These Terms are between you and H Influencer Collective Inc., with its place of business at 655 Montgomery St., San Francisco, CA, 94111 United States (“Company”, “we” or “us”) concerning your use (including any access to) of The Hub website located at https://thehhub.com and/or our mobile software application (together with any content, functionality, and services available therein, and successor site(s) or applications thereto, the “Platform”).

BY USING THE PLATFORM, INCLUDING BY OPENING AN ACCOUNT, OR BY OFFERING OR ACCEPTING A JOB (AS DEFINED BELOW) THROUGH THE PLATFORM, YOU AFFIRM THAT YOU ARE OF LEGAL AGE TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS. THESE TERMS ALSO GOVERN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU (AS A CLIENT) AND CREATOR IN CONNECTION WITH JOBS THAT YOU OFFER AND YOU (AS A CREATOR) AND CLIENTS IN CONNECTION WITH JOBS THAT YOU ACCEPT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, DO NOT USE OUR PLATFORM.

IF YOU ARE AN INDIVIDUAL ACCESSING OR USING THE PLATFORM ON BEHALF OF, OR FOR THE BENEFIT OF, ANY CORPORATION, PARTNERSHIP OR OTHER ENTITY WITH WHICH YOU ARE ASSOCIATED (AN “ORGANIZATION”), THEN YOU ARE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS ON BEHALF OF YOURSELF AND SUCH ORGANIZATION, AND YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE LEGAL AUTHORITY TO BIND SUCH ORGANIZATION TO THESE TERMS. References to “you” and “your” in these Terms will refer to both the individual using the Platform and to any such Organization.

THESE TERMS CONTAIN A MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION THAT, AS FURTHER SET FORTH IN SECTION 19 BELOW, REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES BETWEEN US AND YOU, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR ANY OTHER COURT PROCEEDINGS.

Changes

We may change these Terms from time to time by notifying you of such changes by any reasonable means, including by posting revised Terms through the Platform.

Your use of the Platform following any changes to these Terms will constitute your acceptance of such changes. The “Last Updated” legend above indicates when these Terms were last changed. We may, at any time and without liability, modify or discontinue all or part of the Platform (including access to the Platform via any third-party links); charge, modify or waive any fees required to use the Platform; or offer opportunities to some or all Platform Users. We may supply different or additional terms in relation to some of our services, and those different or additional terms become part of your agreement with us if you use those services through the Platform.

Account Registration

To use the Platform as a Client or a Creator, you must create, respectively, a Client account or a Creator account, and provide accurate and complete information in connection with creating such account. This may include providing us with your legal or business name, address, billing information, contact information, professional and educational qualifications (if applicable), and any other information that we request from you in connection with your creation of an account or other use of the Platform. Any Our Privacy Policy, located at https://thehhub.com/privacy-policy/, sets out our collection, use and disclosure practices in connection with information that you provide to us in connection with your use of the Platform. YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO USE ANY PAYMENT INFORMATION, SUCH AS BANK ACCOUNTS OR CREDIT CARD NUMBERS, THAT YOU PROVIDE TO US. By submitting such information, you grant to us the right to provide such information to third parties, such as the Payment Services Provider, for purposes of operating the Platform and facilitating Jobs. It is your responsibility to keep your account information updated at all times. You must maintain the security of your account and promptly notify us if you discover or suspect that someone has accessed your account without your permission. If you permit others to use your account credentials, you are responsible for the activities of such Users that occur in connection with your account. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to refuse, suspend, or revoke your account upon discovery that any account information provided is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, or such information or other conduct otherwise violates these Terms, or for any other reason or no reason in our sole discretion.

Our Role

You expressly acknowledge and agree that (a) the Platform is merely a neutral forum where Creators and Clients can meet; (b) we are a third-party beneficiary, but not a party, to any Job agreements between Creators and Clients; (c) you are not our employee or an employee of the Clients for whom you perform Jobs, and we and Clients do not, in any way, supervise, direct, or control you or your performance of Jobs; (d) we are not responsible, and will not have any liability or obligations, for any acts or omissions by you or any other Users related to the Jobs; (e) your use of the Platform is subject to your acceptance of these Terms; and (f) we make no representations as to the reliability, capability, or qualifications of any Creators or the quality, security, or legality of any Job, and we disclaim any and all liability relating thereto.

We are in no way responsible for the accuracy, currency or completeness, of the information provided by Client or Creator in connection with the Platform. You acknowledge that the information Creators provide to Clients will be used by Clients to evaluate the Creators’ abilities to complete Jobs and the information Clients provide through the Job Notice will be used by Creators to evaluate their desire to complete a Job, and you agree not to present false, misleading or inaccurate information or other information that violates these Terms to other Users. We reserve the right to update, change or remove information from accounts on the Platform or to terminate our relationship with you should any information provided be found to be false, misleading or inaccurate.

By accepting a Job as a Creator, you understand and agree that your relationship to the applicable Client is that of an independent contractor and that no employer/employee relationship is formed. You have no authority and will not present yourself as having any such authority to speak or act on behalf of another User. As an independent contractor, you understand and agree that you waive the withholding of all workers’ compensation, statutory disability and other employee fringe benefits, including pension and health benefits, since, as an independent contractor, other Users will not provide you with any benefits whatsoever.

If you are a Client, in using the Platform you will take steps to ensure, and hereby represent and warrant that, no employment relationship is created between you and a Creator in connection with such Creator’s performance of Services for you.

Job Notices

The following terms and conditions apply to all Users, who are either Creators or Clients:

Clients may create and post Job Notices, and Creators may apply for and accept Jobs through such Job Notices. Job Notices, Job Pages and/or Users may be removed by us from the Platform for violations, or suspected violations, of these Terms, including: (i) posting illegal, illicit or fraudulent Job Notices or Services; (ii) infringing, misappropriating or violating any third party’s rights (including any intellectual property rights); (iii) posting spam, violent or deceptive Job Notices or Services; (iv) using third-party materials in connection with any Job; (v) posting Job Notices misleading to Creators or others; (vi) posting statements on the Client Page, Job Page or Creator Page that undermine, circumvent or violate these Terms; (vii) creating Creator Pages misleading to Clients or others; and (viii) promoting the Platform, Services and/or Job Notices through activities that are prohibited by any laws, regulations, and/or guidelines, as well as through any marketing activity that negatively affects our relationships with our Users or partners. If we remove a Job Notice for violating these Terms, we may also suspend, deactivate or terminate your account. Job Notices that are removed for violations are not eligible to be restored or edited.

Clients and Creators may communicate about a Job Notice via the Message Center. You are, and we are not, responsible for all communications that occur between you and other Users in the Message Center. In the event that, through the course of such communications a change to the Payment amount is agreed upon by both the Client and Creator, the Client must notify us by e-mail at contact@thehhub.com. Following receipt of such e-mail notification we may, but are not obligated to, update the Payment amount for the relevant Job as described in the e-mail notification. Upon any Payment update, the Client will be debited or credited with the difference in Payment, and if you are a Client, you authorize us and our Payment Service Providers to make such debits or credits.

Upon completion of the Services, the Creator must upload the Work Product to the Job Notice. The Client may preview such Work Product on the Job Page prior to downloading the Work Product itself. A Job is marked as complete after the Work Product submitted by the Creator is downloaded by the Client on the Job Page. Upon completion of a Job by a Creator (as described herein), eighty-two percent (82%) of the Payment for such Job will be accredited to the Creator by the Payment Services Provider and the remaining eighteen percent (18%) will be accredited to us. No Payment is remitted to a Creator until such Job completion. You agree to pay all charges incurred by you or on your behalf through the Platform, at the prices in effect when such charges are incurred.

CLIENTS MAY NOT OFFER TO CREATORS, AND CREATORS MAY NOT REQUEST FROM CLIENTS, ANY PAYMENT USING ANY METHOD OR MEANS OTHER THAN THROUGH THE PAYMENT SERVICES PROVIDER AND AS DESCRIBED IN THESE TERMS. IN CASE YOU HAVE BEEN ASKED TO USE AN ALTERNATIVE PAYMENT METHOD, PLEASE REPORT IT TO US IMMEDIATELY BY E-MAILING US AT CONTACT@THEHHUB.COM. IF YOU ENGAGE OR ARE SUSPECTED OF ENGAGING IN ANY ACTUAL OR ATTEMPTED CIRCUMVENTION OF THE PAYMENT SERVICES PROVIDER AND/OR THE PAYMENT METHOD OR MEANS DESCRIBED HEREIN, WE MAY TERMINATE OR SUSPEND YOUR ACCOUNT, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION AND WITHOUT ANY NOTICE OR LIABILITY TO YOU.

You are solely responsible for paying any and all direct or indirect taxes that apply to you, including any GST, VAT or otherwise, which may apply to you depending on residency or location. You represent and warrant that you comply, and will comply at all times, with your obligations under income tax provisions in your jurisdiction.

All disputes regarding Payments will be handled directly among Clients, Creators and the Payment Services Provider according to the Payment Services Provider’s governing terms and conditions, which are available here: https://stripe.com/legal. You agree that we shall not be a party to, and that you will not seek to make us a party to, any such disputes.

All disputes regarding Job Notices, Jobs, Services, Work Product and/or any other disputes between Clients, Creators and/or third parties, will be handled directly between the Creator, the Client and the third party. You agree that all such disputes shall be addressed without our involvement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may, but are not obligated to, implement dispute resolution guidelines, which, if implemented, will be made available on the Platform or otherwise provided to Creators and Clients; If we choose to implement such guidelines, Creators and Clients agree to resolve any disputes in accordance with such dispute resolution guidelines. You agree and acknowledge that we are not a party to disputes between Clients, Creators and/or third parties, nor shall you seek to make us a party to any such dispute (except as provided below), and we shall have no liability or obligation to either you or the Creator for any Job subject to a dispute.

Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent that we, in our sole discretion, seek to assist in the resolution of a dispute, then Client and Creator agree, we shall have no liability or obligation to any User in connection with such involvement, and may cease such assistance at any time in our sole discretion.

We have no control over, are not responsible for, and do not guarantee (i) the existence, quality, safety, suitability, or legality of any Job Notices or Services, (ii) the truth or accuracy of any Job Notice, or other User Content (as defined below), or (iii) the performance or conduct, or acts or omissions, of any User or third party. We do not endorse any User, Job Notice or Service. The existence of a User account only indicates that the User has completed a relevant verification or identification process and nothing else. The existence of a User account is not an endorsement, certification or guarantee by us about any User, including of the User's identity or background or whether the User is trustworthy, safe or suitable. You should always exercise due diligence and care when deciding whether to apply for a Job Notice, hire a Creator, perform or use Services, or communicate and interact with other Users, whether online or in person.

Clients

If you are a Client, the following additional terms and conditions apply to you:

You must register for a Client account to access the Platform in order to post Jobs.

You may offer Job Notices to Creators; provided that the Job Notice does not violate these Terms or applicable laws, regulations or guidelines. In order to offer a Job Notice, you must provide accurate Job-related information, including a description of such Job, the Services to be performed, additional parties or materials required to complete the Job (i.e. models, props, etc.) experience required to perform such Job (if applicable), any relevant timelines and/or locations, and the Payment amount to be paid to the hired Creator upon completion of the Job.

You may review Creator applications on the Job Page and, at your own discretion, hire a Creator to perform the Services in connection with a Job Notice. You may only hire one Creator per Job Notice, unless the Job description on the Job Notice states the need for more than one Creator.

Upon creation of a Job Notice, you authorize the Payment Services Provider to (i) debit your account for the Payment, which will be paid to the hired Creator upon completion of the Job, and (ii) to debit or credit your account, as applicable, to address any changes in the Payment terms agreed upon between the Creator and Client. In the event a Job is not completed the Payment will be returned back to you by the Payment Services Provider.

Your Payment obligation to the Creator performing Services for a Job will be satisfied upon the Creator’s receipt of Payment by the Payment Services Provider. You are solely responsible for paying to Creators the full amount of any Payments owed.

In the event you decide not to download a Work Product submitted by a Creator because you believe that the Job has not been completed in accordance with the Job Notice and other requirements mutually agreed between you and the Creator, you must provide the relevant Creator a written explanation of the reasoning behind your decision not to accept the created Work Product, and provide the hired Creator an opportunity to address any concerns or objections with the provided Work Product.

Creators

If you are a Creator, the following additional terms and conditions apply to you:

You must register for a Creator account to list and market your skills, services and experience on a Creator Page and to offer and provide Services to Clients. All User Content posted to your Creator Page must be accurate. You agree that your account is not transferable and that in the event of your death, incapacity or unavailability, we may terminate any rights to your account or User Content.

You may apply for Jobs through a Job Notice. You will be notified in the event Client hires you to perform a Job by email or through the Message Center. In the event you are hired by a Client, in connection with a specific Job Notice, you agree to perform the Services in accordance with such Job Notice, provided that you may refuse to perform any Services that are illegal, illicit, dangerous or fraudulent. The Work Product must be your original work and, except as expressly agreed between you and a Client, may not contain any third party information, products, services or other materials, and will not require rights or license from a third party.

To the extent you and a Client agree to use third party information, products, services or other materials in connection with any Job, you are solely responsible to acquire all necessary permits, licenses, releases and other rights to use any models, locations, props, and other materials to perform the Services in connection with such Job.

Failure to complete a Job (for any reason) in accordance with the Job Notice, including requirements on timing, may result in cancellation of the Job. In the event of a Job cancellation, no Payment amount will be accredited to you.

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, as amended by these Terms. The Commercial Arbitration Rules are available online at https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/CommercialRules_Web_FINAL_1.pdf. The arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or by us that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination should be made by the AAA or by the arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision will follow the terms of these Terms and will be final and binding. The arbitrator will have authority to award temporary, interim or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of these Terms, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim before the arbitrator. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in these Terms will preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state or local agencies and, if the law allows, they can seek relief against us for you.

Governing Law; Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, U.S.A., without regard to its principles of conflicts of law, and regardless of your location. You agree to exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in New York County, New York, U.S.A., and waive any jurisdictional, venue or inconvenient forum objections to such courts.

Assignment

You may not assign, transfer or sublicense any or all of your rights or obligations under these Terms without our express prior written consent. We may assign, transfer or sublicense any or all of our rights or obligations under these Terms without restriction.

Severability

If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Terms and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

Repeat Infringer Policy; Copyright Complaints

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials available on the Platform infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send to us a written notice by mail or e-mail, requesting that we remove such material or block access to it. If you believe in good faith that someone has wrongly filed a notice of copyright infringement against you, the DMCA permits you to send to us a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA. See http://www.copyright.gov/ for details. Notices and counter-notices must be sent in writing to our DMCA Compliance Department as follows: by mail to H Influencer Collective, attn: DMCA Compliance Department, 190 North 10th Street, Brooklyn NY, 11211; or by e-mail to DMCA@theHhub.com. The DMCA Compliance Department’s phone number is 315-491-7441. We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a DMCA notice or counter-notice.

Miscellaneous

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. These Terms reflect the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, representations, statements and understandings of the parties. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Use of the word “including” will be interpreted to mean “including without limitation.” Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third-party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity. You agree that communications and transactions between us may be conducted electronically.

Export Controls. You are responsible for complying with United States export controls and for any violation of such controls, including any United States embargoes or other federal rules and regulations restricting exports. You represent, warrant and covenant that you are not (a) located in, or a resident or a national of, any country subject to a U.S. government embargo or other restriction, or that has been designated by the U.S. government as a “terrorist supporting” country; or (b) on any of the U.S. government lists of restricted end users.

Apple-Specific Terms. In addition to your agreement with the foregoing terms and conditions, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the following provisions apply with respect to your use of any version of the Platform compatible with the iOS operating system of Apple Inc. (“Apple”). Apple is not a party to this Agreement and does not own and is not responsible for the Platform. Apple is not providing any warranty for the Platform except, if applicable, to refund the purchase price for it. Apple is not responsible for maintenance or other support services for the Platform and shall not be responsible for any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses with respect to the Platform, including any third-party product liability claims, claims that the Platform fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement, claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation, and claims with respect to intellectual property infringement. Any inquiries or complaints relating to the use of the Platform, including those pertaining to intellectual property rights, must be directed to us in accordance with the preamble section above. The license you have been granted herein is limited to a non-transferable license to use the Platform on an Apple-branded product that runs Apple’s iOS operating system and is owned or controlled by you, or as otherwise permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in Apple’s App Store Terms of Service. In addition, you must comply with the terms of any third-party agreement applicable to you when using the Platform, such as your wireless data service agreement. Apple and Apple’s subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance of the terms and conditions of these Terms, will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof; notwithstanding the foregoing, our right to enter into, rescind or terminate any variation, waiver or settlement under these Terms is not subject to the consent of any third party.
