Terms and Service

Technically, we’re giving you a ‘limited license’ to the site. Here’s what that means. We’re happy for you to access our website and services (known as the services). You’re free to have this access (or limited license) as long as you follow these terms of use and all of our other Terms of Service as they apply to you. We’ll do our best to make sure our services are safe and working as they should, but we can’t guarantee you’ll have access continuously. In fact, we might even stop providing certain features or the services completely, and don’t have to give notice if we do.

1.1 We can stop letting you use our services

We can take away your right to use our services at any time. If you violate our Terms of Use or other parts of our Terms of Service, we can take away your access to Upwork. Officially, this is called terminating your license, and if it happens, we’ll tell you and you must stop using our services immediately.

1.2 We keep the rights to our intellectual property

Using our services doesn’t mean you can use any of our trademarks or other intellectual property, like copyrights and patents. We keep all of our rights to our intellectual property, even though we let you use our services. Our logos and names are our trademarks and registered in certain jurisdictions. Any other product or company names, logos or similar marks and symbols you see on Upwork may be trademarked by our partners or other users like you.
