Employer and Rifni

Project Agreement The engagement, contracting, and management of a project are between an Employer and Rifni. Upon acceptance of a quote, the Employer agrees to purchase, and Rifni agrees to facilitate, the services and related deliverables in accordance with the following agreements: (a) the agreement between the Employer and Rifni, including the Project Proposal, Project Description, and other terms and conditions as communicated on the Website or otherwise, (b) these Terms of Service, and (c) any other content uploaded to the Website by either party (collectively, the “Project Agreement”). You agree not to enter into any contractual provisions in conflict with these Terms of Service. Any provision of a Project Agreement in conflict with these Terms of Service is void. The Employer is responsible for managing, inspecting, accepting, and paying for satisfactory services and deliverables in accordance with the Project Agreement in a timely manner. Rifni is responsible for facilitating the performance and quality of the services in accordance with the Project Agreement in a timely manner. The Employer and Rifni each covenant and agree to act with good faith and fair dealing in performance of the Project Agreement.

Independence The Employer and Rifni each acknowledge and agree that their relationship is that of independent parties. Rifni shall facilitate services as an independent entity, and nothing in these Terms of Service shall be deemed to create a partnership, joint venture, agency, or employer-employee relationship between Rifni and the Employer. You acknowledge, agree, and understand that Rifni does not, in any way, supervise, direct, control, or evaluate any third-party service providers or their work, and is not responsible for any Project, Project terms, or Work Product.

Work Product Rifni is expected to facilitate the Work Product (deliverable or outcome) of the Project Agreement to the Employer unless a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) is signed between Rifni and the Employer. Rifni may request proof of work performed at any point for verification as per the Project Agreement.

Registered Users & Rifni

At Rifni, we take pride in ensuring the success of your projects. While we facilitate the process, it’s important to note that Rifni acts as a supportive partner rather than a party to the direct transaction between you and our professionals. We believe in your ability to choose the right professionals for your projects.

We are committed to upholding the highest standards of quality, safety, and legality in the services we facilitate. You can trust that our dedicated professionals are here to deliver exceptional results. Rifni stands behind the quality and safety of the services provided through our platform.

Third-Party Beneficiary of Project Agreement The Employer acknowledges that the value, reputation, and goodwill of the Website depend on their performance of their covenants and agreements as set forth in their Project Agreement. The Employer therefore appoints Rifni as a third-party beneficiary of their Project Agreement for the purpose of enforcing the obligations owed to, and the benefits conferred on, Rifni by these Terms of Service. The Employer further agrees that Rifni has the right to take such actions with respect to the Project Agreement or their Accounts, including suspension, termination, or any other legal actions, as Rifni, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to protect the value, reputation, and goodwill of the Website.

Agency These Terms of Service and any registration for or subsequent use of this Website by any user or Registered User will not be construed as creating or implying any relationship of agency, franchise, partnership, or joint venture between you and Rifni, except and solely to the extent expressly stated.

Rifni is not obligated to determine the applicability of any taxes or to remit, collect, or report any such applicable taxes.

5. RIFNI BILLING & PAYMENT SERVICES

1. When a Freelancer completes a project for an Employer, the Freelancer will prepare an electronic invoice (the “Invoice”) and submit it to Rifni through the Website. The Freelancer must submit an Invoice for each project. The Invoice will include details such as hours worked, payment amount, and project description (“Invoice Details”). Invoice Details will be considered final unless the Freelancer requests a review or waives this right. Rifni encourages all Freelancers to review Invoice Details. Rifni will forward the Invoice to the Employer, who will then submit the specified payment (“Payment”) to Rifni. When an Employer makes a payment through the Rifni Invoice Service, Rifni deducts the applicable Service Charges as described on the Website and remits the remaining Payment to the Freelancer.Invoice Disputes If an Employer reasonably disputes any Invoice, the Employer will pay all undisputed amounts within the specified time frames, and the parties will work together to resolve the disputed amounts. Payment of disputed amounts will be withheld until the dispute is resolved. Rifni’s obligation to pay any Payment (less applicable Service Charges) is contingent upon the following:
   • Rifni’s receipt of Payment from the Employer.
   • Resolution of all outstanding disputes related to the Invoice and/or Payment.

   Safe Deposit Service The Safe Deposit Service allows Employers to transfer certain payment responsibilities to Rifni.

   General At an Employer’s request, after the Employer has made payment to Rifni for services to be provided by a Freelancer, Rifni assumes responsibility for disbursing payment for the Freelancer’s services (less applicable Service Charges). These funds immediately become Rifni’s property upon receipt. However, Rifni commits to refund these funds to the Employer if either of the following conditions is met:

   • The Freelancer acknowledges that services were not completed.
   • The Employer and Freelancer conclude the Dispute Resolution Service process, determining that the Employer is entitled to the funds. Rifni keeps both parties informed of the Assumed Payment Liability’s status. If a party requests Dispute Resolution Service regarding this status, Rifni will notify both parties that the matter will be addressed through the Dispute Resolution Service.

   Safe Deposit Disputes If either the Employer or Freelancer reasonably disputes the quality or completion of services provided by the Freelancer, Rifni will not have payment obligations related to relevant fees until the dispute is resolved in accordance with Section 6 below. Rifni’s obligation to pay any Payment (less applicable Service Charges) is expressly conditioned upon the resolution of all outstanding disputes related to that Payment.

   Funds Transfer

1. General To receive funds due to you, you must request such funds and indicate your selection of the funds transfer methods available on the Website. Any such requests shall be subject to the conditions and restrictions contained on the Website and in these Terms of Service.

2. Hold On Transfers Rifni reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to place a hold on requested transfers if Rifni suspects monies may be subject to charge back, bank reversal, failure to clear or fraud. Rifni will release a hold as soon as practical.
