Terms of Service

By accessing and using the Offshore1st website and services, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use our services.

Offshore1st provides offshore staffing and team augmentation services, connecting businesses with pre-vetted technology professionals based in India. Our services include candidate sourcing, vetting, matching, and ongoing team management.

We offer three primary engagement models:
- Dedicated Hire: Full-time resources on monthly billing
- Pod/Team: Cross-functional teams with a dedicated lead
- Project-Based: Fixed scope and timeline engagements

Specific terms for each engagement will be detailed in a separate Statement of Work (SOW) or Service Agreement.

All work product created by our team members during the course of your engagement is your intellectual property. Full IP ownership transfers to you upon payment. Each team member signs individual NDAs to protect your proprietary information.

Payment terms are as specified in your Service Agreement. Monthly billing is due within 15 days of invoice date. Late payments may incur a charge of 1.5% per month on the outstanding balance.

If a team member does not meet your expectations, we offer a free replacement within 2 weeks. During the first 30 days, replacements are provided with no questions asked.

Both parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of any proprietary or sensitive information shared during the engagement. This obligation survives the termination of the agreement.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Offshore1st's total liability for any claim arising from our services shall not exceed the fees paid by you in the three months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.

Either party may terminate an engagement with 30 days written notice. Upon termination, you will be invoiced for any services rendered up to the termination date. All confidentiality obligations survive termination.

These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with applicable laws. Any disputes arising from these terms shall be resolved through good-faith negotiation, and if necessary, binding arbitration.
