This Privacy Policy explains how HypeRecruit LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects the personal data of users who access or use our web-based college recruiting platform (the “Service”) at https://www.hyperecruit.com. By using the Service, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

This policy applies to users in all locations, with additional disclosures for residents of the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, Switzerland, and the State of California.

We collect the following categories of personal information when you use our Service:

• To provide, operate, and personalize the Service for you
• To send personalized outreach emails to college coaches on your behalf (via Gmail or other authorized integrations)
• To track outreach effectiveness, including email opens, replies, and engagement analytics
• To display your athlete profile to coaches or others you designate
• To process payments and manage your subscription
• To improve platform functionality, performance, user experience, and security
• To communicate with you about your account, updates, and support
• To send marketing communications (with your consent or where permitted by law)
• To comply with legal obligations, enforce our Terms, and prevent fraud or abuse
• To conduct analytics and research to improve our platform (using aggregated, de-identified data)
• To generate AI-assisted outreach recommendations, templates, summaries, and communication suggestions
• To monitor abuse, spam activity, fraud, or misuse of the platform

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we rely on the following legal bases under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable national law to process your personal data:

• Contract Performance: To deliver the Service you signed up for, including account management, email delivery, and core platform features (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
• Consent: For Gmail and social media API integrations, optional profile features, and marketing communications. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
• Legitimate Interests: For analytics, platform security, fraud prevention, and service improvement, where such interests are not overridden by your rights (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
• Legal Obligation: Where we are required by law to retain or disclose certain data (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR).

For users under 16 in the EEA (or a lower age threshold as set by local law), we require verifiable parental consent before processing personal data.

HypeRecruit’s use of the Gmail API complies with Google’s API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use Requirements. Specifically:

• We only request the scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.send
• We use Gmail data solely to send messages you explicitly generate and authorize
• We do not read, store, or analyze your inbox, contacts, or any Gmail content
• We do not use Gmail data for advertising, machine learning model training, or any secondary purpose

HypeRecruit’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use of User Data Requirement.

HypeRecruit integrates with third-party social media platforms to allow you to enhance your athlete profile. Our use of social media APIs is governed by the respective platform policies:

• Meta (Instagram): We comply with Meta’s Platform Terms and Developer Policies. Data received via Meta APIs is used only to display or send content you authorize and is not used for profiling or advertising.
• Twitter/X: We comply with the Twitter/X Developer Agreement and Policy. We use only the minimum scopes necessary and do not store tweet data beyond what is displayed in your profile.
• LinkedIn: We comply with LinkedIn’s API Terms of Service. Data from LinkedIn is used only for profile enrichment and is not redistributed or sold.
• TikTok: If enabled, we comply with TikTok’s Developer Terms. Video content is displayed within your profile only with your explicit authorization.

In all cases, social media data is:

• Used only for the purpose for which you granted access
• Not sold or shared with third parties for their own marketing or advertising
• Retained only as long as necessary to provide the Service or as required by the platform’s policies
• Subject to deletion upon your request or upon revocation of access

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We may share limited data in the following circumstances:

• Service Providers: We share data with trusted third-party vendors who help us operate the platform, including Firebase (database and hosting), Stripe (payments), AI service providers used to power optional platform features, Google Cloud (infrastructure), and social media platforms (Meta, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, TikTok) for API-connected features. These providers are bound by data processing agreements and may only use your data to provide services to HypeRecruit.
• Business Transfers: If HypeRecruit is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your data may be transferred. We will notify you before such a transfer and give you the opportunity to opt out.
• Legal Compliance: We may disclose data to law enforcement, regulators, or courts when required by applicable law, subpoena, court order, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of HypeRecruit or others.
• With Your Consent: We may share data in other ways if you give us explicit consent to do so.

We require all third-party service providers to implement appropriate data protection measures and prohibit them from using your data for their own marketing or independent purposes.

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as necessary to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

• Account data is retained for the duration of your account and deleted within 30 days of an account deletion request, except where retention is required by law.
• Communication logs and analytics may be retained for up to 3 years for service improvement purposes, in de-identified or aggregated form where possible.
• Payment records are retained for up to 7 years as required by tax and accounting regulations.
• Social media API data is deleted upon revocation of API access or account deletion.
• Backup copies may persist for up to 90 days in secure archival storage.
• Certain records associated with fraud prevention, abuse detection, dispute resolution, legal compliance, or security investigations may be retained longer where reasonably necessary.

HypeRecruit is based in the United States. If you access our Service from the EEA, UK, Switzerland, or other jurisdictions with data transfer restrictions, your data may be transferred to and processed in the United States.

We implement appropriate safeguards for international transfers, including:

• Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission for transfers to countries without an adequacy decision
• Data Processing Agreements with all third-party service providers
• Technical and organizational measures to protect transferred data

By using our Service, you understand that your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States and other countries where our service providers operate.

We implement industry-standard technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures include:

• Encryption of data in transit (TLS/HTTPS) and at rest (AES-256)
• Secure storage via Google Cloud Platform with access controls and audit logging
• OAuth 2.0-based authentication for all third-party API integrations
• Regular security assessments and vulnerability testing
• Strict access controls ensuring only authorized personnel can access personal data
• Rate limiting, abuse prevention systems, and monitoring tools designed to protect the platform from spam, unauthorized activity, and malicious behavior

No system can guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify affected users and relevant authorities as required by applicable law (within 72 hours under GDPR where applicable).

HypeRecruit is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without verified parental consent, in compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

Users between the ages of 13 and 17 may use the Service only with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian. A parent or guardian may contact us to review, correct, or request deletion of their child’s personal information.

We may request additional verification of parental or guardian consent where reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law or to protect minors using the Service.

For users in the EEA, we comply with applicable age verification requirements. Where required, we obtain verifiable parental consent before processing data of users under the applicable age threshold (13–16 depending on the country).

By creating an account with HypeRecruit, you agree to receive service-related communications necessary to operate your account. You may also receive marketing communications about new features, tips, and recruiting resources.

You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by:

• Using the unsubscribe link in any marketing email
• Emailing us at hello@hyperecruit.com
• Adjusting your notification preferences in your account settings

Opting out of marketing does not affect transactional messages related to your account or subscription.

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the Service, remember your preferences, and analyze platform usage. Categories of cookies we use include:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the platform to function (e.g., authentication tokens, session management). Cannot be disabled.
• Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how users interact with the platform. You may opt out via your browser settings or our cookie preferences center.
• Preference Cookies: Remember your settings and personalization choices.

Where required by applicable law, we will obtain consent before placing non-essential cookies or similar tracking technologies on your device.

You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings or by contacting us. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect platform functionality.

Do Not Track (DNT) Signals: Most web browsers and some mobile browsers include a “Do Not Track” (DNT) feature or setting that lets you signal your preference not to have your online activity tracked. There is currently no uniform industry or legal standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals, so we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals. If a common standard for online tracking is adopted that we are required to follow, we will update this section to reflect that practice.

Global Privacy Control (GPC): We recognize and honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If you use a browser or browser extension that sends a GPC signal, we will treat it as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for targeted advertising purposes under applicable state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). When we detect a GPC signal, we apply your opt-out preference automatically, without requiring further action from you. For more information about GPC, visit globalprivacycontrol.org.

Our platform may contain links to third-party websites, tools, or resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you access through our platform, including Google, Meta, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Stripe.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by:

• Posting the updated policy on our website with a revised Effective Date
• Sending an email notification to your registered email address
• Displaying an in-app notice where required by law

Your continued use of the Service after such notice constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. If you do not agree with the changes, you should stop using the Service and may request deletion of your account.

If you have questions, requests, or complaints about this Privacy Policy or how we handle your data, please contact us at:

For EEA/UK users, HypeRecruit serves as the data controller for your personal information. If you are unsatisfied with our response to a complaint, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.
