What is Kasamba?

Kasamba, Inc. and Kasamba, Ltd. (“Kasamba” or the “Site Provider”) provide an advisor platform that allows an Advisor to present his or her expertise and sell advice or services to interested Members. Kasmaba, via the advisor platform, enables Members to communicate directly with Advisors and enables Advisors to receive payment for their services.

Disclaimer – For Entertainment Purposes Only

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE SITE IS BEING PROVIDED FOR USE AS-IS AND IS FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY. THE USE OF THE SITE IS ACCORDINGLY BEING MADE AT YOUR SOLE AND ENTIRE RISK, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, COMPATIBILITY, SECURITY OR ACCURACY. THE SITE PROVIDER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES FOR INFORMATION POSTED OR TRANSMITTED BY ITS MEMBERS.

If you decide to provide your services through the use of the Site, you must exercise a reasonable standard of care, at least the same as a professional advisor would in a similar transaction not conducted through the internet, or the standard of care mandated by your profession, whichever is higher. You shall not have any plea, claim or demand against the Site Provider, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees, sub-contractors and agents in respect of any services you provide in connection with the use of the Site. The Site Provider will not be deemed the provider or recipient of any services acquired through the Site. The sale or purchase of services is accordingly at your sole and entire risk.

Under no circumstances will the Site Provider, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees, sub-contractors and agents be liable to any Advisor for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive or exemplary damages (including but not limited to loss of business, revenue, profits, use, data or other economic advantage), however it arises, whether in action of contract, negligence or other tortious action, or arising from the services or any provision of this agreement. The Site Provider, its affiliates, their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees, sub-contractors and agents’ aggregate liability for any damages arising with respect to this agreement will not exceed the lesser of total amount of money paid by the Site Provider to you through the Site in the six month period prior to the date the claim arose or $100. You acknowledge and agree that the Site Provider disclaims any liability with respect to any claim, suit or action brought by a member in connection with provision of any services by you (including, without limitation, representations by you as to your qualifications and advice) through the Site.

Kasamba does not control the accuracy of any postings on or transmissions through the Advisor Platform by Members. Kasamba also takes no responsibility for verifying the identity of any of its Members. Therefore, you are encouraged to independently verify the details and creditworthiness of Members to whom you provide or contemplate providing advice.

Relationship of the Parties

Advisors are independent contractors of Kasamba, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create any association, partnership, joint venture, employee, or agency relationship between an advisor and Kasamba for any purpose. Neither party shall have or hold itself out to any third party as having any authority to make any statements, representations, or commitments of any kind or to take any action that shall be binding on the other, except as provided for in this Agreement or authorized in writing by the party to be bound.

As independent contractors, Advisors shall not be eligible to participate in any vacation, group medical or life insurance, disability, profit sharing or retirement benefits, or any other fringe benefits or benefit plans offered by Kasamba to its employees. Kasamba shall not be responsible for withholding or paying any income, payroll, Social Security, or other taxes of any applicable jurisdiction, making any insurance contributions, including for unemployment or disability, or obtaining worker's compensation insurance on advisors’ behalf. As an independent contractor, each Advisor shall be independently and solely responsible for any income, sales and use, or other tax which Advisor may be or become obligated to pay by virtue of Advisor’s receipt of any fees or other remuneration. Advisors shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify Kasamba against all such taxes or contributions including penalties and interest.

Permitted Disclosures.  Kasamba may disclose Advisor information, including, but not limited to, personal information, transcripts, surveys, and recordings, if Kasamba reasonably believes that disclosure (i) is necessary to comply with a legal process (such as a court order, subpoena, search warrant, etc.) or other legal requirement of any governmental authority; (ii) would potentially mitigate Kasamba’s liability in an actual or potential lawsuit; (iii) is necessary or appropriate to protect Kasamba’s rights or property, or the rights or property of any person or entity; (iv) is necessary or appropriate to enforce this Agreement; or (v) is necessary to deter illegal behavior (including, but not limited to, fraud).

Your Information.  Kasamba may review any Advisor’s profile and amend any apparent typographical or spelling errors. Kasamba takes no responsibility for evaluating or verifying the truthfulness or accuracy of the information contained in an Advisor’s profile; an Advisor’s credentials or qualifications; or an Advisor’s postings or transmissions - all of which Advisor represents to be truthful and accurate. Kasamba may, in its sole discretion, remove or refuse to post or transmit any content uploaded by an Advisor for any reason or for no reason. Each Advisor is responsible for all risks associated with uploading and transmitting material through the Advisor Platform, including its accuracy, reliability, and legality. You hereby grant Kasamba an unlimited, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, edit, copy, transmit, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, create derivative works based on, on a worldwide basis, any information or content that you post, transmit, deliver, or receive via the Advisor Platform.

Modifications to and Termination of Advisor Platform Service

Kasamba may modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, all or any part of the Advisor Platform, with or without advance notice to Advisor without liability to Advisor or any third party. Kasamba, in its sole discretion and for any reason, may terminate Advisor’s participation in the Advisor Platform and refuse any and all current or future use by Advisor of the Advisor Platform for any reason or for no reason. Kasamba will make reasonable efforts to invalidate your username and password within 30 days of receiving a written request from you to do so.

You may terminate this Agreement at any time by sending a signed notice to [email protected]. You may deactivate your own username and password for any desired period of time by logging in and deactivating your account.

Fees

Charges for all interactions between Advisors and Members will be billed through the Advisor Platform, regardless of whether the interaction is online or offline. Kasamba will use reasonable efforts to process each Member’s chosen payment method for the amount agreed upon between Member and Advisor (subject to Kasamba’s fee structure below) within 7 business days of each transaction. Kasamba assesses a commission fee and a connection fee for each session in accordance with the Schedule of Fees and Payments available at this link: https://www.kasamba.com/lp/advisor_terms_and_conditions_bonus_program, which is incorporated herein by this reference. Rates and structures for fees and payments are subject to change at any time, with or without advance notice to Advisors, and all Advisors are encouraged to check the Schedule of Fees and Payments regularly for changes. Commission and connection fees are assessed at the time payment is received from the Member for the final session fee at the rates applicable at that time, and all fees are subject to the Expert Referral System defined below.

The commission fee is deducted from the total charge paid by the Member first, and then the connection fee is deducted from the remaining amount of the Member charge. Kasamba may modify the fees at any time without prior notice but will use reasonable efforts to provide advance notice. Administrative fees may apply for additional administrative function such as canceling checks or initiating wire transfers. Advisors are paid the net amount of the charge paid by the Member after deduction of all fees (including any applicable payment processing or other administrative fees disclosed in advance and assessed by Kasamba or any applicable payment processing service or provider).

Within 30 days following the end of each calendar month, Kasamba will deliver payment of the advisor payment as calculated above via Payoneer, PayPal, bank check or other payment method separately agreed upon by the Parties. You are solely responsible for reporting and paying any applicable tax or tariffs in connection with payments receivable or received from Kasamba.

Notwithstanding the above, Kasamba may delay or withhold, in its discretion, advisor payments for amounts paid by Members by credit card until adequate time has passed to ensure that the payment will not be disputed or charged back or, if Kasamba reasonably believes that fraud may have occurred in connection with payment. If a Member has not paid or has later charged back payment, no advisor payment will be made to you for that session. In case of a later charge-back for a session for which payment previously was made to you, any such payment must be repaid to Kasamba, and Kasamba may deduct any such amounts from your account or from future payments. If you simultaneously participate as a Member, Kasamba may transfer or set off payments from your pending earnings as an Advisor to your outstanding balance as a Member.

Commission fees may be reduced for certain sessions and individuals you refer to the site pursuant to the “Expert Referral System”. Click here to learn more about Kasamba’s Expert Referral System and corresponding commission fee adjustments. The Expert Referral System does not apply to the mobile version of the Advisor Platform. Commission fees will not apply to any advice or information an Advisor may give for free in accordance with this Agreement. Kasamba also reserves the right to offer and pay Advisors discretionary bonuses or other amounts at any time and upon any such terms as it deems appropriate or desirable.

Kasamba’s billing system is not error-free, and Kasamba shall not be liable for any miscalculations or malfunctions in processing payments. If you think a mistake has occurred, you must submit a complaint to Kasamba’s service department here within 90 days of any such payment. You hereby agree that any issues or disputes not raised within 90 days after a payment are waived and will not be considered by Kasamba.
