Service Provider Screening Process

Only the screened and a complete background checked service providers are displayed on UTZO Platform, UTZO Apps, and UTZO Websites. All service providers on UTZO platform carry UTZO Screening Seal. UTZO performs the following screening process before a service provider individual or a company operated is displayed on UTZO Platform, UTZO Apps, and UTZO Website. Only then UTZO seal of Approval and UTZO Shield Squad will be displayed on their profiles.

State Business Filling. We deeply check if the business is legit and is incorporated in the State in which it is located. Same rule goes for the service providers who are incorporated and all other Corporations and Limited Liability and Partnership Corporations.
Criminal Records. UTZO uses third party data search services to conduct a detailed criminal search, in the state in which the owner or the principal of the company is located, for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner or the principal of the business, within the three years prior to such service provider's application for membership in the UTZO platform, UTZO apps, UTZO website and every two years thereafter. UTZO's third-party vendor uses a national criminal database ("NCD") to screen our service providers. the comprehensiveness of the NCD varies by state. please be aware that the reporting in the NCD is particularly limited in the following states: AL, CO, DE, GA, ID, KS, LA, ME, MA, MI, MS, MT, NE, NV, NH, NM, SD, UT, VA, VT, AND WY. We try our best in performing the most comprehensive and thorough criminal record and back ground search, but yet UTZO don’t take or assume any responsibility for any information missed or not disclosed in the search process.
Identity Verification. UTZO verifies the “EIN” Employer Identification Number of the C or S Corporations, Limited Liability Corporations, and “SS” Social Security Numbers of Individual and Non-Corporate Service Providers to confirm their identity
Sex Offender. UTZO conducts the sex offender search in the states in which the owner or the principal of the company is located. This search is only made based solely on the name of the owner or the principal of the individual or the company-based service provider. UTZO does not conduct sex offender search from owners or principal of company’s finger prints or from other states outside the owner or principal’s state of operation and incorporation. We recommend you to do you own ex offender search from third party websites from other states for individuals that will perform services at your property.
Licensing. It is the law to hire only licensed contractor for improvements at your property. UTZO undergoes the rigorous and meticulous license search for individual or company operated service providers if they carry applicable required state-level trade licensing for the services you request from UTZO Apps, UTZO Website, UTZO Platform. Some states require the state-level licensing and some at local authority level trade licensing. Some States might require state-level licensing for projects above specific dollar amount and separate licensing for each trade. Some projects require sub-contractors to perform only trades in which they are qualified and licensed. There are also many trades in many states that do not require license or may require license if the project price exceeds certain dollar amount. UTZO gathers basic licensing information from third party resources and don’t guarantee the accuracy of such search, but we highly recommend you ask the service providers provide you with a copy of their license.
Insurance and Bonds.
Civil Judgement Search. UTZO carries a punctilious search for state level civil legal judgements, liens, bankruptcy filings, court proceedings, recovery cases against owners and principal of business or individual service providers in the state in which the owner or principle of the company is located.

YOU AND UTZO MUTUALLY AGREE TO WAIVE OUR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES IN A COURT OF LAW BY A JUDGE OR JURY AND AGREE TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BY ARBITRATION, as set forth below. This agreement to arbitrate (“Arbitration Agreement”) is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and survives after the Agreement terminates or your relationship with UTZO ends.

Except as expressly provided below, ALL DISPUTES AND CLAIMS BETWEEN US (EACH A “CLAIM” AND COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”) SHALL BE EXCLUSIVELY RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION SOLELY BETWEEN YOU AND UTZO. These Claims include, but are not limited to, any dispute, claim or controversy, whether based on past, present, or future events, arising out of or relating to: this Agreement and prior versions thereof (including the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof), the UTZO Platform, the Services, any other goods or services made available through the UTZO Platform, your relationship with UTZO , the threatened or actual suspension, deactivation or termination of your User Account or this Agreement, payments made by you or any payments made or allegedly owed to you, any promotions or offers made by UTZO , any city, county, state or federal wage-hour law, trade secrets, unfair competition, compensation, breaks and rest periods, expense reimbursement, wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, fraud, defamation, emotional distress, breach of any express or implied contract or covenant, claims arising under federal or state consumer protection laws; claims arising under antitrust laws, claims arising under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act and Fair Credit Reporting Act; and claims arising under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act, Civil Rights Act of 1964, Americans With Disabilities Act, Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, Family Medical Leave Act, Fair Labor Standards Act, Employee Retirement Income Security Act (except for individual claims for employee benefits under any benefit plan sponsored by UTZO and covered by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 or funded by insurance), and state statutes, if any, addressing the same or similar subject matters, and all other federal and state statutory and common law claims. All disputes concerning the arbitrability of a Claim (including disputes about the scope, applicability, enforceability, revocability or validity of the Arbitration Agreement) shall be decided by the arbitrator, except as expressly provided below.

BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND UTZO ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL FOR ALL CLAIMS, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. This Arbitration Agreement is intended to require arbitration of every claim or dispute that can lawfully be arbitrated.

(b) Prohibition of Class Actions and Non-Individualized Relief.

YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU AND UTZO MAY EACH BRING CLAIMS IN ARBITRATION AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS (“CLASS ACTION WAIVER”). YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU AND UTZO BOTH ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO PURSUE OR HAVE A DISPUTE RESOLVED AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THIS SUBSECTION (B) SHALL NOT APPLY TO REPRESENTATIVE PRIVATE ATTORNEYS GENERAL ACT CLAIMS BROUGHT AGAINST UTZO, WHICH ARE ADDRESSED SEPARATELY IN SECTION (C).

The arbitrator shall have no authority to consider or resolve any Claim or issue any relief on any basis other than an individual basis. The arbitrator shall have no authority to consider or resolve any Claim or issue any relief on a class, collective, or representative basis.

The exclusive means of resolving any dispute between you and UTZO or any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to or that have arisen based on use of UTZO App, UTZO Website and/or UTZO's services (including any alleged breach of these Terms and Conditions) shall be BINDING ARBITRATION administered by the American Arbitration Association, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE FEDERAL OR STATE LAW.

(c) Representative PAGA Waiver.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Arbitration Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by law: (1) you and UTZO agree not to bring a representative action on behalf of others under the Private Attorneys General Act of 2004 (“PAGA”), California Labor Code § 2698 et seq., in any court or in arbitration, and (2) for any claim brought on a private attorney general basis, including under the California PAGA, both you and UTZO agree that any such dispute shall be resolved in arbitration on an individual basis only (i.e., to resolve whether you have personally been aggrieved or subject to any violations of law), and that such an action may not be used to resolve the claims or rights of other individuals in a single or collective proceeding (i.e., to resolve whether other individuals have been aggrieved or subject to any violations of law) (collectively, “representative PAGA Waiver”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Arbitration Agreement or the AAA Rules, disputes regarding the scope, applicability, enforceability, revocability or validity of this representative PAGA Waiver may be resolved only by a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. If any provision of this representative PAGA Waiver is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason: (i) the unenforceable provision shall be severed from this Agreement; (ii) severance of the unenforceable provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the Arbitration Agreement or the requirement that any remaining Claims be arbitrated on an individual basis pursuant to the Arbitration Agreement; and (iii) any such representative PAGA or other representative private attorneys general act claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. To the extent that there are any Claims to be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction because a civil court of competent jurisdiction determines that the representative PAGA Waiver is unenforceable with respect to those Claims, the Parties agree that litigation of those Claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual Claims in arbitration.
