Relationship of HowToRobot and Suppliers

Appointment as Agent

HowToRobot provides technology and services to enable clients seeking to purchase any kind of service or products related to automation and robots ("Clients") to connect with suppliers providing such service or products ("Suppliers").

The Supplier hereby appoints HowToRobot as an independent sales and marketing representative of the Supplier for Supplier's services and products ("Supplier Offerings") worldwide. The Supplier represents and warrants that such appointment does not violate any obligations or contracts of the Supplier. HowToRobot hereby accepts such appointment as set forth in these Terms.

HowToRobot agrees that during the term of these Terms:

1. HowToRobot shall use its reasonable efforts to actively generate leads and solicit orders for the Supplier Offerings.
2. HowToRobot shall to a reasonable extent provide the Supplier with feedback from potential customers.
3. c. Except as provided in these Terms, HowToRobot will be responsible for its own expenses incurred in generating leads and showcasing the Supplier Offerings to potential customers.

The Supplier agrees that during the term of these Terms:

1. The Supplier will provide to HowToRobot, at no charge, marketing support for the Supplier Offerings in the form of customized replies to customer requests as well as promotional materials, such as pamphlets, brochures, catalogs, reference cases, handbooks and specification sheets as deemed reasonably necessary by HowToRobot.
2. The Supplier shall be responsible for obtaining any governmental approvals as may be necessary to distribute and sell the Supplier Offerings.

HowToRobot is an independent contractor and is not an employee of the Supplier. Except for the purpose of generating leads, soliciting orders, and showcasing Supplier Offerings, HowToRobot is not an agent of the Supplier. Neither party shall have the right or authority to make any contract, sale or other agreement in the name of, or for the account of the other party, or to make any representation, or to assume, create or incur any obligation or liability of any kind, express or implied, on behalf of the other party.

The Supplier grants to HowToRobot, its agents, contractors, licensees, marketing partners, and affiliates the right to use, reproduce, display, publicly perform and publish the Supplier's trademarks, service marks, names, or logos, and to modify any description of the Supplier Offering published on the Platform or the Website solely to correct obvious spelling, grammatical or typographical errors, in connection with: the marketing, advertising, or promoting of the Supplier Offerings.

During the term of these Terms, HowToRobot may market and sell other products, processes and services, including any that are competitive with the Supplier Offerings.

Suppliers may use subcontractors to perform Supplier Offerings unless otherwise agreed with their Client.

If a Supplier uses subcontractors, the Supplier further agrees and acknowledges that this Article applies to HowToRobot’s relationship, if any, with the Supplier’s subcontractors as well and the Supplier is solely responsible for the Supplier’s subcontractors.

25.1 Non-Party; Release

If Users decide to enter into a contract related to the Supplier Offerings, the contract is entered into directly between the Users. HowToRobot is not a party to that contract.

In addition to the recognition that HowToRobot is not a party to any contract related to Supplier Offerings between Users, you hereby release HowToRobot and our respective officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures, employees and service providers from claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with any dispute you have with another User, whether it be at law or in equity that exist as of the time you enter into the Terms. This release includes, for example and without limitation, any disputes regarding the performance, functions, and quality of the Supplier Offerings provided to Client by a Supplier and requests for refunds based upon disputes.

You acknowledge, agree, and understand that HowToRobot is not a party to the relationship or any dealings between the Client and the Supplier. Without limitation, Users are solely responsible for: (a) ensuring the accuracy and legality of any comments, remarks, data, feedback, content, text, photographs, images, video, sound, or other content or information that a User posts to any part of the Website or provides to HowToRobot, including such content or information that is posted as a result of questions (“User Content”); (b) determining the suitability of other Users for a contract; (c) agreeing and executing any terms or conditions of contracts; and/or (d) providing Supplier Offerings.

You further acknowledge, agree, and understand that you are solely responsible for assessing whether to enter into a contract with another User and for verifying any information about another User.

You understand and acknowledge that termination of this agreement and your account does not terminate or otherwise impact any contract entered into between Users. You will continue to be obligated to pay any amounts accrued (including HowToRobot fees) but unpaid as of the date of termination or as of the closure of any open contracts, whichever is later, to HowToRobot.

You therefore agree as follows: if HowToRobot decides to temporarily or permanently close your account, HowToRobot has the right, where allowed, but not an obligation, to (A) notify other Users that have entered into contracts with you to inform them of your closed account status, and (B) provide those Users with a summary of the reasons for your account closure. You agree that HowToRobot will have no liability arising from or relating to any notice that it may provide to any User regarding closed accounts status or the reason(s) for the closure.

25.2 Confidential Information

Confidential Information is all information marked “Confidential” and exchanged between the Supplier and the Client.

To the extent a User provides Confidential Information to another User, the recipient will protect the secrecy of the discloser’s Confidential Information with the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information, but in no event with less than due care.

On a User’s written request, the party that received Confidential Information will promptly destroy or return the disclosing party’s Confidential Information and any copies thereof contained in or on its premises, systems, or any other equipment otherwise under its control.

Confidential Information does not include material or information that: (a) is generally known by third parties as a result of no act or omission of Supplier or Client; (b) was lawfully received by User without restriction from a third party having the right to disseminate the information; (c) was already known by User prior to receiving it from the other party and was not received from a third party in breach of that third party’s obligations of confidentiality; or (d) was independently developed by User without use of another person’s Confidential Information.

25.3 Disclaimer

Through interaction with HowToRobot or access to or use of the Website or Platform, Suppliers may be notified of Clients seeking the services they offer, and Clients may be notified of Suppliers that may offer the services they seek; at all times, however, Users are responsible for evaluating and determining the suitability of any Services, Client or Supplier on their own.

HowToRobot does not make any representations about, or guarantee the truth or accuracy of, any information provided by Suppliers or Clients, including User Content; does not verify any feedback or information provided by Users about Suppliers or Clients; and does not perform background checks on or guarantee the work of Suppliers or Clients. You acknowledge, agree, and understand that HowToRobot does not, in any way, supervise, direct, control, or evaluate Suppliers or their work and is not responsible for any Supplier Offering included in a contract or of the delivery of the Supplier Offering.

HowToRobot does not, in any way, supervise, direct, or control any Supplier or Supplier Offerings; does not impose quality standards or a deadline for completion of any Supplier Offerings; and does not dictate the performance, methods or process Supplier uses to perform the Supplier Offerings. HowToRobot does not provide shipping services for any tangible or intangible results or deliverables that Supplier agrees to create for, or actually delivers to, Client or Supplier as a result of performing the Supplier Offerings.

While HowToRobot may provide certain badges on Supplier or Client profiles, such badges are not a guarantee or warranty of quality or ability or willingness of the badged Supplier or Client to complete a contract and are not a guarantee of any kind, including regarding the quality of Supplier Offerings or Clients’ projects.

You also acknowledge, agree, and understand that Suppliers are solely responsible for determining, and have the sole right to determine, which Client projects to accept; the time, place, manner, and means of providing any Supplier Offerings; the type of services they provide; and the price they charge for their services or how that pricing is determined or set. Supplier is in all ways free to determine when and if to perform Supplier Offerings. The Supplier will be paid at such times and amounts as agreed with a Client in a given contract, and HowToRobot does not, in any way, provide or guarantee Supplier a regular salary or any minimum, regular payment.

25.4 Indemnity

Supplier shall indemnify, hold harmless, and upon HowToRobot’s request, defend, HowToRobot and our respective officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures, employees and service providers from claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, including legal fees, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with or related to any dispute you have with another User, whether it be at law or in equity that exist as of the time you enter into the Terms.

It is a condition for the Supplier to subscribe to HowToRobot and to comply with the terms for subscription to be able to access HowToRobot's Website, Platform, and HowToRobot's other services other than the Get Quote Services. The subscription fees are described in Article 3 of the Terms.

Besides an eventual subscription fee, the Supplier shall pay to HowToRobot a commission with respect to each sale of a Supplier Offering which was facilitated in any way and at any time by HowToRobot or the Supplier's or a Client's access to or use of the Website or the Platform, other than via the Get Quote Services. The amount of the commission payable to HowToRobot shall be equal to 5% of the total contract value, excluding taxes, for any such sale, regardless of whether any aspect of the transaction was completed using the Website or the Platform (the “Commission”). The Commissions are paid solely by the Supplier.

Commissions payable to HowToRobot shall be paid upon execution of a contract for the sale of Supplier Offerings between Supplier and Client and are due in full regardless of any subsequent returns, refunds, cancellations, rescissions, or any disputes (including disputed charges) between Supplier and Client. If the contract is for a recurring service, the Commission is payable when the service is redelivered in accordance with the contract.

26.2 Client Fees

Clients pay no fees to HowToRobot for access to any of HowToRobot's Website or Platform, but it is a condition to use the Website or Platform that the Client has subscribed to be a User. The basic subscription is free of charge for Clients.

26.3 Non-Payment

Any action by the Supplier to avoid paying a Commission due to HowToRobot in accordance with this Article, including failing to pay the Commission or incorrectly reporting to HowToRobot a contract's value, is strictly prohibited. In accordance with Article 10, the Supplier shall maintain true, complete, and correct copies of contracts related to any Supplier Offerings and all records related to such contracts. The Supplier shall provide copies of such contracts and records to HowToRobot upon reasonable request.

If the Supplier is found to have violated this Article, HowToRobot may, without notice, temporarily or permanently close the Supplier’s Account and revoke the Supplier’s access to the Website and the Platform, and the Supplier may not receive any future sales leads from HowToRobot. However, the Supplier will remain liable for the full value of any Commissions owed and not paid prior to the revocation of the Supplier's access to the Website and the Platform. Without limiting other available remedies, the Supplier shall pay HowToRobot upon demand any amounts owed, plus interest on the outstanding amount at the lesser of eight percent (8%) per month or the maximum interest allowed by applicable law, plus attorney’s fees and other costs of collection to the extent permitted by applicable law.

At our discretion and to the extent permitted by applicable law, HowToRobot may, without notice, charge all or a portion of any amount that is owed by Supplier to HowToRobot or as Commissions or otherwise with any available payment method on file on the Supplier’s Account; set off amounts due against other amounts received from Supplier or held for Supplier by HowToRobot; make appropriate reports to credit reporting agencies and law enforcement authorities; and cooperate with credit reporting agencies and law enforcement authorities in any investigation.

HowToRobot does not guarantee that the Client is able to pay or will pay the Supplier any amount under a contract and HowToRobot is not liable towards the Supplier for any amount under any contract if the Client fails to pay any amount owed to the Supplier.

29.1 Service Contracts

If a Client and Supplier decide to enter into a Service Contract, the Service Contract is a contractual relationship directly between the Client and the Supplier. The Client and the Supplier have complete discretion both with regard to whether to enter into a Service Contract with each other and with regard to the terms of the Service Contract. You acknowledge, agree, and understand that HowToRobot is not a party to any Service Contract, that the formation of a Service Contract between Clients and Suppliers will not, under any circumstance, create an employment or other service relationship between HowToRobot and any User or a partnership or joint venture between HowToRobot and any User.

The Client and the Supplier have the possibility to agree on and add separate terms for the Service Contract. These separate terms will form part of the Service Contract. In this way, with respect to any Service Contract, Clients and Suppliers may enter into any written agreements that they deem appropriate (e.g., confidentiality agreements, invention assignment agreements, assignment of rights, etc.) provided that any such agreements do not conflict with, narrow, or expand HowToRobot’s rights and obligations under the Terms, including these Get Quotes Terms

It is the responsibility of the Parties to describe their needs and their services in an adequate and sufficient way.

Any Service Contract entered into via the Get Quotes Service can only have a delivery time of 85 days from point of hiring the Supplier for the Project.

The Supplier is in this context obliged to make a complete description of the Service Contract Price, including taxes etc. All prices on the Quotes provided via the Get Quotes Process must be provided in EURO. The Service Contract Price includes the full performance from the Supplier for the Get Quotes request, and no extra prices can be part of the Service Contract entered into as a Quote to the request. If an extension of the co-operation is needed, a new Get Quotes procedure must be made.

Furthermore, the Supplier acknowledges and agrees that Supplier is solely responsible (a) for all tax, customs, VAT etc. liability associated with payments received from Supplier’s Clients and through HowToRobot, and that HowToRobot will not withhold any taxes from payments to Supplier; (b) and for determining whether Supplier is required by applicable law to remit to the appropriate authorities any value added tax or any other taxes or similar charges applicable to the Supplier Fees and remitting any such taxes or charges to the appropriate authorities, as applicable.

In the event of an audit of HowToRobot, Supplier agrees to promptly cooperate with HowToRobot and provide copies of Supplier’s tax returns and other documents as may be reasonably requested for purposes of such audit, including but not limited to records showing Supplier is engaging in an independent business as represented to HowToRobot.

29.2 Disputes among Users

For disputes arising between Clients and Suppliers, you agree to abide by the dispute process that is explained in the Direct Contract Terms that apply to your particular Service Contract. If the dispute process does not resolve your dispute, you may pursue your dispute independently, but you acknowledge and agree that HowToRobot will not and is not obligated to provide any dispute assistance beyond what is provided in the Direct Contract Terms.

29.3 Confidential Information

Confidential Information is all information marked “Confidential” and exchanged between the Supplier and the Client.

To the extent a User provides Confidential Information to another User, the recipient will protect the secrecy of the discloser’s Confidential Information with the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information, but in no event with less than due care.

On a User’s written request, the party that received Confidential Information will promptly destroy or return the disclosing party’s Confidential Information and any copies thereof contained in or on its premises, systems, or any other equipment otherwise under its control.

Confidential Information does not include material or information that: (a) is generally known by third parties as a result of no act or omission of Supplier or Client; (b) was lawfully received by User without restriction from a third party having the right to disseminate the information; (c) was already known by User prior to receiving it from the other party and was not received from a third party in breach of that third party’s obligations of confidentiality; or (d) was independently developed by User without use of another person’s Confidential Information.

30.1 Fees for Suppliers

It is a condition for the Supplier to subscribe to HowToRobot and comply with the terms for subscription to be able to make offers to Clients through Get Quotes. The subscription fees are described in section 3 of the Terms.

Besides the subscription fee, the Suppliers will pay HowToRobot a service fee for the use of Get Quotes corresponding to 5% of the total Service Contract Price (the “Service Fee”). If it is a recurring service, the Service Fee is payable when the service is redelivered in accordance with the Service Contract.

The Service Fee includes using the Get Quotes Services, invoices and a preliminary handling of an eventual dispute (as set out in the Direct Contract Terms) and payment services. The Service Fees (to use the Get Quotes Services) are paid solely by the Supplier. When a Client pays a Supplier for a Project or when funds related to a Project are otherwise released to a Supplier by the Client, the Service Fee to HowToRobot is deducted from the Service Contract price before it is released to the Supplier.

The Supplier hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs HowToRobot to charge the Service Fee and pay HowToRobot on Supplier’s behalf.

30.2 Client Fees

Clients pay no fees to HowToRobot for the Get Quotes services, but it is a condition to use the service that the Client has subscribed to be a User. The basic subscription is free of charge for Clients.

30.3 No fee for introducing or for finding projects

HowToRobot does not introduce Clients to Suppliers and does not help Suppliers secure Projects. HowToRobot merely makes Get Quotes and Get Quotes Services available to enable Suppliers to do so themselves and may from time to time highlight Projects that may be of interest. Therefore, HowToRobot does not charge a fee when a Supplier finds a suitable Client or finds a Project. In addition, HowToRobot does not charge any fee or dues for posting public feedback and composite or compiled feedback, including composite information.

31.1 Payment Services

Through the Platform, Users can get access to payment services to deliver, hold, and/or receive payment for a Project, and to pay fees to HowToRobot. The payments are processed through our Payment Service supplier Stripe, an independent payment transaction provider. The User has accepted the terms and conditions of Stripe (www.stripe.com).

The payment flow consists of the following:

• Client accepts to hire the Supplier for a Project.
• The payment for the full Service Contract Price is reserved on the Client’s credit card via Stripe
• When the Client marks the Project as delivered, the Client authorizes the Service Contract Price amount deducted the HowToRobot Service Fee to be released to the Supplier’s Stripe account.

Payments not released by day 84:

• If the payment has not been released by the Client after 84 days, the Client must evaluate the project status and determine whether payment can be released to the Supplier.
• If the project is not delivered within the 85 days a dispute process must be started immediately.
• If the payment has not been released by the Client after 90 days, and no solution to the dispute has been found, HowToRobot will invoice the Supplier and charge the full HowToRobot Service Fee. HowToRobot will await instructions from the Client whether to release the reserved amount or a part of the amount. If the Client chooses not to release anything for the Supplier, it is the risk and the responsibility of the Client.

31.2 Supplier Stripe Account

The Supplier must create a Stripe account in order to receive the payments for a Service Contract.

31.3 Client Payment on Service Contract

HowToRobot will invoice the Client in accordance with the price agreed upon in the Service Contract and process described above (payment flow).

The Client automatically approves the invoice for the Service Contract Price when the Supplier is hired for the Project.

When Client approves the Service Contract, the Client automatically and irrevocably authorizes and instructs HowToRobot to charge the Client for the full Service Contract Price.

31.4 Non-Payment

The Client is in default if the Client fails to pay the Supplier in accordance with the Service Contract, e.g. if: (a) the Client fails to pay the Supplier contract amounts when due; or (b) the Client initiates a chargeback with a bank or other financial institution resulting in a charge made by HowToRobot for Supplier contract amounts to be reversed to the Client.

If Client is in default, HowToRobot may, without notice, temporarily or permanently close the Client’s Account and revoke the Client’s access to the Website and the Platform, including the Client’s authority to use the Website to process any additional payments, enter into Service Contracts, or obtain any ad-ditional Supplier Services from other Users through the Website. However, the Client will remain liable for any amounts that accrue on any open Projects at the time a restriction is put on the Client’s Account as a result of the default. Without limiting other available remedies, the Client shall pay HowToRobot upon demand any amounts owed, plus interest on the outstanding amount at the lesser of eight percent (8%) per month or the maximum interest allowed by applicable law, plus attorney’s fees and other costs of collection to the extent permitted by applicable law.

At our discretion and to the extent permitted by applicable law, HowToRobot may, without notice, charge all or a portion of any amount that is owed on any Account to HowToRobot or as Service Con-tract Prices or otherwise with any available payment method on file on the Client’s Account; set off amounts due against other amounts received from Client or held by for Client by HowToRobot; make appropriate reports to credit reporting agencies and law enforcement authorities; and cooperate with credit reporting agencies and law enforcement authorities in any investigation.

HowToRobot does not guarantee that the Client is able to pay or will pay the Supplier any amount under a Service Contract and HowToRobot is not liable towards the Supplier for any amount under a Service Contract if the Client is in default.
