The core privacy principles
- Keep sensitive practice data as local as possible.
- Explain clearly when transcript text leaves the device for scoring.
- Avoid unnecessary personal-data collection.
- Do not use practice data for advertising or cross-app tracking.
- Make the public explanation understandable without legal jargon.
What this means in practice
InterviewBuddy records spoken answers on your device. Recordings are not uploaded to InterviewBuddy's servers. Transcript text is processed so the scoring workflow can return feedback on your answer.
Scores, transcripts, and saved sessions are stored on device using the app's local data layer. If iCloud / CloudKit is available on your device, that data may also sync privately through your Apple account.
What InterviewBuddy does not do
- Require your name or email before you can start practicing.
- Sell user data.
- Use user data for ad targeting.
- Track you across other apps or websites.
