7. Cookies
We use a session cookie to keep you signed in. This cookie is strictly necessary and does not track you across other websites.
We also use the following third-party tools, gated behind your explicit cookie consent:
- Google Analytics 4 — website analytics (anonymized, EU data processing)
- Google Tag Manager — tag management container
- Meta Pixel & Conversions API — advertising measurement; browser tracking requires consent; server-side sends only a SHA-256 hashed email (never plain text) to measure registrations
All browser-side tracking fires only after you click "Accept" on our cookie banner. You may withdraw consent at any time by clearing your cookies and declining on your next visit. Legal basis: your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
For full details, see our Cookie Policy.
8. AI Data Processing (DPA Disclosure)
How we use AI services with your data:
- CV Parsing: When you upload a CV, the full text is sent to Mistral AI's API to extract skills, experience, education, and generate your seniority score. If Mistral is temporarily unavailable, Google Gemini Flash API is used as a fallback.
- Cover Letter Generation: When you generate a cover letter, the job description and your CV summary are sent to Mistral AI's API to produce a tailored draft. Google Gemini is used as a fallback if needed.
- Job Matching: Your CV profile (extracted skills, seniority) is used locally within our system to score jobs — no AI API call is made per job match.
AI provider data handling:
- Mistral AI (primary): EU-based. Data processed in the EU under GDPR. Mistral does not use your CV or cover letter data to train AI models. See Mistral AI Privacy Policy.
- Google Gemini (fallback): US-based. When used, data is transferred to the US under Standard Contractual Clauses (GDPR Article 46). Google does not use API inputs for model training. See Google Privacy Policy.
You may delete your CV at any time from the CV page. Deletion removes all parsed data from our systems immediately.
9. Data transfers
Your data is stored on servers in the EU. AI features are processed primarily by Mistral AI (EU-based, no cross-border transfer). When Gemini is used as a fallback, data is transferred to the US under Standard Contractual Clauses compliant with GDPR Article 46.
