terms of use

oorik recruit is a talent pool and a hiring pipeline. Candidates build a profile from their resume and apply to jobs. Companies post jobs, review applicants and move them through interview rounds. How we handle personal data is described in the privacy notice, which forms part of these terms.

• You must be 18 or older to use oorik recruit.
• An account belongs to one person. Keep access to your email account secure, because sign-in codes are sent there.
• Company accounts need a work email at the company domain. By creating one you confirm that you may act for that company and accept these terms on its behalf.
• An email address is used either as a candidate account or as a company account, not both.
• Give accurate information and keep it up to date.

• Joining the talent pool and applying to jobs is free.
• Your profile is yours. You give us permission to store it, process it and show it to the companies whose jobs you apply to, as the privacy notice describes. That permission ends when you delete your account.
• Check your profile before you confirm it and keep it truthful. Do not upload a resume that is not yours.
• You can withdraw from the talent pool or delete your account at any time from your profile.
• Companies decide whom to interview and hire. We do not promise interviews, offers or jobs.

A company must never ask you to pay to apply, to be interviewed or to be hired. Report any such request to hello@oorik.in.

• Publishing a job uses one posting. Drafts do not.
• After a job closes you can keep working its pipeline for 30 days.
• The price shown for a plan is the full amount you pay. Nothing is added to it at checkout. Companies billed in India pay in INR and companies billed outside India pay in USD.
• Your plan currency follows your billing country and is fixed once you make your first payment.
• Payments are taken by Razorpay. If a payment method is from a different country than your billing country, we may hold the payment for review before adding postings.
• If a Growth renewal fails, you can keep reviewing and moving applicants for up to 7 days while the charge is retried, but you cannot publish until it succeeds.
• Single is refundable until you use it to publish a job. Growth can be cancelled at any time and keeps its postings until the end of the paid cycle, with no partial refunds.
• A refund of a Single payment removes that posting. While a payment dispute or chargeback is open, publishing is paused.

To ask for a refund or another copy of a receipt, write to hello@oorik.in.

You see each applicant's name, profile and links when they apply, and their email, phone and resume when they reach your final round, or earlier if the candidate chooses to share them. These details are personal data, and you receive them for one purpose: hiring for the role they applied to. You agree that you and anyone acting for you will:

• Use them only to assess the candidate and to contact them about that role or its offer.
• Not sell, rent, license, trade or give them to anyone else, including other employers, agencies or data brokers. Staff or recruiters working on that role for you may see them under a duty of confidence.
• Not add them to marketing lists, newsletters or databases, and not use them to contact the candidate about unrelated roles without asking them first.
• Not copy, scrape, export or harvest candidate data in bulk, by script or by hand, and not try to work out contact details before they unlock.
• Not discriminate against a candidate on any ground prohibited by Indian law.
• Keep them secure, delete them when you no longer need them for that role, and meet your own duties as a Data Fiduciary under the DPDP Act.
• Tell us without delay at hello@oorik.in if candidate data is misused, lost or exposed.

Breaking this section is a serious breach. We may suspend or close your account without a refund, notify affected candidates and pass information to the authorities.

• Post real, open roles at your company, or roles you are formally hiring for on a client’s behalf, and describe them accurately.
• Never charge candidates any fee, deposit or payment, and never ask for their identity documents or bank details before an offer.
• No pyramid or multi-level marketing schemes, unpaid work trials presented as jobs, or roles that break Indian law.
• We may remove a job that breaks these terms. A posting used on a job removed for a breach is not refunded.

• Do not access the service with bots or scripts, except through features we provide.
• Do not probe, scan or test the security of the service, or try to get around limits, gating or access controls.
• Do not upload files that contain malware, or content that is unlawful or that you have no right to share.
• Do not impersonate a person or a company.

You can stop using oorik recruit and close your account at any time. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, puts other users at risk or is required to be closed by law. Where we can, we tell you why first and give you a chance to fix the problem.

We work to keep oorik recruit available and accurate, but it is provided as it is. Match scores are an aid to sorting and are not a judgement of a person. We do not check every statement candidates or companies make, and we are not a party to any job offer or employment.

To the extent the law allows, our total liability to a company for any claim is limited to the fees it paid us in the 12 months before the claim, and we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under Indian law.

These terms are governed by the laws of India. If you have a complaint, write to hello@oorik.in first and we will try to resolve it with you. If we cannot resolve it within 30 days, either of us may take it to the competent courts in India.

When we change these terms we update the date at the top, and for changes that affect your rights or your plan we email you before they apply. Questions about these terms go to hello@oorik.in.
