The website at www.disabilitynetwork.co.uk (the "Website") is operated by Job Boards Media Ltd under licence from its owner. References to "we", "us", "Disability Network" or "our" are references to Job Boards Media Ltd. We are a company registered in England and Wales (company number 08487075), and our address for correspondence is: Venture House 2 Arlington Square, Downshire Way, Bracknell, England, RG12 1WA, United Kingdom.

The following terms and conditions apply to all booking placed by the Client (hereinafter referred to as ”you” or "user"). Your use of the Website and your use and/or purchase of our Products and Services is at all times subject to these Terms and Conditions as applicable (which forms a legally binding contract between you and us) and all applicable laws.

Formation of Contract

A binding contract is formed upon acceptance of a Booking by Disability Network or upon commencement of the Services, whichever occurs first. These Terms shall apply to the exclusion of any other terms unless expressly agreed in writing.

Changes to Terms and Conditions

We reserve the right, from time to time, with or without notice to you, to change these Terms and Conditions at our sole discretion. The Terms and Conditions applicable to your access to and use of this Website and your use and/or purchase of our Products and Services will be the version that is current and displayed on this Website as at each date you access this Website or use and/or purchase our Products and Services (as applicable). Your use of this Website or your use and/or purchase of our Products and Services after changes are made means that you agree to be bound by such changes.

We shall be entitled at anytime without notifying the Client to make changes to the Services which are necessary to comply with any applicable security or other statutory requirements and shall determine the manner in which the Services are provided.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. The parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

Provision of Services and Availability

Disability Network shall use reasonable care and skill in providing the Services. The Client acknowledges that the Services are promotional in nature and that no guarantee is given as to visibility, response rates, applications, recruitment outcomes, or that the Services will be uninterrupted or error free.

Disability Network shall not be liable for any delay, interruption, failure to provide the Services, or unavailability of the Site caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including the failure or interruption of third party systems.

Where any such circumstance arises, the Client shall remain liable to pay the Fees, except where otherwise agreed in writing at Disability Network’s discretion.

Advertising Services

The Client agrees to provide Disability Network, in such a format as may be requested, any information, design work, artwork, and logos necessary to enable provision of the Services. Disability Network shall not be obliged to provide the Services until the Client has supplied the necessary materials. Such information shall be supplied within 7 days of the date of the Contract, or such later date as agreed.

Disability Network shall make such modifications to any Advertisement as are reasonably requested by the Client, and reserves the right to charge at the rate of £25 per hour for time involved in such modifications.

Agency bookings must quote the Agency Booking Reference (Purchase Order) provided when the Agency booked the media. Bookings will not be accepted without a Booking Reference. By submitting a booking with a Purchase Order number, the agency agrees to these Terms and Conditions.

The Client accepts that Disability Network cannot guarantee the number of occasions or response on which any individual Advertisement appears on the Site.

Disability Network may refuse, withdraw, or require amendment of any artwork, materials, or copy which is illegal, immoral, obscene, or offensive, or to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, or to avoid infringing a third party's rights.

Client Obligations

The Client warrants that all content provided:

- is accurate, lawful, and not misleading
- complies with all applicable legislation and regulations
- does not infringe the rights of any third party

Disability Network reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to refuse, amend, suspend, or remove any content.

Agency Bookings and Employer Authority

Where a booking is placed by a recruitment agency, media agency, or other third party on behalf of an end employer, that party warrants that it has full authority to act for and bind the employer in relation to the booking and these Terms, approve the use of the employer’s name, logo, and branding, and accept these Terms on the employer’s behalf, including any clause relating to use of name and branding.

Disability Network may rely on that warranty without enquiry and may use the employer’s name, logo, and branding from the date of booking for the purposes set out in these Terms unless it receives a written removal request from the employer or an authorised representative.

The agency or third party is solely responsible for ensuring such authority exists. Disability Network accepts no liability for any dispute arising from any lack of authority.

The agency or third party shall indemnify and keep indemnified Disability Network against all claims, losses, damages, costs, and liabilities arising from or connected with any breach of this clause or any lack of authority.

Contract Subscription

For all contracts a minimum of 12 months commitment is mandatory, unless otherwise agreed; thereafter we require 72 hours notice in writing to cancel the booking. If the Advertiser cancels 30 days or less then a cancellation charge of 100% of the invoice will be applied. These sums represent a bona fide estimate of the loss and damage likely to be suffered by us as a result of the cancellation and are not intended as a penalty. Failure to adhere to these deadlines may result in the forfeit of the inventory.

Subscription of Services which are to be used only within the period of time specified in the Service Agreement; then in each case the Client shall still be responsible for the full payment of the Fees as if the Services had been properly and fully provided (and for the avoidance of doubt we shall not be liable for providing any unused Services and such Services may not be carried over to any subsequent period).

Traffic

All traffic will be delivered to the website address submitted by the Advertiser. In the event of an error in the submitted URL, the Client will not hold Disability Network or its partner sites responsible. Disability Network cannot control the acts of individuals viewing a site and will not be held responsible for those actions.

Disability Network cannot be held responsible for factors beyond its control that may interfere with delivery of visitors, including server downtime, bandwidth errors, site errors, or network outages.

Delivery Policy

Job postings will be made live as promptly as possible. Once live, the Advertiser will receive a confirmation email with a direct link to their job posting.

Fees and Payment

Fees shall be as agreed at the time of Booking. All prices and quotes exclude VAT, commission, and booking discount. It is the sole responsibility of the Advertiser to notify the Disability Network Sales Executive of any applicable agency commission or booking discount before placing a recruitment advertisement.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, payments are due within 30 days of invoice. Disability Network reserves the right to suspend or terminate Services in the event of non-payment.

Interest on Late Payments

If any sum payable under these Terms is not paid by the due date, Disability Network reserves the right to charge interest on the overdue amount. Interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment, whether before or after judgment, at a rate of 4 percent per annum above the base rate of the Bank of England from time to time.

Disability Network also reserves the right to recover reasonable costs incurred in the collection of overdue amounts, including administrative costs, legal fees, and debt recovery charges. Payment of interest and costs shall not affect the Client's obligation to pay the overdue amount in full.

Communication and Liability

Email communications are intended only for the individual to whom they are addressed and may contain privileged or confidential information. If you are not the intended recipient, any dissemination, distribution, or copying is strictly prohibited.

Neither Disability Network nor any of its agents accept liability for statements made which are clearly the sender's own and not expressly made on behalf of Disability Network. Neither Disability Network nor its agents accept responsibility for viruses contained in emails or attachments.

Third Party Platforms and Application Data

Where the Services involve distribution through third party platforms or redirection to third party systems, including the Client’s own systems, Disability Network shall not be responsible for the availability, performance, content standards, actions, or data handling of those platforms or systems. Disability Network shall use reasonable efforts to facilitate distribution but cannot guarantee the operation or actions of any third party system outside its control.

Disability Network does not control, monitor, or verify applications completed through third party systems. Any reporting provided by Disability Network is limited to activity recorded within Disability Network’s own platform.
