1. Definitions and scope
These terms govern the use of the Biet Al Reef website, platform and related digital services, including the UAE Directory, provider pages, services and products, quotation requests, managed internal tenders and Weyaak tools.
- Platform means the Biet Al Reef website, pages and related digital services.
- User means any visitor, customer, project owner, service provider, supplier, factory, workshop, craftsperson or technician using the platform.
- Service Provider means any company, establishment, office, factory, workshop, supplier, craftsperson or technician presenting business details, services or products.

- Managed Internal Tender means a request reviewed and distributed by Biet Al Reef to selected parties when the customer requires additional options or quotations.
2. Nature of Biet Al Reef’s role
- Biet Al Reef is a digital platform for discovery, organisation, matching, communication and request management. It is not a contractor, supplier, manufacturer, engineering consultancy or accreditation authority unless a separate written agreement expressly states otherwise.
- Biet Al Reef does not become a party to a direct contract between a customer and a service provider merely by displaying information, forwarding a request or facilitating contact.
- A verification badge or published profile is not an absolute guarantee of quality, solvency or performance; it indicates only the review level described on the platform at the time of publication.
- Biet Al Reef may provide managed services, document preparation, mediation or internal-tender support under separate terms disclosed before the service is ordered.
3. Eligibility and business-profile requests
- Submitted information must be accurate, current, complete and not misleading.
- Commercial entities must hold all licences, permits and approvals required for the activities they offer under UAE law.
- An individual or technician must not claim to be a licensed commercial entity without a valid licence or authorisation.
- Biet Al Reef may reject, suspend or hide a profile or document that is incomplete, expired, misleading or not reasonably verifiable.
- The requester is responsible for the accuracy of submitted data and documents and for having authority to provide them for publication.
4. Registration, verification and public publication
- Submitting a business-profile request does not automatically approve a provider for public publication.
- Profiles, licences, services, products, offers, portfolios and service areas may be reviewed before publication.
- Approved content may appear on public Biet Al Reef pages, search results, directory cards, city and service pages and AI-assisted recommendations.
- Biet Al Reef may improve formatting, correct language and organise classifications without changing material commercial claims.
- Content may be rejected or hidden if it does not satisfy quality, safety, accuracy or legal requirements.
5. Customer and project-owner obligations
- Provide an accurate description of the request, location, measurements, images, indicative budget, timing and other information reasonably required to understand the scope.
- Review licences, specifications, the quotation, warranty, payment terms and delivery period before contracting with a provider.
- Do not use the platform for unlawful, misleading, abusive or rights-infringing requests.
- Remain responsible for the final provider or quotation selection unless a separate managed-service agreement states otherwise.
- Do not upload confidential, personal or proprietary material without authority to use or disclose it.
6. Service-provider obligations
- The provider remains solely responsible for the accuracy of licences, contact details, descriptions, quotations, indicative prices, images and service claims.
- The provider remains responsible for site visits, contracts, warranties, payments, delivery, execution and after-sales service.
- Business data and documents must be updated when they change or expire, and material limitations affecting performance must be disclosed.
- Providers must not upload content that infringes intellectual property, privacy, confidentiality or other rights, or contains misleading claims.
- Providers must comply with applicable safety standards, professional requirements, taxes, licences and permits.
7. Quotation requests and managed internal tenders
- A quotation request is not a binding contract unless a quotation is accepted and a clear agreement is concluded between the parties.
- Biet Al Reef may review the request and ask for further measurements, documents or specifications before creating an internal tender.
- Invited parties may be selected based on specialisation, location, available information and apparent ability to deliver or supply.
- Biet Al Reef does not guarantee a fixed number of quotations, the lowest price or acceptance by any provider.
- Comparisons may consider price, specifications, quality, timing, location, warranty and capacity; the final decision remains with the customer.
8. Contracts, payments and warranties
- Any direct contract, payment, warranty or commitment between a customer and provider remains the responsibility of those parties unless a separate Biet Al Reef service expressly states otherwise in writing.
- The parties should document scope, specifications, quantities, payment stages, timing, warranties, variations and cancellation before execution.
- Biet Al Reef is not responsible for funds paid outside officially approved and identified payment channels.
- Listing a provider, product or offer does not constitute a guarantee by Biet Al Reef of third-party performance.

- Unless stated otherwise, fees are in UAE dirhams and may be subject to VAT or other applicable taxes.
