If this is possible, we will, as far as possible, use the information you have provided to us to complete the application for you.

We utilise a number of cloud-based Services (including our servers) which may not be based in the country in which you are accessing the Services (or within the EU) and which may result in your data being transferred between various countries.

Countries in which we process or hold your data may have laws that are different to those of your own country and may not be regarded as providing protection to a standard deemed by the United Kingdom to be adequate. As far as is possible in these situations we undertake reasonable due diligence on the service provide concerned and will take steps to ensure that the processing of your data is safeguarded either through the inclusion of standard contractual clauses (SCCs) approved by the Information Commissioner’s Office in our contract with the third parties or through negotiated terms and conditions that provide appropriate protection.

This includes data that we may have obtained via third-party platforms through which you have provided your information, for example in applying for job opportunities distributed to our partner network or where our roles have been ‘scraped’ by others and you have applied via their Services. We may extract your information and contact you where we have a reasonable belief, based on the source of such data and the context of its acquisition, that you would have an interest in the Services we provide, and we have determined that informing you about the Services taking into account balance of interests would not be detrimental to you.

This offer will be deemed to be accepted, and the Contract between the Parties, comprising the Order Form, these Terms and the Data Processing Agreement (the “Contract”) shall become effective, on the date the Order Form is signed on behalf of the Company (including by e-signature) (the “Commencement Date”). 
2.3. Any correspondence between the Parties, whether written or oral, prior to the Commencement Date, including any quotations from inploi or offers to pay a certain price by the Company, will not be regarded as offers to enter into a contract.

2.4. The Terms will apply to the exclusion of any other terms proposed by the Company or that the Company seeks to impose or incorporate, or which are implied by law, trade custom, practice or course of dealing.

Subject to clause 6, the relationship between the Parties is that of independent contractors and nothing in this Contract shall be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship between the Parties, nor authorise any Party to make or enter into any commitments for or on behalf of the other Party. Each Party confirms it is acting on its own behalf and not for the benefit of any other person. The Parties acknowledge that the arrangements between them are non-exclusive. Nothing contained in this Contract shall prohibit either of the Parties from conducting business activities with other third parties.
