Scope
This policy explains how Emploive, LLC handles personal information.
It applies to our website, iPhone app, job alerts, and related services.
Information we collect
Account information
We collect your name, email address, account credentials, profile image, sign-in method, acceptance date, and terms version.
Preferences and content
We store your job trackers, filters, notification settings, prompts, referrals, and feedback.
We also store resumes, application history, and the profile details you choose to save for application forms.
These details can include contact information, work history, education, and optional demographic answers.
When you choose to read a resume with AI, we send it to OpenRouter and its model provider.
The app asks for your permission before sending the resume. You can enter your details without AI.
Location access is optional. The app uses Apple location services to suggest places.
We store the places you select as job preferences. We do not store your device coordinates.
Billing information
We store Apple transaction identifiers, Stripe customer and subscription identifiers, plan status, and billing dates.
Apple or Stripe processes your payment details. Emploive does not store full payment card numbers.
Usage and device information
We collect page activity, product events, referral data, device details, errors, and network information.

Our iPhone app stores an Apple push token when you enable push notifications.

Cookies and similar technology
We use cookies and local storage for sign-in, security, settings, attribution, and analytics.
You can limit cookies through your browser. Some limits can stop account features from working.
Data retention
We keep personal information while your account is active and as needed to provide Emploive.
When you delete your account, we delete it with your trackers, alerts, applications, and resumes.
We keep an anonymous record of the kind of account that closed and the reason you gave.
That record holds no name, email address, or account number, so it cannot point back to you.
We can keep records longer for security, disputes, tax, accounting, and legal duties.
Backup copies can remain for a limited period after deletion.
Security
We use reasonable controls to protect information. No storage or transmission system is completely secure.
Your choices and rights
You can change tracker settings and notification choices in Emploive.
You can manage a paid subscription through the Stripe billing portal in your profile.
You can request access, correction, deletion, or export of your personal information.
You can also object to or limit some uses where local law gives that right.
In the iPhone app or on the website, open Profile and choose Delete account to delete your account and saved data.
Cancel your Apple subscription in Apple Settings. Account deletion does not cancel it.
Email [email protected] to make a privacy request. We can verify your identity first.
We will not treat you unfairly because you used a privacy right.
Regional privacy rights
Privacy rights vary by location. We honor requests when applicable law requires them.
Authorized agents can submit requests where local law permits. We can ask for proof of authority.
