INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR RELATIONSHIP
You and Gigpro agree that no partnership, joint venture, employee, or employer relationship is intended by these Terms. You agree not to hold yourself out as in any way sponsored by, affiliated with, endorsed by, in partnership or venture with, nor as an employee or employer of us, any of our Partners, affiliates, or service providers. You are not an agent of Gigpro and you shall have no legal authority to enter into contracts on Gigpro’s behalf or otherwise bind Gigpro in any way and must not represent to any third party that you are authorized to make any commitment or otherwise act on behalf of Gigpro. Pros agree not to hold themselves out as in any way sponsored by, affiliated with, endorsed by, in partnership or venture with, nor as an employee or employer of any Business, its affiliates, or any service providers as a result of providing the Pro Services. Without express written authorization from the Business, Pros are not an agent of Business and Pros shall have no legal authority to enter into contracts on Businesses’s behalf or otherwise bind Business in any way and must not represent to any third party that you are authorized to make any commitment or otherwise act on behalf of Business.
You will take no position with respect to or on any tax return or application for benefits, or in any proceeding directly or indirectly involving Gigpro that is inconsistent with your being an independent contractor (and not an employee).
As an independent contractor, Pros are solely responsible for determining which Gig Postings Pros respond to and Pros make the choice when Pros want to work.
Pros determine how, when, and where (in accordance with the Gig Posting) Pros will provide the Pro Services to Businesses.
Gigpro does not restrict a Pro’s right to provide services through third parties, including through competitors of Gigpro; Gigpro expects the individual performing services as a Pro will likely provide services for or through other companies.
Pro acknowledges and represents Pro can earn income from other sources; Gigpro does not guarantee the Pro any minimum number of Gigs.
Gigpro does not provide a performance assessment for Pros, and does not oversee the actual work or instruct the individual as to how the work will be performed, or the method or process the Pro uses to perform Pro Services.
Gigpro does not pay a salary or hourly rate but rather facilitates Business’s payment of the rate set by the Business.
Gigpro does not provide tools, equipment, benefits, or expense reimbursement to the Pro.
Gigpro does not combine its business operations in any way with the Pro’s business, but instead maintains such operations as separate and distinct.
You are responsible for obtaining and maintaining any required registration, licenses, or other authorization necessary to render or receive Pro Services.
Benefits and Contributions. You are not entitled to or eligible for any benefits that Gigpro, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates or other related entities may make available to its employees, such as group insurance, profit-sharing or retirement benefits. Because Pro is an independent contractor, Gigpro will not withhold or make payments for social security, make unemployment insurance or disability insurance contributions, or obtain workers’ compensation insurance on Pro’s behalf. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, a Pro is reclassified as an employee of Gigpro by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), the U.S. Department of Labor (“DOL”), or any other federal, state or foreign court or agency, Pro agree that Pro will not, as the result of such reclassification, be entitled to or eligible for, on either a prospective or retrospective basis, any employee benefits under any plans or programs established or maintained by either the Business or its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates or related entities, or by Gigpro, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates or other related entities.
Taxes. Pros are solely responsible for filing all tax returns and submitting all Payments as required by any federal, state, local, or foreign tax authority arising from the payment of Payments to you under these Terms, and Pros agree to do so in a timely manner. Pros will comply with all applicable federal, state, local, and foreign laws governing self-employed individuals, including laws requiring the payment of taxes, such as income and employment taxes, and social security, disability and other contributions. To the extent required by the IRS, Gigpro will report the Payments paid to Pro for Pro Services rendered as part of Gigs by filing Form 1099-K and/or 1099-NEC (as applicable) with IRS. Pros consent to electronic delivery of such form(s), if such form(s) is required or filed. Pros agree to indemnify and hold harmless Gigpro for the cost of any tax liabilities (including, but not limited to, penalties, assessments, fines, and interest) incurred by Gigpro as a result of a Pros failure to pay all applicable taxes in a timely manner.
Insurance. Gigpro requires all Pros to obtain and maintain a valid and sufficient Occupational Accident Insurance (“OAI”) policy. However, Gigpro will not be responsible for any Pros failure to comply with this requirement. Gigpro will deduct from each Payment a small portion of the Payment for each hour worked and billed for each Gig for which a Pro provides Pro Services. While Businesses shall have the sole responsibility for any obligations or liabilities to Pros or other third parties that arise from the Business arranging and obtaining and using Pro Services, Pros will be and are required to maintain OAI through the Platform. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for taking such precautions as may be reasonable and proper for a temporary labor relationship, which may include maintaining adequate insurance that meets the requirements of all applicable laws regarding any acts or omissions of a Pro, Business, or any third party. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Gigpro from any dispute arising in injury that may occur on the premises of a Business. Further, in the event that a Pro’s actions cause an injury to a third party while a Pro is working in the course and scope of performing a Gig, you acknowledge and understand that you will not be covered by any general liability or automobile liability insurance coverage that Gigpro may have, and that Gigpro is not making any commitment to defend and/or indemnify you in such circumstances, and specifically denies such obligation.
Delivery/Driving Services. Under no circumstances may Pros perform any driving or delivery services or any pick-up services of goods or services for customers or on-call driving.
Heavy Machinery. Under no circumstances may Pros perform any work with heavy machinery, including but not limited to forklifts, or self-powered, self-propelled or pull-type equipment.

You agree to maintain accurate, complete, and up-to-date information in your Account. Your failure to maintain accurate, complete, and up-to-date Account information, including having an invalid or expired payment method on file, may result in your inability to access and use the Software and Services, or Gigpro’s termination of these Terms with you. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your Account, and you agree to maintain the security and secrecy of your Account login credentials at all times. Unless otherwise permitted by Gigpro in writing, you may only possess one Account.
Pro hereby consents and authorizes us, our designated agents and representatives to conduct a comprehensive review of Pro’s background through a consumer report and/or an investigative consumer report to be generated for the ability to access the Software or Services. Pro understands that the scope of the consumer report/investigative consumer report may include, but is not limited to, the following areas: verification of Social Security number; current and previous residences; employment history, including all personnel files; education; references; credit history and reports; criminal history, including records from any criminal justice agency in any or all federal, state or county jurisdictions; birth records; motor vehicle records, including traffic citations and registration; and any other public records..
You may not authorize third parties to use your Account. You may not assign or otherwise transfer your Account to any other person or entity. Pros may not accept a Gig and have someone perform in the Pro’s place. You agree to comply with all applicable laws when using the Gigpro Services, and you may only use the Gigpro Services for lawful purposes. You will not in your use of the Gigpro Services cause nuisance, annoyance, inconvenience, or property damage, whether to a Pro, a Business, to the Platform or to any other party. In certain instances, you may be asked to provide proof of identity to access or use the Gigpro Services, and you agree that you may be denied access to or use of the Gigpro Services if you refuse to provide proof of identity.
Account Confidentiality. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Account and login credentials. We reserve the right to invalidate your login credentials and require you to change them if we believe they have become unsecure. We may reject any user name that violates these Terms, including any user name that uses another person’s identity or that violates our community and content guidelines. We may use the email you provide to us in your Account profile to email you with service messages and updates. By creating an account you are consenting to the use and receipt of these communications.
Account Security. The safety and security of your information also depends on you. You should maintain good internet security practices. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential. You should not share your password with anyone. You must prevent unauthorized access to your Account and Personal Information by selecting and protecting your password appropriately and limiting access to your computer or mobile device and browser by signing off after you have finished accessing your Account. If your email account is compromised, it could be used to ask us to reset a password and gain access to your Account with us. If you think that your Account has been compromised you should change your account password, and in particular make sure any compromised login credentials do not allow access to your Account. The information you share in public areas may be viewed by other users. We will never email you to ask for your password or other account login information. If you receive such an email, please send it to us so we can investigate.
Text Messaging. By creating an Account, you give express consent that we may send you informational text (SMS) messages as part of the normal business operation of your use of the Services and that use of SMS is necessary to utilize the Services. You may remove your information by replying “STOP” to the SMS text message you received. After you send the SMS message “STOP” to us, we will send you an SMS message to confirm that you have been unsubscribed. Alternatively, you may submit your request by email to us, including the email address and phone number you registered with us, or by any reasonable means. After this, you will no longer receive SMS messages from us and be unsubscribed from the Service. If you want to join again, just sign up as you did the first time and we will start sending SMS messages to you again. For help, please reply to a text with HELP. Message and data rates may apply, depending on your cell phone plan.
By registering to become a Pro and confirming a Gig Posting, you agree to use your best efforts to perform the Gig such that the Pro Services meet the requirements and specifications of the Business for whom the Gig was created. Once a Pro has accepted a Gig Posting, the Gig will no longer be available for performance by other Pros who may have viewed the same Gig Posting. By accepting a Gig Posting, Pro is entering into a binding legal agreement with the Business to provide the Pro Services for the Payment specified in the Gig Posting. A Pro should not accept a Gig Posting unless the Pro is sure that: (1) Pro understands what Pro is being asked to do; (2) Pro can perform the Pro Services identified in the Gig Posting; (3) Pro can provide the Pro Services at and during the requested time (and, as applicable, being able to travel to the Business’s location). If Pro fails to show up at the Business location by the specified start time as noted on the Gig Posting, Business in its sole discretion may cancel the Gig Posting without any penalty to the Business. Please be aware that if a Pro fails to show up for a Gig it may adversely affect the Pro’s rating as a Pro. Please review our cancellation policy below. Failure to timely deliver the Pro Services consistent with the Business’s requirements will constitute a breach of the agreement with the Business, resulting in non-payment. Pro agrees to not possess, sell, receive, or operate under the influence of any illegal drugs or alcohol while performing any Gig.
You agree to comply with all applicable local, state, federal and international laws including, without limitation, privacy, intellectual property, and tax laws along with all other regulatory requirements.

Gigpro reserves the right to withhold or deduct credits or other features or benefits obtained through the use of Promo Codes by you or any other user in the event that Gigpro determines or believes that the use or redemption of the Promo Code was in error, fraudulent, illegal, or in violation of the applicable Promo Code terms or these Terms.

You agree Gigpro owns and retains all such rights that are protected in all forms and through all media and technologies now known or hereinafter developed. Users are prohibited from copying, downloading, using, redesigning, reconfiguring, or retransmitting any of these rights without Gigpro’s prior express permission in a signed writing, unless such use falls under an exception.

PAYMENT
Gigpro does not provide professional services and does not charge for professional services or services provided by a Pro. Gigpro receives a fee in exchange for using the Platform (“Platform Fee”).
Business understands that use of Gigpro and the Platform may result in charges (possibly in the form of a promotional credit) to Business for the Pro Services you receive from a Pro, which include the Payment and ther Platform Fee (collectively, the “Charges”). These Charges are due once you have posted a gig and accepted a Pro for the Gig and Gigpro reserves the right to pull payment from your account at that time and to bill you for any unpaid Charges at any time.
After the Pro accepts your Gig, the Platform will facilitate the payment of Charges using a third-party payment processor (“Processor”). Facilitation of payment through the Processor is subject also to the terms and conditions of the Processor. Businesses and Pros both agree that the use of the Processor is for convenience of payment and is built in at your request, and that use of the Processor is also subject to its own terms and conditions, which may also be subject to change. Once Businesses hit “Pay” Business’s transaction will be processed through the Processor, which will result in the deduction of OAI (as discussed in Section 4.N) from the Payment for each Gig worked and billed for OAI and/or other insurance. Businesses agree to facilitate payment to the Pro by clicking on the “Pay” button. Charges paid by Business are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by Gigpro. Businesses retain the right within the limitations of the Gigpro Platform to set the rate of Payment through the Platform when posting a Gig. Gigpro will respond accordingly to any request from a Pro to modify the charges for a particular Pro Service if necessary. Once Businesses have engaged a Pro, the Businesses are responsible for making payment to that Pro and Business agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Gigpro for Business’s failure to make timely payment in accordance with laws of South Carolina. If Business does not hit “Pay,” then Business agrees to allow Gigpro to extract the payment from Business.
By selecting the “Instant Pay” option, Pros may opt to receive their Payment within thirty (30) minutes, for which Gigpro will apply a three percent (3%) fee for expedited payment, otherwise Pros will receive Payment within about two (2) business days.
As between you and Gigpro, Gigpro reserves the right to establish, remove and/or revise Charges for any or all Services and Pro Services obtained through the use of the platform at any time in Gigpro’s sole discretion. Gigpro will use reasonable efforts to inform you of Charges that may apply, provided that you will be responsible for Charges incurred under your Account regardless of your awareness of such Charges or the amounts thereof. Gigpro may from time to time provide certain users with promotional offers and discounts that may result in different amounts charged for the same or similar services obtained through the use of the Services, and you agree that such promotional offers and discounts, unless also made available to you, shall have no bearing on your use of the Services or the Charges applied to you.
Service Charge
In consideration of Gigpro’s provision of the Gigpro Services for your use and benefit hereunder, Gigpro charges a Platform Fee that is a percentage of the Pro’s compensation for each Gig which is charged to the Business’s account when the Gig is completed. Gigpro reserves the right to change the Platform Fee at any time in its sole discretion. Continued use of the Gigpro Services after any such change in the Platform Fee shall constitute your consent to such change.
After each Gig, the Pro will be paid the Gig amount after all deductions are made. The amount will appear in the Pro’s account. Pros must provide their payment account information prior to receiving payment. Payments do not include withholdings for taxes. As an independent contractor, Pros are responsible for paying their own taxes separate and apart from the fees deducted by Gigpro.
In the event that a Business hires a Pro as a full or part-time employee within sixty (60) days after last receiving Pro Services arranged via the Platform, Business agrees to promptly notify GigPro of such hire and pay GigPro the then-current finders fee (“Finder’s Fee”) within ten (10) days of the date such Pro commences employment. The current Finder’s Fee rate is 0% of the Pro’s annual total compensation (including salary, wages, bonuses and tips).
Payment Methods
For Businesses, all Charges and Platform Fees are due immediately and payment will be facilitated by Gigpro using the preferred payment method designated in your Account. If Business’s primary Account payment method is determined to be expired, invalid or otherwise not able to be charged, Businesses agree that Gigpro may, as the Pro’s limited payment collection agent, use a secondary payment method in a Business’s Account, if available. In the event that there are unpaid or past due amounts for Charges, Platform Fees, or any other fees associated with a Business’s account, Business must pay a finance charge of the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum amount permitted by law on such outstanding balances, plus all expenses of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. Pros will be paid through the Processor.
Cancellation Policy and Fee. A cancellation fee may be charged under certain circumstances for cancellation. Cancellation notice is given through the Platform.
For Pros. If the Pro cancels a confirmed Gig with less than 24 hours notice, all the Pro’s confirmed Gigs may be removed. In addition: (i) if it is the first such cancellation, Gigpro may restrict the Pro’s ability to book any new Gigs for 7 days, (ii) if it is the second such cancellation within a 6 month period, Gigpro may restrict the Pro’s ability to book any new Gigs for 14 days, and (iii) if it is the third such cancellation within a 6 month period, Gigpro may restrict the Pro’s ability to book any new Gigs indefinitely and the Pro may be suspended. If the Pro fails to show up for a Gig with no notice, all the Pro’s confirmed Gigs may be removed. In addition: (i) if it is the first such failure to show, Gigpro may restrict the Pro’s ability to book any new Gigs for 30 days, and (ii) if it is the second such failure to show within a 6 month period, Gigpro may restrict the Pro’s ability to book any new Gigs indefinitely.
For Businesses.
In the event that Business cancels a confirmed Gig within 24 hours before the start time of the Gig, Business may be required and agrees to pay 50% of the Charges of the Gig, including both the Payment for the Pro, Stripe Fee, and the Platform Fee. If more than 24 hours’ notice of cancellation is given, there will be no charge to Business.
If Business instructs the Pro to stop work earlier than the time posted for that Gig, Business may be required to pay all the Charges associated with the Pro Services actually received and 50% of the Charges for any time remaining in the Gig. For example, for a Gig which is an 8 hour shift, if Business ends the shift after 4 hours, Business will be charged for the 4 hours the Pro worked, plus 2 hours (50% of the Gig time remaining but not worked).

To this effect, the parties shall consult and negotiate with each other in good faith and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a just and equitable solution satisfactory to both parties.

This agreement to arbitrate will be specifically enforceable under the prevailing law of any court having jurisdiction. Notice of a demand for arbitration shall be filed in writing with the other party hereto and with the AAA. The demand for arbitration shall be made within a reasonable time after the dispute has arisen, and in no event shall any such demand be made after the date when institution of legal or equitable proceedings based on such dispute would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations.

The parties agree to treat all aspects of the arbitration as confidential, as provided in the AAA Rules. Before making any disclosure permitted by the Rules, a party shall give written notice to the other party and afford such party a reasonable opportunity to protect its interests. Further, judgment on the arbitrators’ award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
