the participation of such member in the service and/or may withhold
any payments relating to participation in the service due to
such member from iassignment.com.
ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS

whether or not it accepts a particular applicant or site for
participation in the service.
REMOVAL FROM NETWORK
iassignment.com.com reserves the right to terminate the participation
of any member or site without reason but expressly including

Members in violation of iassignment.com's Terms and Conditions
will be immediately deactivated. iassignment.com may deactivate
members with no prior notification. Members found in violation
of the Terms and Conditions will not receive any credit or

PAYMENTS
iassignment.com will typically print and mail cheques if the
member requests it AND their account balance is equal to or
greater than $30. This also applies to payments made through
the PayPal service. All amounts are stated in and all payments
will be made in US funds. We verify all deposits and might
ask you to verify yours; If you refuse to send verification
information via E-mail, Fax or Phone, we reserve the right
to refund the deposit and terminate your account. iassignment.com
reserves the right to suspend a withdrawal if the source of
the funds is suspected to be fraudulent. Any funds received
from an account having made a fraudulent deposit (e.g. stolen
credit card) will be reversed immediately. If in a fraudulent
payment situation a withdrawal has already been processed,
you will be expected to return the funds to your iassignment.com
account or face account termination.
As previously stated, any member site that iassignment.com
removes from the service due to violation of the Terms and
Conditions will receive no credit or payment.
COPYRIGHTS
No copyright material can be posted on iassignment.com. This
includes scripts which are sold by the author. Only posting
sections of these scripts, as examples, will be permitted.
A "section" being no more than 10% of the script's
contents. This is meant to protect the author's rights.
MODIFICATIONS
iassignment.com reserves the right to change the member Terms
and Conditions at any time. It is the member's responsibility
to check these Terms and Conditions from time to time for
such changes. In the event iassignment.com offers any additional
or replacement services then this agreement shall apply to
such services in the absence of any new agreement specific
to such services which is entered into between the parties.
OWNERSHIP
Members agree that all information contained on a website
operated by iassignment.com, and all information compiled
by iassignment.com through operation of the affiliate program,
is the proprietary information of iassignment.com. Personal
information provided by members to iassignment.com will be
kept confidential and will not be distributed to any third
party.
E-MAIL ADDRESSES
Members agree not to post their e-mail address on the site,
except in the "e-mail" field of the signup form,
or when asked by iassignment.com at any other time. There
should be no need to give anyone your e-mail address. It is
automatically provided if you choose a programmer (or you
are the programmer chosen for) a project, and before that
time you can use the message board to communicate. This does
not only apply to e-mail addresses, but to all methods of
communication, including phone, ICQ, AIM, MSN Messenger, etc...
See "Avoiding Commissions" below for the reason.
PROVIDING CONTACT INFORMATION
You are prohibited from making direct contact with another
member, unless it's for a project you (a programmer) have
been picked for, or you (a webmaster) have picked a programmer
for. This includes giving out your e-mail address, ICQ number,
phone number, or any other method of contact outside of this
site. iassignment.com provides you with message boards, which
should be sufficient for pre-project planning. The only exception
to this is on "Featured" projects. If a project
has the "Featured" graphic on it, that means the
webmaster has paid a flat fee in advance, and you ARE allowed
to provide contact information in the message board. Note
that the iassignment.com system does not distinguish between
featured and non-featured message board posts, so you will
still get a warning when submitting an e-mail address, even
if the project is featured.
AVOIDING COMMISSIONS
You are strictly prohibited from attempting to negotiate the
fee for a project with another member directly (outside of
iassignment.com) after that project has been created/opened
and before that project has been closed (basically, during
an ongoing project). But this also applies to any project
that was closed without a programmer being chosen, and then
contacting them about the project anyway. Both parties are
responsible for notifying iassignment.com if the payment amount
increases (above the bid amount) after the project is closed.
Receiving a larger amount than the original project bid, without
notifying us, will be considered an attempt to avoid the commissions.
When a programmer requests a withdrawal, we always review
all payments received for each project to verify that they
match the bid. If at the time of a withdrawal request the
programmer has failed to notify iassignment.com staff of a
payment received above the amount of his bid (a total payment
above US$100), iassignment.com reserves the right to deduct
double the fee for the amount that should have been reported.
We believe our commissions are very fair and justified for
the service we provide, therefore we will absolutely not tolerate
any of this activity on iassignment.com.
BIDDING
Programmers can only place bids that equal the total amount
of money they are requesting for the project. You cannot post
an hourly bid or any other abnormal type of bid. This applies
to webmasters too. Webmasters cannot create projects that
directly or indirectly require programmers to place hourly
or other abnormal bids. The only exception, for both webmasters
and programmers, is when the project is featured. See featured
project information at http://www.iassignment.com.com/featured.shtml.
POSTING Assignments
New users are limited to the posting of only 3 projects before
being asked to make a deposit. This is meant to protect other
users and prevent fraudulent activity. A user is required
to deposit any amount of funds before they gain the right
to post unlimited projects. A user may request higher posting
limits, under special circumstances, by simply contacting
iassignment.com support.
THE ROLE OF iassignment.com
iassignment.com functions as a venue to connect webmasters
and programmers in a virtual marketplace. As a neutral facilitator,
iassignment.com is not directly involved in the actual transactions
between users of the Site. As a result, iassignment.com has
no control over the truth, accuracy, quality, legality, or
safety of postings made by users. Because verifying the identity
of a user on the Internet is difficult, iassignment.com cannot
and does not confirm the identity of users. iassignment.com
also does not confirm nor verify the qualifications, background,
or abilities of users. Therefore, We recommend that You be
careful and exercise common sense and good judgment when dealing
with any member on the Site. You are enouraged to review our
Project Guidlines before taking part in a project. If you
are unsatisifed with another member, the most iassignment.com
can do is refund the project commission you have been charged
by us. We cannot refund the money you have sent to someone,
we are not responsible for your transactions. iassignment.com
is not responsible for fraudulent payments made by users and
cannot be held liable for financial loss incurred from fraudulent
transactions. It is the receiver's responsibility to verify
the identity and background of the sender.
