Terms of Use

The rules of the road. Short, and in plain English.

Last updated 2 September 2026.

Effective 2 September 2026.

These Terms of Service govern your use of Herald. By using Herald or submitting information through the service, you agree to these Terms.

1. Who we are

Herald is a service operated by:

ARB RECRUITMENT - NYC, LLC
201 West 72nd Street, Apt. 18-G
New York, NY 10023
United States

Email [email protected], phone 914-600-5488.

Herald helps candidates identify and connect with employers or recruiters concerning employment opportunities.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to use Herald. By using Herald, you represent that you meet this requirement and that the information you provide is your own or that you are otherwise legally authorized to provide it.

3. What Herald does

Herald provides information concerning employment opportunities and helps connect candidates with employers and recruiters. Herald may use information you submit to identify opportunities matching preferences such as:

  • field;
  • specialty;
  • state or location;
  • work type;
  • experience;
  • availability; and
  • other employment preferences.

Submitting information through Herald does not create an employment relationship between you and Herald.

4. What Herald does not guarantee

Herald does not guarantee:

  • employment;
  • an interview;
  • an offer;
  • a particular salary;
  • that an employer will contact you;
  • that a vacancy will remain available;
  • that an employer will select you;
  • the duration of a hiring process; or
  • any particular hiring outcome.

Employment decisions are made by the relevant employer. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, Herald does not employ candidates listed or referred through the service and does not set an employer’s compensation, benefits, working hours, workplace rules, or other employment conditions.

5. Job briefs and employer information

Herald takes reasonable steps to review organizations submitting job briefs and to confirm that positions were represented to Herald as legitimate and open at the time of review. However, job availability and employer information can change.

Herald cannot guarantee that:

  • every position will remain available;
  • every employer or recruiter will continue to satisfy Herald’s review criteria;
  • information supplied by an employer will remain current after Herald reviews it; or
  • an employer will act consistently with every representation made to Herald.

Job briefs generally display compensation information supplied by the employer and may display the date on which Herald most recently reviewed or confirmed the listing.

Candidates should independently evaluate an employer before providing sensitive information, accepting employment, or entering into any financial arrangement.

6. Candidate information and employer contact

When you submit information to Herald and request employment matching, Herald may provide relevant information to employers or recruiters associated with opportunities matching the preferences you selected. Participating employers and recruiters may then contact you regarding those opportunities.

Where Herald has entered into contractual restrictions with participating employers or recruiters, those restrictions may prohibit recipients from:

  • selling or improperly redisclosing candidate information;
  • contacting candidates for unrelated marketing;
  • using information outside legitimate recruitment or employment purposes; or
  • otherwise misusing candidate information.

Employers and recruiters are independent organizations. Herald cannot guarantee that every third party will comply with its legal or contractual obligations.

If you believe an employer or recruiter obtained your information through Herald and has misused it, contact [email protected].

7. Communications

When you provide contact information and request matching, Herald may use that information to provide the requested service and facilitate communications relating to employment opportunities. Additional consent will be obtained where applicable law requires specific consent for particular automated, prerecorded, artificial-voice, marketing, or text-message communications. You may withdraw optional communications consent where applicable. Employers and recruiters are independently responsible for complying with laws governing their communications with candidates.

8. Candidate information must be accurate

You agree to provide information that is reasonably accurate and not intentionally misleading. You must not:

  • submit another person’s personal information without authorization;
  • impersonate another person;
  • knowingly submit false candidate information;
  • use Herald for fraudulent purposes; or
  • interfere with the operation or security of the service.

9. Prohibited uses

You may not:

  • scrape, harvest, or systematically extract content from Herald without authorization;
  • use automated systems to interfere with the service;
  • attempt to gain unauthorized access to Herald systems;
  • use candidate, employer, or recruiter information for unsolicited advertising or unrelated marketing;
  • submit malicious code;
  • misuse the service for fraud or deceptive conduct;
  • violate another person’s privacy or intellectual-property rights; or
  • use Herald in violation of applicable law.

10. Candidate fees and payment safety

Herald is free for candidates seeking employment opportunities through the service. Herald does not require candidates to:

  • pay a joining fee;
  • make a deposit;
  • transfer money;
  • “top up” an account;
  • advance funds;
  • pay to unlock an employment opportunity; or
  • pay money before receiving access to a job opportunity through Herald.

Herald does not require your bank-account details or Social Security number merely to match you with employment opportunities. A legitimate employer may request tax, identity, payroll, banking, or other onboarding information after progressing through a genuine hiring process. Before providing highly sensitive information, you should independently verify the employer, the recipient, and the reason the information is being requested.

If anyone claims to represent Herald and asks you to send money, purchase cryptocurrency or gift cards, pay a release fee, deposit funds, or transfer money in connection with obtaining a job through Herald, stop communicating with that person and report the incident to [email protected].

11. Employers and recruiters are independent parties

Employers and recruiters who use information obtained through Herald are independent parties and are not Herald’s employees, agents, or representatives merely because they use the service. Herald does not control their:

  • hiring decisions;
  • employment practices;
  • interviews;
  • workplace conduct;
  • payroll administration;
  • employment agreements; or
  • communications after introduction.

Nothing in these Terms excuses Herald from responsibility that applicable law does not permit Herald to exclude.

12. Privacy

Herald’s collection, use, disclosure, and retention of personal information is described in the Herald Privacy Notice. The Privacy Notice forms an important part of your relationship with Herald but does not reduce any privacy rights that cannot legally be waived. Where applicable law provides you with privacy rights, those rights remain subject to the applicable statute regardless of these Terms.

13. Third-party websites and services

Herald may link to third-party websites or services. Those services are controlled by third parties and may have their own terms, privacy notices, and security practices. Herald is not responsible for third-party websites or services solely because Herald links to them. You should review the applicable third-party terms and privacy notices before submitting information.

14. Availability of the service

We may modify, suspend, update, or discontinue features of Herald from time to time. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. Where reasonably practicable, we will avoid changes that materially interfere with rights already granted to candidates.

15. Intellectual property

The Herald website, branding, design, text, software, and other materials owned by Herald or its licensors are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. You may use the website for its intended personal job-search purpose. You may not reproduce, commercially exploit, scrape, republish, or distribute Herald content except as permitted by law or with written authorization.

16. Disclaimer

Herald provides a matching and informational service. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Herald does not warrant that every job listing, employer statement, recruiter communication, or third-party representation will remain accurate, complete, current, or available. Nothing in this section excludes any warranty, responsibility, or remedy that cannot legally be excluded.

17. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Herald and ARB RECRUITMENT - NYC, LLC will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, or consequential damages arising from or related to use of the service, including lost earnings, lost opportunities, or similar economic losses. This limitation does not apply where liability cannot lawfully be limited or excluded. Nothing in these Terms limits liability or remedies to the extent such limitation is prohibited by applicable law.

18. Changes to these Terms

Herald may update these Terms when necessary to reflect changes to the service, law, security requirements, or business operations. When we update the Terms, we will change the Last updated date above. If a change materially affects existing users’ legal rights and applicable law requires additional notice or consent, Herald will provide that notice or obtain that consent. Changes will not retroactively eliminate rights that have already accrued where applicable law prohibits doing so.

19. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to any rights that cannot legally be waived, disputes relating to these Terms or Herald will be brought in an appropriate state or federal court located in New York County, New York, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

Nothing in this provision:

  • waives a consumer protection or privacy right that cannot legally be waived;
  • prevents a government regulator from exercising lawful authority;
  • limits a remedy required by applicable law; or
  • overrides mandatory law applicable in your state of residence.

20. Severability

If a provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect to the extent permitted by law. An unenforceable provision will be interpreted or limited only to the extent necessary to make it lawful and enforceable where permitted.

21. Entire agreement

These Terms, together with the Herald Privacy Notice and any additional terms presented to you for a specific service, constitute the agreement governing your use of Herald. They do not waive rights that cannot legally be waived.
