Privacy Policy

StarPlan ("we", "us") helps companies discover AI engineers through a curated talent marketplace. This page explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, and the controls you have over it. If you have questions, write to hello@starplan.ai.

1. Information we collect

• Candidate profile data — name, email, current role, years of experience, location, summary, links (LinkedIn, GitHub), self-declared skills and industries, and an uploaded resume file.
• Company / enterprise data — company name, contact details, plan choice, invitation lists, and authentication credentials.
• Operational logs — IP address, user agent, request paths, and timestamps used for debugging, abuse prevention, and billing.

2. Why we use it

• To display public candidate profiles in the talent pool so companies can discover engineers.
• To invoice enterprise customers and meter sandbox / OpenAI usage.
• To respond to support and sales inquiries.
• To detect fraud and abuse.

3. Who can see your information

• Marketplace profiles. If you create a candidate profile, your name, role, summary, skills, industries, years of experience, and optional Star badge can be viewed by registered in-house hiring teams and recruiter accounts with an active talent-pool subscription. Candidate account pages are not public or indexed.
• Resume. Your resume file is available only through registered Hiring Team access or an active recruiter talent-pool subscription. It is not indexed publicly.
• Email and phone. These can be shown inside an entitled, unlocked recruiter view. The Hiring Agent contacts you through StarPlan without exposing these fields in its profile drawer. We never sell contact data.
• Enterprise (private) submissions. Submissions made with a company invitation code are visible only to that company and never appear in the public talent pool.

4. Data we share with third parties

• OpenAI — profile information may be processed to provide AI career coaching, evaluation, and hiring assistance.
• Stripe — recruiter subscriptions, placement fees, and enterprise plans are processed by Stripe. We never see your full card number.
• Google — if you sign in with Google, Google receives a sign-in event and shares your basic profile (name, email, photo) with us.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share it with advertisers.

5. Retention

We keep candidate profiles for as long as your account is active. Sales / contact inquiries are kept for up to 24 months so we can follow up. Sign-in-code security records are kept for up to 7 days, and operational logs are kept for up to 90 days.

6. Your rights

Depending on where you live (EU, UK, California, and others) you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal information, and to object to certain processing. To make a request, email hello@starplan.ai. We will respond within 30 days.

7. Security

We use access controls and secure service credentials to protect candidate information. Email sign-in codes are short-lived and single-use. No system is perfectly secure; if you discover a vulnerability please report it to hello@starplan.ai.

8. Children

StarPlan is not directed at people under 16. If you believe a minor has submitted personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

9. Changes

We may update this policy as the product evolves. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent change. Material changes will be announced on the homepage.
