Acceptable Use Policy

You may not use Meridian to screen, approve, or reject applicants based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, disability, or any other characteristic protected under the Fair Housing Act or applicable state/local law.

Apply your screening criteria consistently to every applicant. Meridian's screening workflow requires you to acknowledge consistent application of your criteria before recording a decision — this policy is the standard that acknowledgment refers to.

Only enter applicant screening information you lawfully obtained (typically with the applicant's written consent, directly from the applicant or a licensed screening provider). Do not use Meridian to store data from a consumer report obtained without a permissible purpose under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

No unlawful, fraudulent, or harassing use; no attempts to access other users' accounts or data; no interference with the security or availability of the service; no reverse engineering of the platform.

Violations may result in suspension or termination of your account, as described in the Terms of Service.
