At Shortlistd, we take your privacy seriously. Your resume is one of your most sensitive personal documents, and we treat it with the highest level of security and respect.
When you use Shortlistd, we may collect the following information:
We believe your data belongs to you. Shortlistd is built with a local-first architecture. This means the vast majority of your resume data and job tracking information is stored directly in your browser's local storage. We do not transmit this data to our servers unless you explicitly opt-in to cloud syncing.
We use your information exclusively to:
We do not, and will never, sell your personal data to third parties, recruiters, or advertisers.
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data. All data transmitted between your browser and our servers (for authenticated users) is encrypted via TLS.
You have the right to access, update, or delete your personal information at any time. Since much of your data is stored locally, you can clear it simply by clearing your browser data. For cloud-synced accounts, you may delete your account and all associated data directly from your settings panel.
