Terms of Service

Effective date: 2026 · Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia

Please read these terms carefully before using CareFinder. By submitting a job request or creating a caregiver profile, you agree to these terms.

1. What CareFinder is

CareFinder is a caregiver matching platform. We connect families who need care with caregivers who provide care. We are not an employment agency, a staffing company, or an employer.

CareFinder is a marketplace, not an agency.
Families hire caregivers directly. CareFinder provides the matching infrastructure, profile system, and trust tools — nothing more.
2. CareFinder is not the employer

When a family and caregiver enter into a working arrangement through this platform:

CareFinder is not responsible for collecting, processing, enforcing, or recovering payments between users.

All responsibilities associated with employing a caregiver — including payment, EPF, SOCSO, leave entitlements, and employment law compliance — rest with the family as the direct employer.

3. CareFinder is not responsible for outcomes

CareFinder does not provide medical services, nursing services, healthcare services, or clinical supervision. Any information presented on the platform is intended to assist with matching and should not be interpreted as medical advice, professional healthcare advice, or a certification of a caregiver's competence. Families remain responsible for determining whether a caregiver is suitable for their specific care requirements.

We take matching seriously and work hard to present accurate, verified profiles. However:

Verification on CareFinder refers to the documentation and confirmation process used by the platform. It does not constitute a guarantee of competency, professional qualification, fitness for a particular role, or future performance.

We urge all families to conduct their own interviews and due diligence before engaging any caregiver. A trial period is strongly recommended for all new arrangements.

4. Work permits and legal eligibility

CareFinder does not verify, screen, or guarantee the work permit status, immigration status, citizenship, visa status, right to work, or legal eligibility to work of any caregiver listed on the platform.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, CareFinder does not conduct criminal background checks, medical screenings, reference checks, or independent verification of professional qualifications.

By using this platform, both employers and caregivers acknowledge and agree that:

9. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of the platform after changes means you accept the updated terms.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Malaysia. Any disputes arising from use of this platform shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Malaysia.
