Introduction

Section 15 of the agreement lists specific situations where Starkworth isn't liable, and sets a cap on total liability for everything else. Understanding this section sets realistic expectations for what recourse looks like if something goes wrong.

Key Points

  • Not liable for reduced earnings due to Platform technical changes outside Starkworth's control.
  • Not liable for account suspension or termination by the Platform due to Platform policy violations.
  • Not liable for periods of low or no task availability on the Platform.
  • Not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential losses arising from account management.
  • Total aggregate liability (outside confidentiality/data-protection obligations) is capped at the Account Owner Share paid or payable in the three months before the claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes — the cap doesn't apply to a Party's confidentiality or data-protection obligations, which are treated separately.

Starkworth isn't liable for that — it's explicitly listed as a Platform-caused issue outside Starkworth's control.

It's framed as each Party's total aggregate liability, so it applies mutually under the agreement.
