Job Rate”) depends on factors, such as location demand, season, suggested rates based on industry trends, previously completed job statistics, and worker star ratings. Therefore, the same Professional Service may cost more in a different location, or may cost more between one season to the next, or if the suggested rate is made concerning a more experienced worker with a higher rating.
- Recurrent/Multiple Service Request. When requesting a Professional Service, Clients may have the option of choosing that the Professional Service be repeated over a number of subsequent days (“Recurrent Service”), or to select multiple workers/professionals simultaneously for one service request (“Multiple Worker/Professional Request”).
For example, a Client may choose that a cleaning be performed four days in a row. When a Client chooses a Recurrent Service, Work2Day will automatically schedule that Recurrent Service to occur on future dates specified and requested by the Client. Client’s credit card will be charged the same non-promotional amount, as originally disclosed to the Client at the time of the signing up for Recurring Service, for the Recurrent Service as the Professional Service appointments occur and for any applicable cancellation fees. Work2Day cannot guarantee that the same Professional will be available for each Recurrent Service appointment or that Recurrent Service appointments will not be cancelled. Clients may cancel the Recurrent Service at any time by visiting the Work2Day Support Center at work2day.ca/support or by emailing a notice of cancellation to support@work2day.ca. Clients must cancel more than six (6) hours prior to the Professional Service in order to avoid being charged any cancellation fees for the next Professional Service. - Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee.
- The Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee is available to Clients who purchase the insurance option and is the sole liability of Work2Day to Clients for the performance of Professional Services. If you are not satisfied with the quality of the initial Professional Service requested and paid for through the Work2Day App, then Work2Day will send another Worker/Professional to re-perform the same exact Professional Service ordered at no additional charge to the Client.
- The Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee also provides certain limited additional protections. Pursuant to the Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee and subject to the below conditions and limitations, Work2Day will compensate Clients: (a) up to CAD $500 per occurrence for losses arising from property damage as a direct result of negligence of a Worker/Professional during performance of a Professional Service; or (b) Clients up to CAD $1,000 for losses arising from theft of a Client’s property by a Worker/Professional during performance of a Professional Service. The Service Client is eligible for the Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee provided that the Client reports the issue within twenty-four (24) hours of the Professional Service appointment to our Client service by visiting the Work2Day Support Center. For Recurring Services and Multiple Workers/Professionals, each Professional Service is treated as a separate occurrence.
- Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee – Conditions & Exclusions; Your Primary Insurance. If you carry insurance that would cover you in the event of any claim, such as renter’s insurance, homeowner’s insurance, automobile insurance or an umbrella policy (“Personal Insurance”), You agree that your Personal Insurance is primary and the Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee is the last resort. The Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee will only compensate for losses to the extent not otherwise covered by Your Personal Insurance.

During Work2Day’s claims assessment process, You may be required to provide written detailed: (i) proof of ownership of damaged/missing item (ii) proof of value of damaged/missing item and (iii) proof of damage or loss. If such information is requested, You will have 30 days from the date of the request to send Work2Day the requested information. If You fail to provide the requested information within the 30 day time period and/or fail to contact Work2Day to arrange for an extension of time, Your claim will be considered closed. You also agree to: (i) protect and preserve any damaged property that is the basis of a claim from further damage, (ii) assist and allow Work2Day or its insurers access to inspect and make copies, photographs and recordings of anything relating to the claim, (iii) accept repairs and/or remediation by a Professional, (iv) accept a replacement only if repairs are proven not to be an option, (v) submit requested materials by the dates outlined by the Work2Day resolutions team, and (vi) accept a replacement item subject to the standard depreciation of that item.
If any part of Your claim is approved, then as a condition to any payment to You under the Work2Day Workmanship Guarantee, You will be required to execute and deliver to Work2Day a release agreement and assign to Work2Day or its insurer any rights and remedies you may have to recover amounts paid to you with respect to an approved claim from any party that is financially responsible for the approved claims and any rights in any property that is recovered.
- Work2Day Refund Policy: Work2Day may issue a refund on a case by case basis. Where a Professional Service has been requested through the Work2Day App and the Worker/Professional is absent for the requested Professional Service and the Professional Service remains incomplete, Work2Day will attempt to reschedule a new Worker/Professional to complete the Professional Service until said Service is complete. No refunds will be issued under these circumstances. No refunds will be granted 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. Where a Professional Service has been performed and the Client is unsatisfied with the quality of work then a subsequent Worker/Professional will be scheduled to perform the exact Professional Service that was initially requested by the Client, if said Client had opted-in to the Workmanship Guarantee as set out in Section 3(d).

- Policy for Service Cancellation by Client. Work2Day’s cancellation policy (found at work2day.ca/terms-conditions/) for specific Professional Services is as follows: Clients may cancel their scheduled Professional Service appointments through the Work2Day Platform at any time, subject to the following. If a Client cancels more than 3 hours before a scheduled Professional Service appointment, there is no cancellation fee. If the Client cancels during the 3hours before a scheduled Professional Service appointment, the Client will be charged the full Professional Service amount. This cancellation policy applies both for one-time Professional Service bookings and for recurring or multiple Professional(s) Service appointments. A Professional Service appointment may be canceled through the Work2Day App or through our website.
- Policy for Service Cancellation by Worker/Professional. When a Worker/Professional cancels a scheduled Professional Service appointment, the Work2Day App generally notifies the Client and makes the Client’s Professional Service request available for another Professional to select. However, Work2Day cannot guarantee that a canceled Professional Service appointment will be selected by another Worker/Professional and rescheduled or that the Professional Service request will be completed. For Recurrent Service Requests, if a Professional Service appointment is canceled by a Worker/Professional, the Client will not be charged for that Professional Service appointment. Workers/Professionals who cancel a scheduled Professional Service appointment may incur fees as provided in the Service Agreement.

- Mutual Arbitration Agreement.
- Informal Negotiations. To expedite resolution and reduce the cost of any dispute, controversy or claim, past, present, or future, between you and Work2Day, including without limitation any dispute or claim related to or arising out of this Agreement (“Dispute”), you and Work2Day 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 Work2Day. Work2Day’s address for such notices is:Email: support@work2day.ca and/or by mail to Work2Day, Inc., Attn: Legal, 3373 Stoney Cres Mississauga, ON L5M 0N7
- Arbitration. If a Dispute is not resolved through Informal Negotiations, you and Work2Day 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, Work2Day 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.
- Excluded Disputes. You and Work2Day 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 injunctive relief.
- WAIVER OF RIGHT TO BE A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS ACTION.
To fullest extent permitted by applicable law, You and Work2Day agree to bring any Dispute in arbitration on an individual basis only, and not as a class or collective action. There will be no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought, heard or arbitrated as a class or collective action (“Class Action Waiver”). Regardless of anything else in this Arbitration Agreement and/or the applicable AAA Rules or AAA Consumer Rules, the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of the Class Action Waiver may only be determined by a court and not an arbitrator. - 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.
- Severability. You and Work2Day 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 18 will be given full force and effect.
- Governing Law; Jurisdiction. Except where required otherwise by law, this Agreement is governed and interpreted pursuant to the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada, notwithstanding any principles of conflicts of law.
- 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.
- General Provisions. No 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 Work2Day 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 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 Work2Day.

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.

- Severability. These Terms shall be deemed severable.
