Privacy Policy

Last updated: 6 October 2026

EmpowermentApplyF LTD (“we,” “our,” or “us”), a company based in Nigeria, is committed to protecting your privacy. EmpowermentApplyF LTD is the controller of the personal information described in this Privacy Policy, except where you joined through an organisation (see “Organisations and White-Label Services”). This Privacy Policy explains how your personal information is collected, used, and disclosed by EmpowermentApplyF LTD.

This Privacy Policy applies to our website, https://empowermentapplyf.local, and its associated subdomains (collectively, our “Service”) alongside our application, EmpowermentApplyF LTD. By accessing or using our Service, you signify that you have read, understood, and agree to our collection, storage, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service, except where this Privacy Policy says we ask for your consent separately.

What Information Do We Collect?

We collect information when you create an account, build your profile, upload a CV, or ask us to fill or submit an application. It falls into three groups.

Account and contact information

Name, email address, phone number and location
Sign-in details, subscription and billing records
The organisation that invited you, if you joined through one (see “Organisations and White-Label Services” below)

Application facts — the information employers' application forms ask for, which you give us so that we can answer those forms:

Your CV and work history, education, skills, and languages and your level in each
Salary expectations, notice period, preferred work arrangement, and willingness to relocate and to travel
Whether you hold a driver's licence
Date of birth
Citizenship(s) and immigration or work-authorization status, including visa type and expiry where relevant
Security clearance
Willingness to undergo background checks and drug tests
Job preferences and the searches you ask us to run

Self-identification answers you choose to give

Gender and pronouns
Gender identity (whether your gender is the same as the sex you were registered at birth)
Sexual orientation
Race and ethnicity
Religion or belief
Disability status
Veteran status
Marital status
Criminal history

These are special categories of personal data in the UK and EU and sensitive personal information under US state privacy laws. We collect them only with your explicit consent, as described in the next section, and you can decline or withdraw at any time.

We also collect the usage and device information described under “Cookies” and “Marketing Attribution” below.

Self-Identification Answers and Your Consent

Some application forms ask about gender, gender identity (whether your gender is the same as the sex you were registered at birth), sexual orientation, race or ethnicity, religion or belief, disability, veteran status, marital status, pronouns and criminal history. Before you can enter any of these in your profile, we ask you separately, in the app, whether we may use your answers. Nothing is pre-selected, and this consent is separate from your acceptance of this Privacy Policy and the Terms of Service. You can give it, or decline, from your profile at any time.

If you decline, or leave any individual answer as “Prefer not to say”, we answer “Prefer not to say” (or the form's equivalent decline option) wherever an application asks, and we store nothing further for that question.

You can withdraw your consent at any time from your profile. Withdrawing sets every self-identification answer to “Prefer not to say”, and applications we complete afterwards answer that way. Withdrawal does not affect applications that have already been submitted to an employer. We record the date of your decision and the version of this Privacy Policy in force when you made it.

Criminal-history information is processed under Schedule 1 of the UK Data Protection Act 2018 and Article 10 of the UK and EU GDPR on the basis of your explicit consent, and only to relay your own answer to an employer's question.

We never infer any of these characteristics from your name, photograph, location, education, work history or any other data. We use them only as described in “How We Use Application Answers” below.

How Do We Use The Information We Collect?

Automating Job Applications: Use your provided information to automatically complete job applications on your behalf.
Personalizing Your Experience: Tailor application suggestions based on your profile.
Improving Our Service: Use analytics to understand user engagement and enhance the app's functionality.
Running Your Account: Billing, support, security, fraud prevention, and service emails.

Legal Bases for Processing

Where data protection law requires a legal basis (for example in the UK, the EU and Nigeria), we rely on:

Contract — to provide the Service you signed up for: your account, your profile and the applications you ask us to complete.
Explicit consent — for self-identification answers, and for marketing cookies and attribution where the law requires consent. You can withdraw consent at any time.
Legitimate interests — to keep the Service secure, prevent fraud, fix errors and understand how the Service is used, where those interests are not overridden by your rights.
Legal obligation — to keep billing and tax records and to respond to lawful requests.

Automated Processing

The Service uses software and AI to fill application forms for you from your profile. We do not use it to make decisions about you that have legal or similarly significant effects. Hiring decisions are made by the employers you apply to, under their own policies.

How We Use Application Answers

We use your application facts and your self-identification answers for one purpose: to complete the applications you ask us to submit, by filling the employer's form from your profile. We do not use them for our own decisions about you, to score or rank you, for advertising, or to build a profile of you for any other purpose.

When a form asks a question your profile cannot answer, we leave the field blank. If that field is required, the application may be skipped rather than answered on your behalf without a stored fact. You can add the missing fact to your profile and apply again.

Third-Party Services

We share your information with the following third parties, and only for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy:

Employers' application systems you apply to. When we complete an application for you, your application facts and any self-identification answers the form asks for are submitted to the employer, or to the applicant tracking system the employer uses, exactly as you would submit them yourself. From that point the employer is responsible for that information under its own privacy policy.
An AI model provider (OpenAI). To draft answers to application questions, we send OpenAI the question and the relevant parts of your profile, which include your self-identification answers when you have given them. OpenAI processes this data on our behalf and is bound by its API terms not to use it to train its models.
Our hosting and database providers, which store and process your information on our behalf under contracts that restrict their use of it to providing those services to us.
Cloud browser providers, which run the browser sessions in which we fill application forms for you (for example Browserbase). The information entered into a form passes through these sessions.
Payment providers (Paddle and Dodo Payments), which process your payments. We never receive or store your full card details.
Email delivery (Resend), which sends our account and service emails.
Error monitoring (Sentry), which receives technical error reports that may include your account identifier.
CAPTCHA-solving services, which receive only the CAPTCHA challenge shown on an application page, not your profile.
Analytics and advertising tools on our website, described under “Cookies” below.

We do not sell your personal information. We never share your self-identification answers with analytics or advertising providers. We may disclose information where required by law, to protect our rights or users, or to a buyer or successor if our business is sold or reorganised, in which case this Privacy Policy will continue to apply to your information.

We may also display, include or make available third-party content or links to third-party websites or services. EmpowermentApplyF LTD is not responsible for those third parties, including the accuracy, timeliness or quality of what they provide; such links are provided solely for your convenience.

Organisations and White-Label Services

You may join EmpowermentApplyF through an organisation — an agency, an employer or a partner — that invites you and may offer the Service under its own name. In that case, the organisation's administrators can view and edit your profile, including the self-identification answers you have given, in order to support your applications. The organisation is the controller of that processing, and EmpowermentApplyF LTD processes your information on its instructions under a data processing agreement with it. The organisation's own privacy notice tells you how it uses your information.

Only you can give or withdraw consent to the use of your self-identification answers. An organisation's administrator cannot give or withdraw it for you, and cannot enter those answers unless you have given consent.

How Do We Use Your Email Address?

We use your email address to run your account and to send you service emails, such as application updates, billing and security notices. We may also send you product news and offers; you can unsubscribe from these at any time using the link in each email, and you will still receive service emails. We only use your email address to show you our ads on other sites if you have agreed to that.

How Long Do We Keep Your Information?

We retain your information only as long as it is needed to provide EmpowermentApplyF LTD to you and fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. When we no longer need your information and are not required to keep it to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, we will either remove it from our systems or anonymize it so that it no longer identifies you.

Each time we generate an answer to an application question, we keep a record of that answer together with your profile as it was at that moment. We keep these records for 90 days so that we can review the quality and safety of the answers we give, and then delete them.

Your profile, including your self-identification answers, is deleted when you delete your account or when you ask us to delete it.

How Do We Protect Your Information?

We implement various security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information. Information is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest in our database, and is accessible only to authorised personnel who need it to provide the Service and are required to keep it confidential. Card details are handled by our payment providers and are never stored by us. If a personal data breach affects you, we will notify you and the relevant authorities where the law requires it.

Please note, while we strive to protect your data, no method of electronic storage or transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

International Transfers

We and our service providers process information in several countries, including the United States, the European Union and Nigeria. When we transfer personal information out of the UK, the EU or Nigeria, we rely on the safeguards the law provides, such as Standard Contractual Clauses in our agreements with service providers.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you have some or all of the following rights over your personal information:

Access — to obtain a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
Correction — to have inaccurate or incomplete information corrected. You can edit your profile directly in the app at any time.
Deletion — to have your personal information deleted. You can delete your account from your account settings, or ask us.
Portability — to receive the information you gave us in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
Withdraw consent — where we rely on your consent, including for self-identification answers, to withdraw it at any time without affecting processing that took place before you withdrew.
Object and restrict — to object to, or ask us to restrict, processing of your personal information in the circumstances provided by law.

If you are a California resident, you also have the right to know what personal information we collect, use and disclose, the right to delete it, and the right to limit our use and disclosure of your sensitive personal information to what is necessary to provide the Service. We use self-identification answers only to complete the applications you ask us to submit, and you can limit or withdraw that use from your profile at any time. We do not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@empowermentapplyf.local. We may need to verify your identity before acting on your request. We will respond within the period required by applicable law. You also have the right to complain to a data protection authority: in Nigeria, the Nigeria Data Protection Commission; in the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office; in the EU, the authority in your country. We would appreciate the chance to address your concern first. If you joined through an organisation, you can also exercise these rights with that organisation.

Your Consent

By using our site, registering an account, or using our app, you accept this Privacy Policy as it applies to your account and contact information and your application facts. Consent to the use of your self-identification answers is not given by using the Service: it is given separately, in the app, as described in “Self-Identification Answers and Your Consent” above, and you can decline or withdraw it at any time.

Links to Other Websites

This Privacy Policy applies only to EmpowermentApplyF LTD. The Service may contain links to other websites not operated or controlled by us. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or opinions expressed on such websites. Your browsing and interaction on any other website, including those linked on our platform, is subject to that website's own rules and policies.

Cookies

EmpowermentApplyF LTD uses cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, understand how our website is used, and measure our advertising. On our own website (not on organisations' white-label sites) we use:

Google Analytics — to understand how visitors use our website.
Google Ads — to measure whether our ads lead to sign-ups (see “Advertising” below).
Microsoft Clarity — to see how people use our pages, including recordings of page interactions, so we can fix problems. Profile and application pages are masked so that their contents are not recorded.
HubSpot — for website chat and contact forms.
Trustpilot — to show our customer reviews.
Vercel Speed Insights — to measure page performance.

Most web browsers can be set to block or delete cookies, but parts of the Service may not work without them. We do not place your profile information in cookies.

Marketing Attribution

We collect information about how you found EmpowermentApplyF to understand which marketing channels are most effective. This includes the referring website (e.g., Google or LinkedIn), campaign details from the link you clicked, and the first page you visited on our site. We may also ask you a one-time survey question during signup. This data is stored using secure first-party cookies.

For users in the EU, UK, or EEA, we only record this information with your explicit consent. We do not sell this data, share it with third-party advertisers, or use it for profiling. You can manage your data or request deletion at any time by contacting us at hello@empowermentapplyf.local.

Advertising

We use the Google Ads tag on our website to measure whether our ads lead to sign-ups, and we may use it to show our ads to people who have visited our website. Google may use cookies for this under its own privacy policy. You can turn off personalised ads at adssettings.google.com. We never use your profile or self-identification answers for advertising.

Children's Privacy

The Service is intended for people aged 16 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If we become aware that we have, we will delete it.

Changes To Our Privacy Policy

If we update this Privacy Policy, we will post the new version on this page and update the date at the top. If a change is significant, we will also tell you by email or in the app before it takes effect. If a change affects how we use your self-identification answers, we will ask for your consent again.
