Terms and Conditions for Rogue Support End Users

Last Revised: May 8th, 2023

Rogue Support LLC, a limited liability company doing business as Rogue Support (“Rogue Support” or “we”), is a software company in the business of connecting IT service technicians and consultants (“Technicians”) with end users (“you” or “End Users”) through its lead generation, price negotiation, IT services portal and payment software system (the “Rogue Platform”) in order to facilitate the resolution of the End User’s home or business network issues by qualified Technicians. By checking the box that you agree to these Terms and Conditions for Rogue Support End Users (this “Agreement”), you, as the End User, expressly agree to the terms, conditions, and covenants set forth herein.

  1. Use of Rogue Platform
    1. You may use the Rogue Platform pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and for the sole purpose of accessing the Services as provided in the licenses granted under this Agreement (“Permitted Use”). Except for the Permitted Use, you warrant that you will not use the site in any other manner, on your own behalf or on the behalf of others.
    2. Without limiting the foregoing, you specifically agree not to engage in the following conduct:
      1. Harass, threaten, or otherwise violate the rights of any other party or misrepresent the identity of a user, impersonate any person or entity, falsely state or otherwise misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity in connection with the Rogue Platform or Rogue Support, or state or imply that Rogue Support endorses any statement or comments you make;
      2. Engage in fraudulent or deceptive conduct;
      3. Make any commercial use of the Rogue Platform except as authorized hereunder;
      4. Use technology or other means to impermissibly or illegally access Rogue Support’s network or other users’ accounts, or otherwise violate the security of the Rogue Platform;
      5. Interfere or attempt to interfere with the working or functionality of the Rogue Platform or any activity being conducted on the Rogue Platform, including, without limitation, the introduction of viruses or other programs that interrupt, destroy, or limit the functionality of the Rogue Platform;
      6. Upload or transfer information to the Rogue Platform that (i) is obscene, libelous, blasphemous or defamatory, or incites hatred, terrorism or any similar offense, (ii) is unlawful or misleading, (iii) infringes upon any third party’s intellectual property rights, privacy rights or other similar legal rights, or (iv) is determined by Rogue Support, in its sole discretion, to be unsuitable;
      7. Use the Rogue Platform for collection of personally identifiable information of any individual, including without limitation any End Users;
      8. Remove any copyright, trademark or other proprietary rights notice from the Rogue Platform or materials originating from the Rogue Platform; and
      9. Otherwise violate this Agreement or applicable law.
  2. Requests for Services. If you wish to contract for services through the Rogue Platform, these services are governed by the following policies and procedures:
    1. Account. In order to contract with Rogue Support affiliated Technicians, you must first register an account with Rogue Support. You are responsible for maintaining the security and confidentiality of your login information, including your user name and password, and you agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. Rogue Support reserves the right, for any lawful reason, to terminate your account at any time.
    2. Contracting Process. If you would like to hire a Technician to assist in the diagnosis, repair, or consultation of an IT issue, you may open a new job (a “New Job Request”) through the prompts provided in the Rogue Platform. When you open a New Job Request, you are required to provide a description of the problem and/or the services that you are requesting (the “Job Description”) and the maximum number of hours (“Maximum Billable Hours”) that you are willing to pay to have the particular job completed. If a New Job is accepted by a Technician, you will have an opportunity to confirm acceptance (at which time it will become a “Contracted Job”). Upon confirmation, you will be billed at the “Contract Rate” that is automatically populated in the New Job Request form, up to the Maximum Billable Hours. Technicians will bill in increments of 1/10th hours (6 minute increments). Please note that the Contract Rate includes fees that are ultimately payable to the Technician, credit card fees, and fees that are allocable to Rogue Support. When a Technician completes a Contracted Job, you will receive a notification, as well a description of the completed work. You will have 24 hours (“Acceptance Window”) to accept or reject the work that has been completed; provided, that if rejection is not provided within the Acceptance Window, then the Contracted Job will be deemed complete and fulfilled and all amounts owed will be charged as provided hereunder. If work is rejected, then End User will provide the basis for rejection and then Technician will rework or cure any deficiencies at no additional cost. If End User and Technician are unable to agree upon whether a Contracted Job was appropriately rejected, then either may opt to submit the Contracted Job to Rogue Support’s Conflict Resolution Procedure (defined below in Section 9).
    3. Payment Process. Unless other arrangements are made, upon the commencement of a Contracted Job, a one (1) billable hour hold will be placed on your credit card on file via Stripe or similar vendor. Upon completion of a Contracted Job (either through express acceptance or following the end of the Acceptance Window), you will be charged an amount equal to the Contract Rate times the number of hours actually billed by the Technician, which shall not exceed the Maximum Billable Hours (“Maximum Amount”). You agree not to put a stop on or attempt to reverse any credit card payments, for any reason. In the event that End User’s credit card on file is declined, Rogue Support may accept alternative forms of payment, at its sole discretion. Sales tax may be applied to a Contracted Job, if required by applicable law, and End User authorizes Rogue Support to withhold such amounts; however, End User is ultimately responsible for the payment of all applicable sales and use taxes and hereby indemnifies Rogue Support against any such claims for the collections of such amounts. Tax rates are subject to change at any time.
    4. Incomplete or Partially Complete Jobs. Generally, you will not be required to pay for Contracted Jobs that are incomplete or partially completed. Technicians are encouraged to work with End Users to properly scope projects so that the Job Descriptions and Maximum Billable Hours are appropriate and provide an appropriate safety buffer to complete the Contracted Job. The foregoing notwithstanding, there are circumstances that may arise where a Technician provides work but a Contracted Job is incomplete or partially complete for reasons outside of the Technician’s control (referred to herein as “Good Reason”). If a Technician is unable to complete a Contracted Job for a Good Reason, then Technician will be paid for the hours spent on the Contracted Job. Good Reason is determined on a case-by-case basis, with the ultimate decision being that of Rogue Support. This may include that more equipment is needed, equipment is non-functional, or a portion of the customer request deemed unnecessary or impossible to complete. Technicians are required to write a detailed description of work completed, final resolution, and any issues encountered for a ticket to be considered fully resolved. For clarity, “Good Reason” does not include Technician’s failure to adequately scope the Contract Job or provide the Specified Services within the Maximum Billable Hours. For the purpose of an incomplete or partially complete job that is marked with a “Good Reason” flag will be reviewed by Rogue Support in the order received, and the Acceptance Window will be automatically extended until such determination is made.
  3. Reviews. End User understands that reviews of a Technician’s performance are an important way that other end users can determine the quality and reliability of a particular Technician’s skills, professionalism, and timely completion of Contracted Jobs. End User represents that they will make only truthful, accurate reviews of a Technician that they have actually worked with on a Contracted Job. As a general matter, Rogue Support will not remove or alter reviews unless such reviews, in Rogue Support’s sole discretion, constitute harassment, hate speech, offensive content, personal information, contain mature content, are demonstrably false or misleading, or contain any illegal content. The foregoing notwithstanding, Rogue Support reserves the right to remove any review at any time for any reason.
  4. License.
    1. Grant of License. Rogue Support grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-commercial, limited, and revocable license to use the Rogue Platform for the Permitted Use and in accordance with this Agreement (“License”).

    2. Termination of License. Rogue Support reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate the License, delete any user account you have created, or block your future access to the Rogue Platform (or take any combination of the foregoing actions) if:

      2. You do not access your user account for a period of one (1) year or more;
      3. You fail to pay any amount due to a Technician;

      5. For any other lawful business reason in Rogue Support’s discretion.
    3.

Without terminating this Agreement, Rogue Support may in its discretion remove any comments or other content uploaded to the Rogue Platform by you that Rogue Support deems inappropriate or illegal (although, Rogue Support had no obligation to monitor for such content). Upon termination, all provisions of this Agreement which are by their nature intended to survive termination, all representations and warranties, all limitations of liability and all indemnities shall survive such termination.
