IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION

THESE TERMS CONTAIN A BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION AND A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION RIGHTS. BY USING THE PLATFORM, YOU AGREE TO RESOLVE ALL DISPUTES WITH AQUA POOL CLEANERS, LLC THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.

1. AGREEMENT AND ACCEPTANCE

These Homeowner Terms of Service (“Agreement”) constitute a legally binding contract between Aqua Pool Cleaners, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Aqua,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), and the individual or entity accessing or using the Aqua website, mobile application, or related services (collectively, the “Platform”) (“Homeowner,” “User,” “you,” or “your”).

By accessing or using the Platform, creating an account, or clicking “I Agree,” you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Agreement.

If you do not agree, you must discontinue use of the Platform.

All pool cleaning services are performed solely by independent Cleaners.

Aqua does not:

  • Direct how services are performed
  • Supply equipment, tools, or chemicals

  • Guarantee licensing, certification, or insurance status

While Aqua may perform certain screening or verification measures, Aqua does not guarantee the character, conduct, licensing status, insurance coverage, or qualifications of any Cleaner and assumes no ongoing duty to monitor compliance.

You acknowledge that any services requested through the Platform are performed by independent third parties at your own risk.
