Terms & Conditions

1. Who we are and what these terms cover

These Terms & Conditions govern your use of Diligent Apply, the job-discovery service available through the Diligent Growth domain. “We”, “us” and “our” mean the legal operator below; “you” means the person using the service. These terms cover Diligent Apply only. Other Diligent Growth staffing, recruitment or business services require their own applicable arrangements.

The version presented when you register or accept an updated agreement applies to your account. Read these terms, our Privacy Policy and our Refund & Cancellation Policy before accepting. The Privacy Policy explains processing; it does not replace any separate consent required for an optional feature.

2. Eligibility and your account

Diligent Apply is available only to individuals aged 18 or older using it for job searches in India. You must have legal capacity to enter into this agreement, provide accurate information, and use an email account you control. We do not offer child accounts or guardian-consent registration.

Sign-in uses email verification. Keep your mailbox and verification codes secure, do not share account access, and notify us promptly of suspected misuse. You remain responsible for activity you authorise; reporting unauthorised activity does not waive your rights to an investigation or correction.

Review and confirm your profile and search preferences. Resume extraction provides editable suggestions and may contain errors. You may complete your profile manually instead of uploading a resume. Keep confirmed information current.

3. What the service provides

We retrieve and organise relevant hiring posts from LinkedIn’s posts section and job listings from Naukri’s jobs section, within the sources and limits shown in the service. LinkedIn Jobs, automatic job applications, recruiter outreach and contact enrichment are outside this service.

Newly qualifying opportunities must have a verifiable source publication time within the preceding 24 hours at qualification. This is a discovery criterion, not a promise that a vacancy remains open when you view it. Retained history and Saved or Applied items may become older; check the publication date and original source.

Searches are bounded and may omit relevant opportunities. Relevance scores are automated comparisons with your confirmed profile and preferences, not an employer assessment, hiring decision or probability of selection. A search can return few or no qualifying results.

You apply on the original source or employer website under its terms. Marking an item “Applied” records your own action; it does not submit or verify an application. We do not guarantee interviews, offers, placement, applicant priority, exhaustive coverage, a fixed completion time, or the accuracy or legitimacy of every third-party listing.

4. Free search, packages and payment

One bounded free search is available per verified application account, subject to eligibility and abuse controls. It requires no credit purchase. A completed empty or partial free search uses the entitlement; a total technical failure restores it.

Paid searches require prepaid service credits. Your account shows the initial package available to you; after a verified purchase, eligible top-up packages become available. Review your own package, credit quantity, price, applicable tax and final INR total before paying. Prices are not a promise that a particular number of opportunities will be delivered.

Purchases are one-time payments. There are no subscriptions, automatic credit purchases or automatic top-ups. Ordinary purchased credits do not expire. Credits are for services within your account, cannot be transferred to another user, and are not a cash balance redeemable on demand. Refunds required by law or our Refund Policy remain available.

Payment availability depends on the enabled checkout. Credits are added after authoritative payment confirmation; a bank debit, browser redirect or screenshot alone may require reconciliation. Never pay an individual or an unofficial payment address to activate credits.

5. How paid search charges work

Before a manual paid search, we show an estimate, maximum charge, search limits and applicable billing terms for your approval. A quote is time-limited. We reserve the accepted maximum from your available credits while processing and release the unused part after settlement.

You pay for completed retrieval work, rather than for a guaranteed number of displayed matches. A completed search can use credits even if retrieved items are duplicates, already seen, filtered out or produce no qualifying results. The final charge cannot exceed your accepted maximum.

A total technical search failure restores all held credits. A partial search charges only successfully completed source work; failed-source work is not charged. Unverifiable source charges are waived when the search closes rather than charged to you later. Platform-fault credit restoration is different from a payment refund. See the Refund Policy for examples and billing disputes.

6. Scheduled searches and email choices

Scheduled searches are optional and require explicit authorisation, selected search times in Indian Standard Time (IST), and a daily scheduled-spend cap. When enabled, they may spend your existing credits without a fresh click for each run, within the consented settings and cap. Review the terms displayed when enabling or changing a schedule.

You can disable future scheduled searches in settings. A search already admitted may complete and settle under its accepted terms. The daily scheduled cap includes settled and reserved scheduled charges for that IST date; separately authorised manual searches use available credits outside that cap. No automatic purchase occurs when balance is insufficient.

Searches may be delayed or skipped because of availability, admission limits or insufficient balance. Missed searches are not accumulated for a downtime catch-up. Email job alerts require a separate opt-in and verified destination. Disabling email alerts does not disable scheduled searches; turn off the schedule separately if you want future automated spending to stop. Delivery times and receipt of every result are not guaranteed.

7. Fair use and third-party content

Use Diligent Apply for your own lawful job discovery. Do not impersonate others, submit information you lack permission to use, bypass access or spending controls, exploit free entitlements, interfere with service security, distribute malware, harvest personal data, or scrape or resell the service or its results without permission. Do not upload confidential employer documents or unnecessary sensitive information.

Third-party names, trademarks, listings and linked content belong to their respective owners. Their appearance does not establish affiliation, endorsement or a partnership with LinkedIn, Naukri or an employer. Our software, original text and design remain owned by us or our licensors; your personal information and uploaded content remain yours. You grant only the permission needed to process your content to provide and secure the service, subject to the Privacy Policy.

Independently verify employers and application instructions. Be cautious about requests for recruitment fees or financial credentials. Report suspicious, inaccurate or infringing content through Contact Us, including the source URL and reason.

8. Availability, suspension and account closure

We use reasonable care in providing the service, but access can be interrupted by maintenance, network failures or third-party source changes. Features shown as unavailable cannot be treated as active service commitments. If we materially change or discontinue a paid service, we will explain the effect on existing credits and provide any remedy required by applicable law.

We may restrict access where reasonably necessary to address fraud, security, unlawful use or a material breach. Where lawful and practicable, we will explain the reason and how to seek review. Suspension does not itself erase a valid payment dispute or justify withholding a legally required refund.

You may request account deletion in account settings or through support. New work and future scheduled spending stop once deletion is accepted. Already initiated financial or search effects may still need reconciliation. The confirmation must show remaining ordinary non-refundable credits and ask you to confirm their forfeiture before deletion. Deletion does not remove your statutory refund rights or permit indefinite retention of operational personal data. See the Privacy Policy for deletion and retention details.

9. Responsibility and legal remedies

Third-party employers control recruitment, listings and application outcomes. We are responsible for our own service obligations and for using reasonable care; we do not take responsibility for an employer’s independent hiring decision or a third-party website’s conduct merely because we link to it.

To the extent permitted by law, we exclude indirect or consequential losses arising from service use, including speculative employment opportunities or expected earnings. This does not exclude liability for fraud, wilful misconduct, liabilities that cannot lawfully be limited, or remedies available for deficient services, unfair practices, billing errors or unlawful data handling.

Nothing in these terms removes a consumer right, imposes an unlawful waiver, or prevents you from approaching a competent consumer commission, regulator or court. No mandatory arbitration or exclusive out-of-state dispute forum is imposed.

10. Questions, grievances and governing law

Contact Vijay@Diligentgrowth.com or +91 84079 59709 for service or billing help. Include the relevant account email and search or order reference; never send an OTP, password, CVV or full card number.

Grievance Officer: Vijay Girishchandra Kulkarni
Email: Vijay@Diligentgrowth.com

Consumer complaints will be acknowledged within 48 hours of receipt and redressed within one month. If further information is needed, we will explain what is required and keep you informed; this does not extend any mandatory legal deadline. You may contact support using the details above while requesting escalation to the Grievance Officer.

Indian law governs these terms, subject to mandatory protections. Disputes may be brought before courts or consumer forums with jurisdiction under applicable law. You may also use the National Consumer Helpline; contacting us first does not remove your right to an external remedy.

11. Updates and interpretation

We will publish a dated version when these terms change and give reasonable advance notice of material changes through the service or your registered contact, except where an urgent legal or security change is necessary. We will obtain fresh agreement where required. Changes do not retroactively increase an accepted search charge or remove an accrued statutory right.

If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining lawful provisions continue. The Refund Policy explains payment remedies; mandatory law prevails over any inconsistent wording. Failure to enforce a term once does not waive future enforcement.
