Terms of Service

1. Description of Services

HireX provides an evidence-based hiring platform connecting Clients with highly vetted software engineers. Services include:

• AI Code Analysis: Scanning and evaluating public code repositories to generate objective Evidence Reports.
• Talent Matching: Connecting Clients with pre-vetted Developers based on technical stack, architectural complexity, and project requirements.
• Engagement Management: Facilitating Developer deployment to Client projects under a Time & Materials (T&M) model.

2. The HireX Engagement Model

2.1. Independent Contractor Status

Developers matched through HireX are independent contractors. No employer-employee, partnership, or agency relationship is created. You are solely responsible for classifying Developers under your local labor laws.

• If dissatisfied within 5 working days, you may terminate with immediate effect — you will not be billed for those days.
• If you continue beyond 5 days, the trial period becomes billable and is included in your first invoice.

2.3. Billing and Time & Materials (T&M)

HireX operates on a transparent month-to-month T&M basis. Invoices are generated bi-weekly or monthly as specified in your engagement contract. Failure to pay may result in immediate suspension and withdrawal of Developer(s).

2.4. Scaling and Termination

To terminate an active engagement after the trial, Clients must provide a standard two-week (14-day) written notice, during which standard billing applies.

3. Intellectual Property and Confidentiality

3.1. Client Ownership

100% of the IP, source code, documentation, and artifacts produced during billable hours belong solely to you (the Client) from line one.

3.2. NDA and IP Assignment

Every engagement is governed by a mutual NDA and IP Assignment agreement executed prior to the Developer's first commit. HireX claims no ownership over your code.

3.3. HireX Platform IP

The HireX platform — AI vetting algorithms, Vector Matching Engine, Evidence Reports format, website design, and underlying software — are the exclusive property of HireX. You may not copy, reverse-engineer, or distribute our technology.

4. Non-Circumvention

For 24 months following your last interaction with a Developer introduced by HireX, you will not directly or indirectly solicit, hire, or engage that Developer outside the HireX platform without prior written consent.

Breach results in a buyout fee equivalent to 30% of the Developer's annualized market salary, payable immediately to HireX.

5. User Obligations and Restrictions

When using our Services, you agree NOT to:

• Submit false, inaccurate, or misleading job requirements or company information.
• Scrape data, Evidence Reports, or Developer profiles for building a competing service.
• Attempt to bypass our AI vetting process or manipulate match scores.
• Use the Services for any illegal, discriminatory, or unauthorized purpose.

6. Disclaimers

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS-IS" AND "AS-AVAILABLE" BASIS. HIREX DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

While our AI engine and manual vetting processes are designed to identify top-tier engineering talent with 96%+ accuracy, HireX does not guarantee any specific Developer will meet subjective expectations.

7. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HIREX SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, DATA, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES.

HIREX'S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT.

8. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to conflict of law provisions.

Any dispute shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of state and federal courts located in Broward County, Florida.

9. Modifications to the Terms

We reserve the right to update these Terms by posting changes to our website. Your continued use of the Services following any changes constitutes acceptance of those changes.
