1.2. Who we are: Hobber Advertising L.L.C. is a company registered in the United Arab Emirates under the License Number of CN-3761457. We will refer to ourselves as “Hobber Advertising”, “Hobber”, “we”, “us”, or “our” in this document. Also, we will refer to ourselves and any other companies we are affiliated with, Vendors, and parents or subsidiaries as the “Hobber Group”. Hobber Advertising L.L.C. owns and operates this website, mobile applications, and any sites we have now or in the future that reference these Terms of Use (collectively, "Site" or, “Sites”).
1.3. What we do: We provide a platform where affiliated local Vendors and other sellers, (collectively, “Seller” or “Sellers”) can list hobs, and goods (collectively, “Hob” or “Hobs”). Users can use our Site to look for Hobs near them and can use our built-in search engine to find a Hob they are interested in. When a Hob is purchased, the user receives an electronic Voucher that contains the QR Code that will be used to redeem the Hob.
1.4. Legal Relationships: All Hobs that are purchased via the Site will be subject to the fine print of that Hob. Hobber is not responsible for any contracts formed between the user and the Seller and we will not be held liable to such contracts. The Seller is completely responsible for carrying out the purchased Hob by the user on our Site and for dealing with any claims or any other issues arising out of or in connection with the contract between the user and the Seller. As the platform operator, we have designed the platform to facilitate the transaction and purchase of these Hobs. This means that in addition to this Agreement, you may have other contractual relationships with different legal entities when you are using the Site. Finally, we are never the Seller’s or Vendor’s agent.
