Forsa Internships

Legal

Terms of use

These terms explain how Forsa works: eligibility, conduct standards for interns and hosts, intellectual property, confidentiality and the limits of what we promise.

The English version of this document is the controlling version.

1. What Forsa is

Forsa is a marketplace and operating layer connecting interns with host organizations for structured, time-bound work projects. Forsa is not an employer, employment agency, or party to any employment relationship between an intern and a host.

2. Eligibility

  • Intern accounts require accurate identity, education and availability information.
  • Host accounts must be created by someone authorised to act for the organization.
  • Accounts found to contain false information may be suspended without notice.

3. Intern obligations

  • Commit to agreed hours and deliverables for the placement duration.
  • Maintain confidentiality over host information and materials.
  • Communicate professionally and escalate concerns through Forsa.

4. Host obligations

  • Provide the supervision, scope and conditions described in the published project.
  • No unpaid overtime, no unagreed scope changes, no unsafe or exploitative conditions.
  • Provide timely feedback and confirm completion honestly.
  • Comply with applicable labour, tax and data protection law.

5. Intellectual property and confidentiality

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, work produced for a host during a placement belongs to that host. Interns may describe their contribution and share approved evidence, but may not publish confidential host materials.

6. Payments and packages

Applying to opportunities is free. Where optional paid packages are offered, they provide guided support and practice only. They confer no advantage in matching, ranking or selection, and no host is obliged to select any intern.

7. Verification records

Forsa records what was scoped, delivered and confirmed. Records reflect host confirmations and are not a guarantee of an intern's future performance.

8. Suspension and removal

We may suspend or remove any account that breaches these terms, misrepresents itself, or places an intern at risk. Published projects from a suspended host are withdrawn.

9. No guarantee

Forsa provides structured work-based learning and employability support. Participation does not guarantee employment, income, investment, or acceptance by a host organization.

10. Governing law and liability

These terms are governed by the laws of the Arab Republic of Egypt, where Forsa is legally established, and the courts of Egypt have jurisdiction over any dispute. Forsa provides structured work-based learning and employability support. Forsa is not an employer, an employment agency or a party to any agreement between an intern and a host organization, and does not guarantee employment, income or acceptance by a host. To the extent permitted by law, Forsa's total liability is limited to the amount paid to Forsa for the service in the twelve months before the claim.
