Commencement of Work

We reserve the right to decide when to start the Service, subject to the following conditions.

The setup fee (if any) and first month’s fee will be charged at the time you place your order.

After your initial payment has been made, we will endeavor to commence the Service within 48 hours. Please note that the 48 hours of ‘lead-time’ is usually required to prepare properly for commencing the Service, and is included in the period charged for.

If we are not able to commence the Service within 48 hours of you making your first payment for the Service Plan then we will notify you of that fact before the 48 hours expires. You will then have the choice of:

  1. Cancelling your order and receiving a full refund;
  2. Proceeding with the order, in which case we will issue a refund for all the days from the day you place your order up to and including the day before work commences.

If you choose option 2 above, then:

We can commence service in accordance with the above either with or without your explicit agreement to the start date and time.

Continuous Service

From the time we commence the Service, the Service will be provided on an ongoing basis until cancelled. Specifically, we are not able to suspend the Service at your request and then re-commence the Service later.

Plan Definitions

You acknowledge that certain limits to the scope of our service apply to all our Service Plans and you agree that we shall not under any circumstances be obliged to carry out work of any type that is not explicitly included in your Service Plan as advertised on our website.

Confidential Information

Each party will maintain all Confidential Information of the other party in strict confidence and will not at any time or for any reason disclose any Confidential Information of the other to any third party without the disclosing party’s prior written consent.

Neither party will use any Confidential Information of the other for any purpose whatsoever except in performing its duties and exercising its rights under this Agreement.

Neither party will disclose any Confidential Information of the other to any of its agents or employees who do not participate directly in the performance of its duties or exercise of its rights under this Agreement, and each party will advise its employees who are permitted access to any Confidential Information of the other party, of the restrictions on disclosure and use set forth in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may disclose the Confidential Information of the other if it believes in good faith that any applicable law, rule, or regulation requires the disclosure, provided that it makes a reasonable effort to give the disclosing party as much advanced notice as may be practicable.

On termination or expiration of this Agreement, each party will return or destroy all Confidential Information obtained from the other party and copies thereof.

Either party may use for any purpose without obligation to the other party, information (other than Confidential Information) in non-tangible form, which may be recalled by persons who have had access to the Confidential Information, and which results from work with the Confidential Information.

You agree that, if you dispute any payment(s) made to us, then we will have the right to disclose any information we see fit to any financial service provider(s) involved in processing each disputed transaction, and that the Confidential Information provisions in this Agreement do not apply to our communications with those entities.

Nothing in this Clause will prohibit or restrict our right to provide the same or similar products or services furnished hereunder to other parties. You acknowledge and agree that the restrictions on Confidential Information contained in this Agreement shall not apply to the general knowledge, skills and experience gained by us or our employees while engaged by you.

Sufficient Information

Where relevant, you agree to provide us with sufficient detail about, and access to, your services, policies and systems to enable us to provide the Service to you and, if applicable, your customers.

Non Solicitation of Employees or Contractors

Except for the Service itself, You will not directly or indirectly, during this Agreement and for a period of three years after its expiry or termination solicit, discuss compensation/monies/wages, engage, employ, contract or otherwise work in any manner with any person who is or was employed or engaged by us (including our subsidiaries). This obligation applies not only to you but also to each of your Directors, principals, partners, employees and contractors (where existent). In the event that You or one or more of Your Directors, principals, partners, employees or contractors breaches this section, then You agree to pay us a fee of US$5,000 for each Junior virtual assistant, US$6,000 for each Senior virtual assistant and US$7,000 for each Project Manager for each breach (that is, once for each employee) plus any legal costs incurred by us in recovering such fees from you.

You acknowledge that the three-year period mentioned above is no greater than is reasonably required to protect the goodwill in the business.

Buy-Out Clause

If you decide you would like to work directly with your virtual assistant or project manager outside of the relationship through SUPREME OUTSOURCING, you have the option to exercise the Buy-Out Clause. You agree to pay us a fee of US$5,000 for each Junior virtual assistant, US$6,000 for each Senior virtual assistant and US$7,000 for each Project Manager that you wish to Buy Out. You are not allowed to discuss this Buy Out with your virtual assistant or project manager or any kinds of compensation/monies/wages during the process.  If you are in breach of that, you agree to exercise and pay the Buy Out fee immediately.  Only after Buy Out fee is paid do we agree you will discuss any compensation/monies/wages with your virtual assistant or project manager and begin working directly with them.

Password Security

You must keep confidential, all passwords created or used in relation to the Service.

You must not:

  • make any password created or used in connection with the Service, available to the public or to any other third person;
  • allow the public or any other third person to access your account, other than as agreed by us.

All passwords provided by you to us are kept confidential. Passwords are only provided to our employees on a need-to-know basis.

Superuser (Root) Access

You may, at your discretion, provide us with superuser (root) access to your server(s). Alternatively, you can provide us with access to a restricted set of superuser commands by using a tool such as sudo if you wish.

Call Volume Limits

If you purchase a Service Plan from us which includes Phone Support, a maximum number of calls may apply each month. The maximum number of calls is not cumulative, and all unused calls are forfeited at the end of each monthly billing cycle.

If we determine, at our sole discretion, that you have reached the monthly call limit for your Service Plan, then we will discontinue the Service until the beginning of the next billing month. In such cases:

  • The Service will be deemed to have been delivered in full for the current billing month, and no refund will apply under any circumstances;
  • You can arrange for support to resume prior to the next billing month by purchasing an additional/replacement Service Plan, in which case support will re-commence within 24 hours of receiving and accepting your order for the new Service Plan.

Phone Provider

If you choose to avail Phone Support, then you have full responsibility for paying all bills and amounts due to that Phone Provider, and you acknowledge and agree that we will not be responsible for paying any such amounts (in whole or in part) under any circumstances.

If your Phone Provider provides an option to make outbound calls then we may, at our sole discretion, use that feature to make outbound calls in relation to the service we are providing to your customers, such as making outbound calls to test that the phone line is working or to call your customers back in relation to their support issues.

We reserve the right to decline to work with any specific Phone Provider(s) as we see fit. For example, we may decline to work with a particular provider if their service is insufficiently reliable and leads to too many dropped or lost calls. If we decline to work with the Phone Provider you have selected, then you would need to sign up with an alternative Phone Provider. Under no circumstances will we be liable for any costs or damages resulting from our declining to work with a particular provider.

Voice Over IP (VOIP) Technology

You acknowledge that, due to the nature of VOIP technology, line quality cannot be guaranteed and that outages and line quality degradation may occur from time to time. You acknowledge and agree that fees will not be refunded, nor work hours repeated, due to such outages. If you choose the Phone Provider option, then responsibility for the operation and quality-level of the VOIP connection rests solely with you.

Support From Us Directly To You

If you require support directly from us, and if such support is covered by the Service Plan you have purchased from us, then your request(s) for support must be lodged via the method prescribed in the “Notice” section of this Agreement.

We will provide support to you as required, within reason, and at our discretion, subject to the limitations applying to your Service Plan as advertised on our site.

We will not provide you with training in server administration or other tasks.

No Third-Party Support

This section applies if your Service Plan requires us to provide support to your customers.

Unless we explicitly agree otherwise in writing, we will only provide support to your Direct Customers and not to customers of any other company/entity. For example, if you have multiple companies then you would need to purchase a separate Support Plan for each company.

We reserve the sole right to decide which customers are Direct Customers and which customers are not.

Time of Support

If you have purchased a Service Plan which covers 24 hours a day then each 24-hour support period will be deemed to start at midnight, Greenwich Mean Time (GST).

Staff Scheduling and Rotation

We endeavor to provide stable staffing but we reserve the right to assign and re-assign staff as we see fit. Changes of staff may occur with or without notice and you agree that we do not need to provide any compensation, refund or reimbursement of any kind if such staff changes adversely affect you.

We reserve the right to assign staff to shift times as we see fit.

You acknowledge that, unless otherwise specified in your Service Plan’s details on our website, it is our company policy for all staff to rotate shifts once per month and that therefore the daily work period of each individual staff member will vary from month to month. Shift rotations occur around the same date of each month so the first shift rotation may occur at any time during your first month of service and then will generally occur at approximate one-month intervals after that.

Meal Breaks

All staff are entitled to:

  • An average of up to 60 minutes of meal breaks and two 15 minute breaks per 8-hour shift;
  • An average of up to 30 minutes of meal breaks and one 15 minute breaks per 4-hour shift.

Time spent on breaks in accordance with the above entitlements forms part of your paid support period and you will not be reimbursed or refunded in any way for time spent on meal breaks as per the above entitlements.

Staff Absences

If your Service Plan requires us to provide 24-hour/7-day service (as specified in the Service Plan features as advertised on our website) then we will provide replacement staff to ensure ongoing coverage (with the exception of meal breaks for Dedicated Support service plans). In all other cases the following applies:

  • Staff may be absent from work due to leave, sickness, public holidays and other extenuating circumstances;
  • Replacement staff will not be provided on the day of the absence. Instead, the absence will be recorded so that it can be reimbursed to you at a later time. Such reimbursed days will be referred to as “Make-up Days”;
  • Once you have at least three Make-up Days owing to you, you can request that we work those days. We will then assign staff to work the Make-up Days for you, starting within 14 days of your request for the Make-up Days to be worked. All Make-up Days owing will be worked on consecutive days (excluding public holidays and the regular weekly off day of the staff involved) and no Make-up Days can be saved for later;
  • Upon service cancellation, we will work all the Make-up Days owing to you immediately following the end of your regular paid-up period. If you ask us not to provide the Make-up Days at that time, then all Make-up Days will automatically be forfeited and will no longer be owed to you;
  • We reserve the right to assign Make-up Day staff as we see fit;
  • The staff assigned to work the Make-up Days will be of the same type (e.g. web designer) as the staff member who was absent.

Supervision Level

For all other Service Plans we provide basic supervision only, meaning that we will ensure that your assigned staff:

  • Attend work punctually and stay for the required hours;
  • Apply themselves effectively while at work;
  • Take only the allowed duration of meal breaks;
  • Comply with our administrative procedures;
  • And so on.

Please note in particular that we do not provide project management services and so you will need to monitor the work undertaken by your assigned staff.

It is your responsibility to make good use of staff time by assigning sufficient, clearly-defined, appropriate work – charges still apply for time that your assigned staff are sitting idle.

No significantly selective support

This section applies if your Service Plan requires us to provide support to your customers.

The queries you require us to answer on your behalf must be generally representative of your entire query base. In particular, the queries you direct to us must not contain an unusually high proportion of your hardest or most time-consuming queries, or your most challenging customers.

Virus Scanning

We scan incoming and outgoing messages for viruses. However we do not guarantee that every message will be scanned, or that every virus will be detected and removed. Additionally, we reserve the right to remove attachments from incoming and outgoing email messages. Messages we answer on your behalf through your ticket system are not scanned for viruses unless your ticket system includes virus scanning facilities.

Our virus scanning facilities provide a high level of protection against viruses but you acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for protecting your and your customers’ property and email accounts from virus threats.

Backups

You are responsible for backing up your servers and data.

You are responsible for backing up and storing any works we undertake for you, including but not limited to website designs and computer programs. You acknowledge that we do not have any obligation to keep a copy of work we undertake for you.

Ownership of Work Produced

This section applies to any computer program(s), computer code, website design(s) or graphic design(s) we produce for you in relation to your Service Plan if and only if the Service has been paid for in full. Such works are your property subject to the following restrictions:

  • Licensing restrictions apply to most images used in website and graphic design work. You must not re-use the images for any other purpose and must not redistribute the images in any way, shape, or form, nor use the images in website templates for multiple re-sale, unless you have our express written permission to do so. Such permission can only be obtained by contacting us through our contact form at (http:// SUPREME OUTSOURCING.com) and cannot be given by your assigned staff;
  • Some common, generic computer program functions and subprocedures may be re-used in projects that we undertake for other clients. Examples of generic functions include functions written to trim whitespace from a text string or to validate an email address. You agree that we have the right to re-use generic code in this way, free of cost.

Hardware and Software

You are responsible for all costs associated with the hardware and software you use to provide your products and services, including but not limited to your: server hardware and software; website; ticket system/software; network; billing software; email services; encryption/privacy services;video editing software, graphic design software, accounting software and backup systems.

We will not authorize any charges by third parties on your behalf for hardware and/or software purchases, or related products and/or services You are fully responsible to provide us with the account(s) to use on your behalf.

Server Outages

You agree and acknowledge that, if any server which we are providing support for experiences an outage, responsibility for minimizing the length of the outage rests with you, whether or not you are aware of the outage. Our staff may assist in that process (if such assistance is within the scope of the service we are providing to you) but you agree that we will not be liable for any outage period in whole or in part. You further agree that you will take reasonable steps to ensure that you are notified promptly of any outages via your own monitoring system (in addition to Server Monitor) or a third-party monitoring system. We recommend that you always contact your assigned technicians when an outage occurs.

Acceptable Content

We will not perform any task that will or is likely to require any employee(s) of ours to view or work with content which is sexually explicit, hateful, obscene, offensive, illegal, threatening, racist or contains depictions of nudity.

Notice

You agree to correspond with us via the contact page (http://SUPREME OUTSOURCING.com/contact) or by sending email messages to any email address we specify for that purpose. If we need to contact you for any reason we will do so via email, instant messenger or SMS only. You acknowledge that due to the unreliable nature of the SMS protocol any messages we send to you via SMS will not necessarily reach you.

You agree to notify us promptly of any changes to your email address or other contact details.

Money back guarantee

If you cancel the Service within 7 days of the start of this Agreement, and request a refund within 7 days of cancellation, we will refund any unused portion of the payment made by you for the cancelled services within 7 days of your refund request, as long as you have not previously claimed a refund under this clause. That is, we will issue a maximum of one refund per customer.

Other than as described in the previous paragraph, all payments are non-refundable. If however we decide that exceptional circumstances apply then we will provide a refund, or partial refund, at our discretion. Refunds will not be issued for days on which staff were assigned and on duty for you.

Billing Cycle and Payments

Service is provided on a 28-day month (4-week) basis and a payment for one month covers service provided during a period of 28 days (4-weeks) from the time you choose your virtual assistant.

For monthly service plans, our billing cycle is monthly in advance. Your initial payment is due at the time you open your account.

All prices advertised on our website are in US dollars.

Payments via PayPal

This subsection applies if you have selected to pay your fees via PayPal. Fees must be paid in US dollars via PayPal (http://www.paypal.com) using PayPal’s subscription payment option. That is, you need to authorize PayPal to charge your credit card (or PayPal account) automatically each month on or shortly after the monthly anniversary of your joining date. You agree to become a Verified account holder with PayPal within 30 days of the start of this Agreement, so that we can be confident in the validity of your credit card details. If PayPal are unable to charge you successfully in any month then they will notify you via email, at the address they have on record for you, that their attempt to charge you has failed. After three failures they will automatically cancel your subscription. It is solely your responsibility to update the email address which PayPal have on record for you (in relation to your PayPal subscription) if required. A current PayPal subscription for our Service is required and so if your PayPal subscription is cancelled at any time, we will cease to provide the Service until a new PayPal subscription is in place.

Credit Card Payments Which Are Not Via PayPal

This subsection applies if you have elected to provide us with your credit card details so that we can charge your credit card directly. Prices are quoted in United States dollars and are charged in United States on the day of the charge. We will charge your credit card automatically each month on or shortly after the monthly anniversary of your joining date. If we are unable to charge you successfully in any month then we will notify you via email, at the email address we have on record for you, that our attempt to charge you has failed. After three failures we will automatically cancel the Service and, if your credit card is valid, we will continue to attempt to charge any overdue fees to your credit card until the charge is successful. You agree to update us within seven (7) days of any changes to your credit card details. An administrative fee of US$30.00 will apply to each failed attempt to charge your credit card and will be added to the amount payable at the subsequent charge attempt.

Overdue Payments

If your payment is overdue we will discontinue the Service until payment of all applicable fees is made via one of our supported payment methods.

Allocation of Payments

For each payment you make, we have the sole right to decide which due amount(s) to apply the payment to.

Prices

Prices are subject to change without notice. Any change in monthly fees will apply to your next service period, but will not be payable for your current service period.  There will be no grand-fathering in of prices, so when prices are changed on our website, your next service period billing price will reflect that.

Prices will increase 10% on the anniversary from the start of your service each year.  So your 13th month billing statement will reflect that, then your 25th  month, then 37th and so on.

Bonuses

We love when clients are so happy they want to give a team member one time bonus.  If you would like to provide that to a team member, you are never to discuss or give a bonus to a team member directly, doing so you will have breached the Non Solicitation Clause.  You are to contact us directly and send us the money directly and 100% of the bonus will go directly to the team member.  Once they receive the bonus, they will contact you to thank you.

If you provide more than 2 bonuses per year, we will ask that rather than give the team member more bonuses, we increase your monthly rate by whatever percentage you wish and that raise will be reflected for the team member.

We provide all team members who have been with us for over a year with an end of year bonus,  We encourage all clients to also consider providing a bonus also but it is not mandatory.  If you would like to provide to your team member an end of year bonus, please do not discuss it with your team member, you can send it to us and we will give 100% of it to them, do not send any monies to them directly ever.  Once it is received by them, they will know you gave it to them and they will reach out to thank you.

Cancellation of Service

You may cancel the Agreement at any time by providing us with written authorization to cease the Service. You acknowledge that our regular fees will continue to apply until you explicitly and unambiguously cancel service and advise us of the date of cancellation (which must be at least one day after the day you explicitly and unambiguously cancel service).

Since all fees are payable in advance, in order to avoid charges for a subsequent billing cycle, you need to cancel the Service prior to the end of the current billing cycle. We recommend that you cancel your PayPal subscription (if relevant) prior to your next billing date, and also advise us of your intentions in writing prior to the end of your current billing cycle so that we know to cease providing the service, and then no further charges will be payable.

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel the Service for any reason, and at our sole discretion.

No service will be provided after your Service Plan has been cancelled, including but not limited to bug fixes, website maintenance and data/file retrieval.

Right to Outsource

At our sole discretion, we may outsource the Service or the performance of any work, or part thereof, relating to the Services to any of our subsidiary companies.

If we outsource any part of the Services or the performance of any part of the work comprising the Services, the terms and conditions of this Agreement will apply mutatis mutandis to the subsidiary company to whom the work or Services have been outsourced. For clarity, this Agreement between you and us will continue on foot and we will hold the rights and obligations of this Agreement on trust for our subsidiary company.

Modifications to Service

We reserve the right to modify or discontinue the Service (or any part thereof) as we see fit, with or without notice. We will not be liable to you or any other party for such modifications to the Service.

We reserve the right to update these Terms and Conditions from time to time. Any updates to these Terms and Conditions will apply to the Service from the time that this Agreement is updated on our website and an email is sent to the email address we have on record for you to advise you that our Terms and Conditions of Service have been modified (whether or not that message is properly received and read by you).

Intellectual Property

You agree to indemnify, hold harmless and defend at your own expense us from and against any and all Claims for infringement of copyright, patents, trade marks, industrial designs or other intellectual property rights issued under the laws of any country where:

  • the copyright, patents, trade marks, industrial designs or other intellectual property were provided by you; or
  • you represented, expressly or impliedly, that the copyright, patents, trade marks, industrial designs or other intellectual property were your intellectual property; or
  • you had asked us to download or otherwise copy or access or use the copyright, patents, trade marks, industrial designs or other intellectual property.

You further agree not to provide us with any item nor ask us to download/access/copy/use any item, including but not limited to images, software, computer code and written material, unless you have the legal right to use those items for the purpose our work relates to.

We undertake to give you prompt notice of any Claim described above that is made against us or any of our subsidiaries, dealers or customers and you will forthwith defend any such Claims and make settlements thereof at your own expense.

You acknowledge that any and all of the copyright, patents, trade marks, industrial designs or other intellectual property rights used or subsisting in or in connection with our business, marketing and/or support material relating to our business and all documentation and manuals relating thereto are and will remain our property and you will not, during or at any time after the expiry or termination of this Agreement, in any way question or dispute the ownership by us thereof.

You will not, during or after the expiry or termination of this Agreement, without the prior written consent of us, use or adopt any name, trade name, trading style or commercial designation that includes or is similar to or may be mistaken for the whole or any part of any trade mark, trade name, trading style or commercial designation used by us.
