These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and Integral Inc., which offers WageGuard (“WageGuard,” “we,” “us” or “Company”), governing your use of our website at wageguard.io, the WageGuard application at app.wageguard.io and the WageGuard sign-in service at accounts.app.wageguard.io (together, the “Platform”), as we may update them from time to time. Please read these Terms carefully. If you do not agree with them, you may not use the Platform. To use the WageGuard application, you must be invited or authorized by a general contractor, project owner or subcontractor that uses WageGuard (each a “Customer”). If a Customer has signed a subscription or services agreement with us, that agreement governs the Customer’s use of the application and controls where it conflicts with these Terms.
Depending on the context, “you” means a user of the WageGuard application authorized by a Customer, the Customer on whose behalf that user acts, or a visitor to our website.
The Platform is intended for business use by people in the United States who are 18 years of age or older. If you are under 18, you may not use the Platform.
By accessing or using the Platform in any way, including browsing the website, uploading information or signing a declaration, you agree to be bound by these Terms. SECTION 1 EXPLAINS HOW DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US WILL BE RESOLVED.
We may update the Platform or change these Terms by posting a revised version on this page and giving any other notice the law requires. If you continue to use the Platform after changes take effect, you agree to the updated Terms. Please review these Terms periodically.
We may change, suspend or discontinue the Platform or any part of it. Where a Customer has a subscription agreement with us, we will give notice and handle the Customer’s records as that agreement provides.
These Terms contain the following sections:
1. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law
If you have a dispute with us about the Platform or these Terms, please contact us first at info@wageguard.io or at the address below and describe the issue. We will try in good faith to resolve it with you informally within 30 days.
If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, it will be decided exclusively by the state or federal courts located in the State of Oregon, and you and we consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. These Terms, and any dispute arising out of or relating to the Platform or these Terms, are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules.
2. Personal Information
Parts of the Platform allow you to provide personal information to us, including information about workers contained in payroll records. Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and share information.
The Platform is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16.
We record activity in the WageGuard application, such as uploads, edits, approvals and signatures, in order to secure the Platform and maintain the audit trail we provide to Customers. Nothing in these Terms limits our ability to comply with laws, court orders or lawful requests from government authorities.
3. License to Platform and Company Content
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Platform for your organization’s internal business purposes.
The Platform and its content provided by us or our licensors — including software, text, graphics, designs, screens and the WageGuard name and logo (“Company Content”) — belong to Integral Inc. or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell or create derivative works from Company Content, use it in a way that is likely to cause confusion or that disparages WageGuard, or use the WageGuard name or logo without our written permission.
Sign-in to the Platform is provided by Microsoft Entra, and your use of it is also subject to Microsoft’s terms. These Terms add to, and do not change, the terms of any such third-party service.
If you send us suggestions, ideas or other feedback about the Platform (“Feedback”), you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use that Feedback for any purpose, without obligation to you.
4. Use of the Platform and Your Data
When you use the Platform, you agree not to:
- use it for any unlawful purpose or in a way that violates anyone’s rights;
- upload information you do not have the right to share, or information you know to be false or misleading;
- impersonate any person or organization, or misrepresent your affiliation with one;
- upload viruses or other harmful code, or interfere with the operation or security of the Platform;
- access, or try to access, accounts, projects or data you are not authorized to access;
- scrape or harvest data from the Platform by automated means; or
- copy, reverse engineer, resell or use the Platform to build a competing product, except as the law expressly allows.
Payroll records, documents and other information that you or your organization upload to the Platform (“Your Data”) remain yours. You grant us a limited license to host, copy, process, transmit and display Your Data as needed to provide, secure and improve the Platform, including making it available to the other authorized parties on your projects as the Platform is designed to do. We do not publish Your Data or make it available to the public.
You represent that you have the right to upload Your Data, including information about workers, and that you have provided any notices and obtained any permissions the law requires to do so.
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Integral Inc. and its officers, employees and contractors from claims, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from Your Data, your misuse of the Platform or your violation of these Terms.
5. Your Account
To use the WageGuard application you need an account, which a Customer authorizes for you. You agree to provide accurate and complete information, to keep it up to date, and to use the account only for yourself. You may not let anyone else use your account.
Sign-in uses multi-factor authentication through Microsoft Entra. You are responsible for keeping your credentials and authentication methods secure and for activity that occurs under your account. Tell us promptly at info@wageguard.io if you believe your account has been used without authorization. We are not responsible for losses caused by someone else using your credentials.
We may suspend or end your access if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or if needed to protect the Platform or other users. The Customer that authorized your account may also remove your access. Records you submitted on a Customer’s projects belong to that Customer’s project record and are handled under our agreement with the Customer.
6. Representations and Limitations of Liability
WageGuard is not legal advice. WageGuard is a tool for collecting, organizing, checking and documenting payroll records. We are not a law firm, and nothing on the Platform is legal, tax, payroll, accounting or employment advice or a substitute for advice from a qualified professional. Using WageGuard does not guarantee compliance with Oregon Senate Bill 426, prevailing wage laws or any other law, and does not guarantee any outcome in a wage claim, audit or lawsuit. WageGuard does not run payroll, does not determine whether any worker was paid correctly, and does not replace any certified payroll reporting you are required to file.
You are solely responsible for your decisions and for meeting your own legal obligations, including your obligations under SB 426, and you agree that we are not liable for decisions you make in reliance on the Platform. We encourage you to consult a construction attorney about your obligations.
We do not verify or guarantee the accuracy of information uploaded by users, and nothing on the Platform is an endorsement of any Customer, subcontractor or record.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Platform is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Platform will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that automated extraction or verification will be accurate or complete.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Integral Inc. and WageGuard will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data or goodwill, arising out of or relating to the Platform or these Terms, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability for all claims arising out of or relating to the Platform or these Terms will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us for the Platform in the twelve months before the claim arose and one hundred U.S. dollars ($100). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some of these limitations may not apply to you.
We are not responsible for third-party products, services or websites accessed through the Platform, or for any dealings between you and a third party.
7. Additional Terms for Declarations and Automated Extraction
The Platform uses automated tools, including AI-based document processing, to read uploaded payroll documents and extract data from them. Automated extraction can make mistakes. You are responsible for reviewing extracted data, correcting it where needed, and approving it before you rely on it.
A declaration signed in the Platform is a statement made by the person who signs it, not by WageGuard. The signer is responsible for the accuracy of the declaration and of the records it covers. Do not sign a declaration unless you have reviewed it and believe it to be true and complete. Each signed declaration is recorded with the signer’s name, title, the date and time, the IP address used and a cryptographic hash linking it to the records it covers. Signed declarations cannot be edited; if a correction is needed, a new declaration must be created.
8. Miscellaneous
These Terms do not create any partnership, joint venture, employment or agency relationship between you and us, and neither of us may bind the other.
Neither party is responsible for failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond its reasonable control, such as natural disasters, pandemics, war, utility or internet failures, or actions of government authorities.
If we do not enforce a provision of these Terms, we are not waiving our right to enforce it later. If any provision is found unenforceable, it will be limited to the minimum extent necessary and the rest of these Terms will remain in effect. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any subscription or services agreement between your organization and us, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Platform. You agree that we may send you notices electronically, and that electronic notices satisfy any requirement that notice be in writing.
