Developer draft — not legal advice
This is a placeholder written for a Part-1 preview build. It has not been reviewed by a lawyer and must be reviewed against India's DPDP Act, 2023 (and any other applicable law) before any real user data is collected.
Account data: email address and role (candidate or employer).
Profile data: name, headline, city, experience, skills, domains, preferences, and any note you attach to a saved job.
Resume: the file you upload (up to 3 at a time) and the structured information we extract from it — name, contact details, employment history, skills, and similar resume content. The file and the extracted text are encrypted at rest. Nothing extracted is added to your profile until you review and accept it field by field.
To operate the service you're using: showing your saved jobs and applications back to you, computing a match score against listings, and (for the fields you choose to disclose) letting an employer you apply to get in touch.
We keep your account and profile data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we delete your profile data, subject to any minimum retention required by law.
Your phone number and email default to hidden until you apply. An employer browsing candidate profiles cannot see them; they become visible only to an employer whose listing you actually apply to. You can change this default in your profile's contact-visibility setting.
We do not sell, rent, or otherwise trade your email, phone number, or resume to third parties for marketing or lead- generation purposes.
In this preview build, no analytics or error-tracking service processes your personal data.
Resume parsing (optional): if you turn on AI-assisted resume parsing in Settings → Privacy, the parts of your resume text we can't confidently read ourselves are sent to a third-party AI language model provider to help fill them in — never your email address or phone number, which are removed first. This only happens for fields our own extraction couldn't resolve, only after you've turned it on, and you can turn it off at any time; resumes are still parsed without it, just with more fields left for you to fill in by hand.
Subject to applicable law (including India's DPDP Act, 2023), you have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, request correction of inaccurate data, and request erasure of your data. In this preview, the fastest way to exercise any of these is the "Download my data" and "Delete my account" controls on your profile page — both currently show what they'll do, since the underlying export/delete flows arrive in Part 2.
