Privacy Policy

2.1 Your account

When you open Jobfind, it creates a private guest account for you automatically (a Firebase anonymous account). You do not need to register to use the App, and a guest account holds only a random identifier.

If you choose Save with email, you add an email address and a password to that same account so you can keep your data if you change phones. Passwords are handled by Firebase Authentication; we never see or store your password.

2.2 Your career data

You decide what to add. Depending on how you use the App, this can include:

• Career preferences: country, job titles, experience level, work mode and employment type
• Saved jobs, and the applications you track, including any notes you write
• Your CV: name, headline, email, phone, location, links, summary, work experience, education, skills, languages and certifications, whether you type them in or import a PDF or Word file
• Saved CV versions, including versions tailored to a particular job
• Your AutoApply rules (job titles, countries, filters and daily limits), and application packages the App prepares for you to review
• Your notification choices

This data is stored in your account in Google Firebase (Cloud Firestore) and is readable only by your account. A CV file you import is read once to extract its text and is not stored.

2.3 AI features (Groq)

When you ask for an AI feature (importing a CV, improving CV text, checking your fit for a job, tailoring your CV, drafting a cover letter, practicing interview answers, or preparing an application package), the relevant text is sent from our server to our AI provider, Groq, to generate the result. That text can include parts of your CV, a job listing, and your own practice answers.

• Before sending, we remove your email address, phone number, address and links from the CV text.
• Your name is included only when drafting a cover letter.
• Prompts are written to treat your CV and job listings as data, and not to invent qualifications or experience.
• We keep a usage record for each AI request (which feature, when, the model used, token counts and any error code) to apply daily limits and understand cost. It does not contain your CV text, prompts or results.
• AI output is shown to you as a suggestion. Nothing is applied to your CV or sent to an employer without your action.

Groq handles requests under its own terms and privacy policy (see Section 5).

2.4 Job listings and reports

Listings come from third-party job boards (currently Remotive and Arbeitnow) and contain no information about you. When you open a listing's link, you leave Jobfind and that site's own privacy policy applies; we cannot see what you do there.

If you report a listing, we store the listing, your reason, your optional note and your account identifier, so we can review it and remove bad listings.

2.5 Notifications (Firebase Cloud Messaging)

Notifications are off until you switch them on in Settings. If you do, we store a push token for your device and your app language, and may send job alerts that match your AutoApply rules, notices that an application package is ready for review, and follow-up reminders about applications you opened. You can turn them off in the App or in Android system settings at any time, which removes the device registration.

2.6 Analytics, crash reports and security (Firebase)

We use Google Firebase Analytics to understand which features are used, with events such as "job saved", "CV exported" or "onboarding completed". These events never include your search text, CV content, contact details or notes. Firebase Crashlytics collects crash reports (device model, operating system version and error traces) to fix bugs; they are not linked to your CV. Firebase Remote Config delivers feature switches, and Firebase App Check helps confirm that requests come from the genuine App.

2.7 Advertising (Google AdMob)

The free version of Jobfind may show ads through Google AdMob (Publisher ID: ca-app-pub-7925163364817373): a clearly labeled banner between search results, an optional rewarded video that you can choose to watch for extra AI uses, and, occasionally, a full-screen ad after you close a job. Ads are never shown inside your CV, CV exports, or while you edit, upload or apply. People with an active Jobfind Pro subscription see no ads.

AdMob may collect and process your Google Advertising ID, approximate location derived from your IP address, and ad impression and interaction data. Ad requests do not include your CV, job searches or any other data you enter in Jobfind.

Where required by law (for example in the EEA and the UK), Jobfind uses Google's User Messaging Platform to ask for your consent first, and you can change your choice later in Settings under "Ad privacy choices". Jobfind is not intended for children, and ad requests are not child-directed. Rewards for watching a rewarded ad are granted by our server only after Google verifies the view.

2.8 Subscriptions (RevenueCat and Google Play)

If a Jobfind Pro subscription is offered and you subscribe, payment is handled by Google Play; we never see your card details. We use RevenueCat to manage subscription status. RevenueCat receives your account identifier and purchase information, and tells our server whether Pro is active so we can unlock it.
