  • Identifiers (e.g., name, email, account ID).
  • Profile and resume data (e.g., education, work history, skills, links).
  • Job preferences and activity (e.g., saved jobs, applications, interactions).
  • Device and usage data (e.g., IP address, browser type, pages viewed).
  • Cookies and similar technologies for authentication and analytics.
Note: Some data may be provided by you directly, generated by your use of the platform, or collected automatically through standard web technologies.

How We Use Your Information

  • To operate and maintain the platform.
  • To create your candidate profile and improve matching quality.
  • To provide AI-powered resume analysis, scoring, and recommendations.
  • To communicate service updates, security notices, and support responses.
  • To prevent fraud, abuse, and unauthorized access.

Resume & Profile Visibility

  • You control when your data is shared with employers.
  • Employers may receive your resume/profile information when you apply or explicitly submit it.
  • We may display limited profile information within candidate-facing features (e.g., your own dashboard).
  • We do not sell your resume or personal data.
Note: If you choose to share your profile externally (e.g., public portfolio link), you are responsible for the information you publish.

AI & Automated Processing

  • We use automated systems, including AI models, to analyze resumes and suggest improvements.
  • AI outputs are assistive and may be incomplete or inaccurate.
  • AI is not the final decision-maker in hiring; employers remain responsible for hiring decisions.
  • We may use aggregated, de-identified usage patterns to improve model performance and product quality.

How We Share Information

  • With employers, when you apply or otherwise consent to share.
  • With service providers (e.g., hosting, storage, monitoring) under contractual confidentiality obligations.
  • With analytics providers to understand product usage (where enabled).
  • With legal authorities when required by law, court order, or to protect rights and safety.
Note: We do not sell personal data to third parties.
