These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the Data Centre Recruit website (the "Site"), operated by Data Centre Recruit ("we", "us", "our"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

Data Centre Recruit is a specialist recruitment agency and employment business operating within the United Kingdom, providing specialist recruitment services to employers and candidates within the data centre and critical infrastructure sectors. Our recruitment services are provided in accordance with applicable UK employment and recruitment legislation.

2. Definitions

• "Candidate" or "Work-Seeker" means any individual who registers with, applies through, or is introduced by Data Centre Recruit for the purposes of employment or engagement.
• "Client" means any organisation that engages Data Centre Recruit to source candidates for permanent, contract, or temporary roles.
• "Services" means the recruitment, staffing, and related services provided by Data Centre Recruit.
• "Vacancy" means any role, position, or assignment advertised or notified by a Client.

3. Use of the Site

You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes. You must not:

• Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information (including CVs, qualifications, or work history)
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Site or its systems
• Use automated tools (bots, scrapers) to extract data from the Site without permission
• Reproduce, copy, or exploit any part of the Site for commercial purposes without our written consent
• Upload content that is unlawful, defamatory, or infringes the rights of any third party

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to the Site for any user who breaches these Terms.

We reserve the right to remove, edit or refuse to publish any vacancy, CV, profile or other content submitted through the Site at our sole discretion.

4. Our Services

Data Centre Recruit provides recruitment services connecting Clients with Candidates across the data centre and critical infrastructure sector, including permanent, contract, and executive search placements.

Vacancies listed on the Site may be withdrawn, amended or filled at any time without notice.

Specific terms governing the recruitment relationship are set out separately in our:

• Client Terms of Business (for organisations engaging our services to source candidates)
• Candidate Terms of Business (for individuals registering with us for employment opportunities)

These separate terms take precedence over this Site-wide policy in the event of any conflict regarding the recruitment relationship itself.

5. Registration and Accounts

Where the Site allows registration (e.g. candidate profile creation, CV submission), you agree to:

• Provide accurate, current, and complete information
• Keep your login credentials confidential
• Notify us promptly of any unauthorised use of your account

We reserve the right to refuse registration or remove any account at our discretion, including where information provided is found to be inaccurate or misleading.

6. Candidate Submissions

By submitting a CV, application, or profile information, you confirm that:

• The information provided is accurate and not misleading
• You have the right to work in the location(s) you are applying for, or will confirm this if requested
• You consent to your information being shared with relevant Clients for the purpose of considering you for suitable vacancies

Registration with Data Centre Recruit does not create any contract of employment between the Candidate and Data Centre Recruit, and we do not guarantee that submitting a CV or registering will result in an interview, introduction, or offer of employment.

Candidates are responsible for verifying their own visa/right-to-work status, qualifications, licences and professional registrations before accepting any offer of employment.

7. Client Vacancy Submissions

By submitting a vacancy to Data Centre Recruit, Clients confirm that:

• The vacancy is genuine and they have the authority to recruit for the role
• Information provided about the role, salary, and requirements is accurate
• They will notify us promptly if a vacancy is filled, withdrawn, or amended

Clients remain solely responsible for interviewing candidates, checking references, verifying right-to-work status and qualifications, and carrying out DBS or other background checks where applicable.

Fee structures, payment terms, and rebate/replacement provisions are governed by our separate Client Terms of Business, agreed prior to any introduction of candidates.

8. Intellectual Property

All content on the Site — including text, graphics, logos, and the Data Centre Recruit name and branding — is owned by or licensed to Data Centre Recruit and protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

Information submitted through the Site may be treated as confidential where appropriate, subject to our Privacy Policy and our recruitment obligations to third parties.

10. Third-Party Links

The Site may contain links to third-party websites (e.g. client career pages, job boards). We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or privacy practices of third-party sites, and linking does not imply endorsement. Accessing third-party websites is entirely at your own risk.

• The Site will be uninterrupted or error-free
• Any vacancy, candidate profile, or information listed is current or complete

We do not independently verify every statement made by Candidates or Clients, and we accept no responsibility for decisions made by any party in reliance on information supplied by a Candidate or Client, including hiring decisions made by employers or employment decisions made by candidates.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Data Centre Recruit shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from use of the Site, including loss of profits, business, or opportunity, nor for any failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including internet or system outages, cyber attacks, acts of God, strikes, or governmental action.
