Last Updated: [10/6/2024]

Welcome, and thank you for your interest in HireSphereAI, Inc. ("HireSphere AI," "we," or "us") and our website at www.hiresphere.ai along with our related websites, hosted applications, mobile or other downloadable applications, and other services provided by us (collectively, the "Service"). These Terms of Service are a legally binding contract between you and HireSphere AI regarding your use of the Service.

1. HireSphereAI Service Overview

HireSphereAI provides a talent and recruiting ecosystem, with a focus on Tech. Job seekers may use the Service to be matched with potential employment openings and freelance opportunities from potential employers, staffing agencies, and other entities using the Services ("Employers").

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service. By agreeing to these Terms, you represent and warrant to us that: (a) you are at least 18 years old; (b) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Service; and (c) your registration and your use of the Service is in compliance with any and all applicable laws and regulations. If you are an entity, organization, or company, the individual accepting these Terms on your behalf represents and warrants that they have authority to bind you to these Terms and you agree to be bound by these Terms.

3. Accounts and Registration

To access most features of the Service, you must register for an account. When you register for an account, you may be required to provide us with some information about yourself, such as your name, email address, or other contact information. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate, complete, and not misleading, and that you will keep it accurate and up to date at all times. When you register, you will be asked to create a password. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, and you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. If you believe that your account is no longer secure, then you should immediately notify us at support@hiresphere.ai.

4. General Payment Terms

Certain features of the Service may require you to pay fees. Before you pay any fees, you will have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged. Unless otherwise specifically provided for in these Terms, all fees are in U.S. Dollars and are non-refundable, except as required by law.

4.1 Price

HireSphereAI reserves the right to determine pricing for the Service. HireSphereAI will make reasonable efforts to keep pricing information published on the Service up to date. We encourage you to check our pricing page periodically for current pricing information. HireSphereAI may change the fees for any feature of the Service, including additional fees or charges, if HireSphereAI gives you advance notice of changes before they apply. HireSphereAI, at its sole discretion, may make promotional offers with different features and different pricing to any of HireSphereAI's customers. These promotional offers, unless made to you, will not apply to your offer or these Terms.

4.2 Authorization

You authorize HireSphereAI to charge all sums for the orders that you make and any level of Service you select as described in these Terms or published by HireSphereAI, including all applicable taxes, to the payment method specified in your account. If you pay any fees with a credit card, then HireSphereAI may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your purchase.

4.3 Subscription Service

The Service may include certain subscription-based plans with automatically recurring payments for periodic charges ("Subscription Service"). The "Subscription Billing Date" is the date when you purchase your first subscription to the Service. The Subscription Service will begin on the Subscription Billing Date and continue for the subscription period that you select on your account (such period, the "Initial Subscription Period"), and will automatically renew for successive periods of the same duration as the Initial Subscription Period (the Initial Subscription Period and each such renewal period, each a "Subscription Period") unless you cancel the Subscription Service or we terminate it. If you activate a Subscription Service, then you authorize HireSphereAI or its third-party payment processors to periodically charge, on a going-forward basis and until cancellation of the Subscription Service, all accrued sums on or before the payment due date. For information on the "Subscription Fee", please see our pricing page. Your account will be charged automatically on the Subscription Billing Date and thereafter on the renewal date of your Subscription Service for all applicable fees and taxes for the next Subscription Period. You must cancel your Subscription Service before it renews in order to avoid billing of the next periodic Subscription Fee to your account. HireSphereAI or its third-party payment processor will bill the periodic Subscription Fee to the payment method associated with your account or that you otherwise provide to us. You may cancel the Subscription Service by contacting us at support@hiresphere.ai. YOUR CANCELLATION MUST BE RECEIVED BEFORE THE RENEWAL DATE IN ORDER TO AVOID CHARGE FOR THE NEXT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD.

4.4 Delinquent Accounts

HireSphereAI may suspend or terminate access to the Service, including fee-based portions of the Service, for any account for which any amount is due but unpaid. In addition to the amount due for the Service, a delinquent account will be charged with fees or charges that are incidental to any chargeback or collection of any the unpaid amount, including collection fees. If your payment method is no longer valid at the time a renewal Subscription Fee is due, then HireSphereAI reserves the right to delete your account and any information or User Content (defined below) associated with your account without any liability to you.

Certain features of the Service may permit users to submit, upload, publish, broadcast, or otherwise transmit ("Post") content to the Service, including resumes, skills, messages, reviews, photos, video or audio (including sound or voice recordings and musical recordings embodied in the video or audio), images, folders, data, text, and any other works of authorship or other works ("User Content").

8.2 Limited License Grant to HireSphereAI

By Posting User Content to or via the Service, you grant HireSphereAI a worldwide, non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid right and license (with the right to sublicense through multiple tiers) to host, store, transfer, publicly display, publicly perform (including by means of a digital audio transmission), communicate to the public, reproduce, modify for the purpose of formatting for display, create derivative works as authorized in these Terms, and distribute your User Content, in whole or in part, in any media formats and through any media channels, in each instance whether now known or hereafter developed.

You agree that HireSphereAI may aggregate your data with the data of other HireSphereAI users for such purposes. All of the rights you grant in these Terms are provided on a through-to-the-audience basis, meaning the owners or operators of external services will not have any separate liability to you or any other third party for User Content Posted or otherwise used on external services via the Service. You agree to pay all monies owing to any person or entity resulting from Posting your User Content and from HireSphereAI's exercise of the license set forth in this Section.

The license contained in this Section does not permit the subject of any photo or their administrators, guardians, heirs, or trustees to sell that image or photograph, whether on a standalone basis or as embodied in any product.

8.5 Specific Rules for Musical Works and for Recording Artists

If you are a composer or author of a musical work and have granted non-exclusive rights to a Performing Rights Organization ("PRO"), then you must notify your PRO of the royalty-free license you grant through these Terms to HireSphereAI. You are solely responsible for ensuring your compliance with the relevant PRO's reporting obligations. If you have assigned your rights to a music publisher or a PRO, then you must obtain the consent of that music publisher or PRO to grant the royalty-free license(s) set forth in these Terms or have that music publisher or PRO enter into these Terms with HireSphereAI. Just because you authored a musical work (e.g., wrote a song) does not mean you have the right to grant HireSphereAI the licenses in these Terms. If you are a recording artist under contract with a record label, then you are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Service is in compliance with any contractual obligations you have to your record label, including if you create any new recordings through the Service that may be claimed by your label. Finally, if you wish to perform a cover song and Post it to the Service, you are responsible for securing all rights in and to the underlying musical work before Posting your recording or performance of that musical work to the Service.

By providing User Content via the Service, you affirm, represent, and warrant to us that:

1. you are the creator and owner of the User Content, or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to authorize HireSphereAI and users of the Service to use and distribute your User Content as necessary to exercise the licenses granted by you in this Section, in the manner contemplated by HireSphereAI, the Service, and these Terms;
