Expert terms

These terms are between you and O-mega Enterprise, Inc., the company that operates AITraining.jobs ("AITraining.jobs", "we", "us"). They apply when you join our expert bench to take on paid expert-data projects that we run for our clients: evaluating AI systems, writing rubrics, fine-tuning data, tasks and environments, red-teaming and benchmark questions in your field.

Joining the bench does not oblige you to take any project, and it does not oblige us to offer you one. Each project comes with its own written project terms: the work, the pay, the hours we expect, the window in which the work is due, the pay schedule and anything specific to that client. You see them before you accept, and you accept each project separately. These terms and the project terms together are the whole agreement for that project; where they differ, the project terms apply to that project.

Our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, linked at the foot of every page, also apply to your use of the site.

You take on projects as an independent contractor, not as our employee. That means:

• You decide whether to accept a project, and you can decline any project without giving a reason.
• You choose your own hours inside the project's delivery window. We do not set shifts.
• You decide how to do the work, within the written quality standard the project asks for.
• You can work for anyone else, including other companies in this field, unless a project's terms state a specific restriction for its duration, which you see before you accept.
• You provide your own equipment and internet connection, and you are responsible for your own taxes. Where the law requires it (for example a Form 1099-NEC in the United States), we send you a tax form for what we paid you.

Where the law of your state requires it (for example in California, Massachusetts, New Jersey or Illinois), a project may instead engage you as an employee through a payroll provider; its project terms say which, before you accept.

Nothing in these terms makes you our employee, partner or agent unless a project's terms engage you as an employee, and you may not commit us to anything.

You confirm that you are allowed to do paid work where you live and work.

• Written before you accept. A project's pay, by the hour or by the task, is written in its project terms before you accept, and it is never lowered during the project.
• Every hour the project asks of you is paid. Onboarding, training, calibration and any trial or assessment the project requires are paid at the project's rate.
• On a fixed schedule. Pay goes out on the schedule written in the project terms, to the payout method you set up with us. To be paid you give us the tax information the law requires (for example a W-9 in the United States, or a W-8BEN outside it).
• For work you report in good faith. You report the hours or tasks you worked honestly; we pay for accepted work, and work that is returned is explained (section 4).

• Every project has a written standard for what counts as accepted work, and you see it before you start.
• A reviewer may check your work. Work judged not accepted is explained to you in writing.
• You can answer any review and ask for it to be looked at again by a different reviewer.
• We never take screenshots of your screen, record your screen or track your activity. We judge the work, not how you spend your time.
• If you cannot finish a project you accepted, tell us as soon as you can; we pay for the accepted work you delivered up to then.

Projects involve our clients' confidential information: their AI systems, instructions, data and results. You agree to:

• use it only to do the project's work, and keep it confidential during and after the project;
• not share it, publish it or discuss it with anyone outside the project, including on social media, unless the client has made it public;
• not copy it outside the tools the project uses, and delete what you hold when the project ends;
• not use AI tools to produce the work unless the project's terms allow it.

You also keep confidential which clients we work for, unless a client has said so publicly.

Nothing here stops you from reporting a possible violation of law to a government agency or from giving testimony. Under the US Defend Trade Secrets Act (18 U.S.C. 1833(b)), you are not liable under any trade secret law for disclosing a trade secret in confidence to a government official or a lawyer solely to report or investigate a suspected violation of law, or in a filing made under seal in a lawsuit.

The work you create for a project (your answers, ratings, rubrics, tasks, written material and similar) belongs to the client of that project, or to us for that client. You assign to us, for our client, all rights in that work as you create it, and you agree to sign anything reasonably needed to confirm this. You keep your general knowledge, skills and experience, and anything you created before or outside the project.

• The work evaluates or creates material for AI systems. It is not a professional service (medical, legal, financial or any other advice) to any patient, client or member of the public, and you do not form such a relationship with anyone through it.
• You stay responsible for following the rules of your own profession and licence.
• You do not bring any information about real patients, clients or people into a project unless the project is set up for it in writing (for example under a business associate agreement for health information).
• What you tell us about your credentials and experience must be true. We may check it against public registries and with you.

Your details reach a client only after you accept that client's project, and only what the project needs: usually your name, your relevant credentials and experience, and how we assessed you. We never sell your data. Our Privacy Policy explains the rest, including how to ask us to delete your information.

You can pause or leave the bench at any time from your workspace. Leaving does not end a project you already accepted unless you tell us you cannot finish it (section 4).

If we change these terms, the new version gets a new date, and you are asked to accept it before you take on your next project.
