Lemonfrog AG only brokers service contracts between service-seekers and service-providers. It does not itself become a contractual partner of such a service contract. In this respect, all disputes arising from such a service contract relate solely to the parties who have concluded the service contract. Lemonfrog AG therefore accepts no liability for damages or disputes arising from such a service contract between service-seekers and service-providers. The service-provider must independently obtain all necessary residence or work permits. The service-seeker has to insure the service-provider - as far as legally required - in a legally compliant manner or, if applicable, to inform the service-provider about the necessity of such an insurance.

Except if essential contractual obligations are violated, Lemonfrog AG shall be liable for damages vis-a-vis entrepreneurs only if and to the extent Lemonfrog AG, its legal representatives, senior executives or other persons employed by Lemonfrog AG in the performance of its obligations (Erfüllungsgehilfen) having acted with intent or with gross negligence. Should essential contractual obligations be violated, Lemonfrog AG shall be liable for any culpable conduct of its legal representatives, senior executives or other persons employed by Lemonfrog AG in the performance of its obligations (Erfüllungsgehilfen). The term "essential contractual obligations" means such obligations, the fulfillment of which is required for a proper execution of the contract, on whose compliance the contractual partner relies and may regularly rely and whose violation jeopardizes the achievement of the contractual purpose.

Vis-a-vis consumers, Lemonfrog AG shall only be liable for intent and gross negligence and, in addition, in the event of a culpable violation of essential contractual obligations (as defined in section 4.2), debtor’s default or impossibility of performance for which Lemonfrog AG is responsible, for any culpable conduct of its legal representatives, senior executives or other persons employed by Lemonfrog AG in the performance of its obligations (Erfüllungsgehilfen).

With the exception of intentional or grossly negligent conduct of legal representatives, senior executives or other persons employed by Lemonfrog AG in the performance of its obligations (Erfüllungsgehilfen), the liability of Lemonfrog AG shall be limited in its amount to damages typically foreseeable at the time the contract is concluded.

Lemonfrog AG accepts no liability for the compensation of indirect damage, in particular for loss of profits, unless there is intent or gross negligence on the part of its legal representatives, senior executives or other persons employed by Lemonfrog AG in the performance of its obligations (Erfüllungsgehilfen).

The aforementioned exclusions and limitations of liability vis-a-vis entrepreneurs or consumers shall neither apply in the event of specific guarantees having been made by Lemonfrog AG, nor in case of damages resulting from injury to life, limb or health or the violation of mandatory statutory provisions such as the Product Liability Act.

In order to offer your potential clients the greatest possible safety and reliability as a service provider, we offer profile verification by checking your identity using an electronic ID check.

For this purpose, we work together with PXL Vision AG, Mühlebachstrasse 164, 8008 Zurich. If you select profile verification as part of the profile settings, you will automatically be redirected to the external PXL Vision application for ID verification. The PXL Vision application then carries out the verification of your ID document data on its own responsibility. You will be informed by PXL Vision about the processing of your data in the verification process before the identification process begins.

You will be asked to photograph your identification document from both sides and take a short selfie video of yourself. PXL Vision then verifies that your ID is genuine and that your face captured in the video matches the ID. After successful identification, PXL Vision will ask for your consent to share the identity verification data with Lemonfrog, or the Lemonfrog website you use.

Upon your consent, PXL Vision will transmit to us the photo and video files taken during the identity verification process, as well as the personal data read from your identification document, for the purpose of matching them with your registered user data.
