Who owns my job board?

You do. Your listings, company profiles, branding, blog content and the code and files of the sites you build are your User Content under section 7 of the Terms. Cavuno holds a non-exclusive license to host and process it only so the service can run, and that license ends when you delete the content or close your account.

Can Cavuno take over a board that becomes successful?

No. Ending a subscription, for any reason, gives Cavuno no ownership of or rights in your content, your job boards, your domains, your Stripe account, or your relationships with your employers, buyers, subscribers and job seekers (Terms section 17).

Where does my revenue go?

Into your own Stripe account. You are the seller and merchant of record for everything you sell on your board (Terms section 8).

When can Cavuno end my subscription?

For cause, such as a serious or repeated breach of the Terms, unpaid fees, or a legal order. For any other reason, such as retiring a plan, Cavuno must tell you why in writing, give you at least 30 days' notice, keep your sites and domains running until the end date, and refund prepaid time after that date pro rata.

Can I take my site's code with me?

Yes. While your account is active, check out your site as a Git repository with the Cavuno CLI on plans that include API access, or ask hi@cavuno.com for a copy on other plans. The parts that come from Cavuno's starter template and SDK are MIT licensed, so you can keep using them after you leave.

How do I move my data and domain?

Export your tables to CSV from the '...' menu on each table or through the API, and ask hi@cavuno.com for a coordinated return of anything the exports do not cover. On request, Cavuno removes your custom domain from its platform so you can point it at your new host. Your domain stays registered to you.

Can Cavuno change these terms?

Cavuno can update the Terms by posting a new version. If a change materially reduces your rights and you do not accept it, you can cancel within 30 days after it takes effect and get a pro-rata refund of prepaid time. A change never removes the 30-day notice and refund for a period you have already paid for.

Does Cavuno show my board as a customer example?

Cavuno may show your board's name, logo, URL, a screenshot of its public pages and a short description on cavuno.com and in its marketing. Email hi@cavuno.com to opt out, and it is removed within 14 days.

Who owns your job board

Your job boards, content, domains, revenue and site code belong to you. How ownership, ending a subscription and moving your board work under the Terms.

By Abi Tyas Tunggal and Jack Walsh

Your job boards belong to you. The Terms of Service give Cavuno a license to run the service for you, and nothing more.

What you own

Content and code. Listings, company profiles, branding, blog posts and the code and files of the sites you build.
Revenue. Sales on your board are paid into your own Stripe account, with you as merchant of record.
Domains. You register and renew your custom domain. Point it anywhere, at any time.
Open-source parts. Builder sites start from Cavuno's starter template and SDK, both MIT licensed.

If a subscription ends

Who ends it	What happens
You	Cancel any time in your account settings. Access continues to the end of your billing period.
Cavuno, without cause	A written reason, at least 30 days' notice, sites and domains keep running until the end date, and a pro-rata refund of prepaid time. No exit fee.
Cavuno, for cause	Serious or repeated breaches, unpaid fees, legal orders and credible threats. Other breaches get 14 days to fix. Cavuno restricts a site before closing an account where that is enough.

In every case, ending a subscription gives Cavuno no rights in your boards, content, domains, Stripe account or customers.

Moving your board

Until your account ends:

Export your tables to CSV. See Export your data.
Check out your site's code with the Cavuno CLI on plans with API access, or ask hi@cavuno.com for a copy. See Use your own coding agent.
Email hi@cavuno.com for a coordinated return of anything the exports do not cover, such as applications.
Ask Cavuno to remove your custom domain, then point its DNS at your new host.
