By accessing or using Hiriso, you agree to these Terms.
1. Service Description
Hiriso provides interview assistance, transcription, analytics, and applicant tracking services.
2. AI Privacy & Candidate Identity Protection
All AI-powered features in Hiriso operate under a strict candidate identity protection policy:
- Candidate names, email addresses, physical addresses, and phone numbers are automatically redacted before any data is sent to external AI models for analysis, scoring, or summarization.
- AI evaluations are performed on anonymized data, reducing the potential for identity-based bias.
- AI-powered resume parsing (the only workflow involving unredacted candidate text) is optional and can be disabled by the customer in Settings > Privacy. When disabled, candidates are created manually and all AI workflows operate on fully anonymized data.
- No interview or candidate data is used to train external AI models.
- Full details of these protections are described in our Privacy Policy (Section 5.1).
3. Customer Responsibilities & Recording Consent
3.1 General
Customers are responsible for:
- Lawful use of the Services
- Maintaining the security of their account credentials and authorized access
- Ensuring that all employees, contractors, and users acting on the Customer's behalf (collectively, “Interviewers”) comply with these Terms
3.2 Recording, Transcription & AI Analysis
The Services include features that allow Interviewers to record audio, capture system audio, generate transcripts, and produce AI-derived analysis of interviews, meetings, and other conversations. The Interviewer — and not Hiriso — is solely and exclusively responsible for:
- Determining lawfulness. Determining whether recording, transcribing, and AI-analyzing an interview or conversation is lawful in every jurisdiction in which any participant is located, including but not limited to “one-party,” “two-party,” and “all-party” consent statutes; federal and state wiretap and eavesdropping laws (such as the U.S. Electronic Communications Privacy Act and California Penal Code §§ 631–632); the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR); the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018; the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA); Canada's PIPEDA; Brazil's LGPD; and any other applicable national, state, provincial, local, or workplace rule.
- Providing clear and conspicuous disclosure to every participant — prior to any recording — that the conversation is being recorded, transcribed, and analyzed by an AI-powered service.
- Obtaining and retaining all required consents. Securing, documenting, and retaining every consent, opt-in, notice, or authorization required by applicable law from each candidate, employee, contractor, or other participant, and establishing a valid lawful basis for processing personal data under GDPR Article 6 (and, where relevant, Article 9) or any analogous law.
- Honoring participant rights. Respecting any participant's request to refuse, pause, or terminate the recording, and ensuring the recording does not continue when any required consent is withheld or withdrawn.
3.3 Hiriso's Role & Disclaimer of Liability
Hiriso provides only the technical means to record, transcribe, and analyze conversations. Hiriso does not initiate any recording, has no direct relationship with candidates or other interview participants, and has no ability to verify whether the Interviewer has provided any required notice or obtained any required consent. As between Hiriso and the Customer, the Interviewer and the Customer — and not Hiriso — bear sole and exclusive responsibility and liability for compliance with all recording-disclosure, notice, and consent obligations described in Section 3.2. Hiriso shall not be liable for, and expressly disclaims any responsibility arising out of, the Interviewer's or Customer's failure to provide such disclosure or obtain such consent.
3.4 Indemnification
The Customer shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Hiriso and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, demands, proceedings, fines, penalties, damages, liabilities, settlements, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to: (i) any failure by the Interviewer or the Customer to provide required disclosure or obtain required consent for any recording, transcript, or AI analysis generated through the Services; (ii) any allegation that a recording, transcript, or AI output created through the Services violated wiretap, eavesdropping, privacy, data-protection, employment, or anti-discrimination law; or (iii) any dispute between the Interviewer or Customer and any candidate, employee, or other participant regarding the recording, transcription, or analysis of an interview.
3.5 No Legal Advice
Hiriso does not provide legal advice. Recording, wiretap, and data-protection laws vary significantly by jurisdiction, change frequently, and may apply differently depending on the participants and context. Customers are strongly encouraged to consult qualified legal counsel before using the recording, transcription, and AI-analysis features of the Services in any new jurisdiction or scenario.

Customers retain full ownership of all interview, candidate, and recruitment data.

- Use Hiriso for unlawful or discriminatory purposes
