Privacy policy

Last updated: October 4, 2026

Introduction

TechPrufer ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share information about you when you use our website, the TechPrufer Copilot Chrome extension, and the TechPrufer connector for AI assistants.

Data we collect

We collect information that you provide directly to us and information that is automatically collected when you use our services — including usage data, device information, and approximate location based on IP address.

Chrome extension

The TechPrufer Copilot extension connects to your TechPrufer account at techprufer.com. It reads the current tab URL and page content only when you use Capture or Autofill on job or application pages. Job data you explicitly save is sent to our servers. Session cookies for techprufer.com are used so you stay signed in. Settings, cached applications, and downloaded resume PDFs (up to 10 MB) are stored locally in chrome.storage.local on your device. We do not collect browsing history, sell your data, or send form field contents except job details you choose to capture.

AI assistant connector (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, IDEs)

When you connect TechPrufer to an AI assistant, you sign in on techprufer.com and approve access; the assistant then receives an access token tied to your account. We store only a hash of that token and you can disconnect at any time from the assistant's settings or your TechPrufer MCP settings page. We receive only what the assistant sends in a tool call — for example a job description, resume text you choose to share, or a company name — never your wider conversation. Resume tailoring and parsing run on the assistant's own model; anything you share with the assistant is also governed by that provider's privacy policy. Credit usage is recorded with the name of the connecting app so we can meter credits and fix problems.

Data retention & deletion

We keep your account data — resumes, applications, and connector activity — while your account is active. You can delete individual resumes and applications at any time, from the site or through the connector. To delete your account or get a copy of your data, email privacy@techprufer.com.

Cookies & analytics

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect information about your browsing activities. This includes Google Analytics and PostHog for understanding how visitors use our site, Google AdSense for advertising on public content pages, essential cookies necessary for the website to function, and preference cookies that remember your settings.

Third parties

We use third-party services that may collect information about you, including Google Analytics and Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites; see how Google uses data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. View Google's Privacy Policy at policies.google.com/privacy.

Your rights

Visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland are asked for consent through Google's consent message and can change their choice at any time via "Privacy choices" in the footer. Anyone can opt out of personalised ads at adssettings.google.com, adjust browser settings to refuse cookies, or install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
