Terms of Service

1. Who we are

Book Jobs EU is an independent aggregator and job board, not an employer or recruitment agency. We collect and display publicly available information about publishing jobs from European publishers, bookstores, and literary organisations. We do not host applications, conduct interviews, or take part in hiring decisions for roles listed on the Site. Applications are submitted to employers or third-party platforms via links on each listing.

2. What we provide

The Site offers:

• A searchable directory of book publishing jobs and internships in Continental Europe
• Filters to browse by category, job type, location, and employer
• Links to external employer career pages and application systems
• Optional account features such as saved jobs, where available
• Information about publishers and literary organisations active in the European market

Listings are aggregated from public sources. We try to keep information current, but always confirm details with the employer before applying. Listings may appear in the language in which the employer published them.

3. Your use of the Site

Permitted use

You may use Book Jobs EU for personal, non-commercial purposes to discover jobs and learn about the European publishing industry.

• We are not responsible if a role is filled or removed without notice on the employer's site

5. Third-party links

The Site links to external websites, including publisher career pages and application platforms. We are not responsible for the content, availability, privacy practices, or terms of third-party sites. Your use of those sites is at your own risk.

The Site's original content, design, and functionality are owned by Book Jobs EU and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. Job descriptions, company names, and logos remain the property of their respective owners and are displayed for information only.

If you submit profile information, job postings, or other content, you retain ownership. You grant Book Jobs EU a worldwide, non-exclusive licence to host, store, display, and use that content solely to operate, improve, and support the Site.

10. Disclaimer

The Site is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim warranties that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that job information will always be accurate or current.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
