Terms of Service

Last updated: February 9, 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of MockMic, operated by Alston Analytics (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. Description of Service

MockMic is an interview practice platform. It asks you interview questions, listens to your spoken or typed answers, asks follow-up questions, and returns scored feedback. The Service includes:

  • Practice Sessions: Mock interviews drawn from a question bank covering common roles and competencies. Free accounts receive a limited number of questions; paid plans remove that limit.
  • Voice Interviewer: Questions are read aloud and you may answer by speaking. Speech is transcribed by your browser’s built-in speech recognition; we receive the resulting text, not an audio recording.
  • Scored Feedback: AI-generated scores and written feedback on your answers across dimensions such as structure, specificity, confidence and conciseness.
  • Job Description Analysis: Optional analysis of a job description you paste in, used to tailor the questions you are asked.
  • Progress Tracking: A history of your practice sessions, scores and streaks.

Questions, follow-ups and feedback are generated by artificial intelligence using models from third-party providers (including Anthropic, OpenAI and Google). Feedback is a practice aid produced by an automated system. It is not a prediction of how any real interviewer will assess you, and it is not career, legal or employment advice.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you are under 18, you must have permission from a parent or legal guardian. By using the Service, you represent that you meet these requirements.

3. User Accounts

3.1 Account Creation

To create an account you may use Google Sign-In (OAuth) or an email address and password. Each person may maintain only one account. Creating multiple accounts to circumvent the free question limit or for any other purpose is prohibited.

3.2 Account Responsibilities

You are responsible for:

  • Maintaining the security and confidentiality of your account credentials
  • All activity that occurs under your account
  • Notifying us immediately at info@alstonanalytics.com if you suspect unauthorized access

3.3 Account Deletion

You may delete your account at any time through your account settings or by contacting us. Upon deletion, your practice sessions, answers and feedback history are permanently removed, subject to the data retention obligations described in our Privacy Policy.

4. Subscriptions and Payments

4.1 Free

Free accounts receive 3 practice questions. Every feature of the Service — the voice interviewer, follow-up questions, job description analysis and scored feedback — is available on the free tier. Only the number of questions is limited.

4.2 Unlimited ($12.99/month or $129.99/year)

Removes the question limit. Unlimited practice questions, billed monthly or annually. Annual billing is $129.99 per year against $155.88 if paid monthly, a saving of $25.89. There is no separate higher tier; paid access is a single plan.

4.3 Auto-Renewal and Cancellation

All subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless you cancel before the renewal date. You may cancel at any time through the billing portal in your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you retain access to paid features until then.

4.4 Price Changes

We reserve the right to modify subscription pricing. Existing subscribers will receive at least 30 days' written notice before any price increase takes effect. Continued use after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.

4.5 Refunds

Refunds are provided as required by applicable law. If you believe you have been charged in error, contact us at info@alstonanalytics.com within 30 days of the charge.

5. Intellectual Property

5.1 Question Bank and Service Content

The interview question bank, scoring rubrics, prompts and written guidance provided through the Service are owned by Alston Analytics. You may use them for your own interview preparation. You may not scrape, bulk-export, republish or resell them.

5.2 Your Answers and Feedback

You retain ownership of the answers you give and any job description or other material you paste into the Service. You grant us a limited, non-exclusive licence to process that input solely to operate the Service — to transcribe it, generate follow-up questions and feedback, and show you your own history. The feedback generated for your answers is yours to use for any purpose.

5.3 Shared Score Cards

If you generate a score card image to share, you may share it freely. It contains only the scores and summary you choose to share, and carries MockMic branding which you may not remove.

5.5 MockMic Platform

The MockMic platform, including its software, design, AI pipelines, algorithms, user interface, branding, and all underlying technology, is owned by Alston Analytics and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any rights to our trademarks, service marks, or trade dress.

6. Prohibited Uses

You agree not to use the Service to:

  • Generate content that is illegal, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable
  • Upload or submit copyrighted material for which you do not hold the rights or a valid license
  • Generate content that promotes violence, terrorism, hate speech, or discrimination against any group
  • Create misleading content designed to deceive or defraud others
  • Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity
  • Attempt to circumvent usage limits, rate limiting, or subscription restrictions
  • Create multiple accounts to obtain additional free usage
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract MockMic's AI models, algorithms, or source code
  • Use automated tools (bots, scrapers) to access the Service without written permission
  • Resell, sublicense, or commercially redistribute MockMic-generated content without the appropriate subscription tier and authorization
  • Interfere with or disrupt the Service, servers, or networks connected to the Service
  • Use the Service to generate content that infringes on the intellectual property rights of any third party

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these restrictions, with or without prior notice.

7. AI-Generated Content Disclosure

7.1 Nature of the Feedback

Interview questions, follow-up questions, scores and written feedback are produced by artificial intelligence. This means:

  • Scores are generated by an automated model and are not calibrated against any employer's actual hiring bar
  • Feedback may be inconsistent between sessions, and may contain errors or miss things a human interviewer would notice
  • No human reviews your answers or your feedback
  • Practising here does not predict or guarantee the outcome of any real interview, and no employer is affiliated with or endorses the Service

7.2 Not Professional Advice

MockMic is a practice tool provided for informational purposes only. It is not career, recruitment, legal or employment advice, and it is not a substitute for professional guidance.

7.3 User Responsibility

You are solely responsible for deciding what to say in a real interview. Do not paste confidential information belonging to a current or former employer into the Service.

8. DMCA and Copyright Takedown
