At AssistantAI, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our AI interview coaching service. Please read this policy carefully to understand our practices regarding your personal data.

2. How We Use Your Information

3. Audio & Interview Data

This is important: AssistantAI is designed with privacy as a core principle.

  • No Audio Storage: We do NOT record or store any audio from your interviews. Audio is processed in real-time by our AI system and immediately discarded.
  • Interviewer Voice Only: Our system only captures the interviewer's voice for analysis. Your voice is never processed or recorded.
  • Real-Time Processing: Questions are analyzed by Claude AI in real-time to generate suggestions. No transcripts or question logs are retained.
  • Session Metadata: We may store basic session metadata (date, duration, platform used) to improve our service, but never the content of your interviews.

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information only in the following circumstances:

  • Service Providers: We work with third-party service providers (hosting, analytics, payment processing) who assist in operating our service. These providers are bound by confidentiality agreements.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, or legal process.
  • Business Transfers: If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
  • With Your Consent: We may share information with your explicit consent.

5. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information:

  • All data is encrypted in transit using TLS 1.3
  • Sensitive data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption
  • Regular security audits and penetration testing
  • Access controls and authentication mechanisms
  • Employee training on data protection practices

While we strive to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
