Welcome to Task App, the website and online service of Task App ("Task App", "we", or "us"), doing business as Adaya AI Inc. ("Adaya"). Task App is owned and operated by Adaya as a product it operates. These Terms of Use ("Terms") are the terms by which you may use our online services, website, software, and offline services provided on or in connection with the service (collectively the "Service").
These Terms and the agreement thereto, applies to all visitors, and users of the Service, as well as the Privacy Policy and any other Task App policies you are provided from time to time. All those who access the Service shall classify as users ("Users") irrespective of whether they are approved to participate in the Service. Users are typically referred to as "Business Owner" or "VA". Business Owners or Freelancers and virtual assistants (VAs) refer to those types of Users irrespective of whether they have been approved as a "User". Even if you deactivate your Task App account, you may still be classified as a User for a certain period of time after your account is deactivated, as described in these Terms.
The use of the Service, either by access to the Service by you or a representative of your company, or the process whereby a User registers on behalf of a company, shall be intended to also bind that company to these Terms, as though the company itself was also a User. For the purpose of the Terms, the registration of a company shall classify that company as a User and bind it to the terms referred to herein. An individual accessing the Service as a User shall also have the requisite authority to act on behalf of the company that it is registering on behalf of, and shall not continue any further on the Service should the individual not possess that requisite authority. The use of the term "You" or "Your" within these Terms and throughout the Service shall also apply to the company whom you are representing.
BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE THROUGH ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT MEANS, CLICKING ANY SUBMISSION BUTTON OR CREATING AN ACCOUNT, YOU SIGNIFY THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS, WHICH FORM A CONTRACT BETWEEN YOU AND TASK APP. YOU ALSO REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND ANY COMPANY THAT YOU REPRESENT IN USING THE SERVICE, AND UNDERSTAND THAT THE COMPANY THAT YOU REPRESENT SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLYING WITH THE TERMS AND FOR A BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT BY ANY OF ITS REPRESENTATIVES. YOU ALSO CONSENT TO THE COLLECTION AND USE OF YOUR INFORMATION AS SET FORTH IN THE TASK APP PRIVACY POLICY, WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE AN APPROVED OR REGISTERED USER OF OUR SERVICE.
The Terms shall also incorporate by reference all agreements and policies referred to herein, including the Task App Privacy Policy and other policies displayed by Task App or provided to you from time to time. If you are based outside of the United States, you consent to Task App storing, transferring and processing your information (including your personal information and content) in and out of the United States.
In using the Service, you agree that, in addition to these Terms, you will use the Service in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations.
Task App may, in its sole discretion, modify or update these Terms, the Privacy Policy and any other policies from time to time, and so you should review this page, and those additional pages, on a frequent basis. When we change the Terms in a material manner, we will update the 'Last Updated' date on this page. Your continued use of the Service after any such change constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms or any future Terms, do not use or access (or continue to access) the Service.
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY TO ENSURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND EACH PROVISION. THESE TERMS CONTAIN A MANDATORY ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES PROVISION THAT REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS.
2.1 How the Service Works
Task App connects Business Owners and their work "Projects" or "Tasks" with VAs. A Project or Task is either (i) a description posted in the AI Slack App, or (ii) any work undertaken between a Business Owner and VA following an "introduction" (defined herein). The Service requires approval to register and participate from our community manager. Projects and Tasks are automatically recommended to the best VA for the job by our AI Robot channel. VAs must also apply to participate in the Service and cannot participate until approved by our community manager. When approved, VAs will be eligible to be invited to provide "Quotes" to undertake work on Projects or Tasks for Business Owners. There is no obligation upon a Business Owner to accept a Quote or to work with a VA.
2.2 What Task App Does
1. We operate the online and offline features of the Service. We are the administrator of the Service. We facilitate introductions between Business Owners and VAs. Participation in the Service as a User is at Task App's sole discretion.

2.3 What Task App Does Not Do
1. We do not make any representation (either express or implied) as to the suitability, reliability, capability, or qualifications of VAs for a particular Project or Task. We do not endorse or make specific recommendations about VAs or Business Owners. We merely facilitate the availability of information about these Users.
2. We do not negotiate contracts, statements of work, service agreements or other final project details and specifications. This is a matter for Users to negotiate amongst themselves.
3. We do not participate in the execution of work on your Project or Task. We are not a party to nor do we have any liability with respect to any agreement between a Business Owner and VA. We do not provide services to supervise or manage your project through Task App. We have no control over Business Owners or VAs, nor the work promised or rendered through any relationship between Users.

3.4 Independent Contractor Status

Transaction Fees - A transaction fee is a percentage of the payments between VAs and Business Owners using the platform.

These percentages of the total transaction are subject to change and we reserve the right to change them at our discretion.
PAYMENTS
5.1 Using the Service
Task App is currently free to join and access during the Beta period.
Task App's "Fees" are charged on either a (i) Project or Task basis or (ii) a "Placement" – when you hire someone to work for your company after they were introduced to you or your company through the Service.
As a part of the Service, you and your company agree to pay the Fees in accordance with the Terms, and agree that they are fair and reasonable. All fees are non-cancelable and non-refundable.
Under these Terms, "Work Fees" refer to the total fees payable by a Business Owner to VA for a Project or Task, inclusive of bonuses or other incentive payments (i.e. the total amount).
"Initial Deposit" payments refer to the initial payment made by a Business Owner prior to the commencement of a project, which shall be decided upon by the VA and Business Owner.
For the purpose of these Terms, being "introduced" or an "introduction" shall include any circumstance under which a User becomes aware of another User through interaction with the Service.
A Business Owner posts a description to which VA identifies the Business Owner (irrespective of whether the VA submits a quote);
A Business Owner posts a description and becomes aware of VA (irrespective of whether the VA submits a quote);
A Business Owner posts a description to which VA identifies the Business Owner (irrespective of whether the VA submits a quote);
A Business Owner and or VA communicate outside of the Service; or
Any other circumstance that Task App reasonably expects shall be subject to Task App's Fees within the spirit of the Terms of Use.
5.2 Types of Fees Payable to Task App
Fees payable to Task App "Task App Fees" are as follows:
Transaction Fees - A transaction fee is a percentage of the payments between VAs and Business Owners using the platform. We can charge different percentages to money earned by VAs and money paid to VAs by Business Owners. These percentages of the total transaction are subject to change and we reserve the right to change them at our discretion.
5.3 How Subscription and Transaction Fees are Calculated
Transaction Fees:
Prior to the commencement of work on a Project or Task, Business Owner and VA must notify Task App of the key terms relating to the Project or Task (including dates, milestones, fees payable to VA etc), and also provide Task App with any relevant and/or signed documentation (service agreements, contracts, statements of work etc). Business Owner and VA shall negotiate and agree Work Fees.
The following Transaction Fees are payable to Task App per Project or Task:
VA Fee
A percentage of the Work Fees shall be paid to Task App as a transaction fee. This "VA Fee" shall be deducted from the payment made by a Business Owner to VA. The VA Fee percentage is determined by Task App and is subject to change at our discretion.
Business Owner Fee
A percentage of the Work Fees shall be paid to Task App by the Business Owner as a transaction fee. This "Business Owner Fee" shall be added to the payment made by the Business Owner to VA. The Business Owner Fee percentage is determined by Task App and is subject to change at our discretion.
Task App Transaction Fees for a Project or Task shall be payable irrespective of whether a Project or Task is completed to the Business
Owner's satisfaction.
You acknowledge, understand and agree that these Terms contain provisions which require that Task App Transaction Fees be paid for all work undertaken by VA for Business Owners introduced through the Service, irrespective of whether those parties remain Users.
5.5 Payment of Work Fees and Task App Fees
For Projects or Tasks, Users are required to process all payments (i.e. the payments from a Business Owner to VA, the total of which comprise Work Fees) through the Service. Our community manager will assist in coordination of the payment process once Business Owners and VAs have agreed terms for a Project or Task. Task App will disburse Work Fees in accordance with the instructions of Business Owners (and, where applicable, VAs). By using the Service, you authorize Task App to manage process Task App Fees by deducting amounts from Work Fee payments for your Project or Task. You also authorize Task App to process payments for any work undertaken with parties to whom you were introduced through the Service. In cases of fraud, abuse or violation of these Terms, Task App reserves the right to setoff against any amounts due to you through the Service any damages or costs the Company incurs as a result of such fraud, abuse or violation.
In the case of a Placement, you will pay the hired worker(s) through your company, and any Placement Fees will be invoiced to your company by Task App and payable within fourteen (14) days of receipt of such invoice.
Please note the non-circumvention and disintermediation provisions in these Terms. Any violation of these Terms where you encourage or solicit any payments between Users outside of the Service is a breach of these Terms and will result in additional Fees being charged and liquidated damages being payable by the parties in breach.
Failure to pay VAs through the Service in accordance with an agreed payment schedule may result in the offending User(s) being removed from the Service and additional enforcement proceedings.
We do not hold funds on a Business Owner's behalf for more than thirty (30) days. Any payments made to Task App which are not applied to a Project, Task or released to a Business Owner within ninety (90) days of being paid to Task App shall be considered abandoned "Abandoned Funds". Abandoned funds shall become the property of Task App ninety (90) days after being paid to Task App, with no refunds permitted or other application to existing or future Projects, Tasks or other Business Owner spend through Task App under any circumstances. For the avoidance of doubt, Abandoned Funds are the property of Task App and cannot be used for future credit through Task App or any other purpose.
5.6 Taxes
Task App is a third party processor. Pursuant to Section 6050W of the Internal Revenue Code, we will provide a 1099-K form to the Internal Revenue Service for any VA based in the United States who is paid over $20,000 through the Service and participates in over 200 Projects or Tasks in a calendar year.
Other than as stated above, Task App has no responsibility for determining whether Users are required to submit tax forms. Task App will not (except as stated above) issue tax forms, and is not responsible for determining, remitting or withholding any taxes applicable to Work Fees and other Fees under the Service. You will be solely responsible for determining, remitting, or withholding any taxes applicable to Work Fees and other Fees under the Service, and you will be solely responsible for determining whether you are required by applicable law to file any tax forms or remit to the appropriate authorities any taxes or similar charges applicable. You are also responsible for the filing of any such tax forms and remitting any such taxes or charges to the appropriate authorities.
6.1 Obligation to Use the Service
To ensure that the Service functions as intended, when Users are introduced to each other through the Service, they agree that they must follow our Project or Task and payment procedures and terms.
From the moment you register as a User and for twelve (12) months after you terminate these Terms, or your account is suspended or deactivated, you agree not to:
Enter into agreement to become an employee of another User or other party to whom you were introduced through the Service;
Enter into an agreement to provide services for another User, User company, any affiliates (whether individually or through engagement of a third party or other entity), or other party, where you and the other User(s) or other party have been introduced through the Service; or
Approach, solicit, induce, entice, offer to perform services, receive services, consult with or for, or otherwise be engaged for reward (directly or indirectly) with any User introduced through the Service, in any other way than through the Service, without complying with the Project or Task payment processes and procedures, payment of Task App Fees, and other applicable clauses of these Terms.
6.2 Disintermediation
You agree to use the Service as your exclusive method to engage with other Users and parties to whom you were introduced through the Service, unless Task App agrees in writing.
You agree not to provide or receive services with or from other Users (or other parties to whom you were introduced through the Service) without processing all payments for work with those Users/parties and without engaging each other through the Service. We call this "disintermediation". Not only can it result in you and your company being permanently banned from Task App, it means you are not protected by the Service's features and will be liable to Task App for Fees, liquidated damages, and other enforcement action.
These obligations apply regardless of whether or not you and the other User(s) or parties had worked together previously or had any prior relationship.
Any action encouraging or soliciting payments outside of the Service is a violation of these Terms. You must notify us immediately if you are approached to perform or receive services outside of the Service. You also agree to accurately report all amounts paid between you and other parties introduced to you through the Service (whether Users or otherwise). Even if you have already engaged, contracted or retained a User or other such party outside of the Service, you must notify us in writing that this has occurred. You must also notify us if another User or party to whom you were introduced through the Service proposes making payments outside of the Service. Your failure to notify us may result in us enforcing our rights under these Terms, and you and your company being permanently banned from Task App.
6.3 Audit Rights
You acknowledge that an important part of maintaining the integrity of the Service is ensuring that Task App can enforce its rights in relation to exclusivity and non-circumvention of the Service.
You agree to:
create and maintain records to document satisfaction of your obligations under these Terms, as well as any contract for services that you enter; and provide copies of such records to Task App upon request.
Furthermore, you agree (whether or not registered with the Service) to maintain such records for a period of three (3) years following termination of the Terms, or suspension or deactivation of your account.
Task App, and any third party engaged by Task App (inclusive of its advisors and agents) shall have the right to routinely, up to a maximum of three (3) occasions annually, audit a User's operations and financial records to the extent required to confirm compliance with the Terms. Such audit rights extend to both Business Owners and VAs, whether or not they continue to maintain a Task App account. Audit rights shall last for a period of three (3) years following the termination of the Terms, or suspension or deactivation of your Task App account.
Nothing in this clause should be construed as providing Task App with the right or obligation to supervise or monitor the activities of services performed by Users, or former "Users" of the Service, as the case may be.
6.4 Additional Fees
You agree that if Task App discovers under an audit in accordance with clause 6.3 or other means, that you have breached the Fee payment obligations of these terms, and that we are owed Fees by you under these Terms, we shall invoice you, and you agree to pay, as liquidated damages in respect of such breach:
Fees equal to twice (2x) the Task App Fees payable that you would otherwise have been required to pay if you had complied with your Fee payment obligations through the Service; and
All of our reasonable expenses (legal, accounting, advisor and otherwise) in recovering any amounts owed to Task App under this clause,
(constituting a "Fee Event").
In addition, you agree that Task App shall be entitled to interest of ten percent (10%) per annum for all Fees owing under a Fee Event, or the maximum interest allowed under the applicable state law, calculated from the earlier of (i) the date any qualifying service commenced and (ii) the date of termination of the Terms or suspension or deactivation of your Task App account (if applicable).
You acknowledge and agree that amounts payable under a Fee Event are not a penalty, but rather a reasonable measure of damages payable to Task App. You agree that the foregoing is in addition to all other remedies Task App may have against you for any such breach, including remedies under law and equity.
Any parties subject to a Fee Event shall be permanently banned from the Service, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Task App. A Fee Event shall apply to all parties the subject of a transaction constituting a Fee Event, irrespective of whether they are, at that time, a User of the Service.
6.5 Summary
For the avoidance of doubt, in relation to this clause 6:
You accept and acknowledge that your obligations under these Terms, including this clause (around introductions, non-solicitation and audit rights) are reasonable in every respect.
You will continue to use Task App to process payments for Projects, Tasks and other work undertaken by parties introduced to you through the Service.
It is immaterial whether you continue to be a registered User of the Service and subsequently engage a User (Business Owner or VA) or former "User" outside of these Terms. The intention of these Terms are that you are required to continue to use Task App for twelve (12) months following termination of your account where you seek to engage or contract with parties or Users or other parties introduced to you through the Service.
Task App does not need to suffer or prove any demonstrated loss before enforcing its rights under the Terms.
After the aforementioned twelve (12) month period has ended, you are free to deal directly with parties or Users that you have been introduced to outside of the Service and independently from these Terms.
