interest to freelancers and small enterprises.
All of the information that BidNoutsource provides should not be considered professional,
medical, legal, technical, or any other discipline-specific advice.
This information is provided solely for general purposes.
As such, the information on BidNoutsource will be changed frequently. It
is possible that some
information could be considered offensive, harmful, or inaccurate.If desired, Users
should use their own efforts to confirm such information with a
professional(s) in the pertinent field(s).
BidNoutsource also provides access to third-party content. BidNoutsource is only
acting as a portal, and does not monitor this content. BidNoutsource has no
liability based on, or related to, the third-party content on this Site, arising
under any legal laws.
BidNoutsource may contain links to third-party web sites. BidNoutsource does not
control the web sites to which we link from BidNoutsource. We, therefore, do
not endorse the content, products, services, practices, policies, or performance
of the web sites we link to from BidNoutsource.
We expect that the User will undertake necessary activities and practices and will
use their own intelligence when using BidNoutsource for User's account.
REFERRAL COMMISSIONS
The referral commission paid out will be the one listed on the Referrals page. You
may not refer yourself, nor sign up for multiple accounts to collect
referral fees. You may also not partner with any other BidNoutsource user to share/transfer
the commission made from your own account, or else both parties
will be kicked from the service without payment. BidNoutsource reserves the right
to delay or cancel sending affiliate earnings if we believe the referred
user will not pay the fees they were charged, since affiliate commissions are based
on those fees.
PAYMENTS
BidNoutsource will typically print and mail cheques if the member requests it AND
their account balance is equal to or greater than $30. This also applies to
payments made through the PayPal service. All amounts are stated in and all payments
will be made in US funds. BidNoutsource reserves the right to freeze a
withdrawal if the source of the funds is suspected to be fraudulent. Any funds received
from an account having made a fraudulent deposit (e.g. stolen
creditcard) will be reversed immediately. If in a fraudulent payment situation a
withdrawal has already been done, you will be expected to return the funds
to your BidNoutsource account or face account termination.
E-MAIL ADDRESSES
Members agree not to post their email address on the site, except when signing up
through our signup form, or when explicitly asked by BidNoutsource at any
other time. Your email address is automatically provided if you choose a Service
Provider (or you are the Service Provider chosen for) for a project. This
not only applies to e-mail addresses, but to all forms of you contact information
like phone no., ICQ, AIM, MSN Messenger, etc.
PROVIDING CONTACT INFORMATION
You are prohibited from making direct contact with another member, unless you have
been selected for a project or you have have selected a service provider
for your project. This includes giving out your email address, ICQ number, phone
number, or any other method of contact outside of this site. The message
boards rpovided by BidNoutsource should be used for any pre-project talks. The only
exception to this is on "Featured" projects. If a project has the
"Featured" logo on it, that means the Buyer has already paid a flat fee in advance,
and thereby you are allowed to provide contact information in the message
board.
AVOIDING COMMISSIONS
You are strictly prohibited from attempting to negotiate the fee for a project with
another member directly (outside of BidNoutsource) after that project has
been created/opened and before that project has been closed. But this also applies
to any project that was closed without a Service Provider being chosen,
and then contacting them about the project anyway. Both parties are responsible
for notifying BidNoutsource if the payment amount increases after the project
is closed. If at the time of a withdrawal request the Service Provider has failed
to notify BidNoutsource staff of a payment received above the amount of his
bid (a total payment above US$100), BidNoutsource reserves the right to deduct double
the fee for the amount that should have been reported. We believe our
commissions are very nominal and justified for the service we provide, therefore
we will absolutely not tolerate any of this activity on BidNoutsource.
