Our Services

DJN is a marketplace platform that connects Clients with Freelancers. We provide the technology and infrastructure that enables these connections. DJN is not a party to the contract between Client and Freelancer and does not employ Freelancers.

DJN acts as an intermediary marketplace only. We facilitate connections, hold escrow funds, and provide dispute resolution services — but we do not guarantee the quality, accuracy, or timeliness of any deliverable.

Dispute Resolution

DJN provides a structured dispute resolution process to fairly resolve conflicts between Clients and Freelancers. Both parties agree to follow this process before pursuing any external legal action.

🔒 Binding Agreement
By using DJN, both Clients and Freelancers agree to submit disputes to DJN's internal resolution process first, and to be bound by DJN's final determination in cases where mediation does not produce an agreement.
1
Direct Communication
Both parties attempt to resolve the issue through DJN's messaging system within 3 days.
2
Raise a Dispute
Either party may open a formal dispute via the platform. Escrowed funds are frozen.
3
DJN Review
Our team reviews submitted evidence from both parties within 5 business days.
4
Resolution
DJN issues a final decision on fund distribution. Both parties are notified by email.

Evidence accepted during review:

  • Screenshots of project briefs, messages, and agreed scope
  • File submission timestamps and delivery records
  • Milestone descriptions and acceptance criteria
  • Any written agreements made within the DJN platform
⚠ Escalation
If either party is unsatisfied with DJN's resolution, disputes may be escalated to binding arbitration under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 (India). The seat of arbitration shall be Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The language of arbitration shall be English.
✅ Good Faith Obligation
Both parties must participate in the dispute process in good faith, provide truthful evidence, and comply with DJN's final decision. Deliberate misrepresentation of facts during a dispute will result in immediate account suspension.
🚫 Prohibited
Initiating chargebacks, reversing payments through your bank, or taking legal action without first completing DJN's internal dispute process constitutes a breach of these Terms and may result in account termination and recovery of costs.

To raise a dispute, email: ally@djn.3d-labs.com with subject line "DISPUTE — [Project ID]"
