The Client acknowledges that Jobgether has invested considerable time and resources in providing the Platform and its functionality. The Client also acknowledges that Jobgether has facilitated the matching of Talents.

Therefore, the Client is strictly prohibited from using the information provided by Jobgether for any purpose other than Talent Recruitment when using the Platform.

This non-bypassing requirement will be valid during the entire subscription period of the Services as well as for one (1) year from the deletion of the Client's personal account on the Platform (the " Account ").

  1. Warranties and Limitation of Liability

Jobgether is obliged to provide quality Services to the Client. However, Jobgether does not guarantee the suitability of the Services for the Client's specific needs.

The Client acknowledges that the Services offer an additional, non-alternative solution to Recruitment and that the Services are not a substitute for any other means the Client may have to achieve the same objective.

Client warrants that it is authorized to share the personal data it provides to Jobgether in connection with the Services.

Jobgether acts solely as an intermediary to facilitate contact between the Client and the Talent. The eventual recruitment of a Talent by the Client via the Platform creates a contract exclusively between the Client and the Talent in question, to which Jobgether is not or does not become a party.

Jobgether shall not be liable for any indirect, uncertain, consequential, immaterial or unproven damages, or incidental damages, including, without limitation, commercial loss, loss of business, loss of profit or loss of reputation arising out of or in connection with the use of the Platform or any provision of these Terms of Service.

Under no circumstances will Jobgether's total maximum liability under the Contract be limited to the amounts paid by the Client in the twelve (12) months prior to the occurrence of the last damaging event, unless otherwise provided by mandatory legal provisions.

Nothing in these Terms of Service, however, shall exclude or limit in any way the liability of either Party for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by its negligence, or any other liability to the extent that it cannot be excluded or limited by agreement.

  1. Indemnification

The Client agrees, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Jobgether from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, liabilities or damages relating to or arising from the breach of any of the provisions of these Terms of Service and, more generally, the breach of any laws and regulations that may apply as a result of the application of these Terms of Service.

  1. Force majeure

Neither Party shall be held liable or be deemed to have failed to perform its obligations under the Agreement in the event that a delay or failure to perform its rights and obligations under the Agreement is attributable to circumstances beyond the control of the Parties and disrupting the normal course of business, including, but not limited to, an order issued by the authorities, a mobilization, war, epidemic or pandemic, lock-out, strike, demonstration, technical defects in the transmission of communications, failure of the host, flood, explosion, change in the global economic circumstances, act of vandalism, or exceptional weather circumstances, without the Party invoking such circumstances having to demonstrate their unforeseeable nature (hereinafter, " Force Majeure" ).

The Party claiming Force Majeure shall promptly inform the other Party in writing and shall take all reasonable measures to overcome the temporary situation resulting from the Force Majeure.

In this case, either Party may suspend the performance of its rights and obligations under the Contract for the time necessary to overcome this temporary situation, or terminate the Contract if the Force Majeure situation persists for more than sixty (60) days, without any compensation being due.

  1. Transfer

Jobgether reserves the right to assign, delegate or transfer the Contract and the rights and obligations under these Terms of Service to any individual, entity or company.

  1. Miscellaneous Provisions

The Contract, together with any supplementary legal documents, including the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between Jobgether and the Customer with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements between the Parties with respect to the Services.

These Terms of Service may be supplemented by specific additional terms. In this case, these conditions shall form an integral part of these Terms of Service.

Jobgethers failure to enforce or take any action against the Client for breach of any provision of these Terms of Service shall not be deemed a waiver of its right to enforce or take any action for any subsequent breach of such provision by the Client.

The invalidity of any provision contained in the various sections of these Terms of Service shall not affect the binding nature of the remaining provisions of our Terms of Service. The Parties agree that any provision deemed invalid and/or unenforceable by a competent judicial or administrative authority shall be replaced by a conforming provision that comes as close as possible to the provision deemed invalid and/or unenforceable and that has equivalent economic effect.

  1. Applicable law and jurisdiction

These Terms of Service shall be exclusively governed by and construed in accordance with Belgian law.

Any dispute relating to these Terms of Service, including but not limited to their validity, interpretation or performance, and more generally, any dispute between the Parties, shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Brussels, unless mandatory legal provisions or public policy provide otherwise.
