Compliance and Security
Enterprise-Grade Security & Ethical AI You Can Trust
Hireguide is built with top-tier security and global compliance in mind, ensuring fairness and transparency in every interview.
Global Privacy & Compliance
Hireguide is designed with a privacy-first approach, complying with stringent regulations like GDPR and CCPA to protect personal data worldwide. We put candidates in control of their data, requiring clear consent, allowing opt-outs anytime, and honoring deletion requests.
GDPR & CCPA
Compliant with EU and California privacy laws – consent-driven data practices and timely data deletion ensure candidate privacy.
EEOC & Fair Hiring
Structured, bias-resistant interviews meet Equal Employment Opportunity guidelines, creating a fair and defensible hiring process.
Global Standards
Regular audits and updates to stay current with evolving regulations (e.g., emerging AI regulations in hiring).
Enterprise-Grade Security
Our platform is secured to the highest standards — from encryption to access control — so your data stays safe.
SOC 2 Type II Certified
Independent attestation of robust internal controls for security and availability.
Data Encryption
All data is encrypted in transit and at rest using 256-bit AES and TLS encryption, preventing unauthorized access to interview recordings or personal information.
Single Sign-On & Access Control
Integration with SSO and role-based access ensures only authorized team members can access sensitive interview data.
Monitoring & Audits
Continuous security monitoring, logging, and regular penetration tests by experts maintain high security uptime.
High Availability
Uptime monitoring and redundancy to meet enterprise reliability needs.
Ethical AI & Fair Hiring
AI is our co-pilot, not the pilot – we use AI to assist your team, never to make hiring decisions for you.
Human-In-The-Loop
Hireguide's AI will never make a candidate recommendation or decision on your behalf – this guardrail ensures compliance with emerging AI hiring laws.
No Automated Decision-Making
The AI Coach helps with interview note-taking and transcription, but does not score or rank candidates autonomously.
Bias Mitigation
Hireguide enforces structured, skills-based interviews. The AI Coach anonymizes feedback and standardizes questions to minimize unconscious bias.
Transparency & Explainability
All AI suggestions are transparent and can be explained to users. There are no "black box" hiring decisions.

Transparency & Auditability
Every step of the interview process can be reviewed and verified, which is crucial for both compliance and building trust with stakeholders.
Recorded Interviews (with Consent)
All interviews can be recorded with candidate's knowledge and consent, providing an objective record.
Detailed Transcripts & Audit Logs
Hireguide automatically transcribes interviews and stores notes, creating a permanent record of what was asked and answered.
Defensible Decisions
Because of structured interviews and stored evidence, hiring teams can defend their choices with data.
Audit Trails & Alerts
Admin users have access to logs of who accessed which interview data, and Hireguide can provide audit reports if needed during compliance reviews.
