Acceptance of User Agreement
This user agreement ("User Agreement" or "Agreement") is a contract between you and Newerawave (308685015 ע.פ) if you are a user of nfreelance.newerawave.com ("Site"). The Site is offered to you conditional on your acceptance of the User Agreement. Please review the terms and conditions set out below before using the Site. Your continued use of the Site after such time will signify your acceptance of this User Agreement.
This User Agreement and all policies and terms incorporated by reference constitute the entire agreement between you and Newerawave as to its subject matter.
If you do not agree to any of these terms and conditions you should immediately cease to use the Site. Please note that we may close, suspend, or limit your access to your NEWFrrelancer account ("Account") or the Services provided by us on the Site ("Services"), and/or limit access to your funds if you carry out activities which are in contravention of this User Agreement and its associated policies incorporated by reference.
Amendment of User Agreement
Newerawave may amend or modify this User Agreement in whole or in part from time to time, without notice (unless such prior notice is required by law), by posting an amended User Agreement on the Site or any linked information. Such updated version of the User Agreement will be effective at the time we post it.
1. ELIGIBILITY
Newerawave offers its Services to its Users. We shall have absolute discretion as to whether or not we accept a particular applicant or site for participation in the service. The Site is available only to individuals or corporate entities that can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, this Site is not available to persons under 18 years of age. If Users do not qualify, they cannot use any of Newerawave's Services including, but not limited to, those that require the User's ability to form legally binding contracts. Each User is responsible for what occurs on their Account and must report any unauthorised use of their Account to us.
2. USERS
The terms "You", "Your", "User", or "Users" refer to anyone accessing our Services or Site for any reason.
Newerawave provides a venue to introduce Users who wish to provide professional services ("Freelancers") and Users who seek such professional services ("Employers")(respectively or jointly as the "Parties" and individually as a "Party"). The Site enables Users to identify each other and work together online to complete, invoice and pay for projects.
3. LEGAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND NEWERAWAVE
3.1 Termination
Newerawave reserves the right to terminate the participation of any User without reason but expressly including any User that Newerawave judges to be in violation of the User Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Newerawave may terminate the participation of a User if we think that they are creating problems, legal liabilities (actual or potential), infringing someone else's intellectual property rights, engaging in fraudulent, immoral or illegal activities, or for other similar reasons.
3.2 Relationship between Users
The parties to a project are the Freelancer, the Employer and Newerawave. Newerawave is a party to a project for purposes limited to (a) the provision of the virtual venue and hosting of the Site(s) to enable selection of Freelancers and projects, (b) supervising payment following satisfactory completion of a project as agreed between the Employer and the Freelancer, and provision of a process for Employers and Freelancers to use when there is a disagreement about satisfactory completion of a project.
Although Newerawave provides a virtual environment for definition of projects and assessment of Freelancer suitability, each Freelancer and each Employer acknowledges and agrees that, despite any recommendation made by Newerawave of any Freelancer in relation to a project, they are responsible to identify and subsequently make their own sole decision and/or determination on the suitability or otherwise (as applicable) of a Freelancer to perform or complete any project or of an Employer to provide funds during and/or on completion of any project and clarification on a project as required during the term of a project. Newerawave has not investigated the suitability of any Freelancer for any project and the Employer acknowledges that it is its sole responsibility to assess the ability of a Freelancer to satisfactorily complete a project.
Depending on their jurisdiction, Freelancers and Employers may have rights under statutory warranties that cannot lawfully be excluded. Nothing in this agreement is intended to override a right that by applicable law may not be excluded. However, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the liability of Newerawave for any services it provides is limited to performing the services again.
Upon the Employer awarding a project to a Freelancer and the Freelancer's acceptance of a project on the Site, the Employer agrees to purchase, and the Freelancer agrees to deliver the Provider Services in accordance with the following agreements: (1) the User Agreement; and (2) the User Services Agreement between the Employer and Freelancer available on the Site, as amended from time to time; (3) any other contractual provisions accepted by both the Freelancer and Employer uploaded to the Site, to the extent not inconsistent with the User Agreement; and (4) the project terms as awarded and accepted on the Site, to the extent not inconsistent with the User Agreement. Newerawave agrees to provide the venue and host the Site, including the hosting of the project.
You agree not to enter into any contractual provisions in conflict with the User Agreement. Any provision of a member contract in conflict with the User Agreement is void.
3.3 User Responsibilities
The responsibilities of the Freelancer and Employer are set out in the Services Agreement between Freelancer and Employer.
When you enter into a transaction, you create a legally binding contract with another User, unless the transaction is prohibited by law or by this User Agreement.
You are responsible for ensuring that you comply with your obligations to other Users. If you do not, you may become liable to that User(s). You must ensure that you are aware of any domestic laws (including common law), international laws, statutes, ordinances and regulations relevant to you as an Employer or Freelancer, or in any other uses you make of the Site.
If another user breaches any obligation to you, you are solely responsible for enforcing any rights that you may have. For the avoidance of doubt, Newerawave has no responsibility for enforcing any User rights.
3.4 No Insurance
Newerawave does not offer any form of insurance or other Employer or Freelancer protection which will assist you, because our Site merely provides the online venue for Users to offer, sell, and buy professional services and we are not otherwise involved in the transactions and interactions between Employers and Freelancers. However, some forms of payment permitted on the Site, such as PayPal or credit card, may offer limited employer or freelancer protection or chargeback services and you should familiarise yourself with these before proceeding with a transaction of any kind through the Site.
Because user identification on the Internet is difficult, we cannot and do not confirm each User's purported identity.
3.5 Independent Contractors
Each User acknowledges and agrees that the relationship between Users is that of independent contractors. Nothing in this User Agreement creates a partnership, joint venture, agency or employment relationship between: (1) Users; or (2) between us and any User.
3.6 Services offered by NEWFreelancer service

6. AVOIDING COMMISSIONS
6.1 Prohibition on negotiation of fee outside of Site
You are strictly prohibited from attempting to negotiate the fee for a project with another user directly (outside of NEWFreelancer service) after that project has been created/opened and before that project has been closed (i.e. during an ongoing project). This also applies to any project that was closed without a Freelancer being chosen, and then contacting them about the project anyway. Both parties are responsible for notifying Newerawave if the payment amount increases (above the bid amount) after the project is closed.
You are strictly prohibited from under-bidding on projects in an attempt to renegotiate the actual price privately, avoiding fees. We aim to provide a fair and open playing field at NEWFreelancer service, and such activities interfere with providing such a marketplace. Newerawave charges project commissions on all funds received by either direct transfer or other payment through the site, regardless of the final bid amount.
We believe our commissions are very fair and justified for the service we provide, therefore we will absolutely not tolerate any fee avoidance or underbidding on the Site.

6.3 Providing contact information
You are prohibited from making direct contact with another User outside of NEWFreelancer service. This includes giving out your e-mail address, Skype ID, ICQ number, phone number, or any other method of contact outside of this site.
