Testing Requirement

Create your Job Seeker and Employer accounts with a +bugbounty to avoid moderation locking your account for suspicious activity. Example: researcher+bugbounty@bugcrowdninja.com

Include bugbounty in the company title you create and do not attempt to misrepresent yourself as a real company.

Where possible, add text bugbounty to requests you are sending to our applications, so our team can identify the traffic being generated as part of your testing.

Respect our users’ privacy.

If during your research you happen to encounter any information about another user or other individual, immediately stop and report this to Indeed. To participate in this program, you only need to explain the technical vulnerability you discovered.

You must avoid any viewing, copying, altering, destroying, or otherwise interacting with any data, in particular data of other individuals, to which you may gain access through this research. If a vulnerability provides unintended access to data, limit the amount of data you access to the minimum required for effectively demonstrating the vulnerability; cease testing, and submit a report immediately if you encounter any user data during testing. This may include Personally Identifiable Information (PII), Personal Healthcare Information (PHI), credit card data, or proprietary information.

Leave the site as you found it.

Do not copy, save, store, transfer, disclose, or otherwise retain any information you find on our site during your research, except to report your research to Indeed.
