TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR ADVERTISERS USING CAPITALJOBS.COM.AU

Job slots and CV views
In order to find job seekers on the Capital Jobs website, advertisers agree to purchase advertising ‘packs’ containing a number of job slots and CV views.

Job Slots. Job slots enable the advertiser to post job advertisements on the website in relevant categories. A single job slot enables the advertiser to advertise one job at a time, for a period of at least thirty days (depending upon the duration of the ‘pack’ purchased) – that is, advertisers may choose to advertise multiple jobs during the life of the job slot, but only one advertisement can show in that slot at any one time. Advertisers will not be permitted to post advertisements to the website if their job slot allocation has been exhausted. Advertisers can easily purchase further ‘packs’ which will provide them with further slots. The advertiser is responsible for managing their job slot allocation and managing which advertisements appear in those slots.

CV Views. Advertisers are also granted a number of CV views per day as part of their advertising ‘pack’. Advertisers have the opportunity to search the Capital Jobs job seeker database for prospective candidates and view their CV details on request. Again, advertisers can easily purchase further ‘packs’ which will provide them with more CV views per day, if required. Advertisers are to use the CV and other job seeker information to match against their organisation’s current vacancies. This information is not to be used for any other purpose.

Payment, Refunds and Credit Checks
All monies owed to Capital Jobs by advertisers are to be paid within 7 business days of invoice. Fees are not refundable once payment has been made, unless in situations where a technical issue precludes the posting of advertisements.

Capital Jobs reserves the right to remove existing advertisements, disable advertiser accounts without notice, or ban advertisers from future use of the Capital Jobs site, if payment is not made within the required period.

Capital Jobs reserves the right to obtain credit information about the advertiser from a credit reporting agency or other credit provider.

Compliance with relevant legislation
Advertisers must comply with the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission Act 1986 (Cth) and all anti-discrimination and equal opportunity legislation applicable in the State or Territory in which they conduct business. Advertisers agree to deal with any information accessed from the website in a manner which abides by all applicable laws of Australia, including privacy (Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the National Privacy Principles) and copyright laws. Advertisers agree to abide by the Trade Practices Act 1974 (Cth) and Fair Trading Acts in all applicable States and Territories.

No guarantees about job seeker representations
Advertisers agree that the Capital Jobs website offers a channel through which individuals can search and apply for job opportunities, and understand that the quality of applicants is not tested by Capital Jobs. Capital Jobs does not vet individual applicants and cannot be held liable for any loss sustained as a result of an Advertiser employing a job seeker via the website.
Responsibility for advertisements and other content
Capital Jobs accepts no responsibility or liability for errors in job advertisements or other content on the website. Advertisers are required to check their advertisements for errors prior to and after posting on the website. Advertisers acknowledge that Capital Jobs does not routinely vet advertisements posted to the website. The advertiser remains responsible for all advertisements that are displayed on the website at any given time.

Restrictions on content
1. Advertisers may not advertise get-rich programs, pyramid schemes or require a job seeker - either expressly in the advertisement or subsequently - to pay any fee or charge to apply for any job on the website.
2. Advertisers may not advertise more than one vacancy per job advertisement.
3. Advertisers may only advertise jobs in relevant job categories on the website.
4. Advertisements are to be written in English.
5. Advertisements are to be free of spelling and grammatical errors and must not contain slang words or unsavoury language.
6. Advertisements for adult services are not permitted.

Removal of advertisements
Capital Jobs reserves the right to reject, remove or reclassify any advertisement on the website, without notice, for any reason that it deems appropriate.

Unsolicited email
Advertisers may not use the website to send unsolicited commercial email to job seekers. Email addresses may only be used to communicate with job seekers about the specific vacancy to which they have applied. The CV database may only be used to communicate with job seekers about specific vacancies that match their job preferences.

Security
Advertisers must keep their account password details confidential. Capital Jobs will not be held responsible for any unauthorised access to the Advertiser’s online account. Capital Jobs recommends that advertisers use the multiple user accounts facility, rather than operating from a single master account.
