Nothing in this Agreement is intended or should be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or employer-employee relationship between Veryable and You or between any third party for which You provide services through the Veryable platform and You. You will take no position with respect to or on any tax return or application for benefits, or in any proceeding directly or indirectly involving Veryable or any third party for which You provide services through the Veryable platform that is inconsistent with Your being an independent contractor (and not an employee) of Veryable or any third party for which You provide services through the Veryable platform. You are not the agent of Veryable or any third party for which you provide services through the Veryable platform and You are not authorized, and must not represent to any third party that You are authorized, to make any commitment or otherwise act on behalf of Veryable or any third party for which You provide services through the Veryable platform.
As an independent contractor, You are solely responsible for determining which Ops You will choose to bid on and accept. You are solely responsible for determining how, when and where You will provide the requested services. All or substantially all of the payment paid to You shall be based on the performance of services or other output. You are allowed to work any hours or schedules that You choose. If You elect to work specified hours or schedules, a contract may require You to perform work during the selected hours or schedules. Veryable does not restrict Your ability to perform services for other parties. You will bear all or substantially all of the expenses that are incurred by You in performing the services. You are responsible for the taxes on Your own income. The contract and the association created by the contract may be terminated without cause by either party to the contract at any time on reasonable notice given to the other party.
As an independent contractor, You are not entitled to or eligible for any benefits that Veryable, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates or other related entities may make available to its employees, such as group insurance, profit-sharing or retirement benefits. By bidding and accepting an Op, You agree to the Independent Contractor Agreement.
Because you are an independent contractor, Veryable will not withhold or make payments for social security or make unemployment insurance or disability insurance contributions on Your behalf. You are solely responsible for filing all tax returns and submitting all payments as required by any federal, state, local, or foreign tax authority arising from the payment of payments to you under this Agreement, and you agree to do so in a timely manner. You will comply with all applicable federal, state, local, and foreign laws governing self-employed individuals, including laws requiring the payment of taxes, such as income and employment taxes, and social security, disability and other contributions. To the extent required by the IRS, Veryable will report the payments paid to you for services rendered as part of Veryable engagements by filing Form 1099-MISC with IRS. You consent to electronic delivery of Form 1099-MISC, if such form is required or filed. You agree to indemnify Veryable for the cost of any tax liabilities incurred by Veryable as a result of your failure to pay all applicable taxes in a timely manner.
Insurance. You acknowledge that You are an independent contractor, not an employee of Veryable. As such, You acknowledge and understand that You are not covered by any insurance that may be provided by Veryable to its employees, including, without limitation, health insurance, workers compensation insurance, and automobile liability insurance. Veryable requires that, as an independent contractor, You maintain workers’ compensation or occupational accident insurance and commercial general liability insurance for which You are solely and exclusively responsible for. Specifically, in the event that You are injured while performing services to third parties through the Veryable Platform, You acknowledge and understand that You will not be covered by any workers compensation insurance coverage that Veryable may provide to its employees. If You do not provide proof of workers’ compensation insurance, occupational accident insurance, and/or general liability insurance, You consent to automatic enrollment in Veryable’s occupational accident insurance program, commercial general liability insurance program, and any other applicable insurance programs.
The Parties agree that it may be impossible to measure in money the damage that would be suffered if the parties fail to comply with any of the obligations herein imposed on them and that in the event of any such failure, an aggrieved party will be irreparably damaged and will not have an adequate remedy at law. The Parties agree and acknowledge that any aggrieved party shall, therefore, be entitled (in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled in law or in equity) to injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations, and if any action should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the parties hereto shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.
Payment services for Operator and/or Company on the Veryable platform are provided by Veryable through Unit Finance Inc. (“Unit”). You authorize Veryable to share your identity and account data with Unit for the purposes of opening and supporting your Veryable Vault account, and you are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of that data. Veryable will provide customer support for your Vault account activity, and can be reached at vault@veryableops.com and/or call or text at (469) 772-6969.
Payment will be initiated daily and be processed into Your Veryable Vault account that is listed in Your profile at that time. Once payment has been initiated, it is final and Veryable will not be able to stop the payment, divert the payment to another account or issue a refund for that payment. For additional information regarding Your Veryable Vault account, please refer to the Cardholder Agreement and/or Deposit Account Agreement.
Once Your bid has been accepted, it is Your responsibility to attend the Op. If a need for You to cancel Your bid arises, it is recommended that the cancellation is initiated at least one day prior to the scheduled Op. No shows and poor attendance will reflect poorly in Your operator ratings and can reduce Your ability to be accepted for future Ops. Frequent cancellations and no shows may result in the suspension or termination of Your account.
Only bid on Ops for which you have the necessary skills and physical capability of completing. You may be sent home with a poor rating and no pay if you are unqualified for the Op. Bidding on an Op doesn’t mean you have been accepted by the business. You will receive an in-App notification and an email confirming the Op if your bid has been accepted by the business. Never show up for an Op or contact the business directly until your bid has been confirmed. Contacting a business after your Op has expired is strictly forbidden. Veryable reserves the right to discontinue any aspect of the Service, Suspend Your Veryable Account or Terminate Your Veryable Account at any time, without notice, for any reason, including violating these Restrictions and/or these Terms.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPHS CAREFULLY BECAUSE THEY REQUIRE YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH VERYABLE, AND LIMIT THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.
Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. All claims and disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the use of the Services that cannot be resolved in small claims court will be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, except that You and Veryable are not required to arbitrate any dispute in which either party seeks equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets, or patents.
Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this dispute-resolution provision. Arbitration will be initiated through the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). If the AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. The rules of the arbitral forum will govern all aspects of this arbitration, except to the extent those rules conflict with these Terms. The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules governing the arbitration are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration will be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator. Any claims or disputes where the total amount sought is less than $10,000 USD may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief. For claims or disputes where the total amount sought is $10,000 USD or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the arbitral forum’s rules. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Additional Rules for Non-appearance Arbitration. If non-appearance arbitration is elected, the arbitration will be conducted by telephone, online, written submissions, or any combination of the three; the specific manner will be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration. The arbitration will not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless the parties mutually agree otherwise.
Authority of the Arbitrator. The arbitrator will decide the jurisdiction of the arbitrator and the rights and liabilities, if any, of You and Veryable. The dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim or dispute. The arbitrator will have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator will issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and Veryable.
Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND VERYABLE WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and Veryable are instead electing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In any litigation between You and Veryable over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU AND VERYABLE WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, and elect instead to have the dispute be resolved by a judge.
Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If, however, this waiver of class or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither You nor Veryable are entitled to arbitration; instead all claims and disputes will be resolved in a court as set forth in below.
Confidentiality. No part of the procedures will be open to the public or the media. All evidence discovered or submitted at the hearing is confidential and may not be disclosed, except by written agreement of the parties, pursuant to court order, or unless required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party will be prevented from submitting to a court of law any information needed to enforce this arbitration agreement, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.
Right to Waive. Any rights and limitations set forth in this arbitration agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted. Such waiver will not waive or affect any other portion of this arbitration agreement.
Opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement. If You do so, neither You nor Veryable can force the other to arbitrate. To opt out, You must notify Veryable in writing no later than 30 days after first becoming subject to this arbitration agreement. Your notice must include Your name and address, Your Veryable username and the email address You used to set up Your Veryable account (if You have one), and an unequivocal statement that You want to opt-out of this arbitration agreement. You must send Your opt-out notice to this address: Veryable, ATTN: Arbitration Opt-out, 2019 N. Lamar St., Suite 250, Dallas, Texas 75202.
Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either You or Veryable may bring an individual action in small claims court.
Arbitration Agreement Survival. This arbitration agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Veryable.
To the extent the parties are permitted under these Terms to initiate litigation in a court, both you and Veryable agree that all claims and disputes arising out of or relating to the Terms or the use of the Services will be litigated exclusively in the United States District Court of Delaware.
Except to the extent they are preempted by U.S. federal law, the laws of Delaware govern these Terms and any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or their subject matter, including tort claims.
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Independent Contractor Agreement, Release, and Waiver of Liability and any other legal notices published by Veryable on the Service, shall constitute the entire agreement between You and Veryable concerning the Service. If any provision of these Terms is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms, which shall remain in full force and effect. No waiver of any term of this these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and Veryable’s failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Veryable reserve all rights not expressly granted to You. You may not transfer any of your rights or obligations under these Terms without Veryable’s consent. Veryable reserves the right to amend these Terms at any time and without notice, and it is Your responsibility to review these Terms for any changes. Your use of the Service following any amendment of these Terms will signify Your assent to and acceptance of its revised terms. You and Veryable agree that any cause of action arising out of or related to the services must commence within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues. otherwise, such cause of action is forever barred.
BY ACCEPTING THIS AGREEMENT VIA THE VERYABLE WEBSITE OR VERYABLE APP, YOU HAVE AGREED TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS SET FORTH ABOVE AND AGREE THAT THE TERMS CONSTITUTE AN AGREEMENT THAT IS ENFORCEABLE AGAINST YOU. YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT THE RECORD OF USER’S ACCEPTANCE WILL BE TREATED, FOR PURPOSES OF VALIDITY, ENFORCEABILITY AS WELL AS ADMISSIBILITY, THE SAME AS WRITTEN SIGNATURES.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE TERMS. YOU FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO OBTAIN INDEPENDENT LEGAL ADVICE WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT BEFORE ACCEPTING IT.
