Project Shield ("we", "our", or "the Service") is operated by Yumiko Morinaga. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how we protect it, and your choices regarding that information.
When you use Project Shield, we collect: (a) job opportunity emails you forward to your personal inbox address, which are parsed to extract job details; (b) your resume text, which you provide directly; (c) your stated preferences (target rate, availability, remote work preference); and (d) account information via Supabase Authentication, including your email address and, if you choose to sign in with Google, your basic Google profile information (name, email address, profile photo). Resume text and forwarded job email content may contain sensitive personal and professional information; we treat this data with the protections described in Section 3 below.
Project Shield offers "Continue with Google" as an optional way to sign in, in addition to email-based login. This uses only basic, non-sensitive profile scopes (openid, email, profile) to identify you. Project Shield does not request access to your Gmail inbox, does not read or send email on your behalf, and does not request any sensitive or restricted Google API scopes.
We apply the following safeguards to protect your information, including sensitive data such as your resume and forwarded job email content:
We use your information to: parse and score job opportunities against your preferences and resume; generate AI-drafted reply emails (which you copy and send yourself, or open pre-filled in your own email client); track your active projects and invoices; and authenticate you when you sign in.
We use the following third-party services to operate Project Shield: Supabase (database and authentication), OpenAI (email classification, job data extraction, and AI reply drafting), Mailgun (inbound email processing), Vercel (hosting), Stripe (payment processing for paid subscriptions), and Google (optional Sign-In only). Each of these providers processes data solely to provide their respective service to us, under their own security and privacy commitments.
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you request deletion of your account and associated data, we will delete it within 30 days, except where retention is required for legal, tax, or fraud-prevention purposes. You may request deletion at any time by contacting us at the email address below.
