The jobs contained in Arghaa’s search results, or linked from those results, are created by people over whom Arghaa exercises no control. You acknowledge and understand that although Arghaa reserves the right to reject any particular job for failure to meet our quality standards, we cannot guarantee we will remove any particular job. Arghaa does not control the content of the job listings or other information posted herein, as that is the sole responsibility of the person posting the job solicitation. Arghaa’s job search results are indexed in an automated manner. Arghaa does not have any obligation to show jobs in any particular order. Arghaa also does not promise to include any job in its search results and may exclude any job link for any reason or for no reason. We cannot confirm that users or employers are who they claim to be. Arghaa assumes no responsibility, and disclaims all liability, for the content, accuracy, completeness, legality, reliability, or availability of any job listing, information, or web site that is either included in Arghaa’s search results or linked to by the Website.

The Website contains links to other sites on the Internet which are owned and operated by third party vendors and other third parties (the “External Sites”). You acknowledge that Arghaa is not responsible for the availability of, or the materials located on or through any External Sites. You should contact the site administrator or webmaster for those External Sites if you have any concerns regarding such links or the materials located on such External Sites.

Some parts of the Website, such as message boards, job listings, and forums, may allow users to post text, job solicitations, resumes, information, images, audio, video, messages, and other materials, (any such materials a user submits, posts, displays, or otherwise makes available on the Website is referred to as “User Content”). Such functionality is designed to help readers obtain career and company information, facilitate communication, discuss ways to make career decisions, and to let users know of job opportunities. This User Content is provided by outside contributors, many of whom use anonymous screen names. They may occasionally post User Content, including messages or statements that are misleading, deceptive, or downright wrong. Arghaa does not endorse and is not responsible for any opinion, advice, information, or statement contained in the User Content made or displayed on the Website by third parties. You acknowledge that by accessing the Website, you may come into contact with content that you find harmful, offensive, threatening, indecent or objectionable and you acknowledge that Arghaa shall have no liability to you for the content including, but not limited to explicit language and other potentially offensive material.

Users of the Website must not post User Content or information that is unlawful, fraudulent, discriminatory, threatening, abusive, libelous, defamatory, obscene or otherwise objectionable or that contains sexual, ethnic or racial or other discriminating slurs, or material which contains no relevant or constructive content, which goes beyond profanity into obscenity or abhorrence, or which is otherwise in violation of the law. Users are also prohibited from posting any User Content that contains proprietary information, trade secrets or confidential information. User Content may not contain any advertisements, solicitations, chain letters, pyramid schemes, investment opportunities, or other unsolicited commercial communication (except as otherwise expressly permitted by us), or encourage or cause spamming or flooding.

When you create a Career Site or post a job solicitation on Arghaa, whether part of the Arghaa Ads program or as a free posting, you agree that all of Arghaa’s terms, including the Arghaa Privacy and Cookie policies apply to you and to the applicants applying through such Sites or solicitations. You also agree that Arghaa shall utilize its Arghaa Apply email relay function for such job solicitations and that applicants to those jobs and utilizing such Career site shall apply through Arghaa Apply. When you post a job solicitation on Arghaa and you send, store or receive materials through or using the website, Arghaa may also inform a user that you have taken an action with regards to a user’s application such as opening the application, viewing the application and making a decision with regards to the application, and you hereby consent to Arghaa taking such actions. If you post a job solicitation on Arghaa with questions to applicants, you agree to be responsible for the content of such questions. You agree that Arghaa may reject or remove any job listing or any part of any Career Site or any screening question for any or no reason. You shall indemnify and defend Arghaa, its agents, affiliates, and licensors from any third party claim or liability (including without limitation reasonable legal fees) arising out of your posting a job on Arghaa, using screening questions, or creating a Career Site.

You are prohibited from posting any User Content containing official identification information (whether your own or of another person) on the Website, such as social security number, passport number, national identification number, insurance number, driver’s license number, immigration number, or any other similar number, code, or identifier. Posting such identification information may lead to identity theft and other adverse consequences. Arghaa may remove such numbers but does not undertake any obligation to do so and undertakes no responsibility and disclaims all liability for posting of such numbers.

Although Arghaa has no obligation to do so, Arghaa may monitor messages posted on the Website and reserves the right to delete any User Content or portion thereof which violate the above rules, messages, topics that are unrelated to the specific portion of the Website on which they are posted, advertisements, recruiting or other commercial messages, and any other User Content that Arghaa deems in its sole discretion is inappropriate. If you believe a message violates our policies, please contact Arghaa immediately so that we can consider its editing or removal. Arghaa does not promise to remove any User Content and interpretation of whether User Content violates any Arghaa policy always remains within the sole discretion of Arghaa.

Arghaa reserves the right to disclose all User Content and other relevant information and the circumstances surrounding their transmission to any third party in order to operate the Website properly; to protect itself, its partners and its visitors; and to comply with legal obligations or governmental requests. This means Arghaa may honor court-mandated requests to reveal a user’s electronic address and identity.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Arghaa reserves the right (but are under no obligation) to remove any job listings that directly or indirectly discriminate against applicants. Direct discrimination means that a job listing specifically makes it clear that they only want applicants that match a certain criteria, thereby excluding others because of their gender, race, age or disability. Indirect discrimination means that a job listing implicitly excludes certain classes of applicants by making it impossible for them to qualify for the job requirements. You understand and agree that it is your responsibility to refrain from posting any job listings that contain direct or indirect discrimination.

When you, an employer or job candidate, send materials through Arghaa Apply and Arghaa Resume, Arghaa may use those materials for data analysis, quality control, and to provide better search quality and candidate quality results for job seekers and employers. Arghaa may also note if the words of a job seeker’s resume match the words of certain job descriptions, in order to improve service to job seekers and employers.
