Indeed updated its Terms of Service on July 8, 2026 to explicitly include account activity related to the Apply For Me tool in the scope of tracked user activity. The updated language now states that activity includes 'account activity where a user has activated Indeed's Apply For Me tool and an application has been sent to you (an "Auto Apply").' This clarification makes explicit that automated job applications submitted through this feature constitute account activity subject to Indeed's standard terms governing user data and activity monitoring.
The updated terms now explicitly clarify that account activity monitored under Indeed's terms includes actions related to the Apply For Me tool, such as when automated applications are sent on a user's behalf. This is a clarification of scope rather than a material expansion of Indeed's authority; the company previously tracked account activity, and this language simply defines what activity counts. Users who have enabled the Apply For Me feature should understand that Indeed monitors and records when this tool sends applications.
