This page needs the confirmations highlighted below before public launch. It does not confirm the live app’s data practices or replace any privacy notice currently supplied by the app.
1. Who we are and what this covers
This draft covers the MyCareerMap.ai website and the career planning, CV analysis, CV building, and cover letter features at app.mycareermap.ai.
To confirm: the legal name and address of the business operating MyCareerMap.ai, its privacy contact email, and any applicable representative or data protection officer details.
2. Information used by the service
Depending on the features you use, relevant information may include account and contact details; employment history, education, skills and career goals; CVs, cover letters and other text you submit; and generated maps, feedback and documents. Avoid including another person’s details or sensitive information unless necessary.
To confirm: the fields actually collected, technical logs, support records, payment records, any data obtained from other sources, and which fields are required to use each feature.
3. Purposes and lawful bases
The intended service uses career information to produce maps, review CVs and help prepare applications. Account administration, paid subscriptions, support, security and optional marketing require separate consideration.
To confirm: map each actual purpose to an appropriate lawful basis before adopting this notice. Record any legitimate interests, optional consent choices, and any legal record-keeping obligations. Confirm the consequences of not providing required information.
4. AI features and who receives information
AI-assisted career suggestions and document feedback can be inaccurate. Review them before relying on them, and check that generated application content reflects your actual experience.
To confirm: name or describe the AI, hosting, payment, email and other providers that receive personal information, what they receive, and why. Confirm whether submitted content is retained or used for model training, the controls available, and whether any processing involves profiling or decisions with significant effects. This draft makes no promise that AI providers do not retain or train on content.
5. Storage, transfers and retention
To confirm: storage countries and any international access, the applicable transfer safeguards and how to obtain them, security measures, and retention periods or specific criteria for accounts, uploaded CVs, generated content, logs, billing records and backups. Describe what happens after an account deletion request, including exceptions and backup deletion timings.
7. Your privacy rights
Depending on the circumstances, UK data protection law gives you rights to access, correct, delete, restrict use of, and receive a portable copy of your personal information. You can withdraw consent where processing relies on it.
Your right to object: you can object to direct marketing, and may object to processing based on legitimate interests.
To confirm: add the verified privacy contact and the process for making requests or withdrawing consent.
You can also raise a concern with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint.
