2. Description of Service

Purple Squirrel AI provides a carrier onboarding and compliance platform for freight brokers. The Service includes carrier document collection, driver identity verification via Stripe Identity, background check and MVR processing via Checkr, electronic carrier agreements, FCRA authorization collection, and carrier portal access management.

  • Maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials
  • All activity that occurs under your account
  • Notifying us immediately of any unauthorized access at support@getpurplesquirrel.com

4. Broker Obligations

Freight brokers using the Service agree to:

  • Use the platform only for lawful carrier onboarding and compliance purposes
  • Comply with all applicable laws, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) when ordering background checks and MVR reports
  • Provide required adverse action notices to drivers when required by FCRA
  • Maintain accurate records of carrier agreements and FCRA authorizations

6. Fees and Payment

The Service is billed monthly via ACH bank transfer. Fees are non-refundable except as required by law.

Carrier (owner-operator) plans start at $2,500 per month. Current pricing is always available at www.getpurplesquirrel.com/pricing.

7. FCRA Compliance

Background checks and MVR reports are ordered only after collecting written authorization from the driver as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Brokers are the "end users" under FCRA and are solely responsible for providing pre-adverse and adverse action notices to drivers when required. Purple Squirrel AI is a platform provider and does not make employment decisions.

8. Third-Party Services

The Service integrates with third-party providers including Stripe Identity (identity verification), Checkr (background checks and MVR), Cloudflare (infrastructure and storage), FMCSA (carrier data), and MailChannels (email delivery). Your use of these integrations is also subject to the respective provider's terms and privacy policies. Purple Squirrel AI is not responsible for any acts or omissions of these third parties.

9. Prohibited Uses

You may not use the Service to:

  • Violate any applicable law or regulation
  • Submit false or fraudulent carrier, driver, or company information
  • Attempt to access systems or data you are not authorized to access
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or extract source code from the platform
  • Resell or sublicense access to the Service without written permission

11. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.

12. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, PURPLE SQUIRREL AI SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS OR DATA, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE FEES PAID BY YOU IN THE THREE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.

14. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the United States. Any disputes shall be resolved through binding arbitration rather than in court, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in court for intellectual property violations.
