Privacy Policy — ATSFixer Job Summarizer
This policy explains how the ATSFixer Job Summarizer Chrome extension (the "Extension") handles data. The Extension reads a job posting you choose, shows you a structured summary of it, and can open that summary in the ATSFixer web app so you can tailor your resume to the job. When you use the ATSFixer web app itself, the main ATSFixer Privacy Policy applies.
In short: the Extension needs no account and collects no personal information. It reads a page only when you click its icon. Job-posting text is sent to ATSFixer only to fill in fields the page didn't provide, and you can turn that off. We don't sell data, show ads, or track your browsing.
1. What the Extension reads
When you click the Extension's icon, it reads the content of the current tab only to find the job posting: job title, company, location, company description, responsibilities, requirements, skills, benefits and similar details. It does not run on pages you haven't clicked it on and does not read other tabs, your browsing history, cookies, passwords or form inputs.
2. What stays on your device
The following is stored locally in your browser (chrome.storage.local). Only the install ID is ever sent to us, and only with an AI-fill request (section 3):
- Summaries you've viewed — kept for 24 hours (up to 40 jobs) so reopening the same posting is instant. They expire automatically, and you can clear them anytime in the Extension's Options.
- Your settings — whether AI fill is on, and your light/dark theme choice.
- A random install ID — a random number generated on install. It identifies nothing about you; it is only used to apply the daily AI-fill limit (see section 3).
3. What is sent to ATSFixer, and why
Many job pages are summarized entirely on your device. When a page is missing required fields, or they couldn't be read reliably (common on LinkedIn), and AI fill is on (the default), the Extension sends the following over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection to ATSFixer's server:
| Data | Purpose |
|---|---|
| The job posting's text (up to 24,000 characters) | To extract the missing fields |
| Fields already found on the page (e.g. job title, company) — never page URLs | Context, so the result is consistent |
| The random install ID | To enforce a fair-use limit (currently 25 AI fills per day) |
| Your IP address (seen by any web server) | Abuse prevention: a daily request limit per network, kept in memory and reset daily |
Our server passes the job text to our AI provider, Anthropic (Claude API), which returns the extracted fields. We do not store the job text or the result on our servers. Our server logs keep only operational information, such as request counts and processing time, without the job content. Anthropic processes the text under its commercial terms and does not use API inputs to train its models.
Turning off "Use ATSFixer AI to fill fields the page didn't provide" in Options stops all of the above. The Extension then works fully on your device.
4. "Tailor my resume" and the clipboard
- When you click Tailor my resume, the Extension opens the ATSFixer web app (app.atsfixer.com) in a new tab with the job summary placed in the link after the
#sign. Your browser does not send that part of a link to any server; the web app reads it on your device to fill its job-description field. Benefits are never included. What you then do in the web app is covered by the ATSFixer Privacy Policy. - Copy and Tailor my resume write the summary to your clipboard so you can paste it. The Extension never reads your clipboard.
5. What we don't do
- We don't collect your name, email, browsing history, page URLs, location, or any account information.
- We don't sell or rent data, use it for advertising, or share it with data brokers.
- We don't use analytics, tracking pixels or third-party trackers in the Extension.
- We don't use data to determine creditworthiness or for lending.
- No person at ATSFixer reads the job text sent for AI fill, except as needed for security, to investigate abuse, or to comply with the law.
6. Chrome Web Store Limited Use
The use of information received from the ATSFixer Job Summarizer extension adheres to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We use this information only to provide the Extension's single purpose — summarizing the job posting you choose and helping you tailor your resume to it — and for related security and abuse prevention.
7. Service providers
- Anthropic — AI processing of job text for AI fill.
- Vercel and Render — hosting that receives and routes requests to our server.
These providers process data only to provide their service to us.
8. Retention and deletion
- Local summaries expire after 24 hours; Options → Clear cache removes them immediately.
- Uninstalling the Extension deletes everything it stored on your device.
- Job text sent for AI fill is not retained on our servers. Daily rate-limit counters are kept in memory and reset every day.
9. Children
The Extension is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
10. Changes
If we change how the Extension handles data, we will update this page and the "Last updated" date. Material changes will be disclosed in the Extension before they take effect.
