1 . Acquisition of Rights To Use The Platform
While all visitors to and users of the Platform are subject to these Terms, there are or may be certain areas or features of the Platform that may be accessed and used only by registered users, and your right to use certain other portions of the Platform may be subject to the submission of Platform Order(s) and payment of amounts due thereunder specifying the type, quantity and subscription term for such use. “Platform Order” means the web form, order form or other document specifying the kind and quantity of Platform Services and the related subscription term and fee, if applicable, submitted by you and accepted by us (which may be electronically). Fees may include, but are not limited to, membership fees for access to the Community, transaction fees for project engagements, and other applicable service charges. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may refuse to accept any Platform Order, or renew any subscription term, for any reason or for no reasons. A Platform Order shall be “Additional Terms” for the purposes of these Terms.
2. Project Engagement Process
A. General
Buyers and Providers may engage in a project where Providers provide services to Buyers (“Project Services”) coordinated through the Platform and/or the Community. Project Services are initially coordinated through the Platform in the following manner. A Provider may post information indicating the Provider’s qualifications and available for projects. A Buyer may post a project engagement proposal in the Platform. Each may then notify the other of their interest. When both parties are interested, they proceed to negotiate (via the Platform) pricing, timing, and other terms which are documented in a mutually acceptable agreement entered into between the parties relating to the Project services arranged for hereunder (“Project Engagement Order”).
B. Provision of Services – Generally
You acknowledge that: (a) the Terms do not constitute an employment agreement or create an employment relationship with us or any other person; and (b) any information that is provided or made available to a Buyer in relation to Project Services may be shared with the relevant Buyer, Buyer’s customers and other third parties.
C. Buyer Additional Terms
Buyers agree that by electronically filing a Project Engagement Order in the Platform, Buyer will acquire Project Services from the specific Provider named in that Product Engagement.
By filing a Project Engagement Order, Buyer agrees to pay any amount due to the Provider, plus our service fee. You also agree to pay any transaction fees associated with the payment option chosen by you, and any actual tax charges billed by us for remittance to appropriate tax authorities. You are solely responsible for: (a) determining whether either you or we are required by applicable law to remit to the appropriate authorities any value added tax or any other taxes or similar charges applicable to the Provider fees, and remitting any such taxes or charges to the appropriate authorities on behalf of itself or us, as appropriate; and (b) determining whether we are required by applicable law to withhold any amount of the Provider fees, notifying us of any such requirement and indemnifying us (either by permitting us to offset the relevant amount against a future payment of Provider fees or by refunding to us the relevant amount, at our sole discretion) for any requirement to pay any withholding amount to the appropriate authorities.
D. Provider Additional Terms
You agree that by electronically filing a Project Engagement Order in the Platform, you will provide the Project Service for the specific Buyer as specified in your Project Engagement Order.
Providers are responsible for compliance with all laws and regulations applicable to Provider’s provision of services, including any applicable professional conduct rules. For example, certain professions regulate the manner of selection or vetting of clients, prevention of conflicts of interest, payment of fees and reporting of payments, or similar issues. Providers may not utilize the Platform for transactions which cannot or do not comply with those requirements.
Each Provider represents that such Provider has not been:
· accused or convicted of, plead guilty to, or admitted committing, a felony or any offense involving dishonesty or deception (e.g., theft, fraud, etc.);
· sued for theft of corporate assets, fraud, breach of a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement, breach of fiduciary duty, or any similar action;
· subject to an order, judgment, action, or investigation of a court or any national or state regulatory or self-regulatory organization, such as the SEC or FINRA, relating to a violation of securities laws or an accusation of civil or criminal fraud or deceptive practices; or
· named on the Excluded Parties List System maintained by the U.S. General Services Administration, the Specially Designated Nationals list maintained by the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, or any other similar list.
We reserve the right to verify Provider representations. Providers agree to notify us if any of the above occur.
You, and not Teamwrkr, are responsible for any taxes, levies, or duties related to your transactions, excluding only our United States federal or state income taxes.
3. Teamwrkr Role
You accept and agree that our role in providing the Platform is to facilitate the connection for the performance of work and project. We do not provide and are not responsible for information or advice provided by Providers. We do not verify the credentials of any of its Providers. You understand and acknowledge that Providers are not employees or agents of ours but are independent service providers using the Product to make their services available services to Buyers. You acknowledge that we will not be liable for any loss or damage caused by your reliance on information provided by any other party.
You acknowledge and agree that any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or related to any engagement, transaction, or interaction facilitated by the Platform (“Dispute”) is solely between you and the other party to your transaction. You agree to resolve any such Dispute directly with the other party, without involvement or liability of Teamwrkr. We expressly disclaim any obligation to mediate, arbitrate, or otherwise participate in resolving such Disputes, and you hereby release and hold Teamwrkr harmless from any claims, damages, or liabilities arising from or related to any Dispute between you and another party of the Platform.
4. Account
You may be required to create an account and specify a password in order to access certain areas or features on the Platform. You may not impersonate anyone else when you create your account. You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information on your legal business name, address, email address and phone number, and maintain and promptly update this information if it should change.
In some cases, an account may be assigned to you by an administrator, such as your company or other organization you may be a member of, such as a consulting firm. If you are using or logging into an account assigned to you by an administrator, Additional Terms may apply to your use of the Platform. Moreover, your administrator may be able to access or disable your account without our involvement.
You may not share your account with anyone else. You agree to keep your password confidential, and you understand that your password should not be the same as passwords you use on other websites or other online accounts. If you believe that your account has been compromised at any time, please notify us at hey@teamwrkr.com .
5. Fees
A. Fees.
You agree to pay us the fees and other charges set forth in the Platform Order, which may include membership fees, transaction fees, and other service-related charges (the “Fees”).
B. Payment Terms.
Unless expressly stated otherwise in the Platform Order or these Terms: (i) all Fees are stated, and are to be paid, in US Dollars; (ii) all subscription based Fees shall be paid in advance at the commencement of each billing cycle and all other Fees which are indicated on a Platform Order to be charged in arrears, are due within fifteen (15) days from receipt of our invoice; and (iii) all payments and payment obligations under these Terms are non-refundable, unless these Terms or Platform Order is terminated as a result of our failure to cure a material breach, and are without any right of set-off or cancellation. In the event of disputed Fees, you shall timely pay the undisputed portion and provide a reasonably detailed written notice to us of the nature and amount of the disputed portion. The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days following our receipt of notice of the disputed portion of the invoice. If we do not (or our third party payment processing service provider, on our behalf, does not) collect a credit card, debit card, or another payment method from you at the time of purchase (a “Payment Method”), we will invoice you for the Fees, and we shall be entitled to do so via email to the applicable contact email address specified in the Platform Order and/or via functionality of the Platform. If you believe that we have invoiced you incorrectly, you must contact us no later than thirty (30) days after receiving the invoice in which the alleged error appeared; otherwise, you shall be deemed to have waived all claims in connection with the applicable invoice and payment.
C. Taxes.
Amounts payable under these Terms are exclusive of all applicable sales, use, consumption, VAT, GST, and other taxes, duties or governmental charges, except for taxes based upon our net income. You must provide a valid tax exemption certificate if claiming a tax exemption. In the event that you are required by any applicable law to withhold or deduct taxes for any payment under these Terms, then the amounts due to us shall be increased by the amount necessary so that we receive and retain, free from liability for any deduction or withholding, an amount equal to the amount we would have received had you not made any such withholding or deduction.
D. Payment Processing.
You represent and warrant that all payment and billing information provided is (and will remain) complete and accurate, and you have the right to use, and have obtained all necessary consents to enable, the necessary Payment Method, and make your purchase with such Payment Method. If applicable to the Payment Method, payment of Fees may be processed through a third-party payment processing service (which will receive and process your billing information), and additional terms may apply to such payments. You authorize us (and/or our designee) to: (a) request and collect payment (and to otherwise take other billing actions, such as refunds) from you on a recurring basis; and (b) make any inquiries we deem necessary, from time to time, to validate your designated Payment Method or financial information, in order to ensure timely payment of Fees (including, but not limited to, for the purpose of receiving updated payment details from your payment, credit card, or banking account provider – such as updated expiration date or card number). You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for how any third-party payment processor transmits, stores, uses, or shares your Payment Method information.
