Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2026
This page explains what szn tracker ("we", "us") collects when you use szntracker.com, why, and what you can do about it.
What we collect
| Data | When | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Name, email, password | You create an account | Password is hashed (bcrypt) before storage — we never see or store your actual password. |
| Email + job you selected | You use "Notify me" | So we can let you know when applications open for that role. |
| Anonymous visit hash | Every page load | A one-way hash of your IP + browser, salted and rotated daily. We never store your raw IP address — the hash can't be reversed or linked across days. Used only for aggregate traffic counts. |
| Apply-click events | You click "Apply" on a listing | Which job, and when — not tied to your identity unless you're separately logged in elsewhere on the same request. |
| Saved / applied jobs | You save a listing or track an application (requires an account) | Stored against your account so your application tracker works across devices — visible only to you, never shared with employers or third parties. |
Cookies & third-party analytics
We use Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity to understand site usage. Both set their own cookies and have their own privacy policies (Google, Microsoft). On your first visit, a cookie banner lets you accept or decline these — they only load if you accept. You can change your choice at any time using the cookie preferences control on the page, or opt out entirely using your browser's cookie/tracking settings or extensions like uBlock Origin.
How long we keep it
Account data is kept until you ask us to delete it. Aggregate visit and apply-click data is kept indefinitely in anonymized/aggregate form to track site growth — it isn't linked to your identity.
Your rights
You can ask us to access, correct, or delete your account data at any time by emailing contact@szntracker.com. We don't currently have a self-service "delete my account" button in the product — email is the fastest way to get this done until we build one.
Who else sees this data
We don't sell your data. It's stored in a Postgres database hosted by Neon, deployed on Vercel — both process data on our behalf under their own security/compliance commitments. We don't share job seeker data with the employers listed on the site; applying to a job takes you directly to that employer's own application process, which has its own privacy practices.
Changes
If this policy changes materially, we'll update the "last updated" date above.
