WalkableJobs

Terms of service

Last updated

Thanks for using WalkableJobs. These terms are short because the site is simple: it shows jobs near where you live. Using the site means you agree to them.

When we say “we”, we mean WalkableJobs. “You” is anyone using the site. You can reach us at hello@walkablejobs.com.

Using the site

The site is free. Use it as a person looking for work, or to help someone who is. Do not run automated tools against it or copy its listings in bulk. Our server limits how many requests one network address can make and refuses the rest, and we may block anyone who abuses the site.

The listings

Most of the jobs on the map come from employers’ own career sites. We collect them, place them on the map and show the details the employer published. The rest are posted here by an account we have linked to the employer: someone who hires for it, or a recruiter whose jobs are listed under the recruiting company’s name. We are not the employer and we do not handle applications: an apply button takes you to the employer’s site or to the job board the poster named, or starts a text message or an email from your own phone or mail app to the number or address the poster gave. A posted job can have more than one of these. What happens from there is between you and them.

A listing can be out of date or wrong about pay or location. If you spot one, report it from the listing and we will look. The distance shown is a straight line from the point you set, so check the route before you count on it.

Posting jobs

An account can post jobs only after we have linked it to an employer, which we decide by hand. If yours is linked, post only jobs that are real and open, that you are allowed to fill, and that are worked at the Georgia address you post them at. Describe the work and the pay accurately, and give at least one way to apply that works for that job: a link that takes people to where they can apply, a phone number that takes text messages, an email address, or more than one of them.

A job you post starts hidden and is published under the employer’s name when you make it visible. It closes when you close it, and by itself 30 days after you made it visible or last renewed it. Posting is free. We can correct where a location sits on the map, close or remove a job, or unlink an account, if a job breaks these terms or misleads the people looking for work. A job we remove stays in your listings, marked removed, and cannot be edited or made visible again unless we lift the removal; you can ask us to review it through the contact form. If you delete your account while a job is removed, we keep our record of that job, as the privacy policy describes.

What you send us

Anything you send through a form, whether a message, a report, a waitlist email, or a location or a job you post as an employer, you allow us to store and use to run and improve the site, as the privacy policy describes. It stays yours.

What is ours

The site’s design, code and the way it puts listings on a map are ours. Do not copy them without asking. Map tiles are © CARTO and © OpenStreetMap contributors. Job details belong to the employers who published them.

Changes to the site

We may change or remove any part of the site at any time, with or without notice. We do not promise the site will be available, free of errors or right for what you need.

Liability

The site is provided as is. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss that comes from using the site or from relying on a listing, including a job that turns out to be filled, to pay differently or to be further away than it looked.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of the State of Georgia, United States.

Changes to these terms

We may change these terms. When we do, the date at the top of this page changes with them, and using the site after that means you accept the new terms.
