The Customer shall refrain from any step aimed at having rights in such Content recognised or obtained in its favour, anywhere in the world.

6.2. Licence to FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS Content – For the purpose of benefiting from the access plan subscribed to and within the limits set out in the Contract, the Customer is granted the rights to access and use the FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS Content as well as our CV Database.

6.4. Authorisations granted by the Customer – The Customer grants FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS, for the duration of the Contract, all authorisations necessary for its use of the Services, and in particular the display of its distinctive signs in the spaces provided for that purpose (logos, trade marks, etc.).

6.5. Opt-out from text and data mining – FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS objects to all harvesting and text and data mining operations within the meaning of Article L. 122-5-3 of the French Intellectual Property Code. This objection covers the entire Site and all Content to which it gives access. All harvesting and text and data mining operations targeting the Site and the Content, including by means of automated data collection systems, therefore constitute acts of infringement unless a specific agreement has been formally expressed by us. As Article R. 122-28 of the French Intellectual Property Code provides that the objection referred to in III of Article L. 122-5-3 may be expressed by any means, including through the general terms of use of a website or service, the absence of metadata associated with the Site, the Site's directories or the Site's Content has no bearing on the exercise of the right of objection expressed in these General terms and Conditions of Access and Use. Texts and data downloaded by means of the APIs are subject to the specific terms set out in the dedicated section.

6.6. Confidentiality – Confidential information (hereinafter "Confidential Information") means all information, data or documents that one of the Parties (hereinafter the "Disclosing Party") communicates to the other Party (hereinafter the "Receiving Party"), in whatever form — written, oral, electronic or on any other medium — and in particular: (a) the exchanges between the Customer and FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS, the contents of this Contract and its annexes, and more generally the course of the relationship between the Parties; (b) the Content to which the Customer has access in connection with the Services, including Candidate Content and the information, analyses, studies and data made available by FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS; (c) any information relating to the business, strategy, processes, financial data, clients or staff of the Disclosing Party. By way of exception, information that is freely available to the public at the time of its communication, or that becomes so without any breach of a legal or contractual obligation incumbent on the Receiving Party, and information already known to the Receiving Party — provided it can demonstrate that it obtained access to that information without breaching any such obligations — shall not be considered Confidential Information. FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS may also publish anonymous statistics on the use of its Services and use the Customer's data to improve its Services or develop new ones.

Each Party undertakes not to disclose any Confidential Information to a third party and to use it in accordance with the purpose of the Services. It shall restrict access to its representatives, employees or agents to what is necessary for them to perform the tasks entrusted to them. It shall apply appropriate measures to protect the confidentiality of such information, at a level at least equal to that which it applies to the protection of its own confidential information.

This confidentiality clause shall remain in force for a period of 10 years after the end of the Contract, for whatever reason.

6.7. Commercial references – Unless it expressly objects in writing, the Customer authorises FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS to cite it among its client references, on its website and on other media, including by reproducing its logo. FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS undertakes not to make any use thereof contrary to standard commercial practice.

6.8. Personal data – FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS undertakes to comply with the personal data protection legislation applicable in France, and in particular Regulation (EU) No 2016/679, known as the "General Data Protection Regulation" (hereinafter "GDPR"), and French Act No. 78-17 of 6 January 1978 on Information Technology, Data Files and Civil Liberties. It is the Customer's responsibility to check whether its use of the Services is compatible with any other legislation, and in particular the national legislation of other European Union Member States.

FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS is the controller of the personal data processing relating to the compilation and management of the Databases. It alone determines the means and purposes of that processing and alone assumes compliance with the obligations of transparency, of collecting consent (or offering an opt-out) and of responding to requests to exercise data subject rights. The Customer is informed that the CV Database is compiled on the basis of consent, the limits of which are reflected in our Terms of Use. The Customer acts as an independent controller when it consults the personal data in the Databases.

The Customer acts as controller and FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS as processor for the processing carried out by means of the tools made available by FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS to carry out or facilitate recruitment, and in particular the ATS software. Such processing activities are governed by the Data Processing Agreement set out in the Annex (the "DPA").

It shall notify FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS of any unauthorised access within 24 hours of discovering it, providing, as and when available, the information FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS may request, in particular in order to identify the access and the data exposed, assess the resulting risks and ascertain the remediation measures implemented by the Customer.

12.1. Compatible equipment – The Site is designed to work with the latest versions of the following browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari.

The Services are provided on an "as is" basis, which the Customer expressly accepts.

12.2. Limited CV views – For the purposes of this clause, "viewing a CV" means accessing the content of a CV by clicking on its title, downloading the attachment or hovering over the preview icon. "Viewing a CV" may be carried out, among other ways, from the "CV Database" tab, from the email alert, or from the responses received to a job offer. A "rolling 30-day period" means the last thirty days of use, including the reference day.

Each access plan includes a maximum number of "CV views" per day and per "rolling 30-day period", as specified in the quotation and the order form.

The number of CV views is calculated taking into account CV views by all accounts and sub-accounts.

A number of actual views below the cap gives no right to a refund or to a carry-over to the following period.

12.3. Prohibition of automated means – The Customer shall refrain from using, directly or indirectly, any automated process for accessing or interacting with the Site and its Databases, in particular by means of scripts, bots, scrapers, crawlers or any other tool or program intended to extract, query, copy, collect or interact with the platform's data or features, without the prior written authorisation of FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS. We reserve the right to slow down, restrict or suspend access to the Services if we can reasonably suspect that you are making abusive or fraudulent use of them.

12.4. Restrictions on mailings to Candidates – In order to avoid any SPAM in the context of a mailing sent from the CV Database tab, the Customer undertakes to check that the targeted candidate's profile matches its offer by reviewing the CV in full. If the targeted CV has not been viewed, we reserve the right not to send the mailing. Each candidate targeted by a mailing counts as one full view of their CV.

13. Additional Terms specific to the use of the APIs

13.1. Credits – For each access plan including access to an API, the Customer has a number of credits included, which it spends as it uses the API. Credits not used by the end of the access period give rise to no refund.

13.3. Access to the CV Database – The Customer undertakes to comply with the following terms:

  • the sole purpose of any request made to the API must be the search for candidates for an open position;
  • the Customer is authorised to store the data and process it by means of its own tools designed to facilitate its recruitment, such as its application-tracking software or its matching and scoring tools, under its sole responsibility;
  • unless valid Candidate consent has been obtained independently by the Customer, storage of their data may not go beyond the scope of the recruitment for the position for which that data was obtained. The Customer may therefore not retain it for future recruitment.

14. Additional Terms specific to Recruitment Agency Customers

Annex: Data Processing Agreement ("DPA")

This agreement (the "Agreement") sets out the terms and conditions under which the Customer entrusts FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS, within the framework of the Contract, with carrying out the personal data processing described in its Annex I "Description of the processing”.

This processing is carried out in the name and on behalf of the Customer, which acts as Controller, FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS acting as Processor within the meaning of the GDPR.

The Agreement, including Annexes I and II thereto, forms an integral part of the Contract. The other provisions of the Contract apply to it, including those governing liability and jurisdiction. In the event of any conflict between the Agreement and those provisions, the Agreement prevails.

Definitions and interpretation

The Agreement must be read and interpreted in the light of the provisions of the GDPR. Where terms of the Agreement are defined in the Contract or in the GDPR, they shall have the meaning so given.

The following terms are defined as follows:

  • "Supervisory Authority" means the Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés ("CNIL"), without prejudice to any mandatory provisions liable to confer jurisdiction on another administrative authority.
  • "Description of the processing" means Annex I to the Agreement, describing the personal data processing entrusted under the data processing arrangements governed by this Agreement.
  • "Personal data" means personal data within the meaning of Article 4 of the GDPR.
  • "Applicable Regulations" means any regulations on the protection of Personal data applicable to the processing governed by the Agreement, and by default any regulations in that field applicable to the processing governed by the Contract.
  • "Controller" means the Customer.
  • "GDPR" means Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, together with the implementing standards and recommendations issued by the bodies and institutions of the European Union and by the CNIL, as well as its interpretation in the case law of the Court of Justice and of the French courts.
  • "Processor" means FREE-WORK / AGSI SAS.
  • "Personal data breach" means a breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed.

Description of the processing, duration

The processing governed by the Agreement is defined in Annex I "Description of the processing", as is the retention period for the personal data.

Obligations of the Processor

Instructions

The Processor shall process Personal data only on documented instructions from the Controller, unless required to do so by Union or Member State law to which it is subject. In that case, the Processor shall inform the Controller of that legal requirement before processing, unless the law prohibits it from doing so on important grounds of public interest. The Contract and Annex I to the Agreement "Description of the processing" are deemed to contain the initial instructions.

It is for the Controller to ensure that its instructions comply with the Applicable Regulations on data protection, the Processor bearing no liability in that respect.

Limitation of purposes

The Processor shall process Personal data solely for the specific purpose or purposes of the processing, as defined in Annex I to the Agreement "Description of the processing”.

By way of exception, it is authorised to process personal data on its own behalf in order to improve its Services or develop new ones, including by using the data to train an artificial intelligence system or model or an algorithm. Where possible, it shall implement commercially reasonable measures to anonymise the data.

Security of processing

The Processor shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure the security and confidentiality of Personal data in the light of the resources available to it. In assessing the appropriate level of security, it shall take due account of the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of the processing, as well as the risks to data subjects.

The Processor warrants that it limits access to personal data by its staff to what is necessary for the performance of the Contract and ensures that they are bound by a contractual or statutory obligation of confidentiality.

Compliance

At the Controller's request, the Processor shall provide it with the information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations incumbent on it under the Agreement.

The Controller may carry out, at its own expense, an audit to assess the Processor's compliance with this Agreement, conducted by an independent auditor approved in advance by the Processor. Each audit must be at least twelve months apart from the previous one. In the case of an on-site audit, the Processor shall grant access to its premises between 10:00 and 18:00 on business days. Any audit must be preceded by 30 calendar days' notice, the Processor having 10 days to object to the auditor appointed. The Controller shall send the draft final report and shall have 30 days to submit its observations, which must be incorporated into the final report. The audit must be conducted taking into account the Processor's operational and organisational constraints and ensuring that the resources mobilised and the duration of the audit operations remain reasonable and proportionate.

The Processor shall assist the Controller in fulfilling its obligations regarding impact assessments and consultation of the supervisory authority. Its involvement will be invoiced to the Controller.

It shall also implement the measures necessary to enable the Controller to respond to requests from data subjects to exercise their rights.

Where it becomes aware of a Personal data breach covered by the Agreement, the Processor shall inform the Controller as soon as possible. It shall provide it with the following information, in two communications if necessary:

  • the nature of the Personal data, including, where possible, the categories and approximate number of data subjects concerned by the breach and the categories and approximate number of Personal data records concerned;
  • any measures it has taken or plans to take to address the breach;
  • the relevant information in its possession likely to assist the Controller in assessing the likely consequences of the Personal data breach.

Use of sub-processors

The Processor has general authorisation to engage sub-processors. The sub-processors existing at the time of the Agreement are listed in Annex II to the Agreement.

It shall engage only sub-processors offering sufficient guarantees of compliance with privacy protection Regulations.

The Processor shall specifically inform the Controller in writing of any intended change to this list through the addition or replacement of sub-processors. The Controller has seven (7) days from receipt of that information to object to the new sub-processor. In the event of a reasoned and reasonable objection, the Processor may not proceed with the intended engagement. It is for the Controller to provide an email address for receiving sub-processor updates.

The Processor shall impose by contract on the sub-processor data protection obligations equivalent to those imposed on the Processor by the Agreement.

International transfers

The Processor may transfer Personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), provided it implements the measures necessary to ensure that the transfer does not result in a breach of Chapter V of the GDPR.

Suspension, End of the Agreement

In the event of a breach by the Processor of the obligations incumbent on it under the Agreement or under privacy protection Regulations, the Controller may instruct the Processor to suspend the processing of Personal data until the Processor complies with the Agreement or the Contract is terminated in accordance with the applicable provisions.

Following the end of the Agreement, for whatever reason, the Processor shall, at the Controller's option, delete all Personal data processed on the Controller's behalf. On request, it shall also provide the Controller with a copy of that data. This service will be invoiced by the Processor to the Controller.

Governing law, Disputes and Competent supervisory authority

The Agreement is fully subject to the provisions of the Contract relating to governing law, disputes and competent courts.

Save where mandatory provisions provide otherwise, the Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés has sole jurisdiction over the processing governed by the Agreement, including in the event of transfers of Personal data outside France.
