This Client Services Agreement (Agreement) sets forth the terms and conditions whereby client (Client) agrees to obtain certain services (as described at the Neuroplay Services Page https://www.nivaa.sg/) (Therapy Services) from a fully-licensed (to the extent required by applicable law) and qualified therapist (Therapist) that may, from time to time, be referred via the web-based platform or mobile application of Neuroplay Systems Pte. Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of Singapore with a registered office at 83 Science Park Drive, #02-03/04, The Curie, NUS Enterprise @ Singapore Science Park Singapore 118258 (Neuroplay). If you are a Client, by submitting a Booking Request (as defined below), you agree to this Agreement with the applicable Therapist, and if you are a Therapist, you agree to this Agreement upon acceptance of a Booking Request. Your contact information, including mailing address, phone number and email address is located on your account profile page and is incorporated herein by reference. You are obligated to maintain this information and ensure it is current. If you’re agreeing to this Agreement on behalf of an organization or entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to agree to this Agreement on that organization or entity’s behalf and bind them to this Agreement (in which case, the references to “you” and “your” in this Agreement, except for in this sentence, refer to that organization or entity). This Agreement sets out the obligations of Client and Therapist in connection with the provision of Booked Services (as defined below).
1. BACKGROUND.
1.1 What Neuroplay Does.
Neuroplay is the creator of a technology platform that creates a marketplace to connect Clients with Therapists to provide Therapy Services. Neuroplay provides a web-based and mobile application-based portal (NIVAA) through which Clients may connect with a network of Therapists to arrange a variety of Therapy Services on behalf of themselves or others (Care Recipient). If you are a Client acting on behalf of a Care Recipient, you agree that you are accepting this Agreement on behalf of such Care Recipient and that you have the authority to bind such Care Recipient to this Agreement. Therapist provides Therapy Services to Care Recipients strictly as an independent contractor, and not as an employee, worker, agent, joint venturer, partner or franchisee of Neuroplay or any Client for any purpose, unless Therapist identifies him or herself as an employee of Neuroplay. Neuroplay’s role is limited to offering the technology platform as a source of referrals for Clients and Therapists and facilitating payments from Clients to Therapists.
1.2 How The NIVAA Platform Works.
Before receiving access to the NIVAA Platform, you must also review and agree to the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy of the NIVAA Platform, which you acknowledge that you have reviewed and accepted. From time to time, in their sole and complete discretion, Clients may submit a request to NIVAA for Therapy Services, setting forth the nature of the Therapy Services required (Booking Request). NIVAA will review the Booking Request and decide in its sole discretion whether NIVAA is able to assist with the Booking Request. If NIVAA is able to assist with the Booking Request, NIVAA will make such Booking Request available on the NIVAA platform to the Therapists. To the extent feasible, NIVAA will provide details relating to the Booking Request, including requested Therapy Services, location and booking time. Some of the details necessary for Therapist to provide the Therapy Services may also be provided by Clients. Clients are solely responsible for the accuracy of such details, and NIVAA is not responsible for verifying any such details.
Therapists have the opportunity, in their discretion, to accept a Booking Request from a Client. Once the Therapist accepts the Booking Request from the Client, the NIVAA Platform will confirm the Booking Request has been booked by the Client (Booked Service) and notify Therapist and Client, at which point, this contract is formed directly between Client and Therapist. For the avoidance of doubt, Booked Services are Care Services for which a Therapist has agreed to deliver service to the Client. The parties understand and agree that NIVAA acts as a disclosed agent for the purposes of entering into this contract. You agree that your name, phone number, rating, and other profile information may be provided or made available after a Therapy Service is booked.
1.3 Booking Requests.
When submitting a Booking Request, Client agrees to provide NIVAA with the following information:
- The specific therapy service requested;
- The location where the Therapy Serves are to be carried out (Service Location);
- The times and dates during which the Care Services are to be undertaken by Therapist (Scheduled Hours), including the first time at and date on which the Care Services are to be carried out (Service Start Time) and the last time at and date on which the Care Services are to be completed (Service End Time); and
- Any other information reasonably requested by NIVAA.
Client agrees to notify NIVAA immediately of any changes to the above information. Failure to notify or provide such information to NIVAA shall entitle NIVAA to deactivate or deprioritize a Booking Request.
2. THE SERVICES.
2.1 Provision of Services.
By submitting a Booking Request, Client is deemed to have agreed to receive the Booked Service at the Service Location and Scheduled Hours as specified in the Booking Request. In order to submit or accept (as applicable) a Booking Request, Client and Therapist must possess a smartphone, tablet, desktop or laptop computer equipped with access to the NIVAA Platform (Compatible Device), subscribe to an appropriate data or broadband internet plan, and have access to NIVAA’s web or mobile application (Application) onto the Compatible Device. All Booking Requests must be submitted and accepted through the Application, through NIVAA’s hotline, or via any other authorized process made available by NIVAA.
Therapist is contractually obligated to complete the Booked Service at the Service Location and Scheduled Hours. Client is responsible for providing access to the Service Location to Therapist and any of its sub-contractors, agents, or employees (Sub-Contractors) in order for Therapist to perform the Booked Service. Client agrees to provide a safe, suitable environment for Therapist to perform the Booked Service. Client shall be responsible for doing and providing all things reasonably necessary for Therapist to perform the Booked Service. To the extent applicable, Client shall obtain, operate, and maintain in good working order all equipment and ancillary services needed for Therapist to provide the Booked Services.
NIVAA shall not control or have any right to control the manner or means by which Therapist performs the Care Services, and NIVAA has no obligation (but has the right) to inspect Therapist’s work for quality purposes.
2.2 Client Reviews.
Client may rate and review a Therapist at the end of every Booked Service. If Therapist fails to complete a Booked Service to Client’s reasonable satisfaction, or if there is any damage caused to Client by Therapist, Client shall notify NIVAA within seven (7) business days following the completion of the Booked Service. Upon such notification, NIVAA may request that Therapist arrange, via NIVAA, at a date and time mutually agreed with Client, to complete the Booked Services or rectify the Booked Services, and no additional payment will be due by Client until the issue has been resolved. NIVAA may in its sole discretion, but has no obligation to, make compensatory payments or fee waivers to Client for any damage alleged to have been caused to Client by Therapist
2.3 Cancellations; Amendments.
Client may cancel or amend a Booked Service (Modification) up to twenty-four (24) hours before the Service Start Time free of charge. For the avoidance of doubt, changes to the Scheduled Hours and Service Location are considered Modifications. There is no guarantee that a Modification will be accommodated. If Client requests a Modification within the twenty-four (24) hour period before the Service Start Time, Client will be charged a fee for the Modification. Client understands and agrees that a Modification may not be able to be accommodated on such short-notice. Our cancellation and change policy is available here https://www.nivaa.sg/terms-of-use/.
Repeated Modifications requested on short-notice by Client may result in termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9 or deactivation or de-prioritization of Client’s Booking Requests and/or the NIVAA Platform.
Up to twenty-four (24) hours before the Service Start Time, NIVAA may notify Client of a modification to a Booked Service requested by Care Pro. Client shall notify NIVAA within four (4) hours following receipt of such notice if Client rejects any such modification, and Client may cancel such Booked Service. Failure to notify NIVAA within the foregoing time period shall be deemed acceptance of the modification.
2.4 Use of Voice, Image and Ratings.
Client and Therapist may be required to submit an image for use by the NIVAA Platform to facilitate identifying Therapist with Clients. Each party represents and warrants that it owns (or has sufficient licenses to) the copyright of any image or ratings that it provides.
2.5 Call and SMS Data.
NIVAA may mask phone numbers when Care Pro calls or exchanges text (SMS) or non-SMS, internet-based text messages with Client through the Mobile or Web Application. The parties consent to the masking process described above and to NIVAA’s sending text (SMS) or non-SMS, internet-based text messages directly as described in the Terms of Use. The parties understand and agree that each party may have access to the other party’s phone number outside of the Mobile or Web Application.
3. SERVICE FEES.
NIVAA will invoice Client on behalf and in the name of Therapist for fees payable by Client for the Booked Services (Booked Services Fees) after completion of the Booked Services or at some other frequency as determined by NIVAA in its discretion. All amounts are due and payable to NIVAA as specified in the applicable invoice. All payments shall be made in full in SGD. Any amount not paid when due shall bear a late payment charge at the rate of 1.5% per month or, if less, the maximum amount permitted by law. All payments to NIVAA are exclusive of taxes, goods and services taxes, duties, tariffs, withholdings, levies and similar assessments and Client agrees to bear and be responsible for the payment of all such charges. All payments due shall be made to the third party escrow and payment agent engaged by NIVAA to collect the Booked Service Fees and process the relevant payments (Payment Agent). Payment Agent will collect the Booked Service Fee from Client.
Booked Service Fees may change at any time.
4. CONFIDENTIALITY AND PRIVACY; DATA.
Each party will receive certain private and/or confidential information from and regarding the other party, and will also receive or have access to proprietary or confidential information relating to Neuroplay, the NIVAA Platform, and Neuroplay’s Services. Except upon order of government authority (e.g., Court, administrative agency) having jurisdiction, or upon written consent by the disclosing party, the receiving party agrees that he or she shall not use, publish, disseminate or disclose, for his or her own benefit or the benefit of any third party, any confidential information regarding the other party, including addresses, telephone numbers and/or operational details. Each party will not engage in any activity which violates the privacy of the other party, including, but not limited to, taking unauthorized photographs or making unauthorized audio or video recordings of the other party or his or her personal belongings, or publishing, disseminating or disclosing any such photographs or recordings.

1. Background
1.1 What We Do
NeuroPlay is the creator of a technology platform, NIVAA, that creates a marketplace to connect potential clients, which may be individuals or institutions (“Clients”) with fully-licensed (to the extent required by applicable law) and qualified professionals, such as the Service Provider, to provide Therapy Services to the Clients. NeuroPlay provides a web-based and mobile application-based portal (“NIVAA”) through which Clients may connect with a network of Service Providers with whom they may arrange for the provision of a variety of Therapy Services by the Service Provider on behalf of the Clients or others (“Therapy Recipient”).
You understand and agree that you will provide the Therapy Services to the Therapy Recipients strictly as an independent contractor, and not as an employee, worker, agent, joint venturer, partner or franchisee of NeuroPlay or any Client for any purpose. For the avoidance of doubt, Neuroplay’s role is strictly limited to offering the NIVAA technology platform (the “NIVAA Platform”) as a source of referrals for the Clients and Service Providers, facilitating payments from the Clients to the Service Providers, and in providing specific digital tools for collecting data and communicating progress of the Therapy Recipients to the Clients. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Therapy Services will be performed in a designated location as may be requested by the Clients.
1.2 The NIVAA Platform and Terms of Use
By entering into this Agreement with NeuroPlay, you hereby agree to be listed on NIVAA’s database of Service Providers for the purpose of receiving Booking Requests (as defined below). Before you are granted access to the NIVAA Platform, you must also review and agree to the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy of the NIVAA Platform, which may be accessed at the following links: https://www.nivaa.sg/terms-of-use/ and https://www.nivaa.sg/terms-of-use/, and which are incorporated herein by reference and which you acknowledge that you have reviewed and accepted by entering into this Agreement. To the extent the Terms of Use are inconsistent with this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail in the event of such inconsistencies. From time to time and in their sole and complete discretion, the Clients may submit a request to NIVAA for the provision of Therapy Services, setting forth the nature of the Therapy Services required and any other information (“Booking Request”). Neuroplay shall review the Booking Requests and decide in its sole and absolute discretion whether Neuroplay is able to assist with the Booking Request. If Neuroplay is able to assist with the Booking Request, Neuroplay will make such Booking Request available to you. To the extent feasible, Neuroplay will provide sufficient details relating to the Booking Request, as may be decided by Neuroplay in its sole and absolute discretion, including, without limitation, requested Therapy Services, location, type of service needed, specialty and sub-specialty of service needed, and booking time. Some of the details necessary for Service Provider to provide the Therapy Services may also be provided by the Clients and/or Therapy Recipients. The Clients shall bear the sole responsibility and liability for the accuracy of such details, and Neuroplay shall not be responsible nor liable for the independent verification of any such details. Neuroplay does not guarantee any minimum number of Booking Requests to be available to Service Provider at any point during the term of this Agreement.
The Service Provider will have the opportunity to review Booking Requests on the NIVAA Platform and agree to the Client’s Booking Request as described herein. The Service Provider shall not have any obligation to accept Booking Requests. However once the Service Provider has accepted a Booking Request, the Service Provider will be subject to Neuroplay’s cancellation policy, which may be accessed at the following link: https://www.nivaa.sg/terms-of-use/. Multiple Service Providers may agree to a Client’s Booking Request. Once a Service Provider agrees to a Booking Request (“Booked Service”), Neuroplay will send the Service Provider’s profile and availability to the Client. The Client will then book a time slot in the Service Provider’s calendar and make payment. Once the Client makes the payment for its Booking Request, a contract is deemed to have been formed directly between the Client and the Service Provider for the Service Provider to complete the Booked Service. For the avoidance of doubt, Booked Services are Therapy Services that you have represented and warranted you are licensed and qualified to provide in your profile in the NIVAA platform and Neuroplay has approved your profile for the said services. You hereby appoint Neuroplay to be its disclosed agent for the purposes of entering into such a contract with Client. You agree that your name, phone number, client ratings, and other profile information may be provided or made available to a Client by or on behalf of Neuroplay.
