6. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

6.1 Overview. This Contract imposes special restrictions on how the Client and the Coach must handle confidential information. These obligations are explained in this section.

6.2 The Client's Confidential Information. While working for the Client, the Coach may come across, or be given, Client information that is confidential. This is information like customer lists, business strategies, research & development notes, statistics about a website, and other information that is private. The Coach promises to treat this information as if it is the Coach's own confidential information. The Coach may use this information to do its job under this Contract, but not for anything else. For example, if the Client lets the Coach use a customer list to send out a newsletter, the Coach cannot use those email addresses for any other purpose. The one exception to this is if the Client gives the Coach written permission to use the information for another purpose, the Coach may use the information for that purpose, as well. When this Contract ends, the Coach must give back or destroy all confidential information, and confirm that it has done so. The Coach promises that it will not share confidential information with a third party, unless the Client gives the Coach written permission first. The Coach must continue to follow these obligations, even after the Contract ends. The Coach's responsibilities only stop if the Coach can show any of the following: (i) that the information was already public when the Coach came across it; (ii) the information became public after the Coach came across it, but not because of anything the Coach did or didn't do; (iii) the Coach already knew the information when the Coach came across it and the Coach didn't have any obligation to keep it secret; (iv) a third party provided the Coach with the information without requiring that the Coach keep it a secret; or (v) the Coach created the information on its own, without using anything belonging to the Client.

6.3 Third-Party Confidential Information. It's possible the Client and the Coach each have access to confidential information that belongs to third parties. The Client and the Coach each promise that it will not share with the other party confidential information that belongs to third parties, unless it is allowed to do so. If the Client or the Coach is allowed to share confidential information with the other party and does so, the sharing party promises to tell the other party in writing of any special restrictions regarding that information.

7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

Neither party is liable for breach-of-contract damages that the breaching party could not reasonably have foreseen when it entered this Contract.

8. INDEMNITY.

8.1 Overview. This section transfers certain risks between the parties if a third party sues or goes after the Client or the Coach or both. For example, if the Client gets sued for something that the Coach did, then the Coach may promise to come to the Client's defense or to reimburse the Client for any losses.

8.2 Client Indemnity. In this Contract, the Coach agrees to indemnify the Client (and its affiliates and their directors, officers, employees, and agents) from and against all liabilities, losses, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) related to a third-party claim or proceeding arising out of: (i) the work the Coach has done under this Contract; (ii) a breach by the Coach of its obligations under this Contract; or (iii) a breach by the Coach of the promises it is making in Section 3 (Representations).

9. GENERAL.

9.1 Assignment​. This Contract applies only to the Client and the Coach. Neither the Client nor the Coach can assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Contract to a third-party (other than by will or intestate), without first receiving the other's written permission.

9.2 Arbitration. As the exclusive means of initiating adversarial proceedings to resolve any dispute arising under this Contract, a party may demand that the dispute be resolved by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its commercial arbitration rules.

9.3 Modification; Waiver. To change anything in this Contract, the Client and the Coach must agree to that change in writing and sign a document showing their contract. Neither party can waive its rights under this Contract or release the other party from its obligations under this Contract, unless the waiving party acknowledges it is doing so in writing and signs a document that says so.

9.4. Noticies.

(a) Over the course of this Contract, one party may need to send a notice to the other party. For the notice to be valid, it must be in writing and delivered in one of the following ways: personal delivery, email, or certified or registered mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested). The notice must be delivered to the party's address listed at the end of this Contract or to another address that the party has provided in writing as an appropriate address to receive notice.

(b) The timing of when a notice is received can be very important. To avoid confusion, a valid notice is considered received as follows: (i) if delivered personally, it is considered received immediately; (ii) if delivered by email, it is considered received upon acknowledgement of receipt; (iii) if delivered by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested), it is considered received upon receipt as indicated by the date on the signed receipt. If a party refuses to accept notice or if notice cannot be delivered because of a change in address for which no notice was given, then it is considered received when the notice is rejected or unable to be delivered. If the notice is received after 5:00pm on a business day at the location specified in the address for that party, or on a day that is not a business day, then the notice is considered received at 9:00am on the next business day.

9.5 Severability. This section deals with what happens if a portion of the Contract is found to be unenforceable. If that's the case, the unenforceable portion will be changed to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, unless that change is not permitted by law, in which case the portion will be disregarded. If any portion of the Contract is changed or disregarded because it is unenforceable, the rest of the Contract is still enforceable.

9.6 Signatures. The Client and the Coach must sign this document using Bonsai's e-signing system. These electronic signatures count as originals for all purposes.

9.7 Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this document shall be governed by the laws of the United States of America.

9.8 Entire Contract. This Contract represents the parties' final and complete understanding of this job and the subject matter discussed in this Contract. This Contract supersedes all other contracts (both written and oral) between the parties.

The consultant’s office can be a busy place. However, there are times when a bit of laziness can creep in, especially if the freelancer has a team working under him. The freelancer will not always be in the office to ensure that everybody puts in a proper shift. The business still needs to run smoothly even when you’re not in the office. You can invest in the Mac time-tracker as a way of solving what could potentially develop into a massive problem for your business.

Below are different ways the Mac time-tracker can help you solve unique freelancing problems.

1. Capture off-days with the Mac time tracker

Freelancers can fail to show up at the office for various reasons. The main one is sickness. The problem gets worse when a consultant works all alone in the business and has no help from anyone else. Most freelancers can’t afford to take sick days. The fact that sick days mean losing money doesn’t just appeal to these hard workers. The time-tracker can capture information regarding the days you never showed up for whatever reason.

This piece of information helps you to prepare for a low-income month where applicable.

2. Enhance work-life balance with the Mac time tracker

The time-tracker is a powerful tool for enhancing the perfect work-life balance too. The freelance economy needs consultants who strike a good work-life balance. Their overall health and the success of their business depends on it. The need for striking this balance increases the more the freelancer works from home. The temptation to work continuously while ignoring the family or other aspects of your life can be too much. Use the tracker to discipline yourself.

3. Prepare for the lean period with the Mac time tracker

Mac time-tracker keeps information that you could always go back to check or study. This way, you would realize when the lean period strikes. The lean periods without work represent one of the challenges you have to be ready to deal with and overcome in freelancing circles. The most notorious period for this is towards the end of the year when the holidays draw nearer. The time-tracker can help you to plan adequately for that.

4. Push your value up with the Mac time tracker

Freelancers should be the biggest believers in themselves! Clients may be unwilling to consider you one of the best. After all, most of them probably want to pay you low rates despite expecting the heaven from you. Be ready to look at the Mac time-tracker and learning or internalizing all the lessons it throws up at you. One of the most important lessons you will capture is that your time and skills are valuable. Charge the rates that make this point clear!

5. Calculate un-billed hours with the Mac time tracker

Now that you know that your time is precious, you should never struggle with the problem of failing to bill all your hours correctly. That should only happen when you don’t have a tool as powerful and effective as the time-tracker by your side. Use it to calculate all the hours accurately. Make sure that you rely on the information it captured to bill your clients properly. This way, your business benefits as more money comes in.

6. Overcome financial stress with the Mac time tracker

You may not realize the crucial role the Mac time-tracker can play in helping you to overcome financial stress. The leans times mentioned above could lead to a period of massive stress for you. Freelancers rarely have work available to them round the clock every day of the year. For this reason, you should rely on the time-tracker to put you in a good place to prepare for that. How? By helping you identify the busiest and most financially rewarding periods of the year.

Are you running a business? You will find the Mack time tracker useful too

Today, workers can get distracted too easily thus interfering with their ability to do the work you employed them for. The distractions can affect performance and productivity. The quality of work also drops depending on the distractions the workers face in the office. A good manager has to provide solutions to something that could be a huge problem. The solutions have to come early too. A Mac time tracker is one of the best solutions in this regard.

1. The Mac time tracker is a lifesaver

The time tracker is a powerful tool capable of saving your life. It protects your reputation too. It’s one of the systems worth introducing in the office to help everybody to perform at optimal levels. The software serves several purposes. As previously stated, it provides a clear picture of how each worker spends time in the office. Do the workers spend most of the time on productive or non-productive activities? The tracker will give you a better picture.

2. The Mac time tracker is the best reminder

However, the tracker also acts as a reminder. It reminds employees that they are behind schedule in performing the tasks you assigned each one of them. This way, the workers would then stop what they are doing and focus on the reason for being in the office in the first place as part of your team. Apart from that, the tracker also serves as a disciplinary assistant. It also motivates employees who feel ill-equipped or uninspired to work on the projects.

3. The Mac time tracker contains useful features

The Mac time trackers have many useful features as well. For example, you can use the software to help you with financial management tasks. The trackers – at least some of them – are capable of generating invoices for all the projects you completed successfully and handed over to the clients. Business owners who invest in these trackers can rest safe in the knowledge that the programs are giving them value for money.

4. The Mac time tracker is perfect for remote workforce

A time tracker is also a great tool to spend money on if you generally hire remote workers. It is ideal for employers who are not in the same locations as their workers. As you probably know, it’s harder to manage a team that is far away from you. In such cases, you would require different systems. In fact, the Mac time tracker is one of the best tools – coupled with other strategies – you must employ to manage your team remotely.

5. The Mac time tracker detects idle time easily

The time tracker detects any idle time too. It doesn’t create too much of a fuss but operates stealthily. It creates a new session automatically when the employee using it starts the timer. It’s also ideal for encouraging your workers to organize their work and records better. They can use it to arrange clients’ information based on hourly rates, names, and addresses. This way, you get an easier time pulling off records for any worker or client.

6. The Mac time tracker is compatible with Mac devices

The best Mac time tracker runs on all Mac-based devices. For this reason, you can access it on the Mac PC, laptop, web browser, and phone. What is more, you can synchronize it with your Apple Watch thus offering you the chance to monitor your team even when you’re out exercising. The tracker is also easier to integrate with any other Mac-related app that you use for running the company.

Use the Mac time tracker for tracking your workers’ time sheets. Use it to set timers as well as time limits for each task you assign an entire team or individual members. With this powerful and highly effective tool, you can log in and click the timer easily. The tracker has a clean and streamlined design that gives you all kinds of pleasures while using it. Therefore, install the tracker today and see your team’s performances and productivity surpass your expectation.
