You agree to use our website lawfully, responsibly and respectfully. You must not:

• Use the website for unlawful, fraudulent or misleading purposes.

​

4. Information and Guidance

We aim to ensure that information published on our website is accurate, relevant and helpful. However, information relating to employment, recruitment, careers, qualifications, military life and other matters may change over time. Unless expressly stated otherwise, information provided through Beyond the CV is general information and should not be treated as individual legal, financial, employment or other professional advice. Where appropriate, we encourage visitors to seek independent advice from a suitably qualified professional or relevant organisation.

​

Nothing on this website creates a solicitor-client, adviser-client, employment or other professional relationship.

​

5. Employment and Career Opportunities

Beyond the CV seeks to raise awareness of employment barriers and encourage organisations to recognise transferable skills and potential. However, we do not guarantee:

• Employment or an offer of work.

• Interviews or recruitment outcomes.

• Acceptance onto a particular programme.

• The suitability of any employer, vacancy or opportunity.

• Specific career progression or financial outcomes.

 

Where employment opportunities or third-party services are featured, individuals are responsible for reviewing the relevant information and deciding whether to apply or participate. Unless we expressly state otherwise, Beyond the CV is not the employer, recruiter or contracting party for third-party vacancies advertised or discussed through our website. We encourage employers and applicants to undertake their own appropriate checks.

​

6. The Beyond the CV Charter

The Beyond the CV Charter is intended to encourage employers and organisations to recognise transferable skills, challenge unnecessary recruitment barriers and support fair employment opportunities. Participation in the Charter does not, by itself, constitute accreditation by a statutory regulator or an independent guarantee of an organisation's employment practices. Any certificates, supporter designations or recognition issued through the Charter relate to the relevant initiative and its published participation criteria. Employers and organisations remain responsible for complying with all applicable employment, equality, data protection and other legal obligations. Beyond the CV may review, amend, suspend or withdraw participation or recognition where reasonably justified, including where information has been materially misrepresented or an organisation no longer meets the relevant criteria. Any additional terms relating to particular Charter participation levels or services will be communicated separately where applicable.

​

7. Community Stories and Contributions

Beyond the CV may invite individuals to share personal stories, experiences, opinions and career journeys. We value honest conversations and recognise that experiences of military life and employment can vary significantly. Where you submit content for possible publication, you confirm that:

• The contribution is your own or you have the necessary permission to share it.

• The information is provided honestly and in good faith.

• You have considered the privacy of any other individuals mentioned.

• You have not knowingly included confidential, classified or operationally sensitive information.

• Your contribution does not unlawfully infringe another person's rights.

 

Submitting content does not guarantee that it will be published. We may decline to publish, edit with the contributor's agreement, or remove content where reasonably necessary, including for accuracy, safety, privacy or legal reasons. Any arrangements for publishing identifiable personal stories, photographs or interviews will be explained separately, including the permissions required. We will not treat the submission of a story as automatic permission to use it for unlimited purposes.

​

8. Beyond the Uniform Podcast

Beyond the Uniform is a podcast initiative developed as part of Beyond the CV. The podcast aims to share experiences, encourage conversations and highlight the people behind military life, employment and career journeys. Views expressed by podcast guests are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Beyond the CV or JB Property Law Limited. Podcast content is provided for general information, discussion and awareness. Participation in a podcast recording will be subject to appropriate arrangements covering recording, editing, publication and promotional use.  Guests must not knowingly disclose confidential, classified or operationally sensitive information or unlawfully share another person's personal information. We reserve the right to decline, postpone or discontinue a recording or publication where reasonably necessary.

​

9. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, the website's original written content, branding, graphics, logos and other materials belong to JB Property Law Limited, trading as Beyond the CV, or are used with permission from their respective owners. All applicable intellectual property rights are reserved.  You may view, share links to and print reasonable extracts from our website for lawful personal, educational or non-commercial purposes, provided that appropriate credit is given and the material is not misleadingly altered. You must not reproduce substantial parts of our content, use our branding in a way that suggests endorsement, or commercially exploit our materials without prior written permission, unless otherwise permitted by law. Third-party trademarks, images, quotations and other materials remain the property of their respective owners.

​

10. Links to Other Websites

Our website may include links to employers, charities, support organisations, educational resources, social media platforms and other external websites.  These links are provided for information and convenience.  Unless expressly stated, including a link does not mean that Beyond the CV endorses, approves or guarantees the organisation, its services or its content.  We are not responsible for the content, availability or practices of independent third-party websites.  Visitors should review the relevant terms, privacy policies and other information before using external services.

​

11. Events, Webinars and Community Activities

Beyond the CV may organise or promote online or in-person events, webinars, networking opportunities and community activities.

Specific events may be subject to additional participation requirements, booking arrangements or terms. We may make reasonable changes to event dates, formats, speakers or arrangements where necessary. Where an event is operated by a third party, that organiser may have its own terms and conditions.  Participants are expected to behave respectfully towards organisers, speakers and other attendees. We may refuse or withdraw participation where reasonably necessary to protect attendees, prevent harassment or maintain a safe and respectful environment.

​

12. Respectful Conduct and Inclusion

Beyond the CV is committed to promoting fairness, inclusion and respect.  We welcome constructive discussion and recognise that people may have different experiences and opinions.  However, harassment, bullying, threats, discriminatory abuse and deliberately harmful behaviour are not acceptable in our community activities.  We may moderate or remove content and restrict participation where reasonably necessary to uphold these standards.  Any such action will be considered in the circumstances and in accordance with applicable law.

​

13. Website Availability and Security

We aim to keep our website accessible, functional and secure. However, we cannot guarantee uninterrupted access or that the website will always be free from technical errors. We may temporarily suspend access for maintenance, updates, security reasons or circumstances outside our reasonable control. We recommend that visitors use appropriate security measures when accessing websites and online services.

​

14. Liability

We take reasonable care in preparing and maintaining the information provided through our website. However, we do not guarantee that all content will be complete, accurate or up to date at every moment.  To the extent permitted by law, JB Property Law Limited will not be responsible for losses arising solely from reliance on general website information where it would be unreasonable to treat that information as individual professional advice. We are not responsible for the independent actions, decisions or services of third-party employers, organisations or website operators. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions affects any statutory rights you may have.

​

15. Privacy and Personal Information

We respect the privacy of our website visitors, contributors and community participants.  Information about how we collect, use and protect personal information is available in our Privacy Policy.  Our use of cookies and similar technologies is explained in our Cookie Policy.  You can read these policies at:  Privacy Policy: www.btcv.co.uk/privacy-policy Cookie Policy: www.btcv.co.uk/cookie-policy

​

16. Changes to Our Organisation

Beyond the CV is currently operated as a trading name of JB Property Law Limited. We are working towards establishing Beyond the CV as a separately registered Community Interest Company.  If the legal structure changes, we may update these Terms and Conditions to reflect the organisation responsible for operating the website and delivering its activities.  Any changes affecting existing agreements or personal information will be considered separately and handled in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

​

17. Changes to These Terms and Conditions
