Service Description
Dirbsy is an online marketplace that connects Users with independent Workers. We facilitate the booking, payment and review processes but do not directly employ Workers, nor guarantee the quality of any individual Worker's work.

- Task Posters agree to pay for booked tasks per the quoted price plus applicable Service Fee.
- Workers agree to deliver services in a professional, timely manner and to maintain any required licenses, insurance or permits in the EU/EEA.
Booking, Payment & Cancellation
- Booking: Task Posters submit a task request; Workers submit offers; Posters confirm one offer to form a contract.
- Payment: Posters' payment method (credit card, SEPA, etc.) is authorized at booking; funds remain in escrow and are released to the Workers upon confirmation of task completion.
- Service Fee: Dirbsy retains percentage of the gross task fee as a Service Fee.
- Cancellation:
- Users may cancel free of charge up to 24 hours before the scheduled start.
- Cancellations within 24 hours forfeit deposit of the task fee as a cancellation penalty.
- Workers may decline or reschedule only for good cause; repeated no-shows may lead to suspension.
Ratings & Reviews
- After each task, both parties may rate and review each other.
- Dirbsy may remove content that breaches our guidelines (hate speech, defamation, etc.) or violates EU law.
VAT & Invoicing

Data Protection & Privacy

Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Dirbsy, its affiliates and their officers from any claims, damages or expenses arising from your breach of these Terms or your misuse of the Service.
Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
