Terms and Conditions

Contract terms for our recruiting services

1. Scope of Application

These Terms and Conditions apply to all contracts between HireDACH (hereinafter "Contractor") and the Client for recruitment and HR services. Deviating conditions of the Client will not be recognized unless the Contractor expressly agrees to their validity in writing.

2.1 Recruitment

The Contractor places suitable candidates with the Client for open positions. Placement is based on a requirements profile created by the Client and confirmed by the Contractor.

  • Onboarding and offboarding support
  • Employer branding and job postings
  • HR consulting and process optimization

2.3 30-Day Guarantee

The Contractor guarantees the presentation of qualified candidates within 30 days of order placement. If no suitable candidate can be presented within this period, the service fee will be waived.

3. Compensation and Payment Terms

Compensation depends on the agreed package:

  • Starter: One-time service fee upon successful placement
  • Growth: Monthly fee plus success-based component
  • Enterprise: Individual agreement

3.2 Due Date

Invoices are payable within 14 days of invoice date without deduction. For success-based compensation, the invoice is issued after the placed candidate signs the employment contract.

In the event of late payment, the Contractor is entitled to charge default interest at a rate of 9 percentage points above the base interest rate.

4. Replacement Guarantee

If a placed candidate leaves the Client's company during the probationary period (maximum 6 months), the Contractor will provide a free replacement. This does not apply if the termination originates from the Client or is based on circumstances attributable to the Client.

  • Not contact candidates directly without the Contractor's consent
  • Inform the Contractor immediately of any completed hiring

The processing of personal data is carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). Details are set out in our Privacy Policy.

8. Liability

8.1 Limitation of Liability

The Contractor is only liable for damages based on intentional or grossly negligent conduct. Liability for slight negligence is excluded unless essential contractual obligations are breached.

8.2 No Guarantee of Hiring

The Contractor does not guarantee that a presented candidate will actually be hired or will meet the Client's expectations. The hiring decision rests solely with the Client.

Should individual provisions of these Terms and Conditions be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid provision that comes closest to the economic purpose.

10.3 Applicable Law and Jurisdiction

The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies. The place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from the contractual relationship is the Contractor's registered office, provided the Client is a merchant, legal entity under public law, or special fund under public law.
