Terms of Service
Effective September 2, 2026
These terms are an agreement between you and BaristaMatch LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("BaristaMatch," "we," "us," or "our"). They govern your use of the BaristaMatch website and mobile application, a marketplace that helps baristas and cafés discover opportunities and connect. By creating an account or using the service, you agree to these terms and our Privacy Policy.
1. Eligibility and accounts
You must be at least 16 years old and legally able to use this service. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use BaristaMatch only with permission from a parent or legal guardian. Work eligibility, permitted hours, and any required work authorization remain subject to applicable law. You must provide accurate account information, protect your login credentials, and not impersonate another person or business.
2. Marketplace use
BaristaMatch provides tools for profiles, job posts, applications, candidate review, and matches. We are not an employer, staffing agency, or party to agreements between users. Cafés control their hiring decisions, and users are responsible for confirming job details, eligibility, qualifications, compensation, and workplace requirements.
3. User content
You retain ownership of information, job posts, profile text, images, messages, and videos you submit. You give BaristaMatch a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, process, and display that content only as reasonably needed to operate, secure, and improve the service. Only upload content you have the right to use. You may report objectionable content or conduct and block another user through the available safety controls.
4. Acceptable conduct
- Do not post false, deceptive, discriminatory, illegal, or unsafe opportunities.
- Do not harass users, scrape profiles, send spam, or misuse personal information.
- Do not attempt to bypass security, access another account, or disrupt the service.
- Do not upload malware, unlawful content, or content that infringes another person’s rights.
5. Safety and employment decisions
Users must use reasonable care when meeting, interviewing, hiring, or accepting work. BaristaMatch does not guarantee a user’s identity, qualifications, job availability, conduct, or hiring outcome. Report suspicious activity and follow applicable employment, wage, safety, and anti-discrimination laws.
6. Availability and changes
We work to keep BaristaMatch reliable, but the service may occasionally be unavailable or change as features improve. We may suspend accounts or remove content when reasonably necessary to protect users, comply with law, or enforce these terms.
7. Disclaimers and liability
The service is provided on an “as available” basis to the extent permitted by law. BaristaMatch is not responsible for user conduct, employment decisions, lost opportunities, or indirect damages. Nothing in these terms excludes rights or liability that cannot legally be excluded.
8. Café access and future subscriptions
Barista accounts are free. Café payments are currently paused, and café accounts receive complimentary hiring access without entering a card or starting a paid subscription. If BaristaMatch introduces or resumes paid café access, the price, billing interval, automatic-renewal terms, included features, and cancellation method will be shown before checkout. No account will be automatically enrolled in a paid plan solely because it used complimentary access. Ending future paid access will not automatically delete your account or existing profile data. Any payment method offered will follow the rules applicable to the platform and storefront where the purchase is made.
9. Ending use
You may stop using BaristaMatch at any time and may request account deletion. Provisions that reasonably need to survive—such as ownership, safety, disclaimers, and legal obligations—continue after account closure.
10. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be handled in a court with proper jurisdiction in Miami-Dade County, Florida, unless applicable law requires otherwise. Nothing in this section limits a consumer right that cannot legally be waived.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as BaristaMatch evolves. We will post the revised terms with a new effective date and provide additional notice when required.
