BONDPAY makes no representations, guarantees, warranties, or promises that this Website will identify any Operators that will meet the requirements of your Request.


    1. You and your preferred matched Operator will then be free to negotiate directly (and at your own risk) the terms under which the Operator will provide the Operator Services (the "Operator Service Terms") with the intention of formalising these in an Operator Services Agreement. You will be able to communicate with your matched Operators directly via this Website's online chat functionality (the "Messaging Tool") in order to address any questions that you might have about your Request, including the Operator Service Terms, the Operator's ability to fulfil your request and/or any special requests you may have.


    1. You must read and understand Operator Service Terms fully before accepting them.


    1. Once you and your preferred Operator have agreed upon the Operator Service Terms, you must exchange properly signed copies of the relevant Operator Services Agreement.

If requested to do so by BONDPAY, you must (whether you are a Subscriber or an Operator) promptly provide BONDPAY with a copy of the Operator Services Agreement and any amendments made to it.


    1.

    1. Operator Services Agreements and Additional Services Agreements are entered into entirely at your risk.

    1. 7.12.As the Subscriber, you acknowledge that, in addition to any remedies the matched Operator may have under the applicable Operator Services Agreement and/or Additional Services Agreement, any wilful or reckless breach of your obligations under such Operator Services Agreement and/or Additional Services Agreement will be deemed to be a material breach of these Terms entitling BONDPAY to terminate your user account.
