Terms of Service

This document sets out the Terms and Conditions ("Terms") on which Roselbert Nigeria ("We", "Us", "Manpower Nigeria") provides customers access to certain business services through the www.manpower.com.ng website ("Website").

Please read these terms very carefully before using the website and its services. You acknowledge and agree that by clicking on "I accept" as an individual or on behalf of a nominated company or organisation (in these terms, the "Customer"), you agree that individual, company or organisation will be bound by these terms as a customer. You warrant and represent that you have full capacity and authority to enter into this agreement on behalf of the individual customer or organisation.

If you do not accept these terms, you will not be able to use the website and the services. You are advised to print and retain a copy of these terms for future reference.

  1. The website & the services

    1. The Website is owned and managed by Roselbert Nigeria Services.
    2. In consideration for the payment of the Fees, Manpower Nigeria shall provide the Customer with the services as described on the Website, which allow the Customer to advertise, browse, find and contact businesses and professionals ("Services").
    3. For the avoidance of doubt, Manpower Nigeria’s obligations shall be limited only to the provision of the Services and do not in any way include acting on the Customer’s behalf. Nothing in these Terms is intended to, or shall be deemed to, establish any partnership or joint venture between the Customer and Manpower Nigeria, appoint either party as the agent of the other, nor authorise either party to make or enter into any commitments for or on behalf of the other party.
    4. Manpower Nigeria may from time to time add, modify, suspend or cease (temporarily or permanently) the provision of any element of the Services upon notice to the Customer.
    5. Manpower Nigeria shall have no obligation to notify the Customer in the event of an unplanned service downtime. In the event of a planned service downtime in respect of the Services or the Website, Manpower Nigeria shall use its reasonable endeavours to notify the Customer in advance provided that Manpower Nigeria is able to do so.
    6. Access to the Website and the Services may be granted to the Customer on a trial or ‘free’ basis ("Trial"). The Customer acknowledges and agrees that during the Trial, these Terms and conditions shall apply, as well as the following specific terms:
      1. access to the Services during the Trial will be provided at no cost to the Customer;
      2. such access is solely for the purpose of offering the Customer a preview demonstration of the functionality and features of the Services;
      3. the functionality of the Services during a trial may be limited or restricted; and
      4. Manpower Nigeria may withdraw or suspend the Customer’s access to the Services at any time during the Trial, and at the completion of the Trial continued access to the Website and/or Services may be subject to payment of Fees or charges.
  2. Registration & collaborators

    1. In order to use the Services, the Customer shall first be required to register with Manpower Nigeria by completing the online registration form on the Website.
    2. Manpower Nigeria shall send the Customer a confirmation email ("Confirmation Email") once it has accepted and confirmed the Customer’s registration. The Customer’s contract to use the Services on these Terms ("Contract") commences on the date of the Confirmation Email.
    3. Manpower Nigeria reserves the right to conduct verification and security procedures in respect of all information provided by the Customer to Manpower Nigeria. If Manpower Nigeria has reason to believe that the information provided by the Customer to register and use any of the Services breaches or is likely to breach any of the provision in these Terms, Manpower Nigeria at its sole discretion may take any action that it deems appropriate including without limitation, to terminate the Customer’s Contract.
    4. These Terms shall apply to any and all Collaborators who access and use the Website and the Customer Services through the Customer’s account.
    5. The Customer shall, and shall ensure its Collaborators, keep any Customer and Collaborator usernames and passwords ("Logins") safe and secure to ensure that they are not used without the Customer’s permission. The Customer must immediately notify Us if it has reason to believe that there has been unauthorised use or access to the Customer’s Logins and/or the Customer’s profile on the Website. The Customer shall be solely responsible and liable for any breaches of these Terms arising out of or resulting from use of the Customer’s Logins to access the Services and/or the Website, whether such use is authorised by the Customer or not.

Whilst Manpower Nigeria takes all reasonable steps available to it to provide the Customer with a good level of service, Manpower Nigeria does not guarantee that such service shall be fault free or uninterrupted at all times.
