Welcome to Indeed Flex, Inc. (“Flex” or “us”)! We are an online platform that connects businesses that are looking to engage temporary staff on an as-needed basis (each such business being the “Client”) with individuals (each such individual being a “Flexer”,  or  “Client Worker”, as applicable) who are looking for ad-hoc opportunities to provide their services.

This Flexer User License (“Flexer User License”) applies to any Flexer or Client Worker, prospective Flexer or Client Worker, or other User who accesses or uses Flex as a worker, or who otherwise indicates acceptance of this Flex User License. This Flexer User License presides over your use of the services offered by Flex via Flex’s website, web application (accessible via the following URL https://indeedflex.com) and mobile applications. Such services, website and mobile applications (including the Indeed Flex App) are hereinafter together referred to as the “Service”. By accessing and using the Service or by otherwise accepting this Flex User License, you agree to this Flex User License. Please read this Flex User License carefully and in conjunction with any other agreement which may be in place between you and Flex such as the Flexer Employer Terms of Service and the Flex Privacy Policy (accessible via the following URL https://hrtechprivacy.com/brands/indeedflex). Your use of the Service constitutes your acceptance of and agreement to all of the terms and conditions defined herein.  

Flex reserves the right, from time to time to change this Flexer User License at its sole discretion, by notifying you of such changes by any reasonable means, including by posting the latest version on the Service with the date that it was last updated.

  1. User Accounts

Users create an Account when they register to use the Service. By creating an Account, a User confirms that they are 18 years old or over and are legally capable of entering into binding contracts. 

All User Accounts are associated with individuals. All Users are responsible for their Accounts, including making sure that all User details are correct and kept up-to-date and for ensuring that their password is secure. If a User has any reason to believe that their Account is being used by anyone else, contact Flex immediately by  visiting the support section in the Indeed Flex App If we believe that a User’s Account has been compromised, we may suspend that account and will attempt to contact the User to try and resolve the problem.

We may, at our sole discretion, refuse to register any person or entity as a User.

If you have any problems creating an account, logging into your Account or updating your details, please have a look at our FAQs or Contact Us by  visiting the support section in the Indeed Flex App. 

By providing Flex with a mobile phone number, you confirm that you are the primary user and subscriber to the telephone number entered, and you agree to receive calls (including using artificial or pre-recorded voice), and texts from Flex.  When you give Flex your mobile number, you understand that such mobile number is integral to your role as a Flexer or Client Worker and for your performance of Flexer Services. We may place such calls or texts to (i) notify you regarding any of your Engagements or upcoming Shifts; (ii) notify you of results or feedback regarding your performance of Flexer Services; (iii) troubleshoot problems with your Account; (iv) resolve a dispute; or (v) as otherwise necessary to facilitate performance of Flexer Services. To stop receiving text messages, reply to the text with STOP or contact your Flex supervisor. For clarity, you agree and understand that texting STOP in response to a Flex SMS alert will unsubscribe you from those Flex SMS alerts; however, you may continue to receive texts which you have otherwise consented to receive. You may continue to receive texts related to your performance of Flexer Services. To revoke consent to receiving such texts, contact your Flex supervisor. Flex may require you to provide alternative methods for contacting you in connection with your performance of Flexer Services. You may also revoke your consent to receive text messages by terminating your Account. Revoking consent by replying STOP or terminating the Account does not apply to a phone number that a Client already has that you provided to the Client. Once a Client has your phone number, you agree that Flex is not responsible or liable for the manner in which the Client uses the number.

  1. Assignments (Client Workers Only)

Flex does not review, approve, recommend, guarantee or verify any of the credentials, licenses or statements in relation to Assignments posted by Clients and made available to Client Workers its Services.Flex shall not be liable or responsible to the extent it has been provided with misleading, inaccurate, false or fraudulent information by Clients.

The notice must include the following information as required by 17 USC. § 512(c)(3)(A): (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works); (c) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow Flex to locate the material on the site; (d) the name, address, telephone number, and email address (if available) of the complaining party; (e) a statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (f) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright/ for details. Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Site should be sent in writing to Indeed Copyright Notice, 6433 Champion Grandview Way, Building 1, Austin, TX, 78750, USA (copyright @ indeed.com) (remove spaces when sending email).
