Terms of Use

Effective date: May 8, 2026

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of this website and any related public-facing BackChecked web pages that link to these Terms (collectively, the “Site”).

The Site is operated by Widtsoe Screening Enterprises LLC d/b/a BackChecked (“BackChecked,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.

1. Website-Only Terms

These Terms apply only to your use of the public Site.

Use of the Site does not, by itself:

  • make you a customer
  • create a vendor, partner, advisor, or fiduciary relationship
  • create any duty to provide services, support, or continued access
  • form any contract for background screening, platform access, or other services

Any actual products or services we provide are governed only by a separate written agreement, order form, subscription agreement, services agreement, or other express contract entered into by the relevant parties.

If there is any conflict between these Terms and a separate signed or otherwise binding written agreement with us, that separate agreement controls for the subject matter it covers.

2. Changes to the Site and These Terms

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue all or any part of the Site at any time, with or without notice.

We may update these Terms from time to time by posting a revised version on this page. Your continued use of the Site after updated Terms are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

3. Permitted Use

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access and use the Site for lawful business or informational purposes.

You may not:

  • use the Site in violation of any applicable law or regulation
  • interfere with or disrupt the Site, servers, or networks connected to the Site
  • attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Site, related systems, or accounts
  • probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Site or related infrastructure except with our prior written permission
  • use the Site to transmit malicious code, spam, or other harmful material
  • scrape, harvest, extract, or systematically collect Site content or data except as permitted by law or by our prior written consent
  • use automated tools, bots, scripts, agents, or similar means to monitor, mirror, benchmark, index, or copy the Site or its content for unauthorized commercial purposes
  • use the Site in a way that could overload, damage, disable, or impair the Site or other users’ access
  • misrepresent your identity, affiliation, or authority

4. Intellectual Property

The Site and its content, including text, graphics, logos, icons, images, page design, layout, software, code, documentation, and other materials on or made available through the Site (collectively, “Content”), are owned by BackChecked, its affiliates, licensors, or suppliers and are protected by intellectual property and other applicable laws.

Except for the limited right to access and use the Site under these Terms, no license or right is granted to you by implication, estoppel, or otherwise.

You may not, without our prior written consent:

  • copy, reproduce, republish, distribute, publicly display, or publicly perform the Site or Content
  • modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works from the Site or Content
  • reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to extract source code from any part of the Site, except to the extent such restriction is prohibited by law
  • use our names, logos, marks, or branding in a way that suggests endorsement, sponsorship, affiliation, or approval
  • use the Site or Content to develop, train, support, or improve a competing product, dataset, directory, benchmark, or commercial intelligence resource

All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

5. No Professional Advice; No Reliance

The Site is provided for general informational purposes only.

Content on the Site does not constitute legal advice, compliance advice, security advice, tax advice, employment advice, business advice, or any other professional advice. The Site may describe products, services, capabilities, integrations, workflows, or industry topics at a high level, but it is not a substitute for direct evaluation, professional review, or a written agreement.

You are solely responsible for evaluating whether any information on the Site is appropriate for your circumstances. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you use and rely on the Site and its Content entirely at your own risk.

6. No Offer; No Guarantee of Availability

Nothing on the Site constitutes:

  • a binding offer
  • a promise that any service, feature, functionality, or integration will be available
  • a commitment to enter into a business relationship
  • a guarantee that any described product or service is available in your jurisdiction, industry, or use case

Descriptions of services, features, and capabilities are informational only and may change without notice.

Without a separate written agreement, nothing on the Site creates any obligation for us to provide or continue any particular feature, functionality, integration, compatibility, pricing, implementation assistance, support level, service level, roadmap item, release timing, or availability commitment.

The Site may contain links to third-party websites, platforms, or services. We provide those links for convenience only.

We do not control and are not responsible for third-party content, offerings, security, availability, privacy practices, or terms. Accessing third-party sites or services is at your own risk and subject to their terms and policies.

8. User Submissions and Communications

If you send us an email, inquiry, feedback, suggestion, or other communication through the Site or through contact details listed on the Site, you agree that:

  • your communication is not confidential unless we expressly agree otherwise in writing
  • we may use the communication to respond to you and to operate, improve, or protect our business
  • you will not send unlawful, infringing, threatening, defamatory, or malicious material

You remain responsible for the content of any material you submit.

9. Disclaimer of Warranties

We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, current, accurate, complete, or free of viruses or other harmful components, or that defects will be corrected.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BACKCHECKED AND ITS AFFILIATES, OWNERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, SUPPLIERS, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR ENHANCED DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO:

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers or limitations of liability, so portions of this section may not apply to you. In those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

11. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless BackChecked and its affiliates, owners, members, managers, officers, directors, employees, contractors, licensors, suppliers, and agents from and against any claims, demands, actions, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or relating to:

  • any content or information you submit or transmit to us

12. Termination

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the Site, in whole or in part, at any time, with or without notice, for any reason or no reason, including if we believe you have violated these Terms or used the Site in a manner that creates risk for us or others.

Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including without limitation sections concerning intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, governing law, and dispute resolution.

13. Governing Law

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to the Site or these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to conflict of laws principles, except to the extent superseded by applicable federal law.

14. Venue

To the fullest extent permitted by law, any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Site or these Terms must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Arizona, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of those courts.

15. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

16. Waiver

Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that provision or any other provision.

17. Entire Agreement

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and BackChecked regarding your use of the Site, except to the extent a separate written agreement governs a specific relationship or service.
