Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 7, 2026

Overview

HireSignal (“we”, “our”) helps job seekers evaluate whether a job post looks real, suspicious, or fake. This policy covers the HireSignal website (hiresignal-kappa.vercel.app) and the HireSignal Chrome extension.

What we collect

  • Account: Google sign-in provides your name, email, and profile photo via Firebase Authentication.
  • Job checks: Job URLs you submit, extracted post details, trust reports, and related usage (e.g. daily credit counts).
  • Optional resume: PDF/TXT or pasted text you upload for CV-fit scoring. Use this only if you choose to.
  • Feedback: Messages you send through the feedback form.
  • Chrome extension: The extension stores your preferred HireSignal app URL in Chrome sync storage. When you click “Check job”, it opens HireSignal with the current job page URL prefilled. It does not sell or share LinkedIn browsing history.

How we use data

  • Run job trust checks and show reports
  • Enforce daily free credits and sign-in
  • Improve scam detection and product quality
  • Respond to feedback you submit

We do not sell personal data. We do not use the extension to inject ads or track you across unrelated websites.

Permissions (Chrome)

  • activeTab / tabs: Read the current tab URL so we can prefill a job check.
  • storage: Save your HireSignal base URL preference.
  • linkedin.com: Show a “Check job” button on LinkedIn job pages.
  • hiresignal-kappa.vercel.app: Open the HireSignal web app for the scan (auth and credits happen there).

Third parties

We use Firebase Authentication (Google) for sign-in, hosting/providers such as Vercel for the website, and optional enrichment services (e.g. Apify) to fetch public job/company signals. Those providers process data under their own policies as needed to run the service.

Retention

Check history and account-linked data are kept while your account is active and as needed to operate the product. You can request deletion by contacting us.

HireSignal is a decision aid. Trust scores are estimates, not legal advice or a guarantee that a job is legitimate.
