Privacy Policy Autojob
Get clear, straightforward info on how Autojob handles your data in AI-powered job matching and interview automation.
Understanding Our Privacy Approach at Autojob
Look, I’ll be honest with you – privacy policies can be pretty dry reading. But here’s the thing… when you’re trusting our platform with your career information, interview recordings, and personal details, you deserve to know exactly how we handle that data.
From what I’ve seen working with our platform, people are genuinely concerned about their privacy (and rightfully so). That’s why we’ve built our Privacy Policy to be as transparent as possible. We’re not trying to hide anything in legal jargon – we want you to actually understand what happens to your information when you use Autojob.
Our platform processes thousands of job applications and interview sessions daily, which means we’re handling a lot of sensitive data. Everything from your resume details to your interview performance gets processed through our AI systems. But don’t worry – we’ve got strict controls in place to protect all of it.
| Data Type | Purpose | Protection Level |
|---|---|---|
| Resume & Profile Data | Job matching accuracy | Encrypted storage |
| Interview Recordings | Performance feedback | Access limited to user & AI |
| Usage Analytics | Platform improvement | Aggregated & anonymized |
What Information We Actually Collect
When you create an account with us, we collect the basics you’d expect. Your name, email, phone number, location – the standard stuff. But since we’re an AI-powered job matching and interview automation platform, we also gather some additional information that helps our algorithms work better.
Personal Profile Data
- Resume content and work history
- Skills and certifications you list
- Job preferences and salary expectations
- Educational background
Interview-Related Information
- Video and audio recordings from practice sessions
- Performance analytics and feedback scores
- Interview scheduling preferences
- Communication with potential employers through our platform
Platform Usage Data
- How you navigate through our interface
- Which features you use most often
- Time spent on different sections
- Device and browser information
How Our AI Systems Process Your Data
This is where things get interesting (and where most people have questions). Our AI job matching system analyzes your profile against thousands of job postings to find the best fits. It’s looking at skills, experience level, location preferences – all the factors that actually matter for job compatibility.
The interview automation side works a bit differently. When you practice interviews on our platform, our AI evaluates things like:
- Response quality and relevance
- Communication clarity
- Technical knowledge demonstration
- Confidence indicators in speech patterns
Now, I know what you’re thinking – “Is an AI judging my personality?” Well, actually… sort of, but not in a creepy way. We’re analyzing communication patterns that correlate with interview success, not making judgments about who you are as a person.
All this processing happens on secure servers with encrypted data transmission. The AI models themselves don’t store personal information – they work with anonymized patterns and return insights without keeping copies of your actual content.
| AI Feature | Function | Accuracy |
|---|---|---|
| Job Matching | Scans profiles & vacancies | 92% match relevance |
| Interview Evaluation | Analyzes speech & content | 88% performance correlation |
| Scheduling Automation | Auto-arranges interviews | 99% response rate |
Data Sharing and Third-Party Access
Here’s something people always want to know upfront – who else sees their information? The short answer is: not many people, and only when it makes sense for the service.
We share data with:
- Potential employers (but only when you apply for their positions)
- Integration partners (like ATS systems that employers use)
- Service providers (cloud hosting, analytics tools we use to run the platform)
We never share data with:
- Data brokers or marketing companies
- Social media platforms for advertising
- Anyone who’s just fishing for personal information
When employers see your profile, they get the information relevant to the job application. They’re not seeing your practice interview recordings or internal performance scores – that stays with us to help improve your experience.
The integration partners thing is worth explaining. Many companies use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to manage hiring. When you apply through our platform, we might need to send your application data to their ATS. But this only happens for positions you’ve actually applied to.
Your Control Over Personal Information
This is probably the most important section, honestly. You’re not stuck with whatever privacy settings we choose – you’ve got real control over your data.
Account Settings You Can Adjust
- Profile visibility to employers
- Interview recording retention periods
- Email notification preferences
- Data sharing permissions for integrations
Data Access Rights
- Download all your personal data
- See exactly what information we have about you
- Review how our AI systems have categorized your skills
- Check which employers have viewed your profile
Deletion Options
- Remove specific interview recordings
- Delete your entire account and associated data
- Opt out of certain AI analysis features
- Withdraw consent for data processing
The deletion process is pretty straightforward, actually. If you decide to leave our platform, we’ll remove your personal information within 30 days. Some data might stick around longer for legal compliance (like if there’s an ongoing dispute), but the vast majority gets wiped.
You can also do partial deletions. Maybe you want to keep your account but remove those early practice interviews where you were still figuring things out. No problem – just select what you want gone.
Security Measures and Data Protection
Security isn’t just a checkbox for us – it’s built into everything we do. When you’re uploading resumes and doing video interviews, that information needs serious protection.
| Security Layer | Implementation | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Encryption | AES-256 for stored data, TLS 1.3 for transmission | Prevents unauthorized access |
| Access Controls | Role-based permissions, multi-factor authentication | Limits who can see what |
| Monitoring | Real-time threat detection, audit logging | Catches suspicious activity |
Our servers are hosted in SOC 2 compliant data centers with 24/7 monitoring. These facilities have biometric access controls, redundant power systems, and environmental monitoring. Basically, they’re more secure than most banks.
Our team members can only access the minimum data they need to do their jobs. Customer service might see your account details, but they can’t access your interview recordings. Engineers working on the AI systems see anonymized data patterns, not your personal information.
We also do regular security audits and penetration testing. It’s like having someone try to break into our systems (with permission) to find weaknesses before the bad guys do.
International Data Transfers and Compliance
Since we operate globally, your data might cross international borders. This sounds scarier than it actually is – we’ve got proper safeguards in place.
| Region | Regulation | Our Approach |
|---|---|---|
| European Union | GDPR | Full compliance with consent mechanisms |
| United Kingdom | UK GDPR | Data Protection Impact Assessments |
| United States | CCPA, state privacy laws | Transparent data practices |
When data moves between countries, we use Standard Contractual Clauses approved by data protection authorities. These are basically legal agreements that ensure your data gets the same level of protection regardless of where it’s processed.
For EU users, you’ve got additional rights under GDPR – like the right to data portability and the right to object to certain processing. We’ve built these rights directly into our platform settings so you don’t need to email us every time you want to exercise them.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Alright, let’s talk about cookies. Not the chocolate chip kind – the digital tracking kind that everyone’s always asking about.
We use cookies, but we’re pretty conservative about it. Here’s what we actually track:
Essential Cookies
- Login session management
- Security tokens
- Platform functionality preferences
Analytics Cookies
- How people use different features
- Performance metrics for our AI systems
- Error tracking to fix bugs
Optional Cookies
- Job recommendation improvements
- Interview scheduling convenience features
You can disable the optional stuff without breaking the platform. The essential cookies are… well, essential. Without them, you can’t stay logged in or use core features.
We don’t use advertising cookies or social media tracking pixels. We’re not building profiles to sell to marketers – we’re focused on helping you find jobs and improve your interview skills.
Children’s Privacy and Age Restrictions
Our platform is designed for working professionals and job seekers, which means you need to be at least 16 years old to create an account. We don’t knowingly collect information from younger users.
If you’re under 18, we recommend having a parent or guardian review this Privacy Policy with you. While our platform is generally safe for teens looking for part-time work or internships, it’s always good to have adult guidance when sharing personal information online.
If we discover that someone under 16 has created an account, we’ll delete it and all associated data. No questions asked, no penalties – we just want to follow privacy laws and keep younger users safe.
Updates and Policy Changes
Privacy policies aren’t set in stone – they evolve as our platform grows and privacy laws change. When we update our Privacy Policy, here’s how we handle it:
Major Changes
- Email notification to all users
- Prominent notice on the platform
- 30-day notice period before changes take effect
- Option to review and accept or close your account
Minor Updates
- Updated policy posted on our website
- Notification in your account dashboard
- Changes take effect immediately (for things like clarifying existing practices)
We keep a version history of our Privacy Policy so you can see exactly what changed and when. It’s available in your account settings under “Privacy History.”
The goal is transparency, not confusion. If we’re making changes that affect how we handle your data, you’ll know about it well in advance.
❓ FAQ
Can I use Autojob without agreeing to data processing for AI job matching?
Unfortunately, no. The AI job matching is core to how our platform works. It’s like asking if you can use a search engine without it indexing web pages – the technology requires data processing to function. However, you can control how your profile is shared with employers and adjust privacy settings for optional features.
How long do you keep my interview recordings?
By default, we keep practice interview recordings for 12 months to track your improvement over time. You can delete them earlier if you want, or extend the retention period up to 24 months. Interview recordings shared with employers follow their retention policies, which we’ll show you before you submit any application.
What happens to my data if Autojob gets acquired by another company?
If we’re acquired, user data would transfer to the new company, but they’d need to honor the privacy commitments we’ve made to you. We’d notify all users at least 30 days before any acquisition that affects data handling, and you’d have the option to delete your account before the transfer.
Can employers see my salary expectations and other private preferences?
Only if you choose to share them. Your salary expectations, location flexibility, and other preferences are used by our AI to match you with suitable positions, but employers only see this information when you apply to their specific jobs. You control what gets shared in each application.
Do you sell user data to third parties?
No, we don’t sell personal data to anyone. Our business model is based on subscription fees and employer partnerships for job placement services. Selling user data would undermine the trust that’s essential to our platform working effectively.
How can I download all my data from Autojob?
Go to your account settings and click “Data Export.” We’ll generate a comprehensive file with all your personal information, interview recordings, application history, and AI-generated insights. The download usually takes 24-48 hours to prepare, and we’ll email you when it’s ready.
