Any agreement, contract, or working relationship entered into between an Advisor and a Client is solely between those parties.

Section 06

Moonlighting & Employment Conflicts

⚠ Important — Please read carefully This section governs your obligations if you are currently employed or engaged elsewhere while using CXOwork to seek or accept additional fractional or advisory engagements.

CXOwork provides a marketplace for fractional and advisory engagements. Many Advisors on the Platform maintain existing employment or other professional commitments concurrently with their engagement through CXOwork ("Moonlighting"). By accepting any engagement through the Platform, you expressly acknowledge and agree to the following:

  1. Sole Responsibility for Compliance. It is your sole and exclusive responsibility to review, understand, and comply with any non-compete, non-solicitation, confidentiality, moonlighting, outside-activity, conflict-of-interest, or intellectual property assignment provisions contained in any employment agreement, consulting agreement, or other contract to which you are a party ("Existing Agreements"). CXOwork has no knowledge of and assumes no responsibility for the terms of your Existing Agreements.
  2. No Advice from CXOwork. CXOwork does not provide legal or employment advice. Nothing on the Platform constitutes advice regarding whether any engagement you undertake is permissible under your Existing Agreements or applicable law. You are strongly encouraged to seek independent legal counsel before accepting any engagement if you have existing employment or contractual obligations.
  3. Representations and Warranties. By accepting any engagement through the Platform, you represent and warrant that: (a) you have reviewed all Existing Agreements; (b) your participation in the Platform and acceptance of any engagement does not violate any Existing Agreement or any applicable law; and (c) you will not use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets belonging to any prior or current employer or client in connection with any engagement on the Platform.
  4. CXOwork Not Liable for Employment Consequences. CXOwork shall not be liable, in any manner whatsoever, for any consequences you suffer as a result of Moonlighting, including but not limited to: termination of employment, disciplinary action, breach of contract claims, legal proceedings brought by any employer or counterparty, loss of income, reputational harm, or any other direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss or damage arising from your decision to engage in Moonlighting.
  5. Indemnification for Moonlighting Claims. You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless CXOwork and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and successors from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) any alleged or actual breach of your Existing Agreements attributable to your use of the Platform; (b) any claim by your current or former employer, client, or other third party related to your Moonlighting activities; or (c) any misrepresentation you made regarding the permissibility of your engagement on the Platform.
Section 07

Fees & Payments

CXOwork charges a platform fee of 15% on all payments made by Clients to Advisors through the Platform ("Platform Fee"). The Platform Fee is deducted automatically at the time of payment processing. By using the Platform, you authorise CXOwork to collect the Platform Fee as described.

All fees are non-refundable except as expressly provided in these Terms or as required by applicable law. CXOwork reserves the right to modify its fee structure at any time upon reasonable notice, which shall not be less than 30 days. Continued use of the Platform following notice of a fee change constitutes acceptance of the revised fees.

You are solely responsible for all taxes, levies, duties, and other governmental charges arising from income earned through the Platform. CXOwork does not withhold taxes on behalf of Advisors unless required to do so by applicable law.
