Terms of Use
Dated: 11/01/2021
This document (the “Terms of Use”) together with the Privacy Policy (the “Terms”) set out the terms under which you may make use of the Platform services (the “Services”)
The users using the Platform (the “Users”) (“You”), (“Recruiter”), (“Employer”) expressly acknowledge having read the Terms and agree without reservation before subscribing on www.clincher.com. You agree that by clicking “Step inside”, “Count me in”, “Sign Up” “See More” or similar, registering, accessing or using our Services, you are agreeing to enter into a legally binding contract with Clinsher (even if you are using our Services on behalf of a company). If you do not agree to these Terms do not access or otherwise use any of our Services. If you wish to terminate these Terms, at any time you can do so by closing your account and no longer accessing or using our Services.
In the event of any conflict between these Terms and your standards terms of business, while using the Services, these Terms of Use shall prevail over any inconsistent and /or conflict of terms or conditions contained, or referred to, in your standard terms of business or any other document supplied by you or implied by law or any other source.
When you register on the Platform you become a user. If you have chosen not to register for our Services, you may access certain features as a visitor (“Visitor”).
By accepting these Terms, you warrant that you have the full capacity, with full right, power and authority to enter into and perform an agreement with Us to use our Services, and are duly authorised to bind the party for whom you act.
Clinsher offers the clincher.com platform (the “Platform”) for your business purposes only. To register for an Account or use the Platform, you must, and hereby represent that you: (a) are an employee or agent of and authorized to act for and bind an independent business (whether it be as a self-employed individual/sole proprietor or as a corporation, limited liability company, or other entity); (b) will use the Platform for business purposes only; (c) will comply with any licensing, registration, or other requirements with respect to your business, or the business for which you are acting; and (d) are either a legal entity or an individual who is 18 years or older (or have otherwise reached the age of majority in the jurisdiction in which you conduct business) in each case who can form legally binding contracts.

The terms “Clinsher”, “We”, “Us” or “Our” refer to the owner of the Platform.
The Terms “You”, “Recruiter” as applicable and/or “Employer” as applicable refers to the Visitor or to the User.
For the avoidance of doubt, Clinsher is providing a Platform to connect Users between them for the purpose of these Terms. Clinsher does not actively introduce Recruiters to Employers. Employers are responsible for selecting the Recruiters they would like to collaborate with. When an Employer and a Recruiter are willing to work together, they are entering into a service contract which is by default the Standard Service Agreement. In case the Users have chosen not to use the Standard Service Agreement but, in the meantime, no other agreements have been agreed on at the time of the collaboration, the Standard Service Agreement applies by default. The Users are free to agree to the Standard Service Agreement or to different or additional terms for their service contract(s). However, users may not, by agreement amongst themselves, alter the rights or responsibilities of the Platform.
For the sake of clarity, Clinsher is not a party to the Standard Service Agreement or any agreement contracted between the Users.

The Employer agrees to receive a weekly candidate Newsletter presented by Recruiters following the posting of a vacancy on the site. The Employer understands and acknowledges that the candidate Newsletter is not sent as part of a marketing approach but as part of the service expected following the posting of the vacancy. This means that if the Employer no longer wishes to receive candidate Newsletters, it must close its vacancy on the Website. The Employer acknowledges and accepts that it cannot unsubscribe from the candidate Newsletter without closing its online vacancy.
The Employer acknowledges and accepts that it is solely responsible for the information published on the platform and publicly accessible and in fact, cannot be held Clinsher responsible in the event that its identity is identifiable through clues or any information placed in the published offer.

Recruiters agree to only refer to Employers on the platform candidates that are available and motivated to find a new job and who are not fictive.
Recruiters acknowledge and accept that Clinsher cannot be held responsible for any damage resulting from the fact that they introduce a candidate already working for the targeted Employer via the Platform. In the event that Clinsher can identify that a candidate introduced by a Recruiter is already an employee of the targeted Employer, Clinsher will not send the candidat to the Employer and reserves the right to re-credit a CV to the Recruiter at its sole discretion.

If a Recruiter and an Employer enter into a service agreement for the purpose of recruitment services, the terms of such agreement will apply between them. For the sake of clarity Clinsher is not a party to any service agreement agreed between the Users.
With respect to any service agreement agreed between the Users from time to time for the purpose of recruitment services, Users agree that any such agreements do not conflict with, narrow, or expand Clinsher’s rights and obligations under these Terms, including this Terms of Use.
Clinsher will make reasonable efforts if possible to resolve any disputes arising between Recruiters and Employers. However, Clinsher will not and is not obligated to provide any dispute. In the event of such a dispute We will investigate and based upon the available evidence as an independent party make a determination on the source of the Candidate Introduction that led to the Engagement, and therefore whether a Placement Fee shall be charged.
