01 Summary
The Apply To It extension exists to help job seekers save job postings they view on supported sites and use those saved postings inside the Apply To It web app. This lets you track your job search, return to postings later, and compare resumes against job descriptions.
The extension is designed to work on supported job posting pages. It reads the role-describing content needed to identify and save the job, then sends that information to your Apply To It account.
In one line
We collect job-posting data you view on supported sites to provide and improve Apply To It’s job tracking, resume comparison, and job-search insight features.
02 What the extension accesses
When you open a job posting on a supported site, the extension reads visible, role-describing content from that page. This may include:
| Data | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Job title & company | Identify the posting in your job search history. |
| Description & requirements | Run resume comparison, fit scoring, summaries, and job-search insights. |
| Location, work type & salary range | Provide context for the role, when the posting lists this information. |
| Posting link & source site | Let you return to the original posting. |
| Page URL of the posting | De-duplicate captured jobs and link saved jobs back to their source. |
This data is sent over an encrypted connection to your Apply To It account. AI-powered features may send relevant job description text, resume content, and related context to our AI provider strictly to generate your result. See AI processing.
03 Permissions, explained
The extension requests the permissions it needs to provide its user-facing features:
- Access to supported job sites — to read job posting content on pages you open there. Supported sites currently include LinkedIn, Indeed, and ZipRecruiter, with additional job posting sites added during alpha.
- Active tab / scripting — to read the current job posting when you are viewing one and use the extension.
- Tab & navigation access — to detect when the page you are on is a supported job posting, follow in-page (single-page-app) navigation on those sites so a job you click is recognized, and show whether the extension is active or idle. This is used only to recognize supported job pages — it is not used to read or collect your general browsing history.
- Storage — to keep you signed in, remember extension settings, and support the extension’s normal operation.
We request access for supported job search and job posting sites. We do not request access to all websites for general browsing collection.
04 What it never does
Never reads your general browsing history or captures page content from unrelated, non-supported sites.
Never captures passwords, payment details, or text you type into login forms.
Never captures page content in the background from unrelated sites.
Never sells your data or uses it for advertising or ad targeting.
Never applies to jobs, contacts employers, or makes employment decisions for you.
