Privacy
In short
There are no accounts and no passwords. Jyntra stores the profile you give it so it can match jobs to you. It doesn't use ads or tracking, and it doesn't sell your data.
What is stored
- Your profile: skills, target roles, experience, preferred locations and startup types, optional links (GitHub, LinkedIn, portfolio), a short bio and your name if you add it.
- Your tracking: startups and jobs you save, application statuses and notes, pins, and outreach drafts and messages you record.
- A login cookie (
sf_uid): a random token that links this browser to your profile. Page scripts can't read it. The database keeps only a one-way hash of it, and signing out deletes that session on the server. - Browser storage on your device only: your theme, sidebar state and similar preferences.
Gmail app password (optional)
If you add a Gmail address and app password so Jyntra can send emails you confirm, the password is kept in your profile record in the database as plain text and is never sent back to your browser. Use a dedicated app password, not your account password, and remove it on My Profile when you no longer need it.
Your resume
If you upload a resume, the PDF is read in memory to suggest skills and roles, then discarded. The file is never saved. Only what you confirm becomes part of your profile.
Your private link
Your private link carries its own random token, separate from your login cookie, and the database keeps only a hash of it. Anyone with the link can open your profile, so keep it to yourself. Getting a new link on My Profile turns the old one off.
AI outreach
When you ask for an outreach draft, the startup's public details and the relevant parts of your profile are sent to the configured AI provider (Groq or Google Gemini) to write the draft. Don't put anything in your profile you wouldn't want processed that way.
Rate limiting
Your IP address is kept briefly in memory to limit how often requests can be made. It isn't written to the database.
Where data is hosted
The database is PostgreSQL (hosted on Neon, or wherever the operator of this deployment runs it).
Company information
Startup details, founder names and LinkedIn profiles come from public sources such as Y Combinator company pages. Company emails are shown only when the company publishes them on its own website.
Deleting your data
Signing out removes the cookie and the session. To have your profile and tracking deleted from the database, ask the operator of this deployment (see the Contact page).
