2. Terms of Use of the Global Inspections Group, Inc. (T/A OUTSPECTION.com) B2G marketplace application.

These Terms of Use (hereinafter referred to as “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the OUTSPECTION Marketplace (branded OUTSPECTION.com) as defined in Section 1 above, and are made available by OUTSPECTION, its parent companies, subsidiaries, representatives, affiliates, executives, and directors (hereinafter collectively referred to as, “OUTSPECTION “). These Terms incorporate by reference all other Terms of Use and Policies applicable to your use of the OUTSPECTION Services. For example, our collection and use of personal information related to your access and use of OUTSPECTION Marketplace is described in our Privacy Policy. Your use of the OUTSPECTION Marketplace is also subject to the OUTSPECTION customer Generated Content Policy.

3. Scope of the OUTSPECTION Marketplace

OUTSPECTION Marketplace is a digital platform created to:

(i) facilitate the connection between customers and third-party companies or freelancers, if applicable in your country, if inspection companies or inspectors are registered on the OUTSPECTION platform (hereinafter referred to as “Inspectors and Inspection companies“),

(ii) publish offers and information from inspection suppliers available for jobs, as well as

(iii) provide tools for research and communication with each other.

OUTSPECTION serves as a platform to connect customers and Inspection Suppliers, facilitating the exchange of services and products between them. OUTSPECTION does not deliver or provide any Inspections or services provided by registered Inspectors and Inspection companies. When customers purchase an inspection from an Inspector, they are entering into a contract directly with that Inspector. While the contractual relationship is between the customer and the Inspector, OUTSPECTION plays an active role in managing the financial transactions between the parties. Payments for inspections are made to GLOBAL INSPECTIONS GROUP Inc, which holds the funds until the completion and validation of the inspection report. Once the customer validates the inspection report, GLOBAL INSPECTIONS GROUP Inc transfers the payment to the respective Inspector. In this capacity, GLOBAL INSPECTIONS GROUP Inc acts as a financial custodian to safeguard the interests of both parties involved in the transaction, ensuring a secure and efficient payment process.

OUTSPECTION is not and does not become a party or an integral part of any contractual relationship between customers and Inspectors or inspection companies. However, OUTSPECTION recognizes the importance of maintaining service quality and ensuring smooth communication between all parties involved. In the event of nonconformities, inconvenient approaches, communication problems, or deficiencies in service quality, OUTSPECTION has a procedure in place to address such issues (next best inspector or offer is provided free of charge) and apply appropriate sanctions or corrective actions, as necessary. This procedure aims to maintain the quality and integrity of the services provided through the platform.

Customers/administrators are allowed and encouraged to maintain continuous contact with Inspectors during, and after the service for any topic related to the service scope. OUTSPECTION’s role as a facilitator is to provide a seamless communication channel between the parties to ensure successful service delivery. OUTSPECTION is not acting as an agent in any capacity for any party using OUTSPECTION Marketplace. The parties must ensure that they follow all applicable laws. OUTSPECTION does not act as a guarantor for any customer of the OUTSPECTION Marketplace. And those parties need to make sure that they comply with all applicable laws. OUTSPECTION personnel may on occasion be delegated to use the platform on behalf of customers. This does not detract from any and all other terms and conditions between customers and Service providers, as set above and below.

4. Use of OUTSPECTION Marketplace by authorized customers, and administrators.

Company use of OUTSPECTION is voluntary and at the Company’s own risk. OUTSPECTION Marketplace has no control over and does not guarantee (i) the veracity or accuracy of any description, classification, evaluation, or other information about the Company, including, without limitation, Company name, description, biographical information (hereinafter collectively referred to as, “Customer Content“), or (ii) the performance or conduct of any Inspector or third-party inspection company. OUTSPECTION does not endorse any Inspector, or Inspection supplier. While OUTSPECTION facilitates the connection between customers and Inspection Suppliers, OUTSPECTION is committed to maintaining the confidentiality of customer profiles and takes measures to ensure that the personal information of customers is protected.

OUTSPECTION also recognizes the importance of verifying and validating the competencies of Inspectors. As part of the vetting process, OUTSPECTION thoroughly reviews the qualifications and experience of Inspectors before they are authorized to provide services through the platform. This is carried out in the form of a due diligence carried out for each application. The application to become a registered provider is a two-step process, involving a pre-application, and the signature of a contractor agreement.

However, ultimately, OUTSPECTION does not guarantee (i) the veracity or accuracy of any Customer Content, or (ii) the performance or conduct of any Inspector or third-party inspection company. OUTSPECTION does not endorse any Inspector or Inspection supplier. Customers should always exercise due diligence and care when deciding whether to use the OUTSPECTION platform unless a delegation of authority has been given by the customer to OUTSPECTION to conduct its business on its behalf.

The Company will be responsible for all information published on the OUTSPECTION Marketplace and is committed to:

In such cases, OUTSPECTION will make reasonable efforts to provide the Company and other customers with advance notice of any scheduled downtime or interruptions that may impact their operations. OUTSPECTION will aim to minimize any disruption to customers and work diligently to restore full functionality as quickly as possible.

12. Fees and Billing. – Customer Charges / accepted bids/payment process

Accepted bids or “deals” struck between the Company and the Inspector are payable to OUTSPECTION upfront and are non-refundable. Non- performance of the inspection for any reason whatsoever will result in a “credit” to the Company for the next inspection bid and deal. Following the posting of a request for inspection by the Company, the inspection bids are submitted by the registered inspection providers. The inspection bid, and inspection service are both rendered within the deadlines set forth by the Company (typically between a minimum of 24 and 72 hours for the bid, and up to 24 hours after the inspection for the report). Upon satisfactory completion of the inspection assignment and the uploading of the report by the inspection provider, the payment is made by OUTSPECTION to the inspection provider automatically.

12.1 Refund Policy

Our refund policy aims to ensure satisfaction and transparency for our customers. If an inspection is not carried out, regardless of the reason, we will fully refund the amounts paid, deducting a flat fee of 50 USD from the total sum. However, it is important to note that the refund transfer fees will be borne by you for the return of funds. You will have the option to keep this credited amount for a future inspection if you do not wish to bear these transfer fees. A transaction statement is available upon request via email at the following address: [email protected] the event that the inspection is canceled by the inspector, we commit to replacing them with another inspector at the same rate, whenever possible. If we are unable to provide a replacement, you will be fully reimbursed for the inspection fee. The refund transfer fees to your account will always be at your expense, but you will also have the option to retain a credit for a future inspection. If you decline this alternative proposal, our standard refund policy will apply. This approach aims to streamline the refund process while covering associated administrative costs. We are committed to promptly processing refund requests to ensure a smooth and satisfactory customer experience.

13. Taxes

Unless otherwise indicated on a receipt, and although bids are considered to be all inclusive, all Customer Charges, each to the extent applicable, may be exclusive of applicable taxes payable by the Company, and Company agrees to be responsible for the payment of any such taxes assessed on such Customer Charges, including, but not limited to, all sales, use, VAT or similar taxes, except for taxes based on OUTSPECTION’s income.
