Users may also terminate this Agreement at any time. However, any obligations and liabilities made by Customer prior to termination of this Agreement shall be strictly enforced.
WORKERS, CLIENTS, PROJECT MANAGERS, AND LISTINGS
The Platform allows Users to post listings to assist with coding requests. Users capable of posting requests may, through their account, make a post identifying the compensation being offered for the coding requests (a “Listing”). Users should only submit honest and accurate Listings and responses to Listings.
The Content of Listings should not violate the intellectual property or proprietary rights of third parties.
“Client(s)” shall mean the entity responsible for paying for an approved Listing. Users who are capable of completing the work listed in the Listing (“Worker(s)”) are able to accept the job by performing the work requested and then submitting the work for approval from a User who has the authority to approve. Workers are expected to complete the request and deliver the finished product (“Product”) to the Client in a reasonable time. Any Worker who intends to begin work that the Worker would like to be considered for approval is expected to announce within the Listing that he intends to make a contribution. The owner of the repository that the work is being done within (“Project Manager”) or any other User with the authority to review a listing is expected to review the Product to make sure that the work is completed. If completed to the satisfaction of the Client may elect to approve the Product or may delegate the approval to any other User with authority to approve such as a Project Manager. Approvals shall be made at the approving party’s sole discretion. Upon approval, the User approving the Product shall accept delivery on the Platform and Client shall make agreed upon payment to the Worker. Worker may be required to provide metadata to work, as described in Boss documentation, in order for Client payment offers to be associated with work done, and therefore in order to receive payment. Worker understands that once Worker has submitted the Product, Worker has thereby provided a non-exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, and worldwide license to Client and Project Manager such that any part of the Product might be used by the Client or the Project Manager with or without compensation without violating this Agreement.
Project Managers must have Boss installed and active in the repository for Boss to function.
Boss merely provides a platform for the Listings. Boss does not have any responsibility or control over the Product, the Worker, the Project Manager, or the Client. Nothing in this Agreement deems or will be interpreted to deem Boss as Client’s, Project Manager’s, or Worker’s agent with respect to any Products, or expand or modify any warranty, liability or indemnity stated in the Agreement. For example, Boss does not guarantee the performance, functionality, quality, or timeliness of the Product or that a Client can or will make payments.
Boss may monitor your Listing. Boss may, but has no obligation to, monitor Listings on the Services. We may disclose any information necessary to satisfy our legal obligations, protect Boss or its customers, or operate the Services properly. Boss, in its sole discretion, may refuse to post, remove, or refuse to remove, any Listings, in whole or in part, alleged to be unacceptable, undesirable, inappropriate, or in violation of this Agreement.
Listing Cancellation. The Client or Project Manager may cancel their listing at any time before Product approval without penalty.
FEES
Once the Listing is posted by the Client, Boss may authorize the Client’s provided method of payment for the Listing compensation amount if authorization is possible with Client’s method of payment. Once the Product is approved by the Client or by the authorized Project Manager the compensation amount will be charged to the Client’s provided method of payment. The Worker will receive the compensation amount less a flat fee (“Flat Fee”), a percentage of the Listing price (“Commission”), and any applicable fees including but not limited to fees related to payment processing like foreign currency charges (“Processing Fees”). The Flat Fee, the Commission, and the Processing Fees are non-refundable.
Unless otherwise noted, all payments will be processed via a third-party payment processor. To post a Listing on the Platform the Client or Project Manager will have to provide financial information that can be charged for the work once the Product has been approved. The Worker must provide their financial information to the payment processor to allow the processor to distribute the money to Worker when Client accepts the project. For Workers who have not provided their financial information but have submitted approved products, Boss may notify the Worker when the payment is ready to be distributed by the payment processor.
All clients who post Listings and all Workers who submit Products agree to accept reviews. Reviews are only accepted for Listings and Products hosted through Boss and should not be used for any reason except to give honest feedback on the actions of the party over the course of the Listing transaction. Boss may, but has no obligation to, monitor review posts. Boss, in its sole discretion, may refuse to pose, remove, or refuse to remove, any reviews, in whole or in part, alleged to be unacceptable, undesirable, inappropriate, or in violation of this Agreement.
All Workers who submit Products are eligible to be included on the website’s leaderboard. To be featured on the leaderboard you must opt-in by accepting the opt-in settings in your account settings.
You also acknowledge, agree, and understand that Workers are solely responsible for determining, and have the sole right to determine, which Listings to accept; the time, place, manner, and means of providing any Worker Services; the type of services they provide; and the price they charge for their services or how that pricing is determined or set. You further acknowledge, agree, and understand that: (i) you are not an employee of Boss, and you are not eligible for any of the rights or benefits of employment (including unemployment and/or workers compensation insurance); (ii) Boss will not have any liability or obligations under or related to Service Contracts and/or Worker Services for any acts or omissions by you or other Users; (iii) Boss does not, in any way, supervise, direct, or control any Worker or Worker Services; does not impose quality standards or a deadline for completion of any Worker Services; and does not dictate the performance, methods or process Worker uses to perform services; (iv) Worker is free to determine when and if to perform Worker Services, including the days worked and time periods of work, and Boss does not set or have any control over Worker’s pricing, work hours, work schedules, or work location, nor is Boss involved in any other way in determining the nature and amount of any compensation that may be charged by or paid to Worker for a Listing; (v) Worker will be paid at such times and amounts as agreed with a Client in a given Service Contract, and Boss does not, in any way, provide or guarantee Worker a regular salary or any minimum, regular payment; (vi) Boss does not provide Workers with training or any equipment, labor, tools, or materials related to any Service Contract; and (vii) Boss does not provide the premises at which Workers will perform the work. Workers are free to use subcontractors or employees to perform Worker Services and may delegate work on fixed-price contracts or by agreeing with their Clients to have hourly contracts for Worker’s subcontractor(s) or employee(s). If a Worker uses subcontractors or employees, Worker further agrees and acknowledges that this paragraph applies to Boss’s relationship, if any, with Worker’s subcontractors and employees as well and Worker is solely responsible for Worker’s subcontractors and employees.
Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or should be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, franchisor/franchisee or employer-employee relationship between Boss and a User. Clients, Project Managers, and Workers must all comply with applicable labor, employment, and wage and hour laws. Client is solely responsible for and has complete discretion with regard to approval of any Worker for any Listing. Client is solely responsible, warrants its decisions regarding classification are correct, and assumes all liability, for determining whether Workers should be engaged as independent contractors or employees of Client and engaging them accordingly; Boss will have no input into, or involvement in, worker classification as between Client and Worker and you agree that Boss has no involvement in and will have no liability arising from or relating to the classification of a Worker generally or with regard to a particular Listing.
