All such payments are stated inclusive of all sales, use, value added and similar taxes and no such tax amount shall be charged in addition to specified payments. The Client may select the Consultants that may view such Project. Any selected Consultant may choose to accept or reject such Project, negotiate the payment for the work in such Project, or negotiate the timing and means in which the work is completed. All negotiations are between the Client and the Consultant and do not involve ConsultantVue in any way. It is in a Consultant’s sole discretion to accept a Project under terms acceptable to such Consultant. Except as set forth below, once a Consultant accepts, or applies and is accepted for, a Project, such Consultant may not reassign the Project to any other person or entity, whether on the ConsultantVue Platform or not and such Consultant agrees to directly perform the work stipulated in the Project to the satisfaction of the Client. Once a Client engages a specific Consultant to complete a Project, such Client may not engage anyone else to complete such Project. Once a Client hires a Consultant for a Project, the Project between the Client and the Consultant is a legally binding contract between those parties. At the point of a Completed Project or or based on milestones or other terms agreed with the Consultant, the Client is obligated to pay the Consultant for the Closed Project. Both the Consultant and ConsultantVue have the right to pursue a claim against the Client for failure to make payment on a Closed Project.

Neither Client nor ConsultantVue will be responsible for reimbursing Consultants for expenses incurred while engaged in the performance of any Project, except for those enumerated in the Project and agreed to by the applicable Client. Consultants are not considered the owner of the funds in their account that they receive from Closed Projects until there is a validated TIN on file with ConsultantVue.

ConsultantVue reserves the right to change the Fee charged to Users at any time. ConsultantVue’s changes are effective immediately upon their inclusion in the Project forms. ConsultantVue may in its sole discretion change some or all of its services at any time, with or without notice. In the event that ConsultantVue introduces a new service, the fees for such service will be posted on the ConsultantVue website and effective at the launch of such service.

Currently Consulant Vue does not charge fees to Consultants or Companies but this may change in the future as stated above.

Consultant current does not server as a tranfer agent or provide a payment mechanism for the exchange of funds between Clients or Consultants. Or payment arrangements and transfer of funds are currently to be handled directly between the Company and Consultant, but this may also change in the future.

Offers of work, issued through the ConsultantVue Platform, that include a description of the services needed, a broad time when the services can be performed, a location where the services is to be rendered, in exchange for specified payment are hereinafter referred to as “Projects”. Clients shall communicate Projects in clear, simple language and with sufficient specificity to enable Consultants to make informed decisions about whether or not to accept the Project. Clients shall provide a description, instructions and attach documents where necessary, as well as scheduling location and pricing information. A Client may create a test, survey, group, Project or other content for Consultants and in which event the Client shall be responsible for ensuring that such content is lawful both in terms of substance and as administered.

All parties to this Agreement are independent contractors and not joint venturers, franchisors or franchisees, partners, employees, agents or brokers of ConsultantVue or any Clients for which they perform Projects or for any recipient of the services on a Project (the “End Customer”). Each User hereby acknowledges and agrees that the ConsultantVue Platform is intended for use solely by Users who can appropriately enter into independent contractor relationships with one another for Projects in accordance with applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each User acknowledges and agrees that ConsultantVue does not guarantee that a Consultant is an independent contractor of Client, that Client is solely responsible for determining whether, in any particular case, a Consultant can lawfully be engaged by Client as an independent contractor, and that ConsultantVue is not responsible for and shall not be liable to any other party for such determination. A Client or Consultant unsure of whether an independent contractor relationship is appropriate in a given circumstance should consult with legal counsel of their choosing. By entering into this Agreement, each User represents that the User has determined that an independent contractor relationship will exist between such User and all other Users. Each Client furthermore represents that each Consultant who performs a Project will be doing so as an independent contractor.

Consultants represent and acknowledge that they are not employees of ConsultantVue, any Client they perform Projects for or the End Customer. Consultants are and shall identify themselves as independent contractors to any third party. As an independent contractor, the Consultant shall not be treated as an employee, partner, agent or joint venturer for federal, state, municipal, provincial, territorial and local tax purposes or any other purpose. As independent contractors, Consultants are solely responsible for any and all federal, state, municipal, provincial, territorial and local income tax and social security and unemployment taxes, pension plan contributions, health insurance contributions, any VAT tax, sales tax, use tax social services tax or other payroll taxes and any Consultants’ compensation contributions for itself and any of its employees. Consultants will be responsible for maintaining all records and remitting any taxes and submitting any required documentation, returns or filings to the appropriate taxing authorities. ConsultantVue disclaims any responsibility for the foregoing, and Consultant and Client each agree to indemnify and hold ConsultantVue harmless against any such taxes and contributions. ALL SERVICES PERFORMED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT ARE AS AN INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR AND THIS IS AN ESSENTIAL TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT. As independent contractors, Consultants bear all of the costs and risks of operating their own business, including risks of loss. Consultants agree to report the income received pursuant to this Agreement consistent with the reporting requirements of an independent contractor. As independent contractors, Consultants retain the right to provide services to other Clients of their choosing as well as entities not on the ConsultantVue Platform.

As an independent contractor, the Consultant has the right to:

• • determine the manner in which the work stipulated in a Project will be performed, subject to Client specifications for the end product and standards;
  • determine when the work will be performed;
  • determine what tools or equipment to use;
  • reject any Project;
  • determine where to purchase supplies and services;
  • determine what work must be performed by a specified individual consistent with the Project;
  • be free from control and direction in how they perform the work in a Project;
  • perform work for any Client on the ConsultantVue Platform as well as perform work for any other person or entity whether on the ConsultantVue Platform or not; and
  • determine what order or sequence to follow in performing the work.

The Consultant agrees that as an independent contractor, the Consultant is solely responsible for the materials, supplies, equipment and all other costs incurred in the performance of providing the service and that there shall be no reimbursement for any materials, supplies, equipment or operating costs by ConsultantVue or the Client, except for those enumerated in the Project and agreed to by the applicable Client. The Consultant agrees that in performing any services secured through the ConsultantVue Platform, the Consultant will be acting in the ordinary course of the Consultant’s own business. The Consultant agrees that it will not in any way identify its place of business or establishment as a place of business or establishment of ConsultantVue or the Client. In the event that a dispute arises as to the status of Consultant as an independent contractor, or as to any rights or benefits from Client to which Consultant may claim to be entitled, Client and Consultant, and not ConsultantVue, are responsible for resolving such disputes.

You shall not use or disclose any proprietary or confidential information with which you obtain or otherwise gain access to as a result of your access to or usage of the ConsultantVue Platform. All information regarding a Project between the Consultant and a Client who sent such Project, whether or not in writing, of a private, secret or confidential nature concerning the Client’s business or financial affairs (collectively, “Proprietary Information”) is and shall be the exclusive property of such Client. By way of illustration, but not limitation, Proprietary Information may include the contents of a Project, products, product improvements, product enhancements, processes, methods, techniques, negotiation strategies and positions, projects, developments, plans (including business and marketing plans), research data, financial data (including sales costs, profits, pricing methods), personnel data, computer programs (including software used pursuant to a license agreement), customer, prospect and supplier lists, and contacts at or knowledge of customers or prospective customers of the Client. You will not disclose any Proprietary Information to any person or entity other than the applicable Client or use the same for any purposes (other than in the performance of your duties as stipulated in the Project) without written approval by an officer of such Client, unless and until such Proprietary Information has become public knowledge without your fault. While fulfilling the obligations of a Project for the Client, a Consultant will use his/her best efforts to prevent unauthorized publication or disclosure of any of the Client’s Proprietary Information. The Consultant agrees that all files, documents, letters, memoranda, reports, records, data, sketches, drawings, models, program listings, computer equipment or devices, computer programs or other written, photographic, or other tangible or intangible material containing Proprietary Information, whether created by such Consultant or others, which shall come into his/her custody or possession, shall be and are the exclusive property of the Client to be used by the Consultant only in the performance of his/her duties for the Client and shall not be copied or removed from the Client’s premises except in the pursuit of the business of the Client as stipulated in a Project.

Consultants understand and agree that the Project generated by a Client is between the Consultant performing the service and the Client procuring that service. Unless the End Customer is also the User procuring the service, the Consultant agrees that the only communication with the End Customer is to schedule and confirm appointments (if requested in the Project) and to deliver the service. Consultants are prohibited from directly or indirectly contacting End Customers after the completion of the service and shall not circumvent the Client or ConsultantVue in any way. For example, Consultants may not leave business cards, flyers, website addresses or other contact information with any End Customer.

You agree and consent to receive electronically all communications, agreements, documents, notices and disclosures (collectively, “Communications”) that ConsultantVue provides in connection with your Account and your use of the ConsultantVue Platform. Communications include: agreements and policies you agreed to (e.g., this Agreement; updates to ConsultantVue agreements or policies; transaction receipts or confirmations; Account statements and history; federal and state tax statements ConsultantVue is required to make available to you; and any other information related to any other Account or your transactions on the ConsultantVue Platform.) ConsultantVue will provide these Communications to you by posting them on the ConsultantVue website or emailing them to you via the email information provided in your Account. In order to access and retain electronic Communications, you will need a current web browser (ConsultantVue supports the latest versions of all commonly used web browsers) with cookies enabled; a recent version of Adobe Acrobat Reader to open documents in .pdf format; a valid email address (your primary email address on file with ConsultantVue); and sufficient storage space to save past Communications or an installed printer to print them. ConsultantVue will notify you if there are any material changes to the hardware or software needed to receive electronic Communications from ConsultantVue by updating this Agreement. By giving your consent above, you are confirming that you have access to the necessary equipment and are able to receive, open, and print or download a copy of any Communications for your records. You may print or save a copy of these Communications for your records as they may not be accessible online at a later date. You may withdraw your consent to receive Communications electronically by writing to us by email at info@ConsultantVue.co. If you fail to provide or if you withdraw your consent to receive Communications electronically, ConsultantVue reserves the right to either deny your application for an Account, restrict or deactivate your Account, or charge you additional fees for paper copies. After you consent to receive Communications electronically, you may withdraw your consent to receive IRS Form 1099-MISC electronically by contacting us as described above. You will continue to receive all your other Communications electronically, but ConsultantVue will send your Form 1099-MISCs to you by U.S. mail. If, after you consent to receive Communications electronically, you would like a paper copy of a Communication ConsultantVue previously sent you, you may request a copy within 180 Days after the date ConsultantVue provided the Communication to you by contacting us as described above. ConsultantVue will send your paper copy to you by U.S. mail. In order for us to send you paper copies, you must have a current street address on file as your “Home” address in your ConsultantVue Account Profile. If you request paper copies, you understand and agree that ConsultantVue may charge you a records request fee for each Communication. The records request fee will not be charged if you request a Form 1099-MISC in paper form; for all other Communications, the records request fee is $100. It is your responsibility to keep your primary email address up to date so that ConsultantVue can communicate with you electronically. You understand and agree that if ConsultantVue sends you an electronic Communication but you do not receive it because your primary email address on file is incorrect, out of date, blocked by your service provider, or you are otherwise unable to receive electronic Communications, ConsultantVue will be deemed to have provided the Communication to you. Please note that if you use a spam filter that blocks or re-routes emails from senders not listed in your email address book, you must add ConsultantVue to your email address book so that you will be able to receive the Communications ConsultantVue sends to you. You can update your primary email address or street address at any time by logging into the ConsultantVue website. If your email address becomes invalid such that electronic Communications sent to you by ConsultantVue are returned, ConsultantVue may deem your Account to be inactive, and you will not be able to transact any activity using your ConsultantVue Account until ConsultantVue receives a valid, working primary email address from you.

You agree that ConsultantVue shall not be responsible for, and you shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless ConsultantVue, its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and corporate affiliates from, any claims, actions, demands, damages, liabilities, and costs (including attorney’s fees) in any way arising out of or in connection with your or another User’s

1. Content,
2. access or use of the ConsultantVue Platform,
3. violation of any term of this Agreement, or
4. breach or violation of a right of any third party or of any law, statute, ordinance or regulation.

ConsultantVue has the right to transfer or assign this Agreement and the rights hereunder to any other person or entity without your consent. You do not have the right to directly or indirectly assign or transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, this Agreement or any rights thereunder to any other person or entity without ConsultantVue’s prior written consent.
