If you are using the platform as a job seeker or interviewee (a "B2C Candidate" or "Candidate"), these Terms apply to your individual use.

Service Modifications

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Services at any time, with reasonable notice where practicable, to improve platform performance or comply with regulatory changes.

5.1 Decision-Support Tool Only

Mockwin's AI models, scoring rubrics, transcripts, behavioural analytics, and all other AI Outputs are designed strictly as decision-support tools. They are not intended to replace human judgment. For B2B Users: You are solely responsible for all final hiring, employment, and rejection decisions. You must ensure that your use of Mockwin complies with all applicable local, state, national, and international employment laws, including anti-discrimination legislation, equal opportunity mandates, and data protection requirements. For B2C Candidates: Mockwin does not guarantee employment, job placement, interview selection, or positive hiring outcomes. AI-generated feedback is provided for developmental and assessment purposes only.

5.2 Algorithmic Limitations

While we invest significantly in accuracy and fairness through continuous bias testing and diverse training datasets, AI systems are inherently probabilistic. Mockwin does not warrant that AI Outputs will be one hundred per cent accurate, error-free, or free from all implicit biases. We disclaim all liability for any alleged inaccuracies in candidate scoring, evaluation, or ranking.

5.3 AI Legislative Compliance

B2B Users bear the primary responsibility for complying with AI-related employment regulations in their jurisdiction, including but not limited to:

  • Prohibited Abuse: You must not use the API in any manner that compromises, circumvents, or degrades our systems, security measures, or other users' experience.
  • Revocation: Mockwin reserves the right to suspend or revoke your API access at any time without notice if we detect abuse, excessive programmatic querying, or violations of these Terms.

6.2 Mobile Application EULA Addendum

If you access the Services via a Mockwin mobile application downloaded from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, you acknowledge that these Terms are between you and Mockwin, not with Apple Inc. or Google LLC. Apple and Google have no obligation to furnish maintenance, support, or warranty services for the application.

  • Violates the Law: Breaches any applicable local, national, or international law or regulation, including data protection, employment, anti-discrimination, and consumer protection laws.

Consequences

Violation of this policy will result in immediate account suspension or termination, forfeiture of all unused credits and subscriptions, and potential legal action. No refund will be issued.

Privacy Practices

Our data collection, processing, and sharing practices are comprehensively detailed in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Services, you consent to our data practices as described therein.

B2B Responsibility

When utilising Mockwin to assess Candidates, B2B Users act as Data Controllers (or equivalent under local law). B2B Users warrant that they have obtained all necessary lawful rights, consents, and authorisations to invite Candidates and process their Personal Data through Mockwin. Organisations must execute Mockwin's Data Processing Agreement (DPA) prior to processing Candidate data.

Proctoring Consent

Candidates acknowledge that by initiating a proctored Assessment, they consent to audio and video recording, dual-camera monitoring, browser activity tracking, language pattern analysis, and identity verification as configured by the hiring Organisation.

Candidate Visibility Controls

Candidates may set their profiles and interview data to "Private" (available to paid subscribers) or "Talent Discovery" (default for free tier users, as described in Section 10). Visibility settings can be changed by upgrading to a paid plan or adjusting account settings.

9.1 Transactional Communications

By creating an account on Mockwin, you will receive transactional communications that are essential to the operation of the Services. These include account verification emails, security alerts, password reset notifications, billing receipts, interview reminders, assessment completion confirmations, and service disruption notices. Transactional communications cannot be opted out of while your account remains active, as they are necessary for the performance of our contract with you.

9.2 Promotional Communications

By creating an account on Mockwin, you also consent to receive promotional and marketing communications from us. These may include:

  • Product updates, new feature announcements, and platform tips.
  • Interview preparation advice, career resources, and skill-building content.
  • Hiring opportunities, job alerts, and recruiter messages sent through the platform.
  • Partner offers, events, webinars, and promotional campaigns.
  • Newsletters and curated content relevant to your professional profile.

9.3 Consent Mechanism by Jurisdiction

India, United States, and other non-EEA jurisdictions: By completing your account registration, you consent to receive promotional communications as described above. You may opt out at any time. European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, and jurisdictions requiring explicit opt-in: Promotional communications will only be sent if you affirmatively opt in via a separate, unchecked consent checkbox during registration. You may withdraw your consent at any time.

9.4 How to Opt Out

You may opt out of promotional communications at any time by:

  • Clicking the "Unsubscribe" link at the bottom of any promotional email.
  • Navigating to Account Settings → Communication Preferences and toggling off the relevant channels.
  • Replying "STOP" to any SMS or WhatsApp message.
  • Emailing support@mockwin.ai with the subject line "Opt-Out Request".

9.5 Recruiter-Initiated Communications

If your profile is included in the Talent Discovery Pool (see Section 10), subscribing Organisations may send you hiring opportunities and interview invitations through the Mockwin platform. These messages are facilitated by Mockwin but initiated by the Organisation. You may block specific Organisations or disable recruiter messages entirely through your account settings.

10.1 Value Exchange for Free Access

Mockwin offers a free tier that provides access to AI-powered mock interviews, assessments, and interview readiness tools at no cost to the Candidate. In exchange for this free access, you acknowledge and agree that your data will be made available to subscribing Organisations through Mockwin's Talent Discovery Pool, as described in this section.

10.2 What Is Shared in the Talent Discovery Pool

The following data from free tier users is included in the Talent Discovery Pool and is accessible to subscribing B2B Organisations:

  • Profile Information: Your name, professional title, skills, location, educational background, and years of experience.
  • Assessment Scores: Your aggregate interview performance scores, technical skill depth ratings, communication analytics, and AI readiness rankings.
  • Professional Summary: AI-generated summaries of your strengths, competency areas, and role suitability.

Data Never Shared Without Consent

The following data is never shared through the Talent Discovery Pool without your explicit, per-instance consent:

  • Full interview video or audio recordings.
  • Complete interview transcripts.
  • Proctoring and integrity data.
  • Your contact details (email, phone number) — Organisations may only contact you through Mockwin's in-platform messaging system until you choose to share your direct contact information.

10.3 How Organisations Use Talent Discovery

Subscribing Organisations may use the Talent Discovery Pool to:

  • Search for and identify Candidates whose profiles and scores match their open roles.
  • Review Candidate assessment summaries and readiness rankings.
  • Send hiring opportunities, interview invitations, and recruitment messages through the Mockwin platform.
  • Shortlist Candidates for further evaluation within the Organisation's own recruitment process.

10.4 Opting Out of the Talent Discovery Pool

Free tier users may not opt out of the Talent Discovery Pool while using the free tier, as this visibility constitutes the consideration for free access to the platform's AI tools. To remove your profile from the Talent Discovery Pool, you may upgrade to a Paid Plan (gaining full privacy controls to set your profile to "Private" mode) or delete your account at any time, which will remove all your data from the platform, including the Talent Discovery Pool, within thirty (30) days.

10.5 Transition from B2B Assessment to B2C Profile

If you complete an Assessment as part of a B2B Organisation's recruitment process and subsequently create an independent B2C account, you acknowledge that:

  • Your B2B Assessment data remains under the control of the hiring Organisation and is governed by their privacy policies.
  • Your independent B2C profile and any new self-initiated Assessments are governed by these Terms and Mockwin's Privacy Policy.
  • B2B Assessment data and B2C profile data are maintained separately and are not cross-referenced without your explicit consent.

11.1 Licence Grant for AI Training

By using the Services, you grant Mockwin a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sub-licensable licence to use anonymised and de-identified data derived from your use of the platform to train, improve, test, benchmark, and develop Mockwin's AI models, algorithms, and Services. This includes, without limitation:

  • Interview response patterns and behavioural signals (anonymised).
  • Speech analytics data, including cadence, tone, and fluency patterns (anonymised).
  • Assessment outcomes, scoring distributions, and performance benchmarks (aggregated).
  • Platform interaction data and usage patterns (aggregated).
  • Anonymised text transcripts for natural language processing model improvement.

11.2 Anonymisation and De-Identification

Before any data is used for AI model training, Mockwin applies rigorous anonymisation and de-identification processes to ensure that no individual user can be identified from the training dataset. This includes removing names, email addresses, photographs, video likenesses, and any other personally identifiable information. Only statistical patterns and linguistic structures are retained.

11.3 Deletion Requests and Model Training

If you exercise your right to delete your Personal Data under applicable privacy law (e.g., GDPR "Right to Erasure", DPDP Act withdrawal of consent), Mockwin will delete all identifiable records associated with your account. However, you acknowledge and agree that anonymised and de-identified derivatives that have already been incorporated into trained AI models cannot be individually extracted, reversed, or deleted. This is an inherent technical limitation of machine learning systems and is consistent with industry-standard practice. The anonymised data remaining in trained models does not constitute Personal Data under applicable law.

11.4 B2B Organisation Acknowledgment

Organisations using Mockwin's B2B Services acknowledge and agree that Mockwin may use anonymised, aggregated, and de-identified data derived from Assessments conducted on the platform to improve its AI models, as described in this section. This right is reflected in the Data Processing Agreement (DPA) and does not extend to the Organisation's proprietary knowledge base content uploaded via BYOKB, which remains confidential and isolated per tenant. Enterprise clients with custom Master Services Agreements (MSAs) may negotiate an opt-out of AI model training for their Organisation's Assessment data. Such opt-out must be documented in writing in the MSA.

11.5 Purpose Limitation

Data used for AI model training is used exclusively for the purpose of improving the quality, accuracy, fairness, and reliability of Mockwin's AI interview and assessment systems. Mockwin will not:

  • Sell anonymised training data to third parties.
  • Use training data to build competing products for third-party licensees.
  • Re-identify or attempt to re-identify anonymised individuals from training datasets.

12.1 Mockwin's Intellectual Property

All rights, title, and interest in the Services—including the software, user interface design, AI algorithms, machine learning models, knowledge bases, documentation, logos, trademarks, and brand features—are the exclusive property of Mockwin Technologies Private Limited and its licensors. These Terms do not grant you any rights to use Mockwin's trademarks, logos, or brand features without prior written consent.

12.2 User Content

You retain all ownership rights to the Content you upload (e.g., resumes, job descriptions, proprietary question banks, knowledge base documents). However, you grant Mockwin a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sub-licensable licence to host, store, process, analyse, and display this Content strictly for the purpose of providing and improving the Services. This licence terminates when you delete your Content or close your account, subject to reasonable backup and archival periods.

12.3 B2B Publicity Rights

By subscribing as a B2B Organisation, you grant Mockwin a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to use your company name, trademarks, and logos on our website and in marketing materials to identify you as a customer. You may opt out of this publicity clause at any time by emailing legal@mockwin.ai.

  • Public Display: By entering, you agree that your performance metrics, ranking, and profile identifier may be displayed publicly.
