Terms of use

You need to be at least 16, and old enough to work or hire where you are. Keep your account to yourself: one person per account, with true information, and a password nobody else knows. You’re responsible for what happens in your account.

• Only add credentials you actually hold, with details that are true. Never upload someone else’s card or a fake one.
• Credentials you add yourself are shown to employers as self-reported. “Verified” means we checked a photo of the card against what you entered; it isn’t a background check or a guarantee.
• When you apply, the employer sees what the privacy policy describes. What happens next is between you and the employer.
• TradeConnect is free for workers, with no fees to search or apply.

• Post only real jobs you’re hiring for, under your own company’s name.
• Keep requirements and pay accurate. Pay you enter is shown to workers as stated by you.
• Never charge applicants a fee, ask them for payment or bank details, or use a post to sell them something. Follow employment and anti-discrimination laws in your ads and your hiring.
• Use applicants’ information only to consider them for the job they applied to, and don’t share or sell it.
• You decide whom to hire. Check credentials yourself before someone starts, especially self-reported ones.
• Posting a job is free today. If that ever changes, we’ll tell you before it affects you.

Many listings come from public job sources such as Adzuna and USAJOBS. We show them as they come, label where each pay figure came from, and close ones that disappear from their source, but we can’t promise they’re current or accurate. Applying on another site happens under that site’s rules.

• Fake, misleading or scam listings, and fake or borrowed credentials.
• Spam, harassment, or contacting people for anything other than a job.
• Copying the site’s data in bulk, scraping it, or using it to build another service.
• Trying to get into accounts or data that aren’t yours, or interfering with how the site works.

We can remove listings or credentials, or close accounts, that break these rules, and we’ll say why when we can.

TradeConnect is a place to find and post jobs. It isn’t an employer, a staffing agency or a party to any job. We don’t guarantee that you’ll find work or fill a job, that any listing or applicant is what it says, or that the site will always be available or error free. The site is provided as is.

To the extent the law allows, TradeConnect isn’t liable for indirect or consequential losses from using the site, or for what employers, workers or other sites do. Nothing here limits rights that the law doesn’t let us limit.

You can delete your account at any time from your account page. We can suspend or close accounts that break these terms.

These terms are governed by the laws of Minnesota. If we change them, we’ll update the date at the top, and we’ll email you about changes that affect what you can do or what it costs. Using the site after a change means you accept it.
