Join the
House.

Parties

This agreement is between you (“Tuner”) and Ignition House (“the House”). The legal entity name will be added after attorney review.

Confidential information

“Confidential Information” means anything you receive through the House that isn’t public, including client names and contact details, vehicle and build details, maps, tune files, datalogs, pricing, job routing, internal processes, checklists, templates, and House methods.

Your obligations

You will use Confidential Information only to perform work assigned through the House, will not share it with anyone else without written permission, and will protect it with reasonable care. You will not contact House clients to move work away from the House using information you received through it.

Exclusions

This doesn’t cover information that is already public, that you already had, that you develop independently, or that you’re legally required to disclose (with notice to the House where allowed).

Not a non-compete

This is a confidentiality agreement only. It doesn’t stop you from running your own business, working with your own clients, or tuning for anyone else.

Return and duration

When asked, or when you leave the roster, you’ll return or delete Confidential Information. These obligations last for the time you’re on the roster and for three years after; for client maps, logs, and personal data, they last as long as you hold any copy.

Independent contractor

You are an independent contractor, not an employee, partner, or agent of the House. You control how you do your work, supply your own tools, software, and equipment, and are responsible for your own taxes, licenses, and business costs.

Listing and approval

Applying doesn’t guarantee a listing. You won’t be listed until the House approves you, and the House may pause or remove a listing at any time. The House doesn’t promise any amount of work, leads, or income.

Transparency to clients

Clients will always be told who is actually doing their work before it starts. You will present yourself as an independent tuner working through Ignition House, never as the House itself.

Scope

You’ll only take House jobs on aftermarket standalone ECUs that can be calibrated without a paid manufacturer license, and you’ll follow House requirements, including a wideband logged in the ECU before calibration.

Responsibility for your work

You are solely responsible for the quality, safety, and results of your work, and for any mistakes, damage, or injury it causes.

Waiver

To the fullest extent the law allows, you release the House from claims arising from work you perform, including damage to vehicles, engines, parts, or property.

Indemnity

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the House and its members, managers, and agents from claims, losses, and costs (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your work, your breach of these agreements, or your negligence.

Insurance

You will carry and keep your own business liability insurance appropriate for tuning work, and provide proof when asked. The House may require it before listing you.

Terms if accepted

If you’re accepted, the business terms (for example, a monthly bench fee, a percentage of jobs booked through the House, and optional featured placement) will be set out in writing before you’re listed.

Electronic signature

By checking the boxes below, typing your legal name, and signing, you agree to both documents and intend this to be your electronic signature.
