By creating a jobseeker account on the Platform, you agree to the following terms:
Resume Access and Visibility: Your resume will be searchable to all Users of the Platform who subscribe to RESDEX (Resume Database Access) (“Subscribers”). As a result, Subscribers may contact you via email, telephone, and/or post. Your profile will also be accessible with restrictions to unregistered users, who will not be able to contact you.
Privacy Settings: We recommend reviewing the privacy settings carefully to control who can access your profile based on your preferences. The Site will not be responsible for any contacts or mails you receive. You can update your resume or profile information at any time without additional costs, except for a few fields that are automatically updated by the platform to enhance your user experience. The Platform may contact you based on your activities and interests.
Job Alerts and Promotional Messages: You will receive job alerts via email, SMS, or other modes, detailing jobs that match the information in your profile. You can opt out of these alerts in the Privacy Settings section. Additionally, you may receive promotional mailers, special offers, or recommendations from the Platform or third parties, which you can opt out of by adjusting your privacy settings.
Opting into Services: If you opt for paid services to enhance your job search, the services will begin once the payment is received and confirmed. Services are non-transferable, and payment is considered final. Any applicable refund policies will apply. If you subscribe to Resume Writing services, you must respond to queries within 7 days; failure to do so absolves the Company of all obligations.
Profile and Application Information: When you express interest in a job listing, you authorize the Platform to share your resume and application details, including relevant documents, with the relevant advertiser(s) for the job listing(s). You consent to your application materials and responses exchanged between you and the recruiter/employer being processed and analysed by the Platform as per the Platform's Privacy Policy.
Third-Party Access and Responsibility: Any information you post in public areas of the Platform or make visible in your resume/profile may be accessed and stored by others, including in countries that may not have laws protecting personal information as strongly as your country of residence. While the Platform takes steps to protect your information, it is not responsible for how third parties use your information. You should avoid posting sensitive or private information.
Liability and Data Loss: The Company will not be held liable for any data loss, technical failures, or damage to your resume or information due to events outside of its control, such as natural disasters, data corruption, or cyber-attacks. You are advised not to make any payments to recruiters and should verify the authenticity of any responses received based on your resume submission.
Job Alerts Matching and Accuracy: The Platform uses an automated algorithm to match jobs with the keywords and attributes in your profile. While the Platform strives to offer relevant job alerts, there is no guarantee that the jobs sent will always match your profile. You are encouraged to independently verify the authenticity of employers or recruiters listed in the job alerts.
Recruitment Purpose Only: The services provided are intended solely for genuine recruitment purposes and should only be used to contact suitable candidates for existing jobs. Marketing or promotional messages, offensive content, or misleading job listings are strictly prohibited. Unauthorized job postings are prohibited, and the Company reserves the right to terminate services for spammers without prior notice or a refund.
Job Posting and Resume Management: Users may be subject to restrictions on the number of transactions (CV views, job postings, etc.) per day based on current Platform limits. Job postings on the Platform are displayed for a fixed period (currently 62 days, subject to change). If you're not using the Platform as a consultant for an end employer, you cannot transfer resumes/CVs from the Recruiter's account.

You agree to provide assistance with any Data Security Breach under GDPR or other data security laws. The Company reserves the right to modify job listing details to fit its data structure.

Services will commence only upon receipt of payment.
