Instaploy may also assign labels or badges to Job Seeker profiles, such as “Responsive Candidate” or “New Applicant.” These labels are determined solely based on the Job Seeker’s activity on Instaploy.

2.5. Screening Tools

2.5.1. License and Use of Screening Tools

• Data protection or privacy laws

You further agree that an assessment is designed to evaluate specific knowledge, skills, or abilities and does not determine a Job Seeker’s overall qualification for a job or their ability to perform it safely.

2.5.3. Job-Related Criteria and Disability Accommodations

You are responsible for using assessments in combination with other selection processes to measure only those characteristics that are job-related and necessary for the candidate’s first day on the job. This includes ensuring that:
• Your selection criteria are job-related.

If you activate this feature, you must interact with the Job Seeker through a tool provided by Instaploy to prevent a rejection notice from being sent. Any direct interactions with a Job Seeker outside of Instaploy’s tools, such as phone calls or emails, will not prevent an Employer Assist rejection notice from being sent.

Instaploy reserves the right to enable or disable these communication options for select Employers or Job Listings at its sole discretion, and to notify Job Seekers that such options are available. Please note that since these services depend on third-party providers, there may be technical delays or errors for which Instaploy does not guarantee error-free performance.

2.6.3. Masked Contact Information

Instaploy may mask or hide contact information, such as phone numbers and email addresses, and substitute them with an alias. For example, a Job Seeker may see an alias email address or phone number when communicating with you.

Any opinions, facts, advice, information, or statements contained within User Content are solely the responsibility of the original author, who may use anonymous identifiers. You may encounter content that you find harmful, offensive, threatening, indecent, or otherwise objectionable. User Content may not be reliable or suitable for legal proceedings.

4.2.1. Content Moderation

If you choose to provide User Content, it must comply with the Site Rules, Instaploy’s policies, and Instaploy’s Terms of Service. These guidelines include, but are not limited to, the following: Your User Content must not be unlawful, fraudulent, discriminatory, threatening, abusive, obscene, or otherwise inappropriate, irrelevant, or unconstructive. It must not contain sexual, ethnic, racial, or other discriminatory slurs. It must not include proprietary information, trade secrets, intellectual property of others, or confidential information. Your User Content must not include spam, advertisements, solicitations, chain letters, pyramid schemes, investment opportunities, or any other commercial communications, except for Job Ads as permitted under this Agreement. Your content should not cause harm to anyone, especially minors.
Job postings must meet specific criteria to be visible on the Site, including offering real job opportunities (not training programs, expired positions, etc.), providing a detailed and accurate job description, and being free of vulgar or illicit content.
You are prohibited from posting official identification information, such as social security numbers, passport numbers, national identification numbers, insurance numbers, driver’s license numbers, immigration numbers, or any other similar codes or identifiers, as well as background check information.

Additionally, you may not post highly confidential personal information, such as medical or health records, or any other categories of personal data subject to data breach notification requirements in any country.
When submitting a company review or providing information, ratings, or answering questions about your current or former employer, you agree that this User Content may be displayed publicly on or through the Site and may include your job title, location, employment status (current or former), and the date of your submission. Instaploy assumes no responsibility and disclaims all liability for such User Content, including any content that may personally identify you. If you do not wish your User Content to be publicly visible or to personally identify you, do not submit it.
Instaploy may monitor and review User Content to prevent potentially illegal or harmful activities or any activities that could negatively impact other users. If Instaploy determines that your User Content or actions violate our Terms, policies, or are detrimental to other users, restrictions may be placed on your account and any accounts suspected of being associated with you. If you believe that any User Content violates this Agreement or our policies, please contact Instaploy. However, detection methods are not foolproof, and false positives or negatives may occur. Instaploy is under no obligation to monitor specific users or User Content and does not guarantee the removal of any particular User Content.

4.2.2. Disclosure and Legal Obligations

Instaploy reserves the right to disclose all User Content, along with relevant information and circumstances, to third parties in connection with the operation of the Site, to protect itself, its affiliates, partners, and visitors, or to comply with legal obligations or government requests.

4.15. Claims of Infringement

4.15.1 U.S. Copyright Infringement:

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials hosted by Instaploy infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material be removed, or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information as required by 17 USC § 512(c)(3)(A):
• (a) A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;
• (b) Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works);
• (c) Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow Instaploy to locate the material on the site;
• (d) The name, address, telephone number, and email address (if available) of the complaining party;
• (e) A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
• (f) A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send Instaploy a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA. For more details, see the U.S. Copyright Office website.
Notices and counter-notices related to the Site should be sent in writing to:
Instaploy Inc 11631 Victory Blvd, North Hollywood, CA 91606, Ste# 201 And via Email: to [email protected]
