The updated terms state that Indeed may automatically draft job application content based on job seeker profile information and preferences. The drafted content may be AI-generated and subject to Indeed's AI-Generated Content Terms in Section D.9 of the General Terms. The agreement continues to establish that job seekers remain responsible for reviewing, correcting, editing, or deleting any drafted applications or application content before submission. You should review any AI-drafted content carefully to ensure it accurately reflects your qualifications and preferences before adopting and submitting applications.
View change record →The updated terms establish new explicit tax obligations for users. Indeed now states it will calculate and bill applicable taxes based on user location or linked employer location, and users are responsible for any applicable taxes, duties, or levies. Additionally, the terms now state that reducing or canceling sponsored ad budgets will result in loss of access to premium features exclusive to higher budget plans. Previously, the agreement described auto-apply activity as a pricing factor; this reference has been removed from the pricing methodology section.
