2. Subject and Status
2.1. This Agreement governs the terms of the service the Operator will provide on the Platform under an Agency.
2.2. The relationship between the Operator and the Agency (compensation, earnings, work arrangement) is an off-Platform internal relationship freely determined by those parties. tamkonum is not a party to this internal relationship and does not establish any employment, employer-employee, partnership, or agency relationship between the parties.
2.3. The Operator acknowledges that they provide services on behalf of the Agency and as a member of the Agency's team.
3. Joining the Team and the Single-Partner Principle

6. Confidentiality and Protection of Personal Data
This article is an essential element of this Agreement.
6.1. The Operator is personally and directly subject to the Confidentiality and Protection of Personal Data (Article 8) provisions of the Partner Network Participation Agreement.

7.3. During the restriction period in 7.2, the Operator may not continue the same service with the relevant Customers by moving it off the Platform. Breach of this prohibition off the Platform — except where the Operator joins a real estate team as a salaried/employed member — results in permanent removal from the Platform.
7.4. Upon departure, any earnings that have accrued or are maturing in respect of work the Operator performed under the Agency belong to the Agency; the Operator may not claim such earnings from tamkonum (Article 4).

8.3. In case of breach of this Agreement, the Company applies the graduated sanctions in Article 10 of the Partner Network Participation Agreement; steps may be skipped for serious breaches.
9. Term, Termination, and Miscellaneous
9.1. This Agreement enters into force when the Operator accepts the Agency's invitation and ends upon the Operator leaving the team or termination by the Company.
9.2. Termination or departure does not extinguish, beyond the completion of open Assignments, the obligations under Article 6 (Confidentiality), Article 7 (Non-Solicitation), and Article 8 (Liability).
9.3. This Agreement applies together with the Partner Network Participation Agreement, the Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy, and the KVKK Disclosure; in case of conflict, this Agreement specific to Team Membership prevails.
