Local-First Architecture
Your profiles, job answers, and documents are kept entirely on your device. We do not harvest them to our servers.
Secure Syncing
Optional account syncing runs over encrypted cloud databases with strict security rules, giving you absolute control.
Zero Selling
We do not monetize your data, sell details to recruiters, or share lists with third parties. Ever.
Introduction & Philosophy
InternshipUncle Autoapply is a local-first Chrome extension designed to help you organize and automate your job applications. Unlike typical automation platforms that scrape and centralize applicant profiles, we operate on a core security belief: your private data should reside on your machine. This policy details exactly how we manage, protect, and handle data when you use the extension.
Local Storage & Local-First Design
By default, InternshipUncle Autoapply runs entirely offline. All data used to autofill job applications is stored locally on your browser:
- Profile Details: Your name, email, phone number, educational background, and work histories are saved locally using
chrome.storage.local. - Documents: Uploaded resumes and cover letters are converted and kept in your browser's private database (IndexedDB).
- Form Memories: The custom questions and answers you save to teach the copilot how to autofill specific portals are stored locally.
Because of this design, no central database stores your profile fields or credentials by default. If you uninstall the extension, all locally held data is cleared immediately.
Optional Authentication & Account Sync
To unlock advanced features, subscription updates, or to sync profiles across multiple devices, you may choose to log in.
- Google Sign-In: When signing in via Google, we receive and securely store basic account fields (such as your User ID, email address, and name) in our Supabase database.
- Subscription Info: We associate your account with your subscription status (Free/Pro tiers) to unlock appropriate usage rights.
- Secure Transfer: All cloud communication is carried out over encrypted HTTPS protocols, ensuring your basic user profile is shielded during transit.
Optional Analytics & Application Tracking
If you are authenticated and opt into performance dashboard tracking, InternshipUncle Autoapply logs high-level structural submission data to build your application history:
- Logged Fields: Job application URLs, company names, job titles, and timestamps of submission.
- Purpose: This log helps you review your daily goals, track auto-applied jobs, and manage follow-ups.
- Non-Logged Fields: We never log your actual form answers, passwords, secret values, or resume text contents to these trackers.
Strict Security & Zero-Use Commitments
We hold our extension to the highest level of trust. We abide by three strict "never" policies regarding user information:
Your Control: Export & Permanent Deletion
You retain complete ownership over the lifecycle of your data:
- Export Profiles: You can export your saved profile attributes and form configurations as a standard JSON file at any time.
- Local Purge: You can clear your local database in the Extension Settings with a single click.
- Cloud Erasure: If you created an account, you can trigger permanent deletion of your cloud record and associated analytics logs instantly from your dashboard profile settings, or by visiting our Account Deletion Page.
Contact & Updates
We may update this policy occasionally to align with new features or security guidelines. If significant updates occur, we will highlight the change in the extension dashboard.
