1. Scope
This Privacy Policy explains how Apply4Me collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you use our website, dashboard, browser extension, and related services.
2. Information we collect
We collect the information you choose to provide, including your name, email, phone number, location, work authorization, resume uploads, portfolio links, GitHub link, job-search preferences, saved answers, custom answer prompts, AI writing context, application history, and support messages.
We also collect operational data needed to run the product, such as extension connection status, application run events, plan status, usage counters, and browser session information.
3. How we use information
We use your information to provide Apply4Me, including storing your application profile, generating cover letters and long-form answers when enabled, filling supported application fields, tracking application history, powering the extension connection, enforcing plan limits, improving saved-answer reuse, responding to support requests, and protecting the service from abuse.
4. AI processing
If you enable AI writing, we may send relevant job details, your saved context, portions of your application profile, and resume content or extracted resume text to our AI provider in order to generate cover letters or longer written application answers. We instruct the model not to invent facts, but AI outputs may still be incomplete or wrong, so you remain responsible for what is submitted.
5. Service providers
We may use third-party service providers to host the application, store files and state, process payments, provide AI generation, support contact delivery, and support login providers. Today that may include providers such as Render for hosting, Supabase for storage, and OpenAI for AI generation. If we enable payment processing, email delivery, or third-party login, those providers may include services such as Stripe, Resend, or Google.
6. Cookies and session data
Apply4Me uses cookies or similar session mechanisms to keep you signed in to the dashboard and to protect authenticated routes. These session cookies are used for product functionality and security.
7. How long we keep information
We keep your workspace data for as long as needed to provide the service, operate the product, enforce our terms, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or honor your requests. If you want data deleted, use our Contact page and we can handle the request manually until self-serve deletion is fully available.
8. Sharing and disclosure
We do not sell your personal information for money. We may disclose information when needed to provide the service, to comply with law, to protect rights or safety, to investigate abuse, or as part of a merger, acquisition, financing, or business transfer.
9. Security
We use reasonable safeguards designed to protect stored information, but no security measure is perfect and no storage or transmission method is guaranteed to be fully secure. You should not upload anything you are unwilling to risk if compromised.
10. Third-party platforms
Apply4Me interacts with LinkedIn and may process information from job pages and application flows. We do not control LinkedIn’s policies, privacy practices, or decisions. Your use of LinkedIn remains subject to LinkedIn’s own terms and policies.
11. International and legal compliance
Apply4Me is operated from the United States. If you use the service from outside the United States, you understand that your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States or other jurisdictions where our providers operate.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date and may provide additional notice for material changes.
