5. User Responsibilities

Account Information: You are responsible for maintaining accurate and complete account information. You must keep your password confidential and notify us immediately of any unauthorized access.

Legal Compliance: You agree to comply with all applicable laws and regulations when using our Platform, including employment laws in your jurisdiction.

Fair Hiring Practices: You agree not to discriminate against candidates based on race, gender, age, religion, disability, or other protected characteristics. You are solely responsible for employment decisions and compliance with labor laws.

6. Candidate Verification

Our Verification Process: We verify candidate profiles and validate their information during signup, including identity, email, and work history. We display verified badges on genuine profiles to help you identify trusted candidates.

Your Due Diligence: However, candidate information may change over time. While we strive to maintain profile accuracy, we recommend that you conduct your own verification and background checks before finalizing any hire. You should not rely solely on our verification and should independently verify candidate qualifications, experience, and credentials.

We are not liable for any inaccuracies in candidate profiles discovered after hire. It is your responsibility to verify all information before making employment decisions.

7. Candidate Conduct

Candidates must provide honest and accurate information in their profiles. We reserve the right to suspend accounts for false information, fraudulent behavior, or violation of platform guidelines.

Our liability is limited to the fees you paid in the 12 months prior to the claim.
