Kengroo
Terms · Effective September 9, 2026

Terms of Use

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of kengroo.com and related Kengroo products and services (collectively, the "Services").

By accessing or using the Services, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

1. About Kengroo

Kengroo operates a curated technical talent network intended to help professionals and companies discover potential professional relationships, opportunities, projects, and engagements.

Kengroo may use software, artificial intelligence, and human review to understand professional profiles, company requirements, and potential matches.

Kengroo is currently an early-access service and is not currently operated by a separate entity named "Kengroo LLC." References in these Terms to "Kengroo," "we," "our," or "us" refer to the operator of the Kengroo Services.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into these Terms to use Kengroo.

If you use Kengroo on behalf of a company or another organization, you represent that you have authority to act on its behalf.

3. Early Access

Kengroo is currently in early access.

Features, functionality, matching processes, eligibility requirements, and availability may change as the Services develop. We may add, modify, restrict, suspend, or discontinue features at any time.

Participation in early access does not guarantee continued access to Kengroo or any particular feature.

4. Accounts and Information

You agree to provide substantially accurate information and to keep important account and professional information reasonably current.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for activity conducted through your account.

You may not impersonate another person or organization or knowingly provide materially false information.

5. Talent Profiles

Professionals may provide information regarding their:

  • Professional experience
  • Skills and capabilities
  • Education
  • Career interests
  • Availability
  • Engagement preferences
  • Compensation expectations
  • Professional profiles
  • Other relevant professional information

You represent that you have the right to provide information and materials submitted to Kengroo.

Kengroo currently builds your profile primarily from the résumé you upload. Any GitHub, portfolio, personal website, LinkedIn, or similar links you add are stored as reference citations for admin and employer review — Kengroo does not currently fetch or parse the content of those pages. Kengroo may use automated systems to organize, summarize, classify, or infer information from your résumé and the details you provide directly.

AI-generated profile information may be inaccurate or incomplete. You are responsible for reviewing and correcting information where Kengroo provides the ability to do so.

6. Company Requests

Companies may use Kengroo to describe roles, projects, technical capabilities, professional expertise, or other needs.

Companies represent that submitted opportunities are legitimate and that they have authority to submit them.

Companies may not use Kengroo to:

  • Submit fraudulent or misleading opportunities
  • Harvest personal information
  • Send unsolicited bulk communications
  • Engage in unlawful discrimination
  • Circumvent applicable employment laws
  • Conduct unlawful surveillance
  • Obtain personal information for purposes unrelated to legitimate professional opportunities

7. Matching and Introductions

Kengroo may identify, recommend, or facilitate potential matches between professionals and companies.

Kengroo may use automated systems and human judgment as part of this process.

A match, ranking, recommendation, or introduction does not constitute an endorsement, verification, warranty, or guarantee regarding any professional, company, opportunity, qualification, or outcome.

Kengroo does not guarantee:

  • Employment
  • Engagements
  • Interviews
  • Introductions
  • Candidates
  • Candidate availability
  • Qualifications
  • Compensation
  • Performance
  • Company suitability
  • Any particular outcome

Professionals and companies are responsible for conducting their own evaluation and due diligence before entering into any relationship.

8. Artificial Intelligence

Kengroo may use artificial intelligence and automated systems to:

  • Analyze and structure professional information
  • Generate or enrich profiles
  • Interpret company requirements
  • Identify skills and capabilities
  • Identify potential matches
  • Rank or recommend potential matches
  • Assist human curation

AI-generated information can be inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated.

You should not rely solely on an AI-generated recommendation when making significant employment, contractual, financial, or legal decisions.

9. Introductions and Profile Privacy

Talent profiles are not publicly searchable by name through Kengroo.

Kengroo may internally analyze profile information to identify potential opportunities.

By joining the talent network and having your profile published, you authorize Kengroo to identify and facilitate introductions with companies we curate as a potential fit. Kengroo will not publicly disclose your identity — your name and contact details are only shared with a specific company as part of a specific introduction Kengroo facilitates.

10. Relationships Between Users

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, Kengroo is not the employer, employee, staffing employer, contractor, agent, partner, or joint venturer of users introduced through the Services.

Kengroo is not ordinarily a party to employment, consulting, contractor, advisory, or other agreements entered into between users.

Users are responsible for determining and complying with applicable requirements concerning:

  • Employment and contractor classification
  • Compensation
  • Taxes
  • Insurance
  • Licenses
  • Work authorization and immigration
  • Employment laws
  • Contractual terms
  • Workplace requirements

11. Background Checks and Employment Screening

Kengroo is not intended to provide consumer reports or regulated background-screening services under the Fair Credit Reporting Act or similar laws.

You may not use Kengroo as a substitute for legally required background checks or employment-screening procedures.

Companies are responsible for conducting appropriate verification, due diligence, and legally compliant screening.

12. Non-Discrimination

Users must comply with applicable employment and anti-discrimination laws.

Kengroo may restrict or remove users, opportunities, or content that we reasonably believe violates applicable law, these Terms, or the integrity of the Services.

13. Your Content

You retain ownership of content and information you submit to Kengroo.

You grant Kengroo a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, process, analyze, organize, format, and display that content as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, improve, and provide the Services.

This license does not give Kengroo ownership of your professional information.

14. Kengroo Intellectual Property

Kengroo's website, software, designs, branding, logos, interfaces, algorithms, documentation, and other materials are owned by Kengroo or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

Except for rights expressly granted by these Terms, no rights in Kengroo intellectual property are granted to you.

15. Acceptable Use

  • Use the Services unlawfully
  • Scrape or systematically extract Kengroo data without authorization
  • Harvest user information

  • Create fraudulent opportunities or profiles

16. Third-Party Services

Kengroo may integrate with or link to third-party websites or services.

Kengroo does not control and is not responsible for third-party services, content, availability, security, terms, or privacy practices.

17. Fees

Kengroo may offer some Services without charge during early access.

Kengroo may introduce fees for certain Services in the future.

For employers, placement fees are governed by our Employer Terms, disclosed and agreed to separately before a paid service applies. Other commercial terms will similarly be disclosed before you agree to the applicable paid service.

Your use of free early-access Services does not obligate you to purchase future paid Services.

18. Suspension and Termination

You may stop using Kengroo at any time.

Kengroo may restrict, suspend, or terminate access if we reasonably believe a user has:

  • Violated these Terms
  • Used the Services unlawfully
  • Engaged in fraud or abuse
  • Created a security risk
  • Created a material risk to another user or Kengroo

We may also discontinue the Services.

19. Disclaimer

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE."

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, KENGROO DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE.

KENGROO DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OR THAT PROFILES, MATCHES, RECOMMENDATIONS, AI-GENERATED INFORMATION, OR OTHER INFORMATION PROVIDED THROUGH THE SERVICES WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE.

20. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, KENGROO WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, BUSINESS, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, KENGROO'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF:

  • (A) $100; OR
  • (B) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID KENGROO DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

Some jurisdictions do not permit certain exclusions or limitations, so some of these limitations may not apply to you.

21. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Kengroo and those operating the Services from claims, liabilities, damages, and reasonable expenses arising from your misuse of the Services, violation of these Terms, violation of applicable law, or infringement of another person's rights.

22. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.

Any dispute not otherwise resolved between the parties will be subject to the jurisdiction of the appropriate state or federal courts in California, subject to applicable law.

23. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms as Kengroo evolves.

If we make material changes, we will update the effective date and provide additional notice where required.

Your continued use of the Services after revised Terms become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms where permitted by law.
