Terms & Conditions
These terms describe how PrepHike works with you: what the service is, what is free, when something is paid, and how either side can end your use of it. By signing in to the application, you agree to these terms.
01 The service
PrepHike is an interview preparation product for software engineers. It runs at app.prephike.com and needs an account. It tracks the applications and interview rounds you are in, reads the account you write after each round into findings quoted from your own words, collects those findings into a record of the competencies your rounds have evidenced, reads a job description against that record, and runs voice rehearsals. This website describes the product and does not process any document.
02 What we are not
- We are not a placement agency. We do not contact companies on your behalf.
- We are not a course or a recorded-content platform.
- We do not guarantee a job. Hiring freezes, market conditions, and your performance on the day are outside our control.
03 Who this is for
Software engineers in India who are interviewing. Using the service needs an account, and an account needs an email address, and you must be 18 or older, or have a parent or guardian agree on your behalf.
04 What a new account gets
- A new account starts with an allowance that costs nothing and needs no card. It is enough to have three interview debriefs read, one job description read, and one voice mock run.
- Tracking applications and rounds, writing debriefs, keeping notes and recording outcomes are not metered and are not charged for.
- Every finding the service returns quotes a span from a document you supplied. Anything that cannot be quoted from your own words is discarded before it is shown to you.
- Nothing here is a certified assessment, and nothing simulates any particular applicant tracking system.
05 Paid features
- Some features inside the application are paid. Where something is paid, its price and what it covers are shown in the application before you buy, and nothing is charged until you confirm the purchase.
- No price is quoted on this website, and nobody at PrepHike will ask you to pay outside the application.
- Payments are processed by our payment provider. Keep your transaction record.
- Credits you have bought do not expire. A credit that has been spent on a reading is not refunded, because the reading was done. If a reading fails on our side, the credit is returned to you automatically and you are not charged for it.
06 Your account and your documents
You can export or delete your account and the documents in it from inside the application at any time, and both run immediately without anyone at PrepHike being involved. There is no ongoing engagement to end: the product is used when you choose to use it, and unspent credits sit in your account until you do. We may close an account that is used to abuse the service, and we would tell you why.
07 Outcomes
We are accountable for the quality of what we deliver: the findings, and the preparation material in the application. We do not produce a score, a rating or a predicted verdict, and we deliberately removed the ones that once existed, because nothing measured them. We are not accountable for outcomes driven by factors outside our scope, such as whether a recruiter responds, hiring freezes, interview panel bias, or whether you act on what you are shown. Past results are no guarantee of future outcomes.
08 Confidentiality
We keep your information private. We do not share your documents, salary, or job search with anyone outside the service. With your written permission, we may share an anonymized outcome (for example, a salary jump without your name or employer) as a reference.
09 Changes to these terms
We may update these terms over time. The terms that apply to you are the ones in force when you use the service.
10 Contact and governing law
PrepHike is based in Coimbatore, India. For any question about these terms, email [email protected]. These terms are governed by the laws of India, and any dispute is subject to the courts of Coimbatore, India.
