Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("you", "your", or "User") and Sellframe Ltd ("we", "us", "our", or the "Company"), a company registered in Scotland, United Kingdom (company number SC472357), governing your access to and use of the 4dayweek.io website and all related services (collectively, the "Service").

By accessing, browsing, or using the Service in any way, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Service.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you by email or through a prominent notice on the Service. Your continued use of the Service after any such modifications constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.

2. About the Service

4dayweek.io is an online job board operated by Sellframe Ltd (SC472357), registered in Scotland, United Kingdom. The Service connects professionals with companies offering reduced work schedules, including but not limited to four-day work weeks, nine-day fortnights, compressed schedules, flexible hours, and other progressive working arrangements.

The Service provides the following features:

• Job search and browsing with advanced filtering by schedule type, location, category, and more
• Company profiles detailing work-life balance policies, benefits, and open positions
• Job application submission, either directly through the platform or via external application links
• Employer dashboard for posting jobs, managing applications, and company profile management
• Paid products for job seekers, including the Pro subscription, auto-apply credit packs, AI headshot generation, and resume review tools (see Section 8 for details)
• Saved jobs, application tracking, and personalised recommendations for job seekers
• Editorial content including articles, guides, and resources related to reduced-hours work

3. Eligibility

To use the Service, you must meet the following requirements:

• You must be at least 16 years of age. If you are under 18, you confirm that you have obtained the consent of a parent or legal guardian to use the Service.
• You must provide accurate, truthful, and current information when creating an account or submitting any data through the Service. You agree to update your information promptly if it changes.
• You may maintain only one personal account. Creating multiple accounts for the same individual is prohibited and may result in suspension or termination of all associated accounts.
• If you are registering an account on behalf of a company or organisation (an "Employer Account"), you represent and warrant that you are duly authorised to bind that entity to these Terms, and that the entity agrees to be bound by these Terms.

4. Account Security

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your account credentials. This includes your password, any authentication tokens, and any activity that occurs under your account.

When creating a password for your account, you must meet the following minimum requirements:

• At least 8 characters in length
• At least one uppercase letter
• At least one lowercase letter
• At least one number

You must not share your account credentials with any third party. If you become aware of or reasonably suspect any unauthorised access to or use of your account, you must notify us immediately at [email protected]. We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with these account security obligations.

5. User Types

The Service supports two primary categories of users, each with distinct features, responsibilities, and obligations.

Job Seekers

As a job seeker, you may create and maintain a personal profile, search and browse job listings, save jobs for later review, and submit applications to positions listed on the Service. You may also receive personalised job recommendations based on your profile and activity.

You have control over the visibility of your profile. You may set your profile to be visible to employers, visible only to employers actively searching for candidates, or completely private. By making your profile visible, you consent to employers viewing the information contained therein.

When submitting applications, you represent that all information provided is accurate and truthful. You understand that misrepresentation may result in the withdrawal of any offer made on the basis of your application, and may lead to the suspension or termination of your account.

Employers

As an employer, you may create and manage a company profile, post job listings, review and manage applications received through the Service, and access analytics relating to your listings and company profile.

We may require domain verification or other forms of identity confirmation to ensure that employer accounts are associated with legitimate organisations. You agree to co-operate with any such verification requests promptly.

As an employer using the Service, you are solely responsible for ensuring that your job postings and hiring practices comply with all applicable employment laws, anti-discrimination legislation, data protection regulations, and any other relevant legal requirements in the jurisdictions where you operate and where your listed positions are based. The Service does not provide legal advice, and your use of the platform does not constitute compliance with any legal obligation.

6. Content Standards

All content submitted to the Service must meet the following standards. These apply to all users, with additional obligations for employers as noted below.

Employer Content Obligations

Employers posting job listings on the Service must ensure that:

• All job postings represent genuine positions that offer a reduced-hours or flexible working arrangement as described in the listing.
• Job descriptions are accurate, complete, and not misleading regarding the role, responsibilities, required qualifications, location, working arrangements, and any other material terms.
• Salary and compensation information, where provided, is truthful and reflects the actual compensation offered for the position.
• Company profile information, including descriptions of work-life balance policies, benefits, and schedule types, is current and accurate.

Prohibited Content

The following types of content are strictly prohibited on the Service:

• Fraudulent, fictitious, or misleading job postings, including positions that do not genuinely exist or that materially misrepresent the terms of employment.
• Content that is discriminatory on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, religion, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.
• Content that promotes, facilitates, or relates to illegal activities in any jurisdiction.
• Listings for multi-level marketing (MLM), network marketing, pyramid schemes, or similar business models.
• Spam, unsolicited commercial messages, or bulk communications not related to legitimate job opportunities.
• Keyword stuffing, hidden text, or other manipulative techniques designed to artificially influence search results or rankings within the Service.
• Content that infringes upon the intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or other legal rights of any third party.
• Content that contains malware, viruses, or any other harmful code or technology.

Content Moderation

We reserve the right, but are not obligated, to review, edit, refuse, or remove any content submitted to the Service at our sole discretion, without prior notice. This includes the right to decline publication of job postings that do not meet our content standards, remove listings that are reported or identified as problematic, and edit content for clarity, accuracy, or compliance with these Terms. Repeated or serious violations may result in immediate suspension or permanent termination of your account.

Job Data Accuracy

7. Applications and Data Sharing

When you submit a job application through the Service, the information you provide (including your name, email address, cover letter, and any uploaded documents such as your CV or resume) will be shared with the employer associated with that job listing. Employers can view application details on-platform through their dashboard and will also receive email notifications containing application information. Uploaded resumes and documents are shared with employers via email attachments and are not available for download through the employer dashboard.

Once your application data has been shared with an employer, the employer becomes an independent data controller in respect of that data. This means the employer is independently responsible for how they use, store, and process your personal data after receiving it. We are not responsible for and have no control over the data handling practices of employers after your application data has been shared with them.

Employers who receive application data through the Service agree to handle all applicant personal data in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including (where applicable) the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Applications remain accessible to employers for the duration specified in our Privacy Policy retention schedule, even after the associated job listing has expired or been archived. This ensures employers can complete their recruitment processes for previously active positions.

For full details on how we collect, use, store, and share your personal data, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

8. Billing and Payments

Core features of the Service are available free of charge. We also offer paid products for job seekers who want additional tools. Prices are displayed in US dollars on our pricing page; your local currency is shown at checkout via Stripe Adaptive Pricing.

8.1. Paid products

• Pro subscription — recurring access to early-access job listings, hidden jobs, personalised AI-matched job alerts, and 10% off one-time products. Billed monthly ($15/month) or quarterly ($35/quarter).
• Auto-apply credit packs — pay-per-use credits that let our server-side bot submit applications on your behalf. Three volume tiers (20 credits for $29, 50 for $49, 100 for $89). Credits do not expire.
• AI headshot pack — a one-time $29 purchase delivering 25 AI-generated professional headshots.
• Resume review unlock — a one-time $29 purchase unlocking the full AI-generated recommendations on a single resume review.

8.2. Payment processing

All payments are processed by Stripe, Inc. ("Stripe"). By completing a purchase, you agree to Stripe's terms of service and consent to the transfer of your payment information to Stripe in the United States. We do not receive or store your full card number; card data is handled exclusively by Stripe within its PCI-DSS compliant environment. Stripe Tax calculates applicable sales tax or VAT at checkout based on your location.

8.3. Consent to immediate supply of digital content

The Service delivers digital content (access to paid features, AI-generated headshots and reviews, auto-apply submissions) immediately after purchase. By confirming a purchase at checkout, you expressly consent to immediate performance of the digital content and acknowledge that, under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, you therefore lose your statutory 14-day cancellation right once the digital content begins to be supplied. In place of that statutory right, we offer the voluntary refund terms described in Section 8.5 below, which are at least as generous.

8.4. Auto-renewal, cancellation, and introductory offers

Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period (monthly or quarterly) until cancelled. You can cancel at any time through the Stripe Customer Portal, accessible from your account's billing dashboard. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you retain access to paid features until that date. No partial refunds for unused portions of a billing period (except under Section 8.5).

If you accept an introductory offer — for example, $7.50 (50% off) for the first month of Pro monthly — your subscription will automatically renew at the standard price ($15/month) starting from the second billing period. We display the standard renewal price and the date of the first standard-price charge prominently on the pricing page, at checkout, and in your welcome email. You may cancel before the first standard-price charge to avoid it.

If an invoice fails to clear, Stripe's Smart Retries will attempt the charge for up to 21 days. Your access to paid features remains active during this grace period. If the charge ultimately fails, we will cancel the subscription and access will end. We will email you when a charge fails; you can update your payment method in the Stripe Customer Portal at any time.

8.5. Refunds

Our refund policy varies by product type:

• Pro subscription — full refund within 14 days of the first paid charge on the subscription, no questions asked. After 14 days, refunds are at our discretion. Request a refund by emailing our support address in Section 18.
• Auto-apply credit packs — full refund if no credits have been consumed. If some credits have been consumed, refund is pro-rated based on the unused portion (remaining credits divided by purchased credits, multiplied by the purchase price). Fully consumed credit packs are non-refundable.
• AI headshot pack— full refund if you're not happy with your headshots. No questions asked. If you don't end up with a profile-worthy headshot you love, email [email protected] within 30 days of delivery and we'll refund you in full. If generation fails for reasons on our side, we will also regenerate your photos at no additional cost. AI processing costs are real — we absorb them when the result isn't good enough.
• Resume review unlock — non-refundable once the full review has been revealed to you.

We reserve the right to issue discretionary refunds outside this policy in exceptional circumstances (for example, technical failures attributable to us). All refunds are processed back to the original payment method via Stripe and typically clear within 5–10 business days.

8.6. Auto-apply usage

Use of the auto-apply feature is additionally governed by our Acceptable Use Policy. The auto-apply button is shown only on jobs we can actually submit applications to — you will never spend a credit on a job we cannot support. We reserve the right to revoke credits and restrict access to the auto-apply feature for violations of the Acceptable Use Policy, which will be logged in our audit trail.

8.7. Disputes and chargebacks

If you believe a charge was made in error, please contact us before initiating a chargeback with your card issuer — we can typically resolve disputes within one business day. We treat filed chargebacks as a contractual breach and reserve the right to suspend associated accounts and revoke any entitlements granted by the disputed purchase pending resolution.

8.8. Price changes

We may change prices for new purchases at any time. If we change the price of a recurring subscription, existing subscribers will be notified at least 30 days before the new price takes effect on their next renewal, and may cancel before that renewal to avoid the new price.

9. Intellectual Property

Our Property

The Service, including its name, logo, visual design, user interface, underlying source code, software, databases, and all other proprietary materials, is owned by or licensed to Sellframe Ltd and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws of the United Kingdom and international jurisdictions. All rights not expressly granted in these Terms are reserved.

Your Content

You retain ownership of all content that you submit, upload, or otherwise provide to the Service ("User Content"), including job applications, profile information, company descriptions, and job listings. By submitting User Content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable, sub-licensable licence to use, display, reproduce, distribute, modify, and process your User Content as reasonably necessary to operate, maintain, and improve the Service, and to provide the features you have requested (for example, displaying your job listing to job seekers, or sharing your application with an employer).

This licence terminates when you delete your User Content from the Service or close your account, except where your content has been shared with third parties (such as employers who have received your application) or is reasonably required for legal compliance, backup, or archival purposes as described in our Privacy Policy.

AI-Generated Headshots

AI headshots generated from your selfies ("Generated Headshots") are yours to use. Subject to you complying with these Terms, you are granted a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use Generated Headshots for any lawful purpose, including professional profile photos on LinkedIn, your resume, company bio pages, speaker profiles, personal websites, and other commercial and non-commercial uses.

We do not use your selfies or Generated Headshots to train our base models, to improve other users' outputs, or for any research, marketing, or advertising purpose. Your selfies are used only to train a private model for your generation pack and are deleted on the retention schedule described in our Privacy Policy. You must not use Generated Headshots to impersonate another person, to misrepresent your identity on government or regulated identification documents, or in a manner that is unlawful, defamatory, or violates the rights of any third party.

Third-Party Content

The Service contains content provided by third parties, including employer-submitted job postings, company profiles, and content sourced from external career pages. Such third-party content is the responsibility of the party that provided it. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any third-party content, and we are not liable for any errors or omissions therein.

10. Prohibited Uses

You agree not to engage in any of the following prohibited activities in connection with the Service:

• Scraping, crawling, harvesting, or using any automated means to access, collect, or extract data from the Service without our prior written permission. This includes the use of bots, spiders, scrapers, or similar technologies.
• Attempting to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Service, other user accounts, computer systems, or networks connected to the Service, whether through hacking, password mining, or any other means.
• Circumventing, disabling, or otherwise interfering with any security-related features of the Service, including features that prevent or restrict use or copying of content, or that enforce limitations on the use of the Service.
• Sending unsolicited messages, spam, or bulk communications to other users of the Service, including unsolicited job offers, recruitment messages, or commercial solicitations.
• Creating fake, fraudulent, or misleading accounts, profiles, or identities, including the use of false names, credentials, or company affiliations.

• Using the Service for any purpose that is unlawful, fraudulent, or harmful, or in connection with any unlawful, fraudulent, or harmful activity.
• Reverse engineering, decompiling, disassembling, or otherwise attempting to derive the source code of any software used in the provision of the Service, except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law.
• Using the Service in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair the Service or interfere with any other party's use and enjoyment of the Service.

11. Third-Party Links and External Sites

The Service may contain links to external websites, including employer career pages, external application URLs, company websites, and other third-party resources. These links are provided for your convenience and informational purposes only. We do not control, endorse, or assume responsibility for the content, privacy policies, practices, or availability of any third-party websites or resources.

When you follow a link from the Service to an external website (including when clicking "Apply" on a job listing that directs you to an employer's external application page), you leave the Service and are subject to the terms and privacy policies of that external site. We are not responsible for any loss, damage, or harm arising from your use of or reliance on any external website or resource accessed through the Service.

Your interactions with any third-party website, including the submission of personal information or applications through external career pages, are solely between you and that third party.

12. Service Availability

We strive to ensure the Service is available and functioning at all times. However, we do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free from viruses or other harmful components. Access to the Service may be temporarily suspended or restricted without notice for reasons including, but not limited to:

• Scheduled or emergency maintenance and updates
• System upgrades, security patches, or infrastructure changes
• Responding to security incidents or potential threats
• Circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including internet disruptions or force majeure events

We will make reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of planned maintenance where practicable. We shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or inconvenience caused by the temporary unavailability of the Service for any reason.

13. Limitation of Liability

The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Without limiting the foregoing, we make no representations or warranties that:

• The Service will result in any particular employment outcome, including job placement, hiring, or candidate quality.
• Job postings are accurate, complete, or current beyond the extent of our standard content moderation processes.
• Any company listed on the Service genuinely offers the working arrangements described in their profile or job listings.
• The Service will be compatible with all devices, browsers, or operating systems.

We are not a party to any employment relationship, contract, or agreement between job seekers and employers. The Service is a platform that facilitates connections; any hiring decisions, employment terms, or working arrangements are solely between the employer and the job seeker.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the total aggregate liability of Sellframe Ltd and its directors, officers, employees, and agents arising out of or in connection with your use of the Service shall not exceed the total amounts paid by you to us in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Sellframe Ltd be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, business opportunities, goodwill, or anticipated savings, whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or any other legal theory, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Sellframe Ltd and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and suppliers from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) arising out of or in connection with:

• Your use or misuse of the Service
• Any content you submit, post, or transmit through the Service
• Your violation of these Terms or any applicable law, regulation, or third-party rights
• Any infringement or alleged infringement of any intellectual property, privacy, or other rights of any third party resulting from your use of the Service or your User Content
• Any dispute between you and a third party (including employers and job seekers) arising from your use of the Service

This indemnification obligation shall survive the termination or expiration of these Terms and your use of the Service. We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, at your expense.

15. Termination

Termination by You

You may close your account at any time by using the account deletion feature in your dashboard settings or by contacting us at [email protected]. Upon account closure, your profile and associated data will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Termination by Us

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, in whole or in part, without prior notice if you violate these Terms or engage in conduct that we reasonably determine to be harmful to the Service, other users, or our legitimate business interests. In the case of serious or repeated violations, termination may be immediate and permanent.

We may also terminate inactive accounts that have not been accessed for a period of two (2) years or more. In such cases, we will provide at least 30 days' notice to the email address associated with the account before termination.

Effects of Termination

• Your personal data will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy, including applicable retention periods and deletion procedures.
• If you hold an active paid subscription at the time of termination, refunds (if any) are governed by Section 8.5. Termination for breach of these Terms does not entitle you to a refund of the remaining portion of your current billing period.
• Auto-apply credit balances at the time of termination are forfeited unless the termination is initiated by us without cause, in which case remaining unused credits will be refunded pro-rata under Section 8.5.
• Applications previously submitted through the Service may be retained by employers in accordance with our data retention policies and applicable law.
• Any provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination shall continue in full force and effect, including but not limited to intellectual property provisions, limitation of liability, indemnification, and dispute resolution.

16. Dispute Resolution

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them, their subject matter, or their formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Scotland. The courts of Scotland shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any such dispute or claim.

The foregoing is without prejudice to any mandatory consumer protection provisions in the country of your habitual residence that may apply and cannot be excluded by agreement. If you are a consumer, nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights or your right to bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence.

Before initiating any formal legal proceedings, we encourage you to contact us first to attempt to resolve the matter informally. We will endeavour to respond to and address any dispute or complaint within 30 days of receipt. You may contact us at [email protected] or through our Contact page.

17. General Provisions

Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Sellframe Ltd with respect to the use of the Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, proposals, and agreements, whether electronic, oral, or written, between you and us with respect to the Service.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal, and enforceable, or if modification is not possible, severed from these Terms. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

Waiver

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by an authorised representative of Sellframe Ltd.

Assignment

We may assign or transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms, in whole or in part, to any third party at any time without notice or your consent, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate restructuring, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent.

Force Majeure

We shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing our obligations under these Terms where such failure or delay results from any cause that is beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, epidemics or pandemics, strikes, power outages, internet disruptions, or telecommunications failures.
