D. User Accounts

The information in this section applies to all User accounts. If you sign up and/or create an account with ZipRecruiter (in accordance with Section 7C or Section 8 below), you may control your profile information and how you interact with the Services by changing the settings on your Settings page. When creating your account or uploading information to the Services through your account, you represent and warrant that you will provide accurate and complete information. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs under your account. You are expected to use "strong" passwords (passwords that use a combination of upper and lowercase letters, numbers and symbols) with your account.

You must exercise caution when accessing your account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your password or other Personal Data (as the term is defined in the Privacy Policy). You understand and agree that your account is personal to you and you agree not to provide any other person with access to the Services using your username, password, or other security information. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of your username or password or any other breach of security. You understand that even if you notify us, you will be totally responsible for all activities that occur under your account. You also agree to ensure that you logout from your account at the end of each session. You are responsible for any password misuse or any unauthorized access.

We reserve the right at any time and from time to time, to disable or terminate your account, any username, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by us, in our sole discretion for any or no reason, including any violation of any provision of these Terms of Use.

By connecting to the Services using a third-party service, you give us permission to access and use your information from that service as permitted by that service, and to store your log-in credentials for that service. For example, if you access the Services through a social networking site, you agree that ZipRecruiter can access, store, and make available on the Services, any information and data that you provide in your applicable social networking site account such that the same information is available in your ZipRecruiter account. You agree that we are not liable for any Personal Data that is made available to us in violation of your privacy settings with the applicable social networking site.

ZipRecruiter may suspend or terminate your account and/or your access to the Services, or any portion of the Services at any time without notice to you, for any reason, including if in our sole discretion we determine that you have violated the terms of this Agreement (including in accordance with Section 1E and/or 6F below). Upon any such termination, all the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to survive except for any provisions that grant you access to any of the Services. You agree that we will have no liability to you for any termination or suspension of your access to the Services or your account, or the deletion of information contained within such account.

E. General Rules for Use of Services

You agree not to engage in any of the following prohibited activities: (i) copying, distributing, or disclosing any part of the Services in any medium, including without limitation by any automated or non-automated "scraping"; (ii) using any automated system, including without limitation "robots," "spiders," "offline readers," etc., to access the Services in a manner that sends more request messages to the ZipRecruiter servers than a human can reasonably produce in the same period of time by using a conventional on-line web browser (except that ZipRecruiter grants the operators of public search engines revocable permission to use spiders to copy materials from ZipRecruiter.com for the sole purpose of, and solely to the extent necessary for, creating publicly available searchable indices of the materials, but not caches or archives of such materials); (iii) transmitting spam, chain letters, or other unsolicited communications; (iv) attempting to interfere with, compromise the system integrity or security or decipher any transmissions to or from the servers running the Services; (v) taking any action that imposes, or may impose, as determined in our sole discretion, an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure; (vi) uploading invalid data, viruses, worms, or other software agents through the Services; (vii) collecting or harvesting any personally identifiable information from the Services, except as expressly permitted by certain features of the Services; (viii) using the Services for any commercial solicitation purposes; (ix) impersonating another person or otherwise misrepresenting your affiliation with a person or entity, conducting fraud, hiding or attempting to hide your identity; (x) interfering with the proper working of the Services; (xi) accessing any content on the Services through any technology or means other than those provided or authorized by the Services; (xii) bypassing the measures we may use to prevent or restrict access to the Services, including without limitation, features that prevent or restrict use or copying of any content or enforce limitations on use of the Services or the content therein; (xiii) disclosing or sharing login credentials; (xiv) reverse engineering or decompiling any parts of the Services; (xv) frame or link to any information or content on the Services; (xvi) post or submit any inaccurate, incomplete, or false biographical information or another person’s information; or (xvi) post or submit any material that is unlawful, illegal, defamatory, offensive, discriminatory, threatening, or obscene as determined by ZipRecruiter.

We may, without prior notice, change any aspect of the Services; stop providing the Services or features of the Services; or create usage limits for the Services (for paid products and services). If any such change, cessation or limitation of the Services materially and adversely affects you, then you may terminate the Services on written notice to us. In the event of such termination, you will receive a pro-rata refund of any pre-paid fees pertaining to Services paid for, but not provided, for the balance of the applicable term of your then-current subscription plan. We may permanently or temporarily limit, condition, terminate or suspend your access to the Services or any features thereof, including if in our sole determination (acting reasonably) you breach or violate any provision of this Agreement, commit fraud or other abuse using the Services.

You are solely responsible for your interactions with other ZipRecruiter Users. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor disputes between you and other Users.

2. USER CONTENT AND USERS top

A. Posting or Viewing User Content

The Services may allow Users to post and/or provide content that may be viewable by other Users, including, but not limited to, Job Advertisements, screening requirements, screening questions, screening criteria, company information, a job seeker’s application information, content of messages, resumes/CVs, logos, trademarks, comments, questions, and other content or information ("User Content").

User Content is the sole responsibility of the person or entity that provided the User Content. You shall be solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of posting, providing or publishing it.

B. Prohibited Types of User Content

The following list is intended to be illustrative of the types of User Content that are prohibited, but this is not an exhaustive list: You agree not to post or provide User Content that (i) may create a risk of harm to any person or property; (ii) provides instructional information about illegal activities; (iii) involves the transmission of junk or unsolicited mail or other communications, ‘phishing’ or ‘scamming’; (iv) provides links to material that is illegal or offensive, or targets or solicits Personal Data from anyone under the age of 18; (v) contains any information or content that we deem to be unlawful, harmful, abusive, racially or ethnically offensive, defamatory, infringing, invasive of personal privacy or publicity rights, harassing, humiliating to other people (publicly or otherwise), libelous, threatening, profane, or otherwise objectionable; (vi) contains any information or content that is illegal (including, without limitation, the disclosure of insider information under securities law or of another party's trade secrets); (vii) contains any information or content that you do not have a right to make available under any law or under contractual or fiduciary relationships; (viii) contains any information or content that is false, misleading, or otherwise deceptive; or (ix) violates the Intellectual Property Rights (as defined below) or rights of privacy of any third party. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Intellectual Property Rights" means patent rights, copyright rights, mask work rights, moral rights, rights of publicity, trademark, trade dress and service mark rights, goodwill, trade secret rights and other intellectual property rights as may now exist or hereafter come into existence, and all applications therefore and registrations, renewals and extensions thereof, under the laws of any state, country, territory or other jurisdiction. If you are a Client providing or submitting Job Advertisements, you further agree that such content will not contain any personally identifiable information.

C. No Warranties or Obligations

You agree that ZipRecruiter makes no representations, warranties, promises or guarantees regarding any content provided or generated by third parties, including, without limitation, the content of messages, Job Advertisements and resumés. You further agree that ZipRecruiter acts as a passive conduit for the distribution, provision, and publication of User Content, and has no obligation to screen or verify the accuracy, legality, legitimacy, truthfulness, or completeness of User Content, and accordingly, you accept that ZipRecruiter is not responsible and has no liability for User Content. You understand that you may be exposed to User Content that is inaccurate, incomplete, illegal, misleading, false, offensive, constitutes spam, or is otherwise unsuited to your purpose, and you accept that it is your responsibility to verify the quality, accuracy, truthfulness, legality or reliability of User Content, including, without limitation, resumes/CVs and Job Advertisements and content of messages. Your reliance on any User Content is at your own risk.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, although ZipRecruiter has no obligation to screen User Content, to the extent that ZipRecruiter becomes or is made aware of User Content that may or does (i) violate the terms of this Agreement or any other Agreement you have with ZipRecruiter, or (ii) violate any law or regulation, or (iii) violate the rights of third parties, or (iv) create liability for ZipRecruiter or otherwise negatively impact ZipRecruiter, ZipRecruiter reserves the right to reject and/or remove such User Content, and suspend and/or terminate any User Account associated with such User Content.

D. User Content and the U.S. Communications Decency Act

Please note Section 230 of the U.S. Communications Decency Act ("CDA") (and the equivalent or similar laws in your jurisdiction) is intended to exclude or limit the liability of online service providers such as ZipRecruiter, when such online service providers provide or make available access to third-party user generated content (see § 230 (c)(1) which states: 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).

The decision by ZipRecruiter to remove or not post or distribute any User Content, does not by itself amount to participation in the creation of such User Content and, accordingly, does not constitute a waiver of the immunity afforded by the CDA. Additionally, § 230 (c)(2) of the CDA specifically provides: "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…"

E. User Interactions and Assumption of Risk

You understand and agree that ZipRecruiter does not, and cannot, confirm that each User is who he/she/they claim to be. We are not responsible for authenticating Users and therefore it is your responsibility to conduct the appropriate due diligence before communicating or interacting with other Users, including, without limitation, Job Seekers, employers, staffing agencies, and recruiters. You assume all risks associated with Users with whom you come into contact. If you have any disputes or issues with any User you agree to pursue any remedies directly with the applicable User and you release ZipRecruiter, its subsidiaries, and their respective employees, directors and agents from all claims, demands and damages of every kind (actual and consequential and direct and indirect) known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

F. Content Disclosure

ZipRecruiter reserves the right to disclose User Content and any information related to the provider of such User Content, to third parties in connection with the operation and provision of the Services, to enforce the terms of any agreement that we have with you, to comply with legal obligations and requests from governmental authorities, law enforcement agencies, court orders, subpoenas, etc., and to protect the interests of ZipRecruiter where necessary. For the avoidance of doubt, you agree that we have the right to disclose your identity to a third party who is claiming that any User Content you posted, provided or uploaded is fraudulent, false, or misleading or constitutes a violation of the law, or a violation of their intellectual property or ownership rights, or of their right to privacy.

3. USER CONTENT LICENSE GRANTtop

By posting, submitting, providing and/or otherwise making available any User Content, you expressly grant, and represent that you have a right to grant, to ZipRecruiter, a royalty-free, sublicensable (through multiple layers of sublicensees), perpetual, transferable, non-exclusive, worldwide license to use, sell, reproduce, adapt, translate, sublicense, publicly perform, publicly display, and make derivative works from and otherwise exploit, all such User Content in whole or in part, and in any form, media or technology, whether now known or hereafter developed, for the purposes of posting such User Content on the ZipRecruiter websites, distributing such User Content through the ZipRecruiter distribution and publishing network and in job alerts to job seekers, and to promote ZipRecruiter and the Services. This license continues even if you stop using the Services.

If you are a Client, you acknowledge and agree that ZipRecruiter has no obligation, and may be unable, to remove your Job Advertisements and other content (including any logos and/or trademarks contained therein) once they have been (i) distributed via the ZipRecruiter distribution and publisher network, (ii) listed in search engine results, or (iii) distributed on websites and in job alert emails or job alert texts, or (iv) incorporated into fixed media displays of ZipRecruiter or any third party, and in each case (i) to (iv) above, the license grant from you above will be perpetual and irrevocable for such uses. To the extent your User Content is a trademark, trade name, service mark or service name protected by law, the foregoing license also extends to the use by ZipRecruiter to identify you as a User of the Services in any promotional and marketing materials to promote ZipRecruiter and the Services. Further, to the extent you have given ZipRecruiter the right to access certain User Content that is present on another website or service you own or control, you give ZipRecruiter the right to scrape such website as required to retrieve such User Content for use on the Services as contemplated in the license grants above, notwithstanding any prohibition on scraping set forth in the terms of use or other contractual terms governing such website.

Furthermore, when you authorize ZipRecruiter to send automated personalized invitations or other User Content to candidates on your behalf, you grant ZipRecruiter a license to use your name, likeness, and company information in such communications.

You represent and warrant that you have the rights, power and authority necessary to grant the rights described in this section to User Content that you submit, provide, make available or post, via the Services, that the use by ZipRecruiter of your User Content will not violate any law or infringe the rights of any third party, and that your User Content and any other information that you provide to us is legal, complete, legitimate, truthful and accurate.

4. MOBILE SOFTWAREtop

We may make available software to access the Services via a mobile or tablet device ("Mobile Software"). To use the Mobile Software, you must have a mobile device that is compatible with the Mobile Service. ZipRecruiter does not warrant that the Mobile Software will be compatible with your mobile device. ZipRecruiter hereby grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use a compiled code copy of the Mobile Software for one ZipRecruiter account on mobile devices owned or leased solely by you, for your personal use. You may not : (i) modify, disassemble, decompile or reverse engineer the Mobile Software, except to the extent that such restriction is expressly prohibited by law; (ii) rent, lease, loan, resell, sublicense, distribute or otherwise transfer the Mobile Software to any third party or use the Mobile Software to provide time sharing or similar services for any third party; (iii) make any copies of the Mobile Software; (iv) remove, circumvent, disable, damage or otherwise interfere with security-related features of the Mobile Software, features that prevent or restrict use or copying of any content accessible through the Mobile Software, or features that enforce limitations on use of the Mobile Software; or (v) delete the copyright and other proprietary rights notices on the Mobile Software. You acknowledge that ZipRecruiter may from time to time issue upgraded versions of the Mobile Software, and may automatically electronically upgrade the version of the Mobile Software that you are using on your mobile device. You consent to such automatic upgrading on your mobile device, and agree that the terms and conditions of this Agreement will apply to all such upgrades. Any third-party code that may be incorporated in the Mobile Software is covered by the applicable open source or third-party license EULA, if any, authorizing use of such code. The foregoing license grant is not a sale of the Mobile Software or any copy thereof, and ZipRecruiter or its third-party partners or suppliers retain all right, title, and interest in the Mobile Software (and any copy thereof). Any attempt by you to transfer any of the rights, duties or obligations hereunder, except as expressly provided for in this Agreement, is void. ZipRecruiter reserves all rights not expressly granted under this Agreement.

If the Mobile Software is being acquired on behalf of the United States Government, then the following provision applies: Use, duplication, or disclosure of the Mobile Software by the U.S. Government is subject to restrictions set forth in this Agreement and as provided in DFARS 227.7202-1(a) and 227.7202-3(a) (1995), DFARS 252.227-7013(c)(1)(ii) (OCT 1988), FAR 12.212(a) (1995), FAR 52.227-19, or FAR 52.227-14 (ALT III), as applicable. The Mobile Software originates in the United States, and is subject to United States export laws and regulations. The Mobile Software may not be exported or re-exported to certain countries or those persons or entities prohibited from receiving exports from the United States. In addition, the Mobile Software may be subject to the import and export laws of other countries. You agree to comply with all applicable laws related to use of the Mobile Software and the Services.

6. FREE TRIALS AND PAID SERVICES FOR CLIENTStop

EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN A WRITTEN AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND ZIPRECRUITER, THE FOLLOWING TERMS WILL APPLY TO CLIENTS USING PAID SERVICES.

A. Billing Policies

Certain aspects of the Services may be provided for a fee. If you are a Client and elect to use a paid feature of the Services, you agree to the pricing and payment terms for the applicable Services, as we may update them from time to time. Any recurring charges are billed in advance of service. ZipRecruiter may (1) add new services and products for additional fees and charges, at any time in its sole discretion, or (2) amend fees and charges for existing services, at any time in its sole discretion upon notice. Cancellation requests should be made in accordance with Section 6(E)(iv) below.

We may also provide certain products or services via our third-party partners and you agree that your use of such third-party products or services is subject to the contractual (including payment) terms presented by such third parties should you wish to use their services. You further agree that ZipRecruiter has no responsibility for such third-party services and your use of such services is entirely at your own risk. Any change to the fees for paid services shall become effective in the billing cycle following notice of such change to you.

If you reasonably dispute any portion of an invoice, you must pay the undisputed portion of the invoice and submit written notice of your dispute (with sufficient detail of the nature of the dispute, the amount and invoices in dispute and information necessary to identify the affected Service(s)) for the disputed amount. All disputes must be submitted to ZipRecruiter in writing within thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice with respect to which you have a dispute. You waive the right to dispute any charges not disputed within such thirty (30) day period. In the event that the dispute is resolved against you, you shall pay such amounts plus interest at the rate referenced in Section 6(C) below.

B. No Refunds for Paid Services

You may cancel your subscription to paid services at any time, pursuant to Section 6.E below, and you accept that you will not receive a refund of pre-paid fees for such cancellation, except where otherwise set out in this Agreement. In the event that ZipRecruiter suspends, limits, conditions, or terminates your access to the Services and/or your account due to your material breach of this Agreement or any other agreement that you have with ZipRecruiter, you understand and accept that you will not receive a refund for any unused time with respect to fees that you have pre-paid for a subscription plan, product or service, and to the extent that you have not paid the applicable fees, you will remain liable to pay ZipRecruiter the entire fees due for the subscription, product or service, as applicable.

C. Payment Information; Taxes; Delinquent Payments

If you are a Client, you authorize ZipRecruiter to provide any Authorized User associated with your account, or such other persons as you may hereafter specify in writing, access to view, change, and inquire, about bank, payment, tax or other information relating to your business relationship with ZipRecruiter.

All information that you provide in connection with a monetary transaction must be accurate, complete, and current. You agree to pay all charges incurred by users of your credit card, debit card, or other payment method used in connection with a purchase or transaction at the prices in effect when such charges are incurred. You will also pay any applicable taxes relating to such transactions. If at any time ZipRecruiter is required by a taxing authority to pay any taxes not previously collected from you, you will promptly submit such taxes (including applicable penalties and interest, if any) to ZipRecruiter upon written notice.

If you elect to add additional paid services or products to your selected subscription or upgrade your subscription, we will invoice you for such services, products and upgrades, and/or charge your credit or debit card (or other payment method) accordingly.

Delinquent payments may bear interest at the rate of one-and-one-half percent per month (eighteen percent per annum) or the highest rate permitted by law, if less, from the payment due date until paid in full. You will be responsible for all reasonable expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by ZipRecruiter in collecting delinquent amounts, except where the delinquent amounts are due to billing inaccuracies. In addition, if you are late in payment of any fees, we reserve the right to either (i) immediately suspend or terminate your access to the applicable Services without notice, and in the event of any such suspension or termination, you will remain responsible for the entire amount of fees owing for such Services; or (ii) bill your credit/debit card on file with us under this or any other agreement. Unless your subscription plan is terminated timely and correctly, you will continue to accrue charges even if you don’t use the subscribed Services.

D. Credit and Debit Cards

In the event that you pay for any Services using a credit card or debit card, you authorize ZipRecruiter to charge your credit or debit card (or other acceptable payment method that you have chosen from those offered) ("Payment Method"), for the applicable fees for the duration of the applicable term of your selected subscription plan or other paid service or product, together with any applicable sales, use, excise, goods and services tax (GST), consumption or other similar tax applicable to the Services. You represent that you are authorized to use the Payment Method on your company’s behalf, and you agree to accept an electronic record of a receipt. If at any time your Payment Method will not accept the charge for fees due, you agree that ZipRecruiter may suspend or terminate your access to the applicable Services and that you will continue to remain liable for the full payment for such Services even after your access to the Services has been terminated or suspended. By providing any Payment Method, you agree that applicable credit card, debit card and billing information may be shared with third parties such as payment processors and credit agencies, and/or collection agencies for the purposes of checking your credit, effecting payment, collecting payments and late fees if applicable, and for providing the applicable Services to you or in order to enforce our agreement with you. We may also share this information with law enforcement authorities and in response to subpoenas, court orders, and search warrants.

E. Free Trials and Subscription Services (for Clients that have not executed a paper contract)

EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN A WRITTEN AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND ZIPRECRUITER, OR BETWEEN YOU AND ONE OF OUR THIRD-PARTY PARTNERS, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOUR SUBSCRIPTION TO THE PAID SERVICES WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW UNLESS YOU CANCEL IT OR WE SUSPEND OR TERMINATE IT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE TERMS.

(iii) Subscription Plans and Renewals. Subscription Plans will automatically renew for recurring periods depending on the duration of your selected Subscription Plan (e.g., every 1 day, 30 days, 3 months, 6 months, annual or other period), and, as authorized by you by agreeing to the automatic renewal of your Subscription Plan during the sign-up process, unless you notify ZipRecruiter of any changes or requests not to renew (i.e., to cancel), prior to the end of the Initial Plan Term (each, a "Renewal Plan Term") or each Renewal Plan Term. Cancellation requests should be made in accordance with the instructions provided on the applicable ZipRecruiter website or in accordance with Section 6(E)(iv) below. At the time of the automatic renewal, the applicable subscription or other fees will be charged to the Payment Method provided and/or associated with your account, or you will be invoiced for payment.

(iv) Subscription Plan Cancellation. For paid Subscription Plans, you may cancel at any time effective at the end of the Initial Plan Term or any Renewal Plan Term by calling us at 1-877-252-1062 (US).

You agree and accept that you will not receive any refund of prepaid fees if you request a cancellation and that the cancellation request shall become effective at the end of the Initial Plan Term or Renewal Plan Term in which the cancellation notice is received by ZipRecruiter.

F. Suspension or Termination

ZipRecruiter may suspend or terminate your access to the Services and/or this Agreement in the following instances: (I) if you breach this Agreement and cannot correct the breach within that period required by ZipRecruiter if the breach is capable of cure; (II) immediately, if you fail to pay any monies owed to ZipRecruiter for paid services; (III) immediately if you become the subject of a bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, liquidation, assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar proceeding; (IV) immediately in the event of violations of this Agreement; (V) for any abuse, inappropriate behavior, or other conduct (including posting inaccurate, false, misleading, or dishonest Job Advertisements), which in our sole discretion adversely affects or has the potential to affect us, our employees or users of our Services; (VI) immediately if you send excessive, disruptive, deceptive, dishonest, or abusive communications to another User by mail, email, text, phone, or other mode of communication (as may be determined in ZipRecruiter’s sole discretion), regardless if such communication takes place on or off the Services; (VII) immediately if you in any way disclose, transfer, or sell any Data from the Resume Database (both terms as defined below) or within a User’s resume/CV or profile to a third party, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement; and/or (VIII) immediately, if you charge, or attempt to charge, a Job Seeker any money to review or otherwise proceed with the hiring process after such Job Seeker submits a Job Application on the Services. In the event of any suspension of your access to the Services and/or termination of this Agreement or any other agreement you have with ZipRecruiter (other than a termination for convenience by ZipRecruiter), you remain responsible for the entire amount of the fees (pre-paid and/or due) and you will not receive a refund of any pre-paid fees, for the applicable Services. ZipRecruiter may also suspend your access to the Services without penalty and without notice, in the event of a suspected violation of this Agreement.

7. ADDITIONAL TERMS THAT APPLY TO JOB SEEKERS top

As a Job Seeker, you can (i) use the Services to search for jobs, (ii) apply for jobs ("Job Applications"), (iii) receive job alert emails or text messages, where such features are available to you ("Job Alerts"), (iv) include your resume and other applicable information in a resume database (the, "Resume Database"), and (v) use the Services to participate in video calls or interviews with Clients (“Instant Interview”). For purposes of this Agreement, references to "resume" or "CV" shall also mean a curriculum vitae, profile, references, recommendations, and other similar written overviews or assessments of a person's experience and qualifications.

If you have a ZipRecruiter account, provide your resume/CV to ZipRecruiter, and/or sign up for Job Alerts, you agree that we may (A) use the information you provide to send you information about Job Advertisements that may be of interest to you; and (B) display or provide your resume/CV and profile information (to the extent that you have not designated it as private) to an employer or recruiter who may be interested in candidates like you.

To the extent that you wish us to share your information and resume/CV with potential employers, recruiters, or staffing agencies (including, where you have submitted your resume/CV to the Resume Database or because you have applied to a Job Advertisement on a ZipRecruiter website), you consent to our sharing your resume/CV, together with any additional information you provide to us during the application process. This means that you give us a perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license (and right to sub-license), of any rights, including intellectual property rights, in your resume/CV and any additional information you provide to us, to share or otherwise use such resume/CV and additional information as we reasonably require to fulfil the services we provide to you.

A. Job Applications in General

By applying to a Job Advertisement on the Services, you give us permission to store your information on the Services and to share your information (including your resume/CV), with the entity that posted the Job Advertisement.

You can choose how to submit your Job Application using the options offered through the Services. If you elect to apply through a third-party account, such as Facebook or LinkedIn.com, you will be asked to log-in to the applicable account, and the profile, resume and other information that you have provided as part of any of those accounts will then be provided to the entity that posted the applicable Job Advertisement.

Once you submit a Job Application, your resume and other applicable information will be shared with the entity that posted the Job Advertisement as long as any parameters selected by that entity are met, where applicable. You should therefore ensure that the information you provide is complete and accurate, and only contains information that you are comfortable sharing.

If you ask ZipRecruiter to submit a message to any employer or third party or if you apply for a job using the Services, you accept that ZipRecruiter does not guarantee that the recipient entity will receive, access, view, or respond to your requests or Job Applications, or that the transmission of data will be error-free. Any screener questions provided by the entity posting a Job Advertisement are entirely in the control of that entity and if you require alternate screener questions or application process, you must contact the applicable entity directly.

B. Applying to Job Advertisements on a ZipRecruiter Website

When you apply to a Job Advertisement on a ZipRecruiter website or through the app, if all parameters selected by the entity that posted the Job Advertisement are met, we will send the resume associated with your account (to the extent an account was created as described in Section 7.C. below).

If you have manually logged out of your account or if you have been automatically logged out of your account because of inaction or some other reason, we will ask you to input your email so we can verify your identity before we send the resume associated with your account. Once you receive the verification email and confirm your identity by following the instructions in the email, we will send out the resume associated with your account.

IMPORTANT: It is your responsibility to ensure that the resume associated with your account is always updated, current and accurate before you apply to a Job Advertisement or opt-in to the Resume Database, so an employer receives the most up-to-date information about you. In order to delete old resumes, edit your resume, or upload a new resume, please go to the Profile settings in your User account.

Additionally, although ZipRecruiter requests that companies maintain the confidentiality of the Job Applications and resumes/CVs they receive through the Services, ZipRecruiter cannot and does not guarantee that the information you provide will be held in confidence or properly secured by the applicable recipient.

C. Account Creation

In addition to your ability to manually create a ZipRecruiter account yourself, a ZipRecruiter account will automatically be created for you in the following circumstances, if you don’t already have an account:

(a) When you sign up for job alerts with ZipRecruiter;

(b) When you apply to a Job Advertisement on a ZipRecruiter website, using for example, the ‘Apply Now’ or ‘Quick Apply’ buttons; or

(c) When you ‘verify skills’ for another user.

When an account is automatically created for you, you will receive an email with your user name (which is usually your email address) and a link to either confirm your email or set/reset your password. Whether or not you choose to reset your password, the account will exist under your email address and the resume associated with the action you took (e.g., applying for a job, signing-up for job alerts, etc.), will be connected with that account, unless you choose to delete that account. So, before applying to a Job Advertisement, please ensure that your resume is up-to-date so that employers receive the most recent information about you.

If you do not wish to have a ZipRecruiter account, please contact [email protected] or go to your account settings and delete your account.

D. Job Alerts

You can manually sign up to receive job alerts by email/or SMS. In addition to a manual sign up, if you apply to Job Advertisements on a ZipRecruiter website and/or create an account, you may agree to receive email job alerts based on the type of role you selected. You can sign up for job alerts via SMS in a number of ways including by entering your telephone number in the Mobile Alerts section of your User Account. You can edit or change the type of job alerts want to receive by accessing the Job Alerts tab in your User account. You may opt out of job alerts by clicking on the unsubscribe link in your job alert email or by following the instructions in your SMS alert. You can also contact [email protected], if you need assistance.

E. Resume Database

ZipRecruiter has a feature which permits job seekers to include their resume/CV and other profile information in the Resume Database to be stored on the Service.

Making Your Profile and Resume/CV Public: If you elect to make your resume/CV ‘public’ in your Account settings or during your account creation: (i) it will be added it to the Resume Database, (ii) your resume/CV and profile information (including your Personal Data, to the extent provided in your resume or profile) will be available to be searched, viewed, or downloaded by any persons or entities that have access rights to the Resume Database, (iii) your resume/CV will be visible in whole or in part via search results within the Resume Database, and (iv) your resume/CV and profile information will be visible in part to Clients with active Job Ads to invite or rate candidates to apply.

If you add your resume/CV to the Resume Database, then you are:

  • Consenting to ZipRecruiter matching words, skills, or certifications that are present or implied in your resume or other application materials to words, skills, or certifications present or implied in a Job Advertisement or an employer’s or recruiter’s search of terms, and if there are any matches, to present matching resumes/CVs to the applicable employer or recruiter and to send information to you about Job Advertisements that may be of interest to you.
  • Acknowledging that we may 'parse' the resume and other applicable information into another format to create a profile view and/or enable searchable text for a Company; the Company will also be able to see your resume in the form in which you originally submitted it to ZipRecruiter.

Keeping Your Profile and Resume/CV Private: If you elect to keep your resume/CV private, it will not be added to the Resume Database. If you had previously made your profile and resume/CV public, and wish to opt-out, you may do so at any time by adjusting the settings in the “About Me” page of your account. If you opt-out, we will remove your resume/CV from the Resume Database and disable visibility to search results as soon as reasonably practicable. However, if an entity has already accessed your resume/CV through the Resume Database or search results and copied or saved your resume, that entity will continue to have access to your resume/CV and all information you included in your resume/CV.

F. Interactions with Other Users; Scams; Confidentiality

You are solely responsible for your interactions with Users whom you contact or who contact you. Note: there are risks, including, but not limited to, the risk of physical harm, that may arise when dealing with strangers, including persons who may be acting under false pretenses. You should therefore use caution with regard to the information you elect to share as part of your User Profile or Job Application or resume/CV that. Only list the contact information that you are comfortable disclosing to Clients and other Users of the Services.

In addition to carefully reviewing this section and Section 2 above, you should conduct your own due diligence on potential employers and Job Advertisements that may be of interest to you. As mentioned in Section 2, ZipRecruiter does not authenticate Users or guarantee that a Job Advertisement is suitable, legitimate or real.

If you would like additional information or resources on how to recognize scams, understand the most common ones, and find tips for safeguarding yourself, you can learn more at https://www.ziprecruiter.com/trust/awareness/.


If you are concerned about any particular communication you have received from a potential employer (either because it’s unsolicited or you received the communication in response to your Job Application), or if you are concerned about any particular Job Advertisement you find on ZipRecruiter, or if you find a Job Advertisement that is fake or fraudulent, you should do the following:


a. Contact ZipRecruiter immediately at [email protected] and do not respond to the sender of the communication; and concurrently,


b. Conduct your own Internet search of the company and the person who emailed you.


i. Many scammers use the names of legitimate companies to defraud job seekers. So, look up the email of the human resources department and/or recruiting department of the company that is purporting to contact you about the job, and ask them to verify that the person who contacted you is actually connected with the company. If the email address of the person contacting you doesn’t include the name of the company in the domain, that should also alert you to conduct further checks.


ii. An Internet search may alert you to complaints about the individual and/or the company concerned because it’s likely that you aren’t the first person that has been ‘scammed’. There may be online forums that warn people about potentially fraudulent job advertisements.


iii. U.S. job seekers should check whether any complaints were made to organizations such as the Better Business Bureau or the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC"). The FTC provides recommendations on its website regarding job scams, including, but not limited to: https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/job-scams and https://comparite.ch/avoid-scams.


iv. Canadian job seekers should conduct similar Internet searches and can also check websites such as the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/ce.htm, the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at http://www.antifraudcentre-centreantifraude.ca/fraud-escroquerie/job-emploi-eng.htm, or your provincial/territorial consumer protection bureau website.


v. Australian job seekers should conduct similar searches and can also check websites such as the Scamwatch website (www.scamwatch.gov.au) or your state or territory fair trading authority).


c. If you discover that an email received is connected to a fake or fraudulent Job Advertisement, you should send that email to email provider that hosts the scammer’s email address and request that the account be closed. Some of the more common fraud departments are:


d. If you have already disclosed your bank details or received funds into your account you should contact your bank immediately to stop any transactions and ask their advice regarding next steps. You should also file a police report.


e. US job seekers should file a complaint with the FTC, their State Attorney General and their local Consumer Protection Agency. You can find more information at:https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/job-scams and https://consumer.ftc.gov/jobs-and-making-money/money-making-opportunities-and-investments.


f. Canadian job seekers can contact the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre (CAFC) for more information: http://www.antifraudcentre-centreantifraude.ca/index-eng.htm.


g. Australian job seekers can report any issues to the state police force and seek more information from the Australian Cyber Security Centre at https://www.cyber.gov.au/.


Remember: if the job or the job offer sounds too good to be true, you need to be extra vigilant and conduct your own checks before responding to any communication or taking any action.


The following is a non-exhaustive list of red flags that should alert you to check whether a communication is legitimate and/or whether any particular Job Advertisement is fake or fraudulent ("Scam"). This list doesn’t cover every scenario; it’s merely intended to highlight factors that tend to be present with some of the more common Scams. For more information, you should visit the websites listed above. Be on the alert:


a. If you’re offered a job soon after submitting your resume/CV, without having to go through an interview or other usual hiring process. Usually, when you apply for a vacancy, you expect to wait a few days or weeks to hear back, and then go through a hiring and interview process. Scams will offer you the job almost immediately;


b. If the ‘employer’ claims that they found your resume/CV on a website and offers you the job (as opposed to an invitation to apply) immediately;


c. If the ‘employer’ sends you a check (to cover your initial salary or buy equipment for example), and asks you to deposit the check in your bank account and send them a check for some smaller amount. In addition to contacting ZipRecruiter, you should take the check and any records of the communication to your local Police Department and file a police report;


d. If the ‘employer’ requires you to spend money on training or materials;


e. If the ‘employer’ asks you for personal details and/or financial details that you didn’t include in your resume/CV. The requested information may be your bank details or your birth date, passport number or copy of your passport, social security number, etc. This type of information isn’t typically required until you’ve gone through a hiring process including a formal interview, possibly met the employer in person, and receive a formal offer letter or contract of employment;


f. If the email or other communication from the ‘employer’ contains misspellings, grammatical errors, is badly written or disjointed, and/or contains exclamation marks and words or sentences in capital letters, and/or requires you to accept the job offer immediately;


g. If the role offered to you is more senior than the one for which you applied or offers a salary that is substantially more than you would expect for the role you applied to; or


h. If a Job Advertisement provides a lot of detail about a role but very little information about the type of candidate that is desired.

8. ADDITIONAL TERMS THAT APPLY TO PROVIDERS OF JOB ADVERTISEMENTStop

As a Client, you can use the Services to (i) search for prospective employees or candidates, (ii) view resumes, profiles, or curriculum vitae, (iii) post and/or distribute Job Advertisements on behalf of yourself and/or a third party, and/or (iv) connect directly with Job Seekers through Instant Interview or other features and functions available through the Services.

For content that allegedly violates your copyright, please see Section 10 below.

B. Publication and Distribution of Job Advertisements

By submitting Job Advertisements to ZipRecruiter (whether or not during a Free Trial), you agree that ZipRecruiter is under no obligation to accept, publish, or distribute your Job Advertisements. ZipRecruiter may require some Job Advertisements and/or Clients to be reviewed and/or verified to prevent fraud or abuse of the Services, improve our Services, or for any other reason in ZipRecruiter’s sole discretion. In addition, ZipRecruiter may publicly disclose the number of Job Advertisements that you have posted during any time period of measurement.

ZipRecruiter will make reasonable efforts to distribute Job Advertisements to third-party services, publishers, job boards and/or other entities in our distribution network, or in job alert emails and texts (where a Job Seeker has opted-in to receive such alerts) (collectively, "Distribution Channels"); provided, however, that ZipRecruiter has sole discretion in determining which Distribution Channels the Job Advertisements may be placed. However, you acknowledge and accept that we have no control over the Distribution Channels or communication networks, and therefore we provide no guarantee that your Job Advertisements will actually be delivered over the Internet or via communication networks, be accepted by an entity in the Distribution Channels or be received and/or read by a Job Seeker. You accept that entities in the Distribution Channels have no obligation to use or display a Job Advertisement and may reject a Job Advertisement for any reason or no reason, whether you are on a paid job Subscription Plan, or a trial or free subscription, and even if you have paid for a "Premium Post." You agree that ZipRecruiter is not liable to you or any third party if your Job Advertisement is rejected or not posted, and you will not be entitled to any refund for Job Advertisements not posted or distributed. By submitting a Job Advertisement, you give us permission to distribute that Job Advertisement in the Distribution Channels and on ZipRecruiter websites.

We do not guarantee any responses, or the number of responses, to your Job Advertisements, including, without limitation, views, clicks, or applications, or that any responses will be from individuals suitable for the job vacancy you advertised. We make no guarantee as to the quality of candidates that you will receive as a result of your Job Advertisement. You are solely responsible for interviewing, performing background and reference checks on, verifying information provided by, and selecting an appropriate candidate. In certain cases, entities in the Distribution Channels may require that you agree to additional service policies in order to allow your Job Advertisement to be distributed on or via their services, and you hereby agree to such additional service policies as they apply to the distribution of your Job Advertisements.

C. Your Account and Authorized Users

You are responsible for all activity, acts or omissions of any person or entity that is able to access the Services under your account and you will limit access to the number of users that are allowed under your account to those permitted under your selected Subscription Plan (each, an "Authorized User"). Additionally, you agree that: (i) you will not share log-in credentials and account information with third parties; (ii) you will not sell or sublicense access to your account or the Services; (iii) you will not charge, or receive payment, in cash or in kind, from any individual or entity for use of, or access to, any portion of the Services; (iv) you will ensure that Authorized Users comply with this Agreement and any other Specific Terms of Service or other agreement that you have with ZipRecruiter; (v) you will immediately notify ZipRecruiter of any suspected or alleged violation of this Agreement, including any unauthorized use of any password or account information, or any other known or suspected breach of security; and (vi) you will cooperate with ZipRecruiter with respect to investigation of any suspected or alleged violation of this Agreement and any action by ZipRecruiter to enforce this Agreement.

Any posting of Job Advertisements or interactions with Job Seekers through the Services shall happen only by an Authorized User. Any interactions that you have with ZipRecruiter, including any suggestions, recommendations, or other information provided to help support or improve your experience with the Services, are provided only as a courtesy and without warranty. You are responsible for your use of the Services, including without limitation any content included in your Job Advertisements, compliance with laws, and interactions with Job Seekers.

ZipRecruiter may suspend, limit, condition, or terminate an Authorized User's access to the Services or any features thereof, in the event that ZipRecruiter reasonably determines that such Authorized User has violated this Agreement or appears likely to do so.

D. Removal of Advertisements; Enforcement; Termination

You acknowledge and agree that ZipRecruiter may, with no liability or penalty, remove any Job Advertisement or other content, communication or information posted, which in the sole judgment of ZipRecruiter, violates or may violate this Agreement, applicable laws, rules or regulations, or third party terms; or may adversely affect ZipRecruiter; or is false, inaccurate, misleading, deceptive, fraudulent, libelous, defamatory, immoral, offensive, obscene, pornographic, disruptive, threatening, abusive or illegal; or which may violate or lead to the violation of the rights of, or harms or threatens the safety and privacy of any third party.

We also have the right to:

  • Remove or refuse to post any User Content for any or no reason in our sole discretion.
  • Take any action with respect to any User Content that we deem necessary or appropriate in our sole discretion, including if we believe that such User Content violates the Terms of Use, including the Content Rules, infringes any intellectual property right or other right of any person or entity, threatens the personal safety of users of the Website or the public, or could create liability for us.
  • Disclose your identity or other information about you to any third party who claims that material posted by you violates their rights, including their intellectual property rights or their right to privacy.
  • Take legal action, including without limitation, referral to law enforcement, for any illegal or unauthorized use of the Website or the Services.
  • Terminate or suspend your access to all or part of the Website for any or no reason, including without limitation, any violation of these Terms of Use.

Without limiting the foregoing, we have the right to cooperate fully with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity or other information of anyone posting any materials on or through the Website. YOU WAIVE AND HOLD HARMLESS THE COMPANY AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AND THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AND EMPLOYEES, FROM ANY CLAIMS RESULTING FROM ANY ACTION TAKEN BY ANY OF THE FOREGOING PARTIES DURING, OR TAKEN AS A CONSEQUENCE OF, INVESTIGATIONS BY ALL SUCH PARTIES OR LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES.

E. Resume Database

If your Free Trial or Subscription Plan includes access to the Resume Database, then (subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement) ZipRecruiter hereby grants you a limited, revocable, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive right to access the Resume Database for the limited purpose of (1) searching the Resume Database; and/or (2) viewing and/or downloading the number of resumes/CVs permissible under your Free Trial or Subscription Plan, each for the sole purpose of seeking potential employment candidates for legitimate employment opportunities. You shall not use or access the Resume Database for any other purpose.

You shall not use any automated computer programs or software to download resumes/CV or to extract Data (defined below), and shall not resell or sub-license access to the Resume Database (or any portion thereof) or any resume (including Data contained therein). You further agree that you shall not use the Resume Database or its contents to market or sell products or services to the data subjects whose resumes comprise the Resume Database.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, ZipRecruiter reserves the right to limit the amount of information (including resume views and downloads), that may be accessed in any time period to mitigate any overload to the Services or in response to any abuse of the Services. The Resume Database shall not be used in any manner that adversely affects ZipRecruiter business, imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on ZipRecruiter infrastructure, or interferes with the ability of others to access the Resume Database. ZipRecruiter reserves the right to suspend or terminate access to the Resume Database or terminate this Agreement in the event of any non-compliance with this Agreement or any other agreement you have with ZipRecruiter. You shall remain primarily responsible for ensuring that Authorized Users comply with the terms of this Agreement. If a Job Seeker opts out of the Resume Database at any time, ZipRecruiter reserves the right to block access to, and/or remove, the Job Seeker’s resume/CV from the Resume Database.

You accept that ZipRecruiter does not verify whether any telephone number contained within a resume/CV is a landline or a cell phone number, and it is your responsibility to ensure that any communication with the data subject of the resume/CV is in compliance with applicable laws related to telephone calls, automated dialing, SMS, spam, fax, and unsolicited communications.

You represent, warrant and promise that: (i) you will use the Resume Database and the Personal Data contained within any resumes/CVs or Job Seeker profile (collectively, "Data"), in accordance with applicable communication, privacy and data protection laws; (ii) you shall not further disclose any Data from Resume Database to a third party, unless you are an authorized recruitment agency, staffing agency, or job advertising agency acting on behalf of a client, and you are accessing the resumes/CVs to source candidates on behalf of your clients for legitimate employment purposes, and such disclosure falls within the scope of the appropriate Free Trial or Subscription Plan for the Services; (iii) you will implement appropriate physical, technical, and administrative measures to protect Data obtained from the Resume Database from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction, and you will notify ZipRecruiter immediately in the event of any suspected or actual unauthorized access or disclosure of resumes/CVs; (iv) Authorized Users shall not share login credentials with any other party; (v) you will not use the contact information from resumes/CVs to send unsolicited mail, e-mails, phone calls, SMS, or faxes regarding promotions and/or advertising of your or a third party’s products or services, or to contact or source job seekers for careers fairs and business opportunities; and (vi) you will respect the privacy choices of Job Seekers.

ZipRecruiter makes no representations or warranties regarding any content provided or generated by third parties, including, without limitation, resumes/CVs. You accept that ZipRecruiter acts as a passive conduit for receipt of resumes/CVs and has no obligation to screen resumes/CVs, verify the identity of the person submitting a resume/CV, or verify the accuracy of the data or content contained in resumes/CV. It is your responsibility to conduct due diligence as regards the individual job seeker-subject of each resume/CV. We do not guarantee any response or the number of responses to your Job Advertisements or that any responses will be from individuals suitable for the job vacancy you advertised. It is your responsibility to carry out such checks and procedures as are necessary to ensure that individuals who respond to your Job Advertisements have the required qualifications to meet your requirements.

References to "resume" or "CV" as used herein, will include curriculum vitae, profile, references, recommendations, and other similar written overviews or assessments of a person's experience and qualifications.

F. Job Seekers

ZipRecruiter may inform Job Seekers that you have taken an action with respect to a resume/CV or a Job Application. You agree to deal fairly and professionally with individuals who may respond to your Job Advertisement and agree to indemnify us from and against any claim brought by an individual against ZipRecruiter arising from your breach of this Agreement or any other agreement you have with ZipRecruiter.

You agree to implement appropriate physical, technical, organizational, and administrative measures (a) to prevent unauthorized or unlawful processing of any Personal Data; (b) to protect Personal Data against accidental loss, destruction or damage; (c) to include taking reasonable steps to ensure the reliability of the personnel having access to the Personal Data; and (d) having regard to the state of technological development and the cost of implementing those measures so as to ensure a level of security appropriate to: (i) the harm that may result from breach of those measures; and (ii) the nature of the Personal Data to be protected. You agree to comply with applicable data protection and privacy laws and regulations in applicable jurisdictions particularly as they relate to your operations and the residency of the applicable data subjects. You further agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend ZipRecruiter at your own expense against all costs, claims, damages or expenses incurred by ZipRecruiter for which we may become liable due to any failure by you or your personnel or agents to comply with any of your obligations under this section and applicable data protection and privacy laws and regulations.

H. Using an ATS or Other Partner Platform

If you use an applicant tracking system (“ATS”), you understand and agree that to the extent any Personal Data transferred to the ATS falls within the scope of the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) or any applicable data protection law, the ATS is processing the Personal Data on your behalf pursuant to a written agreement between you and the ATS that includes all terms necessary for the ATS to qualify as a service provider or processor as those terms (or similarly used terms) are defined under the CCPA or applicable data protection law.

If you access or use the ZipRecruiter Services through a third-party platform, such as, without limitation, third-party platforms applicable to ZipRecruiter’s resellers, applicant tracking system partners, job board partners, or other strategic partners (each, a “Partner Platform”), you understand and agree that you will only post Job Advertisements in connection with hiring employees for your own organization, and you will only use the ZipRecruiter Services in connection with hiring employees for your own organization. ZipRecruiter reserves the right, as determined in ZipRecruiter’s sole discretion, to reject or disable your use, or any portion of your use, of the ZipRecruiter Services through a Partner Platform if you post a Job Advertisement in connection with hiring an employee for an organization other than yours or if you use the ZipRecruiter Services in connection with hiring an employee for an organization other than yours, whether or not you are a job board, staffing agency, recruiter, recruitment advertising agency, or other recruitment-based entity.

9. PRIVACY AND SECURITYtop

Please refer to our Privacy Policy for information regarding how we collect, process, share and store your Personal Data.

FAILURE TO INCLUDE ALL OF THE ABOVE INFORMATION, ESPECIALLY SPECIFIC URLS WHERE CONTENT MAY BE FOUND WILL RESULT IN A DELAY IN THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DMCA NOTIFICATION AND MAY RESULT IN YOU HAVING TO REPEAT SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE PROCESS. ZIPRECRUITER WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIVE ACTION TO REMOVE CONTENT UNTIL ALL OF THE NECESSARY INFORMATION IS PROVIDED.

The above information must be submitted to the following DMCA Agent:

Attn: DMCA Agent
ZipRecruiter, Inc.

Email: [email protected]

UNDER FEDERAL LAW, IF YOU KNOWINGLY MISREPRESENT THAT ONLINE MATERIAL IS INFRINGING, YOU MAY BE SUBJECT TO CRIMINAL PROSECUTION FOR PERJURY AND CIVIL PENALTIES, INCLUDING MONETARY DAMAGES, COURT COSTS, AND ATTORNEYS' FEES.

Copyright Counter-Notices. If content you posted on the site was removed due to a claim(s) of copyright infringement and you would like to dispute that removal, the process for counter-notifications is governed by Section 512(g) of the DMCA:

  1. To file a counter-notification with us, you must provide a written communication that sets forth the items specified below.
  2. Please note that under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability. Please also be advised that we enforce a policy that provides for the termination in appropriate circumstances of users (and removal of content from users) who are infringers. Accordingly, if you are not sure whether certain material infringes the copyrights of others, we suggest that you first contact an attorney.

Elements of Counter-Notification. To expedite our ability to process your counter-notification, please use the following format (including section numbers):

  1. Identify the specific URLs of material that ZipRecruiter has removed or to which ZipRecruiter has disabled access.
  2. Provide your full name, address, telephone number, email address and, if you are a registered User, the User name of your account.
  3. Provide a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of the state of California, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification to ZipRecruiter in accordance with the process outlined above or an agent of such person.

Foreign Counter-Notification. If you reside outside of the United States, please understand that filing a counter-notice may lead to legal proceedings between you and the complaining party to determine ownership. Therefore, please be aware that there may be adverse legal consequences in your country and/or the United States of America if you make a false or bad faith allegation by using this process. Please also be advised that we enforce a policy that provides for the termination in appropriate circumstances of users who are infringers. So, if you are not sure whether content you posted on the site is being infringed, or are otherwise unsure of whether to file a counter-notification using these procedures, we recommend you first contact a lawyer knowledgeable in the laws of the United States and the state of California. If you do wish to file a counter-notice, you should follow the process set forth above under the heading “Elements of Counter-Notification.”

15. AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE top

This Agreement contains an Arbitration provision, which will, with limited exception, require you to submit disputes you have against ZipRecruiter to binding and final arbitration to the extent that the laws of the jurisdiction where you reside permit the inclusion of Arbitration provision in these Terms of Use. You will only be permitted to pursue claims against ZipRecruiter on an individual basis, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative action or proceeding, and you will only be permitted to seek relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) on an individual basis.

If you are located in, are based in, have offices in, or do business in a jurisdiction in which this Section 15 is enforceable, the following mandatory arbitration provisions apply to you:

A. Binding Arbitration

This Section 15 is referred to in this Agreement as the "Agreement to Arbitrate". Unless you opt-out pursuant to the opt-out procedures set forth below, you agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and ZipRecruiter or its affiliates, whether relating to the Services, this Agreement (including any alleged breach thereof), or otherwise (each a "Dispute"), shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to Arbitrate. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

D. User Content and ZipRecruiter as an Online Service Provider

ZipRecruiter operates as an online service provider and provides or makes available access to third-party user generated content.

E. User Interactions and Assumption of Risk

You acknowledge and agree that ZipRecruiter does not, and cannot, confirm that each User is who he/she/they claim to be.

If you have any disputes or issues with any User you agree to pursue any remedies directly with the applicable User and you release ZipRecruiter, its subsidiaries, and their respective employees, directors and agents from all claims, demands and damages of every kind (actual and consequential and direct and indirect) known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

F. Content Disclosure

ZipRecruiter reserves the right to disclose User Content and any information related to the provider of such User Content, to third parties in connection with the operation and provision of the Services, to enforce the terms of any agreement that we have with you, to comply with legal obligations and requests from governmental authorities, law enforcement agencies, court orders, subpoenas, etc., and to protect the interests of ZipRecruiter where necessary. For the avoidance of doubt, you agree that we have the right to disclose your identity to a third party who is claiming that any User Content you posted, provided or uploaded is fraudulent, false, or misleading or constitutes a violation of the law, or a violation of their intellectual property or ownership rights, or of their right to privacy.

6. PAID SERVICES FOR CLIENTS top

EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN A WRITTEN AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND ZIPRECRUITER, THE FOLLOWING TERMS WILL APPLY TO CLIENTS USING PAID SERVICES.

A. Billing Policies

Certain aspects of the Services may be provided for a fee. If you are a Client and elect to use a paid feature of the Services, you agree to the pricing and payment terms for the applicable Services, as we may update them from time to time. ZipRecruiter may (1) add new services and products for additional fees and charges, at any time in its sole discretion, or (2) amend fees and charges for existing services, at any time in its sole discretion upon notice.

We may also provide certain products or services via our third-party partners and you agree that your use of such third-party products or services is subject to the contractual (including payment) terms presented by such third parties should you wish to use their services. You further agree that ZipRecruiter has no responsibility for such third-party services and your use of such services is entirely at your own risk. Any change to the fees for paid services shall become effective in the billing cycle following notice of such change to you.

If you reasonably dispute any portion of an invoice, you must pay the undisputed portion of the invoice and submit written notice of your dispute (with sufficient detail of the nature of the dispute, the amount and invoices in dispute and information necessary to identify the affected Service(s)) for the disputed amount.

The following provision is excluded insofar as German law is applicable: All disputes must be submitted to ZipRecruiter in writing within thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice with respect to which you have a dispute. You waive the right to dispute any charges not disputed within such thirty (30) day period.

In the event that the dispute is resolved against you, you shall pay such amounts plus interest at the rate referenced in Section 6(C) below.

B. No Refunds for Paid Services

You understand and accept that, to the fullest extent available under applicable law, you will not receive a refund of any pre-paid fees if you cancel, terminate, or decide to no longer use of the paid service, prior to the expiration of those services (for example, if you hire a candidate prior to the expiration of your job posting). In the event that ZipRecruiter suspends, limits, conditions, or terminates your access to the Services and/or your account due to your breach of this Agreement or any other agreement that you have with ZipRecruiter, you understand and accept that you will not receive a refund for any unused time with respect to fees that you have pre-paid for a product or service, and to the extent that you have not paid the applicable fees, you will remain liable to pay ZipRecruiter the entire fees due for the product or service, as applicable.

C. Payment Information; Taxes; Delinquent Payments

You agree to pay all charges incurred by users of your credit card, debit card, or other payment method used in connection with a purchase or transaction at the prices in effect when such charges are incurred. You will also pay any applicable taxes relating to such transactions. If at any time ZipRecruiter is required by a taxing authority to pay any taxes not previously collected from you, you will promptly submit such taxes (including applicable penalties and interest, if any) to ZipRecruiter upon written notice.

If you elect to enhance your job posting with certain upgrades, we will invoice you for such upgrades and/or charge your credit or debit card (or other payment method) accordingly.

Delinquent payments may bear interest at the rate of one-and-one-half percent per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less) from the payment due date until paid in full. You will be responsible for all reasonable expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by ZipRecruiter in collecting delinquent amounts, except where the delinquent amounts are due to billing inaccuracies. In addition, if you are late in payment of any fees, we reserve the right to either (i) immediately suspend or terminate your access to the applicable Services without notice, and in the event of any such suspension or termination, you will remain responsible for the entire amount of fees owing for such Services; or (ii) bill your credit/debit card on file with us under this or any other agreement. Unless your subscription plan is terminated timely and correctly, you will continue to accrue charges even if you don’t use the subscribed Services.

D. Credit and Debit Cards

You represent that you are authorized to use the Payment Method on your company’s behalf, and you agree to accept an electronic record of a receipt. If at any time your Payment Method will not accept the charge for fees due, you agree that ZipRecruiter may suspend or terminate your access to the applicable Services and that you will continue to remain liable for the full payment for such Services even after your access to the Services has been terminated or suspended. By providing any Payment Method, you agree that applicable credit card, debit card and billing information may be shared with third parties such as payment processors and credit agencies, and/or collection agencies for the purposes of checking your credit, effecting payment, collecting payments and late fees if applicable, and for providing the applicable Services to you or in order to enforce our agreement with you. We may also share this information with law enforcement authorities and in response to subpoenas, court orders, and search warrants.

E. Suspension or Termination

In the event of any suspension of your access to the Services and/or termination of this Agreement or any other agreement you have with ZipRecruiter (other than a termination for convenience by ZipRecruiter), you remain responsible for the entire amount of the fees (pre-paid and/or due), for the applicable Services, and you will not receive a refund of any prepaid fees. ZipRecruiter may also suspend your access to the Services without penalty and without notice, in the event of a suspected violation of this Agreement. In the event your access to the Services is terminated for cause in accordance with clauses (V), (VI), (VII), (VIII) above, you shall further be prohibited from signing up for or using any other User account, free trial, or paid service on the Services.

(ii) Suspension or Termination for Convenience.

7. ADDITIONAL TERMS THAT APPLY TO JOB SEEKERS top

As a Job Seeker, you can (i) use the Services to search for jobs, (ii) apply for jobs ("Job Applications"), and (iii) sign up to receive job alert emails or text messages, where such features are available to you("Job Alerts"). For purposes of this Agreement, references to "resume" or "CV" shall also mean a curriculum vitae, profile, references, recommendations, and other similar written overviews or assessments of a person's experience and qualifications.

If you have signed up for Job Alerts, you agree that we may use the information you provide to send you information about Job Advertisements that may be of interest to you.

To the extent that you wish us to share your information and resume/CV with potential employers, recruiters, or staffing agencies (including, where you have applied to a Job Advertisement on a ZipRecruiter website), you give us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license (and right to sub-license), of any rights, including intellectual property rights, in your resume/CV and any additional information you provide to us, to share or otherwise use such resume/CV and additional information as we reasonably require to provide the Services.

By applying to a Job Advertisement on the Services, you agree to our to storing your information on the Services and to share your information (including your resume/CV), with the entity that posted the Job Advertisement.

You can choose how to submit your Job Application using the options offered through the Services.

Once you submit a Job Application, your resume and other applicable information will be shared with the entity that posted the Job Advertisement. You should therefore ensure that the information you provide is complete and accurate, and only contains information that you are comfortable sharing.

If you ask ZipRecruiter to submit a message to any employer or third party or if you apply for a job using the Services, you accept that ZipRecruiter does not guarantee that the recipient entity will receive, access, view, or respond to your requests or Job Applications, or that the transmission of data will be error-free. Any screener questions provided by the entity posting a Job Advertisement are entirely in the control of that entity and if you require alternate screener questions or an alternate application process, you must contact the applicable entity directly.

B. Applying to Job Advertisements on a ZipRecruiter Website

When you apply to a Job Advertisement on a ZipRecruiter website or through the app, we will send the resume associated with your account (to the extent an account was created as described in Section 7.C. below).

If you have manually logged out of your account or if you have been automatically logged out of your account because of inaction or some other reason, we will ask you to input your email so we can verify your identity before we send the resume associated with your account. Once you receive the verification email and confirm your identity by following the instructions in the email, we will send out the resume associated with your account.

IMPORTANT: It is your responsibility to ensure that the resume associated with your account is always updated, current and accurate before you apply to a Job Advertisement so an employer receives the most up-to-date information about you. In order to delete old resumes, edit your resume, or upload a new resume, please go to the Profile settings in your User account.

C. Account Creation

You can also contact our Customer Service team at [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], or [email protected] (as applicable), if you need assistance.

E. Interactions with Other Users; Scams; Confidentiality

You are solely responsible for your interactions with Users whom you contact or who contact you. Note: there are risks, including, but not limited to, the risk of physical harm, that may arise when dealing with strangers, including persons who may be acting under false pretenses. You should therefore use caution with regard to the information you elect to share as part of your User Profile or Job Application or resume/CV that. Only list the contact information that you are comfortable disclosing to Clients and other Users of the Services.

In addition to carefully reviewing this section and Section 2 above, you should conduct your own due diligence on potential employers and Job Advertisements that may be of interest to you. As mentioned in Section 2, ZipRecruiter does not authenticate Users or guarantee that a Job Advertisement is suitable, legitimate or real.

If you are concerned about any particular communication you have received from a potential employer (either because it’s unsolicited or you received the communication in response to your Job Application), or if you are concerned about any particular Job Advertisement you find on ZipRecruiter, or if you find a Job Advertisement that is fake or fraudulent, you should do the following:


a. Contact ZipRecruiter immediately at [email protected] and do not respond to the sender of the communication; and concurrently,


b. Conduct your own Internet search of the company and the person who emailed you.


i. Many scammers use the names of legitimate companies to defraud job seekers. So, look up the email of the human resources department and/or recruiting department of the company that is purporting to contact you about the job, and ask them to verify that the person who contacted you is actually connected with the company. If the email address of the person contacting you doesn’t include the name of the company, that should also alert you to conduct further checks.


ii. An Internet search may alert you to complaints about the individual and/or the company concerned because it’s likely that you aren’t the first person that has been ‘scammed’. There may be online forums that warn people about potentially fraudulent job advertisements.


iii. Job seekers in the United Kingdom can also check websites such as www.safer-jobs.com. You should also report Scams to Safer Jobs at: https://www.safer-jobs.com/contact/report_incident.


c. If you discover that an email received is connected to a fake or fraudulent Job Advertisement, you should send that email to email provider that hosts the scammer’s email address and request that the account be closed. Some of the more common fraud departments are:


d. If you have already disclosed your bank details or received funds into your account you should contact your bank immediately to stop any transactions and ask their advice regarding next steps. You should also file a police report. UK jobseekers can also receive advice for preventing banking fraud at www.banksafeonline.org.uk and/or can call Action Fraud on 03001232040 or visit https://www.actionfraud.police.uk.


Remember, if the job or the job offer sounds too good to be true, you need to be extra vigilant and conduct your own checks before responding to any communication or taking any action.


The following is a non-exhaustive list of red flags that should alert you to check whether a communication is legitimate and/or whether any particular Job Advertisement is fake or fraudulent ("Scam"). But, this list doesn’t cover every scenario; it’s merely intended to highlight some of the more common Scams. For more information, you should visit the websites listed above. Be on the alert:


a. If you’re offered a job soon after submitting your resume/CV, without having to go through an interview or other usual hiring process. Usually, when you apply for a vacancy, you expect to wait a few days or weeks to hear back, and then go through a hiring and interview process. Scams will offer you the job almost immediately;


b. If the ‘employer’ claims that they found your resume/CV on a website and offers you the job immediately;


c. If the ‘employer’ sends you a check (to cover your initial salary or buy equipment for example), and asks you to deposit the check in your bank account and send them a check for some smaller amount. In addition to contacting ZipRecruiter, you should take the check and any records of the communication to your local Police Department and file a police report;


d. If the ‘employer’ requires you to spend money on training or materials;


e. If the ‘employer’ asks you for personal details and/or financial details that you didn’t include in your resume/CV. The requested information may be your bank details or your birth date, passport number or copy of your passport, government identification number, etc. This type of information isn’t typically required until you’ve gone through a hiring process including a formal interview, possibly met the employer in person, and receive a formal offer letter or contract of employment;


f. If the email or other communication from the ‘employer’, contains misspellings, grammatical errors, is badly written or disjointed, and/or contains exclamation marks and words or sentences in capital letters, and/or requires you to accept the job offer immediately;


g. If you applied for a role that is less senior to the one that is offered to you or offers a salary that is substantially more than you would expect for the role you applied to; or


h. If a Job Advertisement provides a lot of detail about a role but very little information about the type of candidate that is desired.

Additionally, although ZipRecruiter requests that companies maintain the confidentiality of the Job Applications and resumes/CVs they receive through the Services, ZipRecruiter cannot and does not guarantee that the information you provide will be held in confidence or properly secured by the applicable recipient.

By submitting Job Advertisements to ZipRecruiter, you agree that ZipRecruiter is under no obligation to accept, publish, or distribute your Job Advertisements. ZipRecruiter may require some Job Advertisements and/or Clients to be reviewed and/or verified to prevent fraud or abuse of the Services, improve our Services, or for any other reason in ZipRecruiter’s sole discretion. In addition, ZipRecruiter may publicly disclose the number of Job Advertisements that you have posted during any time period of measurement.

ZipRecruiter will make reasonable efforts to distribute Job Advertisements to third-party services, publishers, job boards and/or other entities in our distribution network, or in job alert emails and texts (where a Job Seeker has opted-in to receive such alerts) (collectively, "Distribution Channels"); provided, however, that ZipRecruiter has sole discretion in determining which Distribution Channels the Job Advertisements may be placed. However, you acknowledge and accept that we have no control over the Distribution Channels or communication networks, and therefore we provide no guarantee that your Job Advertisements will actually be delivered over the Internet or via communication networks, be accepted by an entity in the Distribution Channels or be received and/or read by a Job Seeker. You accept that entities in the Distribution Channels have no obligation to use or display a Job Advertisement and may reject a Job Advertisement for any reason or no reason, whether you are on a paid job Subscription Plan, or a trial or free subscription, and even if you have paid for a "Premium Post". You agree that ZipRecruiter is not liable to you or any third party if your Job Advertisement is rejected or not posted, and you will not be entitled to any refund for Job Advertisements not posted or distributed. By submitting a Job Advertisement, you give us permission to distribute that Job Advertisement in the Distribution Channels and on ZipRecruiter websites.

We do not guarantee any responses, or the number of responses, to your Job Advertisements, including, without limitation, views, clicks, or applications, or that any responses will be from individuals suitable for the job vacancy you advertised. We make no guarantee as to the quality of candidates that you will receive as a result of your Job Advertisement. You are solely responsible for interviewing, performing background and reference checks on, verifying information provided by, and selecting an appropriate candidate.

It is your responsibility to conduct due diligence as regards the individual job seeker-subject of each resume/CV.

13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY top

If you are a Job Seeker, acting as a consumer and resident in the European Union or United Kingdom, and ZipRecruiter negligently breaches this Agreement, ZipRecruiter is responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of a breach by ZipRecruiter of this Agreement or as a result of the negligent breach of ZipRecruiter. ZipRecruiter is not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable.

Loss or damage is foreseeable if they were an obvious consequence of a breach by ZipRecruiter or if they were contemplated by you and ZipRecruiter at the time you agreed to this Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we will not be liable for any indirect or consequential damages of any nature whatsoever, arising from your use of the Services. If such clauses are prohibited pursuant to mandatory consumer laws of your country of residence, this limitation of liability will not apply to you.

You acknowledge and agree that, subject to the foregoing, ZipRecruiter will not be liable to you for any loss or damage, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, even if foreseeable, arising under or in connection with:

  • use of, or inability to use, the Services; or
  • use of or reliance on any User Content displayed on the Services or accessed via the Services, including, but not limited to, Job Advertisements, resumes/CVs, content of messages, and other User Content

If you are a Job Seeker, acting as a consumer and resident in the European Union, ZipRecruiter does not exclude or limit in any way its liability for:

  • death or personal injury caused by the negligence of ZipRecruiter
  • fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation by ZipRecruiter;
  • your rights as a consumer under applicable law of the country in which you reside; and
  • any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by applicable law

14. AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE top

This Agreement contains an Arbitration provision, which will, with limited exception, require you to submit disputes you have against ZipRecruiter to binding and final arbitration to the extent that the laws of the jurisdiction where you reside permit the inclusion of Arbitration provision in these Terms of Use. You will only be permitted to pursue claims against ZipRecruiter on an individual basis, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative action or proceeding, and you will only be permitted to seek relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) on an individual basis.

If you are located in, are based in, have offices in, or do business in a jurisdiction in which this Section 14 is enforceable, the following mandatory arbitration provisions apply to you:

A. Binding Arbitration

This Section 14 is referred to in this Agreement as the "Agreement to Arbitrate". Unless you opt-out pursuant to the opt-out procedures set forth below, you agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and ZipRecruiter or its affiliates, whether relating to the Services, this Agreement (including any alleged breach thereof), or otherwise (each a "Dispute"), shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to Arbitrate. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), including the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes, each available at www.adr.org, or such other alternative dispute resolution body and arbitration rules that may be mutually agreed upon by you and ZipRecruiter. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by such rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, you and ZipRecruiter may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties.

B. Restrictions

You and ZipRecruiter agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between ZipRecruiter and you individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (1) no arbitration shall be joined with any other; (2) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (3) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

C. Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration

You and ZipRecruiter agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (1) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or ZipRecruiter intellectual property rights; (2) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy or unauthorized use; and (3) any claim for injunctive relief.

D. 30 Day Right to Opt Out of Arbitration

You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration provisions set forth in this Section 14 by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to [email protected] or to the U.S. mailing address listed at the bottom of this Agreement. The notice must be sent to ZipRecruiter within thirty (30) days of your registering to use the Services or agreeing to these terms, whichever occurs first, otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of those sections. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, we also will not be bound by them.

E. European Union Online Dispute Resolution

If you are an individual located in the EU, you may also choose to bring your dispute to the online dispute resolution portal of the European Commission, available here: http://ec.europa.eu/odr.

15. EMPLOYMENT AGENCIES AND EMPLOYMENT BUSINESS REGULATIONS 2003 (ONLY FOR USERS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM) top

For the purposes of the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Business Regulations 2003 (the, "Regulations"), job seekers and recruiters should be aware that ZipRecruiter is not an employment business and operates as a venue only, and accordingly, does not introduce or supply work-seekers to recruiters (or vice versa). Accordingly, ZipRecruiter does not, without limitation: (i) acquire sufficient information for potential recruiters to select a suitable work-seeker for the position which the recruiter seeks to fill; (ii) acquire confirmation of the identity of a work-seeker or that the individual has the experience, training, qualifications or authorization to work in the position to be filled or that they wish to undertake the role to be filled; (iii) verify that the work-seeker and recruiter are each aware of any requirement imposed by law or otherwise which must be satisfied by either of them to permit the work-seeker to fulfill the position to be filled; (iv) give any indication to recruiters whether work-seekers are unsuitable (or suitable) for any position to be filled in any circumstances; (v) propose work-seekers to recruiters or provide any information about them other than in the course of providing a search function to recruiters to make key word searches of the CV database; (vi) take up any references in relation to a work-seeker; or (vii) make any arrangements for accommodation of work-seekers.

Since ZipRecruiter is only a venue and does not propose or introduce work-seekers to recruiters or vice versa, if you are a work-seeker you undertake the steps set out in the Regulations to ensure your suitability for the role advertised or, if you are a recruiter, to ensure a work-seeker’s suitability for the role. These checks could include: (A) if you are a work-seeker; checking the identity of the recruiter and the nature of its business, the commencement date and duration of the position, the position to be filled including type of work, location, hours and risks to health and safety, experience, training, qualifications and authorization which the recruiter considers necessary or are required by law or otherwise to undertake the position, whether any expenses are payable by you as a work-seeker or whether there are any requirements imposed by law or otherwise for you to satisfy before taking up a position; and (B) if you are a recruiter; checking the identity of the work-seeker and that the work-seeker has the experience, training, qualifications and authorization required by law or otherwise for the position and whether there are any requirements imposed by law or otherwise for you, as the recruiter, to meet to enable a work-seeker to take up a position and additionally, where professional qualifications are required or where work-seekers are to work with vulnerable persons or children, you should obtain copies of the relevant qualifications, background checks and references. Any searching or screening tools provided by us for use in your assessment of the suitability or otherwise of any particular candidate or advertised vacancy are to assist you in taking these steps, but are not intended as a substitute for your own verifications of the candidate’s qualifications, work history and otherwise suitability for the position.

16. GENERAL top

A. Governing Law and Location

The Services are controlled and operated by ZipRecruiter from within the United States of America. ZipRecruiter makes no representations that the Services or the materials available via the Services, are appropriate or available for use in locations outside of the European Union, United Kingdom, or Switzerland. Those who choose to access the Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with all United States of America, European Union, United Kingdom, or Switzerland laws as well as local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.

Unless otherwise required by a mandatory law of a member state of the European Union, United Kingdom, or Switzerland or any other jurisdiction, this Agreement and any Disputes shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of California, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. An arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different Users, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same User to the extent required by applicable law. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all arbitration and other litigation in a court of competent jurisdiction of any dispute between you and ZipRecruiter related to this Agreement shall be located in Los Angeles County, California.

You may not use the Services if you are a resident of a country embargoed by the United States, European Union, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, or are a foreign person or entity blocked or denied by the United States government.

If you are a Job Seeker, acting as a consumer and resident in the European Union: you agree that this Agreement shall be governed by the law of your country of residence without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that may provide the application of the law of another jurisdiction. You and ZipRecruiter both agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in the country of your residence.

B. Assignment

This Agreement shall be personal to you and you may not assign, transfer, sublet, lease or delegate all or any of your rights and obligations, without the prior written consent of the General Counsel of ZipRecruiter or his/her designee. ZipRecruiter can assign this Agreement or delegate its obligations without restriction.

C. Relationship of the Parties

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as making either party the partner, joint venturer, employer, contractor or employee of the other. Neither party shall have or hold itself out to any third party as having any authority to make any statements, representations or commitments of any kind, or to take any action, that shall be binding on the other, except as provided for herein or authorized in writing by the party to be bound.

Except as set out in this Agreement, only you and ZipRecruiter may enforce this Agreement as this contract is between you and ZipRecruiter; no other party shall be entitled to enforce the terms of this Agreement.

D. Notification Procedures

ZipRecruiter may provide notifications, whether such notifications are required by law or are for marketing or other business related purposes, to you via email notice, written or hard copy notice, or through conspicuous posting of such notice on our websites, as determined by ZipRecruiter in its sole discretion. ZipRecruiter reserves the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to Users, provided that you may opt out of certain means of notification as described in this Agreement. ZipRecruiter is not responsible for any automatic filtering you or your network provider may apply to email notifications we send to the email address you provide us. We recommend that you add [email protected] to your email address book to help ensure you receive email notifications from us.

E. Entire Agreement

This Agreement, together with any (1) written agreement bearing a signature by an authorized ZipRecruiter representative (sales representatives are not authorized ZipRecruiter representatives for these purposes) and (2) formal document titled "Quote" sent by ZipRecruiter to you, which is accepted by you (email communications between you and ZipRecruiter are not considered Quotes) shall constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and ZipRecruiter concerning the Services.

The following provision is excluded insofar as German law is applicable: No other contrary statement, promise, or representation made or given by or on behalf of ZipRecruiter shall have any force or effect, and you acknowledge and agree that you have not relied upon any statement, promise, or representation made or given by or behalf of ZipRecruiter, which is not set out in this Agreement, or any document expressly referred to herein

F. Compliance with Laws

You agree to comply with all applicable laws, regulations and ordinances in the use of the Services and the conduct of your activities.

G. Confidentiality

Pursuant to your use of the Services, you may receive information or be exposed to features and functionality that are not known or available to the general public, including, but not limited to, login credentials, technology, API Keys, dashboards, widgets, insertion codes, and guidelines and documentation relating to the Services ("Confidential Information"). You agree that: (a) all Confidential Information will remain the exclusive property of ZipRecruiter; (b) you will use Confidential Information only as is necessary for your use of the Services and in accordance with this Agreement; (c) you will not disclose Confidential Information to any third party; and (d) you will take all reasonable measures to protect the Confidential Information against any use or disclosure that is not expressly permitted in this Agreement. You further agree not to share with, or otherwise disclose to, any third party, log-in credentials or any other mechanism that permits access to the Services or any other non-public area of the ZipRecruiter websites.

H. Equitable Relief

You acknowledge that a breach by you of any confidentiality or proprietary rights provision of this Agreement may cause ZipRecruiter irreparable damage, for which the award of damages would not be adequate compensation. Consequently, ZipRecruiter may institute an action to enjoin you from any acts in violation of those provisions, which remedy shall be cumulative and not exclusive, and additionally, ZipRecruiter may seek the entry of an injunction enjoining any breach or threatened breach of those provisions, in addition to any other relief to which we may be entitled at law or in equity.

I. No Publicity

You shall not publicly disclose, issue any press release nor make any other public statement, nor otherwise communicate with the media, concerning the existence of this Agreement or the subject matter hereof, or the relationship with us without the prior written approval of our legal department. You further agree not to misrepresent or embellish your relationship with us. You agree to refer any inquiry that you receive from the media or other third parties, concerning this Agreement, the Services, and/or ZipRecruiter, to our legal department at: [email protected].

J. Electronic Contracting

Your use of the Services includes the ability to enter into agreements and/or to make transactions electronically. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOUR ELECTRONIC SUBMISSIONS CONSTITUTE YOUR AGREEMENT AND INTENT TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT YOUR INTENT TO BE BOUND BY ELECTRONIC SUBMISSIONS APPLIES TO ALL RECORDS RELATING TO TRANSACTIONS YOU ENTER INTO ON ANY ZIPRECRUITER WEBSITE, INCLUDING NOTICES OF CANCELLATION, POLICIES, CONTRACTS, AND APPLICATIONS.

K. Miscellaneous

Any waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be effective only if in writing and signed by ZipRecruiter. No failure by ZipRecruiter to exercise, or to delay in exercising, any rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver hereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder by ZipRecruiter preclude any other or future exercise of that right or any other right hereunder by ZipRecruiter. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not affect the validity or operation of any other provision and such invalid provision shall be deemed to be severed from this Agreement.
