Transparency Policy
Transparency Is a Product Decision, Not a Footer Link
At ApplyPro, privacy is not an afterthought. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what controls you have over your data.
We do not run ad-heavy experiences, and we do not build the product around data exploitation. The focus is helping you create stronger job applications with clear privacy boundaries.
Our objective is simple: provide powerful career tools while being direct and transparent about data handling.
