Terms of Use

Effective and last updated: October 11, 2026 · Applies to trabahocentral.com and the TrabahoCentral mobile app

1. Agreeing to these terms

These Terms of Use are an agreement between you and [MBT Tech, registered business name] ("TrabahoCentral", "we", "us"). They apply to the TrabahoCentral website, the mobile app and all related services. By creating an account or using TrabahoCentral, you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use TrabahoCentral.

2. Who can use TrabahoCentral

• You must be at least 18 years old.
• Give accurate information and keep it up to date. One person per account, and no accounts in someone else's name.
• Keep your password and sign-in codes private. You are responsible for what happens on your account. Tell us right away if you think someone else is using it.
• If you create an employer account, you confirm that you are allowed to act for that business, and you are responsible for what your team members do.

3. Rules for jobseekers

• Your profile, résumé, photos, videos and answers must be truthful and your own work. Don't claim degrees, licenses, jobs or skills you don't have.
• Apply only to jobs you're actually interested in.
• Don't share passwords, bank details or government ID numbers with an employer through TrabahoCentral messages. A real employer doesn't need them before hiring you.
• No legitimate employer should ask you to pay to apply, take a test or get hired. If one does, report it to us.

4. Rules for employers

• Post only real, currently open jobs that you are allowed to fill. Describe the job, pay and location honestly.
• Never charge applicants any fee, deposit or "training cost", and never ask them to buy products.
• Follow Philippine labor and anti-discrimination laws, including the Labor Code and the Anti-Age Discrimination in Employment Act (RA 10911). Don't set requirements or ask questions about age, religion, civil status, pregnancy, sex, appearance, ethnicity or political views unless the law clearly allows it for that job.
• Jobs abroad may be posted only by agencies licensed by the Department of Migrant Workers (DMW). Recruitment without the required license is illegal.
• Use applicants' information only to recruit for the job they applied to. Keep it secure, don't sell or share it, and delete it when you no longer need it, as the Data Privacy Act requires.
• Questions you add to skills tests must be fair and related to the job. Our system may block questions that aren't.
• You make the hiring decisions and are responsible for them, including any decision that takes AI scores into account.

5. Credits and payments

• Employers buy credits to pay for optional features such as featured job posts, Hottest Jobs ads, AI banners, custom skills tests and extra test capacity. Current prices are shown in your account before you spend anything.
• Payments are processed by PayMongo (cards, GCash, Maya and other methods it supports). Prices are in Philippine pesos and include applicable taxes [confirm VAT treatment].
• Credits have no cash value. They can't be transferred, exchanged for cash or used outside TrabahoCentral. [Credits do not expire.]
• Refunds: purchased credits are non-refundable except where the law requires otherwise or we made a mistake. If an AI feature fails after charging you, its credits are returned to your balance automatically.
• We may change prices in the future. Changes never affect credits you already bought or features you already paid for.
• If your account is closed for breaking these terms, unused credits may be forfeited.

6. New-employer promo

• New employer accounts may claim 2,500 free credits until January 31, 2027, 11:59 PM Philippine time.
• Each business may claim it once, using its own valid DTI, SEC or CDA registration number or BIR TIN. Each company account can also claim it only once.
• We may check claims, and we may remove promo credits (including any already spent) from claims that use false, borrowed or invalid registration details.
• We may end or change the promo early if it is being abused. Claims already made fairly will be honored.

7. AI features

• TrabahoCentral uses AI to help write résumés, cover letters, job posts and messages, suggest job matches, and score skills tests.
• AI can be wrong. Review anything it writes before you use it. You are responsible for the content you publish or send.
• AI scores are there to help employers, not to decide for them. The AI never rejects an applicant. Only a person can change an application's status.
• Candidates can ask for a human review of their test results within 7 days.

8. Skills tests and badges

• Take tests on your own, without help from other people, AI tools or outside answers, unless the test says otherwise.
• Our system flags signs of cheating, such as leaving the test page or pasting text, for a person to review. Flags don't change scores by themselves.
• Passing an unedited standard test may earn you a skill badge that is valid for 12 months. We may remove badges earned dishonestly.
• Employers must keep test questions confidential and use results only for the job they were taken for.

9. Your content

• You own what you post: your profile, photos, videos, job posts, company images and messages.
• You give TrabahoCentral a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, display, format and share that content only as needed to run the service. For example, we show your profile to employers you apply to and publish your job posts. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies we must keep by law.
• Only post content you have the right to use. Don't post other people's photos, logos or work without permission.
• We may review, hide or remove content that breaks these terms or the law.

10. Things you must not do

• Post fake jobs, scams, pyramid or "investment" schemes, adult content, or anything illegal.
• Harass, threaten, discriminate against or mislead other users.
• Collect other users' information in bulk (scraping), or use it for anything other than a genuine hiring purpose.
• Send spam or unrelated advertising through messages or job posts.
• Impersonate a person, school or company, or create accounts to get around a suspension or the promo limit.
• Hack, overload or reverse-engineer TrabahoCentral, get around its security or limits, or use bots without our written permission.

11. Suspension and termination

We may warn you, remove content, or limit, suspend or close your account if you break these terms, if the law requires it, or to protect our users. Where we reasonably can, we'll tell you why. If you think we made a mistake, write to us at the address below. You can stop using TrabahoCentral and delete your account at any time (see our Privacy Policy).

12. School themes and our brand

• The school themes on TrabahoCentral are fan-inspired designs that celebrate school pride. TrabahoCentral is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by the UAAP, the NCAA or any school. School names and colors belong to their owners.
• The TrabahoCentral name, logo, mascots, designs and software belong to us. Don't copy or use them without our written permission.

13. Third-party services

TrabahoCentral works with services run by other companies, such as Google and Apple sign-in, GitHub, PayMongo, and links to employers' websites. Their own terms and privacy policies apply when you use them, and we aren't responsible for their services.

14. Disclaimers

• TrabahoCentral is a platform that connects jobseekers and employers. We are not an employer, a recruitment agency or a party to any job offer, contract or employment, and we don't guarantee that you will get a job or find a hire.
• We don't verify every job post, profile or employer. Use your own judgment, and report anything suspicious.
• We work hard to keep TrabahoCentral running and accurate, but we provide it "as is" and "as available", without guarantees that it will always be error-free or uninterrupted, to the extent the law allows.

15. Limits on our liability

To the extent allowed by Philippine law, TrabahoCentral is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, such as lost income, lost opportunities or lost data, or for the actions of employers, jobseekers or other users. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim, or [₱5,000], whichever is higher. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including for fraud, gross negligence or your rights as a consumer.

16. Your responsibility to us

If you break these terms or the law while using TrabahoCentral, for example by posting an illegal job or misusing applicants' data, you agree to cover the reasonable costs and damages this causes us, including legal fees.

17. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines. Please contact us first so we can try to resolve any problem informally. If we can't, disputes will be brought before the proper courts of [Rizal province / your city], Philippines, without affecting any right you have to go to a government agency such as the DTI, DOLE or the National Privacy Commission.

18. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as TrabahoCentral grows. We will change the date at the top and, for important changes, notify you by email or in the app before they take effect. If you keep using TrabahoCentral after that, you accept the new terms.
