Disclaimer
ForeignHub (the "Platform") is an information-matching platform for foreigners in China and the people who serve them. Please read this disclaimer carefully. By registering, posting or browsing, you agree to its terms.
1. Our role
The Platform only provides a technical space for publishing information and matching supply with demand. It does not itself provide any housing, hiring, translation, airport pick-up, visa or medical service, and it does not take part in any transaction users arrange with each other. The Platform is not a party to any sale, employment or service contract.
2. Content authenticity
All listings (both offers and requests) are posted by registered users and are user-generated content. The Platform cannot verify every item for truthfulness, accuracy, legality or timeliness. A "verified" badge means we checked a business's basic registration details (e.g. business licence) and is not an endorsement of service quality, ability to perform, or transactional safety.
3. Boundary of responsibility
Any communication, agreement, payment or deal between you and another user is made by the two of you alone, at your own risk. The Platform is not liable for any loss, dispute, personal or property damage arising from such transactions, including but not limited to: advance-payment scams, goods not as described, services not performed, or false identities. Disputes should be resolved between the parties, or through the competent legal or administrative channels.
4. User responsibility and prohibited content
You are solely responsible for your content and conduct, and must comply with applicable laws. Do not post or engage in: pornography, drugs, human trafficking, immigration fraud, violence, politically sensitive content, scams, violations of privacy or intellectual property, or anything illegal or against public morality. The Platform may delete content, restrict accounts, and cooperate with authorities without prior notice. Screening covers content written in both Chinese and English.
5. Safety and anti-scam tips
To reduce risk: never pay or transfer money to a stranger in advance; never share bank passwords, payment verification codes or ID photos; prefer public meeting places; verify the other party's identity and agree the price and payment method beforehand. Anyone asking you to "pay first then meet", "scan a private QR" or "pay overseas on my behalf" is very likely a scam.
6. Reporting and takedown
If you find suspicious, false or violating content, use the report link on the listing or contact us via Contact. We prioritise such reports; confirmed content is taken down and repeat offenders are banned.
7. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Platform is not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential loss from using the service. We strive to keep information fresh and the system available, but do not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free or permanent service. Every listing here is valid for up to 30 days, then auto-removed and purged; expired content is not a basis for any claim.
8. Changes to this disclaimer
We may update this disclaimer from time to time; the updated version is posted here, and continued use constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, stop using the Platform immediately.
The Chinese version of this disclaimer prevails; the English version is for reference only. Questions? Reach us via Contact.
