Privacy.By default.

Who we are

Your Jobs (the “App”) is published by an independent developer based in the United Kingdom (“we”, “us”). We are the controller of personal information you choose to send us, such as a support email. For privacy questions, contact support@example.com.

The short version

The App has no Your Jobs account and no developer-operated server. Your saved jobs, applications, notes, saved answers, equal-opportunities answers, saved searches and CVs are stored on your device and, if you use iCloud, synced between your own devices through your private iCloud account. We do not receive them and cannot read them. To show you vacancies, the App downloads them directly from public job boards, as described below.

What the App stores, and where

Applications, saved jobs, notes, saved answers, equal-opportunities answers and saved searches are stored using Apple’s SwiftData framework. CV files you add are stored in the App’s iCloud Documents folder. A few small settings — such as companies you’ve added and which CV is selected — use iCloud key-value storage. If iCloud is turned on for your Apple Account, all of this syncs through the private database of your own iCloud account, where Apple stores it under Apple’s own terms. That private database belongs to your Apple Account: we do not operate a separate copy and have no way to read it. You can turn iCloud off for Your Jobs in Settings to keep everything on the device.

The index of public vacancies, and the times boards were last refreshed, are kept on your device only.

Equal-opportunities answers

Many application forms ask optional diversity questions. If you choose to record your answers in the App so it can fill those questions for you, they are stored and synced exactly as above — on your devices and in your private iCloud. Every topic starts blank, and the App never fills a question you haven’t answered. You can clear any answer at any time.

How the App finds jobs

Vacancies come from public job boards that employers publish themselves — including Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, SmartRecruiters, Rippling, HRMOS and NHS Jobs. The App downloads these listings directly from your device; there is no Your Jobs server in between. Like any web request, these services can see your device’s IP address and the request being made. They do not receive your name, your answers, your CVs or any identifier from us.

• Searching. Most searching happens against the index on your device. To find more matches, the words of a search and the country you’ve chosen may be sent to Workable’s and NHS Jobs’ public search feeds.
• Adding a company. When you add a company by name, the App checks the job-board services above for a board matching that name.
• Background refresh and alerts. iOS may wake the App in the background to refresh boards and check your saved searches. Alerts are generated on your device.

Applying on an employer’s site

When you open an application, the employer’s own page loads in a browser inside the App. You are then dealing with that employer and the service they use to receive applications, and anything you submit goes to them under their privacy policy, not ours. Assist fills fields on your device from answers you’ve saved; we never see what is filled or sent. Sites you visit may set cookies in the App’s browser, as they would in Safari.

Writing help

Writing help (shortening, adapting or drafting an answer) uses Apple’s on-device Foundation Models, part of Apple Intelligence. Your text and CV are processed on your device and are not sent to us or to any AI provider.

Jobs you share into the App

If you share a job link to Your Jobs from another app, or paste one in, the link is read on your device to identify the job and its board, and the job is saved with your other records.

Purchases

Your Jobs Pro is sold through Apple’s App Store using StoreKit. Apple processes payment and makes purchase and entitlement information available to the App so it can unlock Pro. We do not receive your payment details. Apple handles billing, refunds and taxes under the Apple Media Services Terms.

Information available through Apple

Apple may provide developers with aggregated App Store sales, download and usage reports, and — if you have chosen to share with app developers in Settings — crash and diagnostic information. Apple controls this information under its own privacy terms. We don’t use it to build advertising profiles or to track you.

This website and support

This website is hosted by GitHub Pages. GitHub may process IP addresses, request details and security logs when the site is visited. The site serves its own fonts and loads no third-party scripts, advertising cookies or analytics. If you email support, our email provider processes your address, message and attachments so we can read and answer it.

Why we use support information, and for how long

We use support correspondence to answer your request, diagnose problems and keep an appropriate record of help given. Our lawful basis under UK GDPR is our legitimate interest in supporting and improving the App. We keep support messages only as long as reasonably needed, normally no longer than 24 months after the conversation closes, unless a longer period is required for a legal, security or accounting reason.

Service providers and international transfers

Apple, GitHub, our email provider and the job-board services the App contacts process information under their own terms and may do so outside the United Kingdom. Where UK data-protection law applies to a transfer we make, we rely on an adequacy decision or appropriate contractual safeguards.

Security

We rely on Apple’s platform security — device encryption, iCloud and the App’s sandbox — and take reasonable measures appropriate to the limited information we handle. No storage or transmission method is completely secure.

Children

Your Jobs is a job-search tool for a general adult audience and is not directed at children. We do not ask for an age or create accounts.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict or object to the use of personal information we control, and to complain to a regulator. Contact support@example.com to make a request. UK residents can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk. Content on your devices or in your private iCloud is managed through the App, your device or your iCloud settings — deleting the App and its iCloud data removes it, because we do not hold a copy.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when the App, this website, our providers or the law change. We will update the date above, and give additional notice where a change materially affects how we use personal information.
