5.1 To the extent a Member provides information that has not been made public “Confidential Information” to another Member, the recipient will protect the secrecy of the discloser’s Confidential Information with the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information, but in no event with less than due care, and will: (a) not disclose or permit others to disclose another’s Confidential Information to anyone without first obtaining the express written consent of the owner of the Confidential Information; (b) not use or permit the use of another’s Confidential Information, except as necessary for the performance of Interpretation Services (including, without limitation, the storage or transmission of Confidential Information on or through the Freelensia Platform for use by the Interpreter); and (c) limit access to another’s Confidential Information to its personnel who need to know such information for the performance of Interpretation Services.

The party that received Confidential Information agrees to provide written certification to the party disclosing the Confidential Information of compliance with this subsection within ten days after the receipt of disclosing party’s written request for such certification.

5.3 Freelensia may at any time ask the Interpreter to provide a list of important vocabularies (“Vocabularies”) used during the Events to better assist Interpreters for future Events. Vocabularies shall be public words, terms and phrases (can be seen or heard outside the Client or the specific Event wherefrom they originated) and therefore are not treated as Confidential Information.

7.1 Freelensia charges a reservation fee ("Reservation Fee") to the Client everytime the Client sends a reservation request to an Interpreter. This fee will be displayed at an interpreter listing. Freelensia reserves the right to change the Reservation Fee at any time, and we will provide Members adequate notice of any fee changes before they become effective. You are responsible for paying the reservation fee that you owe to Freelensia. Except in the case where the interpreter rejects the reservation request, the reservation fee is non-refundable.

7.2 After paying the Reservation Fee, the Client is obliged to pay the event fee ("Event Fee") to the interpreter on-site or by other methods mutually agreed between the two.

7.3 In the case the Client wants to cancel or postpone the event and the Interpretation Service of a reserved Interpreter,  the Client must notify the Interpreter by sending a chat message on the Freelensia platform no later than 72 hours before the start time of the event as indicated on the Client's relevant listing or as previously communicated with the Interpreter on the Freelensia platform. In this case, the Client is no longer obliged to pay the Event Fee to the Interpreter.

7.4 In the case the Client fails to notify the Interpreter in this way, the Client is obliged to pay the Event Fee to the Interpreter as agreed regardless of whether the event is actually cancelled or not.

7.5 Once the Interpreter has accepted a reservation, the Interpreter is not allowed to cancel his Interpretation Service unless in the following situations:

• Death or serious illness/injury of a family member or the Interpreter.
• Natural disasters, political crises or other force majeur phenomenom.

If the Interpreter encounters one of the two situations above, the Interpreter must notify the Client immediately on the Freelensia Platform and submit official evidence of the situation to Freelensia within 72 hours from the moment the situation arises. 

8.1 If you violate the letter or spirit of the Terms, or otherwise create risk or possible legal exposure for us, we can stop providing all or part of the Freelensia Platform to you. We will notify you by email or at the next time you attempt to access your account.

8.2 In addition to account termination, depending on the nature of the violation/misconduct, we may make public or share with other Members the nature of the incident to protect the interests of the Freelensia Community.

8.3 Freelensia may conduct activities to ensure that Members are following these Terms, such as:

• Monitor and modify Member Content as appropriate.
• Simulate the violating behavior of another Member, such as requesting you to provide Contact Information.

9.1 If there are disagreements between you and another Member concerning the Interpretation Service for a particular Event, you may file for a dispute resolution with Freelensia. 

9.2 Freelensia may, at its own discretion, accept or reject your request for dispute resolution. If the request is accepted, Freelensia may, at its own discretion, review the Content on the Freelensia Platform such as Listing information and message history between the Members. Freelensia will not take into consideration communications between the Members that take place outside of the Freelensia Platform, with the exception of the Freelensia Time Sheet that the Client and the Interpreter are to sign after the Event finishes.

9.3 Based on the materials above, Freelensia may issue a conclusion regarding the dispute. For example, the type of Interpretation service is different, or the duration is longer in actuality than as described in the Client's listing. As a result, Freelensia may require one or more parties involved in the dispute to pay, pay the difference, refund a certain amount or keep the status quo with regards to the dispute.

9.4 Freelensia' descision is final and binding. You recognize that your failure to comply with Freelensia's verdict may result in Freelensia conducting some of the actions described in the Countermeasures section, including closing of your Account and announcing the incident to the Freelensia Community. 

10.1 If you choose to use the Freelensia Platform or Collective Content, you do so voluntarily and at your sole risk. The Freelensia Platform and Collective Content is provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind, either express or implied.

10.2 You agree that you have had whatever opportunity you deem necessary to investigate the Freelensia Services, laws, rules, or regulations that may be applicable to your Listings and/or Host Services you are receiving and that you are not relying upon any statement of law or fact made by Freelensia relating to a Listing.

10.3 If we choose to conduct identity verification or background checks on any Member, to the extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim warranties of any kind, either express or implied, that such checks will identify prior misconduct by a Member or guarantee that a Member will not engage in misconduct in the future.

10.4 You agree that some Interpretation Services may carry inherent risk, and by using those Interpretation Services, you choose to assume those risks voluntarily. For example, an Interpreter may not perform the Interpretation Service satisfactorily to your expectation during the Event, or an Interpreter may not show up to the Event due to extenuating circumstances or willful negligence/misconduct. You agree to release and hold harmless Freelensia from all liabilities and claims that arise in any way from any event cancelation, non-performance, non-attendance that occurs during the event.
