Acceptable Use Policy

Last updated: April 2026 | Version 2.0 (global)

This Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") governs what you may and may not do with JobsApply (the "Service"). It is part of our Terms of Service. If you violate this AUP we may suspend or terminate your account without notice and without refund, and you will remain liable for damages, indemnification, and any statutory penalties.

1. You must not misrepresent yourself or anyone else

  • You must only apply for jobs for yourself, using your own identity and truthful information.
  • You must not impersonate another person or misstate your qualifications, experience, education, employment history, work authorization, identity, citizenship, residency, or any equal-opportunity / diversity characteristic in applications you submit through the Service.
  • You must not use someone else's resume, references, licenses, or credentials without their written authorization.
  • You must not use the Service to apply for positions on behalf of any other person, including as part of an employment or recruitment service.

2. You are responsible for third-party site compliance

  • You must comply with the terms of service, rules, and application instructions of every third-party website, job board, applicant tracking system, or employer portal you use the Service to interact with.
  • If a site's terms prohibit automated applications, scraping, creating multiple accounts, or bot activity, you must not use the Service against that site. Whether a site permits automation is your responsibility to determine, including by reading the site's terms, its robots.txt file, and any notices the site displays to you.
  • You must respect "Do Not Apply" lists, re-application waiting periods, and any other restrictions an employer or platform communicates to you.
  • You may only use credentials for third-party sites that are yours and that you are permitted to use on automated tools.
  • If a third-party site contacts us asking us to stop automating on their platform — whether informally or by cease-and-desist — we may disable Auto-Apply for that site for all users, without notice and without refund.

3. You must not abuse the Service itself

  • You must not scrape, crawl, or harvest data from the Service beyond normal use of its interface.
  • You must not resell, sublicense, rent, lease, or provide the Service to others (for example, as an agency applying on behalf of clients).
  • You must not build or train competing products, AI models, or datasets using the Service, its outputs, or any content we generate.
  • You must not reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive source code, except to the extent such a restriction is prohibited by applicable law.
  • You must not circumvent rate limits, usage limits, tier limits, billing controls, authentication, or other protective mechanisms, including by maintaining multiple accounts to increase free-tier allowances.
  • You must not share your account or allow more than one person to use it.

4. You must not compromise security or availability

  • No attempts to gain unauthorized access to any account, system, or network; to introduce malware; to probe or scan for vulnerabilities; or to interfere with Service operation.
  • No distributed or high-volume automated traffic designed to degrade or disrupt the Service or any third-party site.
  • Report security vulnerabilities to security@jobsapply.app before publicly disclosing. We will not pursue good-faith security researchers who follow coordinated-disclosure practice.

5. You must not use the Service for unlawful or harmful purposes

  • No use that violates any applicable law, including criminal law, consumer-protection law, privacy law, data-protection law, anti-spam law, employment law, anti-discrimination law, export-control or sanctions law, tax law, or immigration law, in any jurisdiction that applies to you or to any recipient of your application.
  • No discriminatory, harassing, hateful, defamatory, or threatening content directed at any person or group.
  • No content that infringes intellectual property, violates confidentiality, or reveals personal information of a third party without their consent.
  • No use in connection with fraud, money laundering, sanctions evasion, human trafficking, recruitment for violent extremism, or any other criminal activity.
  • No use against employers, industries, or roles that are prohibited in your jurisdiction (for example, applying for a regulated role without the required licence, or applying for a role that requires a security clearance you do not hold).

6. AI output is a draft for your review

  • Every resume, cover letter, answer, and other AI-generated output is a draft for you to review. You are responsible for verifying its accuracy and appropriateness before submission.
  • You must not knowingly submit AI-generated content that makes misrepresentations to an employer, that plagiarizes another person's work, or that otherwise misleads its recipient.
  • If an employer, school, platform, or regulator requires disclosure that application materials were prepared with AI assistance, complying with that requirement is your responsibility.

7. Data you upload about third parties

  • You must have the legal right to upload references, colleague names, contact details, or any other information about third parties that you provide to the Service.
  • Where required by applicable privacy law, you must have notified those individuals and obtained any necessary consents before providing their information.

8. Reporting and enforcement

  • Report abuse to legal@jobsapply.app.
  • We may investigate suspected violations and cooperate with law enforcement.
  • Enforcement measures include warnings, feature restrictions, suspension, and termination without refund. We may preserve and disclose information relating to a suspected violation as permitted by law.
  • We may add sites, behaviours, or categories of use to this AUP at any time.

9. Changes

We may update this AUP at any time. We will give notice of material changes as described in the Terms. Minor clarifications are effective when posted.
