Trust is a product capability.

Authorized human evaluators own scores, and human users own workflow decisions. Outcome changes are recorded.

Where AI is used, the model identity and relevant configuration context are recorded, and AI generations can be traced to their configured context.

Score and decision changes are kept in an append-only history, and direct writes to outcome tables are restricted.

Critical AI functions can be paused, and incidents can be routed for review. A pause stops the AI provider call and never scores or rejects a candidate.

Candidates are informed when AI is used in an assessment.

Queued governance notifications are delivered to staff in the product by an enabled delivery worker that reads every notification source, including the daily detection run. The full chain — a finding recorded, a notification queued, delivered in-app with platform-operator fan-out — was verified in production on 8 September 2026, and a daily delivery schedule is configured to run each morning after the detection run. What does not exist is any channel outside the product; that is recorded below under email delivery.

Per-workspace retention windows are enforced automatically for monitoring media AND for assessment records (responses, scores, notes, decisions — 24-month default, organization-configurable). Operational logs and organization offboarding follow published schedules, executed by the same daily automation.

Camera, screen, and microphone capture are each turned on per assessment by the organization and are disclosed to the candidate on the consent screen before the exam starts. Nothing is captured unless the organization enables it.

For identity-review sessions an organization may attach a reference photo of the candidate. It is stored privately, disclosed to the candidate on the consent screen, and shown only to an authorized human reviewer beside the session selfie and photo ID. SkillCort performs no automated face matching, gallery search or cross-candidate matching and stores no biometric face template. The organization can remove it as the candidate’s current reference at any time; a version already pinned to a review remains available only until the configured media-retention window expires.

SkillCort's Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, Data Processing Addendum, Cookie Policy and subprocessor list are published and in force.

In a live AI interview the candidate can stop the AI mid-session, and the platform enforces it rather than trusting the browser. Verified in production on 11 September 2026: a real session was stopped mid-answer, the decision was recorded before anything else happened, the provider call was ended from our side 623 milliseconds later, and nothing arrived from the AI after that. The session is not evaluated, no score is written, and the case goes to a named reviewer who is notified in the product. Stopping does not lower a candidate's score. The documented boundary is the surface: AI case simulations and AI-scored assessments have no mid-session control — there the candidate's choice is made before the step begins.
