This Agreement is a legal agreement between the User and Inchima Limited (known as 'ebeebo' for the purposes of this agreement) for the Services you subscribe to. These Services include the website infrastructure, data storage mechanisms, databases and related designs, content, printed materials, and online or electronic documentation. By using the Services, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Customer Agreement. If you do not agree to the terms of this Customer Agreement, you are not authorised to use the ebeebo Services.

These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and replaces all prior or contemporaneous understandings or agreements, written or oral, regarding such subject matter. Any waiver of any provision of the Terms of Use will be effective only if in writing and signed by Inchima Limited.

ebeebo cannot accept reasonability for any injury sustained while following or as a result of any of the advice offered on this site.

The ebeebo service enables you to contact other members. ebeebo is not a job brokering service and is not obligated to successfully broker any other members for you.

Ebeebo is only a venue

The site acts as a venue which allows registered users to offer themselves for work, or find members which may have the skills and experience necessary for work roles or contracts they have. We do not facilitate in the placement of individuals in jobs beyond bringing both parties to our website. We do not ultimately participate in transactions between any users of the website.

In effect, the site acts as a match maker for those offering work contracts to those who are looking for work. Ebeebo is not an employment site.

Although we police the site for quality, we do not review the profiles provided by users and are not involved in any transactions between Finders and Seekers that have been introduced through the site. As a result, we have no control over the quality of profile or work permit status of the prospective workers, the truth or accuracy of the profiles or the ability of users to follow through with any promises made. Do not assume that any offer or promises made are valid and legal simply because it is discussed on the Site. We are not responsible for ensuring that Finders and Seekers actually complete a discussion or negotiation. You accept sole responsibility for the legality of your actions under laws applying to you.

We use many techniques to verify the accuracy of the information our users provide to us when they register on the Site. However, because user verification on the Internet is difficult, ebeebo cannot and does not confirm the purported identity of users or the validity of the information which users post to the Site. In addition there are risks, including but not limited to the risk of physical harm, of dealing with strangers, foreign nationals, underage persons or people acting under false pretences. You assume all risks associated with dealing with other users with whom you come in contact through the Website.

Users should be aware that if they join ebeebo their first name, profile details and work details may be viewed by their current employers or other interested parties. ebeebo accepts no liability for any matter arising from such an occurrence.

Types of membership

People who register with ebeebo become "Standard Members". The Membership divides between those who decide to pay a fee to access the message centre, and those who do not who remain "Standard Members". Those who pay the fee become “Subscribers” for the length of time they are paying the fee. Should they defer or suspend payment then they will revert back to being “Standard Members” until they re-subscribe and become “Subscribers” again.

Standard Member

Standard members may post their work requirements, profile notes and related details on the site;

They may also receive messages, which will be sent through the internal email system, notifying them of messages sent by Subscribers which can be viewed in the Message Centre on the site.

Standard Members will receive an email to their chosen email address when a Finder wishes to contact them through the message centre.

Subscriber

A Subscriber has all rights of a Standard member but can also send email messages to both Standard Members and Subscribers via the message centre.

Seekers and Finders

There is no legal or contractual difference between Seekers and Finders. For the purposes of this website, a “Seeker” is looking for work and provides a profile of their skills and work experience. The “Finders” have jobs or contracts and are looking for suitable candidates (the Seekers) to fulfil these roles.

Members Obligations

As a Seeker you must ensure that your profile and other information posted on the ebeebo website contains only factual information about yourself and is not used for any purpose other than advertising yourself as available for employment.

Our purpose is to ensure that Finders get search results that are as clear, informative and appropriate as possible. You agree that we may, at our discretion and without liability to you, remove or amend from ebeebo any profile which is posted in breach of these rules. Our rules may change from time to time and you are advised to refer to them regularly.

You are responsible for the legality of all material you post on the ebeebo. You may not link to an external website, provide email details, instant message details, or advertise other communication methods between a Seeker and Finder from within a profile in order to bypass the message centre thus negating the requirement of a subscription.

You agree to deal fairly, professionally and promptly with Finders with whom contact is made as a result of use of the ebeebo website and will not do anything which may bring ebeebo into disrepute. We do not guarantee that you will generate any response to your profile or work-seeking activities on ebeebo, or that responses will be from suitable Finders.

Certain uses of the site are completely prohibited:
