4.1 No Guarantee of Placement

• You are legally authorized to work in the United States.

Misrepresentation of qualifications, credentials, or eligibility is grounds for immediate disqualification or termination of any active engagement without liability to Evolve Blue.

4.3 W2 Employment Terms

All contractor placements by Evolve Blue are made on a W2 basis. Specific employment terms, compensation, benefits eligibility, intellectual property assignment, confidentiality obligations, and non-solicitation covenants are governed by the separate W2 Employment Agreement and applicable offer letter. In the event of conflict between these Terms and a signed employment agreement, the employment agreement controls.

4.4 Non-Circumvention

Clients who receive candidate profiles from Evolve Blue agree not to directly engage, hire, or contract with any presented candidate outside of an Evolve Blue agreement for a period of 12 months from the date of submission, without Evolve Blue's prior written consent and payment of the applicable finder's fee.

Technology delivery engagements (application modernization, systems integration, workflow automation, AI-enabled tools, cloud & operations) are governed by a mutually executed Master Services Agreement (MSA) and Statement of Work (SOW). These Terms apply to website use and general service inquiries; the MSA and SOW govern all delivery, payment, intellectual property, and warranty terms for specific technology engagements.

5.2 Government Task Orders

Services performed under a government prime contract, subcontract, or IDIQ task order are additionally governed by applicable FAR/DFARS clauses, agency-specific requirements, and the prime contractor's flow-down provisions. In cases of conflict, applicable federal law and contract clauses supersede these Terms.

10. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

10.1 Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to its conflict of law principles. For matters involving federal government contracts, applicable U.S. federal law governs to the extent it conflicts with Pennsylvania law.

10.2 Dispute Resolution

Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site shall first be subject to good-faith negotiation between the parties. If unresolved within 30 days, disputes shall be submitted to binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, with the arbitration held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Class action waiver: You agree that any arbitration or legal proceeding shall be conducted solely on an individual basis. You waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration.

Notwithstanding the above, either party may seek emergency injunctive relief in the state or federal courts located in Montgomery County or Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, to prevent irreparable harm pending resolution of a dispute.

10.3 Government Disputes

Disputes arising from government contract performance are governed by the Contract Disputes Act (41 U.S.C. §§ 7101–7109) and applicable agency dispute resolution procedures, not these Terms.
