9.5 Candidate Conduct. Job Seekers shall not apply using fake profiles, harass recruiters, misuse employer information, demand money from employers, use abusive language, upload copyrighted content without permission, or impersonate another individual.
10. Employer Terms
Employers represent and warrant that they are legally authorised to recruit, possess authority to publish vacancies, all job postings are genuine, and recruitment complies with applicable labour and employment laws.
10.1 Job Posting Rules. Job advertisements must be accurate, lawful, non-discriminatory except where legally permitted, clearly specify eligibility criteria, and clearly disclose whether positions are permanent, contractual, internship, apprenticeship, freelance, or temporary.

Freelancers acknowledge that they operate independently, are responsible for taxes, determine pricing, and negotiate contracts independently.

Aruday may request Aadhaar (where legally permissible), PAN, Passport, Driving Licence, Voter ID, Employee ID, or business registration documents. Failure to provide requested verification may limit access to certain features.
16. Profile Visibility
Users may choose profile visibility settings where available. However, applying to a job automatically shares relevant profile information with that employer, public profile features may be indexed by search engines unless restricted, and recruiters may discover profiles according to user-selected visibility preferences.
17. Platform Communications
Aruday may facilitate messaging, interview scheduling, notifications, and other communications. Users agree that communications may be monitored for fraud detection, security, abuse prevention, and legal compliance, subject to applicable law. Harassment, threats, abusive language, and spam are prohibited.
18. Fake Jobs & Fraud Prevention
Aruday actively works to detect fraudulent activity but cannot guarantee that every listing or user is genuine. Users should independently verify employer identity, company existence, offer letters, salary promises, interview locations, and payment requests. Never transfer money to secure a job unless you have independently verified the legitimacy of the request. Any suspected fraud should be reported immediately to support@aruday.com.
19. AI-Powered Matching
Aruday may use Artificial Intelligence to recommend jobs, recommend candidates, improve search relevance, analyse resumes, suggest skills, rank profiles, provide interview preparation, generate summaries, and offer career guidance. AI-generated recommendations are based on available information and algorithms and do not guarantee suitability, hiring outcomes, employment, interviews, business success, or any particular result. Users should exercise independent judgment before relying on AI-generated suggestions.
20. Platform Role
Aruday acts solely as a technology platform that facilitates interactions between users. Unless expressly stated otherwise, Aruday is not an employer, an employee, a recruitment agency, a staffing agency, a labour contractor, a payroll provider, a guarantor of user identity, or a party to employment or freelance contracts. All hiring, engagement, contractual, and payment decisions remain the sole responsibility of the parties involved.
