Please read these Terms of Service ("Terms", "Terms of Service") carefully before using the psahire.com website (the "Service") operated by Public Safety Answers, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (“PSA”, "us", "we", or "our").
Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned upon your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. These Terms apply to all visitors, users and others who wish to access or use the Service.
By accessing or using the Service you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of the terms then you do not have permission to access the Service.
PSA is a Company Independent from any Governmental or Public Safety Agency
PSA is an independent testing service provider. PSA is not owned or affiliated with any public safety department, agency, municipality, or other governmental entity or agency (collectively, “Government Agencies” and each a “Government Agency”). No Government Agency has any financial interest, ownership stake, or revenue-sharing arrangement with PSA.
When a Government Agency contracts with PSA to provide testing processes to individuals applying to work with the Government Agency (referred to herein as a “Participating Agency”), PSA’s sole responsibility is to provide and administer the testing process of the Participating Agency.
PSA is not involved in a Participating Agency’s Hiring Process
PSA does not participate in the review, evaluation, or selection of applicants at any stage of the hiring process. All decisions regarding candidate qualifications, advancement, and final selection are made exclusively by the Participating Agency.
Submitting payment and completing the test does not guarantee that an applicant will receive an interview invitation or an offer of employment. All hiring decisions, including interview selection and job offers, are made solely by the Participating Agency based on their own criteria.
Minimum qualifications and eligibility criteria for any position are established solely by the Participating Agency. Applicants are responsible for reviewing and confirming that they meet all minimum requirements before registering for an assessment. Applicants who apply for a position for which they do not meet the Participating Agency’s stated minimum qualifications are not entitled to a refund of any fee paid to PSA.
Test results are provided exclusively to the Participating Agency for use in their selection and evaluation process. PSA does not release individual scores or performance feedback to applicants under any circumstances. Payment of the testing fee does not entitle an applicant to access or receive a copy of their score or test materials. By participating in this process, you acknowledge and agree that test scores will not be shared directly with applicants, regardless of who paid the testing fee.
PSA does not assume any role in, nor is it responsible for, providing status updates, test results interpretation, or follow-up communication with applicants beyond the testing process itself. All post-test communication, including updates on applicant status, interview scheduling, hiring decisions, or selection notifications, is the sole responsibility of the Participating Agency. By participating in the assessment, you acknowledge and agree that all inquiries regarding your application or progression in the hiring process must be directed to the Participating Agency.
PSA does not administer or determine eligibility for hardship considerations related to testing fees, deadlines, or accommodations. When offered, all hardship requests must be directed to and are solely administered by the Participating Agency. Each Participating Agency is responsible for reviewing, approving, or denying such requests in accordance with their own policies and procedures.
Purchases
PSA does not request, store, or retain credit card information and instead relies on third-party payment service providers to safeguard your personal details. When you purchase any product or service made available through the Service ("Purchase"), you are providing details (such as, credit card number) directly to a third party and PSA has no visibility into those personal details.
You represent and warrant that: (i) you have the legal right to use any credit card(s) or other payment method(s) in connection with any Purchase; (ii) the information you supply to our third-party payment service provider is true, correct and complete, and (iii) you grant us the right to provide information about you to the third-party payment service providers subject to our Privacy Policy.
Any fees paid by applicants for testing services are collected solely by PSA to support the administration and delivery of assessments. No portion of the testing fee is shared with or benefits any Participating Agency.
We reserve the right to refuse or cancel your order at any time for reasons including but not limited to: product or service availability, errors in the description or price of the product or service, error in your order or other reasons. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel your order if fraud or an unauthorized or illegal transaction is suspected.
By submitting payment for this assessment, you agree that all fees are non-refundable unless otherwise stated in writing by PSA. Applicants who initiate a chargeback or dispute a transaction with their credit card provider without first contacting PSA to resolve the matter will be charged a $25.00 convenience fee, in addition to the original testing fee. This fee covers administrative costs incurred in processing the dispute and will be required before any future services or assessments are provided.
Accounts
When you create an account with us, you guarantee that you are above the age of 18, and that the information you provide us is accurate, complete, and current at all times. Inaccurate, incomplete, or obsolete information may result in the immediate termination of your account on the Service.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, including but not limited to the restriction of access to your computer and/or account. You agree to accept responsibility for any and all activities or actions that occur under your account and/or password, whether your password is with our Service or a third-party service. You must notify us immediately upon becoming aware of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account.
You may not use as a username the name of another person or entity or that is not lawfully available for use, a name or trademark that is subject to any rights of another person or entity other than you, without appropriate authorization. You may not use as a username any name that is offensive, vulgar or obscene.
We reserve the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, remove or edit content, or cancel orders in our sole discretion.
Testing Process
By participating in this assessment, you acknowledge and consent to the use of your device’s camera for monitoring and verification purposes. Live or recorded video may be used to:
Confirm the identity of the applicant,
Ensure compliance with testing protocols, and
Maintain the integrity of the testing process.
All video data will be handled in accordance with applicable privacy laws and organizational data protection policies. Refusal to allow camera access may result in disqualification from the assessment or an incomplete application status.
All applicants are required to complete the testing process before the designated closing time listed for the assessment. It is the applicant’s responsibility to begin the test with sufficient time to complete all sections prior to the closing deadline. No extensions, retries, or exceptions will be granted due to time expiration. If you are still testing when the posted close time is reached, your session will automatically end, regardless of whether all questions have been answered or the assessment is complete.
If an applicant does not complete the testing requirement prior to the published deadline, PSA will not provide a refund to the applicant and no provision of these Terms entitles an applicant to a refund of any amounts paid to PSA.
If an applicant does not complete the entire testing process before the published deadline, PSA does not provide any extra time or relief to the applicant. The applicant may address applicant’s concerns to the Participating Agency, which may review the circumstances and determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, whether an applicant should be allowed to complete the process.
An applicant is not permitted to retake a test within a six-month period from the date of their initial attempt, regardless of their score or outcome. This restriction is in place to ensure fairness, maintain the integrity of the testing process, and prevent score manipulation through repeated attempts. Any attempt to circumvent this policy may result in disqualification from the selection process and/or future eligibility restrictions.
