At Swifty, our goal is to enable anyone to find the right professional to accomplish any project, anywhere, at any time. Swifty, therefore, prohibits discrimination against professionals or customers based on age, disability, gender identity, marital status, medical condition, national origin, pregnancy, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, or other improper bases.

Prohibited discrimination includes refusing to provide or accept pro services offered through the platform because of any of these characteristics, offering different pricing based on any of these characteristics, or any other conduct that improperly considers any of these characteristics. This prohibition also applies to the posting of content, such as reviews or profiles, on Swifty.

Any pro or customer who believes they have been discriminated against in violation of this policy should report their concern to Swifty. Pros or customers found to have violated this prohibition may lose access to Swifty. We’re looking forward to creating a friendly and encouraging community for everyone.
