Privacy Policy Ladders AI

What Our Privacy Policy Means for You

Look, privacy policies usually feel like a wall of text nobody wants to read. But on our platform, your career data is serious business. We want you to know exactly how we treat your info — from your resume to your job searches. It’s not just legal speak; it’s our promise to keep your data safe and private.

Our AI job matching and interview automation rely on your data to work well, but here’s the thing: we never just throw your information around. You control what’s visible, who can contact you, and how your job hunt stays discreet.

So, whether you’re uploading your CV or scheduling interviews through our system, the privacy policy explains what’s happening behind the scenes.

How Our AI Uses Your Data to Match Jobs and Schedule Interviews

Our AI doesn’t just spit out random jobs; it digs into your profile and behavior to find the best fits. From parsing your uploaded CV to scoring relevance, it’s all designed to save you time. Plus, with interview automation, you can schedule and manage interviews without the back-and-forth emails.

Here’s a quick overview of how it works:

• CV parsing extracts key skills and experience to build your profile automatically.
• Relevance scores rank job postings based on how well they match your background.
• AI-driven scheduling lets you pick interview times based on your and recruiters’ calendars.
• Automated interview flows guide you through each step, keeping everything organized.

Honestly, it’s designed to reduce your time-to-hire by up to 30%, based on our data. So, you spend less time juggling tasks and more time focusing on your next opportunity.

Keeping Your Job Search Confidential

One thing we hear a lot from users is the worry about current employers finding out they’re looking. That’s why our platform focuses on professional discretion.

You get three visibility settings to control who sees your profile and info:

• Public Profile: Open to all recruiters and employers on the platform.
• Limited Visibility: Only approved recruiters you select get access.
• Private Mode: You decide exactly who can view your info, keeping it hidden from everyone else.

Our privacy policy explains these in detail. From our experience, toggling these settings is straightforward and gives you peace of mind.

Third-Party Data Sharing and What It Means

We want to be upfront: some of your data does get shared—but only when it makes sense and with your consent. For example, if you apply to a job, your info goes to that employer’s applicant tracking system (ATS). We make sure those systems agree to protect your data.

The privacy policy lays out exactly when and why this happens. Importantly, we do not sell your info to marketing companies or recruiters. Recruiters pay for platform access, not your personal data.

Here’s a quick look at usual third-party data sharing scenarios:

Practical Tips for Managing Your Data and Privacy Settings

Honestly, one of the best things about our platform is how easy it is to control your data. You don’t have to guess or dig through complicated menus. Here’s how you can keep your info working for you, without sacrificing privacy:

1. Log in and go to your account settings.
2. Check your privacy preferences — especially visibility levels and communication permissions.
3. Review connected apps and integrations to make sure only what you want is linked.
4. Use the data export feature if you want a copy of everything we have on you.
5. If you want to delete your account, follow the deletion steps — your data will be removed within 30 days, except where legal reasons require otherwise.

We also recommend periodically reviewing these settings, especially if you’re actively job hunting or changing how you use the platform.

Security Measures That Protect Your Professional Data

We know how important security is — it’s not just about technology but also about who can access your info. Our platform uses strong encryption and secure servers to keep everything locked down.

Plus, employee access is tightly controlled and logged. Only team members with specific roles and reasons can see personal data, and everything is monitored to prevent misuse.

This multi-layered approach means your data is protected from unauthorized access both digitally and internally.

Cookies, Tracking, and Your Preferences

We use cookies to make your experience smoother. But here’s the breakdown:

• Essential cookies: Keep you logged in and remember your basic settings.
• Analytics cookies: Help us understand how to improve the platform based on real usage.
• Marketing cookies: Used for targeted job recommendations, but only with your consent.

You can adjust cookie preferences anytime through your browser or our platform’s settings. It’s all about making sure you’re comfortable with what’s collected.

Your Rights and How to Use Them with Ladders

Our privacy policy gives you clear rights over your data. You can access, correct, delete, export, restrict, or object to how we use your information. This isn’t just legal talk — it’s about giving you control.

If you want to exercise any of these rights, most of it can be done right from your account settings. For anything more complex, our privacy team is just a message away.

Here’s a quick overview:

• View all data we hold on you anytime.
• Fix anything that’s inaccurate or outdated.
• Request complete deletion of your personal info.
• Download your data in a format that’s easy to read.
• Limit how your data is processed for certain uses.
• Say no to specific data uses that don’t feel right.
