Accession Agreement

The Accession Agreement is the agreement between a Company User and the Platform Operator. It consists of three documents: the Main Agreement, which is the same for all countries; the Country Addendum, which names the Platform Operator for the User’s country of registration and sets the governing law, dispute resolution, language and method of signing; and the Statement of Accession, which the Company User signs.

The Country Addendum applicable to a Company User is the one adopted for its country of registration. Where no separate addendum has been adopted for a country, the International addendum applies, so accession is available from any country.

Accession takes place by signing a Statement of Accession. The Statement records the edition, hash and link of both the Main Agreement and the Country Addendum, so the documents in force on the date of accession remain available after a later edition is published.

Editions of the Main Agreement

Previous editions remain available at their permanent links: a Company User that acceded under an earlier edition is bound by that edition until it signs a new Statement of Accession (clause 14.8).

Statement of Accession

The Statement is generated by the Platform at the moment of signing. Its form is set out in Appendix 1 to the Main Agreement; templates are available for reference: English, Ukrainian, English and Arabic.

The details of the Platform Operators by country are on the Platform Operators page. Every document of the Agreement is a separate entry in the Register of Legal Documents.
