Privacy Policy

Last Updated: February 28, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Tailored ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use our website, browser extension, and resume tailoring services (collectively, the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to the collection, use, and sharing of your information as described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use the Service.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us and information collected automatically when you use the Service.

Information You Provide

Resume Content: When you upload a resume, we process the document to extract your professional information including work history, education, skills, and other career-related content.
Job Descriptions: Job postings you paste, search for, or import via our browser extension are processed to match your resume content with job requirements.
Email Address (Optional): If you choose to receive your tailored resumes via email, we collect your email address solely for delivery purposes.
Feedback and Communications: If you contact us for support or provide feedback, we collect the content of those communications.

Information Collected Automatically

Usage Information: We collect information about how you interact with the Service, including features used, actions taken, and time spent.
Device Information: We collect information about the device you use, including browser type, operating system, and IP address.
Session Data: We use session cookies to maintain your session state while you use the Service.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

Process and analyze your resume content
Generate tailored resume variants
Match your skills with job requirements
Deliver resumes via email (if requested)

3. AI-Powered Features

Tailored uses artificial intelligence to power core features of the Service, including:

  • Resume parsing and profile extraction
  • Job description analysis and keyword identification
  • Resume tailoring and content optimization
  • Skills matching and gap analysis

Third-Party AI Providers

We use Anthropic's Claude API to power our AI features. When your content is processed, it is sent to Anthropic's servers. Anthropic does not use your data to train their AI models when accessed via their API. For more information, see Anthropic's Privacy Policy.

AI Content Disclaimer

AI-generated content is provided for assistance only. You are solely responsible for reviewing, editing, and verifying all AI-generated content before using it. We do not guarantee accuracy, completeness, or suitability for any specific job application.

4. Browser Extension

Our browser extension allows you to import job postings from job sites like LinkedIn, Indeed, and Glassdoor.

Data Collected: Job title, company, location, and job description from pages you choose to import.
How It Works: The extension only activates when you click to import a job. It does not track your browsing history or collect data from pages you don't explicitly import.
Connection: The extension connects to your Tailored session using a secure, time-limited linking code.

5. Data Retention

All session data is automatically deleted within 24 hours.

We do not create permanent user accounts. Your resume, job descriptions, and generated content are stored only for the duration of your session and automatically purged within 24 hours.

We may retain aggregated, anonymized usage data for analytics purposes. This data cannot be used to identify you.

6. What We Do NOT Do

Sell your personal information
Use your resume to train AI models
Share data with third parties for marketing
Store data beyond the 24-hour window
Create permanent user profiles
Track your browsing across other websites

Legal Requirements

However, no method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
