INTERPRETER TERMS OF AGREEMENT

Interpreters are defined as any individual registering on InterpreterNet as an entity (business or individual) that purports to supply interpreting services.

Interpreters agree and understand that InterpreterNet does not pay interpreters. Interpreters understand and agree InterpreterNet simply refers consumers needing interpreting services to interpreters who may be available via e-mail updates. InterpreterNet will try its best to deliver interpreter requests promptly to registered interpreters and their e-mails, but does not guarantee delivery of every request for an interpreter as technical difficulties may arise.

Interpreters will often be given information about a consumer and their contact information. Interpreters may NOT solicit these consumers for work as an individual contractor or as a business. Interpreters acknowledge that InterpreterNet's list of customers, consumers, procedures for doing business, financial affairs, etc. are valuable and unique assets of this business. An interpreter agrees that he/she will not, either during or after termination of service with InterpreterNet, disclose any such information, or other confidential information, gained by virtue of association with InterpreterNet, to any person, firm, or other entity, for any reason whatsoever without the permission of InterpreterNet. We hereby reserve the right to terminate the membership of any interpreter that violates these terms of agreement.

Interpreters are responsible to provide for their own liability, disability, and health insurance coverage. All applicable federal and state taxes are the sole responsibility of the interpreter. Because InterpreterNet does not pay interpreters, InterpreterNet will not deduct any taxes from contractor checks, and corporations will not be sent IRS 1099 forms at the end of a calendar year. Interpreters may not apply for workers compensation insurance or unemployment benefits on behalf of InterpreterNet.

CONSUMER TERMS OF AGREEMENT

Interpreters are defined as any individual registering on InterpreterNet as an entity (business or individual) that purports to supply interpreting services. However, InterpreterNet does not guarantee the services of any of these individuals or businesses. We encourage all requestors of interpreting services to hire nationally certified interpreters (as explained in "The Interpreting Profession" portion of InterpreterNet) so as to minimize mistakes and errors on the part of the interpreter. However, regardless of certification, InterpreterNet makes no claim to guarantee the quality of service rendered by any of our registered interpreters.

Consumers understand that by requesting an interpreter via InterpreterNet's "Interpreter Request" form does not guarantee an interpreter will contact them or that an interpreter will be found to complete the requested service. However, Consumers agree that regardless of whether an interpreter is found or not to perform the requested service, they will still be billed the current Interpreter Request rate, which InterpreterNet reserves the right to change at any time. Consumers also understand that they will be responsible for negotiating a pay rate with the interpreter, and paying the interpreter, provided one contacts them, in addition to the Interpreter Request fee charged by InterpreterNet. InterpreterNet only bills Consumers for their requests for an interpreter submitted online and/or their monthly package plan which they have selected and agreed to pay in the "Billing Information" page.

Interpreters agree and understand that InterpreterNet does not pay interpreters. Consumers understand and agree InterpreterNet simply refers those needing interpreting services to interpreters who may be available via e-mail updates. InterpreterNet will try its best to deliver interpreter requests promptly to registered interpreters and their e-mails, but does not guarantee delivery of every request for an interpreter as technical difficulties may arise.

Consumers hereby grant consent that all registered interpreters on InterpreterNet may view the information filled out in the "Interpreter Request" form submitted online.

Consumers understand and agree that Interpreters may NOT solicit work as an individual contractor or as a business from them. A Consumer agrees that he/she will not, either during or after termination of service with InterpreterNet, attempt to solicit work from an Interpreter which was first referred to the Consumer via InterpreterNet. Requests for interpreting services from an interpreter referred to a Consumer via InterpreterNet must be directed to InterpreterNet and channeled through our normal interpreter-request procedure.

Interpreters and Consumers acknowledge that InterpreterNet's list of customers, consumers, interpreters, procedures for doing business, financial affairs, etc. are valuable and unique assets of this business. A Consumer agrees that he/she will not, either during or after termination of service with InterpreterNet, disclose any such information, or other confidential information, gained by virtue of association with InterpreterNet, to any person, firm, or other entity, for any reason whatsoever without the permission of InterpreterNet. We hereby reserve the right to terminate the membership of any Consumer or Interpreter that violates these terms of agreement.
