Privacy Policy

Last updated August 19, 2026

This policy explains what information HiLinq ("we", "us") collects when you use hilinq.com, why we collect it, and the choices you have. You can search and browse jobs on HiLinq without creating an account or giving us any personal information.

Information you provide

If you create an account, we collect the email address and password you sign up with. If you use optional features, we also store what you choose to give us:

  • Saved jobs, application status, and notes you add while tracking your job search
  • Search alert preferences (keywords, location, frequency)
  • Resume or profile details you upload, if you use autofill or profile features
  • Billing information, handled directly by our payment processor, Stripe — we don't see or store your card details

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, we automatically log standard technical information when you visit — IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and timestamps — used for security, debugging, and understanding overall site usage. We use cookies to keep you signed in and remember your preferences.

Advertising

HiLinq shows ads served by Google AdSense. Google and its advertising partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings, or generally at aboutads.info/choices. We don't control the cookies Google or its partners set, and this policy doesn't cover their practices — see how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Job listings

The job postings you see on HiLinq are pulled directly from company career pages. We don't control the content, accuracy, or availability of listings — when you click Apply, you leave HiLinq and apply directly on the employer's own site, subject to that employer's own privacy practices.

Browser extension

The HiLinq browser extension has its own, narrower data practices — see the extension privacy page for details on what it reads and sends.

How we use your information

  • To provide the account features you use — saving jobs, tracking applications, sending alerts
  • To operate, secure, and improve the site
  • To communicate with you about your account or in response to a message you send us

We don't sell your personal information.

Your choices

You can update or delete your saved jobs, alerts, and profile information from your account at any time. To delete your account entirely, contact us at [email protected].

Children's privacy

HiLinq is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them.

Changes to this policy

If we make material changes to this policy, we'll update the date at the top of this page. Continued use of HiLinq after a change means you accept the updated policy.
