Last Updated: August
18, 2021
Each time you access
or use SCHINDLERZ’s online and/or mobile services and websites, service,
feature, product, program and element provided by or on behalf of SCHINDLERZ,
and any products, programs, and services described in these Terms of Service,
regardless of where it is downloaded from (collectively the “SCHINDLERZ Apps”),
you are agreeing to enter into a legally binding contract with Par6 and (a) you
represent that you have read and understand the Cookie Policy and Privacy
Policy; and (b) you agree to the terms and conditions of these Terms of Service
(the “Agreement”) then in effect with Par6. This contract applies to SCHINDLERZ.com,
the SCHINDLERZ Apps, and any software, service, feature, product, program and
element provided by or on behalf of SCHINDLERZ on or in connection with such
services or websites (collectively, the “Site”), including any products,
programs, and services described in these Terms of Service. If you do not agree
to any part of these terms, do not access or continue your use of the Site.
Any references to “SCHINDLERZ”
or “we” in this Agreement shall mean Par6.
The Site is made
available for use only by individuals searching for employment openings, or
services or information related to their personal employment or job search
(“Job Seekers”), and by individuals and/or organizations seeking information
related to hiring or human resources or seeking to make available information
regarding employment openings, on their behalf or other’s behalf, including but
not limited to agencies purchasing for multiple parties and employment agencies
(“Employers”). You acknowledge and agree that your license to use the Site is
automatically revoked upon your attempt to use the Site for any other purpose.
If you are accessing or using the Site in your capacity as an employee or other
representative of an Employer, you are agreeing to this Agreement on behalf of
yourself and such Employer, and you represent and warrant that you have the
authority to bind such Employer to this Agreement. You acknowledge that SCHINDLERZ
owns a copyright in the Site, SCHINDLERZ Apps, including in compilations of
information available through any of the foregoing.
We may change this
Agreement by notifying you of such changes by any reasonable means, including
by posting a revised Agreement through the Site. Any such changes will not
apply to any claim brought prior to the date on which we posted the revised
Agreement incorporating such changes, or otherwise notified you of such
changes. Your access to or use of the Site following any changes to this
Agreement will constitute your acceptance of such changes. The “Last Updated”
legends in each section of the terms and conditions indicate when this
Agreement was last changed. We may, at any time and without liability, modify
or discontinue all or part of the Site (including access to the Site via any
third-party links); charge, modify or waive any fees required to use the Site;
or offer opportunities to some or all Site users.
A.
Terms of Service for Job Seekers
1. Job Ads or Job Listings
SCHINDLERZ may make
available Job Ads advertising employment opportunities and other job-related
content, including links to third-party websites (“Job Listings” or “Job Ads”),
through SCHINDLERZ’s search results or otherwise through the Site. Searching
for Job Ads on SCHINDLERZ is free for Job Seekers. Job Ads are created and
provided by third parties over whom SCHINDLERZ exercises no control; you
acknowledge and understand that SCHINDLERZ has no control over the content of
Job Ads, links to or from Job Ads, or any conditions third parties might impose
once a Job Seeker has submitted an application or left the Site. For example,
some of these third parties may attempt to charge Job Seekers a fee to apply to
a particular job, although SCHINDLERZ endeavors not to make such Job Ads
available on the Site. If you leave the SCHINDLERZ Site and choose to enter a
third-party website, you accept any terms and conditions imposed by that
third-party. Employer websites may have conversion trackers or other
functionality provided by SCHINDLERZ, which informs us that an application has
been completed on an Employer site. An Employer who installs such functionality
is required under this Agreement to provide any notice, and obtain any prior
consent, that may be required by applicable law. However, you acknowledge and
agree that SCHINDLERZ has no control over such an Employer or its website. You
agree to SCHINDLERZ’s use of, and receipt of information from, any such
conversion tracker functionality. Except for sponsored, featured or paid
placements, the Job Ads contained on (or linked from) the Site are indexed or
posted in an automated manner. SCHINDLERZ has no obligation to screen any Job
Ads, or to include any Job Ads, in its search results or other listings, and
may exclude or remove any Job Ads from the Site or your search result for any
or no reason. You understand and agree that SCHINDLERZ has no obligation to
present you with any or all Job Ads. We cannot confirm the accuracy or completeness
of any Job Ad or other information submitted by any Employer or other user,
including the identity of such Employer or other user. SCHINDLERZ assumes no
responsibility, and disclaims all liability for the content, accuracy,
completeness, legality, reliability, or availability of any Job Ads, Company
Pages, screener questions and responses, and assessments. Additionally, SCHINDLERZ
may provide search options to narrow down Job Ads search results by job type
categories (i.e. full-time, part-time, etc.), and such categories are created
independently and entirely by SCHINDLERZ, and may not directly or accurately
reflect the content of the Job Ads. SCHINDLERZ may reformat Job Listings so
that you may read them more clearly on a mobile phone. Placement of a Job Ad on
a certain page is not a representation regarding the nature of the role for
legal purposes. While SCHINDLERZ may in some circumstances be compensated by
employers who post Job Ads, helping keep SCHINDLERZ job search free for Job
Seekers, all Job Ads are considered advertising. SCHINDLERZ displays Job Ads
based on a combination of employer bids and relevance, such as search terms,
and other information provided and activities conducted on SCHINDLERZ. You are
not permitted to use SCHINDLERZ’s Site or its content other than for
non-commercial purposes. For purposes of this Section A of the SCHINDLERZ
General Terms of Service, all references to “you” or “your” shall mean you, the
individual or organization accessing this Site in your capacity as a Job
Seeker. SCHINDLERZ may provide functionality to call a telephone number
contained in a Job Ad using the phone app on a mobile device. SCHINDLERZ cannot
guarantee that the extracted phone number is the correct phone number for the
Employer or for the Job Ad you are viewing.
2. Resumes
By uploading or
creating a resume through the Site, you are requesting and authorizing SCHINDLERZ
to make available your resume on the Site and to third parties (such as
Employers and SCHINDLERZ partners or affiliate websites) that SCHINDLERZ
believes may have an interest in your resume. By creating or uploading a resume
on SCHINDLERZ (a “SCHINDLERZ Resume”), SCHINDLERZ may share with you Job Ads
that match the contents of your SCHINDLERZ Resume. SCHINDLERZ may also highlight
to you items in your resume that may match qualifications from the Job Ad, or
highlight to you items that appear in the Job Ad and may be missing from your
resume. These highlights do not mean you are or are not qualified for the job
or that you should or should not apply for it. Applying for such Job Ads does
not guarantee job interviews or hiring. Even where SCHINDLERZ highlights items
or a Job Ad is shared with you, SCHINDLERZ assumes no responsibility, and
disclaims all liability for the content, accuracy, completeness, legality,
reliability, or availability of Job Ads or highlights. SCHINDLERZ assumes no
responsibility and disclaims all liability for the resume or application
information you post, send or receive through the Site. It is your responsibility
to review your resume to ensure it contains the right information or any
information you intend to include or update. If you see any inaccuracy in any
such material, it is your responsibility to correct such information or to
contact SCHINDLERZ to do so. To mitigate fraud, SCHINDLERZ may mask or hide
your contact information, such as your email address, from your resume or
application, for example, and may substitute it with an alias. SCHINDLERZ makes
no promise to you about whether all or part of your contact information will be
masked, and the decision to mask such information is in SCHINDLERZ’s sole
discretion. SCHINDLERZ reserves the right to limit your ability to set your
resume to public, and may set a public resume to private, at any time, to prevent
illegal conduct, for fraud mitigation, or for any other reason in SCHINDLERZ’s
discretion. SCHINDLERZ assumes no responsibility and disclaims all liability
for the resume or application information you post, send or receive through the
Site.
SCHINDLERZ may also
automatically send you recommended jobs via the email address you use to create
a SCHINDLERZ account or apply to a job. SCHINDLERZ may determine what these
recommended jobs are on the basis of a variety of factors, including but not
limited to, any information you input on the Site about yourself (including in
your SCHINDLERZ Resume), searches you run on the Site, jobs you click on, jobs
you apply to, or the materials you provide in a job application to an Employer
through SCHINDLERZ.
3. Applying to Jobs Through SCHINDLERZ
Any resume or
application information that you submit through the Site, including Personal
Data included in a resume, application or responses to screener questions and
assessments (“SCHINDLERZ Apply”), is subject to this Agreement (including
Section C.3.) and to SCHINDLERZ’s Privacy Policy. Once you provide information
to an Employer (whether in the form of a job application, resume, email, or
otherwise), SCHINDLERZ does not have control over the Employer’s use or
disclosure of that information. If you want to request the Employer delete,
modify, or maintain confidence over any such information, you must make such a
request directly to the Employer. (All references on the Site to “Apply Now”,
“Easily Apply”, “Quick Apply”, “Apply from your phone”, or any similar
references mean “SCHINDLERZ Apply.”) SCHINDLERZ may use your application
materials to determine whether you may be interested in a Job Listing, and SCHINDLERZ
may reach out to you about such Job Listing. SCHINDLERZ may store such
information regardless of whether a Job Listing has been closed or is no longer
available on the Site. To maintain the quality of the Site and Services, SCHINDLERZ
in its sole discretion may impose limits on your ability to apply to Job
Listings or to other SCHINDLERZ services. In addition, when you indicate your
interest in a Job Listing through Quick Apply you are sending your resume and
application information to SCHINDLERZ, and you are requesting and authorizing SCHINDLERZ
to make available such application information to the applicable Employer(s)
for such Job Listing(s). When you ask SCHINDLERZ to transmit an application or
a message, including, but not limited to, a signed offer letter, to an Employer
via SCHINDLERZ Apply or SCHINDLERZ’s relay system, or store such application,
you understand that this is without warranty, and that SCHINDLERZ reserves the
right to reformat such application or message.
You acknowledge and
agree that Employers may request that SCHINDLERZ assemble your application
materials, resume, answers to screener questions, assessment responses and
other information you provide to SCHINDLERZ into one document, and you agree
that in doing so, SCHINDLERZ assembles these application materials on your
behalf. When you apply for a job on SCHINDLERZ you agree to SCHINDLERZ’s
performance of automated processing in relation to your application, as such
processing is an essential part of this Agreement. Additionally, you consent to
your application and any responses sent to you by the Employer (including offer
letters) through SCHINDLERZ being processed and analyzed by SCHINDLERZ
according to this Agreement and SCHINDLERZ’s Privacy Policy.
When you apply to a
job using SCHINDLERZ Apply, SCHINDLERZ will attempt to send your application to
the contact information provided to us by an Employer or their Agent. We cannot
guarantee that such messages and applications will be delivered, received,
accessed, read or acted upon. SCHINDLERZ also does not guarantee that any
Employer will receive, be notified about, access, read or respond to any such
resume or other application material, or that there will be no mistakes in the
transmission or storage of the data. However, SCHINDLERZ may alert you when any
of the above events occur. Please note that Job Ads may expire between the time
you submit your application and from the time it is received. SCHINDLERZ has no
responsibility for expired Job Ads or for delivering applications prior to a
Job Ad’s expiration. In addition we cannot vouch for the validity of the
contact information provided to us by Employers. You may contact the Employer
directly to find alternative methods of application if you do not wish to apply
through SCHINDLERZ. By using the SCHINDLERZ Apply system, you fully consent to
the above.
If you require alternative
methods of screening or application you must approach the Employer directly to
request such alternatives as SCHINDLERZ is not responsible for the Employer
application process.
By using SCHINDLERZ,
you agree that SCHINDLERZ is not responsible for the content of the Employer’s
job application, messages, screener questions, skills assessments or their
format or method of delivery, and that SCHINDLERZ does not guarantee receipt of
your application by the Employer, or your receipt of messages from the
Employer. Please note that SCHINDLERZ does not choose the questions asked by
Employers or decide the job qualification criteria of Employers. Some questions
may be labeled as Optional, indicating only that the application may be
submitted to the Employer without providing an answer. SCHINDLERZ cannot
guarantee that the Employer will consider such an application or make a
particular determination with regard to such an application. SCHINDLERZ may
inform Job Seekers that an Employer’s requirement from a job description does
not appear to be present on a resume or application; this information is
presented without warranty and SCHINDLERZ does not guarantee that updating a
resume or application will result in any job offer. SCHINDLERZ does not
guarantee the identity of an Employer or any individuals working for any
Employers, and cautions Job Seekers when applying to jobs. SCHINDLERZ cannot
make any guarantee regarding health and safety measures in an Employer’s hiring
or interviewing process. SCHINDLERZ recommends Job Seekers follow personal
health and safety best practices as recommended by the World Health
Organization or similar institution. SCHINDLERZ does not guarantee the validity
of a job offer and cautions Job Seekers to verify the validity of a job offer
before taking an adverse action regarding their current employment situations.
Job Seekers are solely responsible for verifying the accuracy of any Employer
or job offer.
SCHINDLERZ may use
your application materials (including resumes and responses to screener
questions) and your activity on SCHINDLERZ to determine whether the words of
any Job Seeker’s resume and answers to screener questions match the words of a
Job Listing or Resume query, and vice-versa. You agree and consent that SCHINDLERZ
may differentiate those matching resumes and screener questions from those that
do not match, and present them to Employers as matches or not matches. SCHINDLERZ
may also use such information in order to improve the Site or any other SCHINDLERZ
product or service (including by displaying or otherwise making available
potentially relevant Job Listings and resumes to Job Seekers and Employers). SCHINDLERZ
may also highlight to you items in your prior application materials (including
items in your resume and past responses to screener questions) that may match
qualifications from the Job Listing, or highlight to you items that appear in
the Job Listing that may not match your application materials. These highlights
do not mean you are or are not qualified for the job or that you should or
should not apply for it. Applying for such Job Listings does not guarantee job
interviews or hiring. Even where SCHINDLERZ highlights items or a Job Listing
is shared with you, SCHINDLERZ assumes no responsibility, and disclaims all
liability for the content, accuracy, completeness, legality, reliability, or
availability of Job Listings or highlights.
By using SCHINDLERZ
Apply and answering screener questions, you acknowledge that Employers may have
instructed SCHINDLERZ to send out rejection notices if your answers do not
match the answers sought by the Employer, and you acknowledge that SCHINDLERZ
has no discretion in the transmission of these rejections. When you search for
jobs on the SCHINDLERZ Job Search app and proceed to apply for a job, including
jobs on third-party sites, SCHINDLERZ may suggest information from your SCHINDLERZ
profile to include in your application. It is your responsibility to review
suggestions before accepting them and including them on your application.
4. Communications
When you view, send,
store or receive materials (including Job Listings, resumes, messages,
applications, questions and responses in applications, and any other
information) through or using the Site, SCHINDLERZ may, for example, use such
materials for data analysis, quality control, or to refine the Site or any other
SCHINDLERZ product or service (including to provide better search results and
other listings for Job Seekers and Employers), whether via automated means or
otherwise. When an Employer views, sends, stores or receives materials through
or using the Site, SCHINDLERZ may inform you about such actions. Additionally,
we may also inform you that an Employer has taken other actions with regards to
a Job Ad, your Resume, or your application, such as pausing or closing a Job
Ad, opening your Resume or application, viewing your Resume or application,
responding to your Resume or application, and making a decision with regards to
your application or Job Ad. SCHINDLERZ may inform the Employer about activities
you take on the Site or your use of the Site, for example, whether you are
online on SCHINDLERZ, and you hereby consent to SCHINDLERZ taking such actions.
If you have turned on
browser push notification and wish to turn them off, you may do so by visiting
the settings on your browser.
SCHINDLERZ may offer
you the opportunity to receive a text message interview reminder from SCHINDLERZ
when an Employer has scheduled interviews with you. In such an event you will
enter your phone number on the SCHINDLERZ consent form and by entering your
phone number you are representing and confirming it is your phone number and
that you have the right to accept text messages at the number. SCHINDLERZ will
only send you a text message reminder for such interview and you agree to
accept such text message reminder on your cell phone, including messages sent
by automated telephone dialing system. Please note that since these text
message services depend on the functionality of third-party providers, there
may be technical delays on the part of those providers. We also cannot vouch
for the technical capabilities of any third parties to receive such text
messages.
SCHINDLERZ may also
insert functionality into messages relating to your application allowing you to
place calls directly to third parties. Please note this functionality is provided
solely as a courtesy and that such calls are not placed through or tracked by SCHINDLERZ.
Your standard calling rates with your phone provider will apply.
You may receive
messages, including but not limited to text messages, emails or email
notifications corresponding with your or an Employer’s (in the event you
applied for a job) activity on or use of the Site, SCHINDLERZ Apply, or any
other communications service, product, or feature provided on or through the
Site. In all cases, such messages or notifications are provided solely as a
courtesy, and you should not rely on them. For example, if you accept an
interview request, it is your responsibility to follow up with the employer
separately to ensure they know your response, do not rely on notifications
through SCHINDLERZ. SCHINDLERZ may use your email address to create an alias
email address for your communication, in lieu of displaying your actual email
address to the Employer. Once an Employer has your contact information, you
agree that SCHINDLERZ is not responsible or liable for the manner in which the
Employer uses the information. Should you choose to send an email from a
third-party email client, the person with whom you’re communicating may be able
to see your email address, rather than the alias. SCHINDLERZ disclaims all
warranties with regards to the transmission or storage of such courtesy
notices, does not guarantee their delivery or receipt, and does not guarantee
the date or time at which they may be sent. In the event a message being sent is
intended for a closed account, these messages will not be deliverable.
5. Other Information Provided by SCHINDLERZ
SCHINDLERZ may provide
some information and content to users for informational purposes only. For
example, SCHINDLERZ may provide you with data regarding estimated salaries for
a given Job Listing, number of applies to a Job Listing, responses to certain
screener questions for a Job Listing, or the likelihood that a particular event
will occur such as being selected for an interview. This information provided
by SCHINDLERZ is based on estimates given for informational purposes only and
without warranty, and is subject to change or varying levels of accuracy. SCHINDLERZ
may also include salary estimations on pages other than Job Listings on the
Site. Please note that all salary figures are approximations based upon
multiple third party submissions to SCHINDLERZ, including from SCHINDLERZ
affiliates. These figures are given to SCHINDLERZ users for the purpose of
generalized comparison only. Minimum wage may differ by jurisdiction and you
should consult the employer for actual salary figures.
Similarly,
career-related or hiring-related information provided by SCHINDLERZ is for
informational purposes only, and is in no way to be construed as professional
career counseling or staffing services. You understand that SCHINDLERZ may give
suggestions or information regarding best-practices, however, you understand
that it is ultimately your responsibility to determine how to pursue your job
search or candidate search. You further understand that in providing any such
career or hiring guides, SCHINDLERZ is not acting as a job placement agency or
staffing firm. You also understand that by referring to or using such career or
hiring guides, you are not guaranteed job interviews, job placement, or
assurance of being hired, and you take full responsibility for use of these
services or guides. As a user of the Site, SCHINDLERZ may, from time to time,
send you emails from the career or hiring guides as part of its services to
you. These emails may include but not be limited to, tips on improving your
resume or how to use your resume effectively in the job application process,
commonly asked interview questions, next steps after you have submitted an
application, and how to prepare for a new job after you have been hired.
SCHINDLERZ may offer,
as part of the Services, the opportunity for you to engage with third parties,
sometimes referred to as career coaches or professional writers, to discuss job
search, resume writing, or career strategies, either through the Site or in
person. Regardless of how you interact with them, you acknowledge that these
third parties are not employees of SCHINDLERZ and that SCHINDLERZ is not
responsible for the content of any such discussion. Do not share any
information you consider confidential or personally sensitive with these third
parties. SCHINDLERZ does not guarantee the quality or effectiveness of any
advice, recommendations, or guidance you may receive from these third parties.
You agree that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, SCHINDLERZ will have no
liability arising from any discussion you have with such a third party.
6. Your Job Seeker Data
As a Job Seeker, you
take a variety of actions on our Site and you provide various information. For
example, you search for jobs, and SCHINDLERZ knows and stores the titles of
jobs you search for and click on, where those jobs are located, the general
salary range or experience level of the jobs you view (if indicated on the Job
Listings), the Job Listings you apply to, your amount of activity or time of
most recent activity on SCHINDLERZ, information you provide directly to SCHINDLERZ
including desired salary, or past experience, or information in the “About me”
part of your profile, or any of your other behavior on the Site or information
provided. You know exactly what this data is because you are the person who
provided the information or undertook the activity and the data pertains only
to your activity. If you have a SCHINDLERZ account or a SCHINDLERZ Resume, you
agree that SCHINDLERZ may associate this data with your SCHINDLERZ profile and
use this observed factual data to suggest jobs to you and to suggest you or
your resume to Employers that might be interested in a person who matches your
behavior on SCHINDLERZ. You also agree that SCHINDLERZ may contact you based on
this observed behavior or provide you with information on behalf of Employers
or SCHINDLERZ itself. Please note, the aforementioned actions do not include
information sent to you by a third party, however, SCHINDLERZ may publicly
display the fact that you have recently used the SCHINDLERZ Site to correspond
with a third party. In addition, By uploading or creating a resume through the
Site, SCHINDLERZ may share all of the aforementioned information about yourself
with third-party Employers or SCHINDLERZ partners or affiliate websites. If you
do not wish to share such information, you may set your Resume to private.
7. Screening Tools
SCHINDLERZ may make
screening tools available to Employers for Employer use in the application
process, including screener questions, phone screen tools and assessments. SCHINDLERZ
is licensing these tools for Employers’ use as determined by Employers. As a
Job Seeker you agree that the Employer has made the determination to use these
tools as part of its application process, and the questions asked are solely
determined by the Employer, and are not being asked by SCHINDLERZ. The Employer
is the sole party to determine which answers will qualify a candidate and is
solely responsible for the use of the screening tool including any results
which are considered to have a “disparate impact”. SCHINDLERZ does not warrant
that the method of delivery of these questions is compliant with the Americans
with Disabilities Act or any equivalent or similar law.
8. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
This Agreement and any
dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or related in any
way to the Site (“Dispute”) will be governed as to all matters, including, but
not limited to the validity, construction and performance of this Agreement, by
and under the laws of the State of California, United States of America, if you
are located in the United States, or the laws of the Republic of Ireland, if
you are located elsewhere, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles
thereof. Any and all actions, lawsuits, or other legal proceedings related to
such Dispute shall be filed only in courts located in Orange County, California,
U.S.A., if you are located in the United States, or Dublin, Ireland, if you are
located elsewhere. Each of the Parties hereby consent to the exclusive personal
jurisdiction of the federal or state courts located in Orange County, California,
U.S.A., if you are located in the United States of America, or Dublin, Ireland,
if you are located elsewhere.
You also hereby waive
any right to a jury trial in connection with any action or litigation in any
way arising out of or related to your use of the Site or these terms of
service, if you are located in the United States.
9. Class Action Waiver
By using the Site and
in return for the services offered by SCHINDLERZ, you acknowledge that SCHINDLERZ
can only offer you these services under the terms and conditions as presented
herein. As partial consideration for your use of the Site and these services,
you agree not to sue SCHINDLERZ as a class plaintiff or class representative,
join as a class member, or participate as an adverse party in any way in a
class-action lawsuit against SCHINDLERZ regarding your use of the Site.
Additionally, as a Job Seeker, your use of job search on the Site is at no
charge and you acknowledge that part of the price you are paying to use this
Site is your acceptance of these terms of service including this Class Action
Waiver. If you do not agree to any part of these terms, do not continue your
use of the Site. Nothing in this paragraph, however, limits your rights to
bring a lawsuit as an individual plaintiff, including in small claims court,
subject to Section 8 above.
Terms
of Service for Employers
The following terms
and conditions apply to all Employers and other users who access or use the
Site as intended for individuals and/or organizations seeking to make available
information regarding employment openings, on their behalf or other’s behalf,
including but not limited to agencies purchasing for multiple parties, or otherwise
indicate their acceptance to this Agreement. For purposes of this Section B of
the SCHINDLERZ General Terms of Service, all references to “you” or “your”
shall mean you, the individual or organization accessing this Site in your
capacity as an Employer.
1. Employer Accounts
When you create a SCHINDLERZ
account or post job listings advertising employment opportunities and other
job-related contents, including links to third-party websites (“Job Listings”
or “Job Ads”) on the Site, whether as part of the SCHINDLERZ Ads Program or
otherwise, you agree that this Agreement, the terms associated with any SCHINDLERZ
service you are using, and all of SCHINDLERZ’s policies, including the SCHINDLERZ
Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, apply to you.
As an Employer, your
account is for business use and not for personal use. SCHINDLERZ is not
responsible for and disclaims all liability if your email is used improperly or
falsely by a third party. By registering for a SCHINDLERZ account, you agree to
receive mandatory email updates regarding anomalous activity to your SCHINDLERZ
account. If you attempt to send an email from a name or email address that is
not true, accurate, current or complete, we reserve the right to drop such
email, and attempting to send such email is a violation of our terms.
If you are an Admin
adding a user to a Role or several Roles, you represent to SCHINDLERZ that you
are an authorized representative of this account and that you have the
authority to allow this data and access to be shared. You further agree to
indemnify and hold harmless SCHINDLERZ from any allegations, claims, actions,
suits, demands, damages, liabilities, obligations, losses, settlements,
judgments, costs and expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees and
costs) that result from the sharing of this data, access to your account, and
any purchases made under your account. You agree that SCHINDLERZ assumes no
liability in regards to the accuracy of the statements above and that you are
fully responsible for said accuracy. When using a Linked Account, any users
with access to certain Roles may have access to any or all account information,
including but not limited to: communications and actions of all other users and
applicants within the Linked Account, resume contacts, and billing information,
and you consent to such access. When using a Linked Account, any users with
access to certain Roles may also have the ability to purchase SCHINDLERZ
products under your account, and you agree that you are responsible for the
payment of all such purchases made.
If your SCHINDLERZ
employer account has a credit card on file to pay for one SCHINDLERZ product or
service, SCHINDLERZ may charge that card for any additional products or
services you order
If you purchase
services from SCHINDLERZ, then you shall be charged if, and as, indicated by
the Site. Details regarding payment plans are available on the Site. You are
responsible for paying all taxes, government charges, and reasonable expenses
and attorney fees SCHINDLERZ incurs in collecting late amounts. You waive all
claims relating to charges unless claimed within 60 days after the charge (this
does not affect your credit card issuer rights). PAYMENTS ARE NONREFUNDABLE AND
THERE ARE NO REFUNDS OR CREDITS FOR PARTIALLY USED PERIODIC ALLOTMENTS.
Following any cancellation, however, you will continue to have access to the
service through the end of your current billing period. Refunds (if any) are at
the absolute discretion of SCHINDLERZ and only in the form of credit for SCHINDLERZ
services. You acknowledge and agree that any credit card and related billing
and payment information that you provide to SCHINDLERZ may be shared by SCHINDLERZ
with companies who work on SCHINDLERZ’s behalf (such as payment processors
and/or credit agencies) solely for the purposes of checking credit, effecting
payment to SCHINDLERZ and servicing your account. SCHINDLERZ may also provide
information in response to valid legal process, such as subpoenas, search
warrants and court orders, or to establish or exercise its legal rights or
defend against legal claims. SCHINDLERZ shall not be liable for any use or
disclosure of such information by such third parties. All withholding tax
remittances to the government are your sole responsibility and SCHINDLERZ shall
have no liability whatsoever therefore. Invoices may be provided to you via
electronic mail, unless otherwise specified by SCHINDLERZ. If you purchase a
subscription plan, you acknowledge and agree that SCHINDLERZ will charge you on
a recurring basis until you cancel your subscription plan and such cancellation
goes into effect, which may not be until the next billing cycle. The applicable
billing cycle (e.g. monthly or annual, etc.) will depend upon the terms agreed
upon.
2. Employer Services Including SCHINDLERZ Apply
You also agree that,
as a service to Job Seekers, SCHINDLERZ may activate its SCHINDLERZ Apply relay
function for use in connection with your Job Listings, and that any Job Seekers
who wish to indicate an interest in such Job Listing may only do so through SCHINDLERZ
Apply, and that SCHINDLERZ will send applications to the email address you
provide us with. You agree that by using such candidate management tools, you
are instructing SCHINDLERZ to assemble the candidate’s application materials,
resume, answers to screener questions, assessment responses and other
information you provide to SCHINDLERZ into one document. You further agree that
SCHINDLERZ is not responsible for maintaining or storing such application
materials, and that you are responsible for your own compliance with any
applicable record retention requirements. By using these tools, you are
providing information to SCHINDLERZ and requesting and authorizing us to make
available such information to the applicable Job Seeker. Additionally, you
consent to any information shared through SCHINDLERZ being processed and
analyzed by SCHINDLERZ according to this Agreement and SCHINDLERZ’s Privacy
Policy. SCHINDLERZ may store such information regardless of whether a job
vacancy has been filled.
You are responsible
for the contents of your emails, application form, screener questions or their
format, any Job Listings that you post, and any messages that you send through SCHINDLERZ
Apply or otherwise, and agree that SCHINDLERZ is not responsible for such
content and disclaims all liability for such content, including as to whether
such content is legal. You agree that SCHINDLERZ may reject or remove any Job
Listing, any part of any Company Page, or any questions for Job Seekers for any
or no reason. SCHINDLERZ further does not guarantee delivery, your receipt of
the Job Seeker’s emails or application materials, or that there will be no
mistakes in the transmission or storage of the data. In the event a message
being sent is intended for a closed account, these messages will not be
deliverable. If you do not feel comfortable sending a message, including but
not limited to an offer letter, to a Job Seeker through SCHINDLERZ’s relay functions,
do not use the SCHINDLERZ functions and please contact the Job Seeker via the
personal information provided in such Job Seeker’s resume or application or by
whatever method you so choose. When using the SCHINDLERZ Apply function, SCHINDLERZ
will attempt to send applications to the contact information provided to SCHINDLERZ
by you, however, SCHINDLERZ has no ability to verify the contact information
provided by you. In the event you provide incorrect contact information, it
shall be your responsibility to correct, appropriately respond, or take any
steps necessary to protect the privacy of such Job Seekers, and you indemnify SCHINDLERZ
for any damages resulting therefrom.
When you use the SCHINDLERZ
Apply function for your Job Listings, you acknowledge and agree that SCHINDLERZ
may add functions into the corresponding SCHINDLERZ Apply emails. In addition, SCHINDLERZ
may, on your behalf, send out reminder emails to Job Seekers you wish to
interview. SCHINDLERZ may also send emails to Job Seekers on your behalf
indicating that your Job Listing is potentially a match for the Job Seeker’s
resume. When you use screener questions, you may be given the option to
instruct SCHINDLERZ to send out rejection notices if the Job Seeker has not
answered the questions in the manner set forth in the online instruction. If
you choose such option, you agree you are instructing us to send out rejection
notices to such candidates and set them to rejected in your candidate
dashboard. You further acknowledge that SCHINDLERZ has no discretion in the
transmission or storage of these or all other rejection notifications (which is
purely mechanical), that transmission or storage is not guaranteed, and that
the Job Seeker may not have answered the screener questions accurately. When
you use SCHINDLERZ’s candidate management tools, you may be given the option to
send automatic rejection notices to candidates whose status you set to
“rejected”. If you choose such option, you acknowledge that SCHINDLERZ has no
discretion in the transmission or storage of rejection notices.
You agree that SCHINDLERZ
may take action to try to identify and reduce spam applications, and that one
method of doing so may include imposing a cover letter requirement for such
applicants. SCHINDLERZ does not verify the identity of any Job Seekers who
apply to your job listing, nor does SCHINDLERZ know a Job Seeker’s motivation
for applying to your job listing, and thus provides no guarantee as to the Job
Seeker’s qualifications or interest in your job listing. You agree that SCHINDLERZ
Apply and SCHINDLERZ’s relay functions are presented to you without warranty
and SCHINDLERZ assumes no responsibility for the communications between you and
the Job Seeker, which communications are yours’ and the Job Seekers’ sole
responsibility.
You shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless SCHINDLERZ, its agents, affiliates, and licensors from
any third-party claim or liability (including without limitation reasonable
legal fees) arising out of any Company Page created or claimed by you, or any
Job Listing or screener questions (or answers thereto) posted by you, or any
message sent by you (including any questions for Job Seekers contained in any
of the foregoing). SCHINDLERZ may make Job Ad analytics data available on a Company
Page or elsewhere on the Site, and may provide analytics data regarding your
Employer account to anyone at your company at SCHINDLERZ’s discretion. To the
extent permitted by law, if you have an unpaid or outstanding invoice or
account balance for any SCHINDLERZ product, SCHINDLERZ reserves the right to
suspend or terminate your use of that SCHINDLERZ product as well as any other SCHINDLERZ
product, including but not limited to those SCHINDLERZ products where you do
not have an unpaid invoice or account balance. SCHINDLERZ may elect to apply
(i) penalties for late payment as per contemporaneous US Federal Reserve
interest rates plus 10% or the maximum interest permitted by law, whichever is
lower and (ii) a statutory lump-sum indemnity for recovery cost, if provided
for under applicable laws, and (iii) any reasonable expenses and attorney fees SCHINDLERZ
incurs collecting such late payments.
When you view, send,
store or receive materials (including Job Listings, resumes, and messages)
through or using the Site, SCHINDLERZ may, for example, use such materials for
data analysis, quality control, or to refine the Site or any other SCHINDLERZ
product or service (including to provide better search results and other
listings for Job Seekers and Employers), whether via automated means or
otherwise. When you view, send, store or receive materials through or using the
Site or when you simply use or visit the Site, SCHINDLERZ may inform a Job
Seeker that you have taken an action, for example, with regards to a Job Ad,
Job Seeker’s Resume, or application such as pausing or closing a Job Ad,
opening the Resume or application, viewing the Resume or application,
responding to the Resume or application, and making a decision with regards to
the application or Job Ad, and you hereby consent to SCHINDLERZ taking such
actions.
SCHINDLERZ, in its
sole discretion, may add labels or badges to Employer names or Job Ads, such
as, “Responsive Employer” or “Active Employer”. Employers may also request that
SCHINDLERZ add such labels. SCHINDLERZ shall determine the method by which such
labels or badges are determined or which Employers qualify. The lack of a label
or badge may indicate that SCHINDLERZ does not have sufficient data to
determine if an Employer qualifies.
3. Job Match
SCHINDLERZ may use Job
Seekers’ application materials (including resumes and responses to screener
questions) and the recency of their activity on SCHINDLERZ to determine whether
the words of their resume and answers to screener questions match the words of
your Job Listing or Resume query, and vice-versa. You further agree and consent
that SCHINDLERZ may differentiate those matching resumes and screener questions
from those that do not match, and present them to you as matches or not
matches. SCHINDLERZ may also use such information in order to improve the Site
or any other SCHINDLERZ product or service (including by displaying or
otherwise making available potentially relevant Job Listings and resumes to Job
Seekers and Employers).
4. Salary Information Provided by SCHINDLERZ
SCHINDLERZ may provide
some information and content to users for informational purposes only. For
example, SCHINDLERZ may provide Job Seekers with data regarding estimated
salaries for a given Job Listing, number of applies to a Job Listing, responses
to certain screener questions for a Job listing, or provide you with estimated
applies to your Job Listing. All such figures provided by SCHINDLERZ are
estimates given for informational purposes only, and they are subject to change
or varying levels of accuracy. With respect to information regarding estimated
applies, if you are participating in the SCHINDLERZ Ads Program, please note
that this is not the information you are purchasing from SCHINDLERZ and you are
not charged per apply. SCHINDLERZ may also include salary estimations on pages
other than Job Listings on the Site. Please note that all salary figures are
approximations based upon multiple third-party submissions to SCHINDLERZ,
including from SCHINDLERZ affiliates. These figures are given to SCHINDLERZ
users for the purpose of generalized comparison only. Minimum wage may differ
by jurisdiction and you should consult the employer for actual salary figures. SCHINDLERZ
may also provide data regarding impressions in relation to your job ad. Such
figures are provided for informational purposes only, are subject to change at
any time, and SCHINDLERZ does not guarantee their accuracy. SCHINDLERZ reserves
the right to change the method of measuring such figures at any time.
5. Screening Tools
SCHINDLERZ may make
available to you screening tools for your use during the application process,
including screener questions. SCHINDLERZ is licensing these tools to you for
your use as you determine. By using any screening product, made available to
you by SCHINDLERZ, you agree that you have made the determination to use these
tools as part of your application process, and the substantive questions you
ask or choose are solely determined by you, and are not being asked by SCHINDLERZ.
You are the sole party to determine which answers will qualify a candidate. You
are solely responsible for the use of the screening tool including any results
which are considered to have a “disparate impact”. You further acknowledge that
you are responsible for offering alternative methods of screening, if so
required by the Americans with Disabilities Act or any other equivalent or
similar law. SCHINDLERZ does not warrant that the method of delivery of these
questions is compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act or any
equivalent or similar law. You agree to indemnify SCHINDLERZ for any and all claims
arising out of your use of a Screening Tool, including any claims that any
screening tool does not comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act or
similar or equivalent law, or that such Screening Tool results in a “disparate
impact”.
6. Communication through SCHINDLERZ
You may receive
messages, emails or email notifications corresponding with your or a Job
Seeker’s activity on or use of the Site SCHINDLERZ Apply, or any other
communications service, product, or feature provided on or through the Site. In
all cases, such messages or notifications are provided solely as a courtesy,
and you should not rely on them. For example, if you wish to interview a Job
Seeker, it is your responsibility to follow up with the Job Seeker separately
to ensure they know about the interview; do not rely on notifications through SCHINDLERZ.
SCHINDLERZ may use your email address to create an alias email address for your
communication, in lieu of displaying your actual email address to the Job
Seeker. Once a Job Seeker has your contact information, you agree that SCHINDLERZ
is not responsible or liable for the manner in which the Employer uses the
information. Should you choose to send an email from a third party email
client, the person with whom you’re communicating may be able to see your email
address, rather than the alias. SCHINDLERZ disclaims all warranties with
regards to the transmission or storage of such courtesy notices, does not
guarantee their delivery or receipt, and does not guarantee the date or time at
which they may be sent. In the event a message being sent is intended for a
closed account, these messages will not be deliverable.
Specifically, if you
post a Job Listing directly on SCHINDLERZ, applications are sent only to your SCHINDLERZ
dashboard; any other notifications you may receive are provided solely as a
courtesy to you. For example, you may not receive application email
notifications if a Job Seeker has not answered screener questions correctly,
although these applications will be sent to your SCHINDLERZ dashboard.
7. Company Pages
When you post a Job Ad
directly on SCHINDLERZ or submit a request for a landing page on SCHINDLERZ, SCHINDLERZ
may automatically generate for you a Company Page. You understand that SCHINDLERZ
may display publicly available information about your company on the Company
Page, in accordance with applicable law. Company Pages allow User Content (as
defined below) to be posted by individuals (through a SCHINDLERZ affiliate
website) that may not be affiliated with the Company that owns the Company
Page, including but not limited to the answers to Q&A questions on Company
Pages. Additionally, SCHINDLERZ may include all of your Job Ads posted on the
Site on your Company Page, including but not limited to those posted directly
on SCHINDLERZ as well as those indexed by SCHINDLERZ. You agree that you are
solely responsible for any content you edit or put on a Company Page, whether
generated by or for you, including but not limited to photograph(s) or videos
you provide, and third-party websites reachable from content you put on a
Company Page.
8. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
This Agreement and any
Dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or related in any
way to the Site will be governed as to all matters, including, but not limited
to the validity, construction and performance of this Agreement, by and under the
laws of the State of California, if you are located in the United States; Any
and all actions, lawsuits, or other legal proceedings related to such Dispute
shall be filed only in courts located in Orange County, California, U.S.A., if
you are located in the United States; Each of the Parties hereby consent to the
exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts located in: Orange County, California,
U.S.A., if you are located in the United States or you are located elsewhere.
You agree to waive
your right to file a pre-suit discovery proceeding seeking a user’s identifying
information from SCHINDLERZ. If you intend to propound discovery seeking user
information from SCHINDLERZ, you agree to do so pursuant to a valid federal, California
or California domesticated request, addressed to and properly served at our
registered agent in California. You further agree to submit to the personal
jurisdiction of the appropriate California state or federal courts for such
discovery proceedings.
You also hereby waive
any right to a jury trial in connection with any action or litigation in any
way arising out of or related to your use of the Site or these terms of
service, if you are located in the United States.
10. Class Action Waiver
By using the Site and
in return for the services offered by SCHINDLERZ, you acknowledge that SCHINDLERZ
can only offer you these services under the terms and conditions as presented
herein. As partial consideration for your use of the Site and these services,
you agree not to sue SCHINDLERZ as a class plaintiff or class representative,
join as a class member, or participate as an adverse party in any way in a
class-action lawsuit against SCHINDLERZ regarding your use of the Site. If you
do not agree to any part of these terms, do not continue your use of the Site.
Nothing in this paragraph, however, limits your rights to bring a lawsuit as an
individual plaintiff, including in small claims court, subject to Section 8
above.
Terms
of Service for All Users
The following terms
and conditions apply to all Job Seekers, Employers, and other users who access
or use the Site (whether directly or via any API), or otherwise indicate their
acceptance to this Agreement.
1. Accessing External Sites
The Site contains
links to other sites on the Internet which are owned and/or operated by
third-party vendors and other third parties (the “External Sites” or “External
Site”). You acknowledge that SCHINDLERZ is not responsible or liable for any
such third parties or for the availability of, or the materials located on or
through any External Sites. You should contact the site administrator or
webmaster for the applicable External Site if you have any concerns regarding
such links or the materials located on an External Site.
In addition, SCHINDLERZ
may provide you with links to third party sites that offer you services for
your use or benefit. We may stop offering any such third party sites or
services at any time. If you choose to use such third party sites or services,
you enter into an agreement with such third party alone at your own risk. When
entering into an agreement with such parties, you are giving them your data
directly and your rights and their obligations are determined by their privacy
policies and terms of service. We are not responsible for any content or
services provided by these third parties, and disclaim all liability from
anything that may occur when you utilize such third parties. We are
additionally not responsible for any payment that may be asked of you by such
third party. You may be notified on the site that these are third-party sites
and services, and not SCHINDLERZ.
For example, SCHINDLERZ
may provide you with access to a link on SCHINDLERZ to background check
services offered and performed by a third party (each a “Third-Party Background
Check Service”). This service may be offered in the form of permitting a
Jobseeker to request their own background check or permitting an Employer to
request a background check of a Jobseeker. If you choose to use this link and
these services, you are contracting directly with the Third-Party Background
Check Service, and SCHINDLERZ is not a party to this contract. Please note (and
you acknowledge) that SCHINDLERZ cannot and does not assemble, access, view,
analyze, manipulate, alter, evaluate or store the background check reports
provided by any Third-Party Background Check Service to you or to any other SCHINDLERZ
user. SCHINDLERZ operates solely as a technical conduit, allowing the
transmission of background checks sent by a Third-Party Background Check
Service to you. Further, you agree to fully indemnify and defend SCHINDLERZ for
any claims arising out of your use of a Third-Party Background Check Service’s
services or a background check provided to you by a Third-Party Background
Check Service.
Pages on the Site may
embed content and information provided by third-party APIs, which is subject to
additional terms and conditions imposed by those third parties. For example,
the Site may include Google Maps features and content, which is subject to the
current versions of: (1) the Google Maps/Google Earth
Additional Terms of Service; and (2) the Google Privacy Policy.
Information on Company Pages includes publicly available information and/or
information provided by the respective company and/or may come from third
parties.
Please note that while
this Agreement describes SCHINDLERZ’s services generally, services may differ
by availability, and you should check the Site in your location to see which
services are available to you. For example, while some parts of this Agreement
describe matching services, SCHINDLERZ does not offer any matching services in
Japan.
2. Using our Site
When you use the Site,
you agree to SCHINDLERZ knowing, processing, analyzing, and recording any and
all activities you take on the Site and any and all interactions and
communications you have with, on, or through the Site, including, but not
limited to, knowing, processing, analyzing, and recording which areas of the
Site you visit (including without limitation URLs), which content you view,
which info you input, whether and where you click, scroll, hover-over,
mouseover, or otherwise interact with or communicate with or through the Site,
the timing of each activity, and time spent on each activity. You agree that SCHINDLERZ
may use third-party vendors to create, store, process, analyze, and record any
and all such interactions, activities, and communications made with, on, or
through our Site. The Site cannot work as SCHINDLERZ intends it to work unless SCHINDLERZ
undertakes such activities. If you do not want your actions to be processed,
analyzed, or recorded this way, do not use the Site.
Use of any automated
system or software, whether operated by a third party or otherwise, to extract
data from the Site (such as screen scraping or crawling) is prohibited. SCHINDLERZ
reserves the right to take such action as it considers necessary, including
issuing legal proceedings without further notice, in relation to any
unauthorized use of the Site. If you wish to make commercial use of the Site,
if you wish to make use of the Site in any capacity other than that of a
Jobseeker or Employer, or if you wish to purchase SCHINDLERZ services that
utilize the Site, you must have a prior written agreement with SCHINDLERZ to do
so, or have accepted SCHINDLERZ’s online terms of service. We reserve the right
at all times (but will not have any obligation) to terminate users, and reclaim
usernames or URLs, for any reason.
3. User Content
Some parts of the
Site, such as message boards and forums or job posting pages, may allow users
to post content like Job Listings, resumes, information, text, images, audio,
video, messages, and other materials (any such materials that a user submits,
posts, displays, or otherwise makes available on or through the Site, or any
materials that a user submits to SCHINDLERZ, including where it is stated that
such materials may be posted on the Site or a third-party website, including,
but not limited to, mobile apps, are referred to herein as “User Content”).
Such functionality is designed to help users obtain career and company
information, to let users know of jobs, to provide information about potential
job candidates, and facilitate other communication. User Content is provided by
third-party contributors, many of whom may use anonymous screen names. User
Content may be inaccurate, incomplete, misleading or deceptive. For example,
the Site makes available Company Pages, which allow User Content to be posted
on SCHINDLERZ affiliate websites by individuals that may not be affiliated with
the Company who owns the Company Page, including but not limited to the answers
to Q&A questions on Company Pages. SCHINDLERZ does not endorse and is not
responsible for any User Content, including any opinion, advice, information,
or statement contained therein. Some elements of SCHINDLERZ job search results
pages may appear to be content produced by SCHINDLERZ, but are actually a
reproduction of user-generated search queries. Job Ads or other User Content
may be reformatted or include words such as “Powered by Indeed”. Such content
retains its status as User Content despite reformatting or addition of “Powered
by Indeed” or a similar phrase. You acknowledge that by accessing the Site, you
may come into contact with content (including User Content) that you find
harmful, offensive, threatening, indecent or objectionable, including, but not
limited to, explicit language and other potentially offensive material, and you
acknowledge that SCHINDLERZ shall have no liability with respect to such
content.
You must not post any
User Content that is unlawful, fraudulent, discriminatory, threatening,
abusive, libelous, defamatory, obscene or otherwise objectionable, or that
contains sexual, ethnic, racial or other discriminating slurs, or that contains
no relevant or constructive content. You must also not post any User Content
that contains proprietary information, trade secrets, confidential information,
advertisements (other than Job Advertisements permitted by this Agreement),
solicitations, chain letters, pyramid schemes, investment opportunities, or
other unsolicited commercial communication (except as otherwise expressly
permitted by us in writing), or encourages or causes spamming or flooding.
You are prohibited
from posting any User Content containing official identification information
(whether your own or of another person), such as social security number,
passport number, national identification number, insurance number, driver’s
license number, immigration number, or any other similar number, code, or
identifier. Posting such identification information may lead to identity theft
and other adverse consequences. SCHINDLERZ may remove any such identification
information, but does not undertake any obligation to do so, and has no
responsibility and disclaims all liability for any posting of such
identification information. SCHINDLERZ reserves the right to change the display
of resume on its Site, including, but not limited to, hiding fields,
rearranging its format, and changing visual elements.
Although SCHINDLERZ
has no obligation to do so, SCHINDLERZ may monitor User Content, and reserves
the right to delete any User Content or portion thereof that, in SCHINDLERZ’s
sole discretion, violates the above rules, including any User Content that is
unrelated to the specific portion of the Site on which it is posted, or that is
an advertisement, recruiting or other commercial message (other than Job
Advertisements permitted by this Agreement), or that SCHINDLERZ deems in its
sole discretion to be inappropriate. SCHINDLERZ may limit your use of the Site,
including but not limited to, your ability to contact other Employers or Job
Seekers. If you believe that any User Content violates this Agreement or our
policies, please contact SCHINDLERZ immediately
so that we may have the opportunity to consider its removal. You acknowledge
and agree that SCHINDLERZ does not have any obligation to host or remove any
User Content, and i) the interpretation of whether any User Content violates
any SCHINDLERZ policy, ii) whether to publish or to withdraw from publication
any User Content, and iii) whether to exclude any material that any party seeks
to post on SCHINDLERZ, will always remain within the sole discretion of SCHINDLERZ.
You agree that SCHINDLERZ has no liability to you or anyone else arising from
its editorial decisions. You acknowledge and agree that SCHINDLERZ is an
interactive computer service and does not have any obligation to screen any
User Content, or to include any User Content (including without limitation Job
Ads) in its search results or other listings, and may exclude or remove any
User Content from publication for any or no reason.
SCHINDLERZ reserves
the right to disclose all User Content and other relevant information, and the
circumstances surrounding their transmission, to any third party in connection
with operating the Site; to protect itself, its affiliates, its partners and
its visitors; and to comply with legal obligations or governmental requests.
This means, for example, that SCHINDLERZ may honor subpoenas, search warrants,
law enforcement or court-mandated requests to reveal a user’s electronic
address and identity, or other properly requested information. When you post on
SCHINDLERZ confidentially or otherwise (e.g. anonymous Company Reviews or a
confidential Job Ad), your identity may be discoverable by legal request,
including, but not limited to, requests from the government or law enforcement.
Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, SCHINDLERZ reserves the right (but is under no
obligation) to remove any Job Listing that directly or indirectly discriminates
against Job Seekers. Direct discrimination means, for example, that a Job
Listing specifically makes clear that only Job Seekers matching a certain
criteria are wanted, thereby excluding others because of, for example, their
gender, race, age or disability. Indirect discrimination means, for example,
that a Job Listing implicitly excludes certain classes of Job Seekers by making
it impossible for them to qualify for the job requirements. You understand and
agree that it is your responsibility to refrain from posting any Job Listing
that directly or indirectly discriminate against Job Seekers or otherwise
violate applicable law.
Please note: Section
230 of the U.S. Communications Decency Act provides that:
(1) Treatment of
publisher or speaker
No provider or user of
an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of
any information provided by another information content provider.
(2) Civil liability
No provider or user of
an interactive computer service shall be held liable on account of-
(A) any action
voluntarily taken in good faith to restrict access to or availability of
material that the provider or user considers to be obscene, lewd, lascivious,
filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable, whether or
not such material is constitutionally protected; or
(B) any action taken
to enable or make available to information content providers or others the
technical means to restrict access to material described in paragraph (1).
4. License to User Content and Feedback
Only to the extent
permitted by law, you grant SCHINDLERZ a nonexclusive, worldwide, perpetual,
(revocable only as described below), fully paid, royalty-free, transferable,
sublicensable (through multiple layers of sub-licensees) right and license to
make, use, sell, sublicense, reproduce, distribute, perform, display, prepare
derivative works from and otherwise exploit all User Content you post or
submit, for the purpose of publishing material on the SCHINDLERZ website or its
publishers, maintaining the SCHINDLERZ website and promoting SCHINDLERZ and
such User Content without restriction. You understand that no compensation in
any form shall be due or payable to you in connection with SCHINDLERZ’s
exercise of its rights under the license granted under this Section. To the
extent any compensation may be due under applicable law as a result of, or in
connection with, SCHINDLERZ’s exercise of these rights, you hereby waive any
and all rights to such compensation.
Furthermore, you grant
to SCHINDLERZ, its affiliates, and sublicensees a license to use your name,
user name, and/or trademarks and logos in connection with (i) any such User
Content, (ii) any SCHINDLERZ marketing materials containing or incorporating
such User Content, or (iii) any actions by SCHINDLERZ to promote or publicize
such User Content (e.g. Job Listings), including without limitation on
third-party websites and the use of keywords in third-party internet search
engines. To any extent that such User Content contains your name, likeness,
voice or image, you hereby irrevocably waive all legal and equitable rights
relating to claims for violation of your rights of publicity (or any similar
claims) arising directly or indirectly from SCHINDLERZ’s exercise of its rights
pursuant to the license granted hereunder.
You represent and
warrant that: (i) you own the User Content that you submit, post, display, or
otherwise make available on or through the Site, or that you otherwise have the
right to grant the license set forth in this section, (ii) such User Content,
and its submission, posting, display or availability on or through the Site
does not violate applicable law or the privacy rights, publicity rights,
copyrights, contract rights, intellectual property rights or any other rights
of any person or entity, and (iii) such submission, posting, display or
availability on or through the Site does not result in any breach of contract
between you and any third party. You agree to pay for all royalties, fees,
damages, and any other monies owed to any person or entity by reason of such
User Content. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless SCHINDLERZ and
its affiliates from any claims resulting from any such User Content. If you wish
to request to revoke the license granted by you in this Section for any such
User Content, please send a certified letter of request to the postal address
listed above with a copy of your passport or national identity card (for
identity verification purposes) and request removal of such User Content. Your
certified letter of request must include (a) the signature of the applicable
rights holder for such User Content or a person authorized to act on behalf of
the rights holder; (b) identification of the User Content for which the license
is to be revoked, and information reasonably sufficient to allow SCHINDLERZ to
locate and remove such User Content on the Site; (c) your name, address,
telephone number, and email address; (d) a statement that you have a good faith
belief that you are the rights holder or authorized by the rights holder to
revoke the license for the designated User Content; and (e) a statement that
the information in the request is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that
you are the rights holder or are authorized to act on behalf of the rights
holder with respect to such User Content. There may be a charge for answering
and executing such a request; please contact SCHINDLERZ for more details.
At your discretion,
you may provide feedback and related materials to SCHINDLERZ concerning the
functionality and performance of the Site from time to time, including, without
limitation, identifying potential errors, improvements, modifications, bug
fixes, or enhancements (“Feedback”). If you, through your evaluation or
otherwise, provide any Feedback, you hereby grant to SCHINDLERZ a nonexclusive,
worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicensable (through
multiple layers of sublicensees) right and license to make, use, sell,
sublicense, reproduce, distribute, perform, display, prepare derivative works
from and otherwise exploit all such Feedback for any purpose without
restriction. You agree that SCHINDLERZ may disclose any or all Feedback to any
third party in any manner, and you agree that SCHINDLERZ may sublicense any or
all Feedback in any form to any third party without restriction. By providing
any Feedback, you agree that your provision of such Feedback is gratuitous,
unsolicited and without restriction, and will not place SCHINDLERZ under any
fiduciary, confidentiality or other obligation, and that we are free to use
such Feedback without any additional compensation to you, and free to disclose
such Feedback on a non-confidential basis or otherwise to anyone. You further
acknowledge that, by accepting any Feedback, SCHINDLERZ does not waive any
rights to use similar or related ideas previously known to SCHINDLERZ, or
developed by its employees, or obtained from sources other than you.
5. Rules for Using Our Site
You agree not to access

the right to use any User Content (including the content of messages or
material sent through or to the Site or SCHINDLERZ) to prevent potentially
illegal or tortious activities, or any other activities that are detrimental to
other users. SCHINDLERZ reserves the right to use a variety of methods to
detect and block the above anomalous activity and to screen User Content to prevent
abuse such as spam or fraud. However, such detection methods are not perfect
and false positives may occur. If you use the Site, you agree to SCHINDLERZ
enforcing the above rules or attempting to prevent spam, fraud, or other
anomalous activity. Such measures may result in a temporary or permanent
suspension or termination of your account, of your access to SCHINDLERZ’s
message relay, or of your use of any other functions of the Site, with or
without notice. SCHINDLERZ shall not be responsible or liable for any such
suspension or termination, including any consequences thereof.
We reserve the right
to not deliver any message, including, but not limited to, job applications,

right to conduct investigations to determine whether you are perpetrating a
scam, spamming SCHINDLERZ or its users, or otherwise conducting fraudulent
activity on SCHINDLERZ by various means, including but not limited to
investigating your functionality by setting up profiles and names that belong
to SCHINDLERZ. SCHINDLERZ reserves the right to turn over any information
gathered via such investigations to the police or other third party if SCHINDLERZ
has a good faith belief that you are using the Site in violation of these
terms.

6. Registering with and Contacting SCHINDLERZ
Some areas of the
Site, including areas that may permit you to set up a SCHINDLERZ account,
require you to register or provide an email address. If you so register, you
agree to (a) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about
yourself as prompted by our registration form (including your email address)
and (b) be responsible for the confidentiality and use of your username and
password, and not transfer or resell your use of or access to the Site to any
third party. Please note that any individuals with whom you have shared your
username and password and who are able to answer verification questions about
your SCHINDLERZ account may receive access to information regarding your SCHINDLERZ
account. You are advised to safeguard important data and to not upload
confidential information on the Site. We reserve the right at all times (but
will not have an obligation) to terminate users or to reclaim usernames or
URLs. SCHINDLERZ encourages you to enable two-factor authentication on your
account. If you do not enable two-factor authentication on your account, please
be aware that you are proceeding at your own risk. If someone obtains
unauthorized access of your account, they may have the ability to contact users
or take other actions through your account, and SCHINDLERZ may have only
limited ability to remedy such situations.
You agree that SCHINDLERZ
may, as part of its services to you, communicate with you, or initiate
communication with you on behalf of a third party, through your SCHINDLERZ
account or through other means such as email, telephone (including mobile
phone), or postal mail, including through the use of contact information that
you may provide to SCHINDLERZ or that SCHINDLERZ may otherwise obtain from
third-party sources. By providing SCHINDLERZ with a mobile phone number, you
confirm that you are the primary user and subscriber to the telephone number
entered, and you expressly consent to receiving communication via such mobile
number. If you are a Job Seeker who provided your phone number in connection
with your job application, you agree the Employer may contact you at that
number. When you give SCHINDLERZ a mobile number and consent to receiving
communication, such communications are inherent to the services you have signed
up for. To revoke consent at any time, reply to the text with STOP or contact
SCHINDLERZ Customer Support. For clarity, you agree and understand that texting STOP in
response to a SCHINDLERZ SMS alert will unsubscribe you from SCHINDLERZ SMS
alerts. However, you may continue to receive texts related to some offerings to
which you have subscribed. In order to unsubscribe from these, you must respond
STOP within the specific text flows of those offerings. You may also revoke
your consent by terminating the Agreement through closing your SCHINDLERZ
account. By enabling two step verification, you verify that you are the owner
of the phone number you provided. Revoking consent by replying STOP or
terminating the Agreement does not apply to a phone number that an Employer
already has that you provided as part of a job application. Once an Employer
has your phone number, you agree that SCHINDLERZ is not responsible or liable
for the manner in which the Employer uses the number.

9. Claims of Infringement
U.S. Copyright
Infringement. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA“)
provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on
the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in
good faith that materials hosted by SCHINDLERZ infringe your copyright, you (or
your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material be removed, or
access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information as
required by 17 USC. § 512(c)(3)(A): (a) a physical or electronic signature of a
person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is
allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have
been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the site are
covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works); (c)
identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject
of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow SCHINDLERZ
to locate the material on the site; (d) the name, address, telephone number,
and email address (if available) of the complaining party; (e) a statement that
the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the
manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or
the law; and (f) a statement that the information in the notification is
accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is
authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is
allegedly infringed. If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright
infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send SCHINDLERZ
a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current
statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright/
for details. Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Site should be
sent in writing to Par6. Attn: SCHINDLERZ Copyright Agent. We suggest that you
consult your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice. Also, be
aware that there are penalties for false claims under the DMCA.
Other Claims of
Infringement. For claims of infringement that do not involve a U.S. copyright,
please contact us.
10. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
If you are neither a
Job Seeker nor an Employer as defined in this Agreement and are not using the
Site as intended by SCHINDLERZ, this Agreement will be governed as to all matters,
including, but not limited to the validity, construction and performance of
this Agreement, by and under the laws of Orange County, California, U.S.A.
11. Severability and Reformation
Each provision of this
Agreement is a separately enforceable provision. If any provision of this
Agreement is determined to be or becomes unenforceable or illegal, such
provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary in order for this
Agreement to remain in effect in accordance with its terms as modified by such
reformation. The unenforceability or invalidity of any provision shall not
affect any other provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall continue
in full force and effect, and be construed and enforced, as if such provision
had not been included, or had been modified as above provided, as the case may
be.
12. Filtering for Minors
We hereby notify you
that parental control protections (such as computer hardware, software or
filtering services) are commercially available that may assist you in limiting
access to material that is harmful to minors. Please note that SCHINDLERZ does
not endorse any of the products or services listed on such sites.
13. Use of Site by Minors
The Site is not for
use by anyone under the age of 16. However, if local laws provide for an
alternative minimum age for SCHINDLERZ to lawfully provide the services in the
Site to you, then that shall apply as the applicable minimum age. In all
jurisdictions outside the European Union, if you are under the age of 18 or the
age of majority in your jurisdiction, you must use SCHINDLERZ under the supervision
of your parent, legal guardian or responsible adult. SCHINDLERZ adopts a range
of measures to try to ensure that we do not accept individuals who do not meet
the minimum age and any other applicable age requirements.
14. Using e-Signature
Some pages on the Site
may offer an e-signature option, which is powered by a third-party service
provider. By using e-signatures on the Site, you agree that your e-signature is
intended to authenticate the document you’re signing, and your e-signature will
have the same force and effect as a manual signature. SCHINDLERZ disclaims all
warranties associated with e-signatures, including any errors associated with
the software or the validity of the signature. SCHINDLERZ is not a legal record
keeper. Your use of e-signatures is at your own risk, and it is your
responsibility to ensure that your document is received and to retain your own
copies.
15. Beta Products
SCHINDLERZ may offer
beta test products or features on our Site. You will know that a product or
feature is offered on a beta or test basis because the product name or feature
will state that it is offered on a beta or test basis or the name will include
the word “beta.” These beta test products or features may be offered in limited
quantities, in limited locations, and for a limited time. SCHINDLERZ may
discontinue or cancel all or part of a beta product or feature at anytime
without prior notice to you. ANY BETA PRODUCT OR FEATURE IS IN TESTING PHASE
AND IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, IS BELIEVED TO CONTAIN
DEFECTS, AND A PRIMARY PURPOSE OF THIS BETA TEST IS TO OBTAIN FEEDBACK ON THE
PRODUCT PERFORMANCE. YOU ARE ADVISED TO SAFEGUARD IMPORTANT DATA, TO USE
CAUTION AND NOT RELY IN ANY WAY ON THE CORRECT FUNCTIONING OR PERFORMANCE OF
THE BETA PRODUCT OR FEATURE OR ACCOMPANYING MATERIALS. If you have been invited
to test a beta product or feature, you agree that, unless otherwise
specifically provided herein or agreed by SCHINDLERZ in writing, any beta
product or feature and any documentation provided corresponding with a beta
product or feature constitute confidential proprietary information of SCHINDLERZ.
You shall permit only authorized users, who possess rightfully obtained access
to any beta product or functionality, access to the beta product or
functionality or any corresponding documentation. You agree not to transfer,
copy, disclose, provide or otherwise make available such confidential
information in any form to any third party without the prior written consent of
SCHINDLERZ.

the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force
and effect. You agree that this Agreement cannot be altered, amended, modified
or overridden, except by a document signed by an authorized representative of
each party. For the avoidance of doubt, email or phone communication between
