Privacy Policy

The ClearHire privacy policy explains what personal data ClearHire collects, how it is stored, who can access it, and how to exercise your rights. ClearHire collects only what is necessary to deliver the service: email + name for accounts, resume content you save, employment records you create, and analytics events about feature usage. It never collects bank details, government IDs, or biometric data. ClearHire does not sell, rent, or share personal data with third parties for marketing.

Use cases

• Understanding what gets collected. For account holders: email, optional name, saved resume content, saved employment records, application tracker entries, and feature-usage analytics events. For visitors: anonymous analytics. Each category is described in the full policy with the legal basis for collection.
• Reviewing the subprocessor list. Operational subprocessors are listed by name in the policy: Firebase (storage, auth, hosting), FilesHub (file storage), and analytics vendors (Amplitude, Microsoft Clarity, Firebase Analytics). No marketing or advertising partners are involved.
• Exercising data rights. GDPR rights to access, rectify, export, and delete data are honored regardless of your location. Use /data-deletion for self-service export and deletion, or email the address in the policy for any request the self-service flow does not cover.
• Confirming GDPR / CCPA alignment. EU and California users have the same rights as everyone else. The policy lists the legal basis for each processing activity and the specific routes for each right. There is no separate paid-customer privacy regime.

How it works

1. Read the section relevant to your concern. The policy is organized by data category and right, not chronologically. Use the table of contents at the top to jump directly to the section that addresses your question.
2. Use /data-deletion for export or deletion. Both flows are self-service from settings. Export returns a JSON file of your account; deletion removes Firestore records and FilesHub files within 30 days.
3. Email for any request the self-service flow does not cover. Rectification, partial deletion, or anything regulatory benefits from email contact. Reference the policy section you are exercising rights under.

Examples

• A user wanting to confirm what data exists before deciding to keep their account. Goes to /data-deletion → Export. Receives JSON with every Firestore record, applied jobs, saved resumes, and gamification state. Decides to keep the account because nothing surprising appears.
