Acceptance and changes to these Terms

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of www.talentology.com.au (Site), operated by Talentology Pty Ltd (ABN 85 617 895 342) (we, us, our). By accessing and/or using our Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

We may vary these Terms at any time by publishing the updated Terms on our Site. Changes take effect from the date they are published, and your continued use of the Site after that date means you accept the updated Terms. We recommend checking this page periodically.

About Talentology

Talentology provides career coaching, representation and community services to experienced IT professionals. We are not a recruitment agency. We do not provide recruitment or labour hire services, we do not advertise vacancies on behalf of employers, and we do not charge employers placement fees.

Through Fractional+45 we introduce employers and recruiters to consultants in our network free of charge. Any engagement that follows is made directly between the employer or recruiter and the consultant (or their business). Talentology is not the employer of, or a labour hire provider for, any consultant introduced through Fractional+45, and is not a party to that engagement unless we agree otherwise in writing.

Our coaching and representation help you become more visible and better positioned in the job market. We do not guarantee that you will secure a role, contract or any particular outcome.

Licence to use the website

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a non-exclusive, royalty-free, revocable, worldwide, non-transferable licence to access and use the Site for your own personal or internal business purposes (for example, to learn about our programs, register for an event, book a session, join our community or engage with our content). This licence does not permit any commercial use or on-sale of the Site or its content.

Prohibited conduct

When using the Site, you must not:

• Engage in any unlawful conduct or breach any applicable law or regulation;
• Breach another person's privacy, or harass, defame or abuse another person;
• Interfere with the operation, security or accessibility of the Site;
• Transmit any virus, malware or other harmful code;
• Send unsolicited communications through or in connection with the Site; or
• Use the Site to build a competing product or service, or to scrape, harvest or reproduce our content for commercial purposes.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms.

Content disclaimer

Content on the Site is provided for general information purposes only and does not take into account your individual circumstances. It should not be relied on as career, legal, financial or professional advice. We make no representation or warranty as to the accuracy, completeness or currency of any content on the Site, except as set out below. Success stories and results described on the Site reflect the experience of individual clients and are not a promise of the same result for you.

Australian Consumer Law. Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any guarantee, right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or any other applicable law. Where we supply services to you as a consumer within the meaning of that law, our liability is limited, to the extent permitted by law, to resupplying the services or paying the cost of having them resupplied.

Intellectual property

Unless otherwise indicated, we own or licence all rights, title and interest (including copyright, trade marks and other intellectual property rights) in the Site and its content, including text, graphics, logos, and the names and branding of Talentology, CareerAGILITY, The Hustle Game, CareerAGENT, Fractional+45, CareerGUARD, CareerGYM, the Job Seeker Café and the H.I.R.E.D. Podcast, together with our frameworks such as The 7 Levels of Job Seeking. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, modify, frame or embed any part of the Site without our prior written consent, except as permitted by the limited licence above or by law.

User-generated content

If you submit, post or otherwise provide content to us through the Site or our programs (for example, a testimonial, success story, resume, form submission or community post), you grant us a worldwide, irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free licence to use, reproduce, adapt, publish and display that content in connection with operating and promoting our services. You must only submit content that you have the right to share, and that does not breach any law or infringe anyone else's rights.

Limitation of liability and indemnity

To the maximum extent permitted by law, and subject to the Australian Consumer Law section above, we are not liable for any loss, damage or expense (including indirect or consequential loss), however caused, arising from your access to or use of the Site, including from any inaccuracy, unavailability, security incident or interruption to the Site.

You agree to indemnify us against any loss, damage, cost or expense we suffer arising from your breach of these Terms or your misuse of the Site, except to the extent caused by our own negligence or wilful misconduct.

Fair dealing with our clients

Where we enter a separate services agreement with you (for example, to coach you through CareerAGILITY or The Hustle Game, to represent you through CareerAGENT, or to support you through CareerGUARD or CareerGYM), and that agreement is a standard form contract with a small business (broadly, a business with fewer than 100 employees or less than $10 million annual turnover), we will not seek to rely on any term of that agreement that would be an unfair contract term under the Australian Consumer Law. This reflects reforms to the unfair contract terms regime that commenced on 9 November 2023 and materially increased the penalties for including or relying on such terms. If you believe a term in an agreement with us is unfair, please raise it with us using the contact details below.

Dispute resolution

If a dispute arises out of or in connection with these Terms, the party raising the dispute must give the other party written notice setting out the details of the dispute. The parties must then make genuine, good-faith efforts to resolve the dispute through negotiation within 21 days of that notice before commencing any court proceedings, except where a party seeks urgent interlocutory relief.

Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. You irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales and any courts entitled to hear appeals from those courts.
