Terms and Conditions for Services
DEFINITION OF TERMINOLOGY
Employer: any organization who purchases a service or post a project or a fixed term contract job on Profreeio.
Professional: professional (s) who is (are) working independently (as a freelancer or contractor or consultant) to provide a service to employer or working for Profreeio.
Professional service: when freelancer or professional issue a proposal to the employer to deliver a service.
Employer project: when an employer issue a proposal for a service or a scope of work.
Deal/Deals are services offered by freelancer.
Orders are when freelancer and employer come up with a formal agreement between the two parties.
MAIN TERMS OF SERVICES
Signing up and registration is for free at Profreeio. You agree to provide us accurate information and complete information. You are responsible to maintain confidentiality of information and we are not liable for any negligence or omission on your account. Profrreio may ask for an interview process before admitting you as a seller to ensure best sellers are recruited. If unsatisfactory, Profreeio reserves the right to reject your registration into the website.
Professionals should ensure that employers that they are working with are signed up and have a contract with Profreeio before providing any services to them. Therefore the Professionals should always start with that question when they are contacted and should ask employers if they have a contract in place and that contract is required before any services can be offered. Freelancer will decide on their hourly rate.
Employers pay Profreeio after the service is completed. If freelancer decides to provide a service to the employer, after agreement, Profreeio will pay the Professionals within 1 week after Profreeio has received the payment from the employer. All fees and payments are recorded under terms of payment.
All orders are done between the Professional and the employers through Profreeio’s platform. Professionals must fulfill their orders and may not cancel the orders once approved without reasonable cause, otherwise their status and reviews will be impacted.
Once Professional has entered into contact with employers on Profreeio all the payments and fee should be done under Profreeio for transparency as the commission will be based on the service delivered. Failure to do this will result into fraudulent action.
The professional is not allowed to work with any employer outside of Profreeio within 12 months after the last contact (this include any form of communication through Profreeio platform) or service was made through Profreeio. Any services completed as per the terms above will make the freelancer liable to the commissioning fee as per our payment terms conditions.
Professional must not accept any payment other than method of payment on Profrreio since the payment should be made to Profreeio and not to the Professional.
Pleas read our privacy policy to know more as we care about your privacy.
Professional may terminate the contract with us after successful completion of a project that has already started as per the agreed deal with the employer and the contract. However, the professional will still be liable for commission fee if he/she works with the same contractor within 12 months from the last time the service was delivered. If in our sole judgment you fail, or we suspect that you have failed, to comply with any term or provision of these Terms of Service, we also may terminate this agreement at any time without notice and you will remain liable for all amounts due up to and including the date of termination; and/or accordingly may deny you access to our Services (or any part thereof).
