By accepting the referral and the data processing you declare that:

  • You agree to be a candidate for a job offer through the platform, in total freedom and autonomy, and therefore be subject to the provisions of point 2.4

  • You release TCA from any responsibility for the truthfulness, accuracy, updating and completeness of the information provided by the person making the recommendation.

 

2.6 Talent pool.

To provide a more efficient service, TCA also makes use of a talent pool, that is a database where it contains the information of the candidates, up to the expiry of the terms of use of this information.

All information useful to determine if your profile matches the one sought in the job bounties will be stored in the talent pool.

No information in the talent pool will be passed on to third parties without your express approval and strictly in reference to a specific job offer.

 

3. Compensation terms

The compensation methods and times for each bounty are specified in the bounty itself.

  • recommendation of individuals who have previously refused recommendations for the same job offer;

  • recommendation of individuals who already have a pending recommendation for the same job offer;

  • recommendation of individuals who are not eligible to be considered candidates under the terms presented in this document;
