Intellectual Property License — Limited, Non-Transferable, Revocable — TaskRabbit

Share 𝕏 Share in Share 🔒 PDF

What it is

You are only allowed to use Taskrabbit's app and website for personal use — you cannot copy, reverse engineer, or redistribute any part of the platform, and Taskrabbit can revoke your access at any time.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Users have no guaranteed right to continued platform access — the license is revocable at will, meaning active task bookings, earned payments, and ongoing service agreements could be disrupted by a sudden access revocation.
