Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2026
The short version
Your resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn About text are analysed entirely in memory and are never written to disk, stored in a database, or logged — not even temporarily. Accounts are entirely optional (see below) — if you don't sign in, we don't know who you are, and we can't look up what you checked, because nothing is kept.
What we process
When you upload a resume (PDF or DOCX) or paste text, it's held in server memory only for the duration of that single request — parsed, scored, and discarded the moment the response is sent back to your browser. The optional job-description text you paste is handled the same way: read once, used to compute a keyword match, then forgotten.
Optional accounts
Signing in (email link, no password) is entirely optional and only unlocks one thing: a score history that follows you across devices instead of living only in one browser. If you sign in, we store only: your score, the type of check (resume/cover letter/ LinkedIn), the filename, the date, and your email (for sign-in). We never store the resume, cover letter, or LinkedIn text itself for signed-in users either — the same in-memory-only processing above applies regardless of whether you're signed in. You can delete your history at any time; not signing in changes nothing else about how the tool works.
What we don't do
- No cookies used for tracking or advertising
- No resume/cover-letter/LinkedIn text is ever written to a database or log file, signed in or not
- No data is sold or shared with third parties — there is no content data to share
What is stored locally on your device
Your dark/light mode preference is saved in your browser's local storage so the app remembers it next time. This stays entirely on your device and is never transmitted to us.
Technical logs
Like any web server, our hosting infrastructure (Google Cloud Run) may retain standard request metadata (IP address, timestamp, response code) for a limited period for security and abuse-prevention purposes (e.g. rate limiting). This does not include resume content or job description text, and is not used to identify individuals.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the "Last updated" date above will change. Continued use of ATSMeter after an update means you accept the revised policy.
