What Prospect is

Prospect is a job search tool in early access. It currently offers two features: a job fit evaluator (paste a job description and your CV to get an AI score across five dimensions) and a STAR story builder (turn rough interview answers into structured, compelling stories).

There are no user accounts. Your data is not linked to any identity unless you choose to join the waitlist.

What data we collect

If you use the tools without joining the waitlist, we collect only anonymous usage data:

  • An anonymous visitor ID stored in your browser (persists across sessions on the same device)
  • A session ID reset each time you open the page
  • Usage events: when you run an evaluation or generate a STAR story
  • Aggregate scoring data from the job evaluator (overall score, dimension scores)

This data cannot be linked back to you — it contains no name, email, or other identifying information.

If you join the waitlist, we additionally collect:

  • Your email address
  • Optional feedback: feature ratings, free-text comments, and whether you consent to being contacted

We use your email solely to notify you when Prospect launches and, only if you explicitly consented, to ask for product feedback. We will not send marketing email or share your address with third parties.

Your CV, job description, and interview answers

Content you paste into the tools is processed to generate results. Here is exactly what happens:

  • CV text — before any AI evaluation, your name, email address, and phone number are removed client-side. The AI receives an anonymous profile — it never sees who you are.
  • Job description — processed and scored by AI. Job descriptions are public documents containing no personal data.
  • Interview answers (STAR builder) — your answer is sent to the AI to generate a structured story. Answers typically describe work situations rather than identifying information, but if your answer contains personal details (names of colleagues, employers, etc.) those will be included in the AI request.
  • Nothing is stored — your CV text, job description, and interview answers are not saved to any database. They exist only for the duration of the API call and are discarded immediately after.

AI processing and Anthropic

Scoring, parsing, and story generation use the Anthropic Claude API. Anonymised experience data, job description text, and interview answer text are sent to Anthropic for processing.

Anthropic does not use API inputs to train its models. This policy applies to all API usage and is distinct from Anthropic's consumer product (Claude.ai), which has different terms. You can review Anthropic's API data usage policy at anthropic.com/legal/privacy.

Usage telemetry

Anonymous usage events are stored in Supabase (a hosted Postgres database in the EU). These records contain no personal data — only event types, scores, and the anonymous IDs described above.

Waitlist records (email and optional feedback) are also stored in Supabase.

This data is used solely to evaluate tool quality and inform product development.

Your rights (UK/EU GDPR)

Steve Bailey is the data controller for personal data processed by Prospect.

If you used the tools without joining the waitlist: usage telemetry is anonymous and cannot be linked back to you — there is no personal data to access or delete.

If you joined the waitlist: your email address is personal data, and you have the right to:

  • Access — request a copy of what we hold about you
  • Erasure — ask us to delete your waitlist record at any time
  • Rectification — ask us to correct inaccurate data
  • Withdraw consent — if you consented to being contacted for feedback, you can withdraw that consent at any time without affecting your waitlist place

To exercise any of these rights, contact bailey7780@gmail.com. We will respond within 30 days.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk) if you are in the UK, or your local supervisory authority if you are in the EU.

Cookies and local storage

We use your browser's localStorage to store your anonymous visitor ID. No tracking cookies are set. No third-party analytics or advertising trackers are used.

Data retention

Anonymous usage telemetry is retained for the duration of the early access period and reviewed before any public launch.

Waitlist email addresses are retained until Prospect launches or until you request deletion, whichever comes first. If you have not consented to contact and Prospect has not launched within 12 months of your sign-up, your record will be deleted.
