Information you give us
- Account information, such as your name, email address, and optional profile photo.
- Your resume, career profile, qualifications, preferences, and other details you choose to add.
- Jobs, searches, alerts, and notification preferences you save.
- Messages you send to our support team.
If you sign in through another account provider, we receive the basic account information you approve. We never receive that account’s password.

- Provide and personalize job search, matching, saved jobs, alerts, and account features.
- Create and maintain the career profile you choose to use.
- Support application features when you ask us to use them.
- Send account messages, security notices, and notifications you enable.
- Respond to support requests, prevent misuse, and improve the reliability of Owl Hired.
We do not sell your personal information or use your resume to train our models.
Resume assistance and applications
When you choose AI-assisted resume import, the relevant contents of your resume are processed to create a draft for your review. Automated suggestions may be incomplete or incorrect, and you remain in control of what you save.
Uploading a resume does not by itself send it to an employer. Information is shared for an application only when you direct OwlApply to apply, or when you enable an automated application feature under the settings you select.
Automatic information and cookies
We collect limited information about how the service is accessed and used, such as browser information, request activity, and security events. This helps us keep accounts secure, understand service performance, and prevent abuse.
We use a session cookie to keep you signed in and may remember preferences such as theme, currency, and search settings. We do not currently use advertising cookies.
When information may be shared
- With trusted service providers that help us operate Owl Hired, subject to appropriate protections.
- With employers and application websites when you use OwlApply as described above.
- When required by law, or when reasonably necessary to protect users, Owl Hired, or others.
- As part of a business reorganization, with notice and continued protection of your information.
Job and application websites have their own privacy practices. Please review them before submitting an application.
