Anti-Spam Policy


InsidersReferral.com, Inc. ("Jobirn") is committed to helping professional applicants for jobs through pre-qualification and referral offered by a company employee (Insider Referrer), and as a result has established this no-tolerance Anti-Spam Policy. Jobirn will occasionally update this Anti-Spam Policy without prior notice. When it does, Jobirn will also revise the "last updated" date at the foot of this Anti-Spam Policy.

1. What is Spam?


- Messages (including comments) broadcasted to other Jobirn users that advertise a product or service, especially those advertising illegal money-making schemes: "Junk" message(s), unsolicited message(s), and messages sent out in bulk;
- Sending a single message sent to 20 or more contacts;
- Applying for 20 or more jobs or companies that have no relevance to your primary industry or primary job category;
- Sending bulk recruitment advertisements to applicants with no regards to the requirement of the job.

2. Preventing Spam


Users of Jobirn products and services have agreed during their registration process, upon accepting the Terms of Use , to comply with this Anti-Spam Policy. Jobirn reserves the right to determine in its sole discretion what constitutes actionable spam, as well as what measures are necessary in response to such spam activities. Jobirn also reserves the right to terminate your account and participation in our programs "for cause" if we deem you to be in violation of our anti-spamming policy. We also reserves the right to suspend your account and participation pending review upon receipt of any complaint or other evidence that you may be engaging in any spamming activity.

3. How Jobirn Helps You to Avoid Spamming


Jobirn has developed a strict permission-based philosophy. This anti-spam philosophy is implemented through the following:

(a) Refos System- To encourage participation, reward great contributors and reduce spamming, Jobirn has a system of refos. The number of refos you get depends on the specific action you take. The points table below summarizes the refo values for different actions. While you can't use refos to buy or redeem anything, they do allow everyone to recognize how active and helpful you've been. (And they give you another excuse to brag to your friends.)

(b) Reporting spam-If you believe that you have received spam from or through Jobirn's facilities, please click "spam" in the chat window, and tell us why you think it’s spam. You can also contact our customer service to report spam. Please provide any other information that you believe may help us in our investigation. Jobirn does not investigate or take any action based on "anonymous" spam complaints. If you are proven as a spammer after our investigation, the "Spam Reporting" policy will apply.

(c) Filter System- The filter system gives referrers /hiring managers/recruiters the ability to conveniently find the type of applicants they are looking for. Any chat request without meeting the requirement will be automatically blocked.

(d) Qualified Pool- Each company has its own pre-qualified pool. As a referrer/hiring manager/recruiter, you could see your company's qualified pool and find out which applicants are qualified and why. As an applicant, refos will be added if you are qualified by a company insider.
