1. The service and its operator

Vinn.is is operated by Vinn.is. Vinn.is is a digital employment and recruitment service where companies can publish job advertisements and manage recruitment, and job seekers can browse, save and apply for jobs.

Vinn.is is not the employer, a recruitment agency or a party to an employment agreement unless expressly stated. Each employer is responsible for its recruitment decisions and employment relationship.

2. Accounts, authority and security

Information submitted at registration must be accurate and kept up to date. Login credentials are personal. Users must protect them, must not allow another person to use their account and must notify Vinn.is promptly if unauthorised access is suspected.

A job seeker who chooses Google or Facebook sign-in also remains responsible for the security of that provider account. The provider may apply its own terms and privacy policy to the authentication step.

Candidate accounts and employer profiles are separate. A person who is granted employer access acts for the relevant company under the role assigned to them. Anyone registering a company or accepting an invitation confirms that they have authority to do so.

It is prohibited to impersonate another person, scrape or systematically copy the service, bypass access controls, upload harmful content, test security without permission or use information obtained through Vinn.is for an unrelated purpose.

3. Company identity and employer responsibilities

The company registration number is the permanent identifier of a company account and cannot be changed by employer users. If it was registered incorrectly, an authorised representative must contact Vinn.is. A correction is made only after Vinn.is has verified the request and supporting information.

Companies are responsible for the accuracy and lawfulness of company details, listings, screening questions, messages and other content they submit. Content must not be misleading, discriminatory, defamatory, infringe third-party rights or otherwise breach applicable law.

Employer users must give access to applicant information only to people who need it for the recruitment process and must remove access when it is no longer required.

4. Job listings, review and content rights

Vinn.is may review a listing before or after publication, correct obvious formatting errors and request clarification or evidence. Vinn.is may delay, reject, unpublish or remove content that breaches these terms, law or reasonable quality and security standards. Where practical, the company will be told the reason.

The company retains its rights to submitted content and confirms that it has the necessary permission to use it. The company grants Vinn.is a non-exclusive, worldwide and royalty-free licence to store, format, reproduce, display and distribute that content only as needed to provide and promote the relevant listing and the service.

5. Job seekers and applications

Job seekers are responsible for the accuracy of their profile, CV, answers and application. They should submit only information relevant to the role and avoid special-category or otherwise sensitive personal information unless it is necessary and lawful to provide it.

When an application is submitted through Vinn.is, the job seeker instructs Vinn.is to deliver the selected profile information, CV, answers and message to the company advertising the role. Submission does not guarantee that the application will be reviewed, that an interview will be offered or that employment will follow.

Some listings direct applicants to an external website or email address. Those application methods are controlled by the relevant employer or third party and are subject to their own terms and privacy information.

6. Price, publication period and billing

Every standard job advertisement first published before 1 December 2026 receives a 100% launch discount for its full publication period of up to 60 days. No charge is created merely because its application deadline or publication period continues into December. From 1 December 2026, the standard price for a newly published advertisement is ISK 22.900 excluding VAT for up to 60 days, unless another price or valid discount is clearly shown before publication is confirmed. The standard listing has no subscription or click fee.

A company, institution or municipality registered before 1 December 2026 is eligible for a 50% early-registration benefit on the standard price for publications from 1 December 2026 through 30 November 2027. The benefit activates only after the main owner account verifies its email. Verification may occur after the registration cutoff without removing eligibility. The benefit is applied automatically as a pricing policy and is recorded in billing; it is not a promo code. Registrations on or after 1 December 2026 are not eligible.

The moment when the advertisement is first published determines the applicable price for that publication period. A charge is created only when a paid listing is published. Unpublishing, closing early or editing a paid listing does not automatically cancel its charge. Optional promotion is billed separately at the price and for the period confirmed when it is ordered.

Invoices are issued to the company using its registered billing information. Amounts shown as excluding VAT are subject to the applicable VAT rate. Any payment due date and collection terms stated on the invoice apply.

7. Processing of applicant information for companies

Each company is responsible for determining the purpose and lawful basis for its recruitment processing and for giving applicants the information required by data-protection law. When Vinn.is stores and organises applicant information on a company’s instructions, Vinn.is processes that information only to provide, secure and support the service and uses service providers subject to appropriate confidentiality and data-protection obligations.

The company must notify Vinn.is promptly of a suspected personal-data breach or unlawful use involving the service and reasonably cooperate with requests concerning access, correction, deletion, restriction or other data-subject rights. Further information appears in the privacy policy.

8. Availability, third-party services and liability

Vinn.is works to keep the service secure and available but does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation, a particular outcome from a listing or the accuracy of content supplied by users or companies. Planned maintenance, security work or circumstances outside reasonable control may temporarily limit access.

To the extent permitted by mandatory law, Vinn.is is not liable for indirect or consequential loss, recruitment decisions, conduct outside the service or a third-party service. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

9. Restriction, suspension and termination

Vinn.is may restrict or suspend access where this is reasonably necessary because of misuse, false information, unlawful content, a security risk, an unpaid obligation or a material breach of these terms. Candidate users may request account deletion in account settings and cancel the request during the stated 14-day period. Closure does not erase billing records, security logs, audit trails or other information that Vinn.is or a company must retain under law or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

10. Changes, governing law and disputes

Material changes will be marked with a new effective date and notified separately where appropriate. Changes do not apply retroactively to a confirmed paid publication unless required by law. Icelandic law applies. The parties should first attempt to resolve a dispute through direct communication. An unresolved dispute may be brought before the competent Icelandic court, subject to any mandatory rights that apply.
