Ensuring the Integrity of Our Assessments

Introduction

At HiPeople, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of integrity and security for our assessments. To achieve this, we have implemented a policy requiring all users to sign up with a valid work email. This policy is crucial for several reasons, which we outline below.

The Importance of Work Emails

1. Professional Environment: Work emails are tied to professional environments, ensuring that our assessments are used for their intended purposes in a professional setting.

2. Verification and Security: Work emails provide a layer of verification that helps us maintain a secure platform. They are more reliable for identity verification than personal emails, reducing the risk of unauthorized access.

3. Maintaining Assessment Confidentiality: Our assessments are designed for specific professional contexts. By limiting access to users with work emails, we can better protect the content from being misused or redistributed, preserving their relevance and effectiveness.

Addressing Concerns with Private and Educational Emails

1. Private Emails: While private emails are widely used, they offer less security and make it challenging to verify the professional status of users. This can lead to unauthorized sharing or misuse of assessment content.

2. Educational Emails (Students): Students and private users often seek access to professional resources for educational purposes. However, allowing access via educational emails could lead to the widespread distribution of our assessments outside their intended context. This could undermine the assessments' effectiveness and confidentiality.

Commitment to Quality and Integrity

We understand that this policy might be inconvenient for some potential users. However, our commitment to maintaining the quality and integrity of our assessments is paramount. We believe this approach is essential to ensure that our assessments remain powerful tools for professionals.
