This is a contract between you (the HSFS Partner) and us (Zaim). It describes how we will work together and other aspects of our business relationship. It is a legal document, so some of the language is necessarily “legalese” but we have tried to make it as readable as possible. These terms are so important though that we cannot have you participate in our HSFS Partner Program unless you agree to them. By participating in our Partner Program, you are agreeing to these terms.
For information on our Partner Program that applies to agency partners, please see .
We periodically update these guidelines and you can find the most recent version .
