Your additional responsibilities as a Non-profit

Our role is to provide the platform facilitating these connections, not to oversee them, and we are not party to any subsequent engagement between Volunteers and Non-profits. We do not operate a vetting procedure nor do we run background checks and therefore we cannot take responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of information that any Users provide.

​

Our Services are only open to Non-profits who are directly looking to recruit a Volunteer. You may not use this site or promote an opportunity on behalf of another Non-profit nor duplicate roles by copying other adverts of third parties or advertised by other agencies. You may not use the Site to promote any third party recruitment website or service. Similarly you may not seek commission in recruiting a volunteer.

​

Our Services allow you to upload various materials, including text, images and video, which other Users will see. You must ensure that you have all the necessary rights to use that material and to share it with us and with other Users of our Services, and you must ensure that such material does not contain anything which is unlawful, offensive, obscene or defamatory.

​

You retain all of your ownership rights in your content, but you are required to grant us and Users of the Services a limited licence to use, store and copy that content and to distribute and make it available to third parties. The rights you licence to us are described in the section ‘Intellectual Property Rights’.

​

All opportunities posted must comply with laws protecting equal opportunities and preventing discrimination. We reserve the right to remove from our Services any opportunity which you post in breach of these terms.
