What glass.com agrees.
1. With Respect to Lead Purchasing Members:
  1. Glass.com receives requests from consumers (its "consumers") for certain services. In turn, glass.com may send you a communication about such consumer’s expressed service request need (a "Lead"). We may also send your contact information to the consumer. The information we provide about you will be based on the information you submit on your Affiliate profile (which you may amend from time to time) and may include Consumer Ratings and Reviews, and may be amended by us from time to time. Leads may also be sent to other Affiliates based on the category of the consumer request.
  2. We have different tiers of Affiliates so that you can distinguish your business as a Regular or Premium Affiliate.
  3. We do not guarantee to provide you any specific number of Leads, nor do we make guarantees, representations or warranties regarding a consumer’s level of interest, their desire to have work completed, their ability to pay you, the accuracy of the information provided by the consumers, or that any consumers will hire you to perform services, nor do we guarantee that you will successfully contact each consumer. We are not involved in, nor do we have any responsibility for your contracts with consumers, their creditworthiness, or any payments to you or any disputes they may have with you or you may have with them. Glass.com is free to contract with other Affiliates as this is not an exclusive contract, though any Lead sent to you generally will not be sent to any other Affiliate for a minimum of 4 business hours.
