Terms of Service

Lodestar — lodestarjobsearch.io

Effective: August 3, 2026

Last updated: September 26, 2026

These Terms govern your use of Lodestar, operated by Silver Lining Technologies, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Lodestar,” “we,” “us”). By creating an account or using the service, you agree to them. If you don’t, don’t use Lodestar.

1. Who can use Lodestar

You must be at least 18 years old and located in the United States. You must provide accurate account information and keep your credentials secure. You are responsible for activity that occurs under your account.

One account per person. Accounts are not transferable.

2. What Lodestar does

Lodestar is an AI-assisted job-search tool. It parses your résumé, finds and ranks job opportunities, assesses your fit for them, surfaces professional contact information at hiring organizations, and drafts outreach and application materials for you.

Lodestar is a research and drafting tool. It is not an employment agency, a recruiter, a career counselor, or a legal advisor, and it does not act as your agent. We do not submit applications for you, negotiate on your behalf, or communicate with employers on your behalf.

3. AI output — what you should expect

Lodestar’s job matches, fit assessments, and drafted documents are generated by AI systems. They can be incomplete, out of date, or wrong.

You are responsible for reviewing everything before you use it. Verify job details with the employer. Read every drafted document. Confirm that contact information is correct and appropriate before you use it. Nothing Lodestar produces should be sent, submitted, or relied upon without your own review.

We make no guarantee of employment outcomes. We do not promise interviews, responses, offers, or jobs. Fit scores are estimates, not predictions.

4. Contact information and your outreach

Lodestar surfaces professional contact information and drafts outreach for you. You send it. From your own mailbox. Under your own name. Lodestar does not send email to discovered contacts on your behalf.

Because you are the sender, you are responsible for your outreach. You agree that you will:

  • Send only genuine, individual, job-search-related communications.

  • Comply with all applicable laws governing your messages, including the CAN-SPAM Act, and honor any request to stop contacting someone.

  • Not use Lodestar’s contact discovery for bulk messaging, marketing, recruiting, solicitation, harassment, or any purpose unrelated to your own job search.

  • Not scrape, export in bulk, resell, redistribute, or build a database from contact information surfaced through Lodestar.

  • Not use contact information surfaced through Lodestar in any way that violates the terms of the provider it came from (for example, Apollo.io, whose terms are published at www.apollo.io).

Violating this section is grounds for immediate termination.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Upload a résumé or profile information that isn’t yours, or misrepresent your identity, credentials, or experience.

  • Use Lodestar to violate any law or the rights of others.

  • Attempt to access another user’s account or data.

  • Reverse engineer, scrape, or systematically extract the service or its outputs.

  • Interfere with, overload, or circumvent the technical limits of the service, including rate limits, usage caps, and abuse controls.

  • Use the service to build or train a competing product.

  • Resell or provide the service to third parties.

  • Use Lodestar in any way that violates these Terms or our Privacy Policy.

6. Your content

You keep ownership of your résumé, profile, and anything else you upload. You grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to store, process, and transmit that content solely to operate the service for you — parsing, matching, assessing, and drafting. This license ends when you delete the content or your account.

We do not use your content to train AI models. See our Privacy Policy for the specifics.

Documents Lodestar drafts for you are yours to use. We claim no ownership in them.

7. Our intellectual property

The service and its entire contents, features, and functionality, along with the standard and design trademarks “Lodestar,” are owned by Lodestar, its licensors, or other providers of such material that are fairly used by Lodestar, and are protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property or proprietary rights laws. All rights are expressly reserved to the owner(s) of such content. You must not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store, or transmit any of the material on the service, except as permitted by these Terms.

Your content and the documents Lodestar drafts for you are governed by Section 6, not this section.

8. Plans, billing, and cancellation

Lodestar currently offers a free plan. When paid plans become available, the following apply:

  • Subscriptions are billed in advance through Stripe on the interval you select, and renew automatically until cancelled.

  • You can cancel at any time in the app. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period, and you keep paid access until then.

  • Fees are non-refundable except where required by law or where we choose to make an exception.

  • We may change pricing with at least 30 days’ notice before it affects your renewal.

  • If a payment fails, we may suspend paid features until the balance is resolved.

Cancelling a subscription does not delete your account or your data. Your account continues on the free plan. Deletion is a separate action you take in the app.

Free-plan features and usage limits may change as the product evolves.

9. Availability and changes

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features at any time. We aim for reliable service but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. Job data, contact discovery, and AI processing depend on third-party providers whose availability is outside our control.

10. Termination

You can delete your account at any time in the app.

We may suspend or terminate your account if you violate these Terms, if your use creates legal risk or harm to others, or if we discontinue the service. Where circumstances allow, we’ll give you notice and an opportunity to export your data.

Sections 3, 4, 7, 11, 12, 13, and 14 survive termination, as do the ownership and no-training commitments in Section 6.

11. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that job listings are accurate, current, or still open; that contact information is correct or current; that AI-generated assessments or documents are accurate; or that use of the service will result in any employment outcome.

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SILVER LINING TECHNOLOGIES, INC., ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, OWNERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST OPPORTUNITIES, OR LOST EMPLOYMENT, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; where that applies, these limits apply to the fullest extent permitted.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Silver Lining Technologies, Inc. and its affiliates, officers, directors, owners, employees, and agents from any claim arising out of your use of the service, your outreach to contacts, your content, or your violation of these Terms or of any law or third-party right.

14. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Travis County, Texas, and you consent to their jurisdiction.

15. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. If changes are material, we’ll notify you by email and update the date above before they take effect. Continued use after that means you accept them.

16. Miscellaneous

These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the service. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
