By posting positions on the AltAssets service you warrant to accept full responsibility for ensuring your posted details are legal and comply fully with both English law and AltAssets' own terms and conditions as detailed herein. By posting an executive position you warrant to accept these terms and conditions as principal, even if you are acting in the capacity of agent for the actual advertiser.

You further agree to indemnify AltAssets from and against any claim brought by an individual against AltAssets arising from your breach of these obligations or any other breach of these terms and conditions.

The requirements for your vacancy must be in complete accordance with, but not limited to, the UK Sex Discrimination Act 1975 and the Race Relations Act 1976, and you should manage your interview process in accordance with this and all other relevent legislation. Employers outside the UK should also ensure postitions posted adhere to any local laws which may apply to your domestic recruitment process.

If you are a recruitment agency, headhunter or an employment business, it is your sole responsibility in addition to the above, to also ensure your advertisements comply with your full obligations under the Employment Agencies Act 1973 and the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations Act 1976 as well as all other applicable legal regulations. Recruitment businesses outside the UK should also ensure postitions posted adhere to any local laws which may apply to your domestic recruitment process.

AltAssets reserves the right to reject any job advertisement that it deems is offensive, inappropriate, discriminates, or violates either our internal guidelines and/or English law. AltAssets does not guarantee any response to your executive posting or that responses will be from candidates suitable for the position you advertised. It is your responsibility to carry out the necessary checks and procedures to ensure that candidates are suitable for the job advertised.

Your job postings will be available on AltAssets for four weeks (28 days) and you should be available to receive responses throughout this period. It is possible that candidates who have recorded your contact information will contact you after this period and it is your responsibility to remove job postings early in the event you fill your vacancy.

Your handling of candiate and other information supplied must comply with the UK Data Protection Act 1998 and all subsequent legislation and regulations. You may not license, swap or sell content submitted by candidates to any other person or allow any use of the beforementioned information other than for the explicit purpose of finding suitable candidates for job vacancies.

To meet our guidelines your advertised post must contain a job title, a description and requirement for the position, the location of the role and details for contacting you for the purposes of applying for the position vacant.

You must never advertise for a preferred sex, race or age of applicant. Information supplied must not infringe on any rights of any third party or be obscene, blasphemous or defamatory.

You also warrant you will deal fairly and in a professional manner with individuals who may respond to executive positions you have posted and not do anything which may bring AltAssets and its good name into disrepute.

Any password issued to you is for your use only. If an additional employee of your company requires access to the AltAssets recruitment system, he or she must obtain an additional password from AltAssets.
