The Platform may contain links to third-party websites or integrate third-party services. JobCast does not control and is not responsible for these external sites or services. Accessing third-party resources is at your own risk and subject to their terms and privacy policies.

15. Disclaimer of Warranties

JobCast provides the Platform on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, whether express, implied, or statutory, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and uninterrupted availability. We do not warrant that job postings, profiles, or other content are complete, accurate, or current.

16. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, JobCast and its directors, employees, and partners shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost data, business interruption, or reputational harm arising from your use of (or inability to use) the Platform, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

18. Modifications to Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. Material updates will be communicated via the Platform or by email to registered users. Continued use of the Platform after the effective date of an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you object to the changes, you must stop using the Platform and, if applicable, close your account.

19. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate access to the Platform at any time, with or without notice, if you breach these Terms, participate in fraudulent or unlawful activity, or if we reasonably believe your actions may harm other users. Upon termination your right to use the Platform ceases immediately, but clauses that by their nature should survive will remain in effect.

20. Dispute Resolution

We encourage informal dispute resolution by contacting support@jobcast.pro within 30 days of the issue. If not resolved, disputes shall proceed to mediation in Multan, Pakistan. If mediation fails, the dispute will be finally resolved through binding arbitration under the Arbitration Act 1940 (Pakistan). Parties retain the right to seek injunctive relief for unauthorised use of intellectual property or confidential information.

21. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of Pakistan. Subject to the dispute resolution clause, courts located in Multan, Pakistan shall have exclusive jurisdiction over matters arising from or relating to these Terms.

22. International Users & Consumer Rights

JobCast primarily serves users in Pakistan but may be accessed globally. Where local consumer or employment laws grant additional rights, those rights take precedence over conflicting provisions in these Terms. Users located in the European Union, United Kingdom, or other jurisdictions with mandatory consumer protections retain the right to bring claims in their home country courts where required by law.
