3. Prohibited Uses

Client agrees that it shall not use any Subscription to knowingly upload, post, email, transmit, store, distribute or otherwise make available: (a) any content, or engage in any behavior, action, or conduct, that is unlawful, harmful, untrue, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortious, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libelous, fraudulent, deceptive, illegal, invasive of another’s privacy, hateful, racist, or otherwise objectionable; (b) any unsolicited or unauthorized messaging (as further set forth in Section 8 below); (c) any Client Data, or otherwise provide material support or resources (or to conceal or disguise the nature, location, source, or ownership of material support or resources), to any person(s) or organization(s) designated by the United States government as a foreign terrorist pursuant to section 219 of the Immigration and Nationality Act or otherwise in violation of any U.S. export control restrictions; (d) a time bomb, worm, virus, malware, ransomware, lock, drop-dead device, or other similar component of software or electronically stored information that is intended in any manner to: (1) damage, destroy, alter, or adversely affect the operation of the Subscription or any software, hardware, or a service in connection with which the Subscription is used; or (2) reveal, damage, or alter any Client Data, or any other software, hardware, or information of or relating to another person or entity; or (e) any incorrect or misleading Client Data.


4. Limitations

Except as otherwise set forth on the applicable Order Form and/or Statement of Work, Client understands and acknowledges that Visibility may establish, as described in its user, technical or other similar documentation, general practices and limits concerning Client’s conduct, use of the Client Data, use or access to the Subscription (or part thereof), including without limitation: (i) the maximum number of days that Client Data will be actively retained by or made available via the Subscription; (ii) the maximum number of uploads, posts, or transmissions that may be sent from or received by Client (or its Users) via the Subscription; (iii) the maximum size of any Client Data, individually or collectively, that may be sent from or received by Client (or its Users) via the Subscription; (iv) the maximum storage space that will be allotted to Client, (v) the length of time before an inactive User is automatically logged off of the subscription; and (vi) the maximum number of times (and the maximum duration for which) Client or its Users may access the Subscription in a given period of time. Visibility shall provide Client with commercially reasonable notice (which for purposes of this Limitation Section may include notice by update to the applicable publicly available Visibility documentation in accordance with the Agreement) of any such new practices or limits pursuant to the terms thereof. If Client provides Visibility with written notice of any objection to any such practice or limit within fifteen (15) days of Client’s receipt thereof, such practice or limit will not be effective until Client and Visibility have reached an agreement with respect to such change, practice, or limit. In the event an agreement cannot be reached within sixty (60) days from Client’s objection to such notice regarding the new practice or limit, such new practice or limit will not be effective as to Client for the remainder of the Subscription Period, provided that Visibility may terminate the Agreement for convenience upon thirty (30) days written notice to Client.


5. Named Users

Client shall ensure that only named Users access or use the Subscription and that each named User is a unique person. Use of a non-Visibility intermediate user interface, portal, or page to aggregate data, information, or actions from multiple individuals or users into the Programs will be deemed separate named Users under this Agreement. Further, sharing of usernames and/or passwords for access to the Subscription is prohibited and Client shall be responsible for its Users misuse of any usernames or passwords to access the Subscription.


6. Consents & Authorizations

Client understands, acknowledges and agrees that: (i) Visibility is not a covered entity or a business associate for purposes of the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and the regulations promulgated thereunder (“HIPAA”); (ii) Visibility does not act as Client’s agent; (iii) Client shall not, and shall ensure each User does not, use the Subscription to submit, upload, process or store any health-related information, as the basis for any health-related decisions, or in connection with performing any health care related functions or activities requiring the disclosure, processing or storing of any health-related information; and (iv) Client is solely responsible for determining the form of and providing or obtaining any notices, consents and/or authorizations, if any, required by any applicable laws or regulations associated with the use or disclosure of any Client Data. Client understands that the technical processing and transmission of the Subscription, including its account information, Client Data, may involve: (a) transmissions over various networks, including the transfer of this information to the United States and/or other countries for storage, processing, and use by Visibility, its affiliates, and their agents; (b) changes to conform and adapt to technical requirements of connecting networks or devices; and (c) other transmission or tracking requirements (including use of cookies consistent with the limitations described in the Talent Platform Security Policy). Accordingly, Client agrees to permit such parties to make such transmissions and changes, and Client agrees to obtain the necessary consent from its Users for the same, and further obtain all rights necessary to share, provide access to, and permit use of Client Data by Visibility, its Users, and Visibility’s agents who access the Subscription or Client Data in accordance with the then current Data Security & Privacy Statement.


7. Professional Services

Forms provided to Visibility by Client for onboarding development must be in MS Word format. Additional professional services charges will apply if forms are provided to Visibility in other formats. Such additional professional services must be authorized by Client, in writing, via a new Order Form prior to the commencement of such professional services. No data feed services are included by default; all feeds must be outlined as additional professional services.


8. E-Mail Message Compliance

Client shall comply with the following when sending e-mail messages through the Subscription: (i) use only permission-based marketing e-mail message lists (i.e., lists in which each recipient has expressly granted permission to receive e-mail messages from Client by affirmatively opting-in to receiving those e-mail messages); (ii) always include a working “unsubscribe” mechanism in each marketing e-mail message that allows the recipient to opt-out from an e-mail mailing list except as otherwise required or set forth by applicable law; (iii) comply with all requests from recipients to be removed from email mailing lists within ten (10) days of receipt of the request or the appropriate deadline under applicable law; (iv) maintain, publish, and comply with a privacy policy that meets all applicable legal requirements, whether or not Client controls the sending of the e-mail message; and (v) include in each e-mail message: (a) a link to a then-current privacy policy applicable to that e-mail message, and (b) a valid physical mailing address or a link to that information. While using the Subscription, Client shall not: (1) send e-mail messages to addresses obtained from purchased or rented digital message lists; (2) use third party message addresses, domain names, or mail servers without proper permission; (3) routinely send e-mail messages to non-specific addresses (e.g., webmaster@domain.com or info@domain.com); (4) send e-mail messages that result in an unreasonable number of spam or similar complaints (even if the e-mail messages themselves are not actually spam); (5) disguise the origin, or subject matter of, any e-mail message or falsify or manipulate the originating message address, subject line, header, or transmission path information for any e-mail message; (6) send offers for the purpose of obtaining personal information or generating leads for third parties; (7) send “chain letters,” “pyramid schemes,” or other types of messages that encourage the recipient to forward the content to strangers; (8) send to lists of addresses that are programmatically generated or scraped from the internet; (9) employ sending practices, or have overall message delivery rates, which negatively impact or has adverse effects on the Subscription; or (10) import, or incorporate into, any contact lists or any other similar lists that you may upload to the Subscription, any of the following information: social security numbers, national insurance number, credit card data, passwords, security credentials, bank account numbers, or sensitive personal, health, or financial information of any kind.

Client acknowledges and understands that other terms, conditions, and policies may apply to its use of Communication Products as further detailed in Section 9 (Phone Number Providers) below.


9. Phone Number Providers (if applicable)

Some Communication Services may enable Client to send messages through a phone number and/or short code using SMS and other methods. Visibility engages third-party vendors to provide the phone number(s) and short code(s) that Client uses to communicate through the applicable Communication Service.

Client understands, acknowledges and agrees that its use of phone number(s) and/or short code(s) within the Subscription must conform and comply with the guidelines set forth in the CTIA (Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association), the CWTA (Canadian Wireless Trade Association), the ETNO (European Telecommunications Network Operators’ Association, and the GSMA (Global System Mobile Association), as applicable.

In the event Client chooses to subscribe to a Communication Service, Client acknowledges and agrees that Client is solely responsible for complying with all terms, conditions, guidelines and policies listed above, as applicable.


10. Data Import/Export

Client Data associated to legacy data migration and systems integration must be provided by Client (or Client authorized third party) to Visibility in Microsoft Excel Format.

In the event Client requests Visibility to conduct a Client Data update to Client’s Subscription by use of the Excel Import Tool, Client shall pre-screen such Client Data to ensure its accuracy, integrity, completeness, and quality prior to making the Client Data available to Visibility. Client acknowledges that Visibility can only conduct a full system restoration (at its then current fees) based on the most recent data backup prior to the modification or deletion of the Client Data. Any actions taken, including additional job, candidate, or hiring manager profiles created after the data backup, will be lost. Client Data loss or corruption must be reported to Visibility within seven (7) days; failure to do so may prevent Visibility from fully restoring Client’s Subscription to an uncorrupted state.

Client understands, acknowledges, and agrees that use of unsecure FTP channels reduces the security measures in place to protect the Client Data being transferred. As such, if Client chooses to use unsecure FTP channels to transfer Client Data to or from Visibility, Client shall add PGP encryption to all Client Data prior to transferring such Client Data via an unsecure FTP channel.

Client understands, acknowledges, and agrees that Client’s use of unsecure FTP channels or other third-party providers (e.g., GoogleDrive, Box, or any other similar service) to transfer, import or export Client Data to or from Visibility will be at Client’s own risk, and Client further acknowledges and agrees that Visibility shall have no liability of any kind whatsoever arising out of or in connection with Client’s use of the foregoing.
