Terms of Use

1. Beta Program

1.1 Beta Access

The Services are currently offered as a beta program (“Beta”). Beta access is provided at no cost and may be limited, modified, or discontinued at any time without notice. We may invite or remove participants at our sole discretion.

1.2 Beta Limitations

The Services are under active development. During the Beta period, you acknowledge and agree that:

1. (a) Features, scoring algorithms, assessment content, and the user interface may change without notice;
2. (b) The Services may contain bugs, errors, or inaccuracies;
3. (c) Availability is not guaranteed — we may experience downtime, data loss, or service interruptions;
4. (d) Compatibility scores, workstyle profiles, and any other outputs generated by the Services are provided for informational purposes only and should not be the sole basis for any hiring, employment, or personnel decision; and
5. (e) We reserve the right to modify, reset, or delete any data — including assessment responses, profiles, and compatibility results — at any time, including upon transition from Beta to general availability.

1.3 Feedback

We welcome and encourage feedback about the Services during the Beta. If you provide suggestions, ideas, bug reports, or other feedback (“Feedback”), you grant Company a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, modify, and incorporate such Feedback into the Services without obligation to you. You agree not to submit Feedback that you consider confidential or proprietary.

2. Accounts

2.1 Registration

To use the Services, you must create an account (“Account”) and provide accurate registration information. You agree to keep this information current. You may delete your Account at any time through the Site or by contacting us.

2.2 Account Security

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity under your Account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to your Account. We are not liable for any loss arising from your failure to protect your Account credentials.

2.3 Invitations

Certain features allow you to invite others to the Services (for example, to complete an assessment for a workstyle comparison). When you invite someone, you represent that you have a legitimate professional or personal reason for the invitation and that the invitee would reasonably expect to receive it. You may not use the invitation feature to send unsolicited or bulk communications.

3. The Services

3.1 What We Provide

The Services include workstyle assessments, individual workstyle profiles, peer comparison reports, and — when available — compatibility scoring for hiring and team contexts. The Services use automated systems to process your assessment responses and generate profiles, scores, and narrative descriptions of workstyle patterns. These outputs are generated programmatically and are not reviewed by a human before delivery.

3.2 Not Employment Advice

The Services provide informational data points about interpersonal work preferences. The Services do not make hiring decisions, provide employment recommendations, or guarantee job performance outcomes. Compatibility scores reflect statistical patterns in workstyle preferences; they do not predict success, measure competence, or assess protected characteristics. Hiring managers and organizations are solely responsible for their own hiring and employment decisions and for compliance with all applicable employment laws.

3.3 License to Use

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Services for your own internal business or personal purposes. This license does not include the right to:

1. (a) License, sell, rent, lease, or commercially redistribute the Services or any content displayed therein;
2. (b) Modify, create derivative works from, reverse engineer, or disassemble any part of the Services;
3. (c) Access the Services to build a competing product or service;
4. (d) Use automated tools (bots, scrapers, crawlers) to access or extract data from the Services, except that operators of public search engines may use spiders solely to create publicly available searchable indices, subject to our robots.txt file; or
5. (e) Copy, reproduce, or redistribute any content from the Services except as expressly permitted.

3.4 Modification and Availability

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Services (in whole or in part) at any time without notice. We have no obligation to provide support, maintenance, updates, or error corrections.

3.5 Intellectual Property

The Services and all related intellectual property — including software, algorithms, scoring methods, assessment content, visual design, and trademarks — are owned by Company or its licensors. These Terms do not transfer any intellectual property rights to you. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

4. Your Data

4.1 Information You Provide

When you use the Services, you may provide or we may collect the following categories of information:

1. (a) Account Information: Name, email address, and any optional profile details you provide at registration or in your settings.
2. (b) Assessment Data: Your responses to assessment questions, response timing data, and associated validity indicators. This data is collected during the workstyle assessment and is used to compute your workstyle profile.
3. (c) Comparison Data: When you participate in a peer comparison or apply to a job, your assessment data is compared against another individual's data to generate compatibility outputs.
4. (d) Application Data: If you apply to a job through the Services, information you submit as part of the application — including your name, email, optional biography, resume, and links.
5. (e) Usage Data: Information generated by your interaction with the Services, including pages viewed, features used, device and browser information, IP address, and access timestamps.

4.2 How We Use Your Data

We use the information described in Section 4.1 to:

1. (a) Provide, operate, and improve the Services — including generating your workstyle profile, computing compatibility scores, and delivering comparison reports;
2. (b) Process your assessment responses through automated scoring and narrative generation systems;
3. (c) Communicate with you about the Services, including account notifications and Beta updates;
4. (d) Monitor and enforce compliance with these Terms; and
5. (e) Protect the security and integrity of the Services.

4.3 Automated Processing

4.4 Research and Improvement

We may use anonymized, aggregated, or de-identified data derived from assessment responses and usage patterns to:

1. (a) Improve the accuracy and reliability of our assessment instruments and scoring algorithms;
2. (b) Conduct internal research on workstyle compatibility and workplace dynamics;
3. (c) Generate aggregate statistical reports (for example, benchmarks or trend analyses) that do not identify any individual; and
4. (d) Publish or present findings based on aggregated data in academic, industry, or marketing contexts.

We will not re-identify de-identified data or sell your personally identifiable assessment data to third parties.

4.5 Sharing Your Data

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information in the following circumstances:

1. (a) Comparison Partners: When you participate in a peer comparison, your workstyle profile data is shared with the other participant to generate the comparison report. Both parties see the results.
2. (b) Hiring Context: If you apply to a job through the Services, the hiring organization and its authorized users will see your application data, workstyle profile, and compatibility scores relevant to that role.
3. (c) Service Providers: We use third-party services to host, operate, and support the Services (for example, cloud hosting, email delivery, and analytics). These providers access your data only as necessary to perform services on our behalf and are contractually obligated to protect it.
4. (d) Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
5. (e) Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your data may be transferred as part of the transaction. We will notify you of any such transfer.

4.6 Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your Account is active or as needed to provide the Services. If you delete your Account, we will delete or de-identify your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law or necessary for legitimate business purposes (such as resolving disputes or enforcing these Terms). Anonymized and aggregated data described in Section 4.4 may be retained indefinitely.

4.7 Beta Data

Upon transition from Beta to general availability, we reserve the right to reset or delete all Beta data, including assessment responses, workstyle profiles, compatibility scores, and comparison reports. If we exercise this right, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you in advance so you may export or save any information you wish to retain. After a data reset, you may need to retake the assessment to continue using the Services.

4.8 Your Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data by contacting us at privacy@mauralink.com. We will respond to such requests within 30 days. Certain data may be retained as described in Section 4.6.

4.9 Security

We implement commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

4.10 Children

The Services are not directed to individuals under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn that we have collected data from a child under 18, we will delete it promptly.
