Please review the following rules and restrictions that govern your use of our website, products, and services (the “Services“). If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about these terms or the Services, please reach out to us at jovy@gitroll.io.

Terms

How do the Services work?

GitRoll offers an integrated online platform that serves as a tool by screening users‘ GitHub profiles to provide a comprehensive coding profile. By using Gitroll‘s services, you acknowledge and consent to the sharing of your User Submissions, including your GitRoll profile, with the companies associated with GitRoll.

This sharing allows the Companies to contact you and evaluate whether you would be a good fit for their organizations. If you choose to opt in but later decide not to share your GitRoll profile with Companies, you can select available for Jobs on your profile.

It is important to note that GitRoll is not obligated to share your User Submissions with Companies and cannot guarantee that you will be contacted or hired. The decision to contact you or extend a job offer is solely at the discretion of the Companies.

Will these Terms ever change?

As we continually strive to enhance our Services, updates to these Terms may be necessary to align with the evolving nature of GitRoll. We retain the right to modify these Terms at any time. In the event of changes, we will notify you through notices on the GitRoll website, via email, or through other appropriate channels.

Should you disagree with the updated Terms, you have the option to reject them. However, opting out means you will no longer have access to GitRoll‘s Services. If you continue to use any of the Services following the effective date of the amended Terms, it signifies your agreement to accept these changes.

Except for modifications made by us as outlined here, no other alterations or amendments to these Terms will be valid unless documented in writing and mutually signed by both you and GitRoll.

What about my privacy?

The Children‘s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) requires that online service providers obtain parental consent before they knowingly collect personally identifiable information online from children who are under 13. We do not knowingly collect or solicit personally identifiable information from children under 13; if you are a child under 13, please do not attempt to register for the Services or send any personal information about yourself to us. If we learn we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that a child under 13 may have provided us personal information, please contact us at jovy@gitroll.io.
