An affiliate encompasses entities or individuals that are directly or indirectly affiliated with us through management, ownership, or shared control.

A deep fake denotes manipulated videos or images intended to deceptively substitute one individual's likeness with another's without consent. A freworkandhirer refers to an individual or agency offering their services on our platform. Freworkandhirer services encompass the tasks performed by freworkandhirers on WorkandHire. Means of direct contact pertain to information enabling direct communication outside our platform, such as phone numbers, email and physical addresses, social media accounts, and personal websites with contact details. Site services encompass all services, applications, and products—excluding freworkandhirer services—accessible through WorkandHire.

This encompasses content originated by you, even if components were initially generated by generative AI or other tools, or in response to queries posed by WorkandHire or other users. When you buy a Voice Over Gig, the Seller provides you with a non-commercial perpetual, exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide license to utilize the purchased Voice Over. However, this does not cover any commercial applications, such as radio, television, and internet commercial spots. Opting for Commercial Rights (Buy-Out) with your order extends your rights. Alongside the basic rights, the Seller grants you a license to employ the Voice Over for commercial, promotional, and non-broadcast purposes for the agreed period (unless otherwise specified - perpetuity). Commercial, promotional, and non-broadcast purposes entail any business-related use for profit-generating products or services (excluding paid marketing channels). Examples include explainer videos on company websites, social networks, or email campaigns, audiobooks, and podcast intros. This excludes any illegal, immoral, or defamatory purposes. Further, with Full Broadcast Rights (Buy-Out), you receive additional benefits. In addition to Commercial Rights, the Seller provides you a license for full broadcasting for the agreed period (unless otherwise specified - perpetuity). Full Broadcasting encompasses internet, radio, and TV "paid channels," such as television commercials, radio commercials, internet radio, and music/video streaming platforms. Again, any illegal, immoral, or defamatory purposes are strictly prohibited. These Buy-Out provisions are subject to workandhire's Terms of Service. There is no warranty, express or implied, accompanying the purchase of this delivery, including with respect to fitness for a specific purpose. Neither the Seller nor workandhire will be liable for any claims or incidental, consequential, or other damages arising from this license, the delivery, or your use of the delivery. By obtaining a "Commercial Use License" alongside your Gig Order, you receive an enduring, exclusive, non-transferable, global authorization from the Seller to utilize the acquired delivery for Permitted Commercial Purposes. It's important to note that the Seller retains complete ownership rights. "Permitted Commercial Purposes" encompass any business-related activities, such as advertising, promotion, website creation, integration into products, software, or other business tools, while expressly excluding any illegal, immoral, or defamatory uses. This license is governed by workandhire's Terms of Service. No warranties, whether express or implied, are provided with the purchase of this delivery, including regarding fitness for specific purposes. Neither the Seller nor workandhire will be held accountable for any claims or incidental, consequential, or other damages arising from this license, the delivery, or its use. workandhire is committed to fostering economic opportunities for individuals, aiming to enhance their quality of life.

Shipping Physical ItemsShipping Physical Items Certain services offered on workandhire involve the delivery of physical goods (such as arts and crafts, collectible items, etc.). In such cases, Sellers may choose to specify a shipping fee. For Gigs that include a shipping fee, Sellers are required to send physical items to Buyers. The shipping fee applied to a Gig covers the cost incurred by Sellers to ship physical items to Buyers. It's important to note that Buyers purchasing Gigs requiring physical delivery will need to provide a shipping address. Once the Buyer provides the shipping address, Sellers are responsible for all shipping arrangements. workandhire does not oversee or guarantee shipping, tracking, quality, or the condition of items, nor their delivery, and therefore will not be held accountable for any issues or damages arising from shipping. To mitigate disputes related to shipping, providing a tracking number is highly recommended. If available, Sellers are required to enter the tracking number on the Order Page when delivering their work.

Rights to Provide Feedback By offering workandhire any remarks, recommendations, or feedback concerning the workandhire platform, website, as well as other workandhire offerings (collectively referred to as "Feedback"), you acknowledge granting workandhire exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide ownership rights to the Feedback. workandhire holds no obligation to incorporate any Feedback provided by users.

ConfidentialitySellers must acknowledge the potential necessity for Buyers to share confidential information for the completion of ordered work. Sellers are obligated to safeguard such confidential information against unauthorized use and disclosure. Consequently, Sellers commit to treating any information provided by Buyers with utmost confidentiality, considering it highly sensitive, top-secret, and classified material. This commitment includes: i) Maintaining strict confidentiality of all received information. ii) Refraining from disclosing the information to any third parties. iii) Utilizing the information solely for the purpose of fulfilling the ordered work. iv) Obtaining the Buyer's permission before copying or reproducing any of the information.

Content Generated By Users User Generated Content (UGC) denotes content contributed by users rather than content produced by the Site itself. All content uploaded to workandhire by our users (Buyers and Sellers) falls under User Generated Content. workandhire does not conduct checks on user-uploaded or created content for appropriateness, copyright violations, trademarks, or other rights infringements. The responsibility for such content lies solely with the user who uploads or creates it, including any consequences arising from its use, disclosure, storage, or transmission. By uploading or creating content on the workandhire platform, you affirm that you own or have obtained all necessary rights, licenses, consents, permissions, power, and/or authority to use and/or upload such content. Additionally, you assert that such content, or its use on the Site, does not and will not: (a) infringe or violate any intellectual property, proprietary, privacy, data protection, or publicity rights of any third party; (b) contravene any applicable local, state, federal, and international laws, regulations, and conventions; and/or (c) breach any of your or third party's policies and/or terms of service. We encourage everyone to report violations, accompanied by proof of ownership where appropriate. Reported violating content may be removed or disabled. Moreover, workandhire disclaims responsibility for the content, quality, or level of service provided by Sellers (even if they are Pro Freelancers, Top Rated Sellers, offer Promoted Gigs, or otherwise). We offer no warranty regarding the Gigs, their delivery, any communications between Buyers and Sellers, and the Logo Designs created through the Logo Maker. Users are encouraged to utilize our rating system, community, and common sense when selecting services. By offering a service, Sellers affirm that they possess sufficient permissions, rights, and/or licenses to provide, sell, or resell the service offered on workandhire. Sellers promoting their Gig or Logo Design created through the Logo Maker online must adhere to the laws and terms of service of the advertising platform or relevant website used for advertising. Failure to comply may result in the removal of the Gig or Logo Design from the Logo Maker, as applicable, and may lead to the suspension of the Seller's account. For specific terms related to Intellectual Property rights and for reporting claims of copyright infringement (DMCA notices) or trademark infringement, please refer to our Intellectual Property Claims Policy, which is an integral part of these Terms of Service. Please note that it is our policy, in appropriate circumstances, to disable and/or terminate the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.

Possession Ownership and Terms: Upon purchasing a Gig on workandhire, unless otherwise specified on the Seller's Gig page/description, the Buyer, upon delivery and payment, acquires all intellectual property rights, including copyright, for the delivered work from the Seller. The Seller renounces any moral rights associated with the work. Thus, the Seller explicitly transfers the copyright to the Buyer. However, such transfer is contingent upon full payment for the Gig, and if payment is canceled for any reason, the delivered work may not be used. In the case of custom-created work (e.g., artwork, design, report generation), the Buyer exclusively owns the delivered work and its copyright upon delivery, as agreed under the Terms of Service. Some Gigs, especially those involving custom-created work, may require additional payments (via Gig Extras) for a Commercial Use License. If the Gig is purchased for personal use, the Buyer owns all necessary rights and doesn't require a Commercial Use License. However, if the work will be used for any business-related purpose, a Commercial Use License must be obtained via a Gig Extra to ensure broader rights for business use. For Voice Over Gigs, upon delivery and payment, the Buyer obtains basic rights, permitting perpetual use of the work for non-commercial purposes with a one-time fee payment. However, if the Voice Over will be used to promote a product and/or service (excluding paid marketing channels), the Commercial Rights (Buy-Out) must be purchased via Gig Extra. Additionally, for usage in radio, television, and internet commercials, the Full Broadcast Rights (Buy-Out) are required via Gig Extra. Further details on the types of buy-outs are provided below. Moreover, users (Buyers and Sellers) acknowledge that unless explicitly stated otherwise, any content voluntarily created/uploaded to workandhire, including Gig texts, photos, videos, usernames, user photos, user videos, and any other information, may be utilized by workandhire for marketing or other purposes without compensation.
