Partner Terms

Draft of 27 October 2026

The agreement

These terms are between bConsulted LLC, 5990 Richmond Highway, Alexandria, VA 22303 (“we”), which operates Empower HR, and the firm we approve as a partner. They are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, United States. They sit beside our Terms of Service, which also apply. [Counsel to confirm the courts that hear disputes and who may accept these terms on a firm's behalf.]

Approval and lines of work

We approve a firm for each line it works on (Payroll, Recruiting, Performance, Strategy, Talent). A firm acts for a client only in the lines and with the powers that client's Owner allows, and only while the engagement lasts. [Counsel to set out the grounds on which we may refuse, suspend or end an approval.]

Fees

A yearly partner fee of $300, credited in full against the firm's usage charges in the same fee year, and a monthly charge per active employee for each client company the firm bills, as shown on our partner program page. Prices are in US dollars. [Counsel and the owner to confirm invoicing, payment terms, taxes, late payment and notice of price changes.]

Clients

Each client company owns its data and keeps full rights over its own account. A client's Owner may stop being billed through the firm or end the engagement at any time; the firm's access then ends and the client keeps its data. [Counsel to settle what the firm owes for the month in which a client leaves.]

Data protection and confidentiality

A firm handles its clients' employee data only to do the work the client engaged it for, and contacts a client's people only through the platform. [Data processing terms between the firm, its clients and us, to be drafted by counsel.]

Liability and ending

[Warranties, limits of liability, indemnities, and how either side ends these terms, to be drafted by counsel.]
