Terms of Use

Effective Date: 07/31/18

1. Introduction

Welcome to the website (the “Site”) of SkyHive Technologies Inc. (“SkyHive”, “we”, or “us”).

Please read these terms of use (the “Terms”) carefully before using the Site and any services provided by SkyHive through or in relation to the Site (the “Services”). The Terms apply to all persons and entities who visit the Site or use or access any of the Services (“Users”).

The Terms are a contract between you and SkyHive, and explain the terms by which you may use and access SkyHive's Site and Services. By using the Services, including by accessing or browsing the Site, you agree to be bound by the Terms.

SkyHive reserves the right to change, modify, or remove portions of the Terms (including the Privacy Policy) at any time by posting revised Terms, and you agree to be bound by such changes, modifications, additions, or deletions. Your continued use of the Site and Services after any such change constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If, at any time, the Terms are no longer acceptable to you, you must immediately cease your use of the Services.

2. Additional Terms

The Terms incorporate the SkyHive Privacy Policy. Certain features of the Services may also have their own specific terms that may be presented to you on the Site (“Specific Terms of Service”). Those terms and conditions (once accepted, if acceptance is required) are immediately incorporated by reference into, and form part of, the Terms.

In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms of any other agreement you may have with SkyHive (including Specific Terms of Service), the other terms between you and SkyHive will govern and take priority over the Terms.

3. Types of Users

    Users that use the Services to match for potential employees, view skills profiles, or post or distribute job openings (“Job Openings”) on behalf of themselves or a third party, or use similar or related Services are referred to as an “Employer”.

    If you use SkyHive on behalf of an Employer, organization, agency, institution, or other entity, then (a) “you” includes you and that entity, and (b) you represent and warrant that you are an authorized representative of that entity with the authority to bind the entity to the Terms, and that you agree to the Terms on the entity's behalf.
