INTRODUCTION

We are Streetbees.com Limited, a limited company registered in England (“Streetbees”, “we”, “us” and “our”). Our registered company number is 09177215, and our registered office is located at 10 Orange Street, London, United Kingdom, WC2H 7DQ. Our VAT registration number is GB197-413-384.

These are the terms and conditions for the website www.streetbees.com (the “site”) and/or for any web or mobile application we provide (the “application”). They set out the contractual basis on which you may access the site or the application and use our services. They apply to all users and visitors to the site or application. The site and application are operated by or on behalf of Streetbees and, by accepting these terms and conditions (the “Ts and Cs”), you will enter a contract with Streetbees.

Streetbees is a market research company, and we run various surveys (we call these surveys the “stories”) for individuals across the world (we call these individuals the “Bees”). As a Bee, you can complete one of our stories either through our site or through the application, by answering questions or uploading photographs or videos. Some of our stories are rewarded stories i.e., stories for which the Bees receive a reward for successfully completing and submitting a story.

Your use of any of the services offered on the site or application (the “services”) as well as your use of the site or application itself are subject to these Ts and Cs and by using any of them you agree to be bound by these Ts and Cs. You should print a copy of these Ts and Cs for future reference and, if you do not agree with any provision of these Ts and Cs, you should not use the site or application.

Use of your personal information submitted to or via the site or application is governed by our Privacy Policy.

These Ts and Cs were last updated on 14/11/2023.

USING THE SITE AND/OR APPLICATION

Access to the site or application is permitted on a temporary basis, and we reserve the right to withdraw or amend the services we provide on the site or through the application anytime without notice. We will not be liable if for any reason the site or application is unavailable at any time or for any period.

From time to time, we may reserve access to some parts of the site or application, or to the entire site or application, to users who have registered with us.

You are responsible for making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to the site or application. You are also responsible for ensuring that all persons who access the site or application through your internet connection are aware of these Ts and Cs and that they comply with them.

REGISTERING WITH US – BECOMING A BEE

To complete stories, you must first register to set up an account with us by completing the account registration form available on the site or by following the on-screen instructions in the application. You only need to register once.

To register, you must be at least 13 years of age, or any older minimum age required in your country to enter a contract and/or (if and when applicable) to consent to personal data processing. By using the site or application, you confirm to us that you meet this requirement and that if you are under the age of 18, that you have received permission from your parent or guardian before using the site or application.

To register, you must provide us with your mobile phone number. You will then receive an SMS with a verification code, which you will be required to correctly enter in order to complete the sign-up process. All other information to be provided for registration is detailed in our Privacy Policy.

You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide us. You must promptly update your account information online in the event of any change in this information.

Registration is subject to approval by us in all cases, and we reserve the right, in our sole and absolute discretion, to decline any application for registration, without having to provide any justification.

Once your registration is completed, these Ts and Cs should be considered as the basis for Streetbees’ contractual agreement with each Bee.

OUR SERVICES

The services we provide are described on the site and application.

You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for any usage you make of any of the services.

Once you have registered to become a Bee and set up an account with us, you become a member of our Bee community and you may start completing stories by answering multiple-choice or open-text questions or by submitting photographs or videos. You may choose which story you would like to complete from the list of available stories on the site or application. We may also contact you to invite you to participate in new stories or remind you to complete a story you have started, in accordance with the provisions of our Privacy Policy. Please follow the on-screen instructions to complete a story. You can save a story and come back to it if you do not want to complete it fully in one go. You must press the “Submit” button for your answers to be submitted to us.

Our stories may cover quite specific topics and it is possible that you may not have enough experience or knowledge around the topic for you to properly be able to answer the questions posed. Each story will usually begin by asking a few basic questions, in order to ascertain whether you have the necessary experience and knowledge to take part in the story. If we believe you do not, we will inform you that you are ineligible for that story, and you will not be able to continue. You will not receive any reward where you are deemed to be ineligible to participate in a story.

You agree that, by submitting any answers to our stories (the “story responses”), you grant us and our affiliates a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free and fully sub-licensable right and licence to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform and display such story responses (in whole or part) and/or to incorporate them in other works in any form, media or technology as set out in these Ts and Cs and our Privacy Policy. You also agree to waive any moral rights you may have in, or to be identified as the author, of such story responses. Moreover, and for the sake of clarity, said transfer shall apply in all cases, even if and when the story response includes personal data about you or another individual. If your story response includes personal data about another individual, you should make sure and warrant that this individual has consented to be bound by these Ts and Cs before you submit the story response. The intellectual property rights’ transfer on story responses explicitly includes all photographs and videos provided as part of completing a story.

You understand that we can keep your story responses for as long as we need to complete all the purposes for which they were gathered.

REWARDED STORIES

Once you have registered to become a Bee, you become a member of our Bee community and can start completing stories. Participating in these stories will make you able to participate in prize draws, earn rewards or have access to more stories as well as become a member of our Bee community.

Some of our stories are rewarded stories. These are stories where you will receive a reward for successfully submitting your story responses. Rewards may be in the form of a voucher, an entry into a prize draw, a payment to your PayPal, Segovia, Thunes, Wise or Upwork account, a bank transfer or another benefit.

The type of reward you will receive for the successful completion of a rewarded story will be displayed to you before you start the rewarded story. You cannot request a different form of reward to that which is indicated.

We are not obliged to honour rewards that are the result of obvious errors and which you should reasonably be expected to know are mistakes.

Where Streetbees considers your story response is ineligible or invalid, you will not receive any reward.

If you wish to participate in a rewarded story where the reward is stated to be in the form of a credit to your PayPal, Segovia, Transfer To, Wise or Upwork account, you will need to provide us with the email address associated with such PayPal, Segovia, Thunes, Wise or Upwork account, as well as with any other details which would be necessary in order to process such credit. It is your obligation to ensure you enter the correct details, failing which we will not be able to pay you. If the details associated with such PayPal, Segovia, Thunes, Wise or Upwork account change for any reason, it is your responsibility to update them on the “My Profile” section of the site or application.

We will not be responsible for any such payment being made to an incorrect PayPal, Segovia, Thunes, Wise or Upwork account, where we have paid the agreed funds based on the details provided by you at the time you completed and submitted the rewarded story.

Where a payment into your PayPal, Segovia, Thunes, Wise or Upwork account fails for any reason, we may contact you in the first instance, in order to find out why the payment was not successful. We may then attempt at our absolute discretion, to process your payment again, where we understand the fault was not due to incorrect PayPal, Segovia, Thunes, Wise or Upwork details.

Please note that such payments into your PayPal, Segovia, Thunes, Wise or Upwork account are governed by their own terms and conditions, privacy policies and other policies and, if we have paid the agreed reward to the agreed account on time, we cannot be held liable for any issue related to such payments.

Similarly, in case of reward taking the form of a bank transfer, if we have paid the agreed reward to the agreed bank account on time, we cannot be held liable for any issue related to such transfer, for which you should contact your bank directly.

STORY RESPONSES

You agree, warrant and understand that any story response you submit shall not:

  • contain, transmit, distribute, link to or otherwise make available, or advertise or promote any content that infringes any intellectual property rights or data protection, privacy or other rights of any other person, is defamatory or in breach of any contractual duty or any obligation of confidence;
  • contain another individual’s personal data unless this has been expressly requested by us and the individual has consented to be bound by these Ts and Cs before you submitted the story response;
  • be obscene, sexually explicit, threatening, abusive, harassing, inciteful of violence or hatred, blasphemous, discriminatory (on any ground), liable to cause anxiety, alarm or embarrassment, knowingly false or misleading;
  • breach any of the applicable laws and regulations or be otherwise objectionable;
  • impersonate any person or entity or otherwise misrepresent your relationship with any person or entity;
  • transmit or distribute any virus and/or other code that has contaminating or destructive elements.

Breach of the above will automatically make you ineligible for reward and may lead to immediate suspension of your account.

CHANGES TO THE SERVICE AND TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS

We may revise these Ts and Cs at any time by amending this page. You are expected to check this page from time to time to take notice of any changes we may be making, as they are legally binding on you. Some of the provisions contained in these Ts and Cs may also be superseded by provisions or notices published elsewhere on the site or application.

It is our policy continually to review and update our service offerings so that we reserve the right to make changes to any service, reward and/or to these Ts and Cs from time to time, provided that no such change will affect any story you have already started, or any reward already owed to you.

All major and material changes to these Ts and Cs will be notified to you, in advance of such changes taking effect whenever this is possible. If any change is unacceptable to you, you should cease using the site and application, as these Ts and Cs constitute the contractual basis of your relationship with Streetbees. If, however, you continue to use the site or application after the date on which such changes to the Ts and Cs come into effect, you will be deemed to have accepted those changes.

SERVICE SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION

We may, from time to time, with or without prior notice, temporarily suspend the operation of any of the services and/or of the site or application (in whole or in part) for repair or maintenance work or in order to update or upgrade any contents, features or functionality.

We may, with or without prior notice, terminate these Ts and Cs or any other contract between you and us in relation to the services (the “contract”) or suspend and/or terminate any service and/or your use of your Bee account in the event we determine, in our discretion, that you have breached any of the provisions of these Ts and Cs.

If you have breached these Ts and Cs, we may take such action as we deem appropriate. Such a breach by you may result in our taking, with or without notice, any or all the following actions:

  • issue of a warning to you;
  • immediate, temporary or permanent removal of any content submitted by you;
  • immediate, temporary or permanent withdrawal of your right to use any service;
  • immediate, temporary or permanent withdrawal of your right to use the site and/or application;
  • legal proceedings against you for reimbursement of all recoverable loss and damage resulting from the breach;
  • further legal action against you;
  • disclosure of all relevant information to law enforcement authorities as we reasonably feel is necessary.

The actions described above are cumulative but not limitative, and we may take any other action we deem appropriate.

We may terminate these Ts and Cs and your Bee account at any time for any reason by providing you no less than 30 days’ notice.

In case we decide to withdraw your right to use a service, the site or the application:

  • all rights granted to you under these Ts and Cs in relation to the use of said service, site or application will immediately cease;
  • the accrued rights, remedies, obligations and liabilities of each party as at expiry or termination shall not be affected, including the right to claim damages in respect of any breach of these Ts and Cs which existed at or before the date of termination or expiry;
  • any sections of these Ts and Cs which expressly or by implication have effect after termination shall continue in full force and effect; and
  • you must promptly discontinue all use of the relevant service, site or application.

We exclude liability for actions taken in response to breaches of these Ts and Cs. The responses described in these Ts and Cs are cumulative but not limitative, and we may take any other action we reasonably deem appropriate.

We may change the format, features and content of the site or application from time to time. You agree that your use of the site or application is on an ‘as is’ and ‘as available’ basis and at your sole risk.

Whilst we try to make sure that content on the site or application consisting of information of that we are the source is correct, you acknowledge that the site and application may make content available which is derived from several sources, for which we are not responsible. In all cases, information on the site and application is not intended to amount to authority or advice on which reliance should be placed.

You should check with us or the relevant information source before acting on any such information.

We make or give no representation or warranty as to the accuracy, completeness, currency, correctness, reliability, integrity, quality, fitness for purpose or originality of any content of the site and application and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all implied warranties, conditions or other terms of any kind are hereby excluded and we accept no liability for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of you or anyone else using the site or application or relying on any of its content.

We cannot and do not guarantee that any content of the site or application will be free from viruses and/or other code that may have contaminating or destructive elements. It is your responsibility to implement appropriate IT security safeguards (including anti-virus and other security checks) to satisfy your requirements as to the safety and reliability of the content.

The site and application may, from time to time, include links to external websites, which may include links to third party offers and promotions. We include these to provide you with access to information, products or services that you may find useful or interesting. We are not responsible for the content of these websites or for anything provided by them and do not guarantee that they will be continuously available.

SOFTWARE

Software may be made available for you to download in order to help the site or application work better. You may only use such software if you agree to be bound by the privacy policy, terms and conditions (this is sometimes known as an end-user licence agreement) and other specific policies that apply to such software. You will be made aware of any privacy policy, terms and conditions and other specific policies that apply to the software when you try to download it. If you do not accept such privacy policy, terms and conditions and other specific policies, you will not be allowed to download the software. You should read any privacy policy, terms and conditions and other specific policies carefully as they might contain provisions that set out what your legal responsibilities are when using software, what the software provider’s legal responsibilities are, and provisions that limit a software provider’s legal responsibilities to you.

All such software is solely for your personal and non-commercial use.

Using the software in an unlawful way (such as reproducing or redistributing it in a way that breaches these privacy policies, terms and conditions and other specific policies that apply to it) is expressly prohibited and may result in civil and criminal penalties.

APPLICABLE LAW AND COMPETENT JURISDICTION

These Ts and Cs, their subject matter and their formation shall be governed by English law, except if you live in a country (which, for these purposes, includes Scotland or Northern Ireland) of the European Union other than England, in which case there may be certain mandatory applicable laws of your country which shall apply for your benefit and protection in addition to or instead of certain provisions of English law.

Any dispute or claim in relation to these Ts and Cs (whether contractual or non-contractual) will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. However, if you are a resident of Northern Ireland, you may also bring proceedings in Northern Ireland, and if you are a resident of Scotland, you may also bring proceedings in Scotland. Moreover, if you reside in another country within the European Union, you may, in some instances, also bring proceedings in your home country.

The provisions of clause 22 above are subject to the mandatory provisions which could apply to you in terms of applicable law or competent jurisdiction because of the country where you are based or because of being a consumer.

As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to services not carried out with reasonable care and skill. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Trading Standards Office. Nothing in these Ts and Cs will affect these legal rights or equivalent in your country.
