Policy 02 / Terms
Use Radar like a good signal.
These terms set the ground rules for using Early Career Radar. They are written for job seekers, not a room full of lawyers.
Effective
Agreement
These Terms of Service are an agreement between you and Early Career Radar, an independent project operated by Yu Huang. By accessing or using Radar, you agree to these terms and the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
You must be at least 13 years old. If you are not old enough to form a binding agreement where you live, a parent or legal guardian must agree on your behalf.
What Radar provides
Radar discovers public job listings, organizes them, links to the original employer source, and lets you save roles, track applications, keep private notes, and request alerts. Radar is not an employer, recruiter, staffing agency, school, or representative of any company shown on the site.
Radar does not provide legal, immigration, financial, career, or hiring advice and does not promise an interview, offer, response, sponsorship outcome, or employment result.
Listings and applications
Listings can change, close, contain errors, or differ from the source. Always verify deadlines, eligibility, location, compensation, sponsorship, and other requirements on the employer’s page before relying on them. An appearance on Radar is not an endorsement.
Applications happen on third-party sites under their own terms and privacy policies. Radar is not part of the employer’s selection process and is not responsible for decisions, communications, offers, scams, or losses arising from an external listing or site. Never pay someone who claims Radar guarantees access to a job.
Accounts and security
You may use core tracking features without an account. If you connect one, provide an email you are authorized to use and keep access to that email or Google account secure. You are responsible for activity under your session and should sign out on shared devices.
Do not impersonate another person, attempt to take over an account, or bypass authentication and security controls. Tell Radar through Contact or Feedback if you believe an account or session has been compromised.
Your information and feedback
You retain your rights in notes, recruiter details, feedback, and other content you submit. You give Radar a limited permission to host, process, reproduce, and transmit that content only as needed to operate, secure, and improve the service or respond to your request.
You are responsible for what you enter. Do not upload confidential employer materials, government identifiers, financial details, health information, passwords, or content that violates another person’s rights. Product suggestions may be used to improve Radar without an obligation to compensate you.
Acceptable use
You may not:
- use Radar unlawfully or to harm, harass, deceive, or exploit others;
- interfere with the service, overload it, or evade rate limits;
- probe for vulnerabilities or access data that is not yours;
- introduce malware or malicious code;
- misrepresent Radar data as an employer’s official statement; or
- use automated access in a way that disrupts Radar or violates law.
Radar may limit or suspend access needed to protect users, data, the service, or third parties.
Alerts and communications
Alerts are optional and begin only after you choose them. They may be delayed, filtered, duplicated, or unavailable, so do not rely on an alert as the only way to learn about a deadline. You can unsubscribe from alerts at any time. Radar may still send transactional messages you request, such as sign-in codes and responses to support requests.
Ownership
Radar’s software, design, written material, and brand are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Employer names, logos, listings, and linked materials belong to their respective owners. These terms do not transfer ownership of either group of work.
You may use Radar for personal job-search purposes. You may link to public pages, but may not copy the service or use its branding in a way that suggests sponsorship or affiliation.
Changes and availability
Radar may add, change, suspend, or discontinue features and may remove inaccurate, closed, unsafe, or inappropriate content. The service may be interrupted for maintenance, provider failures, security events, or reasons outside Radar’s control. When practical, material changes affecting users will be communicated on the site.
Disclaimers
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Radar is provided “as is” and “as available.” Radar disclaims implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, and availability. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers, so parts of this section may not apply.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Early Career Radar and its operator will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost data, opportunities, profits, or goodwill arising from the service or an external listing. Radar’s total liability for claims relating to the service will not exceed the greater of $100 or the amount you paid Radar in the 12 months before the claim.
These limits do not exclude liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Before filing a formal claim, you and Radar agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve the issue through Contact. Nothing here prevents either side from seeking relief in small-claims court or exercising rights that cannot be waived under applicable law.
Changes and contact
Radar may update these terms as the service changes. Material updates will be posted here with a new effective date and, when appropriate, an additional notice. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised terms. Questions can be sent through Contact on the homepage or Feedback on either job board.
