Alariss Global is a marketplace where Clients and Business Development Professionals can identify each other and buy and sell Business Development Professional Services online.

12% Alariss Service Fee on Base Salary

If a Client decides to engage the services of a Business Development Professional referred by Alariss Global, the Client shall use Alariss to invoice and pay any amounts owed under the Service Contract, equivalent to the hourly rate multiplied by the weekly hourly limit agreed to between Alariss Global and the Client in advance and established in writing, plus a 12% service fee for Alariss Global recruiting, compliance, payroll, customer support, and US taxes. Payments are processed by credit card or bank transfer on a monthly basis, and are due within five business days of an Alariss Global invoice.

For the avoidance of doubt: Alariss shall only take a 12% service fee on the Business Development Professional's base salary. Any commissions, contributions to retirement plans, equity grants, medical benefits and related benefits are excluded from the 12% service fee.

Termination

This is an on-demand service. Your Business Development Professional may be terminated at any time with 10 business days notice, with no obligation for purchases of future services. Terminations must be made either directly on the platform or in writing by email to [email protected]. If the Client terminates the Agreement prior to the end of the Month, the Client will be reimbursed for unworked hours within that month. For example, if the Client already paid the fee for a month of hours worked, and terminates after one week, the Client will be reimbursed for the remaining unworked hours (minus the 10 business day notice period).

Non-Circumvention

The Client agrees not to:

  • Offer or solicit or accept any offer or solicitation from parties identified through the Alariss Global Website (the Site) to contract, hire, invoice, pay, or receive payment in any manner other than through the Alariss Global Site.
  • Invoice or report on the Site or in a Conversion Fee request an invoice or payment amount lower than that actually agreed, made, or received between Clients.
  • Refer a Client you identified on the Site to a third-party who is not a Client of the Site for purposes of making or receiving payments other than through the Site.
Opting Out

If you choose to leave the Alariss Global platform and hire your Alariss Global Business Development Professional directly to your company by bypassing Alariss Global, you may only opt out of the obligations in the previous non-disintermediation section if you pay Alariss Global a Conversion Fee. You agree that the Conversion Fee is 20% of the estimated earnings over a twelve (12) month period, which is calculated by taking the Hourly Rate and multiplying it by 2,080. For the avoidance of doubt: any contributions to retirement plans, equity grants, medical benefits and related benefits are excluded from the calculation of estimated earnings for the Conversion Fee.

Confidentiality

Alariss Global and your Business Development Professional will not discuss, comment upon, disparage, share, or disclose any information, in any manner or form, directly or indirectly, to any person or other entity the nature of your business, prospective clients, clients, leads, intellectual property (IP) and pay or bill rates provided, without express written approval. Any violation of this section shall be deemed a material breach in this Agreement.
