How we handle your data

A plain-language summary of what SalaryScope AI collects, why we collect it, who we share it with, and what controls you have over your information.

1. Information we collect

To generate planning salary benchmarks and career reports, we collect a small, focused set of data:

Identity & contact
Your verified email address and the display name on your profile. We do not collect government IDs. Checkout may send a placeholder phone number to Cashfree because the payment API requires that field — we do not ask you for a phone number in the product.
Compensation details
Current role, city, years of experience, base salary, variable pay, and any equity or benefits you choose to enter when generating a report.
Resume content (optional)
If you upload a resume, we extract text from the PDF or DOCX to power resume intelligence features. We never publish your resume.
Usage analytics
Page, performance, and error metrics via Vercel Analytics, Speed Insights, and Sentry. We also record product funnel events (sign-in, checkout started, payment success, report generated) without salary amounts or resume text. No advertising pixels.

2. How we use your data

Generate your reports

Your role, city, experience, and compensation inputs are sent to our AI provider to produce your personalised salary benchmark, hike, and switch reports.

Improve the product

Aggregated, de-identified usage signals help us prioritise features. Your individual salary inputs are not published as a public observation table.

Account and billing

Your email and purchase history are used to send transactional receipts, downloadable invoices, and service notices about your account or a purchase. We do not operate a marketing email list today.


3. How we protect it

Practical safeguards we have in place today:

  • TLS 1.2+ encryption for all data in transit
  • Database encryption at rest via Supabase (Postgres + RLS policies)
  • Cashfree payment processing — we never see or store your card details
  • Server-side service-role keys are never exposed to the browser
  • Strict Row-Level Security so each user can only read and write their own data

No system is invulnerable. We disclose verifiable controls only — we do not claim certifications we do not hold.


4. Resume & salary privacy

Compensation and resume data are the most sensitive things a career platform handles. Our defaults are conservative.

No recruiter access

SalaryScope AI is not a job board. Recruiters cannot browse profiles, search resumes, or contact users through the platform.

Not indexed publicly

Resume content and salary inputs are never published, syndicated, or made discoverable by search engines.

Used for your report

Your intake is sent to the AI provider to draft your report. We do not claim that your numbers are pooled into a published, verified observation file.


5. Cookies & analytics

We use first-party session cookies plus Vercel Analytics, Speed Insights, and Sentry. Funnel events (sign-in, checkout, payment, report generated) do not include salary amounts or resume text. No advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

7. Retention & your rights

Personal data is retained while your account is active. Deactivating your account blocks sign-in immediately. Associated records stay available so support can restore access if you ask. Contact us if you want those records permanently removed — the product does not run an automated wipe job today. We do not publish your salary inputs as a public observation table.

Under the Indian DPDP Act and GDPR, you can exercise the following rights — email us and we will handle requests as promptly as we can:

  1. 01Right to access. Email us and we will help you access the account and report data associated with your login.
  2. 02Right to erasure. Deactivate your account from the dashboard. Sign-in is blocked immediately. Contact support if you want associated records permanently removed — there is no automated wipe timer in the product today.
  3. 03Right to rectification. Correct any inaccuracies in your profile or report inputs.
  4. 04Right to withdraw consent. Skip optional resume and letter uploads. Deactivate your account if you no longer want us to keep your profile.

8. Contact

Questions or requests regarding this policy can be sent to contact@salaryscopeai.com. We read every request and reply as promptly as we can.

We may update this policy as the product evolves. The current version is always the one published on this page.
