This Enterprise Services Agreement ("ESA") is entered into by and between DARWN Inc. ("DARWN," "we," "us") and the organization ("Client," "you," "your") accessing DARWN's enterprise services. This ESA, together with our general Terms of Service and Employer Terms, governs your use of DARWN's recruitment, candidate discovery, risk reporting, and data services.
By creating an Enterprise Account or using DARWN's enterprise features, you represent that you have the authority to bind your organization to this Agreement.
To create an Enterprise Account, your organization must:
Access to DARWN's marketplace of healthcare professionals, including anonymized profiles, performance metrics, and career trajectory data.
Access to High-Risk designation risk reports, subject to the Risk Report Terms, providing performance risk indicators, tenure patterns, and workforce risk assessments.
Facilitated hiring process including full candidate profile access upon purchase, credential verification support, and placement tracking.
Access to workforce analytics, market data, and benchmarking reports, subject to the Data License Agreement.
DARWN offers multiple service tiers for enterprise clients:
Specific pricing is set forth in the applicable Order Form or Subscription Agreement executed by the parties.
As an enterprise client, you agree to:
Candidate profiles on DARWN are anonymized by default. You will see general information including specialty, experience level, geographic region, and performance metrics, but not personally identifying information.
Upon purchasing access to a specific candidate profile, you will receive full identifying information including name, contact details, NPI number, credentials, and employment history. This data is subject to strict confidentiality requirements.
All candidate data, whether anonymized or identified, is confidential. You agree to:
Both parties agree to comply with all applicable data protection laws, including but not limited to:
You are solely responsible for ensuring your organization's use of DARWN data complies with your internal data governance policies and applicable regulations.
A placement fee applies when you hire a professional discovered through or facilitated by the DARWN platform. Fee structures are determined by your service tier:
Placement fees are invoiced upon the candidate's start date and payable within 30 days of the invoice date (Net-30). Late payments are subject to interest at the rate of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower.
If you dispute a fee, you must notify DARWN in writing within 15 days of the invoice date. Undisputed portions remain due on the original payment date.
If a placed candidate voluntarily leaves your organization or is terminated for cause within 90 days of their start date, you may be eligible for a partial credit toward a replacement search. Guarantee terms vary by service tier and are specified in your Order Form.
To qualify for the guarantee, you must notify DARWN within 7 days of the candidate's departure and provide documentation of the termination or resignation.
You agree NOT to:
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless DARWN and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to:
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, DARWN'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL FEES PAID BY YOU TO DARWN IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE DATE OF THE CLAIM.
DARWN SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, COST OF REPLACEMENT HIRES, OR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM HIRING DECISIONS MADE USING DARWN DATA.
DARWN DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, OR RELIABILITY OF ANY CANDIDATE DATA, RISK REPORTS, OR PLACEMENT OUTCOMES.
This Agreement begins on the date you accept it and continues for an initial term of one (1) year, automatically renewing for successive one-year periods unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal at least 30 days before the end of the current term.
Either party may terminate this Agreement with 30 days' written notice to the other party.
Either party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice if the other party materially breaches this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within 15 days of receiving written notice.
