appli. Privacy Policy

What data Appli handles

• Job application data — company name, role, status, location, skills, and salary — stored locally in your browser using chrome.storage.local. Never sent to any server.
• Job page text — when you click "Log this job", the visible text of the job posting page is sent to the Anthropic API to extract skills, salary, and a brief description. This text is not stored by Appli.
• Anthropic API key — if you provide one, it is stored locally in chrome.storage.local and used only to make AI enrichment requests. It is never transmitted to any server other than Anthropic's.

Third-party services

Appli uses the Anthropic API (claude.ai) for AI enrichment of job postings. When enrichment runs, a portion of the job description text is sent to Anthropic's servers. Anthropic's own privacy policy applies to this data: anthropic.com/privacy.

Appli has no other third-party integrations and does not use analytics, tracking, or advertising services.

Data storage

All application data is stored locally on your device using the Chrome Extensions chrome.storage.local API. Appli does not operate any servers or databases. Your data is never uploaded, synced, or backed up to any external service.

LinkedIn interaction

On LinkedIn, Appli monitors for Easy Apply form submissions to automatically log applications. It reads job title, company name, and description from the LinkedIn page you have open. No LinkedIn credentials or personal profile data are accessed or stored.

Permissions explained

Your rights

Since all data is stored locally on your device, you have full control. You can delete all tracked applications at any time using the "Clear all" button in the extension settings. Uninstalling the extension removes all stored data.

Children's privacy

Appli is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from children.
