Draft — pending founder legal review. This policy is being prepared ahead of camera and microphone features shipping in the product. It is not yet the final, legally reviewed version. Wording will be confirmed before it governs any live candidate data.
Privacy Policy
Last updated: 12 August 2026 (draft)
1. Who we are
This service is operated by kodetalent ("KodeTalent", "we", "us"). KodeTalent is a candidate-screening service for recruiters and recruitment agencies: a recruiter posts a job and shares an application link, a candidate submits a resume and completes a short AI interview built from that resume and the job's requirements, and KodeTalent prepares an evidence-linked report for the recruiter. This policy covers the KodeTalent website, recruiter dashboard, application flow, interview, and reports.
2. What we collect
Recruiter account details (company name, email, hashed password); job details you post; a candidate's name, email, resume text, and optional GitHub/portfolio links; interview questions and your answers; and, where camera/microphone recording is enabled for an interview, video and audio of the interview session. We do not ask candidates for government ID, financial information, or health, caste, or religious information.
3. Camera and microphone recording
Where an interview records video and audio, that recording is used only to let the hiring recruiter review the interview alongside the written transcript. A recording is stored for at most 30 days after the interview, after which it is automatically deleted. Only the recruiter who owns the job the candidate applied to can view a recording, and it can be watched but not downloaded. Recording never starts without your explicit consent, given on the interview screen before your camera or microphone turn on.
4. AI processing and hiring decisions
KodeTalent uses AI to analyse resume text, generate interview questions, decide whether a follow-up would help, and draft the recruiter's report. AI output can be incomplete or wrong and must be read alongside the underlying interview evidence. KodeTalent does not make the final hiring decision. It reports whether a claim was supported, partially supported, not supported, or not tested in this interview — it does not verify identity, credentials, employment history, or overall job fit. The recruiter remains responsible for human review and every decision about progression or hiring.
5. Who processes this data for us
We use a small number of infrastructure and AI providers to deliver the service, including Supabase (database and file storage), an OpenAI-compatible AI provider for interview and report generation, Deepgram (speech-to-text for spoken answers), Groq (text-to-speech and AI processing), and the GitHub API (to read public repository information a candidate links). These providers process data only to deliver their contracted service to KodeTalent, never to sell it or use it for their own advertising.
6. Who can see it
The recruiter who posted a job (and their agency's client, where applicable) can see that job's candidates, interview transcripts, recordings, and reports. Access is restricted by account so one recruiter cannot see another recruiter's data. Candidates do not receive their own report through the normal product flow.
7. Security
We use password hashing, cryptographically random session and interview tokens, server-side token hashing, expiring access links, and per-account access controls designed to keep one recruiter's data separate from another's. No service can promise absolute security — please protect your account and interview links.
8. Your choices
You may ask us to explain what personal information we hold about you, correct it, or request its deletion, subject to any legal retention requirement. Send a request to the contact below with enough detail for us to locate your record. Do not email a password or interview token to us.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the service, providers, or law changes. We will post the updated version here with a new "last updated" date.
10. Contact
Questions about this policy or your data can be sent to riteshrv3@gmail.com.
A more detailed working draft, covering additional operational and legal detail, is maintained internally ahead of full legal review.
