Terms of Use

Updated 15th June 2023

1. Introduction

1.1

Welcome to Onboarded, an online onboarding tool specially built to streamline how employers onboard new talent by allowing them to invite applicants to commence and complete an onboarding process and monitor the progress of each applicant (“the Services”).

1.2

Please read these Terms carefully before you start to use the Services, as they will apply and be binding to you from the time Onboarded first provides you with access to the Services. If you do not agree to these Terms, you cannot use the Services.

1.5

Onboarded does not provide any professional advice, including legal or accounting advice. We may provide you with information we think might be helpful in running a business, but this should not be seen as a substitute for professional advice, and we aren’t liable for your use of the information in that way.

1.6

If we update these Terms, we will give you 30 days’ notice before any changes come into effect unless we need to make immediate changes for reasons we do not have control over.
