Disclaimer of Warranties

As a User of the Services, whether as a Website Visitor, job seeker, employer, or any other type of User, you understand and acknowledge that any use of the Website and/or the Services or reliance on the Materials is at your sole risk.

The Website and the Services are provided on an “as is” basis for informational purposes and for the convenience of Users posting job opportunities and/or seeking employment.

The Company expressly disclaims any and all representations and warranties, including without limitation any implied warranties and conditions, as to the completeness, legality, reliability, operability, availability, merchantability, quality, and/or fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement condition of the Materials and Services.

The Credit Union Careers Website and Services are provided as a venue, among other things, for job seekers and employers to share information about job opportunities and job qualifications. The Company does not screen or censor the postings by any Users or Third Parties as part of its regular business practices.

Therefore, by using the Services you assume all risks associated with coming into contact with or communicating with other Users, including but not limited to risk of physical harm of dealing with strangers, foreign nationals, underage persons, people acting under false pretenses, or anyone else you may encounter as a result of using the Services.

As User authentication via automated website services is challenging and uncertain, and because the Company does not vet each User for validity, the Company cannot, and does not, guarantee the authenticity of Users and their communications. No part of the Services includes implied, intended or actual involvement in User-to-User dealings now or in the future. In the event that you have a dispute with one or more Users, you release the Company and it agents, partners, affiliates, employees, and associated third parties with the Services from all claims, demands and damages of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with User-to-User disputes.

Except as captured in other legal arrangements related to the Services that are separate from these Terms and Conditions, the provision of the Services to Users does not constitute a legal or commercial relationship of any type, be it lawyer-client, advisory, fiduciary, or other relationship.

Moreover, while various industry standard precautions are taken to ensure the security and availability of the Services, the Company does not warrant that the Website will operate continuously at all times without interruptions to the Services, nor that the Website and Services will operate error-free, virus free, or free from other harmful mechanisms, be they trojans, worms, or other malicious software.

Any Materials available on the Website or through the Services that relate to legal matters as regards to employment or any other matter, including any material provided by Third Parties, is not intended to be legal advice of any kind. Nor is the information about persons, companies or other entities warranted to be accurate or up to date. No one should act, or refrain from acting, based solely upon this or other information on the Website without first seeking appropriate legal or other professional advice.

The Services are intended only for Users who reside or are otherwise offering or seeking employment in Canada. Some provinces and other Canadian jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the exclusions may not apply to you. Likewise, it is also possible that you may have other rights with regards to your use of the services that vary from province to province and from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding possible differences in law as indicated above, as a corporation operating from the province of Saskatchewan, the Company maintains the validity of these Terms and Conditions within the laws of all jurisdictions in Canada and Saskatchewan.
