Please understand that MILLIE Scouts will not make any representations or warranties, and will not render any opinions about the legal consequences of this transaction or the status of any building’s habitability which may be in question. See below for our full Terms of Service for more specific details.

Site Connect Clients with Scouts
The Site is a communications platform, which enables the connection between Clients and Scouts. Clients are individuals and/or businesses seeking to obtain services from Scouts and are therefore clients of Scouts, and Scouts are individuals and/or businesses seeking to perform services for Clients. Clients and Scouts are hereinafter referred to as “Users”.
Site Only Provides a Venue
The Site is a communications platform for enabling connections between Users for the fulfillment of Services, but MILLIE is not responsible for the performance of Users, nor does it have control over the quality, timing, legality, failure to provide, or any other aspect whatsoever of any Clients, nor of the integrity, responsibility or any other actions or omissions whatsoever of any Users. MILLIE does not have any control over the quality, timing, or legality of Services performed by its Scouts. MILLIE makes no representations about the suitability, reliability, timeliness, or accuracy of the Services requested and provided by Users through the Site whether in public, private, or offline interactions.
Scouts Vetting
Scouts can be subject to an extensive vetting process before they will be available to perform Scout Services, including but not limited to a verification of identity and a comprehensive background check, at the national and state level, using third party services as appropriate. Users hereby give consent to MILLIE to conduct background checks as often as required in compliance with federal and state laws and the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Although MILLIE may perform background checks of Scouts, as outlined above, MILLIE cannot confirm that each User is who they claim to be and therefore, MILLIE cannot and does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or reliability, identity or background check information or any information provided through the Site.
When interacting with other Users, you should exercise caution and common sense to protect your personal safety and property, just as you would when interacting with other persons you don’t know. NEITHER MILLIE NOR ITS AFFILIATES OR LICENSORS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT, WHETHER ONLINE OR OFFLINE, OR OF ANY USER OF THE SITE OR SERVICES AND YOU HEREBY RELEASE MILLIE AND ITS AFFILIATES OR LICENSORS FROM ANY LIABILITY RELATED THERETO. MILLIE AND ITS AFFILIATES AND LICENSORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, INJURY OR DAMAGE ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE.
Scout Work Classification and Withholdings
Each User assumes all liability for proper classification of such User’s Scouts as independent contractors or employees based on applicable legal guidelines.
Users do not have authority to enter into written or oral — whether implied or express — contracts on behalf of MILLIE. Each User acknowledges that MILLIE does not, in any way, supervise, direct, or control a Scout’s work or tasks performed in any manner. MILLIE does not set a Scout’s work hours or location of work. MILLIE will not provide any equipment, labor or materials needed for a particular task.
The Service is not an employment service and MILLIE does not serve as an employer of any User. As such, MILLIE will not be liable for any tax or withholding, including but not limited to unemployment insurance, employer’s liability, social security or payroll withholding tax in connection with your use of Users’ services.
Scouts who are command sponsored military dependents, performing services in foreign countries are solely responsible for any and all compliance under the Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA).
You agree to indemnify, hold harmless and defend MILLIE from any and all claims that a Scout was misclassified as an independent contractor, any liabilities arising from a determination by a court, arbitrator, government agency or other body that a Scout was misclassified as an employee (including, but not limited to, taxes, penalties, interest and attorney’s fees), any claim that MILLIE was an employer or joint employer of a Scout, as well as claims under any employment-related laws, such as those relating to employment termination, employment discrimination, harassment or retaliation, as well as any claims for overtime pay, sick leave, holiday or vacation pay, retirement benefits, worker's compensation benefits, unemployment benefits, or any other employee benefits.
Billing and Payment
Upon registration for a paid membership or Feature, User agrees to pay MILLIE at the prices then in effect, and you authorize MILLIE to charge your chosen payment method in connection therewith. MILLIE reserves the right to correct any payment errors even if it has already requested and/or received payment.
MILLIE may use third party payment processing services (“PPS”) to process credit card information. MILLIE expressly disclaims any and all liability whatsoever for any controversies, claims, suits, injuries, loss, harm and/or damages, arising from and/or in any way related to MILLIE’s use of a third party PPS, including without limitation for any damage that may result should any such information be released to any third parties. For further information about MILLIE’s use of a PPS, please contact MILLIE by email at info@gomillie.com
Clients of the Site and Services contract for service directly with Scouts. MILLIE will not be a party to any contracts or transactions for Services.
Clients will be responsible for paying the invoice for each Service (or task) a Scout has completed (the “Invoice”), which will include the pricing terms of the Service agreed with and provided by a Scout (“Service Payment”), any out of pocket expenses agreed with and submitted by a Scout in connection with the Service, any tip or gratuity, if applicable.
Within 24 hours after Client receives confirmation that a Service has been completed, Client will provide Client's payment details to the PPS for processing of Service Payment, out of pocket expenses owed to the Scout, any tip or gratuity, if applicable. You may be charged a cancellation fee if you book a Scout, but cancel it before it is completed, as set forth in the Service pricing terms.
Users may be required to register with the PPS, agree to Terms of Service of the PPS and go through a vetting process at the request of the PPS to set up their account with the PPS. Please note that MILLIE is not a party to any agreement between individual Users and PPS and that you, the PPS and any other parties listed in the PPS Agreement are the parties to the PPS Agreement and that MILLIE has no obligations or liability to any User under the PPS Agreement.
Users of the Service will be liable for any taxes (including VAT, if applicable) required to be paid on the Services provided under the Agreement.
Release
The Site is only a venue for connecting Users. Because MILLIE is not involved in the actual contact between Users or in the completion of the Service, in the event that you have a dispute with one or more Users, you release MILLIE (and its officers, directors, agents, investors, subsidiaries and employees) from any and all claims, demands, damages (actual or consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.
MILLIE expressly disclaims any liability that may arise between Users of its Service.
Liability of Scouts and Clients to Each Other
As a material condition of each Scout providing services to Clients, and as a material condition for each Client to procure services from Scouts, each User agrees to the following limitations on the liability of other Users:
Under no circumstances, except where prohibited by law, will any User (whether a Client or a Scout) be liable to any other User or any third party for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive or exemplary damages of any type or nature (including, without limitation, lost profits, loss of business, data or information) arising out of or in any way relating to the conduct of any User, any contract or agreement entered into between Users, or any in any way related to using or having used any services including, without limitation any services provided by a Scout. This includes without limitation any and all bodily injury, emotional distress, and/or any other damages, as well as any damages resulting from any User’s reliance on information obtained through the services, or transmitted to or by any Users or other interactions with Users.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, the aggregate liability of any User to another User arising out of or in connection with any agreement, contract, or engagement executed between Users (whether in contract, tort, negligence or otherwise) will not exceed the greater of (i) the total amounts paid or payable by the Client to the Scout in the twelve (12) months prior to the event giving rise to the claim or cause of action, and (ii) the sum of one thousand dollars ($1,000), except where prohibited by law.

Dispute Resolution
To expedite resolution and reduce the cost of any dispute, controversy, claim, suit, injury, harm, loss or damage related to the use or provision of the Site and Services, or the Terms of Use (“Dispute”), you and MILLIE agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding. Such informal negotiations will commence upon written notice. Your address for such notices is your billing address, with an email copy to the email address you have provided MILLIE. MILLIE’s address for such notices is MILLIE, 3427 N. Edison St., Arlington, VA 22207
Any Dispute that cannot be resolved during the informal negotiation period shall be settled by binding arbitration and conducted in accordance with these Terms of Use and the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Arbitration Procedures of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in effect, which can be obtained at any AAA office, at www.adr.org, or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.If there is any inconsistency between the AAA Rules and this arbitration provision, the terms of the arbitration provision will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent terms would result in a fundamentally unfair arbitration.
This arbitration provision will be construed and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.
Arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator chosen by MILLIE and both MILLIE and the User expressly waive entitlement, if any, to have any such controversy, claim, suit, injury, harm, loss or damage heard before a court or a jury. The arbitrator will base the decision on the evidence presented and in accordance with these Terms of Use and governing law, including statutory and judicial authority. The arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under the Terms of Use and applicable law. The arbitrator will issue a written decision, which will contain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision is based. The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding upon all parties.
Any such controversy, claim, suit, injury, harm, loss or damage shall be arbitrated on an individual basis, and shall not be consolidated in any arbitration with any controversy, claim, suit, injury, harm, loss or damage of any other party. However, this representative action waiver may be severed if it would otherwise render the Terms of Use or this arbitration provision unenforceable in any action brought under a private attorneys general law.
The arbitration shall be conducted in Arlington, Virginia, and judgment of the arbitration award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. MILLIE may seek any interim or preliminary relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in Arlington, Virginia necessary to protect its rights pending the completion of arbitration. The User agrees to submit himself, herself, or itself to the personal jurisdiction of the State of Virginia.
Each party will pay the fees of his, her, or its attorneys, subject to any remedies to which that party may later be entitled under applicable law. The User will bear only those costs of arbitration that he, she, or it would have borne had the User brought a claim covered by this arbitration provision in court. If you demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, MILLIE will pay as much of the arbitration fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, disputes may be brought before an administrative agency to the extent applicable law requires access to an agency notwithstanding the existence of this arbitration provision. Nothing in this arbitration provision shall be construed to: (i) relieve any party of the duty to exhaust administrative remedies by filing a charge or complaint with an administrative agency and obtaining a right to sue notice, where otherwise required by law, or (ii) prevent either party from cooperating with a federal or state body as required by law. However, you understand that you are not entitled to a double recovery or eligible to receive any monetary benefit from any action brought by an administrative agency except as required by law.
To commence an arbitration against MILLIE, you must complete a Demand for Arbitration form located at http://www.adr.org/aaa/ShowPDF?doc=ADRSTG_004175, submit it to the AAA, and send a copy to MILLIE at:
MILLIE, Inc. Attn: Legal Department 3427 N. Edison St., Arlington, VA 22207
