Terms of Service

Effective Date: June 15, 2026

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the ApplyBoldly websites, product applications, and related services operated by ApplyBoldly LLC, a California company doing business as ApplyBoldly ("ApplyBoldly," "we," "us," or "our").

ApplyBoldly is a career coaching and job-search productivity platform. Our services may include account management, document uploads, AI-assisted drafting and coaching, job-search organization tools, subscription billing, and related support features (collectively, the "Services").

By creating an account, clicking to accept these Terms, or otherwise using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, you may not use the Services.

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose personal information. If the published privacy-policy URL changes, the then-current privacy-policy location will apply.

1. Eligibility and Account Registration

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of legal majority where you live, to use the Services.

You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when creating and maintaining your account. You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You may not share your account with another person or allow another person to access the Services using your credentials.

If you use the Services on behalf of a company or other organization, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

2. What the Services Do

ApplyBoldly helps users organize job-search information and generate or refine materials such as resumes, cover letters, notes, and coaching conversations. The Services may use artificial intelligence and third-party providers to generate outputs, suggestions, summaries, or other assistance.

The Services are tools to support your own judgment and decision-making. They are not a substitute for professional legal, tax, immigration, medical, mental-health, or employment-law advice.

We do not guarantee:

  • interviews, offers, employment, compensation, or any other career outcome
  • that any output will be accurate, complete, current, or fit for your particular purpose
  • uninterrupted or error-free operation of the Services

3. Acceptable Use

Subject to these Terms, you may access and use the Services for your personal or internal business use.

You may not, and may not assist or allow others to:

  • use the Services in violation of any law, regulation, or third-party right
  • upload, submit, or share content that you do not have the right to use
  • use the Services to defame, harass, discriminate against, stalk, or harm another person
  • use the Services to impersonate a person, fabricate references, falsify identity, or materially misrepresent your qualifications, employment history, education, or experience
  • use the Services to generate or distribute spam, malware, phishing content, or other harmful material
  • reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, copy, reproduce, frame, mirror, or create derivative works from the Services, except to the extent applicable law prohibits that restriction
  • scrape, harvest, automatically extract, or programmatically access the Services or output at scale except through any expressly authorized interface we provide
  • interfere with or disrupt the Services, including by bypassing rate limits, access restrictions, or security controls
  • use the Services, outputs, or underlying systems to develop, train, benchmark, or improve a competing AI, drafting, coaching, recruiting, or job-search product or model
  • represent AI-generated output as human-generated if doing so would be deceptive or unlawful

We may publish additional product rules, usage limits, or feature-specific policies from time to time. Those rules become part of these Terms when posted in the Services or otherwise made available to you.

4. User Content

You may submit or upload text, files, prompts, documents, job descriptions, resumes, notes, and other materials to the Services ("Input"). The Services may generate responses, summaries, drafts, suggestions, or other materials based on your Input ("Output"). Input and Output together are "Content."

You are solely responsible for your Content, including for ensuring that:

  • you have all rights, permissions, and legal bases needed to provide the Input
  • the Input does not violate any law, contract, confidentiality duty, or third-party right
  • any Output you use or share is reviewed by a human and is appropriate for your purpose

You remain solely responsible for anything you submit to employers, recruiters, interviewers, or other third parties, including the truthfulness and accuracy of those submissions.

5. Ownership

As between you and ApplyBoldly:

  • you retain ownership of your Input
  • subject to applicable law and third-party rights, you own the specific Output generated for you based on your Input
  • ApplyBoldly retains ownership of the Services, including all software, models, prompts, templates, workflows, interfaces, branding, design elements, and other intellectual property in and to the Services

If any rights in Output do not automatically vest in you, we assign to you any rights we may have in that Output to the extent permitted by law and subject to these Terms.

Because artificial intelligence systems can produce similar results for different users, Output may not be unique. These Terms do not give you any rights in output generated for other users or in third-party materials included in or referenced by the Services.

6. How We Use Content

We may use Content to:

  • provide, operate, maintain, and secure the Services
  • troubleshoot, debug, monitor, and improve product functionality
  • investigate misuse, fraud, abuse, or security incidents
  • enforce these Terms and our policies
  • comply with legal obligations

Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy. If we materially change how we use personal information or user content, we will update the Privacy Policy and provide any notice required by applicable law.

7. AI Features and Output Risks

You acknowledge and agree that:

  • AI-generated output may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, biased, or inappropriate
  • output may include mistakes about people, companies, roles, laws, facts, or other real-world information
  • output may not be unique and may be similar to content generated for other users
  • you must evaluate output before relying on it or sharing it

You must not rely on the Services as the sole source of truth for any important decision. In particular, you should not use output as the sole basis for legal, immigration, tax, medical, hiring, or employment decisions, or any other decision that could materially affect a person.

If you choose to use AI-generated material in job applications, outreach, or interview preparation, you remain solely responsible for the final content and for any statements made in your name.

8. Third-Party Services

The Services may depend on or interoperate with third-party services, such as payment processors, hosting providers, email providers, authentication providers, analytics tools, advertising measurement providers, document-processing tools, and AI model providers. We may also include links to or content from third-party sources.

Third-party services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services or third-party content, and we do not guarantee their availability, accuracy, or performance.

9. Feedback

If you provide feedback, ideas, suggestions, ratings, or requests regarding the Services, including through in-app feedback controls, you grant ApplyBoldly a worldwide, non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use and exploit that feedback for any lawful purpose without compensation to you.

10. Paid Plans, Trials, and Billing

ApplyBoldly may offer free trials, paid subscriptions, maintenance-mode plans, promotional access, or other plan types. Plan details, feature limits, pricing, renewal timing, and included functionality may be described on the pricing page, checkout flow, account page, or other service materials.

If you purchase a paid subscription:

  • you authorize us and our payment processor to charge your payment method for the applicable fees, taxes, and any recurring renewal charges
  • subscriptions are billed in advance on the monthly or yearly billing cycle you select at the time of purchase
  • recurring subscriptions automatically renew until canceled
  • you must provide and maintain valid and complete billing information
  • fees are non-refundable except as required by law or as expressly stated by us in writing

If payment fails, we may retry payment, suspend access, downgrade your plan, limit paid features, or change your account to a different access state consistent with the then-current product rules.

You can cancel renewal at any time through your account, billing portal, or by contacting support. Canceling a subscription stops future automatic renewal charges only. Canceling does not entitle you to a refund for the current billing period unless required by law or expressly stated by us in writing. Your paid subscription will remain active through the end of the period you already paid for, and access will end on that paid-through date unless you renew again.

If your account enters a lapsed read-only state after access ends, payment fails, or another billing-state change, we may provide limited read-only access for a period under the then-current product rules. Unless you reactivate an eligible paid or trial plan, switch to Maintenance mode, or otherwise restore eligible access before the stated deadline, certain stored materials, including chats, generated drafts, cover letters, study guides, and related workflow artifacts, may be scheduled for deletion after approximately three months of continued lapsed read-only status. We may provide notice through the Services, email, or other reasonable means when this workflow is scheduled.

Deletion under the lapsed read-only retention workflow is different from an account deletion request. It may remove certain stored materials while we retain account, billing, transaction, security, support, privacy-rights request, compliance, and similar records as described in the Privacy Policy or as otherwise permitted by law.

We may change our pricing or plan structure from time to time. If a price change materially affects an active recurring subscription, we will provide advance notice before the change takes effect on your next renewal.

11. Privacy Rights, Export, and Deletion

Depending on your location and the nature of your request, you may have rights regarding access to, export of, correction of, or deletion of your personal information. ApplyBoldly may offer some of these controls through an in-app privacy-rights workflow.

We may retain certain information as required by law, for legitimate business purposes, to complete transactions, to enforce our agreements, to resolve disputes, or to protect the Services and our users.

Deletion of an account or content may be irreversible once processing begins.

12. Suspension, Termination, and Service Changes

You may stop using the Services at any time.

We may suspend, limit, or terminate your access to the Services, remove content, or delete your account if:

  • you violate these Terms or our policies
  • you use the Services in a way that creates legal risk or harm to us, other users, or third parties
  • we are required to do so by law, court order, or request from a governmental authority
  • your use of the Services involves fraud, abuse, nonpayment, or security concerns

We may also modify or discontinue all or part of the Services at any time. Where required by law, or where commercially reasonable for material changes to paid Services, we will provide advance notice.

13. Intellectual Property Rights

All rights, title, and interest in and to the Services, excluding your Content, are owned by ApplyBoldly and its licensors.

You may not use ApplyBoldly's name, logos, trademarks, or branding without our prior written consent, except as expressly permitted by law.

14. Copyright Complaints

If you believe content on the Services infringes your copyright, send a notice to support@applyboldly.com with enough information for us to investigate, including:

  • your name and contact information
  • identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed
  • identification of the allegedly infringing material and its location
  • a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is unauthorized
  • a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner
  • a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or authorized representative

15. Disclaimers

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, APPLYBOLDLY AND ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND SUPPLIERS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND QUIET ENJOYMENT.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT:

  • THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE
  • ANY CONTENT OR OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, RELIABLE, OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PURPOSE
  • ANY DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED
  • THE SERVICES OR SERVERS ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS

YOU USE THE SERVICES, AND ANY OUTPUT FROM THE SERVICES, AT YOUR OWN RISK.

16. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, APPLYBOLDLY AND ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, GOODWILL, DATA, OR USE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, APPLYBOLDLY'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF:

  • THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO APPLYBOLDLY FOR THE SERVICES GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY, OR
  • $100 USD

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN DISCLAIMERS OR LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN THAT CASE, THE LIMITATIONS ABOVE APPLY ONLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

17. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by law, if you use the Services on behalf of a business or organization, or if your misuse of the Services causes a third-party claim, you will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless ApplyBoldly and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, contractors, licensors, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or related to:

  • your Content
  • your use of the Services
  • your violation of these Terms
  • your violation of any law or third-party right

18. Disputes; Governing Law; Venue

Before filing a formal legal claim, you and ApplyBoldly agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by sending written notice to the other party. You may send notice to support@applyboldly.com. We may send notice to the email address associated with your account. If the dispute is not resolved within 30 days after notice is received, either party may bring a formal claim.

These Terms are governed by the laws of California, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules.

Except to the extent applicable law requires otherwise, any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco, CA, and each party consents to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

19. Changes to the Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make a material change, we will post the updated Terms and update the effective date above. When required by law, or when changes materially affect your rights, we will provide additional notice, such as by email or in-product notification.

Your continued use of the Services after the updated Terms take effect means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using the Services.

20. General Terms

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and ApplyBoldly regarding the Services and supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements on the same subject matter, except for any separate written agreement between you and ApplyBoldly.

You may not assign or transfer these Terms, or any rights or obligations under them, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, sale of assets, or by operation of law.

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect to the extent permitted by law.

Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of our right to do so later.

You must comply with all applicable trade, sanctions, and export-control laws. You may not use the Services if you are located in, organized in, or ordinarily resident in a jurisdiction where such use is prohibited, or if you are otherwise prohibited from receiving the Services under applicable law.
