Confidentiality

If you sign an Order Form with us, then this confidentiality section will apply to your relationship with us.

As a result of you and us signing an Order Form, each party is likely to disclose Confidential Information to the other that the disclosing party desires to maintain as confidential. Accordingly, the recipient must (1) protect the confidentiality of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information in the recipient’s possession, (2) not use any of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information except for the benefit of the disclosing party, and (3) not disclose any of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information to any third party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the recipient may disclose the disclosing party’s Confidential Information (a) to the recipient’s employees and contractors as necessary for normal business operations (provided each additional recipient agrees to protect the disclosing party’s Confidential Information in a written agreement containing confidentiality obligations substantially similar to the confidentiality obligations in this section), and (b) to the extent the recipient is compelled to do so by law if it provides reasonable prior notice to the disclosing party (unless otherwise ordered by a court with competent jurisdiction).

Confidential Information” means all the disclosing party’s oral and written information which a reasonable person would deem confidential (including third-party information held in confidence by the disclosing party) which is acquired by or disclosed to the recipient. “Confidential Information” does not include information the recipient can demonstrate (i) becomes known to the public through no fault of the recipient, (ii) was independently developed by the recipient without use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information, or (iii) was rightfully given to the recipient by another party. Hyre LLC and its Assistants agree to hold in strict confidence all non-public information disclosed by Client, including but not limited to business plans, customer data, financial information, trade secrets, and materials (“Confidential Information”). We shall use Confidential Information solely for the purpose of delivering services to Client and shall not disclose such information to any third party without Client’s prior written consent, except to Assistants and subcontractors who have a need to know such information and are bound by written confidentiality obligations at least as protective as these Terms. We shall maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards consistent with industry standards and notify you without undue delay upon any actual or suspected unauthorized access or disclosure. Upon written demand from the disclosing party, the recipient must promptly return (or if requested by the disclosing party destroy) all the disclosing party’s Confidential Information in the recipient’s possession (in all forms including all copies) and certify deletion. This section will not limit a party’s rights under applicable trade secret laws. Each party provides its Confidential Information under your Order Form on an “as is” basis without any warranties, whether express or implied, and without any verification as to its accuracy, suitability, or completeness. Each party’s obligations in this section will apply during the duration of your Order Form and for ten years thereafter.

Termination

Use of Platform

You may stop using the free and open portions of the Services at any time. Except as provided in an Order Form or elsewhere in these Terms, we may terminate your right to use the free and open portions of the Services at any time, for any reason. In all cases of termination, you will remain liable for any damage you caused or may later cause to us or any part of the Services. Upon termination, we may delete all your data and information in our systems.

Unless otherwise provided in your Order Form, either party (you or us) may terminate your Order Form at any time for any reason. Upon termination, you must pay us for Services rendered up to the effective termination date and cease using our Services. We will refund any prepaid, unused fees. Upon termination, we may delete all your data and information in our systems.

Survival of Terms

The following provisions of these Terms will survive any termination of your use of the Services or Order Form: (a) all provisions restricting your right to use the Services and all provisions limiting our obligations to you, (b) all provisions related to your obligation to pay us sums you owe us, (c) all provisions related to our intellectual property rights and all provisions related to your licenses of (and representations regarding) Your Content, (d) all provisions related to your indemnification obligations and all provisions related to arbitration, governing law, jurisdiction, and waiver of jury trials, (e) all provisions related to exclusions, disclaimers, and limitations of liability (except as limited by applicable law), (f) all provisions related to termination of your account and license to use the Services, and (g) all miscellaneous provisions.

Indemnification

You must indemnify us and our parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates, and the respective owners, directors, officers, managers, employees, contractors, and other representatives, of us and our parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates (the “Protected Parties”) against all reasonable expenses and liabilities including attorneys’ fees, costs, judgments, and damages of every kind (the “Losses”) arising out of any suit, claim, investigation, or proceeding, which is threatened or brought against a Protected Party, related to your (a) use of the Services, (b) breach of these Terms or any other policies referenced in these Terms, (c) submission of content that violates third party rights or applicable laws, or (d) violation of applicable law. We may, at your expense, assume the exclusive control and defense of any such matter. You must cooperate, at your expense, with our control and defense of any such matter. You must not settle any such matter without our prior written consent.

We shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless you, your affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, and employees from and against any third-party claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of:
(a) employment-related claims, demands, or actions brought by Assistants or governmental authorities relating to wages, taxes, or employment status of Assistants;
(b) intellectual property disputes related to Work Product created by Assistants.

Arbitration

If a dispute arises between you and us related to the Services, your use of the Services, or these Terms or any policies referenced in these Terms, the parties will first attempt in good faith to resolve through informal discussions. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute informally within thirty (30) days, then the dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration rather than in court (arbitration does not involve a judge or jury and court review of arbitration awards is limited). To initiate an arbitration, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent on file with the Kansas Secretary of State. The arbitration proceedings will be held in Johnson County, Kansas, USA, or virtually if both you and we agree to virtual arbitration. 

If this agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to your claim, then both you and we agree that any judicial proceedings will be brought in accordance with the legal provisions below.

Notwithstanding the agreement to arbitrate above, either party may assert a claim seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from any court as necessary to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services or intellectual property infringement (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration. Such relief shall be limited to non-monetary remedies, and any claim for monetary damages shall remain subject to binding arbitration as provided herein.

CLASS ACTIONS ARE PROHIBITED: To the fullest extent permitted by law, all claims, including all arbitration claims, must be brought on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations, are not allowed.

This prohibition on class and representative proceedings shall be enforced under Kansas law (excluding its conflict of law rules). If, and only if, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that applicable law does not permit enforcement of this waiver in a given instance, then the waiver will apply to the maximum extent permitted by such law without affecting the validity of the remaining arbitration provisions.

Legal Provisions

Governing Law & Jurisdiction

Our provision of the Services, your use of the Services, and these Terms and all policies referenced in these Terms, will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Kansas excluding its conflict of law principles. With respect to any dispute arising out of or related to any of the foregoing, both you and we consent to jurisdiction in, and the exclusive venue of, the state courts in Johnson County, Kansas, or when applicable in the U.S. District Court having jurisdiction over that county.

Waiver of Jury Trial

You and we each waive trial by jury in all actions, proceedings, or counterclaims brought by either party against the other on any matter arising out of or in any way connected to the Services, your use of the Services, and these Terms and all policies referenced in these Terms.

Miscellaneous

Entire Agreement

These Terms, and all policies referenced in these Terms (if applicable to you), contain the entire agreement between you and us related to the Services and your use of the Services, and supersede all prior discussions and agreements (whether oral or written) by you and us related to the same.

Waiver

Any failure or delay by us to exercise any right or remedy in these Terms will not operate as a waiver of the same. Any waiver by us of a breach by you of any provision in these Terms will not operate as a waiver of any subsequent breach. Any waiver by us will not be effective unless and until it is in written form and signed by us.

Severability

Each provision in these Terms will be treated as separate and independent of the other provisions. Accordingly, if a court with competent jurisdiction declares a provision unenforceable, then the provision will be limited to the minimum extent necessary so that it remains enforceable. If such amendment is not possible, then the unenforceable provision will be deemed removed from these Terms, but the remaining provisions will remain in full force.

Assignment

Neither party may assign its rights or obligations under these Terms without the prior written consent of the other party, except that either party may assign, upon notice, to an Affiliate or in connection with a merger, reorganization, or sale of substantially all of its assets. Any assignment to a direct competitor of the non-assigning party (meaning an entity primarily engaged in the same line of business as the non-assigning party) requires that party’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. For purposes of this section, “Affiliate” means any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with a party. 

Power to Amend These Terms

We may amend these Terms any time, for any reason, with or without notice to you. Your continued use of the Services after the amended Terms are posted on the Services will constitute your acknowledgment and agreement to the amended Terms. However, to the extent the amended Terms materially alter your rights or obligations in these Terms, the amended Terms will become effective upon the earlier of (a) your continued use of the Services with actual knowledge of the amended Terms, or (b) 30 days after the amended Terms are posted on the Services.

Except as provided in an Order Form or elsewhere in these Terms, we may terminate your right to use the free and open portions of the Services at any time, for any reason. In all cases of termination, you will remain liable for any damage you caused or may later cause to us or any part of the Services. Upon termination, we may delete all your data and information in our systems.

Order Forms

Unless otherwise provided in your Order Form, either party (you or us) may terminate your Order Form at any time for any reason. Upon termination, you must pay us for Services rendered up to the effective termination date and cease using our Services. We will refund any prepaid, unused fees. Upon termination, we may delete all your data and information in our systems.

Survival of Terms

The following provisions of these Terms will survive any termination of your use of the Services or Order Form: (a) all provisions restricting your right to use the Services and all provisions limiting our obligations to you, (b) all provisions related to your obligation to pay us sums you owe us, (c) all provisions related to our intellectual property rights and all provisions related to your licenses of (and representations regarding) Your Content, (d) all provisions related to your indemnification obligations and all provisions related to arbitration, governing law, jurisdiction, and waiver of jury trials, (e) all provisions related to exclusions, disclaimers, and limitations of liability (except as limited by applicable law), (f) all provisions related to termination of your account and license to use the Services, and (g) all miscellaneous provisions.

Indemnification

You must indemnify us and our parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates, and the respective owners, directors, officers, managers, employees, contractors, and other representatives, of us and our parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates (the “Protected Parties”) against all reasonable expenses and liabilities including attorneys’ fees, costs, judgments, and damages of every kind (the “Losses”) arising out of any suit, claim, investigation, or proceeding, which is threatened or brought against a Protected Party, related to your (a) use of the Services, (b) breach of these Terms or any other policies referenced in these Terms, (c) submission of content that violates third party rights or applicable laws, or (d) violation of applicable law. We may, at your expense, assume the exclusive control and defense of any such matter. You must cooperate, at your expense, with our control and defense of any such matter. You must not settle any such matter without our prior written consent.

We shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless you, your affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, and employees from and against any third-party claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of:
(a) employment-related claims, demands, or actions brought by Assistants or governmental authorities relating to wages, taxes, or employment status of Assistants;
(b) intellectual property disputes related to Work Product created by Assistants.

Arbitration

If a dispute arises between you and us related to the Services, your use of the Services, or these Terms or any policies referenced in these Terms, the parties will first attempt in good faith to resolve through informal discussions. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute informally within thirty (30) days, then the dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration rather than in court (arbitration does not involve a judge or jury and court review of arbitration awards is limited). To initiate an arbitration, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent on file with the Kansas Secretary of State. The arbitration proceedings will be held in Johnson County, Kansas, USA, or virtually if both you and we agree to virtual arbitration. 

If this agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to your claim, then both you and we agree that any judicial proceedings will be brought in accordance with the legal provisions below.

Notwithstanding the agreement to arbitrate above, either party may assert a claim seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from any court as necessary to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services or intellectual property infringement (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration. Such relief shall be limited to non-monetary remedies, and any claim for monetary damages shall remain subject to binding arbitration as provided herein.

CLASS ACTIONS ARE PROHIBITED: To the fullest extent permitted by law, all claims, including all arbitration claims, must be brought on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations, are not allowed.

This prohibition on class and representative proceedings shall be enforced under Kansas law (excluding its conflict of law rules). If, and only if, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that applicable law does not permit enforcement of this waiver in a given instance, then the waiver will apply to the maximum extent permitted by such law without affecting the validity of the remaining arbitration provisions.

Legal Provisions

Governing Law & Jurisdiction

Our provision of the Services, your use of the Services, and these Terms and all policies referenced in these Terms, will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Kansas excluding its conflict of law principles. With respect to any dispute arising out of or related to any of the foregoing, both you and we consent to jurisdiction in, and the exclusive venue of, the state courts in Johnson County, Kansas, or when applicable in the U.S. District Court having jurisdiction over that county.

Waiver of Jury Trial

You and we each waive trial by jury in all actions, proceedings, or counterclaims brought by either party against the other on any matter arising out of or in any way connected to the Services, your use of the Services, and these Terms and all policies referenced in these Terms.

Miscellaneous

Entire Agreement

These Terms, and all policies referenced in these Terms (if applicable to you), contain the entire agreement between you and us related to the Services and your use of the Services, and supersede all prior discussions and agreements (whether oral or written) by you and us related to the same.

Waiver

Any failure or delay by us to exercise any right or remedy in these Terms will not operate as a waiver of the same. Any waiver by us of a breach by you of any provision in these Terms will not operate as a waiver of any subsequent breach. Any waiver by us will not be effective unless and until it is in written form and signed by us.

Severability

Each provision in these Terms will be treated as separate and independent of the other provisions. Accordingly, if a court with competent jurisdiction declares a provision unenforceable, then the provision will be limited to the minimum extent necessary so that it remains enforceable. If such amendment is not possible, then the unenforceable provision will be deemed removed from these Terms, but the remaining provisions will remain in full force.

Assignment

Neither party may assign its rights or obligations under these Terms without the prior written consent of the other party, except that either party may assign, upon notice, to an Affiliate or in connection with a merger, reorganization, or sale of substantially all of its assets. Any assignment to a direct competitor of the non-assigning party (meaning an entity primarily engaged in the same line of business as the non-assigning party) requires that party’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. For purposes of this section, “Affiliate” means any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with a party. 

Power to Amend These Terms

We may amend these Terms any time, for any reason, with or without notice to you. Your continued use of the Services after the amended Terms are posted on the Services will constitute your acknowledgment and agreement to the amended Terms. However, to the extent the amended Terms materially alter your rights or obligations in these Terms, the amended Terms will become effective upon the earlier of (a) your continued use of the Services with actual knowledge of the amended Terms, or (b) 30 days after the amended Terms are posted on the Services.

Termination

Use of Platform

You may stop using the free and open portions of the Services at any time. Except as provided in an Order Form or elsewhere in these Terms, we may terminate your right to use the free and open portions of the Services at any time, for any reason. In all cases of termination, you will remain liable for any damage you caused or may later cause to us or any part of the Services. Upon termination, we may delete all your data and information in our systems.

Order Forms

Unless otherwise provided in your Order Form, either party (you or us) may terminate your Order Form at any time for any reason. Upon termination, you must pay us for Services rendered up to the effective termination date and cease using our Services. We will refund any prepaid, unused fees. Upon termination, we may delete all your data and information in our systems.

Survival of Terms

The following provisions of these Terms will survive any termination of your use of the Services or Order Form: (a) all provisions restricting your right to use the Services and all provisions limiting our obligations to you, (b) all provisions related to your obligation to pay us sums you owe us, (c) all provisions related to our intellectual property rights and all provisions related to your licenses of (and representations regarding) Your Content, (d) all provisions related to your indemnification obligations and all provisions related to arbitration, governing law, jurisdiction, and waiver of jury trials, (e) all provisions related to exclusions, disclaimers, and limitations of liability (except as limited by applicable law), (f) all provisions related to termination of your account and license to use the Services, and (g) all miscellaneous provisions.

Indemnification

You must indemnify us and our parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates, and the respective owners, directors, officers, managers, employees, contractors, and other representatives, of us and our parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates (the “Protected Parties”) against all reasonable expenses and liabilities including attorneys’ fees, costs, judgments, and damages of every kind (the “Losses”) arising out of any suit, claim, investigation, or proceeding, which is threatened or brought against a Protected Party, related to your (a) use of the Services, (b) breach of these Terms or any other policies referenced in these Terms, (c) submission of content that violates third party rights or applicable laws, or (d) violation of applicable law. We may, at your expense, assume the exclusive control and defense of any such matter. You must cooperate, at your expense, with our control and defense of any such matter. You must not settle any such matter without our prior written consent.

We shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless you, your affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, and employees from and against any third-party claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of:
(a) employment-related claims, demands, or actions brought by Assistants or governmental authorities relating to wages, taxes, or employment status of Assistants;
(b) intellectual property disputes related to Work Product created by Assistants.

Arbitration

If a dispute arises between you and us related to the Services, your use of the Services, or these Terms or any policies referenced in these Terms, the parties will first attempt in good faith to resolve through informal discussions. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute informally within thirty (30) days, then the dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration rather than in court (arbitration does not involve a judge or jury and court review of arbitration awards is limited). To initiate an arbitration, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent on file with the Kansas Secretary of State. The arbitration proceedings will be held in Johnson County, Kansas, USA, or virtually if both you and we agree to virtual arbitration. 

If this agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to your claim, then both you and we agree that any judicial proceedings will be brought in accordance with the legal provisions below.

Notwithstanding the agreement to arbitrate above, either party may assert a claim seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from any court as necessary to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services or intellectual property infringement (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration. Such relief shall be limited to non-monetary remedies, and any claim for monetary damages shall remain subject to binding arbitration as provided herein.

CLASS ACTIONS ARE PROHIBITED: To the fullest extent permitted by law, all claims, including all arbitration claims, must be brought on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations, are not allowed.

This prohibition on class and representative proceedings shall be enforced under Kansas law (excluding its conflict of law rules). If, and only if, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that applicable law does not permit enforcement of this waiver in a given instance, then the waiver will apply to the maximum extent permitted by such law without affecting the validity of the remaining arbitration provisions.

Legal Provisions

Governing Law & Jurisdiction

Our provision of the Services, your use of the Services, and these Terms and all policies referenced in these Terms, will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Kansas excluding its conflict of law principles. With respect to any dispute arising out of or related to any of the foregoing, both you and we consent to jurisdiction in, and the exclusive venue of, the state courts in Johnson County, Kansas, or when applicable in the U.S. District Court having jurisdiction over that county.

Waiver of Jury Trial

You and we each waive trial by jury in all actions, proceedings, or counterclaims brought by either party against the other on any matter arising out of or in any way connected to the Services, your use of the Services, and these Terms and all policies referenced in these Terms.

Miscellaneous

Entire Agreement

These Terms, and all policies referenced in these Terms (if applicable to you), contain the entire agreement between you and us related to the Services and your use of the Services, and supersede all prior discussions and agreements (whether oral or written) by you and us related to the same.

Waiver

Any failure or delay by us to exercise any right or remedy in these Terms will not operate as a waiver of the same. Any waiver by us of a breach by you of any provision in these Terms will not operate as a waiver of any subsequent breach. Any waiver by us will not be effective unless and until it is in written form and signed by us.

Severability

Each provision in these Terms will be treated as separate and independent of the other provisions. Accordingly, if a court with competent jurisdiction declares a provision unenforceable, then the provision will be limited to the minimum extent necessary so that it remains enforceable. If such amendment is not possible, then the unenforceable provision will be deemed removed from these Terms, but the remaining provisions will remain in full force.

Assignment

Neither party may assign its rights or obligations under these Terms without the prior written consent of the other party, except that either party may assign, upon notice, to an Affiliate or in connection with a merger, reorganization, or sale of substantially all of its assets. Any assignment to a direct competitor of the non-assigning party (meaning an entity primarily engaged in the same line of business as the non-assigning party) requires that party’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. For purposes of this section, “Affiliate” means any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with a party. 

Power to Amend These Terms

We may amend these Terms any time, for any reason, with or without notice to you. Your continued use of the Services after the amended Terms are posted on the Services will constitute your acknowledgment and agreement to the amended Terms. However, to the extent the amended Terms materially alter your rights or obligations in these Terms, the amended Terms will become effective upon the earlier of (a) your continued use of the Services with actual knowledge of the amended Terms, or (b) 30 days after the amended Terms are posted on the Services.
