Terms of Service

Last updated: June 14, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the HireSciences website at hiresciences.com and the assessment services we provide (collectively, the "Services"). The Services are operated by HireSciences LLC ("HireSciences," "we," "us," or "our"), a Connecticut limited liability company. By accessing the website, requesting a demo, or engaging us to design or administer an assessment, you agree to these Terms.

1. Who may use the Services

The Services are intended for businesses and their authorized representatives engaged in lawful hiring. You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract. If you use the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to bind that organization to these Terms.

2. The Services

HireSciences designs role-specific hiring assessments for employer clients, administered by the client during its own hiring process. Candidate responses are scored using documented, rule-based criteria, and each resulting report is reviewed by a person before release. Assessments and reports are decision-support tools only; they do not make hiring decisions.

3. Client responsibilities

  • Use the Services only for lawful, job-related hiring purposes and in compliance with all applicable employment, anti-discrimination, and privacy laws (including, where applicable, Title VII, the ADA, the ADEA, the EEOC Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures, and state and local laws governing automated or AI-assisted employment tools).
  • Provide candidates with any notices and obtain any consents required by law before administering an assessment.
  • Provide reasonable accommodations to candidates who request them, and notify HireSciences where an accommodation affects assessment delivery.
  • Make final hiring decisions yourself. An assessment is one input and must not be used as the sole basis for an adverse employment decision where prohibited by law.
  • Provide accurate information during intake and keep any access credentials confidential.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to: (a) copy, reverse engineer, resell, or create derivative works from the Services or assessment content; (b) access the Services by automated means or scrape data; (c) interfere with or compromise the security or integrity of the Services; (d) use the Services to harass, to discriminate unlawfully, or to violate any third party's rights; or (e) use the Services in any unlawful manner.

5. Intellectual property

HireSciences and its licensors own all rights in the Services, including the assessment template library, scoring logic, software, and brand. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Services and the reports we deliver for your internal hiring purposes. You retain ownership of the data and materials you provide to us, and you grant us the license needed to use them to provide the Services.

6. Fees and payment

Fees, scope, and payment terms for paid engagements are set out in a separate order, proposal, or statement of work. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, fees are due as stated in that document. We do not work on a contingency basis.

7. Assessments, reports, and no guarantee of outcomes

Assessments measure observable, job-related behavior against the criteria a client defines at intake. They are predictive tools, not guarantees. HireSciences does not warrant that a candidate who performs well will succeed in a role, or that any particular hiring outcome will result. The client is solely responsible for its hiring decisions and for compliance with all laws governing those decisions.

8. Third-party services

The Services rely on third-party providers, including Supabase (data hosting and storage), Vercel (application hosting), and Anthropic (used to draft narrative report language). These providers process data under their own terms and our agreements with them. We are not responsible for the acts or omissions of third-party providers beyond our reasonable control.

9. Disclaimers

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

10. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HIRESCIENCES AND ITS MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUES, OR DATA. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICES IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100) IF YOU HAVE PAID NOTHING.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless HireSciences from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the Services, your hiring decisions, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

12. Confidentiality

Each party may receive confidential information from the other. The receiving party will use it only to perform under these Terms and will protect it with reasonable care. This obligation does not apply to information that is or becomes public, is independently developed, or is required to be disclosed by law.

13. Term and termination

These Terms apply while you use the Services. We may suspend or terminate access for violation of these Terms or applicable law. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification — will survive.

14. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date below and, where appropriate, by additional notice. Your continued use of the Services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.

15. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Connecticut, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The parties will first attempt to resolve any dispute informally by contacting contact@hiresciences.com. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Connecticut, and the parties consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

16. General

These Terms, together with any order or statement of work, are the entire agreement between you and HireSciences regarding the Services. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. Neither party is liable for delays caused by events beyond its reasonable control.
