4. Products. (a) Job Posting. If set forth in the Order, GeographyJobs will permit Customer to post jobs on GeographyJobs site and, if set forth in the Order, on the other Sites specifically identified in the Order in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each Site’s terms of use. Any hyperlinks contained in a job posting submitted by Customer may only link to a job listing on the Customer’s own web site for the purposes of directing applicants through the Customer’s application process. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Order, job postings purchased hereunder (i) have a scheduled run of 60 days.  The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply to all job postings posted hereunder for the duration of their scheduled run. Any (1) re-activation of a deleted or expired job posting, (2) refreshing or renewing of any job posting, constitutes use of an additional job posting.  Each job posting may only describe one type of position.  The Customer may advertise multiple openings for one described position.  Job postings shall not be used to advertise multiple kinds of positions that an organisation or recruitment firm tends to fill.  Job postings made in the form of the previous sentence may be corrected to reflect a proper job posting by advertising a single position.  If the offending ad is not corrected within 5 days from the date of the Order, GeographyJobs has the right to remove the offending ad without refund of the purchase price of the Order.  Job postings or unlimited posting packages may be shared by up to three user accounts in total at no added charge.  To request redistribution of job posting inventory or access to an unlimited posting package, the request must be made via email to GeographyJobs by the purchaser of the products using their GeographyJobs registered email address with the accounts to which they wish to distribute the postings.  Additional accounts may share job posting packages, but there will be an additional charge of $30 (USD) per account.  All additional accounts must be registered within the same organisation.  When a job is posted, the customer may have their corporate logo included for display on the applicable GeographyJobs homepage.  No guarantees are made with regard to the duration or the runtime of the logo, nor specific placement in the featured employer area.  Position and runtime length are made solely at the discretion of GeographyJobs.

(b)  Account Management Services. Geography Jobs has the right to limit the number of job ads it posts to ten (10) postings per month on behalf of the client (customer).  When retained to perform “passive” account management, Geography Jobs shall scan the client’s posted vacancies on the client’s own site and post vacancies to a GeographyJobs site.  Not all job vacancies are suitable for the GeographyJobs audience.  The suitability of the type of vacancy for GeographyJobs is the sole discretion of GeographyJobs.  GeographyJobs shall attempt in all good faith to post all suitable vacancies to the applicable GeographyJobs site within the above stated limits.  If GeographyJobs fails to post a suitable vacancy to one the GeographyJobs sites, they shall assume no penalty or liability.  The client (customer) may notify GeographyJobs of the omission so that the job may be posted.  GeographyJobs is not liable for any error or omission it makes when composing job ads on behalf of the client (customer).  The client is not entitled to any refund, repayment or reimbursement of fees as a result of said errors or omissions.  The client may contact GeographyJobs and notify them of the error so that it may be corrected.  

(c) Resume Access Package. If set forth in the Order, the GeographyJobs resume databases (each a “Resume Database”), are private databases for use by individual users under the direct control of Customer (“Resume Users”). One year of resume database access lasts 365 days.  For all other resume access packages, each month constitutes 31 days of access.  Each Site Resume Database access license (“Resume Database License”) represents a single Resume User license and each license allows a single Resume User to access a Resume Database through one unique password based on the terms of the resume access package identified in the Order (each a “Resume Access Package”).   If Customer (including any of Customer’s employees or agents) is found to share passwords to any Resume Database or private area of any Site with any non-licensed user, such sharing will be a breach of this Agreement and GeographyJobs shall have the remedies set forth in Section 2.  Customer agrees to notify GeographyJobs promptly after the departure of any person to whom a password was provided and GeographyJobs reserves the right to cancel such password and issue a replacement password. GeographyJobs reserves the right to periodically change issued passwords. The Resume Database License may not be used to send unsolicited mail or e-mail, make unsolicited phone calls or send unsolicited faxes regarding promotions and/or advertising of Customer’s or a third party’s products or services. The Resume Database License may also not be used to source candidates or to contact job seekers or resume holders, in regards to any home-based business opportunities, fee-based business opportunities or franchise opportunities.  Resume access packages may be shared by up to three user accounts in total at no added charge.  To request such shared access to any resume package, the user that purchased the package must contact GeographyJobs using their GeographyJobs registered email address with the accounts to which they wish to share access.  Additional accounts may share resume packages but there will be an additional charge of $30 (USD) per account. All additional accounts must be registered within the same organisation.
