1. About these Terms

These Terms of Use and Service (“Terms”) govern access to and use of Archi-Jobs.com, including its websites, job boards, employer services, candidate profiles, job alerts, advertising services, communications, and related features collectively referred to as the “Platform.”

By visiting the Platform, creating an account, submitting or applying for a job, purchasing a service, uploading content, or otherwise using the Platform, you confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted these Terms.

If you use the Platform on behalf of a company, architecture firm, agency, public authority, or other organization, you confirm that you are authorized to bind that organization to these Terms.

These Terms apply exclusively to the relationship between you and Archi-Jobs, to the exclusion of any terms submitted by a user, employer, purchasing department, or other third party, unless expressly accepted by us in writing.

2. Platform operator

Archi-Jobs.com is operated by:

Conceptfabriek CV
A company incorporated under Belgian law
Belgian enterprise number: BE 0635.884.686
Email: communication@archi-jobs.com

References to “Archi-Jobs,” “we,” “us,” or “our” mean Conceptfabriek CV and, where applicable, the Archi-Jobs network.

Archi-Jobs.com is primarily intended for architecture, design, engineering, planning, construction, and built-environment employment opportunities in the United States.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into a binding agreement to use the Platform.

By using the Platform, you confirm that:

  • the information you provide is accurate and up to date
  • you are not prohibited from using the Platform under applicable law
  • you will use the Platform only for lawful professional or recruitment-related purposes
  • you will comply with these Terms and all applicable laws.

We may request reasonable information to verify an account, employer, vacancy, payment, or identity.

4. Role of Archi-Jobs

Archi-Jobs operates an online job advertising and information platform.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in a separate written agreement, Archi-Jobs:

  • is not the employer of any candidate
  • does not enter into employment contracts on behalf of users
  • does not make hiring or dismissal decisions
  • does not guarantee employment, applications, interviews, candidates, or appointments
  • does not conduct background checks, immigration checks, professional licence checks, or reference checks
  • does not verify every statement made by an employer or candidate
  • is not a party to communications, interviews, negotiations, employment offers, or employment agreements between users.

We may format, categorize, translate, distribute, promote, review, or moderate vacancies and other content. This does not mean that we endorse, verify, approve, or accept responsibility for that content.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude any legal status, responsibility, or obligation that cannot lawfully be excluded.

5. User accounts

Users must provide accurate, complete, and current information when creating or using an account.

You are responsible for:

  • keeping your login credentials confidential
  • all activity conducted through your account
  • immediately notifying us of suspected unauthorized access
  • ensuring that only authorized persons use an employer account.

You may not create multiple accounts to circumvent restrictions, payment requirements, posting limits, suspensions, or other Platform rules.

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate an account where we reasonably suspect fraud, abuse, unauthorized access, a breach of these Terms, or conduct that could harm users or the Platform.

6. Services for job seekers

Job seekers may search vacancies, create job alerts, submit applications, and, where available, create or upload a candidate profile or résumé.

Job seekers remain solely responsible for:

  • the accuracy of their résumé, portfolio, profile, qualifications, and application information
  • deciding which employers to contact
  • verifying the identity and legitimacy of an employer
  • evaluating employment terms and working conditions
  • verifying professional licensing and work authorization requirements
  • deciding whether to accept an interview, assignment, or employment offer.

Archi-Jobs does not guarantee that an employer will view or respond to an application.

Job seekers must not upload highly sensitive information that is unnecessary for recruitment, including Social Security numbers, passport copies, banking information, complete identity documents, medical information, or account passwords.

7. Employer services and job postings

Employers may purchase or use vacancy publication, employer branding, promotional, social media, mailing, database, or other recruitment-related services.

The employer submitting a vacancy is solely responsible for:

  • the accuracy and completeness of the vacancy
  • having genuine authority to recruit for the position
  • the legality of the position and its working conditions
  • salary, benefits, location, remote-work, and employment-status information
  • compliance with federal, state, and local employment laws
  • compliance with applicable pay-transparency and salary-history laws
  • compliance with immigration and work-authorization rules
  • compliance with professional licensing and protected-title requirements
  • all communications and decisions involving candidates.

Vacancies must relate to genuine and currently available professional opportunities. Misleading, fictitious, expired, duplicated, or bait-and-switch vacancies are prohibited.

No minimum number of views, clicks, applications, interviews, or appointments is guaranteed unless expressly stated in a separate written agreement.

8. Equal employment opportunity and nondiscrimination

Employers must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local equal-employment and civil-rights laws.

Vacancies and recruitment practices may not unlawfully discriminate or express an unlawful preference based on characteristics including:

  • race or color
  • religion or creed
  • sex, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression
  • national origin or ancestry
  • age
  • disability
  • genetic information
  • marital or family status
  • military or veteran status
  • citizenship or immigration status
  • any other characteristic protected under applicable law.

A vacancy may not state or imply that only U.S. citizens, permanent residents, holders of a particular visa, or persons of a particular nationality will be considered unless that restriction is specifically required or permitted by applicable law, regulation, executive order, or government contract.

Employers must provide reasonable accommodation in the recruitment and application process where required by law.

We may reject, edit, suspend, or remove a vacancy that appears discriminatory or otherwise unlawful. We may request supporting information and may report suspected illegal conduct to the appropriate authorities.

The employer remains fully responsible for the vacancy, even where Archi-Jobs has reviewed, edited, categorized, or published it.

9. Architecture licences and professional titles

Architecture and related professions are regulated at state and local level in the United States.

Archi-Jobs does not verify whether:

  • a candidate holds a valid architectural or other professional licence
  • a licence is valid in the state where the position is located
  • a person may lawfully use the title “architect” or another protected title
  • an internship or professional experience qualifies toward licensing requirements
  • an employer is authorized to supervise licensure experience
  • foreign qualifications are recognized in the United States.

Employers and candidates must independently verify all applicable licensing, registration, education, experience, and professional-title requirements.

Publication of a vacancy does not constitute confirmation that the vacancy, employer, candidate, internship, or professional title satisfies these requirements.

10. Review and moderation

We may review vacancies and other submitted content before or after publication.

We reserve the right, without liability, to reject, edit, reclassify, suspend, or remove content that:

  • breaches these Terms
  • appears unlawful, discriminatory, misleading, fraudulent, or inappropriate
  • falls outside the scope of the Platform
  • creates a security or reputational risk
  • contains unauthorized personal data
  • infringes intellectual-property rights
  • promotes competing job platforms without our written permission
  • does not meet our quality or editorial standards.

Review or publication by Archi-Jobs does not constitute legal approval or confirmation of accuracy.

Except where required by law or expressly agreed otherwise, we are not obliged to provide detailed reasons for moderation decisions.

11. User content and intellectual property

“User Content” includes vacancies, company descriptions, logos, photographs, videos, portfolios, résumés, profile information, and other material submitted to the Platform.

You retain ownership of your User Content.

By submitting User Content, you grant Archi-Jobs a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable licence to host, store, reproduce, format, adapt, translate, display, distribute, and promote that content for the operation and promotion of:

  • the Platform
  • the Archi-Jobs network
  • job-search engines
  • newsletters and job alerts
  • social media
  • online advertising
  • approved recruitment and distribution partners.

This licence continues for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, complete an advertising campaign, maintain legal or accounting records, resolve disputes, and protect the integrity of the Platform.

You confirm that:

  • you own the User Content or have permission to use it
  • its use does not infringe copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, confidentiality, or other rights
  • all persons shown in photographs or videos have provided any required permission
  • the content does not contain confidential information that you are not permitted to disclose.

You remain responsible for all claims arising from your User Content.

12. Candidate profiles and résumé database

Where candidate-profile or résumé-database services are available, candidates may select the visibility settings offered by the Platform.

Depending on the selected settings, profile information may be visible to registered employers or employers with an appropriate paid package.

Employers may use candidate information only for genuine recruitment relating to relevant professional opportunities.

Employers may not:

  • use candidate information for unrelated marketing
  • sell, transfer, publish, or redistribute candidate information
  • build a separate candidate database
  • use automated tools to extract candidate information
  • contact candidates for deceptive or unrelated purposes
  • use candidate information to train artificial-intelligence systems
  • retain information longer than reasonably necessary for recruitment
  • discriminate unlawfully against candidates.

Candidates can edit, deactivate, or delete their profiles through the available account functions. Certain information may be retained where required for security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, accounting, backup, or dispute-resolution purposes, as explained in our Privacy Policy.

Although we may use technical measures intended to limit search-engine indexing, we cannot guarantee that information previously made public or accessible will never be indexed, cached, copied, or retained by third parties.

13. Prohibited conduct

Users may not:

  • use the Platform unlawfully or fraudulently
  • impersonate another person or organization
  • submit false or misleading information
  • publish discriminatory, hateful, threatening, obscene, or abusive content
  • distribute malware or malicious code
  • interfere with the Platform’s operation or security
  • attempt unauthorized access to accounts, servers, or data
  • reverse engineer or circumvent Platform restrictions
  • harvest email addresses, résumés, personal data, or vacancy information
  • send unsolicited messages to users
  • resell or redistribute Platform access
  • use the Platform to promote competing job boards without permission
  • use Platform content to train or improve an artificial-intelligence or machine-learning model without written permission
  • assist another person in carrying out prohibited conduct.

We may take technical, contractual, or legal action in response to prohibited conduct.

14. Automated access, crawling, and republication

Automated access to the Platform is prohibited unless expressly authorized by us in writing or clearly permitted through an official API, feed, or our robots.txt instructions.

Without written authorization, users and third parties may not:

  • crawl, scrape, spider, index, harvest, or systematically download Platform content
  • copy or republish vacancies on another website or job platform
  • collect candidate or employer data
  • bypass access controls, rate limits, or technical restrictions
  • use Platform content for aggregation, lead generation, resale, or artificial-intelligence training.

General-purpose search engines may index public vacancy pages only to the extent permitted by our technical instructions.

Unauthorized copying or republication may cause substantial commercial and reputational damage. We may seek immediate removal, injunctive relief, actual damages, statutory damages where available, recovery of profits, reasonable investigation and enforcement costs, and any other remedy permitted by law.

Our server records, access logs, timestamps, screenshots, technical reports, correspondence, and electronic records may be used as evidence to the extent permitted by applicable law.

15. Copyright complaints and repeat infringements

We respect intellectual-property rights and may remove content that is alleged to infringe copyright.

A copyright complaint should include:

  • identification of the protected work
  • identification and location of the allegedly infringing material
  • the complainant’s contact details
  • a statement of good-faith belief that the use is unauthorized
  • a statement that the information provided is accurate
  • confirmation that the complainant is authorized to act
  • a physical or electronic signature.

Copyright notices should be sent to: communication@archi-jobs.com

We may terminate accounts belonging to users who repeatedly infringe intellectual-property rights.

Submitting a knowingly false or misleading copyright notice may result in liability.

16. Fees, payments, and taxes

Prices, packages, publication periods, promotional services, and package contents are displayed on the Platform or in an individual quotation.

Unless expressly stated otherwise:

  • prices exclude applicable taxes
  • payment is due when the order is placed
  • services begin once payment is confirmed or we accept the order
  • purchased services are personal to the purchasing employer and may not be transferred
  • vacancy credits have the validity period shown at purchase
  • fees are non-refundable once publication, review, formatting, promotion, or campaign work has begun
  • advertising results are not guaranteed
  • unused credits or services are not redeemable for cash.

We may change future prices, packages, or services at any time. Changes do not retroactively alter an accepted order unless agreed with the customer.

Employers are responsible for applicable sales, use, withholding, VAT, or similar taxes, except taxes imposed directly on our income.

Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers and may also be subject to their terms.

Improper chargebacks, payment reversals, or payment disputes may result in suspension of services and recovery of reasonable collection and administrative costs.

Nothing in this section limits refund or cancellation rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

17. Marketing and electronic communications

We may send service-related communications necessary to operate an account, process an order, provide a job alert, respond to a request, or communicate material changes.

Marketing communications will be sent in accordance with applicable law and our Privacy Policy. Where required, we will request separate consent.

Recipients may unsubscribe from marketing communications using the unsubscribe method provided in the communication. Unsubscribing from marketing does not prevent necessary transactional or account-related communications.

Users are responsible for keeping their contact information current.

18. Privacy and data protection

Our collection, use, retention, transfer, and protection of personal information are described in our separate Privacy Policy.

The Privacy Policy may include additional information for residents of particular U.S. states where required by applicable privacy legislation.

Employers receiving candidate information act independently with respect to their own processing of that information and are responsible for their own privacy notices, security measures, retention periods, and legal obligations.

Acceptance of these Terms does not constitute consent to every form of personal-data processing or marketing. Consent will be requested separately where legally required.

19. Third-party services and links

The Platform may contain links to employers, application systems, social-media platforms, payment providers, analytics services, job-search engines, or other third-party services.

We do not control and are not responsible for:

  • the availability or security of third-party services
  • third-party content or privacy practices
  • applications submitted through external systems
  • transactions or communications conducted outside the Platform
  • damage arising from third-party websites or services.

Access to third-party services is at the user’s own risk and may be governed by separate terms.

20. Availability and modifications

We aim to provide a reliable Platform but do not guarantee continuous, uninterrupted, error-free, or secure access.

We may modify, update, suspend, discontinue, or restrict any feature or service for maintenance, security, legal, commercial, or technical reasons.

We are not liable for delays or failures caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including internet failures, hosting failures, cyberattacks, power failures, labor disputes, government action, natural disasters, epidemics, war, or failures of third-party suppliers.

21. Disclaimer of warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Platform and all services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.

Archi-Jobs makes no express or implied warranty regarding:

  • the accuracy or completeness of vacancies or profiles
  • the identity, legitimacy, conduct, or financial position of a user
  • candidate suitability or qualifications
  • professional licences or work authorization
  • the availability of a job
  • the outcome of an application or recruitment campaign
  • salary, benefits, working conditions, or employer conduct
  • uninterrupted or error-free operation
  • freedom from viruses or other harmful components.

Users must perform their own due diligence before sharing information, attending an interview, entering into an agreement, making a payment, relocating, or accepting employment.

Some jurisdictions do not permit certain warranty exclusions. In those jurisdictions, exclusions apply only to the extent legally permitted.

22. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Archi-Jobs and Conceptfabriek CV will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages, including loss of revenue, profit, business, opportunity, goodwill, data, applications, candidates, employment, or anticipated savings.

We will not be liable for damage resulting from:

  • User Content
  • inaccurate or unlawful vacancies
  • candidate or employer conduct
  • recruitment, interview, or employment decisions
  • third-party websites or services
  • unauthorized account access not caused by our failure to use reasonable care
  • temporary unavailability
  • removal, rejection, or moderation of content
  • events beyond our reasonable control.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising from or relating to the Platform or these Terms will not exceed:

  1. the total amount paid by the claimant to Archi-Jobs during the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim; or
  2. USD 100, where the claimant has not paid for services,

whichever is greater.

These limitations do not apply to liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for fraud, intentional misconduct, or any other liability that applicable mandatory law prohibits us from limiting.

23. Indemnification

To the fullest extent permitted by law, employers and business users agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Archi-Jobs, Conceptfabriek CV, and their directors, employees, contractors, and service providers from claims, losses, liabilities, fines, penalties, damages, and reasonable legal costs arising from:

  • their vacancies or User Content
  • their recruitment or employment practices
  • discrimination or unlawful job requirements
  • infringement of intellectual-property, privacy, or publicity rights
  • misuse of candidate information
  • breach of these Terms
  • violation of applicable law
  • disputes with candidates, employees, contractors, or third parties.

Individual job seekers agree to indemnify us only for claims arising from their intentional unlawful conduct, fraudulent information, infringement of third-party rights, or material breach of these Terms.

24. Disputes between users

Archi-Jobs is not responsible for resolving disputes between candidates, employers, recruiters, or other users.

Users release Archi-Jobs and Conceptfabriek CV, to the fullest extent permitted by law, from claims arising solely from the acts, omissions, communications, agreements, or disputes of other users.

We may cooperate with users or authorities where appropriate but are not obliged to mediate or participate in a dispute.

25. Suspension and termination

You may stop using the Platform at any time.

We may suspend or terminate an account or service where:

  • these Terms are breached
  • payment is overdue or reversed
  • information appears fraudulent or misleading
  • content creates legal, security, or reputational risk
  • use harms other users or the Platform
  • we are required to do so by law or a competent authority.

Termination does not affect rights and obligations that arose before termination.

Provisions concerning intellectual property, payments, liability, indemnification, evidence, disputes, and governing law survive termination.

26. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms to reflect changes to the Platform, our business, technology, or applicable legal requirements.

The current version will be published on the Platform with its effective date.

Material changes may also be communicated through the Platform or by email. Continued use after the effective date of updated Terms constitutes acceptance, except where applicable law requires renewed express consent.

Changes will not retroactively reduce rights relating to an already completed purchase where prohibited by law.

27. Electronic contracting and evidence

You agree that agreements, notices, invoices, acceptances, records, and communications may be created and delivered electronically.

Clicking an acceptance button, checking an acceptance box, creating an account, placing an order, or using a paid service may constitute an electronic acceptance or signature to the extent permitted by law.

Electronic records, server logs, order data, payment records, account activity, emails, backups, and technical records may be used as evidence to the extent permitted by applicable law.

28. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms and all contractual and non-contractual disputes arising from or relating to the Platform, its services, an order, or a user’s relationship with Archi-Jobs are governed exclusively by Belgian law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles and excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

Business users

Every employer, recruiter, agency, company, public authority, professional user, and other person acting for business or professional purposes irrevocably agrees that the courts having territorial jurisdiction over Ghent, Belgium, will have exclusive jurisdiction over every dispute arising from or relating to these Terms or the Platform.

Business users waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, objections based on personal jurisdiction, venue, inconvenient forum, or the fact that they are established or located outside Belgium.

Individual users

Individual job seekers and other users acting outside a trade or profession also agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts having jurisdiction over Ghent, Belgium, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

Nothing in these Terms deprives an individual user of mandatory consumer or statutory rights that cannot legally be waived.

Regulatory and protective measures

Nothing in this section restricts the powers or jurisdiction of a competent regulator, government agency, law-enforcement authority, or court where such jurisdiction cannot legally be excluded.

Archi-Jobs may seek interim, protective, injunctive, or intellectual-property relief in any competent jurisdiction where necessary to prevent or stop unauthorized access, infringement, scraping, data misuse, fraud, or other immediate harm.

To the extent permitted by law, disputes must be brought on an individual basis and not as part of a class, collective, consolidated, or representative action.

29. General provisions

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be interpreted or limited to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in effect.

Failure to enforce a provision does not constitute a waiver.

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, applicable package description, accepted quotation, and any expressly agreed written addendum, constitute the entire agreement between the parties concerning the Platform.

You may not assign your rights or obligations without our written permission. We may assign or transfer our rights and obligations as part of a restructuring, merger, sale, transfer of business, or transfer within the Archi-Jobs group or network.

Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture, employment relationship, franchise, fiduciary relationship, or agency between Archi-Jobs and a user.

The English-language version of these Terms controls. Translations are provided for convenience only.

30. Contact and complaints

Questions, complaints, or legal notices concerning the Platform may be sent to:
