服務條款 · Terms of Service

中文閱讀要點

以下是便於閱讀的中文說明，對應下方英文條款。涉及具體權利、責任和適用條件，請結合完整條款閱讀；有疑問可通過頁末郵箱聯繫 BAYLINK。

• BAYLINK 提供本地資訊發布與溝通工具。用戶之間的租房、買賣、接送和服務交易由交易雙方自行確認和履行。
• 請發布真實、合法的資訊，不得詐騙、騷擾、冒充他人、歧視或侵犯他人權益。請妥善保管帳號。
• 「手機號已驗證」表示完成過簡訊驗證碼驗證；「資料審核通過」表示資料經過 BAYLINK 人工審核。兩者都不構成政府認證、身份或執照保證，也不保證交易安全。
• 編輯推薦表示平臺選擇展示的內容。請仍然自行核實房源、商品、服務資質、價格和付款安排。
• 服務預約不在 BAYLINK 收取服務款項。預設提交的是待服務提供者確認的申請；只有頁面明確支持即時預約時，系統才可在時段有效且無衝突時直接確認。
• 待確認申請暫時佔用時段，在提交後 24 小時或預約開始時到期，以較早者為準。雙方可取消；當前更換時間需要取消原預約後重新申請，不能把提出改期當作新時間已確認。
• BayBay AI 和生活指南可能存在遺漏或錯誤。重要事項請核對原始資料，不能替代法律、財務、醫療等專業意見。
• 驗證碼由你主動請求；服務提供者預約簡訊另行同意，當前不向顧客發送預約簡訊。簡訊提交不保證送達，簡訊失敗不影響已儲存的預約與站內通知。

Service Booking Requests / 服務預約申請

A provider must complete phone verification or BAYLINK profile review before enabling service bookings. These checks do not certify government approval, licensing, identity, service quality or safety. Providers are responsible for keeping their published availability, service area and service details accurate. BAYLINK does not collect service payments through this booking feature; the parties must separately agree on the scope, price and any payment arrangements.

Bookings use request-and-confirm mode by default. Submitting a request does not mean the provider has accepted it. A pending request temporarily occupies its time slot and expires at the earlier of 24 hours after submission or the appointment start time. Cancellation, decline or expiry releases that reservation. A provider may explicitly offer instant booking; those bookings are confirmed only if the selected slot remains valid and available when submitted.

Either participant may cancel a booking through the site. To arrange a different time, communicate with the other participant, cancel the original booking and submit a new request. BAYLINK does not currently transfer an existing booking to a new time as one action, and a proposed new time is not a confirmed appointment. A provider can mark a confirmed appointment completed after its end time; passing that time alone does not establish that the service was performed.

服務提供者須完成手機號驗證或 BAYLINK 資料審核後，才能開啟預約。核驗不代表政府認證、執照或服務保證。請雙方確認服務範圍、價格和付款方式；平臺本功能不收取服務款項。預設申請須由提供者確認，待處理期間暫佔時段，到期、拒絕或取消後釋放。明確開啟即時預約的服務，仍須通過提交時的時段與衝突檢查。雙方可取消；更換時間請先溝通，再取消原預約並重新申請。服務結束後由提供者標記完成，系統不把時間經過自動視為已履約。

Small-group outings / 一起出門

小隊面向自行聲明年滿 18 歲的用戶；發起與申請加入須完成當前手機號驗證或平臺資料審核。驗證不等於身份、年齡或背景調查。每隊 2–8 人，包含隊長，首次見面請選擇公共場所。小隊申請只有被隊長接受後才佔用確認名額，不等於主辦方報名、購票或服務預約。BAYLINK 本功能不收款，也不提供接送或人身安全保證。

Members must self-declare that they are at least 18. Hosting and joining require current phone verification or BAYLINK profile review; neither verifies age or background. Groups have 2–8 people including the host and meet in public places. A request is pending until the host accepts it. Confirmation is a group coordination status, not an event ticket, organizer registration or service reservation. Members can leave, hosts can cancel, and material changes require members to reconfirm. AI prepares editable drafts only; users review and publish their own arrangements.

1. Use of BAYLINK

Users may use BAYLINK to browse, publish, and interact with local community information. Users are responsible for the accuracy, legality, and safety of the content they post.

2. Accounts

Users may need an account to post content, send messages, save information, verify a phone number, or use certain features. Users are responsible for maintaining the security of their account credentials.

3. User Content

Users are solely responsible for posts, listings, images, messages, comments, service descriptions, profile content, and other content they submit. BAYLINK may remove or restrict content that appears unsafe, misleading, fraudulent, illegal, spammy, abusive, discriminatory, or otherwise inappropriate.

4. Prohibited Conduct

Users may not:

• Post fraudulent, misleading, illegal, unsafe, abusive, or discriminatory content.
• Impersonate another person, business, official organization, or BAYLINK representative.
• Use BAYLINK for scams, phishing, spam, harassment, or unauthorized advertising.
• Upload malicious code or attempt to disrupt BAYLINK systems.
• Collect other users’ information without permission.
• Use BAYLINK to violate laws, housing rules, employment rules, consumer protection rules, or platform policies.

5. Local Listings, Housing, Services, and Transactions

BAYLINK provides an information platform. BAYLINK is not a party to transactions between users, landlords, tenants, service providers, buyers, sellers, drivers, or other parties. Users are responsible for verifying information, meeting safely, following applicable laws, and making their own decisions.

BAYLINK does not guarantee the quality, legality, accuracy, availability, safety, or outcome of any post, listing, service, rental, transaction, or user interaction.

6. Safety

Users should use caution when communicating, meeting, paying, renting, buying, selling, or hiring through BAYLINK. BAYLINK may provide safety tips, trust badges, phone verification, platform profile review, reporting tools, and moderation features, but these features do not guarantee that a user, post, or transaction is safe.

7. BayBay AI Features

BAYLINK may provide BayBay AI Guide, AI post-assist, AI suggestions, smart cards, safety tips, and other AI-powered features. AI-generated content may be incomplete, inaccurate, or not suitable for every situation. Users should independently verify important information and should not rely on AI output as legal, financial, medical, or professional advice.

AI-generated descriptions, translations, estimates or suggested times do not accept a service request or bind either participant to a time, scope or price. Review any draft before using it. Appointment status must be checked in the booking record.

AI 整理的需求、翻譯、估算或建議時間不代表服務提供者接單，也不替雙方承諾時間、服務範圍或報價。使用草稿前請自行核對，預約是否確認以站內記錄為準。

8. Phone Verification and Optional Booking SMS

BAYLINK may offer phone verification to improve account security and community trust. By entering your mobile phone number and clicking “Send verification code,” you agree to receive one-time SMS verification codes from BAYLINK for account security and community trust purposes.

These messages are transactional and used only for account security and phone verification. BAYLINK does not send marketing or promotional SMS messages under this verification program.

Message frequency varies based on your verification requests. Message and data rates may apply.

Providers may separately enable booking SMS for new requests, instant bookings and cancellations by customers. This requires a verified phone number and an available, configured SMS service. Phone verification alone does not enroll anyone. We record the consent version and time, enabled preference and verified number covered by consent; changing that number requires fresh consent. Booking SMS is not sent to customers and does not include marketing or scheduled appointment reminders. Frequency depends on booking activity.

You can disable booking SMS in booking notification settings. Follow the sender's STOP / HELP instructions for sender-level opt-out and help. The SMS provider manages that suppression; the BAYLINK setting does not override it. Opting out does not cancel bookings or disable in-site notifications.

Booking changes are saved in booking records and related in-site messages. An accepted SMS submission does not guarantee delivery. A failed or unavailable text message does not cancel or remove a booking; use the site to check its current status.

服務提供者在預約設定中另行選擇業務簡訊，並可隨時關閉；手機號驗證本身不表示同意。當前簡訊只通知服務提供者新申請、即時預約與顧客取消，不向顧客發送預約簡訊。按發送方說明回覆 STOP 可由簡訊服務處理退訂；站內開關不會繞過退訂狀態。簡訊可能產生運營商費用，提交成功不保證送達，失敗不影響站內預約記錄。

BAYLINK does not share SMS opt-in data or consent with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

BAYLINK's Privacy Policy explains how information is collected, used, and protected: https://www.baylink.us/privacy

10. Account Trust and Platform Profile Review

BAYLINK may provide phone verification, platform profile review, profile badges, or other trust features. A platform review is not government certification. These features are intended to improve community trust but do not guarantee identity, quality, licensing, safety, legality, or transaction outcomes.

11. Suspension and Removal

BAYLINK may remove content, restrict features, suspend accounts, or take other action if BAYLINK believes a user or content may violate these Terms, harm the community, create risk, or violate applicable law.

12. No Warranty

BAYLINK is provided “as is” and “as available.” BAYLINK does not guarantee uninterrupted service, error-free operation, accuracy of content, successful transactions, or availability of any feature.

13. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, BAYLINK is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for disputes, losses, harm, or damages arising from user interactions, listings, services, posts, transactions, or reliance on platform content.

14. Changes to These Terms

BAYLINK may update these Terms from time to time. Updated versions will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date.
