intervu is a job search tool. This page explains what we collect, why, and how you can control it. If anything here is unclear, use the contact page — we read every message ourselves.
What we collect
When you create an account, we collect the email address and profile information you provide. You can sign in with Google or with a username and password — Google-hosted sign-in is handled by Firebase Auth, so we never see or store your Google password.
Once you're using intervu, we store the things you create: your tracked applications, saved resumes, prep answers, and credit balance. This data lives in Google Cloud Firestore and is only ever accessed by our servers — never exposed directly to the browser or to other users.
The job listings you search are public information we collect from employers' own career pages. We don't collect anything about you from third parties, and we don't buy data about you from anyone.
How we use it
We use your account data to run the product: to show your tracked applications, keep your resumes and prep answers where you left them, and apply your credit balance when you use a paid feature. That's it — we don't use your data to train models, and we don't build advertising profiles.
AI processing
Some features — resume tailoring and interview prep critique — work by sending the relevant text (your resume, a job description, your prep answers) to an AI provider to generate a response. We use OpenRouter and Groq for this. That text is sent transiently to generate your result; it is not stored by us for any purpose beyond producing that response, and we don't use it to train anything. Each provider is bound by its own data-handling terms, which govern how they process the request while it's with them.
Cookies
We use a single cookie to keep you signed in. It's httpOnly (invisible to page scripts), lasts about 14 days, and identifies your session — nothing more. We don't run analytics scripts, ad trackers, or any third-party tracking pixels. No cookie on intervu follows you around the web.
Retention & deletion
We keep your data for as long as your account is active. You can delete your account and everything tied to it at any time from account settings — it's self-serve, not a support ticket. Deletion removes your profile, tracked applications, resumes, prep answers, and credit history from our systems.
Your choices
You control your data: edit or remove anything you've created, delete your account outright, or contact us with any question or request — including one we haven't anticipated here.
