Terms & Conditions

Last updated 2026-05-26

Operator
FreshRole is a product operated by TECHPODS. All references to "we", "us", and "our" in this document mean TECHPODS. Payments are processed by Paddle as our merchant of record — any charges related to FreshRole will appear on your card or bank statement as TECHPODS (via Paddle).

These Terms & Conditions govern your use of FreshRole, a service operated by TECHPODS ("we", "us", "our"). By creating an account, subscribing, or using the service in any way, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use FreshRole.

1. The service

FreshRole is a job-discovery and alert service. We monitor publicly available company career pages and surface relevant software engineering roles, together with a sponsorship-likelihood signal. We do not provide legal, immigration, or career advice. Sponsorship signals are an estimate based on public data and may be incorrect — always verify directly with the employer.

2. Eligibility & account

You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding contract to use FreshRole. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for all activity that occurs under your account.

3. Subscription & billing

FreshRole offers a free tier and a paid Pro subscription. Pro is billed monthly in advance at the price shown on the pricing page. Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing cycle until you cancel. You authorize TECHPODS (via our payment processor, Paddle, who acts as merchant of record) to charge your payment method on each renewal date. Charges related to FreshRole will appear on your statement as TECHPODS via Paddle.

4. Cancellation & refunds

You can cancel your Pro subscription at any time from your account settings. Cancellation takes effect from the next renewal date — you retain Pro access until the end of your current paid billing cycle, and no further charges will be made after that. We do not provide pro-rated refunds for partial billing periods. See our Cancellation Policy for full details.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to: (a) scrape, copy, or resell job data from FreshRole; (b) share your account credentials with others; (c) use the service to send unsolicited messages; (d) attempt to bypass rate limits, paywalls, or security controls; or (e) use the service for any unlawful purpose.

6. Third-party content & links

Job listings, employer information, and external links displayed on FreshRole are sourced from publicly available career pages and third-party feeds. We do not endorse any employer and are not responsible for the accuracy of job descriptions, salary ranges, or hiring outcomes. When you apply, you are dealing directly with the employer.

7. Sponsorship signals — disclaimer

Sponsorship confidence scores are produced by automated analysis of public records and job description language. They are estimates, not legal advice or guarantees. Employer policies, country immigration rules, and individual circumstances can change at any time. Always confirm visa sponsorship directly with the employer before relying on it.

8. Intellectual property

FreshRole, the FreshRole brand, the user interface, and the proprietary signal models are owned by TECHPODS. You receive a limited, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the service for personal job-search use only.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, FreshRole is provided on an "as is" basis without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential losses (including missed job opportunities, lost wages, or visa outcomes) arising from your use of the service. Our total liability in any 12-month period is limited to the amount you paid us in that period.

10. Termination

You may close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, with or without notice. On termination, your right to use the service ends immediately, but sections that by their nature should survive (such as intellectual property and limitation of liability) will continue to apply.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be announced via email or an in-product notice at least 14 days before they take effect. Continuing to use FreshRole after changes take effect means you accept the updated terms.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts of England and Wales, unless a mandatory local law gives you the right to bring proceedings elsewhere.
