Clear, limited data handling.

Minimal collection

Job text is processed for analysis, anonymous usage data is measured, and rate limiting uses request metadata.

Third-party services

JobDecode relies on Gemini, Google Analytics, and AdSense to run analysis, understand usage, and support the free product.

User control

You can control cookies in your browser, manage saved account data, and contact JobDecode directly with privacy questions.

What JobDecode does

JobDecode analyzes pasted job listings and turns them into a more readable breakdown, including salary context, red and green flags, corporate jargon translations, and interview preparation cues.

Information we collect

  • Job listing text: Pasted listings are sent to the AI provider for analysis. They are not permanently stored on our servers for anonymous use.
  • Usage data: Google Analytics helps measure general product usage, including pages visited, time on site, and high-level device or browser data.
  • IP address: Request metadata is used for rate limiting and abuse prevention. It is not intentionally retained as part of a user-facing dataset.

Third-party services

Cookies and advertising

Cookies may be used by Google Analytics and Google AdSense to understand site usage and serve relevant advertising. You can manage cookie behavior through your browser settings, although disabling cookies may affect parts of the experience.

Data retention

Job listing text submitted for analysis is processed in real time. Anonymous sessions are not stored as permanent decode history. Account-based decode history can be retained so signed-in users can revisit prior results.

Children's privacy

JobDecode is not directed at children under 13, and the product is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children.
