Hire Me — Terms of Use

1 The service

Hire Me is an iOS application that helps you evaluate and improve your CV and find job openings that match your background in a country you choose. It is operated by Ahmed Ramadan Khalifa as an individual developer.

By using Hire Me you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.

2 Who may use Hire Me

You must be at least 16 years old to use Hire Me. If you are under 16, do not create an account. The Privacy Policy says the same, and the App Store listing is rated to match.

You also need an Apple account, because Sign in with Apple is the only way to sign in.

3 What Hire Me does and does not promise

We provide: a score for your CV with the reasoning behind it, suggestions to improve its wording and structure, professionally formatted CV exports, and job listings gathered from third-party job APIs and employers' own public job boards — some of them free or free-tier services rather than licensed feeds, each used within the terms that source publishes — ranked by how well they fit your profile.

We do not promise:

• that you will get an interview, an offer, or a job — hiring decisions belong entirely to employers;
• that every job in your chosen country appears in the app — coverage depends on which sources serve that market, and the app tells you the coverage level for your selection;
• that any listing is still open, accurate, or legitimate — listings come from third parties and we show you the source and when we last checked it;
• that a higher CV score leads to a better outcome — the score is a tool for improving your document, not a judgement of you or a prediction of your prospects.

4 Applying to jobs

In this version, Hire Me does not send any email or application on your behalf. When you choose to apply, the app opens the employer's own official application page and you complete the application there. Any record you keep in the app is your own note that you applied.

5 Your content

You keep ownership of your CV and everything in it. You grant us only the permission needed to store, process, and display it back to you, and to send the minimum necessary excerpt to our AI provider when you explicitly ask for improvement suggestions and have consented to that processing.

You are responsible for the accuracy of your CV. Our improvement suggestions rephrase and reorganise what you wrote; they must not add qualifications, employers, dates, or achievements you do not have. If you believe a suggestion invented something, report it and do not accept it. Submitting a CV containing false claims to an employer is your responsibility and may have serious consequences for you.

6 Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• upload a CV that is not yours or that you have no right to upload;
• use the service to harass employers, or to send bulk unsolicited messages by any route;
• attempt to circumvent quotas, subscription checks, or technical protections;
• scrape, resell, or redistribute job listings obtained through the app. We read those sources under the terms each one publishes, which let us show you listings but do not let us pass them on for republication, and the listings remain the employer's or the source's own content. Using a listing for your own job search — reading it, applying through it, keeping your own notes on it — is exactly what the app is for;
• upload malicious files or attempt to disrupt the service.

We may suspend or terminate an account that breaches these terms.

7 Subscriptions and payment

Hire Me offers a free plan and paid Pro and Max plans with higher monthly limits and full access to AI improvement features.

• Paid plans are auto-renewing subscriptions sold through Apple. Prices, billing period, and currency are shown by Apple at the point of purchase, and Apple's terms govern the transaction.
• Payment is charged to your Apple account at confirmation of purchase.
• A subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You manage and cancel subscriptions in your Apple account settings, not in this app.
• Monthly allowances reset each billing period and do not carry over.
• Refunds are handled by Apple under Apple's policy. We do not process refunds directly.

8 Free plan limits

The free plan includes a full CV score, a preview of improvement suggestions, one CV template, and a limited monthly number of job matches. These limits exist to control the cost of the service and may be adjusted; material reductions will be announced in advance.

9 Availability

We aim to keep the service running but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. Features that depend on third parties — job sources, the AI provider, Apple's services — may become unavailable, and we may disable a source at short notice if its terms, quality, or legal status changes.

10 Deleting your account

You can delete your account and its data at any time from within the app, in the Delete account section at the bottom of Settings. Deleting your account does not cancel an active Apple subscription; cancel that in your Apple account settings. The Support page has the exact steps for both, and the Privacy Policy sets out what deletion removes and what it cannot reach.

11 Liability

To the extent permitted by law, Hire Me is provided "as is". We are not liable for hiring outcomes, for the content or conduct of employers, for the accuracy of third-party listings, or for indirect or consequential losses. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

12 Terms Apple requires us to include

These are our own terms rather than Apple's standard licence agreement, so Apple requires that the following be part of them. They apply to the iOS app you download from the App Store.

• This agreement is between you and us only. Apple is not a party to it. Hire Me is licensed to you, not sold.
• What the licence covers. You have a personal, non-transferable licence to use Hire Me on any Apple-branded device you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Terms of Service.
• Support is ours, not Apple's. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to provide any maintenance or support for Hire Me. Support requests go to support@hire-me.app.
• Warranty. If Hire Me fails to conform to any warranty that applies to it, you may tell Apple, and Apple will refund what you paid for the app. Beyond that refund, and to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation of any kind, and any other claim, loss, liability, damage, cost or expense arising from a failure to meet a warranty is our responsibility rather than Apple's.
• Claims about the app. We, not Apple, are responsible for dealing with any claim you or a third party makes about Hire Me or your use of it — including product liability, any failure to meet a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims arising under consumer protection or privacy law.
• Third-party intellectual property. If a third party claims that Hire Me or your use of it infringes their intellectual property, we, not Apple, are responsible for investigating, defending, settling and discharging that claim.
• Export compliance. By using Hire Me you confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You agree to use Hire Me only as the export laws that apply to you allow.
• Other people's terms still apply. You must comply with any applicable third-party terms when you use Hire Me — for example, the terms of the mobile network you use it on.
• Apple may enforce these terms. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and have the right to enforce them against you.
• Who to contact. Questions, complaints and claims about Hire Me go to Ahmed Ramadan Khalifa at the support address in section 15.

13 Governing law, disputes and severability

This section is not finished. The three items below must be settled with a qualified adviser before these terms are relied on. They are left blank on purpose rather than guessed, because the answer depends on where the developer is established and where users are:

• Governing law — TODO: set with a qualified adviser
• Courts and jurisdiction — TODO: set with a qualified adviser
• Dispute resolution — TODO: set with a qualified adviser

Two things do not depend on that choice and apply now:

• Your local consumer rights. Nothing in these terms takes away a right you have under the mandatory consumer law of the country you live in, and nothing in them asks you to give one up.
• Severability. If any part of these terms turns out to be unenforceable, that part is treated as removed and the rest of the terms continue to apply.

14 Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes will be notified in the app before they take effect.
