Terms and Conditions

1. About these terms

Jora Jobs (“we”, “us”, “our”) runs an online job board. These terms are an agreement between you and us. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information and forms part of these terms. If you use Jora Jobs for a business, you accept these terms on behalf of that business.

2. Accounts

• You sign in with a Google account. Keep that account secure; you are responsible for activity under your account.
• You must be at least 14 years old. If you are under 18, you need a parent's or guardian's permission.
• Each account is either a job seeker (candidate) account or an employer (company) account.
• The information you give us must be true, accurate and kept up to date.
• Tell us straight away if you think your account has been used without your permission.

3. Using the website as a job seeker

• Only apply for jobs you are genuinely interested in, using truthful information.
• When you apply, you agree that we share your profile, CV and application with that employer.
• We do not guarantee that you will get an interview or a job, or that an employer will reply.
• Check each employer and job offer yourself before accepting it or sharing sensitive information. See our safe job search tips.

4. Using the website as an employer

• Your company information and verification documents must be genuine and belong to your business.
• Job ads must be for real, current vacancies and describe the role, pay and conditions honestly.
• You must not charge candidates any fee, or ask for payment, bank details or identity documents before a genuine written offer of employment.
• You must comply with all laws that apply to your recruitment, including employment, anti-discrimination, privacy and immigration laws, such as the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) in Australia and the Employment Relations Act 2000 and Human Rights Act 1993 in New Zealand.
• Use candidates' information only to assess them for the job they applied for, keep it secure and delete it when you no longer need it.
• Companies must be verified, and each job ad is reviewed before it is published. We may decline, edit for formatting, or remove any job ad at our discretion.

5. API

Employers and administrators may use our API with tokens created in their account. Keep tokens secret; anyone with a token can act for your account. Respect the rate limits and do not use the API to overload or interfere with the website. Jobs sent through the API are subject to these terms in the same way as jobs posted on the website. We may change or withdraw the API and revoke tokens that are misused.

6. Things you must not do

• Post anything false, misleading, discriminatory, offensive, illegal or that infringes someone else's rights.
• Advertise pyramid schemes, multi-level marketing, “work from home” schemes that require payment, or anything that is not a genuine job.
• Collect or use other users' information for anything other than its intended purpose, including sending unsolicited marketing.
• Copy, scrape or harvest content or data from the website by automated means without our written permission.
• Try to access accounts or parts of the website you are not authorised to use, or interfere with its security or operation.
• Upload viruses or harmful code.
• Impersonate another person or business.

7. Your content

You keep ownership of the content you add, such as your profile, CV, company profile and job ads. You give us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, display, format and share that content as needed to run and promote the website, including showing job ads in search engines and job-search services. This licence ends when the content is removed, except for copies we must keep by law or that were already shared with employers you applied to.

8. Job ads from other sources

Some job ads are gathered from public job sources and published after our review. The information in those ads comes from the original advertiser. If you are the employer and want to manage or remove such an ad, please contact us.

9. Our role

Jora Jobs is a platform that brings job seekers and employers together. We are not a recruitment agency and not a party to any employment relationship. Employers are responsible for their job ads, recruitment decisions and offers. Although we verify companies and review job ads, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of content provided by users or the conduct of any user.

10. Fees

Using Jora Jobs is currently free for job seekers and employers. Job seekers will never be charged to apply for jobs. We may introduce optional paid services for employers, such as featured job ads; we will publish the prices and terms before you buy them.

11. Suspension and termination

You can stop using Jora Jobs at any time and ask us to delete your account. We may suspend or close an account, or remove content, if we reasonably believe these terms have been broken, to protect users, or if required by law. Where appropriate we will tell you why.

12. Availability and changes to the service

We work to keep the website available and secure, but we do not promise it will always be available or free of errors. We may change, add or remove features from time to time.

13. Consumer law and liability

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law, the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (NZ) or any other law that cannot be excluded. To the extent permitted by law:

• the website is provided “as is” and we exclude all warranties not expressly stated in these terms;
• we are not liable for any indirect or consequential loss, or for loss of profits, data or opportunity, arising from your use of the website, any job ad or any dealings between users;
• where our liability cannot be excluded but can be limited, it is limited to supplying the services again or paying the cost of having them supplied again.

If you use Jora Jobs for business purposes, you agree to indemnify us against claims arising from your content, your job ads or your breach of these terms, except to the extent caused by our own negligence.

14. Links to other websites

Job ads and profiles may link to other websites. We are not responsible for their content, practices or availability.

15. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The new version applies from the date it is published here. If the changes are significant, we will let registered users know. If you keep using the website after a change, you accept the updated terms.

16. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia. You and we submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Queensland, Australia. This does not take away rights you have under the consumer laws of the place where you live.
