Identity Verification

Taskenator’s goal is to ensure that the platform is a safe and fair marketplace for everyone to use. To help us put this goal in place, we request all Users to complete our ID Verification process.

Users verifying that they are who they are helps prevent fraud and strengthens Taskenators integrity. The ID verification also protects users by preventing someone else from running an account under your name and that no one except you is able to use your information.

It is important that users verify their identity. Taskenator wants to establish the genuine identity of the users by matching and verifying Government issued IDs with the user's identity from registration.  Verified users are more likely to get awarded with tasks than those who are not verified.

There are two parts to the verification process; First is that Users must submit a scanned copy or high-quality digital photograph of their ID and second is that Taskenator team will review the information to verify the user's identity. The ID verification process may take a few days and Taskenator will flag users as verified once the document is deemed as matching with the user account. Taskenator will reach out to users if we need more information and clarification from you once the review process takes place.

To successfully verify your identity, the information provided during the account registration must match the name, address, and photo on the ID. All ID documentation must be in English such as Passports for easier verification. Taskenator will notify you, once your account is verified.

Taskenator’s Privacy Policy explains how we deal and safeguard the information we collect from users. The privacy policy also explains the purposes we use, retain, and disclose personal information that Users provide to us.

 If you have any questions, you need clarifications or you need help with the verification process please contact us at https://www.taskenator.com/contactus

3 Day Cancellation

When connecting with users on Taskenator, it is important to keep a harmonious relationship with your Client or Tasker, who are working closely with you on the project. Task cancellation should be the last resort after trying to communicate with the Tasker or Client. But if a user suddenly becomes unresponsive while the task is in progress and no response is received for 3 days or more, a user (Tasker or Client) may opt to request for a task cancellation.

Any user may request for a task cancellation even when in the process of working on the project. Either party should respond by accepting or declining the task cancellation based on the reason behind the cancellation request. If the other party agrees, then the Client (and only the Client) is eligible to cancel the task. Also, if the other party does not respond within 3 days of the requested cancellation, then the task will automatically be cancelled in the system.

BASIC DISCLOSURE CERTIFICATE VERIFICATION

We aim to build a community that is based on trust and transparency. Therefore, we have created the Basic Disclosure Certificate Verification for our Users.

Who Is a Verified User?

A verified User is one who has a clean police history.

Our verification provider will check that you do not have a Disclosable Court Outcome, meaning that you have a clean police record, and if the personal details that you have submitted to Taskenator match the DBS report that our verification provider submits to us, then your Background/DBS check will be flagged as verified on the User’s profile.

The Company is providing the service of verifying Users to build trust and harmony. It is also your responsibility to work with such User that you deem fit for your purposes. The Company shall, in no way, be responsible for any fraudulent activities of other Users.

What Does It Mean to Have A Disclosable Court Outcome?

• Court convictions such as penalties and sentences.

• Guilty verdict but was not convicted.

• You appeared in court.

• Court dismissal for good behaviour and any other court matters.

Note that the results of the Basic Disclosure Check show the status of your police record for the period it was issued. For example, if your police record is for six months, that is the length of time for your verification.

Important Notice:

• The accuracy and quality of the Basic Disclosure Check depend on the accuracy of the identification and information, such as aliases, that you submitted on the application form.

• Taskenator Ltd is not responsible for the accuracy of these reports.

At our discretion, we may place a limit on some or all the funds in your Account if:

• We believe that you, your Account or any transactions or part of any transaction associated with your Account is of high risk or if we believe that your transaction may be reversed or a chargeback.

• We believe that you are not the recipient of the payment.

• We believe that the payment is directed to a country where we do not offer our Services.

• We are required to do so by law or applicable law enforcement agencies.

We may temporarily hold the funds in your Account’s wallet to cover any liability associated with any dispute that you are part of. If you win the dispute the limit will be lifted and your funds will be released. But if you do not win the dispute, we may remove the funds from your Account’s wallet. A limit may also be placed on your Account if you are suspected of fraudulent or unacceptable behaviour, while we conduct an investigation.

Request for Refunds

The funds in your Account’s wallet will be refunded to you whenever you ask for it except for fees or charges payable to us.

If your refund amount relates to our fees and charges, the process set out in the Clause "Disputes with Us" must be followed.

Upon agreement to a refund, the funds will be sent to the User via the original payment method.

Users may receive a refund without making a request if:

• It’s a requirement of the law or if we consider it to be a requirement.

• We believe the funds will prevent a dispute or an increase in our cost.

• It’s in accordance to our refund policy that is specified at the time of the occurrence, through our Site.

• It has come to our attention that your payment was fraudulent.

• The payment was duplicated in error.

• We believe that the refund is needed to prevent credit card chargeback.

To request a refund, please contact us by email at support@taskenator.com or you can use our customer support website.

By initiating a chargeback or any other request for information, you have expressly agreed that we can share your information according to this Agreement to counteract the chargeback request.

Requests for us to refund your funds that you have already requested as a chargeback from your credit card issuer will be denied.

We may suspend, limit, or deactivate your Account if we have reasons to believe that you have too many requests for refunds or chargebacks.

Withdrawals

Your maximum monthly withdrawal limit is $10,000 unless you hold an alternative supporting agreement.

Before you can withdraw funds from your Account’s Wallet, we may ask that you verify your Taskenator User Account. The Know your Customer and Identity Verification Policy will provide you with information on becoming Taskenator verified.

You agree and acknowledge that we and/or our payment partners will verify your identity and that additional information may be requested from you as part of our anti-fraud and Know Your Customer policy, as outlined in the "Identity/Know Your Customer" sections of this Agreement.

Chargebacks

A chargeback is a dispute about a payment and a request for reversal of payment.

A chargeback is made by your credit card issuer and not by us. We are not responsible for chargebacks. It is the responsibility of your credit card issuer to make payments for a chargeback request.

You expressly consent and agree for us to recover all chargebacks and reversals that your payment product issuer or third party have imposed on us for funds that Customers paid to you through the Site. You also agree for us to recover any processing fees or any other fees we incur because of your chargebacks and reversals.

You agree and consent that payments that were made to you and are subject to chargeback or reversal through your product issuer or third party can be reversed by us.

By initiating a chargeback or any other request for information, you expressly agree that we can share your information according to this Agreement to counteract the chargeback request.

Currencies

The currencies supported by Taskenator are US dollars. Tasks will be posted in US dollars. Taskenator will not perform any currency conversions. On completion of tasks, Taskers are paid in US dollars. Any currency conversion is completed by the receiving bank.

PAYMENTS PROTECTION POLICY

Taskenator uses escrow to enable Customers get the result they wanted, while also providing Taskers with assurance that they are paid for the work they complete. Customers pay for milestones, or the entire project where there is no milestone specified, during the awarding of the Task process.

Customers are protected via two specific methods. The payment to the Tasker does not begin until the Customer has approved the completion of the Task/milestone. There is then a 14 day period prior to the funds being moved into the Tasker’s wallet where the Tasker can initiate a withdrawal.

DISPUTES

Disputes with Users

You expressly agree that if a dispute arises between you and another User concerning a project or the quality of service, you will first try to resolve the issue before contacting us. But, if the issue persists, we encourage you to contact us using the dispute form.

You also agree that any dispute arising between you and another User will be handled in accordance with this clause:

Taskenator has the right and power to decide on all disputes. Taskenator has the right to request documentation from both parties (Tasker and Customer) to support their dispute claim or position. You agree that Taskenator can accept or reject any documentation upon discretion. You also acknowledge that Taskenator’s decision is made as an ‘ordinary person’, because we are not a judicial or alternative dispute resolution institution. Taskenator does not guarantee that the documents received from both parties are true, complete or correct and you agree to protect and (to the maximum extent permitted by law) hold Taskenator and any of our affiliates harmless against any damages or liability you may suffer because of any documentation or material that are misleading.

In case of disputes with other Users, you agree to protect Taskenator from all claims, demands, and damages, actual and consequential, of every kind and nature, known and unknown, that is related to such a dispute, our determinations and/or for Other Disputes.

The Taskenator Code of Conduct applies to all the Services offered by Taskenator. You agree that you will try to be fair and post reasonable and fair demands or offers on your dispute. Taskenator will not tolerate any conduct of threats, blackmail, intimidation or inducement of Users to leave positive feedback. Neither do we condone any refusal to provide either deliverables or payment in relation to the provision of feedback.

If a User is in breach of the conduct during a dispute resolution process, that User will automatically lose the case and Taskenator will rule in favour of the other party. Further disciplinary action may be taken against the User who breached the code of ethics. Please refer to the Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct for more information.

Taskenator will notify you in writing of the improperly filed claim and if you fail to withdraw the claim promptly, Taskenator may recover its legal fees and costs.

You agree that you will not pursue any claims arising under this Agreement on a class or other representative basis and will not seek to coordinate or consolidate any settlement or action hereunder with any other proceeding.

If proceedings against you are held under the grounds of bankruptcy or insolvency law, Taskenator will be entitled to recover all reasonable costs or expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement.

Payment Protection Policy

There is a 14 day period prior to transferring of Customer Funds into the Tasker’s wallet. This ensures Customers get the results they want, while providing Taskers with an assurance that they are paid for completed tasks.

Customers will be paying for milestones, or the entire project when there is no milestone specified during the awarding of the Task. The Tasker can see that the customer is willing and able to pay as promised, while Customers don’t approve payment to the Tasker until they are satisfied with the completed work. Payments to the Tasker will not commence until the Customer has approved the completion of the Task/milestone.

   • Milestone Review

• Milestones highlight the task to be completed by a tasker and is payable by the Customer. Once the tasker submits work, the customer will validate and decide whether to accept the output or request changes.

• The customer is given 14 days from the time of submission to validate, refuse and ask for revisions for the submitted output.

• Milestone Approval

• Payments will be approved and released to the tasker once a Milestone is fulfilled and satisfaction with the output is met.

• Once the customer doesn’t respond and raise concerns to any milestone submitted within 14 days prior to submission, it will be considered as a satisfactory output and funds are automatically released to the Tasker.

• Milestone Refusal / Revision

•  If outputs submitted are unacceptable to the Milestone requirement (incorrect/insufficient), Customers may ask the Tasker to update and revise the output and resubmit.

•  It is important to coordinate changes if you would like to have the submitted output be edited.

•  The process will reset once the output is resubmitted. The customer will then review and approve the output in another 14 days from the time of resubmission.

• Communication

• If a tasker is contacted by the customer and doesn’t respond within 3 days, the customer can then raise a dispute to have their money refunded.
