Use Of Site And Content

You will ensure that your use of our Site is fair, reasonable and not excessive. Referralrecruitment has the sole discretion to determine whether your use of our Site if unfair, unreasonable and/or excessive.

Referralrecruitment can be used privately or as well publicly (optional). Job postings in Referralrecruitment can be kept private on your own Private Job Board (internal, by invitation only) like a "closed" system; these positions may be 'sensitive' searches, very geographically restricted or just a desire by the Recruiter to limit the number of Referrers and/or be selective in the group of people to invite as Referrers (e.g. a peer group). It is optional to make the job postings also public on the Public Job Board (external, visible to anyone) on the Referralrecruitment website like an "open" system.

Referralrecruitment is international. Although the default language (of the use) of the application is English, job descriptions and referral e-mail messages can be customized/personalized to the preferred language of the users.

Referralrecruitment makes no claims that the content of the Site may be lawfully viewed or downloaded with the laws of your jurisdiction. Access to the content of the Site may not be legal to certain persons or in certain countries. If you access the Site, you do so at your own risk and are responsible for compliance with the laws of your jurisdiction.
The Site acts only as a venue for Recruiters to post job listings with a Referral Reward, Referrers to recommend Candidates and to earn Referral Rewards, and Candidates who send applications and resumes directly to Recruiters.
Referralrecruitment is not involved in the actual posting, referral, hiring and rejection processes and activities between Recruiters, Referrers and Candidates. As a result, Referralrecruitment has no control over the quality, safety or legality of these processes and activities.
The user is solely responsible for the content submitted to the Site, including its legality, reliability, form and accuracy, and the use of the Site, including without limitation, the consequences of all job postings, referral e-mail messages or other e-mail messages, applications, resumes, files, images, or other materials that you post on, send, transmit through, link to the Site.

Referrralrecruitment does not, and cannot, screen or censor all content on the Site and all communications through the Site and is therefore not required to monitor, police or remove content submitted by you or any other user. The data submitted to a user account remain the property of the user.
You understand and agree that Referralrecruitment has the right (but not the obligation) to pre-screen, refuse, suspend (temporarily or perpetually), (re)move, delete the display of any content for any other reason, including but not limited to violating guidelines, violating to the Terms And Conditions or inappropriateness.
You acknowledge that any reliance on material posted by other users will be at your own risk.
Referralrecruitment does not represent or guarantee the truthfulness, accuracy or reliability of any content posted by users or endorse any opinions expressed by users.

Referralrecruitment provides alert mechanisms to help make sure everyone is treated fairly such as "flagging" intended to encourage Recruiters to pay the Referral Reward and the Referral Success Fee in case that a Candidate is hired if the Recruiter hires, satisfactorily completes a business arrangement with, transacts with or successfully utilizes the Candidate that applied to the job posting with the Referral Reward through Referralrecruitment.
Referrers and Candidates must alert/bring to the attention through flagging in the system if the Candidate statuses are not up-to-date reflected on the Site. Referrer(s) need(s) to flag reward (being entitled to a reward) and Candidate needs to flag hired (being hired) only if they are 100% sure that the Candidate has been hired but has not been marked hired by the Recruiter on the Site.
This way the Referrer and/or Candidate notify us when they become aware of any Candidate being employed by a Recruiter which not has been updated yet by the Recruiter on the Site. Flagging is very serious at Referralrecruitment so please flag with care.

Referralrecruitment keeps statistics such as a unique internal user feedback rating system to gauge and maintain quality of its users like feedback rates on: Recruiters (responsiveness, job fulfillment success rates), Referrers (quality of referrals, referral success rates), Candidates (assessment rates on pre-qualification, relevancy rates), and other ratings.
Referralrecruitment's users gain star ratings based on the frequency of their activities, and how often they are involved in successful transactions. It will be able to show users how individual's star ratings compare statistically to other users in the system. If the user doesn't have a competitive record, users will favour the requests made by someone who does. Over time, users will strive to maintain high ratings in order to maintain the most rewarding participation in the system.
Although the internal user feedback rating system is currently not yet visible for all users, due to the time needed to grow and gain more history to calculate accurate ratings, users must already pay attention at establishing a good track record on credibility and reputation once these internal ratings are shared with all users. Referralrecruitment utilizes this collective wisdom to prioritize and to help you make informed decisions about users whom you don't personally know.
Also the Recruiter can define filter questions for each job, anyone who does not answer the Recruiter's questions correctly the Recruiter can drop before taking the recruitment process further such as the invitation for an interview. In nearby future Referralrecruitment will facilitate the filter questions feature also in the system before a Candidate is able to apply.
You acknowledge and agree that it is prohibited bringing new business developed through Referralrecruitment offline, apart from the direct offline contact between Recruiters and Candidates in the recruitment process, and anyone attempting to violate this policy will be immediately removed from the Site.
Referralrecruitment shall not become involved in any dispute which may arise between users. You acknowledge and agree that we do not act as an agent for users nor do we act as an intermediary between users, and that we shall not enter into correspondence or discussions or negotiations with any user on your behalf. You agree to settle any disputes between third parties regarding content such as job postings on your own responsibility. You assume all risks associated with dealing with other users with whom you come in contact through the Site.
Referralrecruitment is not responsible for damages and disputes from content between Recruiters, Referrers, Candidates and any other third party. If, however, you have legitimate concerns or complaints about a particular user or its activities in connection with the use of the Site, including but not limited to incorrect job postings, unsolicited referral e-mail messages, these can be directed to us using the contact details set out on our Contact Us page.

For security and privacy reasons, Referralrecruitment will automatically log you out and require you to log in again after a too long period of inactivity. Approximately 45 minutes for a Recruiter and 30 minutes for a Referrer/Candidate, provided the check box "Keep me logged in on this computer" is not checked marked on the Home page.

You agree to immediately notify Referralrecruitment in any case of violation of the use of the Site and content.
Without limiting our other remedies, Referralrecruitment reserves the right to deactivate (and consequently not able do any action) or cancel (and consequently not able to login) your right to use the Site at any time and for any reason, including without limitation, where you are in breach of the Terms And Conditions or where we have reasonable grounds to believe that you have breached the Terms And Conditions.

Job postings from Recruiters

Once registered and logged in, the Recruiter is immediately active and may already posts jobs with Referral Rewards to his Private Job Board (internal/by invitation only) and (if as well to be made public) to the (optional) Public Job Board (external/visible to anyone) on the Site. However, only after verification and approval of: registration of the user (account), subscription (receipt payment), job posting; the job posting will appear open (from suspended) and displayed on the Site (within 1 working day of the date that all conditions have been met).
If it is the first time job posting it may be you will be contacted.
Note: by posting a job, the Recruiter is obliged to offer a Referral Reward with a minimum of EUR 1,500 or equivalent (excl. VAT).
In the job posting, an estimate of the Candidate's first-year gross annual base salary needs to be included in case of a permanent employee or an estimate of the first-year gross annualized base salary based on the daily/hourly rate in case of a temporary employee for the position in question. For the avoidance of doubt, this is simply an estimate and used as a reference and may change depending on the final figures that you agree with the hired Candidate.
Once you start to post or edit a job listing you need to complete and submit your job posting in one time; it is currently not possible to save the job without posting it to the job board then come back at a later date and complete your posting.
You can edit the details of a job posting at any time in your user account. Only some fields may be edited in order to keep the most important characteristics of the original job posting the same and not to change it into a completely different job. All changes will affect all submittals and will have also affect on submittals that the Recruiter has already received; for example an increase of the Referral Reward.

There are no restrictions on: the number of job postings during the subscription term, the duration of a job posting within the subscription term, the number of job postings on behalf of different clients, the number of job referral e-mail messages, the number of job postings or recipients included in the referral e-mail message, the number of Referrers in referral paths, the number of Candidates for each job posting.
Recruitment agencies, headhunters do not need to disclose their clients' (company) name.
You can't post jobs of more than one company nor more than one kind of job (listing) within one job posting.
Under no condition can Referralrecruitment be held liable for possible technical problems and/or shortcomings in mentioned job posting(s) such as display of a logo in case of a Recruiter's company.

Referralrecruitment offers the ability to collect and review referrals and interest to job postings via the Site. Therefore, if the Recruiter post a job listing, it has to be text only and the Recruiter acknowledges and agrees not to include or reveal his/her e-mail or web address (i.e. no hyperlinks) or any other personal direct contact information in the job description of the job posting.
In case a person does have important questions, inquiries about a job posting, before becoming a user, referring job(s) to others, expressing interest in a job, the user may contact Referralrecruitment via the Contact Us page.
Referralrecruitment will contact the Recruiter to get the answers on these questions and/or inquiries on behalf of this person.

Once a user expresses interest in a job posting, the system will be updated accordingly for the applicable user accounts, the (latent/passive or active) Candidate receives instructions for the application from Referralrecruitment in which also the full name and e-mail id of the Recruiter of the job posting will be disclosed to the Candidate in order to apply (directly). Only the Recruiter receives already a notification in which also some of the Candidate's details will be disclosed such as full name and e-mail id; the Candidate is also copied in this notification e-mail message.

The Candidate needs to send the application and resume directly to the Recruiter via his/her own personal (confidential) e-mail message application. The Recruiter will contact the Candidate directly to proceed with the recruitment process. We strongly encourage the Recruiter to contact Candidates as quickly as possible and keep them up to date during the time the Recruiter does have the Candidates under review or being accepted.

The Recruiter acknowledges that Referralrecruitment is not responsible for the quality of the Candidate regarding the job requirements as described by the Recruiter. Therefore Referralrecruitment will give no guarantees whatsoever on the suitability of the Candidate. The Recruiter has the discretion in determining the criteria used in hiring the Candidate(s).

Detailed and accurate job descriptions are extremely important. The more specific the information the more on-target the Candidates are likely to be. On the Referralrecruitment's job description form you need to include "must haves" which are requirements that are absolutely essential if the Candidate is to be considered qualified. Each Referrer and/or Candidate must to check off every "must have" prior to submitting their referral and/or expressing interest. They are prevented from submitting the referral and/or expressing interest if they cannot confirm that their referral and/or expressed interest and subsequently the application meet your minimum qualifications.

Please note that Referralrecruitment shall not otherwise become involved in the recruitment process.
The Recruiter must inform Referralrecruitment immediately via the Contact Us page but in any event within 1 working day when the Recruiter believes that he/she is already aware of the identity of a proposed Candidate via the Site. When the identity is already revealed through the Site the Recruiter must provide proof clearly demonstrating the Recruiter did not get this through the Site. If the Recruiter is not capable in doing so Referralrecruitment will act as if the Candidate is hired through the Site.

The Recruiter is obliged to keep the job posting such as the job details, the status of the job (in particular when the job posting needs to be closed (withdrawn)), the statuses of Candidates (in particular when the Candidate status needs to be marked "hired") up-to-date. For example the Candidate status is ultimately hired or rejected. We may send the Recruiters reminders to check all of their pending applications. It will also reduce or eliminate any unsolicited e-mails from Referrers or Candidates checking on the status of their referrals or applications.
Closed jobs will not be shown on the active Public Job Board of the Referralrecruitment website.
All registered users agree to inform Referralrecruitment via the Contact Us page when they become aware that the job posting is not up-to-date.

The Recruiter is obliged to fulfill his/her obligation to pay out the Referral Reward and the Referral Success Fee to Referralrecruitment. However, if the Recruiter does not acknowledge the hiring of the Candidate, Referralrecruitment is not responsible for the Referral Reward payment on behalf of the Referrer(s) or for enforcement of the Recruiter's obligation to pay the Referral Reward.
Referralrecruitment cannot be liable for any disputes between users.

The Recruiter may use the same job posting for additional/next hires.

The Recruiter may close (withdraw) the job posting at any time, provided there are no application procedures running anymore and consequently all existing Candidates statuses have been updated from "interested" to "hired" or "rejected". You also understand and agree that the content posted by you may remain on the Site after its closing date for a certain period of time, and you may not be able to remove or delete the content.
The Recruiter has the obligation to close (withdraw) the job posting immediately when the job posting is cancelled because of hire(s) via the Site or the job position is already filled in another way than via the Site and as result no employee(s) are needed anymore.
In case the job posting is not true, up-to-date or complete, or in case Referralrecruitment has a reasonable presumption that the job posting is not correct or inappropriate, Referralrecruitment has the right, in its sole discretion, to reject or remove the job posting from the Site.

Recruiter can increase the level of exposure that a job posting receives such as:
Job postings may be displayed on the Public Job Board of the Referralrecruitment website and visible to anyone (optional). The jobs postings on the Public Job Board are also included in the major job search engines like Google (Base).
Referralrecruitment can also distribute job postings via (newsletter) e-mail alerts, RSS, websites (including blogs) with a Referralrecruitment's job listing "widget". A widget is a stand-alone application that can be embedded into third party websites by any user on a page where they have rights of authorship (e.g. a webpage, blog, or profile on a social media site) and potentially earning money for facilitating job postings, referrals and applications. Widgets allow users to turn personal content into dynamic web apps that can be shared on websites where the code can be installed. For example, if user wants to put the Referralrecruitment's job listing "widget" of job postings on his/her own Facebook profile, the user could do this by copying and pasting the embedded code into his/her profile on Facebook.

Referrals of Recruiters and Referrers

Once the job posting is open, the Recruiter can create a personal referral e-mail message, customized in his/her own language including a job(s) referral track link to job posting(s), and sends/shares via his/her own personal (confidential) e-mail message application(s), by invitation only, further in his/her social network (employees, family, friends, acquaintances).
A person receives a personal invitation referral e-mail message with job posting(s), directly from the Recruiter or Referrer, or the person sees job posting(s) (if as well made public) displayed on the Public Job Board on the Site. If the person chooses to refer job(s) to others and/or express interest in a job, the person first needs to register as user type Referrer/Candidate (for free) and login on the Site, so that Referralrecruitment's system can add the user to the referral path.
Once registered and logged in, the user Referrer/Candidate is immediately active and can create a personal referral e-mail message and/or expresses interest in a job, customized/personalized in his/her own language including a job(s) referral track link to job posting(s), and sends/shares via own personal (confidential) e-mail message application(s), by invitation only, further in his/her social network.
Note: A referral path will only be displayed/visible once a user expresses interest resulting in a referral path of a Candidate. The users see only the referral paths of which they are member. The Administrator of Referralrecruitment may see, for administrative purposes, the referral paths of all users.

Referralrecruitment keeps track of all referral paths of Referrers which leads to Candidates, possibly multiple degrees of separation across social networks, for all job postings by Recruiters via an unique job(s) referral track link in the referral e-mail message once user registers through Referralrecruitment's website in order to: post job(s), refer job(s) to others who are Candidates or who know good Candidates, and/or express interest in a job.
The Candidate's (hire's) name will only be disclosed (also) to the Referrer(s) in the referral path once hired.

There are no restrictions on: the number of job referral e-mail messages, the number of job postings or recipients included in the referral e-mail message, the number of Referrers in referral paths, the number of Candidates for each job posting.
The user hereby agrees to select only recipients who fit the profile of the Candidate or who know good Candidates. The user agrees to act discreet concerning referred jobs to others and when a user expressed interest in a job, in particular in user's direct work surroundings.
Referralrecruitment can not be held liable for users' actions accomplished under their own authority.
The user acknowledges and agrees that under no circumstances there will arise a labour relationship between the user and Referralrecruitment and Referralrecruitment cannot be considered to be an employer with respect to the use of our Site.

For Recruiters

By registering and using our Site, the Recruiter is entering into a contract based on a per-user access fee, the Recruiter is expressly agreeing that Referralrecruitment is permitted to invoice the Recruiter upon registration (subscription). The Recruiter agrees to pay Referralrecruitment:

the Company Subscription Invoice with:
- Subscription Fee EUR 250 (or equivalent) (excl. VAT) (1 user account, subscription period (term) of 6 months, unlimited job postings (duration)) for Referralrecruitment.

Invoice date is start date of subscription.

All payments in Euros (or equivalent) are payable to Referralrecruitment within 14 days of the date of invoice.
If the status of the Recruiter has been changed to active and the Recruiter didn't get a reaction from us, please contact us via the Contact Us page to notify us to pay the Subscription Fee (membership fee).

Note: membership is for one user account (e-mail id/user-id) and may be shared with another colleagues within the same registered company but not with users of any other company. Violation of this rule will result in cancellation of your membership.

Upon expiration of the subscription term (membership period), the subscription will be automatically renewed (extended) and as result charged based on a recurring billing cycle unless it is terminated (cancelled) in writing before or at the end date of subscription by the Recruiter. In case of no termination by the Recruiter and as result the auto-renewal will be applicable, the subscription will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods of the same duration as the subscription term originally selected, at the then-current Subscription Fee. Your non-termination or continued (renewed) use of the Site reaffirms that Referralrecruitment is authorized to charge you in accordance with the Terms And Conditions.
To terminate (cancel) your subscription at any time prior to the next subscription term and billing cycle, go to "My Profile" and change field "User Status" into "Terminated". Note: Only change user status to "terminated" if you do not use your subscription (term) anymore as you will not be able to login anymore and may not use your subscription until the end of your then-current subscription term. Once the user status is changed to "terminated" on or before the end date subscription, your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires. You may request termination of the user account (cancellation of membership) also via the Contact Us page.

Once you have terminated your user account, you are still obliged to pay any pending obligations.You will not be eligible for a pro-rated refund/credit of any portion of the Subscription Fee paid for the then-current subscription period and/or Referral Rewards paid for hired Candidates that are subsequently unsuccessfully placed. When all obligations have been met your user account will be subsequently deleted.
In case you want to cancel the termination in order to subscribe again send a request via the Contact Us page.

By posting a job on the Site, the Recruiter is entering into a contract based on a pay-per-hire job posting, the Recruiter is obliged to offer a Referral Reward with a minimum of EUR 1,500 or equivalent (excl. VAT). The Recruiter agrees to pay the Referral Success Invoice to Referralrecruitment if the Recruiter hires a Candidate that applies or is referred via Referralrecruitment to the conditions described in your job listing and reward conditions you posted.
You agree not to post a job with a Referral Reward and its related fees that you cannot pay or do not intend to pay.
Only registered users (Referrers) in the successful referral path to the hired Candidate (excluding the Recruiter) are eligible for (entitled to) the Referral Reward.

When the Recruiter signs an employment agreement (temporary or for an undefined period) with a Candidate proposed through the Site, or the Candidate signs an employment agreement with a third party, other than the Recruiter, but with intermediate services from the Recruiter, resulting from a proposal on the Site, the Recruiter must report the start of the employment on the Site on or before the hiring by going to the "Candidate Details" web page and completing the field 'Start Date Employment" and clicking the "Hire" button.

(Only) upon hiring a Candidate for any Recruiter's job via the Site, the Recruiter is entering into a contract, the Recruiter agrees to pay Referralrecruitment:

the Referral Success Invoice with:
- Referral Reward (with a minimum of EUR 1,500 or equivalent) (excl. VAT) on behalf of the Referrer(s).
- Referral Success Fee (25% of the Referral Reward with a minimum of EUR 750 or equivalent) (excl. VAT) for Referralrecruitment.

Invoice date is start date of employment.

If you do not hire a Candidate through Referralrecruitment you will not be charged the Referral Reward or Referral Success Fee.

Recruiter may use the same job posting for additional/next hires. For each Candidate hired per job posting via the Site, the Referral Success Invoice is applicable, even if a Candidate is hired via the Site for a different job position than the Recruiter posted.

Note: the Recruiter is allowed to modify the Referral Reward between the date of posting and the date of hiring. This modification may only be an increase of the Referral Reward. All other related amounts will then also be updated accordingly.
All payments in Euros (or equivalent) are payable to Referralrecruitment within 14 days of the date of invoice.

If the status of the Candidate has been changed to "hired" and the Recruiter didn't get a reaction from us, please contact us via the Contact Us page to notify us to pay the Referral Success Invoice.

The Recruiter has to pay the Referral Reward and the Referral Success Fee associated with the hiring directly to Referralrecruitment and Referralrecruitment will pay the Referral Reward to the Referrer(s). So the Recruiter does not have to pay the Referral Reward directly to the Referrer(s).
Full disbursement (distribution) of the Referral Reward to the Referrer(s) in the successful referral path is conditional and will only take place after receipt payment from the Recruiter and if the guarantee expires 60 calendar days after the start date of employment (like a probation period) of the new hired Candidate for the referral process to be complete.
After the 60th day, payment processing to the Referrer(s) will begin and no refund to the Recruiter will be possible.

If the employment of the Candidate hired is terminated within (employed less than) 60 calendar days of the start date of employment (like a probation period), you are eligible for a Referral Reward refund.
To receive this 60-day money back guarantee (only) on the Referral Reward, the Recruiter must report the termination of the employment on the Site on or before the 60th calendar day, by going to the "Candidate Details" web page and completing the 'End Date Employment" field and clicking the "Reject" button.

Upon rejecting (terminating the employment of) the hired Candidate within the 60-day guarantee period, Referralrecruitment agrees to pay the Recruiter:

the Credit Referral Reward Invoice with:
- Credit Referral Reward (excl. VAT) for Recruiter

Invoice date is end date of employment.

All payments in Euros (or equivalent) are payable to the Recruiter within 14 days of the date of invoice.
If the status of the Recruiter's hired Candidate has been changed to "rejected" and the Recruiter didn't get a reaction from us, please contact us via the Contact Us page to collect the Credit Referral Reward.The Recruiter must claim the Credit Referral Reward within 30 days of the end date of employment. If the Recruiter does not, his/her right to receive payment will terminate.
If the hired Candidate leaves after the guarantee period not any refund to the Recruiter will be applicable.

Referrers own the Candidates they refer/submit for as long the job posting exists; the Recruiter owes a reward if, during this period, he/she hires a Candidate for his/her job posting.
If the Recruiter hires a Candidate, who was initially referred through Referralrecruitment, for an another job and/or at a later moment the Recruiter is still obliged to pay the Referral Reward plus the Referral Success Fee to Referralrecruitment.
Candidates who applied to a Recruiter outside of Referralrecruitment in the preceding 6 months belong to that Recruiter, and not the submitting Referrer or Referralrecruitment; i.e., if the Recruiter hires the Candidate, the Recruiter will not owe a reward and/or fee.

The Recruiter agrees, also on behalf of his/her client and any other third party in case the Recruiter acts as a professional third party recruiter (at a recruitment agency, acting on behalf of clients), to keep any Candidate details confidential in compliance with the relevant privacy legislation regarding protection of personal data.
The Recruiter agrees to notify Referralrecruitment immediately should any hire be made by report the hiring on the Site under "Candidate Details" and the button "Hire".
The Recruiter agrees to pay the Referral Success Invoice for any Hire for a job posting on the Site or for a(n) (another) job not posted on the Site but the hired Candidate comes via Referralrecruitment.
The disclosure by the Recruiter to a third party, also other than his/her client in case the Recruiter acts as a professional third party recruiter (at a recruitment agency, acting on behalf of clients), of any Candidate details introduced through Referralrecruitment, which results in an engagement with that third party, renders the Recruiter liable to payment of the Referral Success Invoice with no entitlement to any refund.

For Referrers

If a person chooses to refer job(s) to others and/or express interest in a job, the person first needs to register (for free) and login on the Site, so that Referralrecruitment's system can add the user to the referral path.
If the user does not register and login, the user will not be eligible to earn (a share of) any Referral Reward offered.

The Referral Reward will be shared equally by the number of registered persons (Referrers), in the first successful referral path, who have together connected the hiring organization (Recruiter) and the hired Candidate (hire). Upon hiring of the Candidate by the Recruiter, Referralrecruitment shall contact each Referrer by e-mail to notify him/her of this and to arrange payment of his/her share (portion) of the Referral Reward, each Referrer in the successful referral path will receive by e-mail a Referral Reward Voucher as written proof that they are entitled to receive the applicable disbursement (distribution) of the Referral Reward from Referralrecruitment when all conditions are met.

Thus, upon hiring a Candidate, Referralrecruitment agrees to pay the Referrer:

the Referral Reward Voucher with:
- Referral Reward (equally shared) (excl. VAT) for Referrer(s.)

Invoice/voucher date is 60 calendar days after the start date of employment.

All payments in Euros (or equivalent) are payable to the Referrer within 14 days of the date of invoice/voucher.
If the status of the Referrer's referred Candidate has been changed to "hired" and the Referrer didn't get a reaction from us, please contact us via the Contact Us page to collect the Referral Reward.
The Referrer must claim his/her share of the Referral Reward as soon as the hired Candidate starts his/her new job in order for you to be eligible to receive your portion of it, but in any event within 90 days of the start date of employment via the Contact Us page. If the Referrer does not, his/her right/claim to receive payment will terminate.

Referralrecruitment will not be able to disburse monies to the Referrer(s) unless we have received payment of the Referral Reward from the Recruiter that originally posted the job. There are no assurances that the Referrer(s) will receive the Referral Reward if the Recruiter does not pay. Under no circumstances Referralrecruitment can be held liable for not paying the Referral Reward by the Recruiter to Referralrecruitment (on behalf of the Referrer(s)) and consequently not able to pay (distribute) the disbursement to the Referrer(s).

When the Candidate hired (hire) has completed 60 calendar days of employment, the payment process of the Referral Reward Vouchers will proceed and no refund to the Recruiter will be possible.
If the Referrer earns a Referral Reward and is a tax payer, the Referrer is in all cases at any time personally responsible to declare the income to comply with the local tax authorities, fiscally the Referral Reward may be considered as a "conciliation fee" typically categorised under remaining income of labour or similar, and for paying any taxes which becomes due by you as a result of our payment to you of the Referral Reward. Referralrecruitment can be in no manner be held liable for not fulfilling this obligation.

Referralrecruitment will fully comply with disclosure requirements as required by the tax authorities for monies disbursed by Referralrecruitment to the Referrer and thus may ask the Referrer for relevant personal information to facilitate such disclosure. Referralrecruitment will not be able to disburse monies to the Referrer unless he/she will have provided such information like copy passport, id-card, tax identification number, social security number, residence.

Only the Referral Reward Voucher sent by e-mail by Referralrecruitment to the Referrer(s) in the successful referral path is considered valid. All Referral Reward Vouchers will be subject to verification at the time of presentation. Any other use of such materials, including any copying, reproduction, modification, sale, distribution, transmission, republication, downloading, display, posting, performance, or other exploitation thereof by any means or medium without the prior written permission of Referralrecruitment will render the Referral Reward Voucher invalid.

In lieu of personally accepting a Referral Reward for the participation of the Referrer in a successful hire, the Referrer have the option to donate his/her share of the Referral Reward to a charity of his/her own choice. Referralrecruitment can also make this donation in the Referrer's name.
In case the Referrer decides to donate his/her full Referral Reward amount to a charity, Referralrecruitment will in addition also donate half of its Referral Success Fee to this same charity, provided the Referrer will have Referralrecruitment make this joint donation (in the Referrer's and Referralrecruitment's names). Referralrecruitent will provide proof of this joint donation to the Referrer.
Well-known charity organizations are: UNICEF, World Wide Fund for Nature/World Wildlife Fund, Amnesty International, Red Cross.

In case of a direct hired Candidate (hire) by the Recruiter through Referralrecruitment, no Referral Reward will be applicable but only the Referral Success Fee. This means that a user (direct contact) who applies directly through Referralrecruitment and gets hired will not receive the Referral Reward. Note: if a user refers first himself/herself, it is still treated as a direct hire as he/she is the same person. Though, in case the Candidate asks a friend to refer first, then also the Referral Reward will be applicable (upon discretion to be shared with this friend as "stand-in-Referrer").

Referralrecruitment prevents that more than one Referrer in different referral paths can refer one and the same Candidate that is hired for the same job posting.
In case the same job has already been referred to a user (Referrer/Candidate), only the first job referred in the applicable referral path will be taken into account and displayed and any other duplicated job referred will be blocked (null and void). Thus only the Referrer(s) in the first successful referral path who referred the job to the hired Candidate will be (equally) rewarded.

In the unlikely event that the system fails to block a duplicate submission, the winner of the reward will be Referrer(s) in the referral path who first submitted the Candidate, as determined by the date and time stamp on the submissions.

Referralrecruitment prevents a bypass (circumvention) of already existing referral paths via the Public Job Board of the same user for the same job.
If a user wants to refer job(s) to others and/or express interest in a job on the Public Job Board but the same user is for the same job already a member in an existing referral path then the bypassed (circumvented) part of the existing referral path will also be taken into account (added) once this new referral path is created i.e. it is applicable in the event that the job offering is "private and public" (internal and external/visible to anyone) and the same job posting is referred by the same user e-mail id as a member in an already existing referral path.

Referrers own the Candidates they refer/submit for as long the job posting exists; the Recruiter owes a reward if, during this period, he/she hires a Candidate for his/her job posting.
Candidates who applied to a Recruiter outside of Referralrecruitment in the preceding six months belong to that Recruiter, and not the submitting Referrer or Referralrecruitment. If the Recruiter hires the Candidate, the Recruiter will not owe a reward and/or fee.

Important: to be eligible for the Referral Reward, a person must not reply or forward the referral e-mail message but must click on the system-generated job(s) referral track link to see job(s) details to refer job(s) to others and/or express interest in a job and to register as a member of the referral path.
If the person is not a registered user then he/she needs to register first on the Site. If the person is already a registered user then he/she needs to login and refer to others and/or express interest.
A person is never entitled to claim the Referral Reward if he/she informed the hired Candidate about the job posting by not registering on the Site and using a different manner to inform the Candidate e.g. by just forwarding the e-mail, or calling the Candidate.
Thus, only registered users (Referrers) in the successful referral path to the hired Candidate (excluding the Recruiter) are eligible for the Referral Reward.

While Referralrecruitment shall make every effort to track the progress of job postings and referrals, we shall not be responsible for the failure by the Recruiter to inform us of the hire of a Candidate. We recommend that the user maintains contact with the Referrers and Candidates (although the names of Candidates and their contact information are withheld (kept confidential) at this point for all Referrers if they are not hired yet) and notify us via the button "Flag Reward" on the web page "Candidate Details" on the Site and/or via the Contact Us page when you believe and/or become aware you have made a successful referral of any Candidate being employed by a Recruiter which has not been updated yet by the Recruiter on the Site. It is a good idea to make sure that the members of a referral path are happy for each other being in the referral path in particular the Candidate for the Referrers, which also ensures that everybody will get their share of the Referral Reward in case the Candidate is successfully hired. We recommend that Referrers keeping in touch with any other Referrer and the Candidate in the successful referral path and to see when the Candidate starts with the Recruiter and letting Referralrecruitment know via the Contact Us page if you get this information.
If a Recruiter informs Referralrecruitment of a successful referral before you do we will of course relay to you to let you know and arrange payment.
When Referralrecruitment is informed by you of a successful referral we shall use reasonable endeavours to verify this and obtain the payment of the Referral Success Invoice including the Referral Reward on behalf of the Referrer(s).

To terminate (cancel) your registration at any time, go to "My Profile" and change field "User Status" into "Terminated". Note: Only change user status to "terminated" if you do not use your registration anymore as you will not be able to login anymore.
Once you have terminated your user account, you will not be eligible for any Referral Rewards earned on behalf of Referrers from Recruiters for Candidates that are subsequently successfully placed. When all obligations have been met your user account will be subsequently deleted.
In case you want to cancel the termination in order to register again send a request via the Contact Us page.

For Candidates

In principle no invoicing and/or payments are applicable for Candidates and/or hired Candidates (hires).
Note: the Recruiter is allowed to modify the Referral Reward between the date of posting and the date of hiring. This modification may only be an increase of the Referral Reward. All other related amounts will then also be updated accordingly.

Referrers own the Candidates they refer/submit for as long the job posting exists; the Recruiter owes a reward if, during this period, he/she hires a Candidate for his/her job posting.
Candidates who applied to a Recruiter outside of Referralrecruitment in the preceding six months belong to that Recruiter, and not the submitting Referrer or Referralrecruitment. If the Recruiter hires the Candidate, the Recruiter will not owe a reward and/or fee.

While Referralrecruitment shall make every effort to track the progress of job postings and referrals, we shall not be responsible for the failure by the Recruiter to inform us of the hire of a Candidate. We recommend that the user maintains contact with the Referrers and Candidates (although the names of the Candidates and their contact information are withheld (kept confidential) at this point for all Referrers if they are not hired yet) and inform us via the button "Flag Hired" on the web page "Candidate Details" on the Site and/or via the Contact Us page when you have been hired and by a Recruiter which has not been updated yet by the Recruiter on the Site. It is a good idea to make sure that the members of a referral path are happy for each other being in the referral path in particular the Candidate for the Referrers, which also ensures that everybody will get their share of the Referral Reward in case the Candidate is successfully hired. When Referralrecruitment is informed by you of a successful hiring we shall use reasonable endeavours to verify this and obtain the payment of the Referral Success Invoice including the Referral Reward on behalf of the Referrer(s) who helped you to get the job.

For Affiliates

(Only) once a person or organization is engaged (appointed) by Referralrecruitment as an Affiliate in our Affiliate Program, for the purpose of directing (inviting/introducing) Recruiters for registration to the Site, Referralrecruitment will compensate the Affiliate (person/organization) with an Affiliate Voucher with an Affiliate Fee of 30% of the Recruiter's Subscription Fee for each new registered (subscribed) Recruiter to the Site. The Recruiter must fill in upon registration on the "Registration" web page the field "How did you hear about Referralrecruitment?" and select "Affiliate" and fill in the field "Name" the full name and the e-mail id of the Affiliate in order to be able to compensate the Affiliate by Referralrecruitment for his/her/its marketing efforts.
Upon subscription of the new Recruiter directed by the Affiliate, the Affiliate will receive by e-mail an Affiliate Voucher as written proof that the Affiliate is entitled to receive the applicable payment of the Affiliate Fee from Referralrecruitment when all conditions are met.

Thus, upon registration (subscription) of a new Recruiter, directed (invited/introduced) by the Affiliate, to the Site, Referralrecruitment agrees to pay the Affiliate:

the Affiliate Voucher with:
- Affiliate Fee (30% of the Recruiter's Company Subscription Invoice with Subscription Fee) (excl. VAT) for Affiliate.
  (For example, if the Recruiter's Company Subscription Invoice with the Subscription Fee is EUR 250 (or equivalent) (excl. VAT) then the Affiliate Voucher with its Affiliate Fee is EUR 75 (or equivalent) (excl. VAT)).

Voucher date is Recruiter's start date of subscription.
Note: All separate Affiliate Vouchers with its voucher dates during the month will be totalled to one (summarized) monthly Affiliate Voucher at month-end.
Invoice/monthly voucher date is month-end date.

All payments in Euros (or equivalent) are payable to the Affiliate within 14 days of the date of invoice/monthly voucher.
If the status of the Affiliate's directed (invited/introduced) Recruiter has been changed to active and the Affiliate didn't get a reaction from us, please contact us via the Contact Us page to collect your Affiliate Fee.
The Affiliate must claim his/her/its Affiliate Fee within 60 days of the registration date of the directed Recruiter. If the Affiliate does not, his/her/its right to receive payment will terminate.

Referralrecruitment will not be able to pay out monies to the Affiliate unless we have written proof as described above from the Recruiter upon registration that he/she got directed by the Affiliate and from the Affiliate a notification e-mail via the Contact Us page before or on the registration date of the Recruiter on the Site that the Affiliate directed the Recruiter. Under no circumstances Referralrecruitment can be held liable for not paying the Affiliate Fee to the Affiliate if no written proof received in time by Referralrecruitment from both the Recruiter and the Affiliate before or on the registration date of the Recruiter on the Site.
No Affiliate Fee will be applicable in case of: a direct registration of the Recruiter through Referralrecruitment i.e. without mentioning the name of the Affiliate, the person or organization has not been engaged (appointed) as an Affiliate, or no notification e-mail from the Affiliate via the Contact Us page with full name and e-mail id of the Recruiter before or on the registration date of the Recruiter.
Referralrecruitment will not be held responsible for any disputes between Recruiters and Affiliates or any other users.

If the Affiliate earns an Affiliate Fee and is a tax payer, the Affiliate is in all cases at any time responsible to declare the income to comply with the local tax authorities. Fiscally the Affiliate Fee may be considered as a "bring-in fee" typically categorised under remaining income of labour or similar. Referralrecruitment can be in no manner be held liable for not fulfilling this obligation.
Referralrecruitment will fully comply with disclosure requirements as required by the tax authorities for monies paid by Referralrecruitment to the Affiliate and thus may ask the Affiliate for relevant personal/corporate information to facilitate such disclosure. Referralrecruitment will not be able to pay out monies to the Affiliate unless he/she/it will have provided such information like copy passport, id-card, tax identification number, social security number, residence.
Only the Affiliate Voucher sent by e-mail by Referralrecruitment to the Affiliate for a successful registration of a new Recruiter is considered valid. All Affiliate Vouchers will be subject to verification at the time of presentation. Any other use of such materials, including any copying, reproduction, modification, sale, distribution, transmission, republication, downloading, display, posting, performance, or other exploitation thereof by any means or medium without the prior written permission of Referralrecruitment will render the Affiliate Voucher invalid.

The registration of a new Recruiter can only be directed by one Affiliate who directed the Recruiter first on or before the registration date of the new Recruiter. Any other Affiliates for the same Recruiter will be ignored (null and void).

The Affiliate hereby agrees to select only Recruiters who might be interested to use Referralrecruitment.
The Affiliate agrees to act discreet concerning the registration of the Recruiter on the Site.
Referralrecruitment can not be held liable for Affiliate's actions accomplished under his/her/its own authority.

Referralrecruitment reserves the right to vary from time to time all fees and rates such as (minimum) amounts or percentages, with or without notice. When aforementioned occurs, Referralrecruitment will immediately mention this on the Site.

Because of the uncertainty and lack of uniformity of laws in other jurisdictions (particularly as applied to internet sites), it is important to agree that our Site operates solely in Amsterdam, The Netherlands (Europe) (our locality). You are using the internet as your own agent to access and use our Site from the local internet Point Of Presence (POP) here in our locality and you are using the internet or public carrier as your local agent to take delivery of any information, products or services in our locality. This means all operations, services, deliveries, performance and contacts of our Site occur solely in our locality. Our Site does not submit to personal jurisdiction anywhere else and you irrevocably waive any claim to the contrary.

Injunctive Relief

If you violate or exceed the scope of the Terms And Conditions or infringe our proprietary rights, you agree we would be irreparably harmed and may (in addition to other relief and without having to post bond) obtain a court order enjoining you from further mischief.

Technology And Data Transfer

Technology transfer

The transport of technology, technical data and information across national boundaries is regulated by The Netherlands and certain foreign governments. You agree not to directly or indirectly export or re-export any information, software or technology obtained from or through the Site that requires an export license or governmental approval without first obtaining that license or approval. This provision will survive termination of our Terms And Conditions.

European Union residents

If you reside in the European Union (EU) or if any transfer of information between you and our Site is governed by the European Union Data Protection Directive or national laws implementing that Directive, then you consent to the transfer of such information outside of the European Union to your country and to such other countries as may be contemplated by the features and activities provided by the Site.

California residents

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favour at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must materially affected this settlement with the debtor."
