Terms of Use

Agreement to terms

By accessing teclatam.com, you agree to these terms of use. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

What this site is

teclatam is an operator-backed research and advisory site that publishes guides, comparisons, and editorial content about nearshore software development hiring in Latin America. The site is operated in connection with Chimichurri and Lyon Digital.

Informational content only

All content on this site — including country guides, rate benchmarks, engagement model comparisons, and hiring advice — is published for informational and educational purposes only. It does not constitute legal, financial, employment, or professional advice.

Market conditions, developer rates, and regulatory environments change frequently. While we make reasonable efforts to keep content accurate and up to date, we do not guarantee the completeness, reliability, or timeliness of any information published here.

You should consult qualified professionals before making hiring, legal, or financial decisions based on content from this site.

Not a staffing agency

teclatam is not a staffing agency, employer of record, or recruitment firm. We do not employ developers, guarantee placements, or manage engagements. When we facilitate introductions to nearshore providers, we are connecting you with independent third parties. Any engagement you enter into with a provider is between you and that provider, unless a separate direct relationship with Chimichurri is formed.

Referral relationships

teclatam may earn referral fees from some introductions to provider partners. For select engagements, Chimichurri may also propose direct delivery when there is a strong fit. Editorial placement in guides and comparisons is not sold; inclusion is based on research and editorial judgment. See our about page for more detail on our editorial approach and disclosure.

Intellectual property

All original content on this site — including text, graphics, logos, and page design — is the property of teclatam and is protected by applicable copyright laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or republish content from this site without prior written permission, except for brief quotations with attribution.

User submissions

When you submit information through our contact form, you grant us permission to use that information to respond to your inquiry and, where relevant, to facilitate introductions with partner teams as described on the form. We handle your information in accordance with our privacy policy.

Links to third parties

This site may contain links to external websites and resources. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of third-party sites. Linking to an external site does not imply endorsement.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, teclatam and its operator shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of this site or reliance on its content. This includes, without limitation, damages arising from hiring decisions, partner engagements, or business outcomes influenced by content published here.

Disclaimer of warranties

This site is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

Governing law

These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States. Any disputes arising from these terms or your use of this site shall be resolved in the appropriate courts.
