Permitted Use of Candidate Discovery
Last updated July 29, 2026
How employers may and may not use Swipejobs candidate discovery. Swipejobs is not a consumer reporting agency and this information is not a consumer report.
Our candidate discovery functionality ("Candidate Discovery" or "AI Talent Platform") helps employers find and contact potentially relevant professionals using publicly available professional information. It surfaces people. It does not score, rate, or evaluate anyone, and it does not make decisions about candidates.
Swipejobs is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and the information we provide through this product is not a consumer report. It has not been assembled or evaluated for the purpose of determining anyone's eligibility for anything.
You may not use it, in whole or in part, to determine eligibility for:
- employment, promotion, retention, or reassignment
- credit or insurance
- housing or tenancy
- any other purpose covered by the FCRA or by any similar state law
You may not use it as a substitute for a background check or a reference check. Where you need to make an eligibility decision, use a consumer reporting agency that complies with the FCRA. Equivalent restrictions in other markets are handled through the Terms and Conditions and the Privacy Policy.
Customers certify at sign-up that they will comply with this policy. We may suspend or terminate access where we have reason to believe it is being breached.
What this policy does not cover
This policy covers our AI Talent Platform product. It does not cover background checks carried out during Talent onboarding on the Swipejobs platform. Those are run through screening providers under their own FCRA-compliant processes, with the consent and disclosures the law requires, and are described in our Privacy Policy.
If your information appears in our search results
You can remove yourself at any time, permanently and without giving a reason, through our Privacy Center. You can also ask us what we hold about you, correct it, or have it deleted.
