3. User Responsibility for Accuracy of Information

3.1 Certification of Accuracy

By using the Platform, you certify that ALL information you submit, upload, post, or otherwise provide through the Platform is true, accurate, complete, and not misleading. This includes, without limitation, your profile information, employment history, educational credentials, evidence of extraordinary ability, professional achievements, job postings, company information, licensing credentials, and any other representations made through the Platform.

3.2 Sole Responsibility

You are solely and exclusively responsible for the accuracy, completeness, and legality of all information and Content you provide through the Platform. You acknowledge that O1DMatch relies on the accuracy of User-submitted information to operate the Platform and that inaccurate information may adversely affect other Users, the integrity of the Platform, and immigration proceedings.

3.3 No Verification Obligation

O1DMatch is under no obligation to verify, validate, authenticate, or confirm the accuracy or truthfulness of any information submitted by Users. While O1DMatch may, in its sole discretion, take steps to review or screen certain Content, such actions do not create any duty, obligation, or liability on the part of O1DMatch regarding the accuracy of User-submitted information.

3.4 Consequences of Inaccuracy

You acknowledge that submitting false, misleading, or inaccurate information may result in:

  • Immediate termination of your account.
  • Adverse consequences in immigration proceedings, including but not limited to petition denial, revocation, or findings of fraud by USCIS.

  • Liability to other Users or third parties harmed by your inaccurate information.

3.5 Duty to Update

You agree to promptly update your information whenever it changes to ensure continued accuracy.

5. No Guaranteed Outcomes

O1DMATCH DOES NOT GUARANTEE, WARRANT, OR PROMISE ANY PARTICULAR OUTCOME.

This expressly includes, but is not limited to:

  • Approval of any O-1 visa petition or any other immigration benefit by USCIS or any government agency.
  • Employment, job placement, hiring, or any particular employment outcome.
  • The accuracy, reliability, or predictive value of any AI score, assessment, or recommendation.
  • The quality, suitability, or availability of any talent, employer, job opportunity, or attorney listed on the Platform.
  • The acceptance or effectiveness of any interest letter generated through the Platform.
  • Any specific return on investment from use of the Platform or its subscription plans.

5.2 Facilitator, Not Guarantor

O1DMatch is a technology platform that facilitates connections between Users and provides AI-powered tools. Actual outcomes depend entirely on factors beyond O1DMatch's control, including but not limited to USCIS adjudication decisions, employer hiring decisions, individual qualifications, the quality of evidence presented, legal representation, and applicable laws and regulations.

5.3 Acknowledgment of Risk

You acknowledge and accept that immigration processes are inherently uncertain, that USCIS decisions are discretionary, and that use of the Platform does not increase the likelihood of any particular outcome. You assume all risk associated with reliance on the Platform's tools and features.

6. Interest Letters

Non-Binding Nature. Interest letters generated through the Platform are non-binding expressions of interest only.

6.1 An Interest Letter Is NOT:

  • An employment contract or agreement.
  • A job offer, whether conditional or unconditional.
  • A commitment to hire, employ, or engage the talent in any capacity.
  • A visa sponsorship commitment or agreement.
  • A guarantee that the employer will petition for or support an O-1 visa application.
  • A binding obligation of any kind on either the talent or the employer.

6.2 No Obligation Created

Neither the talent nor the employer (nor any agency acting on an employer's behalf) is legally bound by an interest letter issued through the Platform. Either party may decline to proceed at any time, for any reason, without liability to the other party or to O1DMatch.

6.3 USCIS Acceptance Not Guaranteed

O1DMatch generates interest letters formatted to meet general USCIS requirements for O-1 visa petitions. However, O1DMatch does not guarantee that any interest letter will be accepted, deemed sufficient, or given any particular weight by USCIS or any other adjudicating body. The sufficiency of an interest letter is determined solely by USCIS in its discretion.

6.4 User Review Required

All interest letters generated through the Platform should be reviewed by the involved parties and, where appropriate, qualified legal counsel before use in any immigration proceeding.

Important Notice — Section 7

Placement Fees

O1DMatch reserves the right to charge placement fees when talent is successfully matched with an employer through the Platform, resulting in employment, engagement, or a contractual relationship of any kind.

Fee Structure

Placement fees may be structured as a percentage of the talent's first-year total compensation, a flat fee, a combination thereof, or any other arrangement as determined by O1DMatch in its sole discretion.

Acknowledgment

By using the Platform, all Users acknowledge that placement fees may apply to successful matches. Specific fee structures and rates will be communicated before they take effect.

Non-Circumvention

Users shall not circumvent O1DMatch's placement fee structure by completing transactions outside the Platform after an initial introduction was made through it. Violation entitles O1DMatch to the full placement fee plus collection costs.

Survival of Placement Fee Obligations: The obligation to pay placement fees survives termination or expiration of a User's account. If an employment or engagement relationship results from a connection made through the Platform within twelve (12) months of either party's last use of the Platform, the placement fee shall apply.
