Terms of Service
Last updated: 23 July 2026.
These Terms govern your use of HandyMan (get-handyman.com and the HandyMan Android app, together, the "Service"), operated by Bakhtiiar Ismailov in Astana, Kazakhstan ("HandyMan", "we", or "us"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and our separate Privacy Policy.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter a binding agreement. You may not use the Service if applicable sanctions or export-control laws prohibit us from providing it to you.
2. The marketplace
HandyMan connects clients with independent home-service professionals. HandyMan is not the employer, agent, insurer, or service provider of either party and is not a party to their service agreement. Professionals set their own offers, availability, and working methods. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, HandyMan does not guarantee identity, licensing, background, quality, availability, or results.
3. Accounts
You must provide accurate information and keep your credentials secure. You are responsible for activity under your account. You must be at least 18 years old to offer services as a professional.
4. Professionals, verification & safety
Professionals are responsible for legally required licences, permits, insurance, taxes, and safe work practices. A verified badge means that specified information or documents were reviewed; it is not a guarantee, endorsement, background check, or warranty. Clients should verify qualifications appropriate to the task and use their own judgement. Do not use the Service for emergencies; contact local emergency services instead.
5. User content & conduct
Requests, offers, profiles, photos, portfolio items, messages, and reviews are user-generated content ("UGC"). Before posting UGC, you agree that you have the necessary rights and that your content and conduct will comply with these rules.
- Provide truthful requests, offers, credentials, and reviews. Reviews must reflect genuine experiences.
- Do not post or solicit illegal services, fraud, scams, spam, malware, dangerous activity, or content that infringes intellectual-property or privacy rights.
- Do not post sexual or pornographic content, child sexual abuse or exploitation material, hate speech, threats, harassment, bullying, violent extremism, or content promoting self-harm.
- Do not impersonate another person, expose another person's sensitive information without permission, or discriminate unlawfully.
- Do not bypass security, scrape data, manipulate ratings, create fake accounts, or interfere with the Service.
You can report content or users and separately block users inside the app. We may review, restrict, remove, or preserve reported content; warn, suspend, or terminate users; and cooperate with authorities when required by law. Reports are assessed as promptly as reasonably possible based on severity. For urgent safety threats, contact local authorities.
6. Transactions & payments
Payments for physical home services are arranged directly between the client and professional unless the Service clearly offers another method. Each party is responsible for agreeing on scope, price, materials, cancellation, and payment. If optional paid platform features are introduced, their price, renewal, refund, and cancellation terms will be shown before purchase and the applicable app-store or payment-provider terms will also apply.
7. Intellectual property
You retain ownership of your UGC. You grant HandyMan a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, display, and transmit that content only as needed to operate, secure, moderate, and improve the Service. You represent that you have the rights needed to grant this licence. The HandyMan name, design, software, and non-user content remain protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.
8. Suspension, termination & deletion
We may restrict or terminate access when reasonably necessary to protect users, investigate abuse, comply with law, or enforce these Terms. You may stop using the Service and permanently delete your account in the Android app under Profile → Delete account, or use the process described in the Privacy Policy.
9. Disclaimers & limitation of liability
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available". To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim implied warranties and are not responsible for user conduct, the quality or legality of physical services, or indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.
10. Export controls & sanctions
You must comply with applicable United States and other export-control and sanctions laws. You may not use, export, or re-export the Service in violation of those laws or on behalf of a prohibited or sanctioned person or entity.
11. Governing terms
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan, without limiting mandatory consumer protections that apply where you live. If one provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain effective. We may update these Terms; material changes will be communicated in a reasonable manner before they take effect when required by law.
