When you show a job to people, keep the link to the original job post so they can apply with the employer." "You may not: sell, rent or give away our job data as a dataset, file or feed of its own, use it to build or supply another jobs API or job data service, share your API key or account with people outside your organization, copy, scrape or download the service in ways the API does not offer, reverse engineer the service or test its security without our written permission, overload or harm the service, or use the data for anything illegal, unfair or discriminatory, including spam."
