About BusyToe: Your Service Marketplace
BusyToe is an online platform that facilitates the offering, selling, and purchasing of services in
various locations and at different price points. Please note that BusyToe is not directly involved
in the transactions between buyers and sellers and does not hold any of the items or services
listed on the platform.
Transactions on BusyToe are direct contracts between the buyer and the seller. As a neutral
party, BusyToe does not function as a traditional auctioneer. Although we might provide advice
on pricing, shipping, and listings, this guidance is purely optional, and users can choose
whether or not to follow it.
BusyToe does not review user-generated content or listings and does not guarantee the
existence, quality, safety, or legality of advertised items; the accuracy of user content, listings,
or feedback; the ability of sellers to sell items or services; the ability of buyers to pay for them;
or the successful completion of transactions. While we may assist in resolving disputes through
various programs, we do not guarantee these outcomes.
Before engaging in any transactions, buyers and sellers should finalize their agreements.
BusyToe acts as a conduit for obtaining services or goods but assumes no liability for any losses
incurred by any party during the transaction process.

8. Buyers must pay sellers directly, as BusyToe does not handle financial transactions between
them.
Global Marketplace:
Certain features of BusyToe allow your advertisement to be displayed on various websites,
services, apps, or tools (collectively referred to as “Platforms”) within the BusyToe community or
on third-party Platforms like social media sites. By using BusyToe, you agree to have your ads
shown on these other platforms and media channels.
Different countries where your advertisement is displayed may have additional laws or
regulations that apply to you. It is your responsibility to ensure that your advertisement
complies with the rules of any platform where it appears. If your advertisement is reported on
BusyToe or any other third-party platform, or if we believe it creates issues or violates any laws
or policies, we may remove it.
Abusing BusyToe:
To maintain a safe and functional community, the BusyToe community collaborates to report
issues, offensive content, and policy violations. We reserve the right to issue warnings, restrict
or terminate services, remove hosted content, and take legal measures against users causing
issues, violating rights, or acting against our policies. However, we are not obligated to monitor
data on BusyToe and disclaim any liability for illegal or unauthorized content or user activity,
regardless of whether we take action or not.
Fees and Services
While using BusyToe is generally free, there are instances where we may charge for specific
services. When you submit your advertisement, you will have the opportunity to review and
agree to any terms that apply if the service you use is paid for.
Any changes to our fee schedule will be posted on BusyToe so that you are informed. For
promotional events or new services, we may temporarily alter our rates; these changes take
effect as soon as we announce the promotional event or new service.
When BusyToe fees are due, it is your responsibility to pay them. If you fail to do so, we may
restrict your use of the services, without affecting any other rights or remedies we may have
under these Terms of Use or by law. We may use various collection methods to obtain the
money owed if your payment method is unsuccessful or your account is past due.
If we find that your ads violate our posting guidelines or any terms of use, either directly or
indirectly, your ads may be removed from BusyToe. If you paid a fee to display this
advertisement, you might be eligible for a refund. However, we reserve the right to deny a refund
under the following circumstances: – If we determine that you have violated these Terms of Use, including the Policies. – If your advertisements appeared on BusyToe websites, services, programs, or tools, even
briefly, and users benefited from the paid service. – If your ads are in “edit” mode and will appear live on the website once updated. – If you personally deleted your advertisements. – If you publish duplicate advertisements, as specified by our duplicate advertisement
regulations. – If we believe your advertisements are in an incorrect category.
Additionally, advertisements for goods and services like insurance and vehicle financing may
appear on BusyToe. BusyToe is not connected to or liable for any damages arising from these
transactions, even though users may advertise financial goods.
Display and Placement of User Ads
Our goal is to create a community where people can find what they’re looking for. Therefore,
several factors, including but not limited to the following, will affect how advertisements appear
or are positioned in search results: – The location and search query/category chosen by the user. – The category, content, location, and date of publication of the ads. – Whether a paid promotion appears in the advertisement.
Content
Content from us, you, and other users can be found on BusyToe. International treaties and
copyright regulations protect BusyToe. Copyright laws and international treaties protect the
content posted on or via BusyToe as a collective work and/or compilation.
You agree not to reproduce, distribute, or alter any content found on BusyToe without our
express written approval. It is prohibited to disassemble, decompile, reverse engineer, or
attempt to extract the source code from BusyToe.
You promise not to copy, reproduce, sell, resell, or use any part of BusyToe (aside from your own
content) for commercial or other reasons. By giving us content, you grant us the right—and
represent that you have the right—to exercise all copyright, publicity, trademark, design,
database, and intellectual property rights to that content in any media, including third-party
platforms and media channels. This right is worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, and
sub-licensable.
You specifically give us permission to use the content you provide on Platforms within the
BusyToe business group, as well as on other online marketplaces, blogs, social media channels,
and other marketing communications. Additionally, to the extent allowed by law, you waive any
moral rights you may have in the content.
Occasionally, BusyToe may supplement the information you provide in an advertisement with
data from third parties, such as descriptions, product specifications, and other content. You
may use this information only in connection with your advertisement on BusyToe. While your
advertisement is on BusyToe, you agree not to remove any copyright, trademark, or other
protections from the information you provide, nor to create any derivative works based on the
content (other than using them in your ads). BusyToe reserves the right to modify or revoke this
permission at any time at its sole discretion.
You may not have time to review every piece of additional information before publishing an
advertisement. BusyToe is not responsible for the accuracy of any additional data provided by
third parties. It is still your responsibility to ensure that your advertisements are truthful, do not
contain deceptive material, and comply with all BusyToe rules and these Terms of Use. Please
contact us if you discover any errors in this data after your advertisement is posted online.
Infringement
Posting content that infringes on someone else’s rights is prohibited. This includes, but is not
limited to, content that violates intellectual property rights, such as trademarks, copyrights, and
designs (e.g., selling counterfeit items).
Numerous services and products are sold by private sellers on BusyToe. Authorized parties may
report advertisements that violate copyright, trademark, or other rights and request their
removal. BusyToe will remove services and products that violate intellectual property rights if
reported correctly by an authorized party’s legal representative.
Reporting an Infringement:
To participate in the Notice of Infringement Programme, fill out the contact us form on
busytoe.com and report advertisements that may infringe on your property rights. The
information requested in the Notice of Infringement Form ensures that the reporting parties are
either the entitled party or their officially authorized representative and that BusyToe can
identify the advertisement to be removed. Once we’ve received your correctly completed form,
you can send subsequent reports to BusyToe via the provided email address.
Note: This form is for lawful owners of relevant intellectual property rights. The “Notice of
Infringement” helps rights owners ensure that products offered by BusyToe users do not infringe
their intellectual property rights.
Financial Products
BusyToe only acts as an introducer for financial products (such as insurance and unsecured
loans) promoted on this website. Users are advised to conduct their own research and consult
with an independent financial advisor before applying for these financial products. We do not
offer opinions or advice regarding the merits of any financial products we promote.
Liability
BusyToe currently has no agents or representatives, so we are not accountable for anything
uploaded or done by other users. We disclaim any liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or
physical injury caused by anyone claiming to be our agent or employee.
Most content on BusyToe is user-generated, and we do not control its quality, safety, or legality.
We do not monitor user postings or participate in transactions between users. We are not liable
for illegal, threatening, abusive, defamatory, obscene, or indecent content or any material that
infringes another’s rights. This includes transmissions encouraging illegal behavior, civil liability,
or law violations.
We cannot promise uninterrupted, secure, or error-free services, nor that any flaws will be fixed.
While we will make a good faith effort to ensure continuous service, we cannot guarantee it and
make no express or implied warranties regarding the functionality or availability of our
platforms.
Therefore, to the extent authorized by law, we explicitly disclaim any express and implied
warranties, representations, and conditions, including those pertaining to quality,
merchantability, merchantable quality, durability, fitness for a specific purpose, and statutory
requirements. Even if you notify us or we might reasonably anticipate that such damage may
occur, we disclaim all liability for any loss of money (including profit), goodwill, or reputation, as
well as any special, indirect, or consequential damages resulting from your use of, or inability to
use, BusyToe. Some jurisdictions do not permit disclaimers or exclusions of damages, so these
may not apply to you.
Release
In case of a dispute between you and another BusyToe user, you release us (and our officers,
directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures, and employees) from all demands, claims, and
damages (actual and consequential) of any kind and nature, known or unknown, arising from or
connected to such disputes.
Data Protection and Privacy
Failure to comply with these duties may result in disciplinary actions, including account
suspension.
As part of the services, BusyToe gets access to user data, including personal information
provided by customers and data generated during service delivery and processing (e.g., reviews,
sales analysis, correspondence). You obtain information through BusyToe.com and its affiliated
websites, services, applications, or tools that is necessary for transaction processing (e.g., the
contact details of the other user involved in a transaction) and aggregated data on the
effectiveness and analysis of your ads, partially linked to the information of other service users
(e.g., number of ad impressions, conversion rate, return rate).
BusyToe only shares user information with third parties as permitted by law or contract.
Upon the expiration of these Terms of Use, we will remove any information you submitted or that
was generated through your use of the services from your BusyToe account. However, we may
retain this information if required by law or for legitimate purposes even after these Terms of Use
expire. Typically, we will keep any aggregated data generated through the services (e.g.,
statistics regarding ads in a category).
Resolution of Disputes
If a dispute arises between you and BusyToe, we encourage you to contact us directly to seek
resolution. We will consider reasonable requests to resolve the dispute through alternative
dispute resolution methods, such as mediation or arbitration, instead of litigation.
General
These terms and the other rules presented on BusyToe supersede all previous agreements
between BusyToe and you. This Agreement does not intend to create or maintain any agency,
partnership, joint venture, employee-employer, or franchiser-franchisee relationship.
This Agreement is governed and construed by the laws of England and Wales. Any claim or
dispute you may have against BusyToe.com Limited must be resolved by the courts of England
and Wales. You and BusyToe agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English
Courts and, for claims within a County Court’s jurisdiction, to the County Court of Wandsworth.
If we do not enforce any particular provision, we are not waiving our right to do so later. If a court
strikes down any of these terms, the remaining terms will survive. We may automatically assign
this agreement at our sole discretion, as specified in the notice provision below.
This agreement is subject to change at any time. Modifications will become effective 30 days
after we post the amended policy on the BusyToe website or when you make your next post,
whichever comes first. Any other changes to this agreement must be submitted in writing and
signed by both us and the users to be valid.
