Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using PartTimeOK ("the Site", "we", "us", "our"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Site.

These Terms apply to all visitors, job seekers, and employers who access or use the Site in any way.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years of age to use this Site. By using the Site, you represent and warrant that you are 18 years of age or older. If you are under 18, you are not permitted to use the Site and must exit immediately.

Employers posting jobs must be authorized to hire on behalf of the organization they represent and must be hiring for positions based in the United States.

3. What We Are

PartTimeOK is a part-time job listing platform that:

• Aggregates job listings automatically from third-party ATS platforms and job data providers
• Allows employers to post part-time job listings directly on the Site

We are not a recruiter, staffing agency, or employer. We do not participate in any hiring decision, interview process, or employment relationship between employers and job seekers.

4. Aggregated Third-Party Listings

A portion of listings on the Site are sourced automatically from third-party ATS platforms and job data providers. Regarding these listings:

• We do not own, create, or verify the accuracy of third-party listings
• Listings may be expired, duplicated, or contain errors
• The original employer is solely responsible for the content of their listing
• Clicking "Apply" on a third-party listing redirects you to the employer's own website or ATS platform — we are not responsible for any content, practices, or processes on those external sites
• We make reasonable efforts to keep listings current but cannot guarantee real-time accuracy
• Third-party listing data is sourced under the respective terms of each provider; we comply with all applicable attribution requirements

5. Employer Accounts

6. Job Listing Requirements

By submitting any job listing — free or paid — you represent, warrant, and agree that:

• You are authorized to post the role on behalf of the hiring organization
• The listing describes a genuine, currently available part-time position
• The position is based in the United States
• The listing is accurate, complete, and not misleading
• The listing complies with all applicable federal, state, and local employment laws, including but not limited to anti-discrimination laws (Title VII, ADA, ADEA, and equivalents)
• The listing complies with applicable pay transparency laws in the employer's jurisdiction, including states such as California, Colorado, New York, and Washington where salary range disclosure is required — compliance is solely the employer's responsibility
• The listing does not contain discriminatory language based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other protected characteristic

7. Listing Tiers and Pricing

8. Payments

All payments are processed securely by Stripe. By completing a purchase you authorize us to charge your payment method for the amount displayed at checkout.

• All transactions are in US dollars (USD)
• You agree to keep your billing information current and accurate
• Sales tax will be applied where required by applicable law
• You consent to receiving electronic receipts and invoices to the email address on your account
• We do not store your full payment card details — all payment data is handled by Stripe in accordance with their terms and PCI-DSS standards

9. Refund Policy

Refunds are available under the following condition only:

• You request a refund within 24 hours of completing payment, AND
• Your listing has not yet been reviewed or published live on the Site

To request a refund under this policy, contact us at [email protected] within 24 hours of purchase with your order details.

No refunds are issued once a listing is live on the Site, except in the following circumstances:

• We remove your listing in error (our mistake, not a policy violation)
• A technical error on our platform resulted in a duplicate charge

Listings removed for violating Section 6 (prohibited listings) are not eligible for refunds under any circumstances.

For auto-renewed listings, refunds are not available for renewal charges if cancellation was not completed before the renewal date. It is your responsibility to manage auto-renewal settings.

10. Listing Moderation

We reserve the right to review, edit, delay publication of, or remove any listing at our sole discretion, including listings that:

• Violate Section 6 of these Terms
• Are reported by users as fraudulent, misleading, or inappropriate
• Are determined by us to be harmful to job seekers or the integrity of the Site

We are not obligated to provide advance notice before removing a listing that violates these Terms. Removal of a violating listing does not entitle the employer to a refund.

11. Reporting Suspicious Listings

If you encounter a listing you believe is fraudulent, misleading, or in violation of these Terms, please report it to [email protected]. We review all reports and will remove confirmed violating listings promptly.

Warning signs of a fraudulent listing: requests for payment to apply, requests for bank account or Social Security information, promises of unusually high pay for minimal work, or vague descriptions with no identifiable employer.

12. No Employment Relationship

Use of the Site does not guarantee employment. Nothing on the Site constitutes an offer of employment. PartTimeOK is not involved in the hiring process and is not responsible for any employment decisions made by employers or any outcomes experienced by job seekers as a result of using the Site.

13. Email Communications

14. Intellectual Property

15. Prohibited Conduct

You agree not to:

19. Third-Party Links and Services

The Site links to external employer websites, ATS platforms, and other third-party services. We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, availability, or reliability of any third-party website or service. Accessing third-party links is at your own risk.

Our payment processing is handled by Stripe. Your use of Stripe's services is subject to Stripe's own Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

Our collection, use, and protection of personal data is described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into and forms part of these Terms. By using the Site you agree to our Privacy Policy.

21. Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. When we make material changes we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. For significant changes we will make reasonable efforts to notify active employer accounts via email.

Your continued use of the Site after updated Terms are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

22. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Site at any time, with or without notice, for conduct that we determine violates these Terms or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties.

Upon termination:

• Active paid listings will be removed from the Site
• No refunds will be issued for remaining listing time, except where termination was made in error on our part
• Provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including Sections 14, 16, 17, and 18

23. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles.

Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the Site shall first be attempted to be resolved informally by contacting us at [email protected]. If informal resolution is not achieved within 30 days, disputes shall be resolved through binding arbitration in New York in accordance with the American Arbitration Association rules, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for intellectual property violations.

You waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration.
