AI Use & Transparency Policy

This AI Use & Transparency Policy explains how artificial intelligence ("AI") is used within the services provided by Aperture Labs Inc. ("Aperture," "we," "us," or "our") and how AI-generated outputs should be understood and used by businesses and individuals participating in interviews conducted through the platform.

Aperture is committed to transparency, responsible AI usage, and clear communication regarding the role of automated systems in the interview and evaluation process.

This policy is intended to supplement our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

Aperture provides AI-assisted interview and candidate screening tools designed to help organizations conduct structured interviews and obtain analytical insights.

AI systems within Aperture may be used to:

• Conduct or assist with interview interactions;
• Generate interview transcripts;
• Analyze candidate responses;
• Identify communication and behavioral patterns;
• Produce interview summaries and analytical insights;
• Generate candidate evaluations or recommendations;
• Compare interview responses against defined job criteria.

AI systems are used as decision-support tools and not as decision-makers.

Aperture does not make hiring decisions.

All employment and hiring decisions remain solely the responsibility of the organization using the Services. AI-generated outputs are intended to assist human evaluation and must not be used as the sole basis for employment decisions.

Organizations using Aperture are responsible for:

• Independently reviewing candidate information;
• Applying human judgment in hiring decisions;
• Ensuring compliance with applicable employment and anti-discrimination laws.

During interviews, AI systems may analyze information including:

• Spoken responses and language patterns;
• Communication clarity and structure;
• Behavioral and interaction signals;
• Facial movement and visual engagement indicators;
• Tone and delivery characteristics of speech;
• Contextual relevance of responses to interview questions.

Aperture does not use AI for identity verification or facial recognition, and does not generate biometric identifiers.

AI-generated outputs may include summaries, evaluations, scores, or recommendations.

Users should understand that:

• AI outputs are probabilistic and may contain inaccuracies;
• AI analysis may not fully reflect a candidate's abilities or qualifications;
• Outputs may vary depending on context and available information;
• AI systems may produce different outputs under similar circumstances.

AI outputs should be treated as informational assistance only.

Aperture continuously improves its AI systems to enhance performance, consistency, and usability.

Data generated through use of the Services, including interview transcripts and analytical data, may be used to improve AI models. Where applicable, data used for improvement may be anonymized or aggregated.

AI systems are periodically evaluated and updated to improve quality and reduce unintended bias.

Aperture is designed to support structured and consistent interview processes. However, no automated system can guarantee the absence of bias or unintended outcomes.

Organizations using the Services should:

• Avoid relying solely on automated analysis;
• Consider multiple evaluation factors;
• Conduct independent review processes where appropriate.

Aperture does not guarantee fairness outcomes or employment suitability determinations.

Candidates participating in interviews conducted through Aperture should be informed by the organization conducting the interview that AI-assisted tools may be used during the interview process.

Candidates may request additional information about how their data is processed by contacting the organization conducting the interview or Aperture through the contact information below.

We may update this AI Use & Transparency Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our Services. Updates will be reflected by the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy.
