Terms of use

1. The service

Hirelume is a tool for recruiters and HR teams. It lets you add job descriptions, use a Chrome extension to score a LinkedIn profile you are viewing against one of your jobs, and bookmark profiles to review later. Hirelume does not contact candidates on your behalf.

2. Eligibility and accounts

You must be at least 16 years old and able to enter into a binding agreement to use Hirelume. You're responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide, for keeping your login credentials secure, and for all activity under your account. Tell us promptly if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.

3. Your content and license

Your jobs, notes, and the profile snapshots your organization captures remain your organization's. You grant Hirelume a limited license to store and process that content, including sending it to our AI provider for scoring, solely to provide the Service to you. You can delete jobs and bookmarks at any time, and request deletion of your account and associated data as described in our Privacy policy.

4. Your obligations

When you use Hirelume, you agree to:

• Use the Service only for legitimate recruiting purposes
• Score and bookmark only profiles you are viewing yourself, one at a time, in the normal course of sourcing
• Comply with LinkedIn's terms, applicable data protection law, and employment and anti-discrimination law in your own hiring process and decisions
• Handle the personal information of the people whose profiles you score as your organization's own responsibility, including responding to their requests

5. AI-generated scores

Match scores, summaries, strengths, and gaps are generated by AI from the profile snapshot and your job description, and may contain errors or omissions. They are estimates based only on the information available — not a guarantee of a person's qualifications, fit, or suitability, and not a substitute for your own evaluation and hiring judgment.

6. Prohibited conduct

You agree not to:

• Scrape, harvest, or bulk-extract data from Hirelume, or use Hirelume or its extension to bulk-collect LinkedIn profiles
• Automate the extension or call the Service's API to score profiles at scale outside normal use
• Create fake accounts or use information obtained through Hirelume for spam, harassment, or unrelated marketing
• Attempt to reverse-engineer, disrupt, or gain unauthorized access to the Service or its underlying systems
• Use automated means to create accounts or submit content at scale outside normal use

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

7. No guarantee of outcomes

Hirelume helps you assess profiles faster; it does not guarantee that you will make a hire, or any particular hiring or employment outcome.

8. Intellectual property

Hirelume's branding, design, software, and underlying technology are owned by us or our licensors and are not covered by the license you grant us to your own content under Section 3. You may not copy, modify, or create derivative works of the Service itself.

9. Termination

You may stop using Hirelume and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, or discontinue features or the Service with reasonable notice where practical.

10. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement. We don't warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that AI-generated content will be accurate or complete.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Hirelume and its operators won't be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service, including hiring decisions made based on information from the Service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us, if any, in the 12 months before the claim arose.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold Hirelume harmless from claims arising from your misuse of the Service, your content, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of United Kingdom, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

14. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we'll update the "Last updated" date and, where appropriate, notify you directly. Continued use of Hirelume after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.
