    2. Description of Services

    KC Water Removal operates as a lead generation and referral service that connects consumers with independent water damage restoration professionals and contractors ("Service Providers"). We do not directly provide restoration, repair, or any other professional services.

    Our role is strictly limited to:

    • Collecting information about your service needs
    • Matching you with one or more Service Providers in our network
    • Facilitating initial communication between you and Service Providers

    We act solely as an intermediary and are not a party to any agreement you may enter into with any Service Provider.

    3. No Contractor-Client Relationship

    IMPORTANT: KC Water Removal is NOT a contractor, service provider, or employer of any Service Provider.

    • Service Providers are independent third-party contractors and are not employees, agents, or representatives of KC Water Removal
    • We do not supervise, direct, or control the work performed by Service Providers
    • We do not guarantee or warrant the quality, safety, legality, or any other aspect of services provided by Service Providers
    • Any contract for services is solely between you and the Service Provider

    • Implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement
    • Any warranty that the Services will meet your requirements or be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free
    • Any warranty regarding the quality, accuracy, timeliness, or reliability of any information obtained through the Services
    • Any warranty regarding the qualifications, licensing, insurance, or competence of Service Providers
    • Any warranty that Service Providers will be available in your area
    • Any warranty regarding response times, which are estimates only and not guarantees

    5. Cost Estimates & Pricing Disclaimer

    Any cost estimates, price ranges, or financial information provided on our website are for informational and illustrative purposes only. We make no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy of such estimates.

    • Actual costs will vary significantly based on numerous factors including location, extent of damage, materials, labor rates, and Service Provider pricing
    • Cost estimates are not quotes, bids, or offers
    • You should always obtain written estimates directly from Service Providers before authorizing any work
    • KC Water Removal is not responsible for any discrepancy between estimated and actual costs

    By using our Services and providing your contact information, you expressly consent to:

    • Receive telephone calls at the number(s) provided, including calls using automatic telephone dialing systems, artificial or prerecorded voice messages, and/or SMS text messages, from KC Water Removal and/or Service Providers
    • Be contacted even if your number is listed on any federal, state, or internal Do-Not-Call registry
    • Have your calls recorded for quality assurance, training, and legal purposes
    • Have your contact information shared with multiple Service Providers

    TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:

    • KC Water Removal, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, including but not limited to damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses

    • We are not liable for any damages, injuries, or losses resulting from services provided by Service Providers, including but not limited to property damage, personal injury, death, or financial loss
    • We are not liable for any failure or delay in connecting you with Service Providers

    Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or limitations of liability, so some of the above may not apply to you. In such cases, our liability will be limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

    8. Indemnification

    You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless KC Water Removal and its officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, and suppliers from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from or related to:

    • Your use of the Services
    • Your violation of these Terms
    • Your violation of any rights of another party
    • Any dispute between you and a Service Provider
    • Any information you provide to us or Service Providers

    9. Binding Arbitration Agreement

    PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

    You and KC Water Removal agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Services, or any services provided by Service Providers (collectively, "Disputes") will be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify.

    • Arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules
    • The arbitration will be held in the county of your residence or another mutually agreed location
    • The arbitrator's decision will be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction
    • You understand that by agreeing to arbitration, you are waiving your right to a jury trial

    10. Class Action Waiver

    YOU AND KC WATER REMOVAL AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.

    Unless both you and KC Water Removal agree otherwise in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of class, collective, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may award relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim.

    15. Force Majeure

    KC Water Removal shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, pandemics, war, terrorism, labor disputes, government actions, power failures, internet disruptions, or Service Provider unavailability.

    16. Governing Law

    These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States and applicable state laws, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any legal action or proceeding not subject to arbitration shall be brought exclusively in the federal or state courts located in our principal place of business.

    17. Severability

    If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. The invalid provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while preserving the parties' original intent.

    These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any other legal notices published on our website, constitute the entire agreement between you and KC Water Removal regarding your use of the Services and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.

    19. Waiver

    Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not be deemed a waiver of that provision or our right to enforce it at a later time. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of KC Water Removal.

    20. Assignment

    You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights hereunder without our prior written consent. We may freely assign these Terms without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors, and permitted assigns.
