1. Scope

These Terms & Conditions constitute a legally binding agreement between you and UmEmployed Inc. ("we," "us," or "our") governing your access to and use of the UmEmployed platform, including all associated websites, applications, services, and tools (collectively, the "Service").

The Service is designed to connect job seekers with employers and facilitate the recruitment process. These terms apply to all users of the Service, including job seekers, recruiters, employers, and any other individuals or entities accessing or using our platform.

By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions. If you do not agree to these terms, you must immediately cease all use of the Service.

2. Accounts

To access certain features of the Service, you must create an account. When registering, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information as prompted by the registration process. You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy and completeness of your account information.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials, including your password, and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that provide false, inaccurate, or incomplete information, or that violate these Terms & Conditions. You may not use anyone else's account at any time without the express permission of the account holder.

3. Payments & billing

Certain aspects of the Service may require payment. Paid plans are billed according to the pricing displayed on our Pricing page. All fees are stated in the applicable currency and are exclusive of any taxes, which you are responsible for paying where required by law.

You authorize UmEmployed to charge all applicable fees to the payment method you provide. We may seek pre-authorization of your payment method prior to your purchase to verify its validity and available funds.

Fees are generally non-refundable except as expressly provided in these terms or as required by applicable law. If you believe you have been charged in error, you must contact us within 30 days of the charge date to request a review and potential refund.

We reserve the right to modify our pricing with 30 days' notice. Continued use of paid services after price changes constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.

4. Suspension & termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason including but not limited to: violation of these Terms & Conditions, unlawful use of the Service, non-payment of fees, or any activity that may harm our platform or other users.

You may terminate your account at any time by following the account closure process in your account settings or by contacting our support team. Upon termination, your right to use the Service will immediately cease.

All provisions of these Terms & Conditions which by their nature should survive termination shall survive, including without limitation ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, and limitations of liability.

5. Governing law

These Terms & Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any legal action or proceeding arising under these Terms & Conditions shall be brought exclusively in the federal or state courts located in Wilmington, Delaware.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, UmEmployed shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including without limitation, loss of profits, data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from your access to or use of or inability to access or use the Service.

In no event shall UmEmployed's total liability to you for all damages, losses, and causes of action exceed the amount you have paid to UmEmployed in the last six months, or, if greater, one hundred dollars ($100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you.
