Terms of Service

These Terms describe the rules for using SearchTalent. They form a living document and may expand as the product grows.

Last updated: June 13, 2026Legal hub

Using the platform

SearchTalent lets people create accounts, publish profiles and projects, write articles, run and answer polls, comment, react, vote, follow others, and explore public work across the community.

By using the service, you agree to use it lawfully, respectfully, and in a way that does not harm the platform or other users.

Do not impersonate another person or organization.
Do not upload or publish content you do not have the rights to use.
Do not try to disrupt the service, bypass restrictions, or access data that is not yours.

Accounts and content

You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you publish in your account, profile, projects, articles, polls, and comments.

You keep ownership of your content, but you allow SearchTalent to store, display, and process it so the service can work as intended.

Community conduct

SearchTalent includes community features such as comments, reactions, votes, follows, and a public rating and leaderboard.

Use them in good faith. Harassment, hate speech, spam, and attempts to manipulate ratings, votes, or rankings — for example through fake accounts or coordinated voting — are not allowed.

AI features

Some optional features use AI to help you draft or summarize content. The content you provide is processed by a third-party AI provider, as described in the Privacy Policy.

You are responsible for reviewing AI-assisted output before you publish it and for ensuring the content you share complies with these Terms.

Moderation and access

Content may be reviewed by automated and manual moderation. We may place content under review, remove it, or restrict access to the platform if material is illegal, abusive, misleading, or clearly unsafe for the product and its users.

We may also update or discontinue features as the project evolves.

Deleting your account

You can delete your account at any time from your profile settings, confirmed with a code sent to your email.

You choose how deletion happens: full erasure removes your profile, projects, articles, comments, and related data; or you can keep your articles and comments as anonymous content attributed to a deleted user while the rest of your account is removed. Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone.

Future changes

Because SearchTalent may grow from an academic project into a production platform, these Terms may be updated to reflect new functionality, billing, moderation, or business requirements.

If major changes happen, the updated version will be published on this page with a new date.
