Expectations, principles, and acceptable behaviors for all partners who interact with Indeed's platform.
Objective:
These Policies & Guidelines outline the expectations, principles, and acceptable behaviors for all partners who interact with Indeed's platform, including but not limited to resellers, third-party service providers, and integration partners (‘Partner(s)’), with the goal of building a successful and productive partnership for all parties. By adhering to these policies and guidelines, both Indeed and its Partners agree to foster a mutually beneficial, respectful, and sustainable partnership while preventing any misuse, abuse, or unauthorized commercialization of Indeed’s products and services. Both Indeed and its Partners retain the right to innovate and develop products, even if there is some overlap. However, Partners are prohibited from exploiting the relationship or leveraging Indeed's investments in employer and job seeker loyalty to gain an unfair competitive advantage or harm Indeed’s business.
