Article 1. About the Service
The Service provides information and connections to help foreign residents in Japan and other users obtain information about everyday or business-related concerns and find professionals or service providers.
Right Place Japan does not itself provide professional services that must be performed by licensed professionals such as administrative scriveners, lawyers, judicial scriveners, labor and social security attorneys, tax accountants or other qualified professionals.
Article 2. Relationship between users and professionals or service providers
If consultations, requests, contracts or other transactions take place between a user and a professional or service provider through the Service, the relevant contract is in principle formed directly between those parties.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, Right Place Japan is not a party to such contracts.
Users must confirm the scope of work, fees, qualifications, services and other necessary matters directly with the professional or service provider before making a request.
Article 3. Registered providers
Professionals and service providers must register accurate and up-to-date information.
Right Place Japan may request confirmation of registration details, qualifications, business status or other matters when necessary to maintain service quality or for other reasonable purposes.
If registered information is inaccurate, these Terms are violated, or a listing is otherwise considered inappropriate, Right Place Japan may correct, suspend or cancel the listing.
Article 4. Beta version
The Service is currently provided as a beta version.
During the beta period, initial registered providers may receive registration and basic listings free of charge under separately displayed conditions.
