1.1 Jobworx CareerOS SL, based in Barcelona (hereinafter also “we” or "CareerOS"), provides students, working students, trainees, interns, young professionals, temporary workers and other job seekers (hereinafter referred to as “candidates”) via the websites www.thecareeros.com, app.thecareeros.com, employer.thecareeros.com and others (hereinafter referred to as “platform”) to companies and other organizations (hereinafter referred to as “employers”). We work with the career centers and career advisors of universities (hereinafter referred to as “career advisors” or collectively together with candidates and employers hereinafter referred to as “users”) to provide this service to the candidates. Candidates have the opportunity to easily find suitable job offers and employers and receive support in the application process including finding networking partners and messaging, as well as, if necessary, be found and contacted by employers with suitable job offers. We cannot guarantee candidates a suitable job, an interview, successful job placement or the suggestion of suitable job offers. Career advisors get insights into the activities of the candidates cohorts they are associated with in order to better support them them in their career journey. Employers use CareerOS for their recruiting and thus gain access to suitable candidates.
1.2 These terms of use apply to users who use the services of the CareerOS platform.
2.1 The following terms of use regulate the conditions for using our platform for candidates. These terms of use apply exclusively to the use of the platform in the version current at the time the contract is concluded.
2.2 It is not possible to use the platform without accepting these terms of use.
2.3 These Terms of Use are made available to the user on the platform so that they can read, download and save locally.
3.1 If candidates are looking for an internship, a working student position, a career start or another form of job, employment or training, candidates have the opportunity to register on our platform free of charge, as long as they have been granted access by their university. The account created in this way contains a so-called candidate profile, which can be enriched with one or more job search profiles and, among other things, records the time and location preferences of the respective candidate.
3.2 Candidates can use the platform to find suitable companies or jobs, manage and execute their networking activities, engage in messaging via the internal CareerOS chat, LinkedIn or Email integration, organize their job applications and generate resumes among other features.
3.3 Career advisors can use the platform to get insights into the job applications, documents, networking activities among other things of their associated candidates on an individual and aggregated level.
3.4 Employers can use the platform to post jobs, advertise their employer brand, invite to events, search the candidate database and chat with candidates among other features.
3.5 If, from CareerOS perspective, the specified search and the specified qualifications, either algorithmically or determined by one of our employees, sufficiently match active job offers or searching employers, these offers may be suggested to the respective candidate. The candidate can decide for himself at any time in the settings of his account whether he would like to receive so-called job suggestions or not.
3.6 If the candidate is interested in a job offer, he or she has the opportunity, among other things, to apply for this job offer.
3.7 In addition, the candidate may have the opportunity to submit an unsolicited application to an employer, i.e. not for a specific job offer.
3.8 CareerOS gives the employer access to suitable applications and candidate profiles.
3.9 If an employer has received access to an application, he can view the candidate profile and other related documents such as resumes and use it as part of his application process.
3.10 With the aim of bringing candidates and employers together even more quickly, the employer may also be able to view relevant data of suitable candidates and contact them with the job offer without them having already applied for the job. The candidate has the option to revoke this access option at any time.
3.11 CareerOS also offers employers the opportunity to make their advertised job offers and career pages available to candidates via CareerOS technology, with the aim of making the application process faster and easier for both sides. When applying for a job at the employer or on an initiative basis with the employer, as well as using other functions on the employer's website (e.g. following employers or being notified of new job offers), the respective candidates register with CareerOS and thus become users of our platform.
3.12 CareerOS does not guarantee any specific accessibility for the free use of the platform. We are not responsible for technical restrictions on the availability of our service (disruption) if we are not responsible for the disruption. If we are responsible for the disruption, we would like to point out that there is no right to our service being available at all times. Of course, we strive to ensure the availability of the platform as comprehensively as possible. However, impairments in availability, in particular due to necessary maintenance work or technical malfunctions, cannot generally be ruled out and are therefore acceptable to a reasonable extent.
3.13 We reserve the right to immediately block CareerOS accounts in the event of improper use. Misuse occurs in particular if the user culpably violates the provisions regulated in these terms of use. In addition, we can deactivate accounts, for example if the user is inactive for a long period of time. As a rule, we inform the user of the impending deactivation and its timing sufficiently in advance by email.
3.14 The user has no right to the content he has posted (text, images, etc.) being visible for a specific period of time or permanently.
3.15 The platform is not an archive system for the user's files and content. We can therefore assume no liability or guarantee for the accessibility, security and storage of the uploaded and posted content.
3.16 We reserve the right to remove or block certain content at any time and without notice, especially if third parties request us to do so, for example by notifying us of illegal content.
3.17 The various usage options can be adjusted, i.e. either expanded or discontinued, at any time without notice.

4.5 Registration takes place by providing your email address and, if necessary, a password. If necessary, the user can also register with us via existing profiles or accounts on other platforms (e.g. Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Apple or Linkedin).

With their consent, they forward the candidate to CareerOS with the aim of finding a job for the candidate. If necessary, in certain partnerships, the process-related application data regarding the status of the application is passed back to the partner.
5.6 CareerOS pseudonymizes the candidate's profile in order to make it available to employers who do not yet have a contractual relationship with CareerOS or who are in a pre-contractual relationship with CareerOS, with relevant job offers that match the candidate's search parameters. This is done with the aim of finding a suitable job for the candidate beyond the job offers on the platform.

This happens against the background that the candidate's profiles are generally interesting for an employer and the employer may want to return to them in the future or make the candidate a job offer.

6.12 If there is reasonable suspicion that a contract within the meaning of paragraph 6.11 of these terms of use has been concluded without us being informed, the candidate is obliged, upon our request, to provide us with information as to whether a contract has been concluded. in which position he was employed in the company and, if applicable, what gross annual target salary was agreed, provided we have a legitimate interest in this information. We have a legitimate interest in particular if and to the extent that the commission settlement with the employer depends on knowledge of this information. The obligation to provide information must generally be fulfilled by providing us with a copy of the employment contract (redacted except for the relevant information).
7.1 The user (candidate, career advisor or employer) has the option to delete the account at any time. If, at the time of the deletion request, CareerOS is entitled (e.g. for evidentiary purposes) or even obliged (e.g. for tax or commercial law reasons) to continue to process certain data, the right to deletion does not apply to this data.
7.2 The career advisor can terminate the partnership with CareerOS as stated in the individually agreed contract.
7.3 The employer can terminate the partnership with CareerOS or up- or downgrade the used subscription plan as stated in the individually agreed contract.

7.4 If these terms of use are violated, we reserve the right to delete or block the account. This applies in particular if the user commits legal violations via or with the help of the account, if the user has uploaded illegal content or if the user otherwise culpably violates these terms of use.
