2. Description of the Service

Locket is a video interview and recruitment platform that enables candidates to record and share interview videos with potential employers and hiring managers.

• User Eligibility: You must be at least 18 years old (or the applicable age of majority in your jurisdiction) to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement.

4. Consent and Use of Your Interview Videos

  • Full Consent: You permit us to share your full interview video with companies, apply light editing, and use portions for promotional purposes on social media.

  • No Consent: You do not wish to have your video shared.
