Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Job Seeker ("we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal information when you use our Chrome extension ("Extension"). By using our Extension, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect

Our Extension requests access to your Google account data using the following scopes:

• Google Drive File Access: The scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.file allows our Extension to see, edit, create, and delete only the Google Drive files (such as spreadsheets) that are created by our Extension. We use this solely to save job-related data that you choose to store.
• Google Account Email: The scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email allows us to read your primary Google account email address for user identification purposes.

No other personal data is collected, stored, or processed by our Extension.

Consent for Permissions: By granting these permissions, you consent to our use of your Google account data as outlined in this policy. You can manage or revoke these permissions anytime in your Google Account security settings.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information solely for the following purposes:

• To authenticate your identity via your Google account.
• To create, save, and manage your job application data by appending job details into your designated Google Drive file (spreadsheet) created by our Extension.
• To ensure that the correct user data is updated in the appropriate file.

4. Data Storage and Security

Storage: All job data is stored in the Google Drive file (spreadsheet) specified by you during the setup process. We do not maintain any separate servers or databases for this information.

Retention: The Extension retains access to your Google account data only while it is installed and authorized. You may revoke access at any time via your Google Account settings. We do not store any user data on external servers.

Security: Access to your Google data is managed through Google's OAuth2 mechanism. All data transmissions between your browser and Google's services are encrypted (using HTTPS). We take reasonable measures to protect your information, but no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

5. Third-Party Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to outside parties except as necessary to provide our service (i.e., using Google's APIs). Google's own privacy practices apply to data stored in your Google Drive file.

For more details, please review Google's Privacy Policy here.

6. Your Rights

You may revoke the Extension's access to your Google account at any time via your Google Account settings or by removing the Extension.

GDPR & UK GDPR Compliance: Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU), you have the right to:

• Request access to the personal data we have access to.
• Request correction or deletion of your data.
• Withdraw consent for our access at any time via Google Account settings.

If you have any concerns about how we handle your data, you may contact us at akshaybennyajh@gmail.com or file a complaint with your local data protection authority.
