Privacy policy
Last updated 4 September 2026
Scope
This policy explains what Inline Interview collects when you use this website, why we collect it, who else sees it, and what you can ask us to do about it. It applies to everyone who visits the site, creates an account, or buys a question bank.
Inline Interview is operated from India and is the data fiduciary for the information described below. Our registered details are on the contact page.
What we collect, and why
Account details. Your name, email address, phone number, college, roll number, branch and expected year of graduation, and your LinkedIn profile if you choose to give it. We use these to identify your account, to put your name on the documents we generate for you, and to verify campus ambassador applications.
Resume content. The text of your resume and anything you write in the explanation step. This is the material your questions and answers are generated from, so we cannot provide the service without it. Your original file is read in your browser and never uploaded; only the extracted text reaches us.
Purchase records. The amount, any code used, the payment reference and whether the payment succeeded. Card numbers, UPI PINs and banking credentials are entered directly with our payment provider and are never seen or stored by us.
Operational data. Sign-in sessions, request counters used to prevent abuse, and error logs. These keep the service available and secure.
Who processes it on our behalf
AI providers. Your resume text and your explanations are sent to OpenAI and Google to generate your questions and answers. We use their paid API tiers, under which submitted content is processed solely to return that result and is not used to train their models. This processing takes place outside India, in the United States.
Infrastructure and payments. Vercel hosts the site and Neon stores the database, both outside India. Razorpay processes payments in India and receives your name, email and phone number to do so — we never see or store your card or UPI details. If you sign in with Google, Google confirms your identity to us. Each acts on our instructions and for no other purpose.
We do not sell your data, and we do not advertise on it. Your resume is never shared with recruiters, employers, colleges or placement cells. If you use a campus ambassador's code, that ambassador sees only that one of their codes was redeemed, never who you are or what is on your resume.
What other people can see
Approved campus ambassadors who opt in appear in the ambassador directory, showing their name, college, branch, email address and LinkedIn profile if they gave one, so students at their college can reach them. The directory is visible only to signed-in users, phone numbers are never shown, and an ambassador can ask to be removed at any time.
Success stories are published only where the author has both submitted one and separately ticked the box agreeing to publication, and only after we have reviewed it. Nothing else about any user is public.
How long we keep it
Your resume text and generated question banks are kept while your account exists, so you can open them again. You can delete any individual question set from your dashboard, which removes its resume text and every question generated from it.
Purchase and reward records are retained for the period required by Indian tax and accounting law, even after an account is closed — the amounts and the dates, with the payment details they were made with removed. We also keep a log of when an administrator has looked up an account and why, for up to a year, because a record of who accessed your data is part of protecting it. Everything else, including your resume text, your questions, your contact details and your payout details, is deleted with the account.
Your rights
You can ask us for a copy of the data we hold about you, ask us to correct anything inaccurate, withdraw consent for processing, remove yourself from the ambassador directory, or delete your account and its contents entirely.
Email support.inlineinterview@gmail.com from your registered address and we will respond within 3 working days. If you are not satisfied with how we have handled a request, you may escalate it to the Data Protection Board of India.
Security
Data is encrypted in transit. Payment signatures are verified on our servers for every transaction. Administrative access is restricted to an explicit list of addresses. Access to your question banks is checked against your own account on every request.
No system is perfectly secure. Please do not put anything into your resume or your notes that you would not want stored, such as passwords, client-confidential material, or information covered by an agreement with an employer.
Children
This service is not intended for anyone under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has created an account, write to us and we will remove it.
Cookies and analytics
We use a single cookie to keep you signed in. There are no advertising cookies and no cross-site profiling on this website.
We measure page visits using Vercel Analytics, which counts how many people open each page and which site they arrived from. It sets no cookie, stores no identifier for you, and cannot follow you to any other website. We use it to understand which pages are useful, not to build a profile of you.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes materially we will update the date at the top of this page, and tell paying users by email. Continuing to use the service after a change means you accept the updated policy.
