Acceptable Use Policy

1. Prohibited content and behaviour

You may not use Talenthic to:

• Post, request, or promote roles that discriminate on protected characteristics or violate applicable labour law.
• Post or request unpaid work misrepresented as paid, MLM schemes, or "pay to apply" scams.
• Harass, dox, threaten, or defame any person or company.
• Upload, link to, or distribute malware, phishing pages, or credential harvesters.
• Impersonate another person, employer, recruiter, or Talenthic.

2. Automated access

• Do not scrape the website HTML. Use the public API instead — it is faster, cheaper, and cache-friendly.
• Do not attempt to evade rate limits (multiple keys, rotating IPs, distributed callers acting as one client).
• Respect robots.txt and any X-Robots-Tag we serve.

3. API key hygiene

• Keep keys server-side. Never ship them in browser bundles, mobile app binaries, or public repositories.
• One key per production environment. Rotate a key immediately if you suspect leak.
• You are responsible for all requests made with your key.

4. Redistribution & derivatives

• Attribute Talenthic when you display our data in a public product.
• Forward employer takedown notices we relay to you within 72 hours.
• Do not train a general-purpose foundation model on our API responses without a written agreement. Task-specific fine-tuning inside your product is fine.

5. Security research

Coordinated disclosure is welcome. Email inknamestudio@gmail.com with a proof-of-concept and give us 90 days before public disclosure. Do not:

• Access data that is not yours.
• Run DoS or high-volume fuzzing against production without prior arrangement.
• Use social engineering against staff or contractors.

Good-faith research within these limits will not trigger legal action.

6. Enforcement

We may warn, throttle, suspend, revoke keys, or terminate access for violations — with or without notice depending on severity. Severe or repeat violations may be reported to law enforcement.

7. Reporting abuse

Report a fake job, spam, scam, phishing, or abusive employer to inknamestudio@gmail.com. Include the job URL, the source URL, and a brief description.
