Privacy

New Hire is a hackathon project. This page explains what data the app handles, in plain language. The short version: there are no accounts, no analytics, no cookies, and no marketing emails.

What stays on your device

• Your team graph(employees, skills, tasks, chat history) is stored in your browser's localStorage. Clearing site data removes it.
• Your Anthropic API key, if you provide one (BYOK), is stored only in your browser's localStorage. It is sent to our server in a request header so we can forward your requests to Anthropic. We do not log it, persist it, or share it.
• Theme and UI preferences are stored inlocalStorage.

What we send to third parties

• Anthropic— every job description, company description, skill, task, and chat message you submit is sent to Anthropic's API to generate a response. Anthropic's own privacy and data-use terms apply to that traffic.
• Cloudflare — the app is hosted on Cloudflare Workers. Cloudflare receives standard request metadata (IP, user agent, timestamp) for routing and abuse protection.
• YC Jobs / external URLs— when you paste a URL into the "Hire" dialog, our server uses Anthropic'sweb_fetch tool to retrieve the page. The URL and its fetched content go to Anthropic.

What we do not do

• No analytics, telemetry, or session-replay tools.
• No cookies beyond what your browser sets by default.
• No advertising trackers.
• No selling, sharing, or licensing of your data.

Logs

Cloudflare keeps short-lived edge logs for operational purposes (rate limiting, error diagnostics). We do not log API keys, prompts, or responses to durable storage.

Don't paste secrets

New Hire is a beta tool. Please do not paste sensitive personal information, credentials, or anything you wouldn't want shared with Anthropic into the app.
