Sales Representatives work as independent contractors; in order to finish a project and submit a payment request, they must have their own legal entity or any other form that is recognized in their nation of residence. Sales People will supply the legal information that will be used for accounting purposes. GSH disclaims any obligation in the event that the relevant details are incorrect.

- Packages
5.1 Basics
Your package will be generated once payment has been received, and you can then build projects based on the package level.
Projects should be developed with all the information required so that Sellers may comprehend the Service or Product that has to be offered.
The details of a Package will be available online and accessible to the whole GSH community after it is developed.
Unless the Company designates a package as private, sellers are free to act on any package, regardless of whether they exhibit interest in it. A privat package is one in which the company requests confirmation of interest from the seller community and submits restricted information to the public. In this scenario, prospective sellers should indicate their interest. Following a review of their profile, companies will consent to work together and provide the relevant seller with complete access in confidence.
In order to receive direct support and complete the sale, Sellers are required to make direct contact with Company representatives during the sales service delivery for the relevant Package.
Once a sales process was completed, Sellers must ask for commission Payment via the platform. The request will be forwarded to a company representative, and the selling procedure will be deemed complete after confirmation and payment have been received. Every Seller may continue selling as long as the Package is open.
There is no way for Sellers to misuse the Ask Payment button. When a sales procedure is not completed, using the “Ask Payment” button could lead to the payment being canceled after review, have an impact on the seller’s rating, and issue a warning to the seller.
Once a project is declared delivered, the company accepts it.
It may be necessary for Companies and Sellers to meet in person for certain projects that offer local services before the Seller may complete the service. Users should be aware that GSH cannot guarantee the actions, conduct, appropriateness, demeanor, or abilities of Companies or Sellers in such circumstances. Companies and Sellers acknowledge that GSH bears no obligation or liability with regard to any local services rendered by Sellers, and that all risk arising from their meeting and/or their use or performance of local services stays exclusively with them. It is recommended that companies carry appropriate insurance policies to protect themselves from responsibility as the owner of the premises in the event that the service is rendered on company property. Orders executed outside of the marketplace are still subject to GSH’s Terms of Services, which include the following prohibitions on Unlawful Use, Inappropriate Behavior & Language, and Targeted Abuse.
It is the users’ responsibility to check all transferred files for malware and viruses. GSH disclaims all liability for any harm that may result from using the site, downloading files, or using content.
