This Privacy Policy describes how AlignUp collects and uses data through its website, services, and Chrome Extension.

1. Information We Collect

When you use AlignUp, we may collect the following information:

  • Personalize your experience and improve our recommendations.
  • Communicate with you about your account and service updates.
  • Analyze usage patterns to improve the platform.

3. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored securely using industry-standard encryption at rest and in transit. Resume content is processed for analysis purposes and is not shared with third parties beyond the AI services required to provide our core functionality.

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services to operate the platform:

  • Authentication providers (e.g., Google) for account sign-in.
  • AI processing services for resume analysis and job matching.
  • Analytics tools to understand how the platform is used.

5. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access and download your personal data.
  • Request correction of inaccurate data.
  • Request deletion of your account and associated data.
  • Opt out of non-essential communications.

6. Cookies

We use essential cookies for authentication and session management. Analytics cookies are used to understand usage patterns and improve the service.

7. Chrome Extension (AlignUp Chrome Extension Privacy)

This section applies specifically to the AlignUp Chrome Extension.

Data Collected by the Extension

The AlignUp Chrome Extension accesses job description content from the current webpage only when an authenticated user manually clicks the “Add” button in the extension.

The extension does not collect data automatically, does not run in the background, and does not access browsing history or unrelated webpage content.

How the Data Is Used

The collected job description content is used solely to:

  • Extract job information
  • Save job details to the user’s AlignUp account
  • Enable job-related features within the AlignUp service

The data is not used for advertising and is not sold or shared for purposes outside the extension’s core functionality.

Permissions

The extension uses limited Chrome permissions (such as activeTab) to read the content of the current page only after user interaction.

Data Security and Retention

Job data is transmitted securely and stored only as necessary to provide the requested features. Users may delete saved job data through their account.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy on this page with a revised date.
