Scope of Use

Spur, Inc. and its affiliates, subsidiaries, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively “Spur”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) provide the Site to you, the user of the Site (“you” or “your”) for your informational, noncommercial use, and subject to the Terms of Service. The use of this Site to evaluate whether to enter into a business relationship with Spur shall not constitute a commercial use of the Site. It is a violation of the Terms of Service for you to use the Site in violation of any laws and regulations or in violation of the rules of any Spur service providers. Certain other programs or services provided by Spur through linked websites or other channels may have additional terms and conditions that govern your use of those services, and nothing in these Terms of Service is intended to modify, limit, or otherwise impair such terms of service.

Due to the nature of the Internet, Spur cannot guarantee the continuous and uninterrupted availability and accessibility of the Site. We may restrict the availability of the Site or certain areas or features thereof, in our sole discretion, including where we have determined that such restrictions are necessary to address capacity limits, the security or integrity of our servers, to carry out maintenance measures that ensure the proper or improved functioning of the Site or our required compliance with any law, regulation, or governmental agency mandate. The Site may also be affected by activities or events beyond our control, such as internet service provider outages or problems, fire, war, accident, act of God or act of terrorism. In addition, we may improve, enhance or modify the Site and introduce new services from time to time.

If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, non-current or incomplete, or we have reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, non-current or incomplete, then we have the right to terminate or refuse any and all current or future access or use of the Site (or any portion thereof).

We reserve the right to take any action that we deem necessary to ensure the security of the Site and Your Account, including without limitation changing your password, terminating Your Account, or requesting additional information to authorize transactions on Your Account. You are solely responsible for keeping Your User Information and any security questions and responses associated with Your Account confidential. Anyone with knowledge of or access to Your User Information or the security questions and responses associated with Your Account can use that information to gain access to Your Account.

You are solely liable for any claims, damages, losses, costs or other liabilities resulting from or caused by any failure to keep Your User Information and the security questions and responses confidential, whether such failure occurs with or without your knowledge or consent. You must immediately notify us of any suspected or actual unauthorized access to or use of Your Account, your User Information, or any other breach of Your Account security. You hereby authorize and consent to the collection, storage, sharing, use, transfer and sale by Spur and its service providers, of any information and data related to or derived from your use of the Site.

Terms Specific to Workers

NOTHING IN THESE TERMS OF SERVICE IS INTENDED TO CREATE AN EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT.

Payment for Jobs Completed:

Once you have accepted a Job through the Site, you will be prompted to start and end the Job through the Site to record time worked. Final time review by the Workplace for all completed Jobs from the previous week must be performed by 5 pm of the following Tuesday. Any time that is deemed incorrect can be disputed by either the Workplace or you. If the time entered is not disputed by either party by the following Tuesday at 5 pm, the Job is closed automatically, the Workplace will be responsible for Total Charges, and you will only be entitled to the amount of the agreed upon hourly rate multiplied by the hours recorded minus any withholdings applicable by law, contract or employee election. In limited cases, a Workplace may have a longer period of time for review, but only if set forth in a written agreement between the Workplace and Spur.

After you have indicated your completion of the Job, and after the Workplace has indicated its acceptance of your completion of such Job through the Site, funds shall be paid at least weekly via the Worker-elected payment method in the amount agreed upon at acceptance of the Job.

Enrollment in direct deposit is voluntary and is not a condition to hire or continued employment with Spur. Failure to enroll in direct deposit will not adversely affect the terms or conditions of your employment with Spur in any way. If you wish to enroll in direct deposit, you may select the financial institution that receives the deposit by timely completing the necessary information on the Site.

Additional Warranties and Representations:

You hereby warrant, represent, and agree that, upon each acceptance of a Job:

  • You are capable of completing the Job in accordance with the Job requirements as posted on the Site;
  • The skills, experience, background, and other information contained in your profile is accurate and not misleading;

Indemnity:

In addition and cumulative to any indemnification obligations otherwise provided herein and except where prohibited by applicable law or otherwise agreed in writing signed by an officer of Spur and you, you agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Spur and its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and permitted assigns (collectively, “Indemnified Parties”) against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs, or expenses of whatever kind, including attorneys’ fees, that are incurred by an Indemnified Party (collectively, “Losses”), arising out of or related to any third-party claim (including the claim of any other user) that arises out of your breach of any warranty, representation, or agreement contained in these Terms of Service by you or your officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, or permitted assigns. Notwithstanding anything in these Terms of Service, an Indemnified Party may select its own legal counsel to represent its interests.

Terms Specific to Workplaces

If you are agreeing to these Terms of Service on behalf of a Workplace, you represent and warrant as follows:

You represent that you have the authority to bind the Workplace (whether a person or legal entity) to the Terms of Service and, in such event, “you” and “your” will refer and apply to that person or legal entity that serves as the Workplace.

Job Acceptance:

The Workplace agrees that Workers control the acceptance of Jobs at their sole discretion. Spur does not guarantee any rate of acceptance of Jobs, that any particular Job will be accepted, or that any specific Worker will accept a Job, as acceptance of Jobs is fully dependent on the Workers.

Payments to Workers:

Once a Worker has accepted a Job through the Site, the Worker will be prompted to start and end the Job on the Site to record time worked. After the Worker has completed the Job and indicated such completion, we will process and pay the Worker based on the Job fee agreed upon between the Worker and Workplace at acceptance of the Job. Payment will be made on a weekly basis.

By accepting these Terms of Service, the Workplace agrees that the rate to be paid per hour by the Workplace, less our portion of such fees, will comply with all applicable federal, state and local minimum wage laws. This means that the minimum hourly compensation to be paid to a Worker (after deduction of our fees) by a Workplace shall be $7.25 per hour, unless applicable minimum wage laws require a higher hourly compensation, in which case the higher hourly compensation will be the minimum hourly compensation paid to a Worker (after deduction of our fees).

Hourly Rate, Payment Method, and Payment Processing Errors:

  • Hourly Rate: The Workplace sets the hourly pay rate for jobs booked through Spur, provided that, as described above, the wage paid to the Worker (after deduction of Spur’s fee) must satisfy our minimum rate requirements and the applicable federal, state and local minimum wage and other applicable laws. The Worker will start and end each Job via the Site. Final review of all time worked for the previous week must be completed by deadlines set by Spur, which are subject to change with appropriate notice. Any shifts not disputed by the Workplace by 5 pm Tuesday will pay as scheduled on Friday of that week to the Worker and the Workplace is liable for these charges. If the time entered is not disputed by either party, the Job is closed automatically, the Workplace will be responsible for Total Charges, and the Worker will only be entitled to the amount of the agreed upon hourly rate multiplied by the hours recorded minus taxes and Spur Admin costs and any withholdings applicable by law, contract or election. In limited cases, a Workplace may have a longer period of time for review, but only if set forth in a written agreement between the Workplace and Spur.
  • Overtime If a non-exempt Worker works over the locality specific overtime threshold of hours in the Work Week of Monday through Sunday, forty (40) hours for a single Workplace during a single pay period, said Workplace will be charged (i) the applicable overtime or premium hourly rate as mandated by local regulations, plus (ii) Spur's fee in lieu of Extended Shift Fees for the applicable days.
  • Payment Method: The Workplace agrees to pay Spur automatically by automated clearing house (ACH) payment. When you use ACH payment method, Spur may verify the payment method by authorizing a nominal amount, not to exceed one dollar ($1), or a similar sum in the payment method’s local currency. When you add a payment method during account creation, we will automatically save that payment method to Your Account so it can be used for future transactions. Please note that payment methods involve the use of third-party payment service providers. Your payment method may be subject to additional terms and conditions imposed by the applicable third-party payment service provider. Please review these terms and conditions before using a payment method. You authorize the third-party to store your payment method information and charge your payment method as outlined in these payments terms. If your payment method account information changes (e.g., account number, routing number, expiration date) it is your responsibility to update the information in order to continue use of the Site. You are solely responsible for the accuracy and completeness of your payment method information. Spur is not responsible for any loss suffered by you as a result of incorrect payment method information provided by you.
  • Payment Processing Errors: We will take steps to rectify any payment processing errors of which we become aware. These steps may include crediting or debiting (as appropriate) the same payment method used for the original payment by you, so that you end up paying the correct amount.

Additional Warranties and Representations:

As the Workplace, you warrant, represent, and agree that:

  • The Job as described on the Site is a fair and accurate presentation of the work that you wish to have performed by the Worker;
  • You have provided any necessary descriptions, instructions, schedules, and specification to the Worker in the Job posting on the Site;
  • Any descriptions of the form and scope of the desired Job are reasonably accurate;
  • The pay rate specified in the Job acceptance is correct and acceptable to the Workplace;
  • All Jobs posted by you comply with applicable federal, state, and local international law; and
  • You will cooperate with us to comply with all legal requirements that apply to our employment relationship with the Workers, including but not limited to providing a reasonable accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and preventing unlawful harassment and cooperating in the investigation of and non-retaliation for any allegation of unlawful harassment.

Indemnity

In addition and cumulative to any indemnification obligations otherwise provided herein and except where prohibited by applicable law or otherwise agreed in writing signed by an officer of Spur and you, you agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Spur and its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and permitted assigns (collectively, “Indemnified Parties”) against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs, or expenses of whatever kind, including attorneys’ fees, that are incurred by an Indemnified Party (collectively, “Losses”), arising out of or related to any third-party claim (including the claim of any other user) that arises out of your breach of any warranty, representation, or agreement contained in these Terms of Service by you or your officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, or permitted assigns. Notwithstanding anything in these Terms of Service, an Indemnified Party may select its own legal counsel to represent its interests.

Term and Termination

Subject to earlier termination as provided below, these Terms of Service is for the “Initial Service Term” as specified in the order form and shall be automatically renewed for additional periods of the same duration as the Initial Service Term (collectively, the “Term”), unless either party requests termination at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then-current term.

In addition to any other remedies it may have, either party may also terminate these Terms of Service upon thirty (30) days’ notice (or without notice in the case of nonpayment), if the other party materially breaches any of the terms or conditions of these Terms of Service and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days of notice from the non-breaching party. Workplace will pay in full for the services provided by Workers up to and including the last day on which the Worker’s provide services to the Workplace. All sections of these Terms of Service which by their nature should survive termination will survive termination, including, without limitation, accrued rights to payment, confidentiality obligations, warranty disclaimers, and limitations of liability.

ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of, relating to, or in connection with your use of the Site, the contents of the Site, these Terms of Service, or in the case of a Worker your employment by us, including the breach, termination, or validity thereof, shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration before the American Arbitration Association using its Commercial Arbitration Rules (except where prohibited by law). The site of such arbitration shall be Huntsville, Alabama. The arbitrator shall have the power to rule on any challenge to its own jurisdiction or to the validity or enforceability of any portion of the agreement to arbitrate. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to arbitrate solely on an individual basis, and acknowledge and agree that these Terms of Service do not permit class arbitration or any claims brought as a plaintiff or class member in any class, representative, or collective arbitration proceeding. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree that the arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. You agree that notwithstanding the tribunal’s power to rule on its own jurisdiction and the validity or enforceability of the agreement to arbitrate, the tribunal has no power to rule on the validity or enforceability of the agreement to arbitrate solely on an individual basis. You agree that in the event the prohibition on class arbitration is deemed invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remaining portions of this arbitration agreement will remain in full force and effect. Judgment on any award may be entered by any court having competent jurisdiction, and you specifically agree and waive objection and hereby submit to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in Madison County, Alabama. The provisions of this paragraph notwithstanding, you agree that we may seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief against you prior to arbitrating any dispute, controversy, or claim as necessary to protect our interests in the enforcement of these Terms of Service without waiving the arbitration provisions of these Terms of Service.

Jurisdiction, Venue, and Choice of Law

SEPARATE AND APART FROM THE FOREGOING ARBITRATION PROVISION, AND IN ADDITION TO SUCH PROVISION, you agree that any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service, the transactions contemplated hereby, or in the case of a Worker your employment by Spur, that for any reason is not submitted to arbitration (or in the event the arbitration provision is stricken from this agreement) shall only be instituted in the state or federal courts located in Madison County, Alabama, and you irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any suit, action, or proceeding not covered by the arbitration provision set out above. The provisions of this paragraph do not alter, amend, or supersede the requirement that you submit any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or related to these Terms of Service, the transactions contemplated herein, or in the case of a Worker your employment by Spur, to binding arbitration as spelled out above.
