For candidates
Use accurate information, protect confidential materials, follow assessment rules, and understand that opportunities are never guaranteed.
These terms set the baseline for Rounds accounts, recruiting workflows, assessments, content, and marketplace activity. An order form or role-specific agreement may add to them.
Use accurate information, protect confidential materials, follow assessment rules, and understand that opportunities are never guaranteed.
Your team owns its hiring decisions, candidate notices, lawful instructions, accommodations, and authorized use of the platform.
Submit candidates only with authority, respect outreach rules and confidentiality, and follow the marketplace agreement that applies to placements.
01 / Agreement
By accessing or using Rounds, you agree to these Platform Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you use Rounds for an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind it. An order form, data processing agreement, recruiter agreement, or other signed agreement controls if it expressly conflicts with these terms.
You must be at least 16 and legally able to enter this agreement. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you need permission from a parent or legal guardian. Keep account credentials confidential, use accurate registration information, and promptly report suspected unauthorized access. You are responsible for activity under your account except to the extent caused by Rounds.
02 / Service
Rounds provides software and services for talent discovery, recruiting, referrals, profiles, assessments, interviews, scheduling, messaging, and related operations. Features can change as the product develops.
No employment guarantee
Users are independent from Rounds. Companies control their openings and hiring decisions; candidates control whether to pursue opportunities; and independent recruiters are responsible for their own conduct, representations, licenses, taxes, and legal obligations.
03 / Conduct
All users must comply with law, these terms, and posted workflow rules. In particular, you may not:
Companies and recruiters must have a lawful basis and required notices or consents before submitting candidate information. They are responsible for access permissions, hiring criteria, accommodations, recordkeeping, and decisions made from platform outputs.
04 / AI
Rounds may provide AI-assisted matching, summaries, scores, recommendations, generated materials, or integrity signals. These are probabilistic tools, can be incomplete or wrong, and are not professional advice. Do not use them as the sole basis for a decision that has a legal or similarly significant effect on a person.
The organization making a hiring decision must review relevant context, provide notices and accommodations, test tools where required, address potential bias, and offer human review or an appeal when applicable law requires it. Users must not use Rounds to make unlawful discriminatory decisions or infer highly sensitive traits for an unauthorized purpose.
05 / Ownership
You retain ownership of content you submit. You grant Rounds a limited, worldwide license to host, copy, format, transmit, display, and otherwise process that content only to operate, secure, support, and improve the service; comply with your instructions and settings; and meet legal obligations. This license ends when the content is deleted, subject to lawful retention and technical backup cycles.
Rounds and its licensors own the service, software, design, documentation, and aggregated or de-identified insights that do not identify a person or customer. If you provide feedback, Rounds may use it without a duty to compensate you, but this does not transfer ownership of your other content. Public visibility occurs only through a feature or setting that indicates sharing; submitted content is not automatically public.
06 / Commercial terms
We send service messages needed to operate your account. Marketing messages are subject to your preferences. Consent to promotional text messages is not a condition of purchase, and you can use the stated opt-out method. Carrier rates may apply.
A recording feature must be disclosed before recording. Users are responsible for obtaining any consent required by the locations and people involved. Do not secretly record or upload a conversation.
Fees, billing intervals, recruiter payments, refund rules, and taxes are governed by the applicable order form, checkout, or role-specific agreement. Except where law or that agreement says otherwise, paid fees are non-refundable and you authorize collection of amounts due.
07 / Enforcement
You may stop using Rounds at any time and can request account closure through the Privacy center. We may remove content or restrict, suspend, or terminate access when reasonably necessary to address a material breach, security or legal risk, nonpayment, fraud, harm to another user, or discontinuation of a service. When practical and lawful, we will give notice and an opportunity to cure.
Provisions that by their nature should survive—such as accrued payment obligations, confidentiality, ownership, disclaimers, liability limits, indemnity, and dispute terms—continue after termination.
08 / Risk allocation
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the service is provided “as is” and “as available.” Rounds disclaims implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We do not warrant uninterrupted operation, error-free outputs, or the accuracy or conduct of users and third parties. Non-waivable legal rights still apply.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, or consequential damages, or lost profits, revenues, goodwill, or data. Rounds’ aggregate liability arising from the service will not exceed the greater of US$100 or the amount paid to Rounds for the affected service during the 12 months before the event. These limits do not apply where prohibited by law.
An organization, recruiter, or business user will defend and indemnify Rounds from third-party claims caused by its unlawful content, hiring or outreach practices, infringement, or material breach of these terms. Rounds will provide prompt notice and reasonable cooperation, and the indemnifying party may not settle a claim in a way that admits fault or imposes obligations on Rounds without consent.
09 / Legal
Unless a signed agreement says otherwise, Georgia law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and disputes must be brought in the state or federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia. Each party consents to those courts. Applicable consumer law may give you rights to bring a dispute elsewhere.
We may update these terms to reflect service, risk, or legal changes. We will post the new version and effective date and provide additional notice for material changes when required. Changes apply prospectively; if you do not accept them, stop using the affected service before they take effect.
These terms, together with incorporated and signed agreements, are the entire agreement for their subject matter. Failure to enforce a term is not a waiver. Invalid provisions are limited only as needed, and the remainder stays effective. You may not assign this agreement without consent; Rounds may assign it in connection with a reorganization, financing, or sale of the business.
