Introduction
Welcome to JobSnap, operated at usejobsnap.com. We are job seekers ourselves, and we built JobSnap because we know how stressful and overwhelming the job hunt can be. Our mission is to make your tracking as effortless as possible while maintaining the highest standard of privacy.
This Privacy Policy explains how JobSnap (“we,” “our,” or “us”) collects, uses, and safeguards your information when you use the JobSnap Chrome Extension, our website, and our related sync services.
Our Privacy Philosophy: We believe in the Principle of Least Privilege. We only collect the absolute minimum data required to deliver a premium, automated tracking experience. We do not access your full Gmail inbox, scan your web history, or trade your data.
Information We Collect
To provide your job dashboard and automated tracking features, we process and sync the following categories of data:
Information You Provide Directly
- •Google Account Profile: Email, name, and profile picture collected via secure Google OAuth2 solely for user authentication and cross-device sync.
- •Manual Entries: Job details (company name, job title, application status, salary range, interview dates, URL, and personal notes) you add yourself.
Auto-Pilot Parsing (Gmail Forwarding)
- •Private Forwarding Email: We generate a unique forwarding address (e.g. `name.xyz@usejobsnap.com`) for you.
- •Email Content Scoped: Only email confirmations you *voluntarily forward* to this address are processed by our secure parser to extract job metrics.
Local Storage & Analytics
- Extension Local Cache (`chrome.storage.local`): Required to cache settings, onboarding state, and offline job profiles, ensuring rapid interface responsiveness and offline utility.
- Aggregated Usage Stats: We collect fully anonymous telemetry (e.g., dashboard opens, click actions) through Google Analytics 4 to identify visual interface lags. No personal identifiers or data entries are included.
How We Use Your Data
JobSnap uses your processed information strictly to power and maintain your core tracking utilities. Specifically:
- Displaying and formatting your job board.
- Syncing data across your browsers and devices.
- Sending alerts for upcoming interviews.
- Processing secure feature trial upgrades.
Data Storage & Security
We treat your data like we treat our own. We have engineered the JobSnap platform to use enterprise-grade storage models:
Third-Party Services
We only integrate with established, highly secure cloud infrastructure companies. We only provide the minimum necessary context for them to execute secure transactions:
| Partner | Utility Description | Privacy Framework |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase | Secure cloud hosting, RLS tables, and account sync profiles. | Policy |
| Google OAuth | Secure Google identity verification client handshakes. | Policy |
| Dodo Payments | Secure payment infrastructure and Pro subscription checkouts. | Policy |
| Google Analytics | Anonymized extension interface telemetry. | Policy |
Your Rights & Choices
You own your career records and enjoy total, unrestricted authority over your details:
Data Retention
We store job rows only for as long as your sync account is active.
If you decide to delete your account or submit an email request for data clearance, we perform automated hard deletions across all active production servers and databases **within 30 days**. We do not retain ghost profiles or cold backup lines of deleted users.
Children’s Privacy
JobSnap is designed for adults navigating professional career searches. We do not knowingly collect, parse, or keep personally identifiable details of children under the age of **13**.
If we discover we have accidentally recorded information for a minor under 13, we immediately execute priority purge protocols to remove those rows.
Changes to This Policy
We may periodically refine this privacy structure to accommodate new browser sandbox compliance protocols or system additions.
We will announce any updates by updating the date marker at the top of this page. If the adjustments significantly modify how your data is synced, we will alert you via an extension dashboard notice or direct email update.
