Our role
1. Unless otherwise specified in the Special Terms of a particular Website, we are a provider of information society services, we provide intermediary (hosting) services and we operate the Websites – online platforms as they are defined under Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 October 2022 on a Single Market For Digital Services (Digital Services Act) and amending Directive 2000/31/EC.
2. We are not the owner or the seller of the goods or services offered on the Website. Notwithstanding the fact that we impose very strict requirements on such persons, to the maximum extent permitted by law we are not liable for the descriptions, advertising and other information provided on the Website concerning goods and services, for the legality, quality, safety, labelling, delivery, exchange, return and/or quality guarantee of goods and services, or for whether and how third parties will conclude and perform a purchase or services contract; we do not control and do not ensure their reliability or solvency and we are not liable for any damage arising from any of the circumstances specified in this clause. We do not act as an intermediary between you and such third party in the resolution of disputes, except in the cases expressly provided for in legal acts and in the procedures specified in the Agreement.
Registration and login details
1. In order to use certain Services, you must register, create an account (hereinafter – the Account) and provide all the information requested during registration.
2. Unless expressly specified otherwise in the Special Terms of a particular Website, you may not create, hold, manage or use more than one Account. You may not transfer the account or allow it to be managed or used by another person without our prior written consent.
3. We may carry out checks in order to ensure the authenticity and security of the Account. For this purpose we may ask you to provide additional data, to correct inaccurate or incomplete data, to answer security questions and to confirm the information specified in the Account (for example, a telephone number or e-mail address).
4. We have the right, at our discretion, not to allow you to register and/or to create an Account, as well as to refuse to activate it or to delete an Account which has already been created. We do this only in exceptional cases and most frequently because, for example, you provide misleading, inaccurate or incomplete information during registration, you fail to provide additional information or fail to confirm it when we so request, you use or attempt to use data belonging to or related to another person without that person’s consent, you have already been removed from the Website or your Account has previously been deleted, you use an identifier (e.g. a user name, e-mail address) which infringes the rights of third parties or is misleadingly associated with our services, or we reasonably believe that you may pose a threat to the security of the Website, to its operation, to other users or to our legitimate interests, or that you may otherwise breach the Agreement. If you contact us in this regard, we will explain the reasons.
5. When creating an Account, you may not use identifiers (e.g. a user name or e-mail address) which are identical or confusingly similar to the name of any of our Websites, which use our trademarks or names or those of third parties or imitations thereof, or which may create a false impression that we or third parties are related to you, endorse you or have granted you any rights or authorisations.
6. Throughout the term of validity of the Agreement you must ensure that the data contained in the Account is correct, accurate and complete. We will rely on the presumption that this is so, and we are not liable for damage incurred by you or by third parties as a result of incorrect or inaccurate data.
7. You must ensure the security of your login details (including passwords), must not disclose them to third parties, and you assume responsibility for all actions performed using your login details. In such case all obligations and liability rest with you to the maximum extent.
8. If you fail to comply with the obligations established in this section, we have the right, immediately and without separate warning, to apply to you the restrictions provided for in clause 11.1 of the General Terms, as well as other measures permitted by the Agreement or by legal acts.
9. Where the Agreement provides for an obligation to refrain from certain actions, that obligation also covers the prohibition on directly or indirectly assisting, encouraging, enabling or creating conditions for other persons to perform such actions or to refrain from them.

Your Content must comply with the requirements of legal acts, of these General Terms, of the Community Rules and of the requirements specified in the Special Terms of each Website.
Intellectual property rights
1. All intellectual property rights in the Websites, their content, databases, names, trademarks, know-how, and commercial and industrial secrets belong to us or are used lawfully under licences granted by third parties.

4. We may exercise the rights specified in clause 6.2 of the General Terms for both commercial and non-commercial purposes, and we will not be obliged to pay any remuneration for this to you or to any other persons (including collective management organisations).
5. From the moment established in clause 6.2 of the General Terms, you also grant us rights to the image, name, title and private life information of the persons appearing in the Content, to the same extent, in the same territory and for the same period as specified in clause 6.2.
6. You confirm and warrant that, at the time of the transfer of the Content to us and throughout the time the Content is on the Website:

This Agreement does not grant you any intellectual property rights in such information. If, nevertheless, such information is made available to you on a particular Website or in your Account, this means that we grant you a non-exclusive, limited, non-transferable right (licence) to use such information provided to you solely (i) for the purposes of using the Services and (ii) only during the term of validity of the Agreement. We grant you an analogous licence also in cases where you are a consumer and apply to us requesting that we provide information about you other than personal data.
8. We reserve the right to use all data and information contained on the Website, including but not limited to publicly available Content or Content submitted by you, for the purposes of text and data mining, the development, training, improvement, testing and analysis of artificial intelligence systems and for similar purposes. You undertake not to use the data or information contained on the Website for the aforementioned or similar purposes without our express prior written consent.
Our other rights and obligations
1. We will make reasonable efforts to ensure that the Websites operate smoothly and that the Services are provided properly.
2. If advertising is published on the Website, it will be clearly marked and identifiable. If the advertising is personalised, we will ensure that (i) it is possible to identify the person on whose behalf the advertisement is presented, (ii) it is possible to identify the person who paid for the advertisement, if that person is not the same as the person on whose behalf the advertisement is presented, and (iii) meaningful information is provided about the main parameters used to select the advertisement and, where applicable, about the possibilities of changing those parameters. We do not display personalised advertising based on special categories of personal data and we do not apply profiling to minors where we know or may reasonably know that a user is a minor. We take measures to ensure that advertising providers comply with these requirements.
3. We have the right at any time, without separate notice to you:
  1. to change, at our discretion, the Websites, the Services or parts thereof, including the content, functions and payment methods;
  2. to assess the correctness, accuracy and completeness of the login details provided by you and, upon establishing that they are misleading or do not comply with the Agreement and/or legal acts, not to register you, to delete the Account, to block or edit the data and to take other necessary measures;
  3. during preventive or technical maintenance, to restrict or suspend access to the Websites, the Account or the Services. In such case we may inform you by a general notice on the Website or by other means;
  4. with a view to preventing breaches of the Agreement or of legal acts and to ensuring the exercise of our rights and the performance of your obligations, to monitor your actions on the Websites; and
  5. to discontinue the operation of any Website or the provision of the Services.
Your other rights and obligations
1. You have the right to use the Services in accordance with the procedure established in the Agreement. When using them, you must act lawfully and must not infringe applicable legal acts or our rights or the rights of other users or third parties. You are fully liable for all actions performed while using the Services and for the consequences arising therefrom.
2. You undertake:

  4. not to use the Websites, their content or the Services in order to carry out or advertise competing activities. Competing activity shall mean any activity directly and indirectly competing with the Website, as this is understood in competition law.
3. You have the right to notify us of illegal content on the Websites by using the functionality intended for that purpose (if such functionality is implemented on the website) or by e-mail. Notices must be made in good faith – do not abuse them and submit them only in those cases where the content is indeed illegal. The Community Rules specify in greater detail what we consider to be illegal content. When submitting a notice, you must specify (i) a clear link to the content in question, (ii) an explanation of why, in your opinion, the content is illegal, and (iii) your name, surname, contact information and other related information.
4. In compliance with legal acts and our procedures, we will examine your notice, assess whether the content is indeed illegal and, if so, take the appropriate measures. If you provide your contact details, we will confirm receipt of the notice and, having carried out the assessment, will inform you of the decision taken.
5. Notices submitted by recognised trusted flaggers are examined as a matter of priority in accordance with the procedures established by legal acts. The list of trusted flaggers can be found here: https://www.rrt.lt/skaitmeniniu-paslaugu-aktas/patikimi-pranesejai/.
Reviews
1. On some Websites you and other persons may submit reviews and ratings. All reviews and ratings must be honest and based on your personal experience. You undertake not to submit misleading or false reviews, including reviews which are submitted for remuneration, by using automated means or by otherwise manipulating ratings. In addition, when writing reviews you must comply with the Community Rules and with the requirements specified in the Special Terms of such Website.
2. We will ensure that reviews may be submitted only by those persons who have used the services or purchased the goods, and we will take measures to prevent paid and automated reviews.
3. All reviews and ratings submitted by you are considered to be your Content, to which the provisions on the Content apply.
4. We may remove, modify or restrict reviews if they breach the requirements of applicable legal acts or of the Agreement or mislead other users. In such case, if we have your contact details, we will provide a clear statement of the reasons for our decision.
5. Business users about whom a review has been written have the right to submit a response to such review. The response must relate solely to the content of the review and must comply with the Community Rules.
Recommendations
1. If recommender or ranking systems are used on the Website by means of which the Services are offered to visitors and the content of the Websites is presented, including the arrangement and priority of goods, services, users, reviews or other information, we ensure their transparency. In the Special Terms we will clearly indicate and explain how such systems operate, which main parameters influence the arrangement and priority of content, goods, services, users, reviews or other information, and how you may change or influence these parameters, where such possibility is provided.
2. Where personalised recommender systems are used, you have the right to choose the order in which the content is presented (for example, chronological).
3. In those cases where the arrangement of the content is influenced by paid advertising, sponsorship services or other commercial arrangements, such influence will be clearly marked (“advertisement”, “sponsor” or similar) so that it can be distinguished from organic recommendations and rankings. We will also provide information on who has paid for such advertising and on the main parameters determining why the advertisement is displayed.
Restriction and termination of the Services
1. We have the right, at our discretion, to restrict or cancel your ability to use any Website and Service, to cease publishing or to delete your Content, to delete your Account, to prohibit re-registration, to terminate the Agreement unilaterally or to apply other measures if:
  1. you breach this Agreement or the warranties or confirmations provided by you prove to be or become incorrect or incomplete;
  2. you grossly breach the Community Rules;
  3. you have failed to pay for paid Services in accordance with the procedure established in the Agreement;
  4. you provide misleading, incorrect or incomplete information when registering or using the Website;
  5. this is necessary due to technical maintenance or update works;
  6. this is necessary in order to protect our rights and legitimate interests or those of third parties;
  7. this is required by legal acts or by competent authorities;
  8. we reasonably suspect that you pose or may pose a threat to the security or operation of the Website or to the interests of other users;
  9. you frequently provide manifestly illegal Content;
  10. you abuse and frequently submit manifestly unfounded notices or complaints;
  11. in other cases specified in the Agreement.
2. We will apply restrictions in respect of manifestly illegal Content and manifestly unfounded notices or complaints having warned you in advance, and when taking a decision in each case we will act in a timely, diligent and objective manner, assessing all the facts and circumstances known to us, including the following criteria:
  1. the number of manifestly unfounded notices or complaints within a certain period;
  2. their relative share compared with the total number of items of Content or notices submitted during that period;
  3. the gravity of the abuse, including the nature of the illegal Content and the possible consequences;
  4. where this can be established – your intentions.
  In the Community Rules we provide examples of such assessments.
3. We may apply the measures provided for in this section also in the case where the conditions specified above arise on another Website operated by us. For example, if you breach the rules of one Website, we have the right to apply the relevant measures both on that particular Website and on other Websites.
4. Decisions on restrictions will be taken by a qualified specialist having the necessary experience and knowledge. We will not take decisions solely by automated means.
5. The restrictions applied will remain in force until the reasons for their application and the consequences thereof have been eliminated, or until, having examined your complaint in accordance with the procedure specified in section 17, we recognise it as justified, whichever event occurs earlier. Thereafter the provision of the Services, if it was suspended, will be resumed, and access to your Account and to the personal and other data which arose while you were using the Services prior to the restriction, if such access was restricted, will be restored, unless we decide to terminate the Agreement pursuant to clause 11.1 of the General Terms.
6. If we have your contact details, we will inform you before the restriction or suspension takes effect or at the same time, and will provide a clear and specific statement of the reasons for the decision on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail). Having received such information, you may make use of the means of appeal established in clause 16.1 of the General Terms.
7. Upon deletion of the Account for any reasons whatsoever (including in cases where you do so yourself), you lose the ability to use those Services which require registration. In such case we may, at our discretion, delete all or part of the information contained in your Account.
8. Unless otherwise specified in the Special Terms of a particular Website, upon the application of restrictions the monies paid are not refunded, and the term of validity of the Services is not extended or transferred to another Service.
Liability and the limitation thereof
1. You are fully liable for damage which you have caused to us or to third parties by using the Websites or the Services. You undertake to compensate for all losses, expenses, damage or other claims which may arise for us, our employees, partners or related persons as a result of your acts or omissions, including breaches of the Agreement.
2. We do not warrant that the Websites or the Services will operate without disruptions, without errors, properly, uninterruptedly, in a timely manner, in full or without adverse consequences for you or for third parties.

Validity of the Agreement
1. Unless the Special Terms of a particular Website provide otherwise, the Agreement concerning the services of each Website enters into force from the moment you begin to use such Website or the Services provided therein, e.g. you start browsing the Website or you register, and is valid for an indefinite period until it is terminated in accordance with the rules established in this section.

4. We may also terminate any Agreement on our own initiative, without any fault on your part, by informing you 30 days in advance. We have the right not to observe this notice period and to terminate any Agreement immediately if we are subject to a legal or regulatory obligation to cease the provision of the Services to you in such a manner that it is impossible to observe that notice period; or if we exercise the right to terminate the provision of the Services for an overriding reason under applicable law; or if we can prove that you have breached the Agreement on several occasions.
5. The special terms of a particular Website may provide for a minimum term of use of the Services and for the consequences of the expiry of the Agreement during that term.
6. Upon expiry of the Agreement, you lose the right to use the Services and to access your Account. We have the right, at our discretion, to delete all or part of the information stored in your Account, except in cases where legal acts oblige us to store it for a longer period.
7. Except as specified in clause 11.3 of the General Terms, the expiry of the Agreement in respect of one Website does not affect the agreements in respect of other Websites, if such have been concluded.

Dispute resolution
1. If you have complaints concerning the Services, our decisions to restrict, block or delete the Account, to remove or modify the Content, to suspend the provision of the Services, to refuse the registration of a new Account or other restrictions applied, you have the right, within 6 months from the day of receipt of the decision, to submit a complaint to us. You may submit the complaint by the e-mail address specified on the particular Website.

If we recognise the complaint as justified, our decision will be revoked or amended, the provision of the Services, if it was suspended, will be resumed, and access to your Account and to the personal and other data which arose while you were using the Services prior to the restriction, if such access was restricted, will be restored.
4. Your complaints will be examined by a qualified specialist having the necessary experience and knowledge. We will not take decisions solely by automated means.

This does not preclude your right to defend your infringed rights directly in court.

Our role in resolving disputes between you and the seller is limited to the intermediation actions described in the Special Terms of the Website.
7. Disputes which cannot be resolved in accordance with the procedure described in this section shall be resolved in the courts of the Republic of Lithuania in Vilnius.

We do not control and do not verify the content of Job Advertisements, the correctness of the conditions offered or the Employer’s selection process, we do not guarantee that by using the Website you will find work or receive a job offer, and we are not an employer, an intermediary, a provider of recruitment or employment services, an agent or a party to the contract between you and the Employer, nor do we participate in your communication, selection or conclusion of a contract with the Employer. You choose the Employer independently, at your own risk and responsibility, and we are not liable for damage arising from your relations with the Employer.
3. Nothing in the Agreement may be construed in such a way as to restrict or limit your rights as a consumer which are granted to you by applicable law.
The CV and its visibility
1. In a registered Account you may create and post your CV and edit, update or remove it at any time.
2. You control the visibility of your CV by selecting one of the CV visibility statuses available on the Website: (i) CV visible to employers - your CV becomes accessible to those Employers who have access to the CV database and who may contact you regarding selection or employment; contact details are provided to Employers to the extent specified on the Website; (ii) CV not visible to employers - your CV is stored in your Account and is not displayed to Employers in the CV database, but is visible to those Employers to whom you send it yourself. You may change the CV visibility status at any time.
3. In your CV and in other information provided about yourself on the Website, you must provide correct, accurate, up-to-date and non-misleading information about yourself, your education, qualifications, work experience and contact details. You are liable for damage which may arise for Employers or third parties as a result of incorrect or misleading information provided by you.

5. With a view to ensuring that only clear and accurate information is provided to Employers, we have the right, before providing the CV to Employers, to review it, to correct obvious errors of a technical nature (spelling, form) without changing the substance of the CV, and also not to publish or to remove the CV or a part thereof where it breaches the Agreement or applicable legal acts. This right does not create an obligation for us to review every CV and does not release you from the liability established in clause 3.3.
6. You may at any time delete your CV or delete your Account in the Account settings. Once the CV is deleted, it is immediately removed from the CV database and becomes inaccessible to Employers; in the case of applications already transferred, the transferred data is further processed by the Employer independently, as specified in clause 4.4. More detailed information about data retention periods is provided in the Privacy Policy.
Applying and the transfer of data to Employers
1. You may apply to Job Advertisements only through the Website system, by clicking the “Send CV” function located next to the Job Advertisement. By applying, you agree that your CV, contact details and the information submitted together with the application which is necessary in order to assess your candidacy and to contact you will be transferred to the Employer which published the Job Advertisement.
2. Your data becomes accessible to the Employer in two ways: (i) upon your submission of an application to a specific Job Advertisement in accordance with the procedure established in clause 4.1; and (ii) upon your making your CV visible to employers - in which case the CV becomes accessible to Employers through the CV database, as specified in clause 3.2.
3. Some Job Advertisements may be anonymous (hereinafter - Anonymous Advertisements), i.e. the Employer’s name or other information directly revealing its identity is not disclosed to you in advance (on the Website such an Employer is marked with a neutral designation, for example, “CVbankas.lt client”). By applying to an Anonymous Advertisement, you understand and agree that your application will be transferred to such Employer even though its identity is not known to you at the time of applying. Notwithstanding the non-disclosure of identity, the Employer must clearly indicate the nature of the work offered, including in cases where an employee is sought for temporary employment purposes.
4. The Employer, having received your data, further processes it as an independent data controller for the purposes of the selection carried out by it and, at its own responsibility, ensures that your personal data is processed in compliance with applicable personal data protection legal acts. Although the Agreement obliges Employers to use Candidates’ data only for the purposes of the specific selection and employment, we are not liable for the acts or omissions of the Employer in processing your data after its transfer. More information about the processing of your personal data can be found in the Privacy Policy.
Your obligations
1. You may use the Website, Job Advertisements and the application and CV functions only for the purposes of a bona fide job search. Applications must be submitted only in respect of job offers in which you are genuinely interested.

You take the decisions based on this information independently, at your own risk and responsibility.
Ranking of Job Advertisements
1. Job Advertisements are ranked automatically in the search results and lists of the Website. The ranking of search results is based on the following main parameters (in order of importance): (i) the compliance of the Job Advertisement with the search criteria and filters selected by you (keywords, city, field of work, etc.); (ii) the use of the “VIP” service - Job Advertisements for which the Employer has ordered the paid “VIP” service are displayed at the beginning of the relevant list and are clearly marked with the “VIP” label, allowing them to be distinguished from other Job Advertisements; the use of paid services may increase the visibility of a Job Advertisement but does not guarantee a specific position in the list; (iii) the date of activation, extension or payment of the Job Advertisement (depending on which action was performed most recently) - more recent Job Advertisements are displayed higher.

Our role
1. Our role and the limitation of liability are established in sections 3 and 12 of the General Terms. In this section we specify only that which is specific to the operation of the Website.
2. The Website services provided by us are the posting of and searching for Job Advertisements, applying (the transfer of Candidates’ responses to the Employer) through the Website system, the technical means of the CV database, the increasing of the visibility of Job Advertisements and the related functionality.

We do not verify and do not guarantee the identity, qualifications or experience of Candidates, the correctness of the information provided in their CVs or the suitability of Candidates, nor do we guarantee that you will find an employee through the Website. The selection of Candidates, the taking of employment decisions and the conclusion and performance of an employment or other contract with a Candidate are your responsibility – you act independently and at your own risk. The publication of a Job Advertisement on the Website is not our offer and does not constitute a recommendation of you or of the work you offer.
4. Nothing in the Agreement may be construed in such a way as to restrict or limit your rights as a consumer which are granted to you by applicable law.
Job Advertisements
1. Job Advertisements are posted by completing the Job Advertisement form provided on the Website. In addition to the requirements for the Content established in the General Terms and the Community Rules, in the Job Advertisement you must provide objective, correct, accurate and comprehensive information about the Employer and its activities, the position offered, the content of the work, the place of work and the essential working conditions, the requirements applied to Candidates and other information material to the Candidate’s decision.

3. You may publish only one Job Advertisement for one job position (post) offered. It is prohibited to seek employees for two or more different posts in one Job Advertisement. When publishing two or more mutually similar Job Advertisements, it must be clearly apparent from their descriptions how the positions offered differ from one another.
4. If employees for the same position are sought in different cities, publish a separate Job Advertisement for each city, indicating only the city in which the workplace is located.
5. It is prohibited to change the position of the employee sought during the validity of the Job Advertisement. Only such corrections of the title of the position are permitted after which the position of the employee sought does not change in substance. This restriction does not apply to the extension of an expired Job Advertisement (published more than 30 days previously).
6. A Job Advertisement must be assigned to the thematic area (category) corresponding to its content.
7. It is prohibited to write the text of a Job Advertisement solely in capital letters, or to publish meaningless Job Advertisements or Job Advertisements with meaningless sequences of characters or words.
8. Job Advertisements concerning work related to illegal activities or to services of an erotic nature are prohibited, as are Job Advertisements in which the job offer specified does not in fact exist or which are used for purposes other than the search for employees (for example, to advertise business proposals, training, goods or services).
9. By publishing a Job Advertisement, you confirm and warrant that all the information specified therein is correct and comprehensive, complies with the requirements of the Agreement and does not infringe the requirements of legal acts or the rights of persons.
10. When an employee is found or the job offer ceases to be valid, deactivate or remove the Job Advertisement without delay. The deactivation or removal of a Job Advertisement does not create an obligation for us to refund the fee paid.
11. If a job offer is published for temporary employment purposes, in the Job Advertisement you must clearly indicate that an employee is sought for temporary work for the benefit of a user of temporary work, and identify yourself as a temporary employment company included in the VDI list of temporary employment companies. The Anonymous Advertisement function does not eliminate this obligation – the nature of the work offered (temporary employment) must be clear to the Candidate even where your name or the name of the user of the temporary work is not disclosed.
12. Candidates may respond to a Job Advertisement only through the Website – by the Candidate clicking the “Send CV” button located next to the Job Advertisement. Candidates’ responses will be transferred to you in the manner specified on the Website.
13. It is prohibited to indicate in a Job Advertisement any method of applying and communicating other than applying through the Website, as well as to indicate contact details in the text of the Job Advertisement or in other fields not intended for that purpose. A contact e-mail address is indicated only in the field intended for that purpose.
Anonymous Job Advertisements
1. In compliance with the conditions specified on the Website, you may publish a Job Advertisement without disclosing your name or other information directly revealing your identity (hereinafter – an Anonymous Advertisement). In an Anonymous Advertisement you will be marked with a neutral designation (for example, “CVbankas.lt client”).
2. An Anonymous Advertisement does not change your obligations towards us: you must disclose to us your identity and all other information required under the Agreement and must comply with all the requirements applicable to Job Advertisements.
3. The Anonymous Advertisement function may not be used with a view to misleading Candidates as to the nature of the work offered or the activities of the Employer, or to circumventing the equal opportunities and non-discrimination requirements specified in clause 2.6 or other applicable legal acts. We have the right to refuse to provide the Anonymous Advertisement function for a particular Job Advertisement or Employer if we reasonably believe that its use is incompatible with the Agreement or with legal acts.
CV database
1. In accordance with the procedure established on the Website, you may be granted access to the database of curricula vitae (hereinafter – CVs) – a function of the Website enabling you to search for and view, according to search criteria, the CVs of those Candidates who have made their CVs visible to employers. The scope of the CV database and the conditions of access and searching are specified on the Website or in the Order.
2. When using the search criteria of the CV database and selecting Candidates, you must comply with the equal opportunities and non-discrimination requirements specified in clause 2.6. The search criteria may not be used in such a way that Candidates are selected on grounds of sex, age or other discriminatory grounds where there is no objective, lawful and proportionate ground for doing so. You are responsible for the selection criteria chosen and applied.
3. In the event of a breach of the requirements of this section, we have the right immediately to restrict your access to the CV database and to other Website services and to apply other measures provided for in section 11 of the General Terms.

2. In respect of Candidates’ personal data received from the Website, you act as an independent data controller and, at your own responsibility, ensure that this data is processed in compliance with applicable personal data protection legal acts, including the informing of Candidates, ensuring a legal basis, compliance with retention periods and data security measures. We and you are separate, independent data controllers – no relationship of joint data controllers or of data controller and data processor arises between us.
3. You may use Candidates’ personal data received through the Website only for the purposes of a specific selection of employees and only for employment purposes. Upon completion of the specific selection, you must destroy the Candidates’ personal data received through the Website, unless legal acts or a separate agreement with the Candidate provide otherwise.
4. It is prohibited to use Candidates’ data received through the Website and the content of the CV database for advertising, direct marketing, resale, accumulation in databases, export or other purposes unrelated to the specific selection, as well as to transfer them to third parties. The prohibition on transfer does not apply where this is required by legal acts or where a recruitment, employment mediation or temporary employment company transfers the data to the specific client on whose instructions the selection is carried out, in compliance with applicable personal data protection legal acts.
5. You must ensure that every Candidate whose data you receive through the Website is provided with the information specified in Articles 13 and 14 of the GDPR (including information about you as the data controller, the purposes of processing, the legal basis, the retention periods and the Candidate’s rights), and also that a lawful basis for processing under Article 6 of the GDPR (and, where there is data of special categories, also under Article 9 of the GDPR) is established and documented.
6. You must independently receive and examine Candidates’ requests concerning the exercise of data subjects’ rights (access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, the right to object and other rights provided for in Chapter III of the GDPR) in respect of the data processed by you. If such a request is submitted to us by mistake, we have the right to inform the Candidate that, in respect of the specific processing, he or she must apply to you, and to forward the request to you insofar as legal acts permit.
7. Upon becoming aware of a personal data security breach related to Candidates’ data received through the Website, you must immediately take measures to eliminate the consequences of the breach and perform the obligations established in Articles 33 and 34 of the GDPR (notify the supervisory authority and, where applicable, inform the Candidates). If the breach may be related to the operation of the Website or may affect other users of the Website, you must inform us immediately, no later than within 24 hours of becoming aware of it, and cooperate with us and assist us in every way.
Paid services
1. Some of the Website services are provided for a fee (hereinafter – Paid services), including the publication of Job Advertisements and publication plans, access to the CV database, visibility-increasing products (for example, the “VIP” service), additional advertising and other services indicated on the Website as being paid. The current price list of Paid services, the description and scope of each Paid service and the limits of Job Advertisements are provided on the Website and are considered an annex to these Special Terms. We have the right to change the price of Paid services and the procedure for their provision in accordance with the procedure established in the General Terms and in these Special Terms.
2. You may order Paid services by using the functionality of the Website or by concluding a separate order or services contract with us (hereinafter – the Order). The Order is considered an annex to these Special Terms and, where there are contradictions with other documents of the Agreement, it shall take precedence.
3. When choosing a Paid service, you undertake to pay for it in accordance with the procedure specified on the Website. Paid services are provided only after payment, unless we agree otherwise.
4. A Paid service is deemed to have been fully provided when the relevant Job Advertisement, the “VIP” label or access to the CV database becomes active on the Website. Since the Paid service is provided immediately, to the maximum extent permitted by legal acts the monies for the unused period are not refunded, may not be transferred to another service and are not compensated, even if: (i) you find an employee before the paid period expires; (ii) you yourself deactivate or remove the Job Advertisement; (iii) the Job Advertisement, the Account or access to the CV database is restricted or removed due to a breach of the Agreement; (iv) you terminate the Agreement before the expiry of the period of the Paid service.
5. If a Job Advertisement publication plan establishes a limit of Job Advertisements per month or per another reporting period, the unused limit is valid only for that reporting period – it is not renewed, is not carried over to the next period, the monies for it are not refunded and it is not otherwise compensated. The Order may establish a different limit or a different procedure for its application.
6. If under applicable legal acts you are a consumer, when ordering a Paid service and choosing that its provision be commenced immediately, before the expiry of the 14-day period for withdrawal from the contract, you: (i) submit to us an express request to commence the provision of the Paid service before the expiry of the withdrawal period, and (ii) acknowledge that, once we have fully provided the Paid service, you lose the right to withdraw from the contract.
7. Where your ability to use a Paid service is restricted through no fault of your own, we will, at your request, extend its provision for the period of the restriction or will provide an analogous service free of charge.
Ranking and visibility
1. Job Advertisements are ranked automatically in the search results and lists of the Website. The ranking of search results is based on the following main parameters (in order of importance):
  1. the compliance of the Job Advertisement with the search criteria and filters selected by the user (keywords, city, field of work, etc.);
  2. the use of the “VIP” service – Job Advertisements for which the “VIP” service has been ordered are displayed at the beginning of the relevant list and are clearly marked with the “VIP” label, allowing Candidates to distinguish them from other Job Advertisements. The use of paid services may increase visibility but does not guarantee a specific position in the list or a specific number of views or applications;
  3. the date of activation, extension or payment of the Job Advertisement (depending on which action was performed most recently) – more recent Job Advertisements are displayed higher.
2. The provisions of section 10 of the General Terms apply to the transparency of recommender and ranking systems, to the modification thereof and to complaints.
Marketing and commercial communications
1. On the basis of the rights established in section 6 of the General Terms, we have the right to use the information provided by you (including Job Advertisements) in CVbankas.lt advertising and informational material (e.g. on social networks, in the press, on other websites). Such information is used exclusively for the purposes of promoting CVbankas.lt and the job offers published on it.
2. Upon registration of an Employer’s Account, commercial and other offers of ours related to the Website and to other portals and projects operated or administered by us (for example, Autoplius.lt, Aruodas.lt, NTzemelapis.lt, Paslaugos.lt, Kainos.lt, Skelbiu.lt) may be sent to you.

The right of review does not create an obligation for us to check every Job Advertisement and does not release you from liability for the content of the Job Advertisement.
