Terms of Service

Last updated: 8/20/2026

Contracting entity

The AIRE Assessment™ is operated by CLN — the Construction Leadership Network — a trade organization registered in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, with its principal office at 566 Fawn Lane, Hummelstown, PA 17036, United States ("CLN", "we", "us"). CLN's exact registered legal name, entity type, EIN and a completed W-9 are provided on request for vendor-onboarding and procurement forms: legal@aireassessment.com. Learn more about CLN here.

Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old to take the assessment or create an account. The service is designed for working professionals and post-secondary students and is not directed to children.

Informational use only

The AIRE Assessment™ is provided for informational and educational purposes only. Results do not constitute professional advice, employment recommendations, or technology endorsements.

Employment decisions

AIRE results shall NOT be used as the sole basis for hiring, firing, promotion, or compensation decisions. Employers using this service agree to this restriction upon sign-up and accept sole responsibility for any employment-law obligations that attach to their use, as described in our fair-use policy.

Intellectual property

CLN owns all right, title and interest in the AIRE Assessment™ — including the instrument, item bank, scoring logic, AIRE type taxonomy, report content, software and trademarks. You receive a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the service and to use your own reports internally. You may not copy, resell, sublicense, reverse-engineer, scrape, or use the service or its outputs to build or train a competing instrument or model.

Your data and employer data

Respondents retain ownership of their personal responses and results. An employer or institution that purchases seats owns the account-level data generated by those seats and is the controller of its employees' or students' records for its own purposes. CLN may use de-identified, aggregated data for research and product improvement. See the privacy policy.

Fees, refunds and termination

Fees are charged in USD and are stated at checkout. Refunds are handled as described on our support page. Either party may terminate a subscription or seat agreement for convenience on 30 days' written notice; unused, prepaid and unredeemed seats are refunded pro rata. We may suspend an account immediately for non-payment, abuse, or breach of these terms.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless CLN and its officers, members and contractors from third-party claims arising out of your use of the service in violation of these terms or applicable law — including any employment decision you make, in whole or in part, using AIRE results.

Disclaimer of warranties

The service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, CLN shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, and our total aggregate liability arising from the service is limited to the amounts you paid to CLN in the twelve months preceding the claim.

Dispute resolution and arbitration

The parties will first attempt to resolve any dispute informally by writing to legal@aireassessment.com and allowing 30 days to resolve it. If unresolved, any dispute arising out of or relating to these terms or the service shall be settled by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, seated in Pennsylvania, with judgment enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Class-action waiver. Disputes must be brought in an individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, or representative proceeding, and the arbitrator may not consolidate claims.

Carve-out. Either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in the state or federal courts located in Pennsylvania to protect intellectual property or confidential information, and either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to the arbitration section above, the state and federal courts located in Pennsylvania have exclusive jurisdiction, and you consent to their jurisdiction and venue.

Data retention

Assessment data is auto-deleted after 3 years unless the user opts to keep it. You may request data deletion at any time.

California residents

Your CCPA/CPRA rights — including the rights to know, correct, delete, opt out of sale and sharing, and limit the use of sensitive personal information — are described in full in our privacy policy.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms; material changes will be posted here with a revised "last updated" date and, for account holders, emailed in advance where practicable.
