Terms & Conditions
1. Scope of MuseAvenue Services
1.1 MuseAvenue is an online hair & beauty services market network, operated by Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd, which connects hair & beauty service buyers (“Clients”) and hair & beauty services providers (“Talents”). Beauty Services may include but not limited to Makeup, Hair Styling, Lash Extensions, Brow Services, Hair Extensions, Hair Colouring, Teeth Whitening and Nail Services (“Talent Services”).
Clients can find and book Talent Services. Clients can also communicate with Talents via our message feature after creating an account on MuseAvenue.
Talents are able to create a professional profile which includes their professional details including images of work, pricing for various services, etc.
1.2 As the provider of the MuseAvenue Platform, Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd does not own, create, sell, resell, provide, control, manage, offer, deliver, or supply any Professional Services or Talent Services. Talents alone are responsible for their Professional Services and Talent Services. When Clients make bookings, they are entering into a contract directly with the Talent. Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd is not and does not become a party to or other participant in any contractual relationship between Clients, nor is Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd an agency. Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd is not acting as an agent in any capacity for any Talent, except as specified in the Payment Terms.
1.3 While we may help facilitate the resolution of disputes, Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd has no control over and does not guarantee (i) the existence, quality, safety, suitability, or legality of any Talent Services, (ii) the truth or accuracy of any Professional Service descriptions, Ratings, Reviews, or other Talent Content (as defined below), or (iii) the performance or conduct of any Talent or third party. Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd does not endorse any Talent, Professional Service or Talent Services. Any references to a Talent being “verified” (or similar language) only indicate that the Talent has completed a relevant verification or identification process and nothing else. Any such description is not an endorsement, certification or guarantee by Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd about any Talent, including of the Talent’s identity or background or whether the Talent is trustworthy, safe or suitable. You should always exercise due diligence and care when deciding whether to use Talent Services, accept a booking request from a Customer, or communicate and interact with other Clients, whether online or in person. Verified Images (as defined below) are intended only to indicate a photographic representation of a Professional Service at the time the photograph was taken and are therefore not an endorsement by Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd of any Talent or Professional Service.
1.4 If you choose to use the MuseAvenue Platform as Talent service provider, your relationship with Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd is limited to being an independent, third-party contractor, and not an employee, agent, joint venture or partner of Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd for any reason, and you act exclusively on your own behalf and for your own benefit, and not on behalf, or for the benefit, of Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd.
1.5 To promote the MuseAvenue Platform and to increase the exposure of Professional Services to potential Clients, Talent Content may be displayed on other websites, in applications, within emails, and in online and offline advertisements. To assist Clients who speak different languages, Professional Services and other Talent Content may be translated, in whole or in part, into other languages. Hair App Solutions Pty Ltd cannot guarantee the accuracy or quality of such translations and Clients are responsible for reviewing and verifying the accuracy of such translations. The MuseAvenue Platform may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties for merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
