Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 1, 2025

This Privacy Policy describes how Hoops ("we", "us", or "our") handles your information when you use our Chrome Extension.

1. Data Collection & Storage

We do not transmit your personal data to any external servers.

Hoops operates almost entirely locally on your device. All data processing happens within your browser.

Local Storage

To provide advanced features, Hoops stores the following information locally on your computer using Chrome's storage.local API:

• Resume Context: Any text you paste into the "Resume Context" field in the settings.
• Saved Jobs: A list of job applications you have explicitly saved using the "Save Job" button.

This data remains on your device and is never synchronized to our servers or third parties. You can clear this data at any time via the extension settings.

2. Permissions

The extension requires specific permissions to function:

• Site Access (All URLs): To automatically detect job application forms on various ATS platforms (like Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby) and identify mandatory subjective questions. The interface only appears when a supported platform or relevant questions are detected.
• storage: To save your resume context and job application history locally on your device.
• clipboardWrite: To allow you to copy the extracted questions and generated prompts to your clipboard.

3. Third-Party Services

We do not use any third-party analytics or tracking services.

The extension contains links to Ko-fi for voluntary donations. Interacting with these links is subject to Ko-fi's own privacy policy.

4. Changes to This Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.

5. Contact Us

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us via the Chrome Web Store support page.
