Privacy Policy
ApplyOrSkip (“we”, “us”, or “our”) operates www.applyorskip.com and related services (the “Service”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you use the Service.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information in the following categories:
Account Information. If you create an account, we may collect your email address and related account details.
User Content. If you submit a resume, job description, or other content to the Service, we collect and process that content to provide the analysis and features you request. Resumes and job descriptions typically contain personal data — such as names, contact details, employment history, and educational background — and we process this data solely to deliver the Service. We recommend that you avoid submitting personal data beyond what is relevant to the role you are evaluating. We do not ask you to submit sensitive categories of data such as health information, government identification numbers, or financial details, and you should omit such information unless it is directly relevant to your intended use.
Analysis and Usage Information. When you use the Service, we may collect information about your interactions with the Service, such as feature usage, page views, device information, and general usage patterns. We may also collect the results of analyses you choose to save.
Payment Information. If you purchase a subscription, payment processing is handled by our payment providers. We may receive limited information related to your subscription status, billing history, and transaction confirmation.
2. How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, operate, maintain, and improve the Service.
- Generate resume and job analysis results.

- Comply with legal obligations.
- Understand how the Service is used so we can improve it.
3. AI-Assisted Processing
To generate analysis and recommendations, we may use third-party artificial intelligence service providers to process the resume and job description content you submit. Content is transmitted only as necessary to produce the analysis results you request.
We use these services subject to applicable service terms and data processing agreements. We do not intentionally use your submitted content to train unrelated external models, and we do not use it for any purpose beyond operating, securing, and improving the Service.

Your information may be processed in countries other than your own, where data protection laws may differ. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers.
11. Third-Party Services
The Service may contain links to or integrations with third-party services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, and we are not responsible for their practices.
