Process for Submitting Disputes.

All Users agree to attempt in good faith to resolve any disputes with another User directly with that User and without involving Company. In the event that Users are unable to resolve a dispute, either party can submit a formal dispute to Company by emailing disputes@opengrants.io. Any invoice-related disputes by a Client must be submitted within 5 business days of the invoice date. Failure to submit a timely dispute will be deemed acceptance of the invoice, and the Client’s designated payment method will be automatically charged, as described in the Client Terms.


Dispute Resolution

In the event Company receives a timely dispute as indicated above, all payments are suspended until the completion of the resolution process described below. Company’s Dispute Resolution Team will take reasonable steps to gather information from the Users involved and reach a resolution within 10 business days of receiving the dispute notice. You hereby agree and acknowledge that Company is authorized to take, and shall have no liability to you for taking, any action necessary to investigate and resolve disputes on your behalf and in any manner Company deems appropriate, in its sole and absolute discretion.

Exclusions

Please note that we will only resolve disputes related to the number of hours included in an invoice. We will not resolve any disputes related to the quality of work or Deliverables. All such disputes must be handled exclusively between the Client and the Grant Writer.
