Introduction & Scope.
Welcome, these are the Terms and Conditions of Service (hereinafter, the “Terms”) for our platform known as Humanatic, its associated platform providers, along with the website available at www.humanatic.com and its mobile optimized versions (the “Site”).
This is a legal engagement which sets out the terms and conditions by which Century Interactive Co LC (referred to as “Humanatic”) will provide services to you or to the legal entity you represent (‘you’, ‘your’, and/or ‘yourself’).
The terms ‘us’, ‘its’, ‘ours’ and/or ‘we’, as used herein, shall refer to us, Humanatic and/or our affiliates, assignees, successors and/or brands. These Terms shall supplement our Privacy Policy (the “Policy”), incorporated herein by reference.
These Terms also include by reference any signed or executed order form or analogous document executed between Humanatic and you or the entity you represent.

By using our Site, you represent and warrant that you: (a) are of legal age or legal capacity in your jurisdiction;
(b) agree to all of the terms and conditions stated herein; (c) have the right, power, and authority to bind your represented entity or the agency to these terms and conditions.
As our user, you represent, covenant and warrant that you will use the Services only in compliance with Humanatic’s published policies and guidelines then in effect and all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any of these Terms, you are thereby prohibited from using or accessing this Site.
The Site’s accessibility to the user is solely provided for the user’s individual benefit, and you cannot use our services as part of a team or talent agency or in representation of a corporate third party unless an additional agreement has been executed
Services Offered.
Humanatic offers a task-based review platform where independent contractors can open an account with us, listen to calls, and answer simple questions about what happened on those calls. We may also provide other online services, as indicated on our Site from time to time (collectively all the aforesaid activities and functionalities shall be referred to as the “Services”).
Micro Tasks.
You will be able to work from home, listening to recorded calls, and then answering simple questions or providing summaries or recaps about those calls. The tasks available to you will vary depending on your skill level and your historical performance on the Site. We have different categories that pay different amounts for answers. You will start reviewing calls in the easiest categories. Once you have sufficient review volume and achieve a certain accuracy level, you may unlock new higher paying categories.
You are not required to review calls during certain hours or for a specified period of time, meaning you may log in and review as little or as much as you like at times that best suit your schedule. Please be reminded that call availability will vary depending on the time of day, and our largest volume of calls will be available during the hours of 7:00 AM – 10:00 PM Central Time (US).
You shall be responsible for obtaining and maintaining any equipment and ancillary services needed to connect to, access or otherwise use the Services, including, without limitation, modems, hardware, software, earphones, sound devices, operating systems, network and the like (collectively, “Equipment”). You shall also be responsible for maintaining the security of the Equipment, your user account, passwords (including but not limited to user passwords).
Accordingly, you agree that: (i) Humanatic cannot be held liable for any failures in the operation of the interface or integration resulting from acts or omissions by you or the third party providing the Equipment;
(ii) Humanatic shall have no liability or obligation whatsoever to you in relation to unfulfilled, incomplete, or erroneous work tasks arising from failures on your Equipment or your PayPal account.
Account Registration, Verification and Safety.
You must provide accurate and complete information when opening your account with us, including all mandatory fields on the registration form, and a valid, live photo for face verification, and you hereby agree to keep the password for your account as confidential and not to communicate it to any third parties.
The most common reason for a denied account application is due to employment history description presenting a conflict of interest or displaying insufficient English spelling and grammar skills. You will also need a valid and current PayPal account with us in order to start reviewing calls. To sign up for a free account with us, you must first sign up at www.paypal.com.
If you lose or disclose your account credentials, you must promptly inform us, since you are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your account and for keeping your password secure and confidential. Please notify us immediately of any breach or unauthorized use of your account.
Account Suspension & Termination.
Humanatic encourages you to report violations of our guidelines and Terms. We reserve the right, at our sole and final discretion, to deactivate, freeze, suspend, or terminate any account upon any factual or alleged breach of these Terms. You must notify us immediately of any change in your eligibility to use our platform, or if you suspect a breach of security or unauthorized use of your account.
Users undertaking conduct that may constitute a factual – or alleged – breach of these Terms, including but not limiting to, using automated mechanisms to make complete work tasks or attempting to falsify face verification entries, may become subject to immediate account suspension/termination, at our sole and final discretion, without notice and without responsibility.
You acknowledge and agree that we may report any activity that we believe may violate any law to law enforcement, regulators, or other relevant third parties, and that any violation of the aforementioned provisions may result in the immediate termination of your access to Humanatic or our Services.
Humanatic does not knowingly provide its Services to persons: (i) under legal age; (ii) that have had their account previously disabled for violations of our Terms or Policy; (iii) that are otherwise prohibited from receiving our products, Services, or software under applicable laws or sanctions.
We reserve the right to request any and all applicable proof of identification and consent proof from our users, at any moment, without prior notice, and at our sole and final discretion. Upon the failure to provide such proof of age, we reserve the right to immediately freeze, block or terminate the account, with no liability.
Payments.
After you complete a task or deliver reviewed work data pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth by Humanatic, your work will be analyzed by us prior to review and approval (if any). Upon your timely delivery of work tasks, your account will be provisionally credited in the amount indicated by us for your compensation for approved tasks.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you acknowledge and agree that Humanatic has no obligation whatsoever to accept any work tasks performed or delivered by you, and that we may determine, at our sole and final discretion, that they may be deficient, incorrect, or fraudulent in any manner.
Therefore, your issuance of any provisional payment credit shall not constitute acceptance of such work tasks and, accordingly, Humanatic shall not be obliged to release any payment to your PayPal payment processing account. Additionally, tasks that are found to be inaccurate, deficient, or fraudulent may be penalized, decreasing the amount of your provisional balance.
We require that you accrue a minimum of $20 in your provisional balance before you may request a payment. We typically process payments every week, excluding extenuating circumstances. All payments must be requested by Wednesday 12:00 PM US (CST). Any payout requests made after 12:00 PM US (CST) on Wednesdays will not be processed until the following pay period. Only one active payout request is allowed per user and per pay period.
We rely on authorized third-party payment processors in order to credit all users through a linked PayPal account; henceforth you hereby authorize us to apply the pertinent fees through your indicated payment processing account. Humanatic shall not be held responsible for any PayPal fees and currency conversion fees by your bank, and you should review its terms and policies from time to time.
