1. Who we are

The operator of this website and the provider of the services described in these terms is:

2. What these terms cover

These terms of business govern:

- the use of this website,

- the basic rules of cooperation with companies that order recruitment services from us,

- the basic rules of cooperation with job seekers who send us their CV or respond to our job postings.

Specific cooperation with a company is always governed by a separate contract or a confirmed order. Where a contract differs from these terms, the contract prevails.

3. Our services

For companies:

- sourcing, pre-screening and introducing candidates to fill a position at your company — the client becomes the direct employer,

- temporary assignment of employees — the employment relationship remains with us, the employee works under your direction,

- building and running IT teams and related consulting services.

For job seekers:

- placement in projects and job positions,

- support throughout the hiring process — feedback, interview preparation, communication with the employer.

4. How we work

Our process for filling a position is defined in writing and is the same for every assignment:

4.1 Agreeing the brief. Before we start searching, we confirm the role, seniority, must-have skills, budget and timeline with the client. This prevents misunderstandings later in the process.

4.2 Candidate verification. Before introducing a candidate to a client, we verify their stated qualifications, check references and assess their fit against the client's requirement.

4.3 Post-placement check-in. For every placement we follow up with both sides — the client and the candidate — typically two weeks and three months after the start date, so that any issues are caught early.

4.4 Measuring quality. We track indicators such as time to fill, retention of placed candidates after three and six months, client satisfaction and candidate satisfaction — including candidates who were not hired. We use these findings to improve the process.

5. Terms for job seekers

5.1 Our services are free of charge for you. We do not request or collect any fee from you for employment placement or for temporary assignment. We are paid solely by the company we are recruiting for. This is required by law and it is a matter of course for us — if anyone claiming to act on our behalf asks you for payment, please let us know at talent@syncular.io.

5.2 We never send your CV anywhere without your consent. We introduce you to a specific employer only once you have given us your consent — you always know who we are sending your profile to and for which position.

5.3 What you can expect from us: feedback on your application, accurate information about the position and the conditions as provided to us by the employer, and confidential treatment of your data.

5.4 What we expect from you: accurate and complete information in your CV and during the hiring process. If your situation changes — you find a job elsewhere or lose interest in the position — please let us know.

5.5 If we place you in employment for a fee, we will enter into a written employment placement agreement with you, as required by law. This agreement does not involve any fee for you.

5.6 We cannot guarantee that we will find you a position or that you will be hired — the final decision always rests with the employer.

6. Terms for companies

6.1 Order and contract. Cooperation begins when a contract is signed or when we confirm your order in writing. The order sets out the description of the position, the requirements, the place of work, the expected start date and the price.

6.2 Fee. For employment placement, the fee is usually a percentage of the annual gross salary for the position being filled, or a fixed amount. It becomes due on the candidate's start date. For temporary assignment, we invoice monthly based on an approved timesheet. Specific rates and payment terms are agreed in the contract.

6.3 Guarantee. If a placement we made ends within the agreed guarantee period, we will offer you either a free replacement candidate or a proportionate refund of the fee. The conditions and scope of the guarantee form part of the contract. The guarantee does not apply where the employment ended for reasons on your side.

6.4 Introduced candidates. You may hire a candidate we have introduced to you on the basis of our contract. If you enter into an employment or comparable relationship with such a candidate without paying our fee — including through an affiliated company or another agency — we are entitled to the agreed fee in full. This restriction applies for the period agreed in the contract and does not apply to temporary agency workers assigned to you — we place no restriction whatsoever on their moving into permanent employment with you.

6.5 Temporary assignment. In a temporary assignment we are the employer and we meet all wage, tax and social security obligations. As the user employer, you are responsible in particular for:

- ensuring working and pay conditions at least as favourable as those of your comparable employee,

- health and safety at the workplace,

- observing the statutory limits on the duration of the assignment — we will cooperate with each other on this.

An assigned employee may not be passed on to a third party.

6.6 Candidate data. You may use the candidate data we provide solely to fill the specific position. You may add a candidate to your own database only with that candidate's consent.

7. Equal opportunity

We have a written equal opportunity and anti-discrimination policy. In employment placement and in our own hiring, we do not discriminate on the basis of race, colour, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, religion or belief, national origin, disability, marital or family status, pregnancy or military service.

We will not accept a client brief that would require such discrimination. If you encounter discriminatory conduct during a hiring process, write to us at talent@syncular.io — we will look into it and treat your report confidentially.

8. Responsible business

- Towards candidates and employees: we respect the rights of our own employees, of the candidates we place, and of the freelancers and subcontractors we work with. We do not tolerate forced labour, child labour or any form of exploitation, and we expect the same standard from every partner.

- Towards partners: we expect fair working conditions, timely payment and compliance with Slovak labour law from our subcontractors and partner agencies.

- Towards the environment: as an office-based company our direct environmental footprint is modest. We focus where it matters — retired IT equipment is disposed of through a certified e-waste recycler after the data has been securely wiped, we limit paper use, and we support remote and hybrid work.

12. Liability

12.1 We are liable for damage caused by a breach of our obligations. The scope and any limitation of liability towards corporate clients is set out in the contract.

12.2 We are not liable for an employer's decision whether to hire a candidate, for information that a candidate or client knowingly withheld or misrepresented, or for indirect damage or loss of profit.

12.3 We are not liable for a failure to perform caused by circumstances we could neither influence nor foresee.

13. Governing law and disputes

These terms and the relationships they govern are subject to the laws of the Slovak Republic. We will seek to resolve any dispute by agreement; failing that, the competent court of the Slovak Republic will decide.

So that we can place you in a suitable position or project and run the hiring process with you

For the duration of the hiring process and for 12 months after it ends. If you have consented to being added to our database for future opportunities, we retain your data for a maximum of 3 years. You may withdraw your consent at any time 

We do not send your data to a client without your consent. We introduce you to a specific employer only once you have given us your consent — you always know who and for which position.

Your consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR when submitting the form; your consent for non-essential cookies

4. Information classification and protection

We classify information into four levels — public, internal, confidential and regulated — and each level has its own rules for storage, transmission, access and disposal. Candidate CVs, contact details and salary information fall under confidential or regulated information: they are stored encrypted in access-controlled systems, transmitted encrypted and never over public Wi-Fi, made available only to people who need them for their work, and disposed of by secure erasure or shredding.

5. Who we share your data with

- Clients, i.e. prospective employers — candidate data only after the candidate has consented to being introduced to that specific client.

- IT and cloud service providers who operate our recruitment and e-mail systems.

- Our payroll and accounting provider.

- External collaborators and providers of marketing, commercial, consulting and recruitment services, where they are involved in a specific process.

- Public authorities, where required by law — in particular the Central Office of Labour, Social Affairs and Family, the Social Insurance Agency, health insurance companies and the tax authority.

We have data processing agreements under Art. 28 GDPR in place with our processors. We do not sell your data and we do not provide it for third-party marketing purposes.

The client we introduce you to becomes a separate controller of your data and processes it under its own policies. We require them to use it solely to fill the specific position.

6. Where we process your data

We process your personal data within the European Union / European Economic Area. No transfer to third countries takes place.

7. Your rights

In relation to your personal data you have the right:

- to rectification — to have inaccurate data corrected or incomplete data completed,

- to request deletion where the data is no longer needed or where you have withdrawn consent,

- to restriction of processing in the cases set out in Art. 18 GDPR,

- to data portability — to receive your data in a structured, commonly used format,

-to object to processing based on legitimate interest,

- to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

Simply write to us at talent@syncular.io. We will respond within one month at the latest; in complex or repeated cases we may extend this period by up to two further months and will inform you within one month.

If you are not satisfied with how we handle your request, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office for Personal Data Protection of the Slovak Republic, Hraničná 12, 820 07 Bratislava 27, www.dataprotection.gov.sk.

8. Cookies

On this website we use:

- Essential cookies — needed for the site to function. These do not require consent.

- Analytics cookies — these help us understand how the site is used. We use them only with your consent.

You can change or withdraw your consent to non-essential cookies at any time in the cookie settings on this site, and you can also delete cookies in your browser settings.

9. Automated decision-making

We do not use automated individual decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significantly affects you when selecting candidates. A person always decides whether a candidate moves to the next stage.

10. Security

We have written internal security policies covering information and IT security, data protection, information classification, physical access control to our premises, data retention and disposal, and response to security incidents.

In practice this means encryption of data in transit and at rest, access on a need-to-know and least-privilege basis, multi-factor authentication where available, regular backups, protection against malicious code, prompt revocation of access when someone leaves, and security training for our staff.

We have an incident response procedure in place with a designated team and defined phases — from detection and assessment through containment to recovery and post-incident review.

Should a personal data breach occur that poses a risk to your rights, we will report it to the Office for Personal Data Protection of the Slovak Republic within 72 hours of becoming aware of it, and where the risk is high we will also inform you without undue delay.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy. The current version is always available on this page with its effective date. We will inform you of any material change.
