Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2 June 2026

1. WHO WE ARE

Job Tracker is an independent application that helps you track job applications. For any privacy-related queries, contact us at babhairsalim33@gmail.com.

As a small-scale operator not engaged in large-scale systematic processing of special category data, we are not required to appoint a Data Protection Officer under UK GDPR Article 37.

2. WHAT DATA WE COLLECT

  • Account data: email address, display name (optional)
  • Application data: job applications you create — company, role, status, notes, dates, salary
  • Preferences: default view (board or table), colour theme
  • Technical data: authentication session tokens stored in HTTP-only cookies

We do not collect IP addresses, device fingerprints, behavioural analytics, or any special category data.

3. HOW WE USE YOUR DATA

  • Providing and operating the Job Tracker service
  • Authenticating your account and maintaining a secure session
  • Storing your application records so you can access them across devices
  • Applying your preferences (theme, default view)

Legal basis: Contract performance (UK GDPR Art. 6(1)(b)) — processing is necessary to deliver the service you signed up for. We have no other legal basis and do not use your data for marketing or profiling.

4. DATA RETENTION

Your data is retained for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account via Settings → Danger Zone, all personal data — your profile, email address, and all job applications — is permanently and immediately deleted from our database.

Supabase (our database provider) may retain infrastructure-level transaction logs for up to 30 days for operational integrity. These logs do not contain your application data.

5. DATA SECURITY

All data is stored in Supabase (PostgreSQL) hosted within the EU. Security measures include:

  • Encryption at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.2+)
  • Row-level security (RLS) policies so each user can only access their own records
  • Authentication via JWT tokens delivered in HTTP-only, Secure, SameSite cookies
  • No plaintext passwords stored — Supabase uses bcrypt hashing

6. THIRD PARTIES

We use the following sub-processors:

Supabase Inc. (supabase.com) — database, authentication, and file storage. Operates as a data processor under our instruction. EU data residency available. Supabase Privacy Policy ↗
Vercel Inc. (vercel.com) — application hosting and CDN. Processes HTTP request metadata transiently to serve the application. Vercel Privacy Policy ↗

No data is sold, rented, or shared with advertisers, analytics providers, or any other third party beyond the sub-processors listed above.

7. YOUR RIGHTS (UK GDPR)

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) ↗, the UK supervisory authority for data protection.

8. COOKIES

We use only strictly necessary cookies for authentication. See our Cookie Policy for a full list of cookies, their purposes, and how to control them.

9. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

If we make material changes to this policy, we will update the "last updated" date above. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance.
