Nothing in this Agreement is intended or should be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or employer-employee relationship between visuEats and the Knocker. The Knocker will take no position with respect to or any application for benefits, or in any proceeding directly or indirectly involving visuEats, that is inconsistent with the Knocker being an independent contractor of visuEats. The Knocker is not the agent of visuEats and is not authorized and must not represent to any third party that the Knocker is authorized, to make any commitment or otherwise act on behalf of visuEats.
7.2 Scope of Services
The Knocker agrees to provide delivery services on behalf of visuEats for the transportation and delivery of items based on the customers’ request, to a designated location or address within the Knocker’s preselected zone. The items are to be delivered in the stipulated time given to the customer, in safe and sanitary transportation.
Knockers are to be well groomed. Your attire must be of a professional nature and in keeping with visuEats’ image.
Knockers also reserve the right to return the items if:
- There is violence in their path upon making a delivery or they deemed the are unsafe
- They visit the customer’s address and no one responds to collect the order within a reasonable time frame
7.3 Hours of Operation
The Knocker acknowledges and agrees that they are an independent contractor and not an employee of visuEats. The Knocker has full control over the choice of zone(s) and time to commence or stop receiving orders by logging out of visuKnock at any given time or pause their account. Knockers reserve the right to decline orders that are placed within their zone. Knockers are also expected to have either GPS turned on at all times, once they are active in visuKnock.
7.4 Subcontracting
The Knocker will not subcontract or otherwise delegate any of the Knocker’s obligations under this Agreement without visuEats express prior written consent on a case-by-case basis. Upon receipt of such consent, before allowing any subcontractor to begin performing services, the Knocker will enter into a binding written agreement with such subcontractor whereby the subcontractor agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and that protects visuEats rights and interests to at least the same degree as the terms of this Agreement. The Knocker will be responsible for the direction and coordination of the services of each subcontractor. visuEats will have no obligation to pay any subcontractor.
7.3 Compensation
visuEats agrees to pay the Knocker the delivery commissions as outlined in section 3.2 above.

7.4 Taxes
The Knocker shall be solely responsible for payment of all taxes, insurance, and other obligations as an independent contractor and agrees to do so in a timely manner.

The Knocker agrees to maintain adequate insurance coverage for the duration of this Agreement, including liability insurance for the operation of their vehicle and any other coverage required by law or as reasonably requested by visuEats.
7.7 Benefits and Contributions
The Knocker is not entitled to or eligible for any benefits that visuEats may make available to its employees, such as personal time off, sick leave, group insurance, profit-sharing, or retirement benefits. Because the Knocker is an independent contractor, visuEats will not withhold or make payments for NIS, NHT, any employment witholdings, make unemployment insurance or disability insurance contributions, or obtain workers’ compensation insurance on behalf of the Knocker. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Knocker is reclassified as an employee of visuEats, or any affiliate of visuEats, by the Tax Administration of Jamaica, the Jamaica Department of Labor, or any other federal or state or foreign agency as the result of any administrative or judicial proceeding, the Knocker agrees that the Knocker will not, as the result of such reclassification, be entitled to or eligible for, on either a prospective or a retrospective basis, any employee benefits under any plans or programs established or maintained by visuEats.
7.8 Compliance with Laws and Regulations
The Knocker shall comply with all applicable laws, regulation and ordinances governing the provision of delivery services, including but not limited to traffic law, safety regulation, and food handling guidelines. The Knocker will also comply with all applicable laws governing self-employed individuals, including laws requiring the payment of taxes, such as income and employment taxes, and NIS, NHT, disability, and other contributions.
7.9 Non-Disclosure and Confidentiality
The Knocker agrees to maintain the confidentiality of any proprietary information and trade secret disclosed by visuEats and shall not disclose such information to any third party without visuEats prior written consent.
7.10 Assignment of Intellectual Property
To the extent that Knocker jointly or solely conceives, develops or reduces to practice any new inventions, original works of authorship, developments, concepts, know-how, improvements or trade secrets, whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar laws or other intellectual property which would be deemed to be Confidential Information of visuEats (collectively, “Intellectual Property”) which clearly relates to the visuEats’s business or Sites and has been created or suggested by Knocker in the course of the performance of the Scope of Services, Knocker hereby acknowledges that it is “work made for hire” for the benefit of the visuEats and hereby assigns all rights, titles and interest to such Intellectual Property to the visuEats.
7.11 Termination
Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time with or without notice to the other party. Upon termination, the Knocker will no longer have access to visuKnock and must not act or carry out any business under the disguise of visuEats.
7.12 Governance Law
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of Jamaica. Any dispute arising under or relating to this Agreement shall be resolved exclusively in the court of Jamaica.
