Note: This English translation was created with the assistance of artificial intelligence. In case of discrepancies or interpretation issues, the original German version of these General Terms and Conditions shall prevail.
a. These general terms and conditions (“GTC”) apply to all subscriptions, services, and other performances (“Services”) provided by Graubünden Job Match, c/o GastroGraubünden, Loëstrasse 161, CH-7000 Chur, (“Provider”) to the customer (“Customer”), in particular in the app and the web app “graubuenden job match” (collectively referred to as the “App”) and on the website graubuenden.jobs.
b. The currently valid price and conditions sheet as well as the overview of offers can be accessed at graubuenden-job-match.
c. In the App, the Customer may purchase certain Services in connection with the facilitation of contacts for the initiation of employment relationships. The Provider acts solely as an intermediary and is not responsible for the successful conclusion, the content, or any other aspect of a potential employment relationship.
d. General terms and conditions of the Customer, in particular general purchasing conditions, shall not apply, even if the Provider does not expressly object to them. Such terms shall only apply if the parties have concluded a deviating written agreement in an individual case.
e. The Provider reserves the right to amend these GTC. In the event of an amendment, the Provider shall send the Customer the new version at least 14 days before it comes into effect, indicating that objections must be raised within 14 days; otherwise, the new GTC will come into force at the time specified in the notification.
f. If the Customer does not object within the period or accepts the amendment of the GTC, the new GTC shall automatically apply. If the Customer objects, the contract shall automatically terminate at the date specified in the notification.
2. Conclusion of Contract
a. The Services and price information offered by the Provider constitute an invitation to the Customer to submit a binding offer to purchase the Services to the Provider (“Offer”). Customer offers are binding for 14 (fourteen) days, unless otherwise agreed.
b. The Provider is free to accept or reject the Customer’s Offer in whole or in part without giving reasons.
c. The Customer’s Offer is accepted by the Provider (i) by granting the Customer access to the App or (ii) by explicitly declaring acceptance of the Offer. In any case, the Provider will send a confirmation of the contract conclusion (“Confirmation”) to the email address provided by the Customer.
d. Upon acceptance as defined above, the contract for the Services between the Customer and the Provider (“Subscription”) comes into effect.
e. Illustrations, performance descriptions, and public statements (e.g., on the website or in marketing materials) do not form part of the contract unless they are explicitly designated as binding. This applies in particular to statements regarding posted jobs or placement rates.
3. Contract Duration and Termination
a. Subscriptions are concluded – unless otherwise agreed – for a minimum contract period of one year (12 months).
b. The Customer and the Provider may ordinarily terminate the Subscription (the contract) by giving one month’s notice to the end of the respective minimum contract period. If the agreed minimum contract period is one month, a notice period of seven days shall apply.
c. If no or no timely termination is declared, the contract is automatically extended by the agreed minimum contract period.
d. Termination for good cause remains unaffected. Good cause exists in particular if the Customer is in qualified default of payment, violates the granted usage right or the Fair Use Policy in accordance with Section 6, or fails to fulfill cooperation obligations despite being requested to do so by the Provider.
4. Prices and Payment
a. All prices are quoted in CHF exclusive of VAT, unless otherwise indicated.
b. Fees for the Provider’s Services are due for payment at the start of the Subscription. After the Customer’s registration, the Provider will issue an invoice for the subscription costs, which must be paid within 20 days.
