Terms of Service

SeekFirst is a consumer-led marketplace. Consumers search for, or post, what they need. Businesses can then respond to those anonymous opportunities. SeekFirst puts the consumer in charge: you decide whether you hear from businesses, and whether you ever share who you are.

No unsolicited ads. We don't show ads, offers or business listings to consumers who haven't shown interest. Consumers only see businesses after they search, post a request, or open a business listing themselves. Businesses can't buy their way onto a consumer's screen.

Consumers stay anonymous until they choose to connect. Businesses only ever see an anonymous alias, plus what the consumer chose to post: the request details and the city or ZIP of the request. Your name, email address and phone number are never shown to a business unless you accept a connection with that business, and then only the details you choose to share.

Businesses must not try to work out who an anonymous consumer is, or contact them outside SeekFirst before they've chosen to connect.

You must be at least 18 to create an account. Each account is either a consumer account or a business account. Please give accurate details, including where you are (a city or ZIP code), and keep them up to date. Keep your sign-in details private; you're responsible for activity on your account.

A business account must be run by someone authorized to act for that business.

SeekFirst is free for consumers. You can search, save searches, post requests, compare offers, save favorites, leave anonymous reviews, and invite or suggest a business. You control which kinds of messages you get. You can opt in or out of each one, set quiet hours, or pause all marketing at any time in Settings.

Please only post genuine requests and honest reviews.

• Keep your profile, listings, prices and offers honest and current.
• Respond only to opportunities you can actually serve, in the areas you say you cover.
• When a consumer connects with you and shares contact details, use them only for that conversation and that job. Never add them to mailing lists, sell them or share them.
• An optional video ad must be a YouTube or Vimeo link you have the right to share. It plays only when a consumer chooses to watch it.
• Follow all laws that apply to your business, including consumer-protection, licensing and anti-spam laws.

Fees for businesses are explained in the Billing Terms.

You keep ownership of what you post: requests, messages, reviews, listings and profile details. You give us permission to store, display and send it as needed to run SeekFirst. Reviews are shown anonymously. We may remove content that's false, abusive, illegal, or that could identify an anonymous consumer.

• Send spam, or use SeekFirst to advertise to people who haven't asked.
• Harass anyone, post illegal or misleading content, or impersonate others.
• Scrape, copy or reverse-engineer SeekFirst, or interfere with how it works.
• Try to get around anonymity, opt-outs, quiet hours or pause-all-marketing.

We may suspend or close accounts that break these terms.

We send email about activity you've asked to hear about, such as new offers, requests, connections, statements and alerts. Every optional email has a one-click way to turn it off. A few essential account notices can't be turned off while you have an account; for example, confirming a connection or a change to pause-all-marketing.

SeekFirst introduces consumers and businesses; we don't provide the services businesses offer. Any agreement for work is between the consumer and the business. We don't guarantee the quality, safety or legality of any business's services, or that any request will get a response.

SeekFirst is provided "as is" and "as available". As far as the law allows, Copestone LLC isn't liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for disputes between consumers and businesses. Our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim (or $50 if you paid nothing). Nothing here limits rights you have that can't be limited by law.

You can stop using SeekFirst at any time. Email us to close your account. We may suspend or end access if these terms are broken, or if we stop offering SeekFirst; we'll give notice where we reasonably can.

We may update these terms. If a change is significant, we'll let you know by email or in the app before it takes effect. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Indiana, USA.
