Your username and password may not be used by any other person. You agree to accept responsibility for any and all activities or actions that occur under your account and/or password, whether your password is with our Services or a third-party service. You must notify us immediately upon becoming aware of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account and you must ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session.

By providing us with your email address and other contact information, you consent to our using such contact information to send you Services-related notices, including any notices required by law, in lieu of communication by postal mail. We may also use your email address or phone number to send you other messages, such as changes to features of the Services and other information about our organization.

User Content

Some areas of the Services allow users to submit, post, display, provide, upload, or otherwise make available content such as profile information, contact information, photos, user forum features, comments, questions, and other content or information (any such materials a user submits, posts, displays, provides, uploads or otherwise makes available on the Services is referred to as "User Content"). This includes recordings of challenge participation, which are made to ensure the integrity of our assessments, provide feedback, and assist in job matching processes. User Content may be viewable by other users of the Services and through third-party websites. As such, any User Content may be treated as non-confidential and non-proprietary. All User Content publicly posted or privately transmitted through the Services is the sole responsibility of the person from whom such User Content originated, and you access all such information and User Content at your own risk.

We claim no ownership rights over User Content created by you. The User Content you create remains yours. However, you understand that if portions of the Services allow other users to view, edit, share, and/or otherwise interact with your User Content, by providing or sharing User Content through the Services, you agree to allow others to view, edit, share, and/or interact with your User Content in accordance with your settings in the Services and these Terms. We have the right (but not the obligation) in our sole discretion to remove any User Content that is on or is shared via the Services.

By submitting, posting, displaying, providing, uploading or otherwise making available any User Content on or through the Service, you expressly grant, and you represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary to grant, to us a royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide license to use, reproduce, modify, publish, list information regarding, edit, translate, distribute, syndicate, publicly perform, publicly display, and make derivative works of all such User Content and your name, voice, and/or likeness as contained in your User Content, in whole or in part, and in any form, media or technology, whether now known or hereafter developed, for use in connection with the Services and our (and our successors' and affiliates') business, including without limitation for promoting and redistributing part or all of the Services (and derivative works thereof) in any media formats and through any media channels. You also hereby grant each user of the Services a non-exclusive right to access your User Content through the Services, and to use, reproduce, distribute, display and perform such User Content as permitted through the functionality of the Services and under these Terms. You waive all moral rights in your User Content, and you warrant that moral rights have not otherwise been asserted in your User Content. You will not be entitled to any compensation from us if we use your User Content or if your name, likeness, or voice is used or conveyed in connection with the Services.

In connection with your User Content, you affirm, represent and warrant the following: (a) you have the written consent of each and every identifiable natural person in the User Content, if any, to use such person's name or likeness in the manner contemplated by the Services and these Terms, and each such person has released you from any liability that may arise in relation to such use; (b) you have obtained and are solely responsible for obtaining all consents as may be required by law to post any User Content relating to third parties; and (c) your User Content and our use thereof as contemplated by these Terms and the Services will not violate any law or infringe any rights of any third party, including but not limited to any patent rights, copyright rights, mask work rights, moral rights, rights of publicity, trademark, trade dress and service mark rights, goodwill, trade secret rights and other intellectual property rights under the laws of any state, country, territory or other jurisdictions ("Intellectual Property Rights") and privacy rights.

To the best of your knowledge, all your User Content and other information that you provide to us is truthful and accurate.

We have the right, in our sole and absolute discretion, (a) to edit, redact, or otherwise change any User Content; (b) to re-categorize any User Content to place them in more appropriate locations on the Services; and (c) to pre-screen or delete any User Content at any time and for any reason, without notice.

We take no responsibility and assume no liability for any User Content, including its accuracy, validity, timeliness, completeness, reliability, integrity, quality, legality, usefulness or safety, or any intellectual property rights therein, that you or any other user or third-party posts, sends, or otherwise makes available via the Services. You shall be solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of posting, publishing it, sharing it, or otherwise making it available via the Services, and you agree that we are only acting as a passive conduit for your online distribution and publication of your User Content. You understand and agree that you may be exposed to User Content that is inaccurate, objectionable, inappropriate for children, or otherwise unsuited to your purpose, and you agree that we shall not be liable for any damages you allege to incur as a result of or relating to any User Content.

Although we reserve the right to review all content and User Content that appears on the Services and to remove any content or User Content that violates these Terms, our Community Guidelines or the law, we do not necessarily review all of it. We also cannot guarantee the identity of any users with whom you interact in using the Services and are not responsible for which users gain access to the Services.

Interactions with Other Users

If the Services permits interaction with other users, you are solely responsible for such interactions. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor disputes between you and other users. We shall have no liability for your interactions with other users, or for any user's action or inaction.

Moderators

Some areas of the Services may allow you and/or other users to serve as unofficial, voluntary moderators of User Content on the Services ("Moderators"). We are not responsible for actions taken by Moderators. We reserve the right to revoke or limit your ability to serve as a Moderator at any time and for any or no reason, including for breach of these Terms.

If you elect to become a Moderator you agree to (a) comply with the Moderation Handbook; (b) take appropriate action to remove or restrict, as applicable, User Content that violates these Terms, the Community Guidelines or the Moderation Handbook and escalate issues in accordance with such terms and policies; (c) not perform any moderation activities in return for any form of compensation from a third party; (d) protect the confidentiality of any non-public information you access or receive in connection with your performance as a Moderator; (e) not represent that you are authorized to act on behalf of us and (f) not enter into any agreements with third parties on behalf of us.

We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to overturn any action or decision of a Moderator if we, in our sole discretion, believe that such action or decision is not in the interest of us or the Turing community.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to engage in any of the following prohibited activities in connection with your use of the Services and/or any features or functions therein: (a) copying, distributing, or disclosing any part of the Services in any medium, including without limitation by any automated or non-automated "scraping"; (b) using any automated system, including without limitation "robots," "spiders," "offline readers," etc., to access the Services in a manner that sends more request messages to our servers than a human can reasonably produce in the same period of time by using a conventional online web browser; (c) transmitting spam, chain letters, or other unsolicited email; (d) attempting to interfere with, compromise the system integrity or security or decipher any transmissions to or from the servers running the Services; (e) taking any action that imposes, or may impose at our sole discretion an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure; (f) uploading or transmitting invalid data, viruses, worms, or other software agents through the Services; (g) collecting or harvesting any personally identifiable information, including account names, from the Services; (h) impersonating another person or otherwise misrepresenting your affiliation with a person or entity, conducting fraud, hiding or attempting to hide your identity; (i) interfering with the proper working of the Services; (j) accessing any content on the Services through any technology or means other than those provided or authorized by the Services; or (k) bypassing the measures we may use to prevent or restrict access to the Services, including without limitation features that prevent or restrict use or copying of any content or enforce limitations on use of the Services or the content therein.

Fair Assessment Policy

In addition to the above, to maintain the integrity of Turing assessments and ensure a fair and trustable process for all developers, the following rules generally apply to challenge participation (with exceptions sometimes),

  • Close all non-Turing browser tabs before starting the challenge to ensure focus and compliance with challenge conditions.

  • During the challenge, you are permitted to look up syntax or API references only. This includes consulting official manuals, language specs, or standard library references. The use of ChatGPT, StackOverflow, question banks, forums, or any other external resources is prohibited and constitutes cheating.

  • The challenge environment (IDE) provided by Turing is the only tool you are allowed to use for coding and related tasks during the challenge.

  • Copying and pasting code within the challenge environment is strictly controlled to prevent unfair advantages.

  • Turing reserves the right to review and monitor challenge participation and share recordings with clients for the purpose of job matching, adhering to our Privacy Policy. Should you wish for a recording to be deleted, requests can be made to support@turing.com. Note that this may affect your ability to be matched with job opportunities.

  • Acts of cheating, including but not limited to obstructed or paused video during the challenge, creating multiple Turing profiles, impersonation, excessive tab switching, taking screenshots, receiving unauthorized assistance, or any other actions that violate the integrity of the assessment will result in immediate action. This may include temporary or permanent banning from the platform.

By adhering to these guidelines, you help preserve the fairness and integrity of the Turing community and its assessment processes.

You agree not to post User Content that: (a) may create a risk of harm, loss, physical or mental injury, emotional distress, death, disability, disfigurement, or physical or mental illness to you, to any other person, or to any animal; (b) may create a risk of any other loss or damage to any person or property; (c) seeks to harm or exploit children by exposing them to inappropriate content, asking for personally identifiable details or otherwise; (d) may constitute or contribute to a crime or tort; (e) contains any information or content that we deem to be unlawful, harmful, abusive, racially or ethnically offensive, defamatory, infringing, invasive of personal privacy or publicity rights, harassing, humiliating to other people (publicly or otherwise), libelous, threatening, profane, obscene, pornographic, or otherwise objectionable; (f) contains any information or content that is illegal (including, without limitation, the disclosure of insider information under securities law or of another party's trade secrets); (g) contains any information or content that you do not have a right to make available under any law or under contractual or fiduciary relationships; (h) contains information the disparages, tarnishes or otherwise harms, in our opinion, us and/or the Services or (i) contains any information or content that you know is not correct and current. We reserve the right, but are not obligated, to reject and/or remove any User Content that we believe, in our sole discretion, violates any of these provisions.

Changes to Services

Our Services are continuously evolving and improving. We may add or remove features, products, or functionalities, and we may also suspend or stop the Services altogether, in whole or in part. We may impose limits on certain features, or restrict access in certain ways. We may take any of these actions at any time, and we may not provide you with prior notice when we do so.

Depending on the Third-Party Provider Accounts you choose and subject to the privacy settings that you have set in such Third-Party Provider Accounts, personally identifiable information that you post to your Third-Party Provider Accounts may be available on and through your account on the Services. Please note that if a Third-Party Provider Account or associated service becomes unavailable or our access to such Third Party Provider Account is terminated by the third-party service provider, then Social Media Content may no longer be available on and through the Services. You will have the ability to disable the connection between your account on the Services and your Third-Party Provider Accounts at any time. PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR THIRD-PARTY PROVIDER ACCOUNTS IS GOVERNED SOLELY BY YOUR AGREEMENT(S) WITH SUCH THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS.
