Companies change their terms quietly. We read every version and catch what actually changed. One email a week on the changes that matter and what they mean.
This page describes what the document states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
Indeed's Terms set the rules for using the platform for both job seekers and employers. If something goes wrong and you have breached the Terms, you are responsible for defending Indeed against any resulting claims and costs. Most disputes must be resolved individually through arbitration rather than in court, though job seekers can opt out of that requirement within 30 days of first accepting the Terms.
Indeed's Terms of Service establish the conditions under which employers and job seekers may access and use the platform. The Terms impose broad indemnification obligations on users for any breach, disclaim all warranties to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and cap Indeed's aggregate liability to amounts paid or payable in the 12 months preceding a claim. Dispute resolution is governed by a binding individual-arbitration requirement with a full class, collective, and representative action waiver, though job seekers may opt out within 30 days of first accepting Terms containing the Arbitration Agreement. The Terms also allocate hiring decision-making authority exclusively to employers, prohibit the use of Indeed-provided content as a sole or overriding factor in hiring, and require users who generate or use AI-Generated Content to adopt full legal responsibility for it.
As a job seeker, your application materials may be processed by AI and machine learning tools at an employer's discretion, and you are required to acknowledge this as a condition of use. If you generate or use any AI-Generated Content on Indeed, you assume full legal responsibility for it. Indeed provides the platform with no warranties and limits its total liability to what you paid in the prior 12 months. You are bound to resolve disputes individually through arbitration unless you send a written opt-out notice to Indeed within 30 days of first accepting Terms that include the Arbitration Agreement — that is the one time-limited action available to you.
