Fair Use Policy

This Fair Use Policy is designed to protect Bolt HRM, our customers, and platform infrastructure from misuse, abuse, and harmful activity.

By using Bolt HRM, you agree to use the Service responsibly and in accordance with this policy, our Terms & Conditions, and applicable laws.

Bolt HRM may be used for legitimate internal HR operations, including employee data management, onboarding, attendance, leave, payroll support, and HR reporting.

You may use automations and integrations only in ways that are secure, authorized, and aligned with your business operations.

You must not use Bolt HRM to violate employment, privacy, labor, payroll, or data protection laws.

You must not upload malware, attempt unauthorized access, probe vulnerabilities, bypass authentication, or interfere with platform availability.

You must not use the Service to harvest personal data, impersonate users, or submit fraudulent employee, payroll, or compliance records.

You must not abuse APIs, automations, or integrations in ways that create excessive load, instability, or security risk.

To ensure reliability for all customers, we may apply reasonable limits on API calls, background jobs, storage, export frequency, and other high-intensity operations.

Where possible, we will provide notice when usage patterns risk service stability. You agree to cooperate with mitigation requests.

We may throttle, suspend, or temporarily restrict workflows that materially degrade performance, threaten security, or violate this policy.

You are responsible for ensuring that data entered into Bolt HRM is accurate, lawfully obtained, and processed with proper notice and authorization where required.

You must maintain appropriate internal controls for sensitive HR data, including payroll and identification records.

If you connect third-party systems to Bolt HRM, you are responsible for reviewing and complying with those providers' terms, permissions, and security requirements.

You must not configure integrations in a way that introduces unauthorized access, data leakage, or harmful automation behavior.

If we detect behavior that violates this policy, we may investigate and take action, including warning notices, temporary rate limits, suspension of specific features, or account suspension.

In severe or repeated cases, we may terminate access in accordance with our Terms & Conditions.

If you identify misuse, security abuse, or suspicious activity related to Bolt HRM, please report it promptly so we can investigate.
