Whereas

Partner owns and manages website(s) and/or email list(s) of users.

Adzuna owns and manages an online job search engine under the primary brand Adzuna, and provides an email delivery service to send job alert emails to users as well as advertising content inventory to its Partners ("Services").

Partner wishes to either publish Adzuna's advertising content inventory to its users, or provide Adzuna with access to its registered user data ("Users" or "User List") for the sole purpose of email marketing, or both, on the basis of, and subject to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

1. Services

BACKFILL (as applicable)

Adzuna will provide advertisements for job vacancies ("Content") to the Partner, to be displayed within Partner job email alerts and/or within jobs sections of Partner websites only in a format (and on websites) agreed between the Parties.

Content will be provided to the Partner by XML or API, as agreed. Partner agrees to collect a refreshed Content file from Adzuna on a daily basis, or more frequently if agreed, and the Partner agrees to refresh the Content it displays to its users within 4 hours of receiving the latest Content from Adzuna. The Partner shall not materially alter the Content and will store and present the Content on its websites in manners which prohibit, so far as technically practical, the so-called screen-scraping of the Content, and will ensure that all Content display complies with any applicable laws.

Adzuna agrees to pay Partner a fee for each unique, non-incentivised click by a valid user on an Adzuna sponsored job ("Valid Click" as defined below) that delivers the user to one of Adzuna's advertisers, or a Revenue Share of earnings from Valid Clicks, as specified in the Agreement Summary.

JOBS BY EMAIL (as applicable)

Partner will provide Adzuna with a feed or content file (in a format to be agreed between the parties) of the relevant, up to date, User List. Partner agrees to refresh and update the content file and User List on a daily basis, or a different schedule if agreed between the Parties.

Adzuna will send emails including targeted, sponsored job advertisements, as well as appropriate opt-outs, to some or all of the User List provided by the Partner, within an email template and branding to be agreed between the parties. Adzuna shall retain discretion to update the template from time to time to optimize and enhance the Services.

The Parties will work together to ensure User List opt-outs are shared and actioned promptly.

Adzuna agrees to pay Partner a fee for each unique, non-incentivised click by a valid user within an email on an Adzuna sponsored job ("Valid Click" as defined below) that delivers the user to one of Adzuna's advertisers, or a Revenue Share of earnings from Valid Clicks, as specified in the Agreement Summary.

CO-REGISTRATION (as applicable)

Partner will register the Users via an Adzuna API (in a format to be agreed between the parties) with relevant, up to date User information to include email address, location, and job title. If required by Adzuna, Partner will perform a pre check to ensure the record is new and unique to Adzuna.

  1.

  2. Partner shall not approach or solicit, directly or indirectly, any job board or other job advertiser who is the advertiser of the job promoted in Adzuna's Content to offer them cost-per-click advertising services for the duration of this Agreement, unless with Adzuna's prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld, or if a prior commercial relationship already exists.
  3. Adzuna shall not send any other communications to the Partner's registered users and registered users will not be shared with or passed on to any third parties for any reason, with the only exceptions being those third parties required to process, store and monitor the data and deliver the subsequent emails being sent.
  4. During the term of this Agreement and for 6 months post termination, you shall not, directly or indirectly, personally or through others, solicit or attempt to solicit the employment of any employee of Adzuna, or ask any employee or contractor to cease their contract with Adzuna. You accept liability for the direct and indirect consequences of any breach of this clause and will make good any losses caused to Adzuna as a result.

3. Reporting, Invoicing and Fees

  1. Within 5 days of the end of each calendar month, Adzuna shall prepare a report (the "Billing Report") and send it to the Partner. The Billing Report will contain details of the number of Accepted Users and/or the number of Valid Clicks generated from Partner's users in the previous calendar month from Backfill or Jobs By Email, as applicable, and the calculation of the Fees subsequently due to Partner.
  2. In respect of each calendar month, Adzuna shall pay to Partner the price per Accepted User, Valid Click to any advertisement for a job provided in its Content, or portion of Revenue Share, as specified in the Agreement Summary, minus the sum cost of sending the emails (in the case of the Jobs By Email service only). Partner hereby recognises that it agrees to cover said cost of email sending as advertised by Adzuna and any third party involved in the Jobs By Email process.
  3. Partner will send an invoice to Adzuna for the Fees within 14 days of receipt of the Billing Report.
  4. All amounts and sums set out in this Agreement, are expressed as exclusive of sales taxes which, if chargeable, shall be added to the invoice.

  3. If either Party believes their credentials to be compromised they shall promptly notify the other Party who shall, in turn, promptly disable the compromised credentials and issue new credentials.

5. Valid Click

Adzuna defines a Valid Click as a unique, non-incentivised click on an Adzuna sponsored job advert provided in its Content (be it contained on an email or displayed on a Partner website), excluding the following:

  1. Clicks determined by Google Analytics or another independent third-party solution to stem from internet bots ("invalid users") rather than genuine human users ("valid users").
  2. Clicks delivered to a job advert 24 hours or more after said advert has been established by Adzuna to have been removed by Adzuna's client from their feed (and thus designated as an expired listing) whether such activity occurred on the Partner's core site or any other website to which the Partner distributed the job advert
  3. Clicks from the same user, identified by IP and user agent, on the same advert within the same user session and within 1 hour of the first click.
  4. Clicks determined by Adzuna as international clicks, stemming from a user based in a country outside the applicable advert's reasonable geographic scope.
  5. Clicks which stem from any other IP address determined by Adzuna's reasonable judgment as not reasonably likely to result in productive traffic.

  4.

  5. Partner has established and implemented commercially reasonable practices and procedures designed to prevent sharing of data or information that does not comply with applicable laws, rules and regulations;

  6. it has the requisite corporate authority to enter into this Agreement and perform its obligations hereunder;
  7. it shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to GDPR and the Federal Trade Commission Act, in relation to the performance by it of its obligations under this Agreement;

Under no circumstances shall Adzuna be liable for any consequential, indirect or special losses howsoever arising or for any loss of profits, revenue, interest, goodwill, business and/or savings (whether direct or indirect). Nothing in these Terms shall be construed to exclude Adzuna's liability for death or personal injury by negligence or any other liability which cannot by law be excluded.

The aggregate liability of either party in respect of any matter connected with this contract, and under contract, tort (including negligence) or any other head of law, shall not exceed the amounts actually paid by Adzuna to Partner in the previous three months or $100,000, whichever is greater, except for the obligations set out in clause 4 where liability shall be capped at $1M.

  4. The provisions of the preceding clause shall not apply to any information which:

  6. At the request of a disclosing Party, the receiving Party shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days) return to the disclosing Party or destroy all Confidential Information of the disclosing Party and shall certify by a signature of a Director (as the term is understood in law) that it has complied with this sub-clause.

12. Miscellaneous

Notices

  1. If either Party needs to send notices to the other Party they shall do so by both email and by first-class (or international equivalent) pre-paid mail to the address given for that Party in the Summary or such other address as a Party may notify the other Party in accordance with this Clause.

  4. Save as provided above, neither Party may assign or encumber its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and any such purported assignment shall be void.

    5. Severability

  5. If any part of this Agreement becomes or is illegal or unenforceable that part of this Agreement shall be deemed excised and the Parties shall act in good faith to replace the relevant part of this Agreement with an alternative that is not illegal or unenforceable and that maintains the intended business relationship between the Parties.
