Terms of service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of theea.index (the "Site") operated by The EA Index ("we," "us," "our"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.

1. Nature of the service

The EA Index is a price comparison and information resource for remote executive assistant services. We provide information about EA providers, including pricing, services offered, and editorial rankings. We are not an employment agency, staffing firm, executive assistant provider, or recruiter of any kind.

The information we provide is for informational and comparison purposes only. Service offerings, pricing, and availability change frequently. We make no representations about whether any service is appropriate for your specific business needs. Always verify current details directly with any service provider before making a purchasing decision.

2. Affiliate relationships and advertising

The EA Index may participate in affiliate marketing programs. When you click links to third-party services on our Site and subsequently make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. These affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial rankings or the order in which services appear on the Site.

Our Editor's Pick placement is determined by editorial score. Ranked list positions are determined by editorial criteria independent of any affiliate relationships.

3. Accuracy of information

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that pricing, availability, and service information on The EA Index is accurate and current. However, EA service pricing changes frequently, providers modify their offerings, and business conditions evolve. We make no warranty that information on The EA Index is accurate, complete, or current at the time you access it.

Always verify current pricing, availability, and program details directly with any service before making a purchase decision. The EA Index is not responsible for discrepancies between information on our Site and the actual offerings of third-party services.

4. Third-party services

The EA Index links to third-party executive assistant services and staffing companies. These are independent companies subject to their own terms of service, privacy policies, and business practices. We do not endorse, guarantee, or assume responsibility for any third-party service, their employees, contractors, the quality of work they provide, or the outcomes of any engagement you enter into with them.

Your relationship with any EA service is solely between you and that service. The EA Index is not a party to any agreement between you and a third-party provider and has no responsibility for the services, products, or support they deliver.

5. No professional relationship

Your use of The EA Index does not create an employment relationship, staffing arrangement, consulting engagement, or any other professional relationship between you and The EA Index. We are a publisher of information, not a service provider.

11. Third-party links

12. Termination

We reserve the right to terminate or suspend your access to the Site at any time, without notice, for any reason, including if we believe you have violated these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Site ceases immediately.

13. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

14. Changes to these terms

We may modify these Terms at any time. We will post the updated Terms on this page with a new effective date. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. Material changes will be communicated via notice on the Site homepage.
