Job Application Tracker helps users capture and manage job applications while browsing job listings. The extension is local by design: job application records are stored in the user's Chrome profile and are not sent to a developer-controlled server.
When a user opens the toolbar popup on a normal webpage, the extension reads the active tab's page title and URL to prefill a job application form. The extension does this only in response to the user invoking the extension. The user may confirm or edit the company name, job title, and date applied and may later add a status and personal notes.
The extension stores the following information locally:
| Data | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Page title and URL | Prefill the source job listing and provide a link back to it. |
| Company, role, and date applied | Create the job application record. |
| Status, notes, and status-change time | Manage progress and calculate the 14-day Follow up flag. |
| Local Pro entitlement | Remember that a Gumroad license was verified on this Chrome profile. |
Users control what they enter into the Notes field and should avoid entering information they do not want stored on the device.
Job application records are stored using chrome.storage.local in the user's Chrome profile. TalentTrack does not operate a cloud database for this extension and cannot access these records. Records remain until the user deletes them in the extension, clears the extension's storage, or uninstalls the extension. The Settings page provides a Delete all applications control.
License verification occurs only when the user opens Settings, enters a license key, and clicks Verify and unlock Pro. The extension then sends the following information directly to Gumroad over HTTPS:
| Data sent to Gumroad | Purpose |
|---|---|
| User-entered Gumroad license key | Verify that the purchase is valid. |
| Fixed Gumroad Product ID | Confirm that the key belongs to the Pro product. |
increment_uses_count=false |
Verify without increasing Gumroad's usage count. |
The extension does not send job applications, notes, company names, job titles, source page titles, or source URLs to Gumroad. After successful verification, it stores only a SHA-256 fingerprint of the key, the key's last four characters, the Product ID, and the verification time. It does not retain the complete license key.
Gumroad may process the request and associated network metadata under Gumroad's Privacy Policy. TalentTrack does not receive the complete job application dataset through this verification flow.
TalentTrack does not sell job application data, use it for personalized advertising, transfer it to data brokers, use it to determine creditworthiness, or permit employees or contractors to read locally stored application records. The only routine third-party transfer initiated by the extension is the user-requested Gumroad license verification described above.
The extension uses HTTPS for Gumroad verification and ships all executable JavaScript and CSS inside the extension package. It does not load remotely hosted executable code. Users are responsible for protecting access to their Chrome profile and device.
