Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using uphiire.com (the "Site"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

2. Description of Services

UpHiire operates a website that connects U.S. and international businesses with pre-vetted, independent contractor talent based in Latin America. Submitting an inquiry through this Site does not create any contractual obligation. Any placement, staffing, or ongoing service relationship between UpHiire, a client, and a contractor is governed by a separate written agreement signed by the relevant parties, not by these Terms.

UpHiire offers up to three distinct types of engagements, depending on what a client selects:

(a) Placement Services: UpHiire sources, screens, and delivers a shortlist of candidates to the client. Once a hire is made, the contractor is engaged directly by the client under a separate agreement between the client and the contractor. UpHiire's involvement ends at placement, except as described in the applicable Placement Agreement (including any replacement guarantee).

(b) Payment Facilitation (optional, upon request): For clients who elect this service, UpHiire collects payment from the client on a recurring basis and remits payment to the contractor accordingly, for a separate fee disclosed at the time the service is set up. The contractor agreement remains directly between the client and the contractor. UpHiire acts solely as a payment intermediary in this arrangement and is not a party to the scope, terms, or performance of the work itself.

(c) Contractor Management (optional, upon request and separate agreement): For clients who request it, UpHiire LLC may directly engage the contractor under an independent contractor agreement between UpHiire and the contractor, using a third-party contractor management platform to process payments and compliance documentation. In this arrangement, the client contracts with UpHiire for the contractor's services, and UpHiire separately contracts with the contractor. UpHiire remains the contracting party in this arrangement but does not act as a formal employer; the contractor remains an independent contractor, not an employee, of UpHiire or the client.

In all three arrangements, UpHiire is not an Employer of Record and does not assume payroll tax, benefits, or statutory employment obligations on behalf of any contractor.

3. No Employment Relationship

UpHiire is not an Employer of Record. Talent placed through UpHiire is engaged as an independent contractor by the client, not as an employee of UpHiire. UpHiire is not a party to the working relationship between a client and a contractor beyond the placement service itself.
