1. About Seekze

Seekze is a career communication platform that connects students, graduates, and professionals with industry experts through live 1:1 sessions, and helps businesses find and engage emerging talent.

These Terms apply to all users of the Seekze website (seekze.com) and platform, including students, professionals, businesses, and visitors.

References to ‘Seekze’, ‘we’, ‘us’, or ‘our’ refer to the Seekze platform and its operators.
References to ‘you’ or ‘user’ refer to any individual or organisation using the platform.

2. Eligibility

To use Seekze, you must:
• Be at least 18 years of age
• Have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement
• Not be prohibited from using the platform under applicable law

By using Seekze, you confirm that you meet these requirements. If you are registering on behalf of a business or organisation, you confirm you have authority to bind that entity to these Terms.

3. User Accounts and Registration

3.1 Registration

To access certain features of Seekze, you will need to register by submitting a registration form. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to keep this information updated.

3.2 Account security

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any login credentials associated with your account. You must notify us immediately at hello@seekze.com if you suspect any unauthorised use of your account.

 

3.3 Account termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time if we believe you have violated these Terms, engaged in fraudulent activity, or used the platform in a way that is harmful to other users or to Seekze.

4. User Roles and Responsibilities

 

4.1 Students and graduates

As a student or graduate user, you agree to:
• Use Seekze sessions for genuine career development and learning purposes
• Attend booked sessions or cancel with reasonable notice
• Treat experts and other users with respect and professionalism
• Not record sessions without the explicit consent of all participants
• Not misrepresent your background, qualifications, or intentions

 

4.2 Professionals and experts

As a professional or expert on the platform, you agree to:
• Provide accurate information about your professional background and expertise
• Deliver sessions with genuine knowledge, care, and professionalism
• Not provide regulated professional advice (e.g. legal, medical, financial) unless you hold the appropriate qualifications and permissions
• Set fair and transparent pricing for your sessions
• Maintain confidentiality regarding information shared by students during sessions
• Not solicit students to engage with you outside the Seekze platform in a way that circumvents our fee structure

4.3 Businesses

As a business user, you agree to:
• Use the platform only for legitimate hiring, talent engagement, and career development purposes
• Not misrepresent your company, roles, or intentions to students or professionals
• Comply with applicable employment law, equal opportunities legislation, and data protection law in your interactions with candidates
• Not use contact details or information obtained through Seekze for unsolicited marketing

5. Sessions and Bookings

 

5.1 Booking

Sessions are booked through the Seekze platform. Once a booking is confirmed, both the student and expert are expected to attend at the agreed time.

5.2 Cancellation and no-show policy

We ask all users to give reasonable notice if they cannot attend a session. Specific cancellation terms will be communicated at the time of booking. Repeated no-shows or late cancellations may result in account restrictions.

5.3 Conduct during sessions

All sessions must be conducted respectfully and professionally. We do not permit:
• Harassment, abuse, or discriminatory behaviour of any kind
• Solicitation of personal contact details for purposes unrelated to the session
• Recording of sessions without all-party consent
• Any content or conduct that is illegal, offensive, or harmful
Seekze reserves the right to take action — including account suspension — against any user who breaches these conduct standards.

5.4 Role of Seekze in sessions

Seekze acts as a platform facilitating connections between users. We are not a party to the session itself and are not responsible for the advice given, decisions made, or outcomes arising from sessions. Professionals on our platform are independent practitioners, not
employees or agents of Seekze.

6. Payments and Fees

 

6.1 Student payments

Where sessions are paid, students will be charged at the rate displayed at the time of booking. Payment is processed securely through our payment provider. Seekze does not store full payment card details.

6.2 Professional earnings

Professionals set their own session rates. Seekze will deduct a platform commission from each completed session and remit the remainder to the professional. Commission rates will be communicated separately and may be updated with reasonable notice.

6.3 Business fees

Businesses using Seekze’s talent pool, screening tools, or employer branding features may be subject to separate commercial terms. These will be agreed in writing before services are activated.

6.4 Refunds

Refund eligibility will depend on the circumstances of each case — for example, a session that did not take place due to expert non-attendance. To request a refund, please contact hello@seekze.com within 7 days of the relevant session date. We aim to resolve refund requests within 10 working days.
