Terms
These terms are an agreement between you and Cubelet Ltd (“we”), and apply when you place an ad in mooncrier, buy an extra, or read and reply to ads. mooncrier is published by Cubelet Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (no. 14071971). Registered office: 2 Frederick Street, Kings Cross, London WC1X 0ND, United Kingdom.
Who can use it
Anyone can read the paper. To place an ad for a business or buy an extra you must be 18 or over and able to act for the business; to place an ad looking for work you must be 16 or over.
Placing an ad
- A standard ad is free. You must be offering a real job, or be a person looking for work, and you must be able to make the ad.
- Follow the law where the job is. That includes the laws against discrimination in hiring: in the UK the Equality Act 2010; in Ireland the Employment Equality Acts (which also cover family status, civil status and membership of the Traveller community); in the US federal, state and local equal employment laws; in Canada the human rights codes; in Australia federal and state anti-discrimination law and the Fair Work Act; in New Zealand the Human Rights Act 1993. So an ad must not turn people away for their age, sex, race, religion, disability or similar, unless the law allows it for that job. Where the law asks for the pay to be shown or given to applicants, as several US states and cities, some Canadian provinces and the European Union’s pay transparency rules do, show it. What an ad says is the advertiser’s responsibility.
- Ads must be honest. They must never ask job seekers for money, fees or bank details; must say so if pay is by commission only; and must not hide contact details in the wording. Replies go through a private box, a link or a phone number you choose to print.
- You let us print your ad, set it in type to fit the paper (which may shorten or reword it), show it on our pages, in employers’ widgets, in emails and in search engines’ job listings, and keep a copy as a record. You must have the right to any logo or photo you add.
- Our editor may hold an ad for a look, decline it or remove it if it breaks these terms or readers report a real problem. We tell you when we do, and why, and a person will look again if you ask.
- Our editor sometimes gives an ad more space or an extra at no cost. You can always say no.
Paid extras
- Extras (a bigger size, colours, a logo, placements, extra weeks) are priced before you pay, in your country’s currency, including any tax we must charge where you are, and start with the next edition after payment. You ask us to start straight away.
- If we can’t print an extra you paid for, we refund it.
- If you’re a consumer in the UK or Ireland, you can cancel within 14 days of paying; you pay for what has already printed. In Australia and New Zealand, the consumer guarantees of the Australian Consumer Law and the Consumer Guarantees Act apply and can’t be excluded.
Trust seals
- Verified employer starts with a review fee. It pays for checking your work email, your website and, where you give one, your company register entry, by our agent and by a person whenever the agent isn’t sure. The fee is not refunded if we can’t verify your business, because the work has been done. You agree to this, and to the review starting straight away, when you pay. If you pass, the seal shows on all your ads for a year.
- Phone verified is paid for each number and confirmed with a code by text. The seal shows on an ad that prints a verified number, for a year.
- We may look again at a seal at any time and remove it if it no longer holds, telling you why.
Replies and hiring
We forward replies to private boxes and show phone numbers on request. Hiring is between the advertiser and the applicant: we don’t employ anyone through the paper, we don’t charge job seekers to apply, and we aren’t responsible for an advertiser’s offer. Never pay anyone to get a job. Report an ad that asks you to.
Job posts we find
We republish public job posts as free ads, in our own short wording, with a link to the original. The business can claim the ad to change it, or remove it, at any time. If you own the copyright in something we published and want it taken down, write to the contact address on our About page saying what it is and where it appears, and we’ll remove it promptly.
Using the paper
Don’t copy the paper in bulk, harvest contact details from it, send unwanted messages through private boxes, or use it to harass anyone. We may block anyone who does.
The rest
- We work hard to keep the paper accurate and running, but we can’t promise it will always be available or error-free. As far as the law allows, we aren’t liable for indirect losses, and our liability to you is limited to what you paid us in the last twelve months. Nothing here limits liability that the law doesn’t allow us to limit.
- We may change these terms; the date at the bottom shows when they last changed. Changes don’t apply to extras you’ve already paid for.
- These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. If you’re a consumer elsewhere, you keep the protections of the law where you live, and you can bring a claim in your own courts.
