Terms of Service

Last updated: April 2026

By using Hire4Real.fyi, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.

1. Description of Service

Hire4Real.fyi provides a ghost job detection tool that cross-references job postings against publicly available data including U.S. Department of Labor PERM filings, WARN Act notices, and prevailing wage data. The service is intended for individual job seekers conducting personal job searches.

2. Editorial Opinion Disclaimer

Ghost Scores are editorial opinions, not facts.

All Ghost Scores produced by Hire4Real.fyi are probabilistic editorial opinions based on patterns observed in publicly available data. They are not statements of fact about any employer's hiring intent. We make no representation that any specific score is accurate for any specific job posting.

Do not rely solely on a Ghost Score to make employment decisions. A low score does not mean a job is categorically a ghost job, and a high score does not guarantee that a position will be filled or that you will receive a response. Always conduct your own due diligence.

3. Acceptable Use

You agree to use Hire4Real.fyi only for lawful purposes. You may not:

  • Automate bulk job scanning on free or Standard plans in excess of your rate limit
  • Use the service to build a competing ghost-job detection product without a commercial license
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer our scoring algorithm or circumvent rate limiting
  • Submit false or misleading community reports to manipulate company scores
  • Use the service to harass, defame, or target specific individuals
  • Access the API to extract bulk data for commercial redistribution without a license

4. Account Responsibilities

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials. You may not share your account with other users. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, are associated with abuse, or are used for unauthorized commercial purposes.

5. Subscription and Billing

Paid plans are billed monthly via Stripe. You may cancel at any time; your subscription remains active until the end of the current billing period. We do not offer refunds for partial billing periods.

Free plan users are subject to scan rate limits as described on the pricing page. We reserve the right to modify free plan limits with 14 days' notice.

6. Intellectual Property

The Ghost Score algorithm, UI, brand, and all original content on Hire4Real.fyi are owned by Hire4Real. The underlying public data (DOL filings, WARN notices) is in the public domain. You may not reproduce or redistribute Hire4Real.fyi's scoring outputs at scale without written permission.

7. Limitation of Liability

Hire4Real.fyi is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Hire4Real.fyi and its operators are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service, including but not limited to missed job opportunities, reliance on Ghost Score results, or service interruptions. Our total liability to you shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim.

8. Modifications

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated via email or in-app notice at least 14 days before taking effect. Continued use of the service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

9. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
