Privacy and data use
Pitchly Job Scout brings the job listing you choose into your connected Pitchly workspace for job preparation and interview practice.
What the extension reads
On supported job sites, Job Scout reads page text and job metadata on your device to detect a listing and show its capture card. This can include the job URL, title, employer, location, salary and description. If a page has no structured description, other page text may be included, including displayed contact names or email addresses. The toolbar action can also read a careers page you choose to capture.
Job Scout does not read your browser history database, collect passwords or payment details, or request your device's GPS location. An advertised job location is part of the job content.
When a job goes to Pitchly
Choosing Send to Pitchly or Practice AI Interview sends the selected job content and source URL to the Pitchly site shown as connected in the extension popup. Simply viewing a job does not send its URL or description to Pitchly.
Imported details are saved in that browser's Pitchly workspace. Review them before using later account-saving, application or AI features. The capture itself does not call an AI provider or submit a job application. Later Pitchly features follow the service's data-handling and processor notices and their applicable consent controls.
Your connected site and waiting jobs
Job Scout remembers the connected Pitchly site and browser tab on this device. Opening another supported Pitchly site in the focused window can change the connection; the popup shows the destination. Public production and staging sites use HTTPS. Approved localhost or 127.0.0.1 previews run on the same computer. A captured job is not redirected from its chosen site to another site.
Waiting imports, destination details, delivery identifiers and capture timestamps are stored in local Chrome extension storage. They survive browser restarts until the destination confirms saving each import. The extension then removes its waiting copy. An undelivered job has no automatic expiry. Extension-owned storage is separate from Pitchly website storage and account records.
Removing data
Removing Job Scout from Chrome removes its waiting imports and connection settings. Disabling the extension stops its activity but retains that storage. Clearing Pitchly website data or deleting a Pitchly account does not clear extension storage.
Removing the extension does not erase jobs already imported into Pitchly. Use Pitchly's account and data controls or the browser's site-data controls for those copies, and repeat on other devices or browser profiles where needed. Account and service retention, export and deletion are described in Pitchly's privacy notice.
Limited use of captured information
Pitchly's handling of information collected through Job Scout complies with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
- We do not sell or transfer captured user information to third parties outside approved uses.
- We do not use or transfer it for purposes unrelated to Job Scout's job preparation purpose.
- We do not use or transfer it to determine creditworthiness or for lending.
