4. AI Processing
Seekr uses artificial intelligence (Google Gemini) to parse resumes, score job matches, detect ghost job listings, generate cover letters, and create interview preparation materials. Your data is sent to these AI services solely for the purpose of providing Service features. We do not use your data to train third-party AI models.

6. Data Retention
We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you the Service. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal, accounting, or compliance purposes. Parsed resume data and generated content (cover letters, interview prep) are deleted when you delete your account.
7. Cookies
We use essential cookies required for authentication and session management. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies. We do not participate in interest-based advertising cohorts (FLoC/Topics API is explicitly disabled).

- Encryption in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest.
- Row-level security policies on all database tables.
- Rate limiting on all API endpoints.
- Regular security audits and dependency updates.
No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
