By accessing or using the Village website, application, or any related services (collectively, the "Platform"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use, our Terms of Service, and our Privacy Policy.
If you do not agree to any of these terms, do not access or use Village.
These Terms of Use are a legally binding agreement between you and Village Technology Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Village," "we," "us," or "our").
2. Description of Service
Village is a web and mobile platform that connects homeowners with local, independent service providers through AI-powered lead matching and marketplace tools.
Homeowners can describe a service need by texting the Village phone number or visiting a Provider's storefront. Village uses artificial intelligence to classify the request and delivers relevant Provider profiles ("cards") via text message. Providers use Village to receive leads, manage quotes and invoices, and grow their business.
Village is a technology platform and marketplace. Village does not perform home services, employ service Providers, or guarantee the quality of any services. See our Terms of Service for full details.
